[Motorola Droid RAZR] tbcpn:
Re battery comments, my home and office are literally just one mile and over a hill from four bars of 4G, so I'm on strong 3G most of the time. I don't use WiFi much, dozens of emails, perhaps an hour or so of calls, numerous SMS, market updates / downloads, Angry Birds, surfing, and I can easily go from fully charged at 0600 to 30% battery at 2200.

This is perfectly acceptable for my needs, but as noted above, no 4G, and I find that WiFi draws my battery faster than idling on 3G--which seems contrary to the experience of many others. This is better than my T-Bolt, and even tho I travel a lot, I don't mind the sealed battery--I carry a couple iGo 1,540 chargers instead of a couple T-Bolt batteries when traveling.

Hopefully everyone realizes that's a Photoshop image with an article based on a story from a Verizon store employee. The same employees that normally do not know JACK SQUAT about when a phone is coming out... But either way, there's ALWAYS going to be a better phone out several months after you buy yours.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Semseddin:
There will be newer models for sure. Why everyone is being unhappy with that ? Would you like to follow a brand like SE who still sells singlecore phones ?

Get over this bs and get used to technology if you like to follow it.

The xt910 doesn't have the connectivity issues we have thus causing further drain...

I'm using the gsm version now and the battery is as expected. I've had plenty of dual core phones this year and they all seem to have similar battery life.Compared to my last phone, a sgs2, the battery is not quite as good, but it is very close.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
Instead of releasing a new phone to piss us off, they can recall all RAZRs back to replace the battery with a more capable one (as the user shouldn't be able of replacing it himself, but it's easy to replace) and sell the new RAZRs with already the new battery.

Or damn at least Moto, make the new MAXX battery to be compatible with the "old" RAZR, so that we can replace it "losing the warranty"...

***WHY???***
[XPERIA X8 General] her3814:
they left DT, because, the results from their test, has been very successfull, if you want a "better" option, come'on! ther are a lot of guides, and repositorys free of charhe, for you to learn and to try making a better option. Nobody has born knowing everything. But we have very good Devs and they do as much as they can and they want.
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
because SE has crippled the synaptics chip, if you want to have DT on synaptics digitizer you need to edit firmware in this chip but there is no way how to read it from the chip and synaptics won't give us the firmware so we won't have DT. if you want it, go and buy another phone

I thought about getting the ballistic case, but I honestly don't need something that big unless I'm out in the field in the military, and for those I don't bring my tablets, the phone is good enough

now I'm looking at the slim cases just for basic protection and I have found a few

Here are my choices -

AYL® High Quality Slim Leather Case Folio

This one is nice, but no prime on amazon (I like to use that feature for fast free shipping and get my money's worth lol) but I think the ratings are skewed because the company sends you a stylus pen if you write a positive review... so everyone is rating the damn thing a 5 star. it's ridiculous and I can't trust the reviews on that thing because of it...

Body Glove Moto Xoom Phantom Case

It's an inexpensive case that seems ok like a not as tough ballistic case, but no screen cover which I kind of want (and no tablet stand)

Acase Slim Leather Folio Case

This thing seems identical to the AYL and I can't tell a damn difference, and it has prime. some people said it doesn't stay put when you have it on tilt while you type though...

rooCASE Executive Portfolio (Black) Leather Case Cover

Now I really like this one and it looks professional but no stand for it, so I don't know about that...

Snugg Motorola Xoom Case Cover and Flip Stand

Just a very sleek nice looking case, I love that white sticthing
[Xoom Accessories] okantomi:
I just bought the rooCase and it's nice...a bit bulky, not really slim, unless you use the inner sleeve by itself, but it's very protective and the case doubles as a stand. It's like carrying around a rather thick agenda, with all the pros and cons of that.
[Xoom Accessories] Ssunyoto:
AYL CASE

Got the AYL case 2 weeks ago, did not receive that Stylus promotion though.

Overall I would give it a 4.5/5 as its all good except that the top is closed just by pure pressie, so I'm afraid after constant usage the stitching will start to give out.

I would recommend it though. Solid case.
[Xoom Accessories] razorseal:
How about that acase slim? it looks identical...

that roocase I think is bit too much for what I want it.
[Xoom Accessories] zonk7ate9:
I'd say go with the AYL case... it looks nearly identical, to the carbon fiber folio case from kevikev:

http://www.shop.kevikev.com/Motorol...r-Multi-View-Case-Folio-Stand-YCASECFXOOM.htm

I've had the kevikev case for about 6 months now, and I absolutely love it. I haven't even thought about another case. I notice the AYL case has a cutout for charging and ports too which is nice.
[Xoom Accessories] razorseal:
I love that case. The CF look is real nice too, I might go for that case when it's in stock. Shame not on amazon
[Xoom Accessories] scramer:
I do not have any of those cases, I have a zoogue, but I could not use a case without a stand. No stand narrows your choices a bit.

Hi there,

got my galaxy nexus yesterday and have to say i'm really impressed :)

but mine has a battery bug, not very fatal but it's there

i'm in an app (yesterday it happened once using youtube and some time later using imdb) and suddenly the screen flutters to warn me due to low battery, battery indicator showing low.

when i switch back to the homescreen the battery indicator went back to normal (~60% at that time)

anyone else recognized this?

infos: all stock, build is ITL41F

Hi everybody. Im coming from a DroidX and now i bought this piece of art, the Galaxy S2.

I have a question, if i install Cyanogenmod ROM and then i want to install a MIUI or another rom, do i need to use the Odin software for wipe al the content in my device or just flash like normal in clockwork?

My question for this is because in the DroidX if i want to change the ROM from froyo to gingerbread in a custom rom, i need to SBF.

Thanks in advance.

Eclipse CARBON Boot Animation

Another alternative for the Eclipse ROM, inspired by lifebeginsfriday's new Carbon Red Bliss theme for Eclipse, which can be found over at RootzWiki

Thanks goes to nitroglycerin33 for the sweet ROM and the custom font, and lifebeginsfriday for the theme idea. Also, thanks to Versatile1 for help with the flashable .zip

Eclipse CARBON Boot Animation

AS ALWAYS...

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE AS A RESULT OF USING THIS CONTENT, JUST AS IT IS NO ONE ELSES FAULT FOR ANY DAMAGE I MIGHT DO TO MINE. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE RISKS INVOLVED, YA MIGHT JUST BE BETTER OFF STICKING WITH STOCK. It's not that complicated, just do a little research. Plenty of knowledge floating around XDA...

Simple enough:

1:: download the .zip

2:: rename it (using ES File Explorer or Astro or any ROOT EXPLORER that will allow you to MOUNT SYSTEM AS WRITABLE) by simply cutting out the description so that it is just bootanimation.zip

3:: copy or cut the bootanimation.zip and paste it in the system/media folder

4:: you will be warned that the merge will overwrite the existing file and that the world will end :eek: (not really, just accept the merge)

REBOOT

UPDATE: 12.4.11

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Erislover:
I have had this issue both stock and on every rom I've tried -- sometimes my phone retrieves text messages LONG after they were sent, and sometimes it fails to retrieve them altogether. This doesn't happen frequently, but maybe one or two every week. It's not the result of having no signal or anything like that - it just isn't getting the messages.

Also, I should add that sometimes google voice will get the text but messaging won't until later...sometimes messaging will get the text and google voice never will...and this message retrieval problem has occurred irrespective of whether I have messaging, handcent, and/or google voice on the phone.

Has anyone else had this problem, and is there a known solution?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shutslar:
I have an i9020T that is stuck in the Google boot loop. I was given this phone in this state so I am not sure how it happened. I can volume+ and power and get to fastboot. When I do a fastboot oem unlock, the screen changes on the phone to confirm I want to unlock the bootloader. I use volume+ to move to Yes then press the power button to select.

The PC terminal shows the little dots as if it is working on it. After 9 hours, the phone's screen remains on the Unlock Bootloader? screen and the PC terminal has Failed with too many links.

I have tried with the Android ADB Interface driver, the Android Bootloader Interface driver, and the Samsung drivers. I have removed the drivers and downloaded PDAnet, put the phone in fastboot mode, connected to the pc and let PDAnet install the driver (although it cannot install PDAnet on the phone). All resulting in the same outcome.

If I type fastboot devices, it returns the serial number that is displayed on the phones fastboot screen. It will not fastboot oem unlock.

I have searched and read as much as I can find on this and other forums. It appears this has happened before but the threads I have found seem to stop without concluding if there is a solution or it's a lost cause.

Anyone have a solution to this? Or, is this phone just a brick?

[General Questions and Answers] Pyr0TeK:
So I have been looking into getting my 13 and 9 yr. old children one of these devices for Christmas. All in all, the major differences between the Kindle Fire and the Nook Tablet (at least for me) are:

Kindle Fire is limited in memory, can add additional microSD etc. Stuck with 8GB on-board with only a portion of that available for music/movies etc.

Nook Tablet has hard volume keys (not a big deal to me).

Kindle Fire seems to be more hackable... plus the Amazon Market is way bigger than what Kindle offers. I think you can add the Google Android Market to both? I know you can on the Fire.

$50 price difference between these two... I'm leaning towards the Fire but if my kids wanted to put a few movies on them, not sure how much it will be able to hold before it's full. If they would have only put in a freaking expansion slot this would be a no-brainer.

Thoughts?
[General Questions and Answers] Thane108:
You can access all the Amazon content on the Nook by sideloading the Amazon apps - see the instructions elsewhere in the forums. It's pretty easy - no root required.

I went with the Nook for the reasons you mentioned - more ram and the ability to add more storage with an SD card. I added a 32 gig card.

Most reviewers note that some video - at least Netflix - streams with better quality on the Nook. The Nook uses an HD Netflix stream which is adjusted for the size/density of the Nook rather than adjust a SD stream (as is done on the Kindle).

Most reviewers feel the screen is better on the Nook - same resolution, but less glare.

If you don't have the skills to sideload, I would go with the Kindle. (It isn't hard, but some people might be intimadated.)

If money is an issue, go with the Kindle.

If you will always be on WiFi, the memory advantage of the Nook will be less important.

If you want to view movies or listen to music when you aren't on the WiFi - go with the Nook as storage is more important.
[General Questions and Answers] Pyr0TeK:
Thanks for the in depth reply... I agree with everything you stated. $249 x 2 = $498. EEEEEEEK! Not being able to add a sd card to the Kindle is really the only reason I may have to go with the Nook.

Nook all the way

I would suggest the nook, they have almost identical hardware but the nook has a little more ram and you can add a SD card for additional storage. I have CM7 flashed to mine and the battery life is awesome! can watch several movies on it with a full charge, would be great for kids!
[General Questions and Answers] adolfo778:
seen both and own a kindle personally the kindle is faster, and yes you can install the google play store on it too
[General Questions and Answers] monkor:
I have the Nook, my GF has the Kindle Fire. For kids of the age you're buying for, the Kindle Fire will do just fine. They're not going to be rooting or messing around with it too much, and the stock OS for the Kindle runs fantastic. The Fire is more than capable of handling all of their needs. The Nook isn't bad in the least, but the fire has native access to a much better Google Play store (vs the B&N version)

But as a previous poster said, if you're interested in saving plenty of movies on the device or streaming lots of movies, then I'd suggest the Nook. For me, I like the dedicated home and volume buttons (though the volume can be finnicky)

Hey there,

I have a big question about hboot downgrade. If I downgrade my hboot from 1.03 to 0.90 I would be able to do the same things as rooted people can. Is this right?

And if I downgrade, would this slow down my mobile? Can I delete system apps and than upgrade back to hboot 1.03?

[Kindle Fire General] ejrubin:
I've been trying to fix my kindle fire for a while now. My ultimate problem is that my build.prop is not in my /system/ but I have been trying to push a replacement build.prop to that directory to no avail. It looks like I have superuser installed. Superuser.apk is in system/app/ and there are a few SU directories around my file system.

My problem is that even though I have SU in my file system, I am not getting the correct permissions when accessing the KF through adb. Whenever I type in su it says permission denied. Similarly, whenever I try to change the permissions for /system/ I am denied as well. Whenever I type in su, it says "segementation fault".

It seems to me that there are three possibilities:

1. I somehow have the superuser files in place but the SU program itself is not installed.

2. SU is installed but because I can't fully boot up my KF, I can't give ADB Root access through SU because I can't pull up the "allow access" dialog box.

3. Something stupd like I"m trying the wrong commands.
[Kindle Fire General] Skimp Killah:
Maybe your kindle auto updated and broke root? But if you've already updated and re-rooted I'm not sure what the issue would be.
[Kindle Fire General] ejrubin:
hmmm...I think a main thing I need to know for sure before I continue is if my phone is even rooted for sure. I have the superuser.apk in system/app. I don't have anything in data/local. I have a SU directory in a couple places. Is there any way for ADB to recognize if a phone is rooted (perhaps if the file system is set up a current way?) without having access to root priveledges itself?
[Kindle Fire General] Jessical:
Same here, BurritoRoot, I've tried this on both Linux/Mac, but either way, I can never get su to work so my Kindle can be r/w.
[Kindle Fire General] Sidriel:
Maybe try

adb shell

$su

If $ changes to # you have root.

When installing su check the file permissions on the directory as well.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
just a try:

adb shell

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

what's the answer ?

if the response is not a failure you should have r/w
[Kindle Fire General] Jessical:
That worked, thank you!

---------- Post added at 02:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 AM ----------

But then I lose them after a reboot.

---------- Post added at 02:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 AM ----------

$su doesn't give me a # anymore either.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
that command only remounts the system partition r/w - not permanent !

but after issuing the comand:

you can copy files, change permission or whatever

you can also run kfu to permantly root with superuser

I am having a problem on Android that I can't figure out. I use the RingCentral service for my home phone, unrelated to my Android phone.

When a caller leaves a voicemail for me at RingCentral, I receive a SMS message on my Android phone. The RingCentral SMS is sent from XXXXXXXXXX@ringcentral.com where the X's are the phone number of the caller.

The X phone number matches a phone number for a friend in my Android contacts. However, the XXXXXXXXXX@ringcentral.com is no where in the contact record for that person.

My SMS app is empty. No retained messages. Whenever I get a direct SMS from that contact, it now shows as being from XXXXXXXXXX@ringcentral.com rather than that person's contact record name: First Name, Last Name. This is annoying because I use Tasker to read the name of the SMS sender. Instead of reading the name, it reads me all of the numbers at ringcentral dot com.

It seems this has to be related to a cache or something, but can't figure it out. Any ideas?
