WOW dude, AGAIN??!

You can't ask questions in the development thread......Nah, just kidding I think is funny!!

To answer your question.....NO it won't mess anything up! Don't mess with the settings in EPST advanced mode or profile and don't flash a different Hboot and you'll be alright! Flash any ROM, PRI, PRL and any radio you want!!

Just keep a Nandroid on your computer just in case you ever mess with your settings...IT MIGHT restore them but like I said before don't mess with them and you'll be alright! FLASH...FLASH...FLASH

GOOD LUCK!!!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Milkman00:
Here is the scenario.

I have my Samsung Epic. I purchased a Samsung Epic for my wife. She has her own Gmail account so when I configured the phone, I configured it for her gmail account. I would like to use a couple of the apps that I purchased in my Market on my wife's phone. I know how to add my account to my wife's phone, and get my paid apps to show up in her market. Here is the problem.

I would like to keep her phone on her market. How do apps that do license checks work in this scenario???
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
So you're trying to use a single user license for multiple phones? Gotcha...

P.C. answer: She has to purchase each paid application under her account if she plans on utilizing any of them.

Non-P.C. answer: Given what you are trying to accomplish (pirating software for your wife's device), this may or may not work with multiple phones accessing the same Google account. You can have more than 1 Google account on the phone. After you have added the 2nd Google account to the phone, press the menu soft key and select "Accounts" within the Market. Select which account you wish to use. This also means that your wife will also have access to your Gmail, calendar and all that is Google for your account.

I highly think Google did not intend people to share their account with others (family, friends or etc.) to circumvent the purchasing of Market applications. Whether they properly coded their software to prevent such actions is a different matter. I guess you will find out.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Milkman00:
I am not asking about theft. I thought that I read on Google that purchase of an app allows me to use it on all of my devices. Since my wife's phone is on my Sprint account, under my name, I thought that this was legit.

http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=113410

I know the example isn't exactly like my scenario but the verbiage states "Your application purchases are tied to your Google Account and can be installed an unlimited amount of times on any device". There is nothing there about simultaneoius uses.

As for your non-PC answer, I can set my wife's phone to non sync my e-mail and calendar, but I am more concerned about the license check. How does that work with multiple market accounts?? How does the license check work?

What about folks with a phone and a tablet? I've been curious about this.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lancelane:
With the market and Amazon market I have all apps that I purchased on all of my devices. He would have to set it up with his gmail as main one and then add hers. He could then set it not to synch his gmail on her phone. He may like it to synch his calendar on her phone. Lots of families do that.

Hope this helps.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgregg504:
Exactly this I have all of my apps on both of my phones
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
And what if she wanted to purchase an app on her Google account? Would her account have to be primary to use the paid apps?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wsigo:
The account doesn't have to be set as "primary" per se. Just set up husband account on wife's phone, and set to not sync contacts etc. Open the market app, soft key menu, select account. Select husband account. Download app. Re-set account in market to wifes account.

The market will find updates for both her and his accounts automatically for installed apps on her phone.

I have two gmail accounts of my own, and apps installed from both. It's basically the same thing as what OP is asking.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lancelane:
Wow. I didn't realize you could do that. Nice to know. Thanks for the info.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh4645:
with the older version of the market, the purchaser had to be the main gmail account on the device. with the new market, it doesnt matter who is #1 or #2.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CapsLockKey:
I set up a seperate "family" gmail account so we can share paid apps across our devices without having access to each other's gmail. I have a few paid apps on my own account from before I did this, but I can always log into one of their phones and download the apps, then delete the account. Only issue there is won't get updates unless I log my account back in.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Good to know this.. was a bit vague about the TOS..
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoneBullet:
All good suggestions. Here's one more:

You could get AirDroid (available off Market) to export the paid app of your choice from one phone and transfer it to another phone. It's quick and easy.

Plus I recommend AirDroid as a generally useful app anyway. =)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Yea you can also use a file manager with root permissions or Titanium backup to get the apk and install it on any device you want.

However, the easiest thing to do is use a single account to purchase all applications on and sync that to each device. Families do this all the time. 1 account for all paid apps and sometimes pictures, then their own personal account for mail and etc.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CapsLockKey:
Done this with Google Music as well. It's nice having one central family gmail account so everyone can share music, pictures and apps.

Plus Google Play allows you to set up a pin number on individual devices to keep my kids from trying to purchase paid apps without telling me. This is the one feature that the Amazon App store is severely lacking. I have no problem using my Amazon account on my wife's phone, but I won't put it on my kids' as there's no parental controls to block one click purchases other than in-app purchases.
[HTC Inspire 4G] HAYDENB:
Ok i have a question. Yesterday i flashed a a different ROM but before i did that i did a titanium backup of all my Data and my Apps Then i flashed the new ROM then i restored all the Data. But after i did the restore and rebooted my SMS Texts were gone. But all of my contacts were still there. Is there a way to restore the lost texts or am i out of luck?
[HTC Inspire 4G] one7dchevy:
out of luck.. I use SMS Backup before flashing roms when i need my text messages..
[HTC Inspire 4G] dyne2199:
As one7dchevy already stated, SMS Backup and Restore is a great app (which is also free) to use for saving your SMS when switching ROMs. You can also use Backup to GMail, which not only backs up SMS, but will also backup MMS and your Call Log if you don't mind the $1.99 fee (a bargain in my book).
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
I had the same thing happen when using TiBu but they showed up a lil later, I think after a reboot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] HAYDENB:
That is what usually happens after i restore the data. I do a reboot then then all my texts would all be there

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crachel:
You could add the browser from 2.3.4 by pulling it out of an update zip and pushing it to your system, however, I'm fairly certain that bounce affect is system wide and not handled within individual apps

I want a premium tablet that weight less than 450 gr and is no bigger than 8.9 inch . Xoom 2 media edition has what i need .I am a bit afraid to buy it because i cant find any info on this tablet .Usually i am not an early adopter on products ...

Does the media edition has the digitizer to make active stylus work or not ? How is the the battery life on this tablet ?

No one seems to care about this tablet and every one wants transformer prime for its tegra 3 . Will the xda community support this tablet or Motorola will just sell few of them and xda developers will not care to built a custom rom ?

Do you have any suggestions for others tablets that will suits my needs ?
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Key to development is whether it will have an unlockable bootloader and fastboot support. That remains to be seen.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>i cant find any info on this tablet

Xoom 2 aka XYBoard hasn't been officially announced. There's a rumor it will be released for Verizon, ie 4G-only. There's another rumor that pricing will be premium, like initial pricing for the OG Xoom. It's all rumors.

>No one seems to care about this tablet and every one wants transformer prime for its tegra 3

The Teg3 should perform better than the OMAP 4430. But the big buzz for the Prime is that it's the closest iPad2 competitor to date in terms of design polish. That, and because there isn't any other 2-gen Android tablets released for this year (Nook Tablet and Kindle Fire aside).

Dearth of new 2nd-gen toys is expected since ICS came too late for Xmas shopping. HC tabs didn't do well, so vendors are resigned to a spring launch with ICS, hopefully with better hardware (eg FullHD screens). Asus Prime is the single exception.

The bigger picture gets more complicated with Win8 beta coming Jan/Feb. Traditional PC vendors like Acer/Toshiba/Dell/Lenovo will probably concentrate their efforts on Win8 tabs, since that's a proven money-maker. Android tabs have all had disappointing sales thus far. Again, Asus has been the exception to its aggressive Android push.

Back to Moto. It doesn't really have a retail line for Android tabs. The Xoom Family is a half-hearted effort with neither the appeal nor pricing to catch consumer interest. Until the Googorola deal is done and Moto gets new marching orders, it's likely to stick to its present strategy of carrier channels and premium 4G tablets.

Probably more than what you asked. Anyway, suggest you look into the Samsung GT 8.9 or 7+.
[Xoom General] mgerbasio:
I'm a happy Xoom 4G 32gB owner but see no reason to buy a Xoom 2. In fact, I pre-ordered the Asus Transformer Prime; if that wasn't available, I'd stick with the Xoom and not buy anything. My Xoom is fast enough for what I'm doing so just offering a faster processor in a different box isn't good enough.

My reasons for getting the TP over the Xoom2: better display, battery life, high quality build, "pressure-sensing" display for hand writing/notes, will charge through usb (when off) and faster.
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
My reasons for considering Xoom2 media edition :

PROS: I prefer smaller than 10.1 form factors . good ips display with higher pixel density ?, 8 hours battery life is enough for my need, good quality build with splash guard protection , active digitizer on display with motorola stylus for hand writing notes, will charge through normal usb cable , has IR blaster , cheaper .

Cons: In 3 months from know will be outdated tablet with slower gpu (i am not into tablet gaming but a good gpu is always something nice to have) . No sd card? in this pdf it say it has but all the videos i have seen say it don't :confused: Has no momentum and xda developers will not support the tablet as good as other tablet on the market .

Is the worst time to get a tablet and the choices in small factor category is very limited now . Samsung don't sell tab 7.0 plus in Europe so my only real choice for a premium tablet is this . Wish samsung had released 7.7 but i don't believe this tab will come to the market in the near future ...
[Xoom General] big ach:
The fact that its called the DROID Xyboard pretty much seals the deal that it will only be available on Verizon with 4G and will not be released with wifi only in the US, since the "DROID" brand is a trademark of Verizon

(Hence why the Droid Razr is only called "Razr" overseas)

[Xoom General] reubenmcdonald:
I'm considering the Xoom media edition as well, as I like the size/weight of an 8.2 inch display.

There are some Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus in Europe, I was playing with one in a Comet in London at the weekend, but it is priced at slightly above the Xoom 2 ME for a smaller screen and some lower specs.

There seems to be some confusion about what the pen can do on the Xoom 2 ME, yesterdays Engadget review of the Xoom 2 10" claimed that the pen was primarily designed for that and would not have full functionality on the Xoom 2 ME.
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
I sent an email and asking motorola about this and about sd card support and the answer that the gave to me ...

Thank you for contacting Motorola.

In response to your email, we would like to confirm that at this point the Xoom 2 Media Edition does not support SD card. Regarding the stylus it works with Xoom, Xoom 2 but not with Xoom 2 Media edition.

What motorola want to say At this point does not support sd card (will support it at the future - sd card slot that has is there but not work now ?) and how stylus works with Xoom and not xoom 2 ? Does the screen on xoom and xoom 2 has any sort of digitizer that make stylus work only with those tablets and not others tabs ? if stylus is just another active capacitive stylus i don't see any reasons why should not work with xoom 2 me .

Kind of a weird question but if I install an application from an apk, how can I "link it" so it shows as installed in the market and get auto updates?

I am planning to flash my rom and i have d/l quite a few apps that I want to avoid d/l again (internet not so good in our part of the world) so just using apk to install would be much faster

Titanium Backup can recreate market links. It's called "Attach to Market (forced)". I don't know if the free version can do it or if it's only the pro version, but either way, it's a really great app and totally worth the money if you go for the pro version. It does require root, though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deaad:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deaad:
I think that I missed your question.

If you need to flash a rom make a CWM backup first in case of emergency.

In case you need to wipe first than you need also a titanium backup.

The last few days on my daily walk as I'm listening to music all of a sudden I hear dialing beep tones. I look at the phone and it's dialing a number. The call ends immediately and it dials it again. It's like there's some looping script running. I had to restart the phone to get it to stop. I carry the phone in a case and use the standard lock screen, so there no chance it's some random button press. It's dialing a number that I did call once a month ago, but it's not in my contact list. Any idea what could cause this or how to prevent it?
