[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nygel8:
hi! I've been observing this lately. when I'm at work i don't lose so much battery than when I'm asleep when I'm asleep i lose a wooping 70% of battery.

so what the hell is happening here? I saw this blinking lights above the phone. that's when I focused on this notification lights. when i woke up there's 2 to 3 text messages from friends. which is 8 hours ago during my sleep.

the question is, are the lights really draining my battery? or the messages app that is running in the background during those time?

thanks! btw im using doomkernel on 2.3.3
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgalb:
My question is a variation of a couple of threads about the GN being blocked from using ATT as a phone (because of the existing data plan they were using).

I make less than 20 phone calls a month, but use my current HD2 on wifi for other tasks.

Looking at the ATT data plans, it appears that the 4G 2gb data plan for tablets would suit me to a T for the GN. I could then get the little voice I use thru VOIP.

Anyone know a way I can (legally) do this on the GN ? (My note will arrive this week).

Edit: This would allow me to cancel my phone line, saving $10 and get the tablet plan for $25. Net cost per month $15 for my GN with data.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juiceppc:
It's not a tablet. It has an earpiece built in and it's screen is under 7 inches. Just my opinion. Would you think the Nexus Prime is a Tablet? Is the Dell Streak a tablet? So I would hope it's not possible. However this is being debated I guess.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgalb:
What legitimate reason could you have for hoping it's not possible? The tablet/phone categories are purely arbitrary assignments.

Why should a wireless company force me to pay for phone service in addition to data service purely because my device has the capability to act as a phone? The service provider is not subsidizing my device, therefore he is losing no revenue. This only makes sense to the service provider because he has the power to do it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5150Joker:
Its a phone with mediocre stylus support, not a tablet. Besides I don't think anyone here wants to see this phone classified as a tablet so don't be surprised if people are less than enthusiastic in assisting you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgalb:
Oh, I see. If it were a choice of tablet or phone according to what I see as the current wireless provider "rules", then I would want it to be a phone, also.

However, as a more general rule, why can't an unlocked device funded solely by the purchaser use and pay for either data or voice, or both? That's what I was trying to get at. I could go on and on about the topic, but will stop now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarsierspectra:
Hi,

This is possible. I just got it setup this way this weekend. Picked the $25 plan and I am using VOIP to make/receive calls. PM me
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxh:
AT&T wants to do anything and everything in their power to raise revenue, despite anything the customers want. That means forcing tablet users to pay for a tablet data plan, as well as a phone data plan (and voice/sms).

I'd say you don't have to do anything special if you're looking for a data only plan for a tablet, since that's how they've been detecting the Note. Just buy your plan and stick the sim card in the Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer Ear Infection:
You've really got me thinking here... If AT&T gives me any crap for the GN I'm about to swap my iPhone 3GS SIM into, I'll just quit my off-contract deal with them and move to a Google Voice with Groove IP setup on pure data for $25 a month on AT&T. So long as it works reasonably well I really can't see a downside. Their call quality is nauseatingly bad anyway, so how bad could it be to switch this setup in?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spartan2x:
This is what I have been doing on my iPhone 4 for the last 3 months. I use the google voice app for text, and talkatone(same as grooveIP) for voice. My Note come in any minute now and I'll be trying to get my unlimited data iPad sim to work in it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer Ear Infection:
No more drooped calls than usual? My only worry is jumping from the frying pan into the fire.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spartan2x:
It is most certainly less reliable then having full voice capability. The quality "works" but I would not like to be on the phone any longer then I have to. I bought a $20 Go phone that I leave turned off in my car in case I need to make a longer, more important phone calls.

I don't use the phone for conversation, my generation and below is moving to mostly text based model(I'm 25). I like to use the excuse that I'm a collage student, so I can't afford the month bills of full service, so that's why I don't answer your calls :-P...then I got spend $700 on a Note when I already have a iPhone 4. You will not see me at OWS! lol

Is it normal to be waiting like a little giddy school boy by the door with your laptop waiting for the FedEx truck?

I love playing blitz on Facebook. Also like it on iPhone. On this phone, with flash 10. It seemed that it played fine on the desktop site. Now its super slow and not worth playing.

[HD2 General] Sklar:
Hi, my phone has been having problems since this morning. I am running 6.5 and everytime I press the home button, it takes me to the 'NaviGuide' homescreen. This is at the least, very annoying, so I tried to hard reset my phone, and nothing changed, the phone was restored, but the home button still brought up the 'NaviGuide' home isstead of the 6.5 one. I also then tried to connect to the computer through USB, and perform Task29 but the USB isn't even recognized in bootloader, and I have tried 2 different working USBs! Please help, I have never has problems with this phone before, and I'm worried it may be a hardware issue.

Thanks in advance, Joe.

I think u should flash the radio again. I also faced this issue after upgrading to CM7, but as they suggested, I flashed the radio again and now it's working.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J0s3f:
Well, in CM7 it works for me.

Anyways, which radio are you using?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J0s3f:
There is even a Thread at the Motorola Forums about this.

http://community.developer.motorola...o-Location-Accuracy-on-Gingerbread/td-p/17116

So I think there is no way of fixing this, without changing the code. Has anyone a working build setup of the Motorola Kernel and can give me a hint how to build it?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rahul_M:
Hi,

I faced the same problem. After lot of searching, I found this thread http://code.google.com/p/atrix-dev-team/issues/detail?id=239 .

So this gps bug is/was official in gingerbread builds. It is related to nmea library. I replaced the nmea library from 1.8.3 version as suggested in the thread. Below is the download link.

https://github.com/Atrix-Dev-Team/android_vendor_motorola_olympus/downloads

Download the zip and extract it. You will find nmea library in the extracted folder Atrix-Dev-Team-android_vendor_motorola_olympus-cd417cd\proprietary\lib\libnmea.so

Backup your \system\lib\libnmea.so. Copy libnmea.so from zip folder to the sd card and put it in \system\lib using root explorer and change the permission to rw-r-r. Then reboot or if you try to access any gps app, gui will itself reboot. After that no-accuracy bug disappears.

NB: I am new to atrix, so don't know if this info is already posted in some thread. This solution worked for me, so I am posting it here. I am on GB 2.3.4/ 4.5.91.MB860.ATT.en.US/baseband N_01.77.30P
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J0s3f:
Thank you very very much for finding this!

I tried the same with the lib from the CM Atrix release, but it failed!

Now everything works on my Atrix :D :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
Hi guys. I realise this is a rather old thread now, so hope I can still get some advice.

I'm a developer, and was wondering why my atrix was always showing an accuracy of zero, when using a LocationListener.

I tried this solution, replacing the /system/lib/libnmea.so file with the one in the link, but it hasn't worked.

Now, depending on which app I'm using, I just get messages saying that GPS is not available. I think the apps that do still work are just using the network provider updates. Also, my code tells me that GPS is not available.

I've rebooted, etc. I've checked the GPS settings. My version is 2.3.4

Is there anything else I can try? Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
If you get message that GPS is not available then something is wrong with your GSP. I had GPS lock problem (satellites are visible in GPS Status app) and solved it with flashing 36p radio. Sometimes is enough just to reflash the same radio.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
Thanks for the response. Is there a link where this is described in detail? Although I've rooted my device, I've never done more than that, and these things are all a bit new to me.

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

Also, one other thing that occured to me... is the replacement lib file I downloaded still the same file that was being suggested back in January when this thread was started?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
It's based on my experiences and many others. I just uploaded file that I use.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23255832/libnmea.so
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
Tried that but same issue, I guess it was the same file, thanks though.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
Did you try to flash radio?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
No - I honestly have no idea how to do that. I asked above if there was a link to this. I did find a guide but it looks like a complex and risky proces...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
I didn't get it what you are asking for :)

Here you can find CWM flashable radios (end of first post). Procedure is simple and quick, just flash like rom or anything else. I use 36p radio.

Be sure that battery is 100% and NEVER interrupt radio flashing procedure.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
Do I need the bootloader unlocked? That's what has put me off so far...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
Yes.

Procedure is also quite simple with the same recommendation about battery and interruption. You can find what you need on the same link.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezH:
Well I just scanned through nine pages on that thread and didn't really see any instructions! But I guess this is a different question and covered elsewhere and I'll just have to search around.

Problem is, it's a daunting prospect the first time you come across this stuff, there seem to be so many threads/questions/warnings/problems... I'm sure you know what I mean. I need to hire a local phone-handy-man - anyone based in London?!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
Well, I'm glad to help but this conversation turns to be waste of my time. Is it so hard to read THE BEGINNERS (N00B) GUIDE!!! N00BS LOOK HERE FOR YOUR HOW TOs? Then find Automatic bootloader UNLOCK/ROOT for AT&T 1.26/1.57/1.83/4.5.91

Probably after all links you're going complain for broken download link. But guess what, that's why I gave you link to my backup links.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taylorzhang:
Searched around, and find Importing from UK is about $695, shipping included (Handtec or Clove). While Expansys offers $750, Newegg offers $760. The difference is more than $50

So my focus is on warranty. Can we get US warranty when importing from UK?

Is expansys-us's warranty really US warranty or they also send it back to UK? How about Newegg?

Which one would you choose? Can anyone give better offers?

I'm on ATT and have to use it in China so I need the unlocked version

Decisions, please!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
I don't know how you're paying, but with Google Checkout, they charged me over $20 for foreign currency, so it comes out to be closer.

Also amazon has a few 3rd party sellers who sell it for cheaper - and offer warranty.

Even if they offered warranty from UK, it would be expensive to ship it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taylorzhang:
Didn't go through the whole process, stopped at checkout page and chose shipping to US and see price at 445 pounds. Thanks for the notice for additional fees.

BTW, will there be 8% tax charged when going through custom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] listairee:
I believe eXpansys do offer warranty but I have no idea how they are doing their warranty. However, based on my experience, I feel safer getting mine from eXpansys mainly because they have an office based here in US and they are well known for their good customer service (at least for me). So I am more comfortable getting it from them. That's just my opinion though :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taylorzhang:
Just found a better deal from Negri, original price $739, additional coupon $35, so only $704. How about warranty from Negri?

Update, looks like Negri needs people to pay at least $715.5, but this price is still okay.

That will be a huge steal, but is it possible?

If not, I think I will go by expansys next week after they have new stocks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
Considering it's also speculated VZ will have a period of exclusivity and I don't believe Best Buy sells international versions - they only sell you phones that the carriers they support sell, I highly doubt it.

it'll be $649-$699 for off contract price, just like all other brand new high end android device.

I bought mine from amazon for $735

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ZEF01A/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1Brite1:
They now have it for $643.50 with coupon for a pre-sale price. It's in my basket on holding debating what to do. This is for the Verizon version. I did ask that whether it was the 16 or 32GB since it just says Internal Memory 16/32. I also wanted to know how they would deliver it as it list overnight delivery, which would be a Saturday. However, if you read their fine print on all shipping, it will say, "If you choose Overnight Shipping you are getting a discount price on Second Day Air" and so on.

So, buy it now or wait?

Also, does anyone know how Verizon handles phones that you buy outright? Are you still locked into a 2 year contract? Or, do you pay monthly even if you have an account with them? I always get conflicting answers when I call or go into the stores. Thanks for your help and opinions. I know we all can't wait!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
That was for the presales. I got mine from them this weekend for the 704.

Supposedly both expansys and they will send off your phone to the uk for warranty work. Supposedly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] taylorzhang:
where do you get the $643? Is the verizon unlocked version a world phone? There's no point for an unlocked phone with only cdma/lte
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wrayrb:
I got mine from Expansys. They will take warranty returns back to ship for you to England for warranty service. That makes it easier than trying to deal with customs your self. :D (See a lot of warranty discussion in the General Forum, under Expansys USA Now Shipping thread, at (I think):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1359169

Also, in the same thread, there are reports that Negri does not offer a warranty. I don't know if true or not.:confused:

Remember - buyer beware, and check very carefully! Good luck.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
From Negri:

DEFECTIVE ITEMS: A defective item may be returned for repair within 25 days of date of purchase. If an repair is not possible we will offer a refurbished replacement. If this is not available you will be offered a store credit toward a future purchase. If you would prefer a refund (instead of a store credit), you may request a full refund, minus shipping charges. The exchange process typically takes 8-10 days to complete. Every (Non Carrier Branded) device comes with a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer. After 25 days our exchange/return policy has expired, you should contact the manufacturer for repair or for warranty replacement or exchange, if your device qualifies for this. Please contact the manufacturer to determine if the device you hold is covered under their warranty. If you would like to send your device to us to send to the manufacturer you are free to do so. Please request an RMA. This will delay the warranty process by 1-2 weeks and you will be charged shipping to and from the manufacturer. You will need the original invoice from us in order to have your item repaired or exchanged by the manufacturer. Warranty varies by manufacturer, but typically warranties are valid for 1 year from purchase. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST request an RMA in order to return any device.

So, it looks like you can send it to Negri, and they'll just send it to the repair center, but charge for shipping. Lame, compared to expansys. Since you might a well just send it to the repair center yourself.

But expansys has branches in many countries, so they probably can help out more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flash728:
Yea I work for verizon, and if you purchased your phone outright then its just a simple equipment change, with no contract extention, althought you would need a micro sim for it to work so you might have to go to a verizon store for one of those. I was considering getting a verizon one but because of the google wallet thing and the brand on the back and the unknown battery life with the LTE radio I think I'd rather not, I already ordered my International Gnex from Expansys with the $20 off voucher, so I got it for $729, not a bad deal if you consider the warranty assistance. The $20 off voucher code is 20offls

Don't forget to use BigCrumbs.com for 4% cash-back when ordering from Expansys-USA, which is essentially another $30 off.

How do we port gingerblur since its a backup?
[Bravo General] Junkyardjames87:
Use CWM and install it as a naindroid backup. Still have to wipe and such. Put the zip file somewhere on your computer and unzip it. Then it goes into clockwork on your sdcard and in the folder backup. The folder you want if you look closley at it is really a date. that's what goes into the folder backup. Then install it like you were going back and installing a backup. Need more help just ask.

To my knowledge it's not a Defy rom but one for Bravo. It may work on Defy but I don't know if it will or not. I don't even know where the actual rom is that the backup came from. I did try it for about three days but I didn't really click with it. A little too.......underdeveloped?...no....Just too basic for me. I like to mod, and mod, and mod some more. I can't do modding with this one the way I like to. Always have to do a CWM update to mod since I don't have it as a real rom. That help you out any? There's got to be some kind of program or an app that'll take nandroid backups and make them into rom but I woulden't even try to run them on my slooooow a$$ computer.
