[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Nope, it's metal. The pattern gives it a different feel than the aluminum on the iPad 2, the reviewers say, but it's definitely metal. In fact, it's 99.9% metal and glass, with only the buttons being plastic.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Thanks for correcting. I just read another review saying it was metal also. I cant think of the the one that got it wrong saying it was plastic..lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skeptikal:
It was TechnoBuffalo. I'm still not 100% that he was wrong though. Guess I'll find out soon enough.

The prime has gorilla glass, don't bother with a screen protector as it will be full of scratches in no time...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skycamefalling:
Hi folks, I got a Razr yesterday and am now trying to find an app that lets me use the camera LED as a flashlight. All the apps I've tried simply don't switch it on, however they worked fine on the SGSII.

Anyone who would be so kind to point me to a working application for this?

Thank you

Try tiny flashlight + led

Ive been using it on all my Android phones for the past two year

Has a great widget as well

Only thing is that theres about a second delay before it turns on
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
Motorola Droid light. It's free in the market.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skycamefalling:
Thank you both, it's working. I'm using droid light now.

Strange, that powercontrol plus as well as the other apps I've tried, cannot switch on the light :eek:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Szadzik:
I use Elixir, but for it to work I had to install Tesla Led first.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Z4nd4r:
I second Droid Light. Works like a boss.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skycamefalling:
Well, my boss isn't working at all ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jms_uk:
Tesla LED on its own works just fine for me :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bravo911:
Tiny flashlight is the best. I use it all the time.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] a fat Samoan:
Droid Light doesn't work for me, Tiny Flashlight doesn't work for me either
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pickthecrowdup:
Brightest Flashlight Free is nice. You can use the LED, screen, or both. Can set a timer and it has a sweet startup/shutdown sound(you can disable). Works great on my Razr.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] garywojdan81:
What are you doing differently? Both of these apps work on the stock razr rom. Are you using the Verizon Droid Razr or the Motorola Razr? Are you on any of the GSM version roms or have you done anything drastic to your setup? What happens when you try to use them? I'm on the Verizon Razr & Motorola Droid Light works perfectly for me.

I'm wanting to completely drop Verizon and switch over to Virgin Mobile and was wondering if anyone has had success of Flashing the Incredible 2 over to Virgin?

I have a lot of paid apps that I never ever use like beautiful Widgets and launchers and stuff, is there a WY to transfer them to another Google account say my gf so she can have them?
[Android Apps and Games] buzzboy:
Possible, but she will not receive any updates. From the time you transfer them, i would imagine that they would be deemed as warez?

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] rosswaa:
I was hoping to have them linked to her account so she could get updates and it removed from mine, they should have a gift system put on
[Android Apps and Games] buzzboy:
Not possible as far as I'm aware. But i agree, the gift system is a good idea.

[Android Apps and Games] negrobembon:
Not that good considering theres always someone who can abuse this
[Android Apps and Games] sinkster:
Won't work on accounts, but copy your titanium backup files to the other phone.

sinkster©
[Android Apps and Games] buzzboy:
Good idea, but just to remind you, updates will be impossible. But the App shouldn't change a drastic amount anyway.

Then again you could use your backup periodically to update her apps?

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] daveid:
Actually, it depends how trusting and honest your relationship is... You can add your account to her phone, since the market allows for account selection now. This would (of course) give her access to your contacts, gmail, etc. But that is the only way I know to do this.
[Android Apps and Games] rosswaa:
Might not be the best idea...... : D

[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Hey guys,

I've been working on rooting the new Captivate Glide, and unfortunately my kernel flash with ODIN failed (inexplicably). Now the device is complaining I need to perform an emergency recovery, but of course the device isn't listed in the KIES panel.

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere, but I searched and didn't find anything.

Can anyone explain how KIES works? What is a recovery code? Do I need to get one from Samsung? Is there any other way to force it to perform the recovery on my semi-bricked phone?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xhozt:
Wrong forum ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] b-eock:
There isn't a forum for him yet, so this is the best he could do.

Try going to download mode and flashing again! Try again, until it works, redownload the kernel.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Actually, strangely enough ... I entered 3e recovery (out of desperation) and rebooted, and it cleared the flag, allowing it to boot up normally.

I checked the kernel timestamp (cat /proc/version) and it appears to still be the stock kernel, so the NAND update completely failed.

I still would like to figure out how to force a KIES recovery, but at least for the moment I'm back up and running (till I take my next shot ;)).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] studacris:
Kies is garbage, don't worry about it.

It's just like Odin only there are a retarded amount of checks to make sure it's a supported phone...which usually fail if you're on anything other than stock or your imei has changed to a generic one, or any other reason it wants to make up to fall.

To root you should be able to flash the fugu kernel, which will cause a bootloop, then flash that stock kernel again, then once that boots you should have root.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Frustrating. The n900 flashing tool was so excellent (and cross-platform). Wonder why Samsung would release such a piece of junk.

Anyway, I'm back in business now and still working on it.

I'd love to try one of the other kernels, but since I don't have any recovery path (stock kernel / image / firmware), I'm really nervous now.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phops2010:
I flashed the 2.3.2 recovery ftf and it worked fine. When I did the OTA update to 2.3.3, it never downloaded the update, but it asked me if I wanted to apply it. I still had the CM zip on the card, so it may have flashed it.

Long story short, I cant get the phone to boot, it won't even enter fastboot. Tried flashing various recovery ftf's, tried SEUS, no success. Basically a brick now.

Any ideas?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mixalot2008:
look in the dev section they have a 2.3.3 ftf. just flash that and it should be fine
[Milestone 2 General] alexisjmz:
ok, so here's the thing... I have almost no experience with android, but I want to be messing with my phone so I can learn from experience...

I read that motoblur eats up a lot of CPU from the phone, so I tried to remove some parts that I though they would not affect the functionally of the phone. basically I uninstalled the socialmedia and other similar software that was "related" or had socialmedia on the name.

as a result, my contacts that sync from facebook were deleted from the contact list.

so before I started to remove these programs, extensions, or whatever, I made a backup of each using titanium backup, but when I tried to restore the backup, no matter with which one I started, the thing didn't restore the program, it just stayed as "performing installation" or something and nothing happen. I leave a "restoration" of one of the programs all night and nothing...

so I decided to make a hard rest to the phone. And the nighmare begins...

Once the phone boots, the first thing you see is the configuration of the motoblur account, so I just input my user and pass and hit next and nothing happens...

well, that's no true, it goes back to home screen of the motoblur configuration and ask me to do the account setup again, and again and again... you get the point. it's cycled or I remove something that does not allow the process to continue... and since I cannot configure the blur account, I cannot access the Phone to use it, or make a system nandroid backup, a restore of app o even make a phonecall that it's not a emergency (911) call.

I'm affraid to start messing with the phone since I'm located in Mexico, and my provider is telcel, so I don't know if all of the roms and hacks will leave my phone working in my country (I've only seen rom from argentina, china, europe, so I'm a little scared to start messing with the roms)

Is there any way to patch the motoblur 2.2.1 like in this post? http://xdaforums.com/show...169038&page=68

can the phone be booted to install gingerbread without any special software installed? the phone was rooted, but since I made a hard reset, I don't know if it remains rooted...

help please
[Milestone 2 General] DreadPirateDan:
Hey there.

Hard reset only deletes any settings or apps you have applied/installed. Once you start playing with root and deleting system apps, the only way back is either restoring any backups of the system apps (if you made any, AND if it will even let you - one time I uninstalled the software that installed APK's by accident -__-) or you can flash your stock firmware (froyo) with RSD lite. If you made a nandroid backup with Clockwork mod recovery prior to messing with stuff, and can still enter CWM, you could restore that backup too.

All firmwares available here http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2

You can get RSD lite here http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/e6-general-chat/31983-flashing-tool-rsd-lite-v5-3-1-a.html

You have to go into bootloader (with phone off, hold the hardware key d-pad up and power button and release once powered on)

It's all pretty straight forward, download your SBF from that site, open rsd lite, load your sbf, enter bootloader, connect phone via usb, click start.

If you were only on froyo, you can only load CWM from the OS. So if droid2bootstapper and super user aren't there you probably can't install any of the gingerbread roms from this forum at this stage. EDIT whoops ignore that just re-read your post. Man, too many beers :p

Bottom line, garunteed you can just flash your stock firmware with rsd lite, root, install clockwork mod recovery and install the custom roms from then on!

Also a guide to restoring your ms2 is located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032372

Hi.

I have a problem. I run out of batt. before the workday is over.

Im runnung push mail so. I change it to evert 15m. And it help alot.

Now im need a little more to get thrugh the workday.

So is there is way to deactivate one core?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
Yes there is!

First, flash a kernel that supports the feature: Siyah kernel or Lulz kernel. (Don't ask me how to root if you haven't done it yet!)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263838

Next, download Tegrak 2nd core app from market. Switch to 'Single Core Mode' to use only 1 core all the time. (Dynamic Hotplug mode is the default).

Note that, even if cpu load is very high (like when playing hd games), only one core can be used which might cause freezing.

So whenever you want to save power, use Single Core Mode, in other situations, use dynamic hot plug mode.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tegrak.secondcore
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
If you don't have already, you will need root.

2nd Core free on the Market

A kernel that supports it: [KERNEL] (XWKJ3) Lulz Kernel Build 15/Tegrak Build 29

Hope that helped ;)

Edit: Beaten to it in the post above by a nanosecond,......again!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omega Frost:
I think it's unnecessary since mobile CPUs manages usage pretty well, mine stays at 200MHz most of the time, i can't see how disable the second core will help but pump more load to the first one, increasing it's clock and battery consumption. I can be wrong though, if i am please show me some statistics to confirm.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
I sort of agree. But.......... From my very limited understanding of (particularly custom) kernels is that the 2nd core only comes online and scales up/down at certain load thresholds. So in theory, if the phone is just idling away at 200mHz (or even 100mHz), the 2nd core won't ramp up until , say, 90%. So based on this, light use of the phone won't make much use of the 2nd core anyway.

In conclusion; As you will need root anyway, advise use a custom ROM and kernel with tweaked governor to improve vastly improve both performance and battery life. You can also UC (underclock) the CPU from 1200 -> 1000 or 800 mHz too.

2 Recommendations are:

1) ROM : [ROM][XWKJ3][2.3.5] CheckROM RevoHD™ V3.1.1 |Stabilized|Optimized|Customized!

2) Kernel : [KERNEL] SiyahKernel v2.2i - "One kernel to rule them all" (SAMMY&AOSP ROMs) with smartassV2 governor (100 ->xxx mMz)

But the decesion to root is yours, and there many more excellent choices of ROM and kernels. Just search XDA Forums and you'll find plenty more battery saving tips such as the last FAQ in [KERNEL] SiyahKernel v2.2i - "One kernel to rule them all" (SAMMY&AOSP ROMs)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnurrDass:
Root my phone at this moment is not an option. Company polecy and garatie related.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Tommylee567:
Hi all,

recently i have this problem....i will explain one by one and someone can check out this matter.

I was running previously GingerDX v17 (the last version) and i had few apps to use. i did not use much apps and it was about 15-20 apps incl some games and more tools. and i use to perfectly switch from one app to another and if i return back i will get it correctly.

Ex: If i use Opera Mini and change it to PowerAmp and come back to Opera Mini i will fairly get my pages back and i can still listen to music at the same time...

Then yesterday (and two days ago) i installed lots of apps from the market. now after that installation my phone doesn't do the switching matter good.

Stats: (using Flame.E 0.4v now, apps moved to SD card [.android_secure] using Titanium Backup)

1. Currently there are about 60 apps listed in TB

2. 35-40 MB RAM is available

3. VM heap size is set to 32M (i dont know what that does so i don't touch it, keep in default everytime)

4. Most of the large and every app that is movable is moved to SD card.

5. Internal 34MB is free (total 222MB)

6. System ROM 22MB free (total 216)

7. SD card has 1.4GB free space (total 4GB)

8. At the moment i am using GO Launcher EX and some useful widgets and clock

Now i can't play music using PowerAmp and use Opera Mini at the same time.

It automatically closes and goes on using the foreground app.

So if i have to listen to music i have to keep the screen with PA and don't use any other app/game.

[ok i found the word now, multi-tasking]

i see this is not a custom rom matter so i will never blame anyone.

This is a U20i X10 mini pro, running Flame.E 0.4 by Eyama, have Kernel Zombie Panic 1.63.

Is this due to the apps im running? what shall i do?

Kind help is needed.

Thank you!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
I stumbled across this video and thought I'd share it. I see the person doing the comparison is making use of the the quick controls functionality of the browser. Personally, I feel the quick controls just might be what sets this browser apart from the rest and quite possibly makes this the best mobile browser out.

For those who aren't familiar with what quick controls are, he breaks it down around 5:45.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm3dCbxjeqw&feature=player_embedded

Note: To enable quick controls, go in your browser settings, and look under the "labs" section and you'll see it there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aly19:
Awesome! great feature, thanks for the heads up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
great walkthrough of the browser overall.

the quick control was one of the cooler features from honeycomb they brought in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
Yeah I thought he did a pretty decent job of going through the browser.

I was thrilled when I put the ICS rom on my Nexus S and saw the browser quick controls. lol Ever since I used the browser on the Xoom tablet when it first came out and tried out the quick controls I was trying to find a way to bring it to my phone. Obviously, I quickly found out that wouldn't be possible. So from that point forward I've been wanting the quick controls feature. Couple the quick controls feature with the browser speed and you've got IMO the best mobile browser out there. I can't wait to try it on my GNex (when handtec eventually ships it....).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mobilehavoc:
It's been a Labs feature since Honeycomb and still is which says to me it's buggy and unstable. I used on my Xoom and it made my browser flaky at times. Ics might be more stable but just keep an eye on it. If it was perfectly fine it'd just be a regular setting and not still under labs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
I've never had that feature give me any trouble at all. It seems our experiences differ here. How frequently did it give you problems? Also is there anyone with a GNex now, that is using this feature? How is it operating for you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdhommert:
What kind of things can you do with quick controls? I watched the video this morning, but only remember him using it to switch tabs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Basically lets you 1) switch tabs 2) pull up the address bar 3) access the settings menu.

The plus is they're quickly accessible when compared to the normal address bar/menus, and it lets the address bar be hidden 99% of the time to give you a larger view of the page.
