I don't want to hijack the other thread. But I think the best action you can take is generate some publicity from the media.

Go to Engadget. http://www.engadget.com/

There should be a red 'Tip US' on the right hand side of the webpage. Let the problem get on the main page of Engadget.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] booma428:
Doing what I can, email sent! However I don't think LG or Nvidia gives a damn about the g2x much less its customers..LG has several other products/divisions. Lg has and will lose several future customers by their lack of support which is sad because of the potential of the G2X given the proper developer support. I for one will not buy another lg product and will recommend that any friends/family stay away from Lg/Nvidia products.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mjm128:
Email sent. What I really think we need to do is to band together as one rom developing community and create a list of acceptable products for those interested in modding their devices.

Imagine the impact this could have if we have a plain as day list on xda and/or cyanogenmod. Manufactures might look more into making sure they actually serve their customers.

Maybe, Maybe not. What happens if a bunch of people NEVER buy another nvidia chip until they change their stance? What happens if the developer community uses their influence and makes sure that friends/family they know don't buy nvidia powered android phones? They're going to lose money. It's in their best interest.

I've got to hand it to samsung because they are a fine example of really dealing with the community correctly. They're probably one of the most developer friendly android suppliers and look where they are at!

Nvidia comment on drivers. So is LG holding the source code for the drivers back!?

We will know, that Nvidia will never release the source code :/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] [0_0]:
You are totally crazy!!!

Source code is a business confidential information and no one need to open it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chisleu:
lol. you are a winner.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mac208x:
Is there a policy they have or something that's keeping them from giving us the code? I mean if there is not isn't there like a customer rights bureau that we could report to?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mjm128:
No...They have the right to withhold the source code. However, if they were to promise you the source code and then not make good on that promise, then you could.

They have the right to withhold and we have the right to withhold cash from going to them or ever buying one of their products again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
Hopefully LG will give us a response, like nvidia did
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:
Nvidia has proprietary drivers, meaning they own them and they can do what ever they want, if their driver were part of the GPL which regulates more of the open source they have to release the code.

Nvidia doesn't have to release anything if they don't want, but as customers we can ask, and "if" they want they'll release them.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] opethfan3:
I was thinking that maybe Nvidia is batting the blame to LG as to avoid the backlash for not open sourcing.

Both NV and AMD are known for not being too willing to release code for their hardware in Linux, due to the risk of competition seeing things that should be private.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
then they should give it to CyanogenMod Team with a contract they sign or something lol...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] opethfan3:
Well, there are always binary blobs
[T-Mobile LG G2x] McRabbi:
LG is responsible for supporting their own device. Obviously Nvidia provided everything to LG that they needed in the beginning. LG are the ones that modified the Android source to get it to work on the device they developed. So it is their responsibility to release those modifications.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] raydm:
does qualcom or htc provide those binaries on there hardware ? if yes why we dont have working hw acceleration on any htc phone yet ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dmj2012:
Given their history and internal policies, I don't think NV are going to release anything. A better effort would be to focus on a more likely goal - getting LG to release ICS for the G2x. I'm not dev, but my understanding is that as long as there's an official build then the guys here at xda and the CM team will have something to work with in the absence of actual source code.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeremyritzmann:
I'm assuming that these guys at LG received the actual sourcecode, then their devs were responsible for utilizing via their own proprietary driver sets. Sound right?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:
Nvidia doesn't release their HAL drivers, which are the proprietary drivers Nvidia own and that are not being released by Nvidia, this are the drivers that are actually needed to get things going.

Texas Instrument and Qualcom release their code every time they release a new SOC.

I was thinking about getting a g2x for my bday ( today :D ) then I was this thread.....its bothering me but I might still get one.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Azuske:
im sure you can find a better device. G2X has too many issues on every rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aquariumdrinker:
I agree. The G2x would still be a worthy phone despite its problems if there weren't several excellent alternatives out there. But there are several excellent alternatives out there.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] V1ViD:
I like the G2X. I came from a HTC HD7 & Samsung Vibrant, compared to both phones I absolutely love this one, build quality is amazing. Although I do love WP7 I missed all the customization of Android.

Now, if you're getting a brand new G2X. Don't do it, that would just be stupid. No offense, but the phone is 6 months old and you could get a much better phone now. If you're not getting it brand new, then i highly suggest the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TerryMathews:
The G2x has issues. If you're willing to root and play around with roms it can be a good phone.

A phone with issues is a two-edged sword. If you are patient and do some lowballing, you can score a G2x for far less than comparable phones. I paid $125 for mine with all original accessories box and a second battery.

I think ICS is going to drive the value of these phones back up so if you want a good deal don't procrastinate.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
lol wow im really loving this community...thanks for all the responses.

i am most definitely not buying the G2x brand new, it will be pre owned for a good price.

im willing to battle any problems / bugs, i have ok intelligence of android and all that. (owned an hd2 and that thing had 99 problems:rolleyes:)

its basically a slight upgrade, selling my vibrant plus a few more bucks will get me a G2x so i think its worth the upgrade.

Might be that he meant for you to select the "Request for Inquiry" option:

"This page is to ask questions or request inquiries on the LG-released open source software.

Since this thread is based on sending requests to nVidia for their code and it was released that the ball is in LG's court, perhaps he meant to point some people in the right direction?

Did you check the link? Or just randomly respond?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Simer03:
Well yeah, they haven't created an ICS source yet....they can't release what's not available! And yes, there's a "request" option, did u read the link? Cuz it doesn't seem like it

In ICS that damn 15% battery warning sound is still there to make us jump out of our skins every day and create a psychological aversion against Android to every user.

It honestly beggars belief that Google are so out of touch as to not comprehend this issue.

Hey Google! Humans don't like things that scare or annoy them. Ergo humans don't like Android for this!

Any ideas of a fix? I am seriously considering Windows Phone 7.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Helpful replies only please. Seems several other people are bothered enough by this to have starred it as an issue in Google Code. Please do the same if you agree:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oscillik:
If that first Google Code issue is correct, that the sound plays at full volume even while in mid-call, then I can actually understand your frustration with this, and I apologise for being glib.

I have never experienced it during a call, so that would explain my ignorance on the matter.

That would be most annoying to happen mid-call!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Yumunum:
Does the sound happen even when the phone's on silent?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Not sure about that and it's hard to test without getting the phone to exactly 15% battery, but I do see it mentioned a lot elsewhere on XDA, and the solution is apparently to delete the file /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg however when I do that (using File Expert in root mode), the system restores the file later. Grr.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Whilst I still urge people to star this issue with Google at the above links, I have found a fix that - whilst fairly cumbersome, does seem to work for the Galaxy Nexus with ICS (type this from your Terminal at the $ or # prompts):

$ adb shell
$ su
# mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# rm /system/media/audio/ui/LowBattery.ogg

I really hate that we have to delete system files via a terminal program just to get a phone that doesn't give extreme headaches and shocks. Wake the **** up Google!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
That means it would be possible to simply replace the sound with something more sexy!

Hi folks,

Hope someone can help, I have just gone from a fixed internet usage to unlimited 'all you can eat' data with the Three network. Since doing this, I cannot connect to the 3G network, I get the message, " Are you using your phone as a modem or personal hotspot"

So basically, it thinks my phone is tethered (which is not allowed on the all-you-can-eat' data plan. The thing is, my phone is NOT tethered.

I have called 3, but it may take up to 48 hours to get this sorted out, and I need the phone for navigation on Friday.

I found what causing that, dont know why.

Its of course doplhin browser. when im using Opera (big one, didnt tried mini) i can use my internet without probs.

Everytime i used dolphin this tethering thing comes on and no other application was not able to connect to internet at all.

Had to switch phone off, wait about 10 minutes and internet was on again.

Seems dolphin because this proxy thing or something else raise this barrier on 3.

Hope it helps.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JoyR2:
Has anyone else run into this problem? Care to list such apps?

Google Music's interface is much different on the Note than it is on an S2 (at least for me). Where on the S2 artists, albums, etc are displayed in a long list of names, on the Note they are displayed in a long list of thumbnails of the artist, album, etc. This layout would make sense on a full size tablet and horizontal scrolling but it is very inefficient on the Note. Also much more taxing on the hardware (not that the Note is lacking in this department though). I would much prefer the S2's layout to quickly find an artist or scroll through the list.

Swiftkey X gives a warning when installed saying the phone version is incorrect for this device (the Note), use the tablet version. However, skipping the warning is not detrimental and the phone version works perfectly on the Note (have not tried the tablet version).

I assume this has to do with the resolution of the Note and apps confusing it as a Full Size Tablet. Anybody else seen this problem? On what apps? Workarounds?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
I don't know if it's a 'problem'.

I don't necessarily like it with certain programs (some games are a bit painful to play), but I don't consider it a bug or anything.

It's a matter of detected screen resolution and how the app decides to use it. I don't see any workaround for it, unlike windows where you can use a selected resolution.

It would be nice for there to be an option to set screen resolution.

I imagine there are some people interested in the note because they want the larger size (larger icons/text/buttons/etc) but not necessarily the higher resolution. You can't always set that.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kromosto:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] con5tant:
nevermind..figured it out..

altho the touch sensitive button lights are based on the light around the phone(light up when dark, light off when not-dark) so the screen being on doesn't matter.

((MOVED TO ITS OWN THREAD))

Hey, Guys:

Okay, first...

Samsung Epic

Legendary ROM EI22 4.01 (rooted, obviously)

Market 3.3.11

MyBackupPro 3.0.1

I backed up with the latest MyBackupPro prior to upgrading to the LegendaryROM (on 21 Nov, so it's been more than long-enough for everything to update.)

When I Restored, my apps all loaded, but only about half of the Paid Apps show on the Market as Installed...the rest show as mine, but Not Installed; and *none* of my Free apps show on my Market list at all.

If I go *to* an App in the Market (that I already have), they all show as Installed already...but there is no option (or button) to Uninstall them.

Now, comes the fun part:

Yes, I know the

normal

way to fix this problem is to delete the Cache and/or Data for Market and Google Services Framework; and allow the Market to repopulate the info. :cool:

However, there is *

NO

* Cache or Data for Market, *or* for Google Services Framework. I've checked with three different utilities...they all say 0.00Bytes; and the CLEAR buttons are greyed out in the Manage Applications section. :eek:

Force Stop does not good, either.

In addition, I have installed two other (new) Apps from the Market & rebooted...and nothing has changed.

*PLEASE* don't tell me the only way to fix this is to rip out sixty apps Manually (with Root Explorer, or ES), and re-install them from the Market. (I already wrote RerWare (the MBUPro folks)...and that was their only suggestion.) :mad:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quick99si:
This may sound stupid, but have you tried *updating a paid app* through the market? Look at Titanium Backup's website, the author has a lot of information regarding similar situations to yours. Good luck!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FerretPD:
There is no option to Update *or* Uninstall...only "Open" from the Market.

Are you suggesting Manually uninstalling an App...and then re-installing?...suppose I can try that...

*EDIT*

Tried that....and *that* app now shows as Installed...but no changes otherwise.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Have you tried restoring Market data from MyBackup? Or is system data not backed up? I use Titanium Backup. It backs up all system data and you can clear data with it on system apps that are "greyed" out in settings. I just restore my market data with that and it is all there.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FerretPD:
Restoring Market is not an option in MyBackup...but there *was* a ClearCache option there...that apparently worked, even though the main Applications one didn't! All batter....thanks for the thoughts, everyone!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffro18:
Titanium backup has an option to break or restore market links when you long click on an app. You can tell if each app has a working market link by the icon on the far right. A yellow smiley means no link, a yellow smiley with a blue "M" on top means it has a link to the market.
