[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oka1:
I found as a few others that the Nexus works fine... but... Not having all the correct drivers makes it not possible for the computer to recognize the phone.

So, this is a posting to provide the missing drivers that are the common culprit for preventing the computer from seeing the phone.

You should have SDK installed and make sure it is updated. I am assuming you know this and have done so.

The next thing is to make sure you have the latest Samsung drivers. The Latest I could find is the 1.4.8.0 version and can be found here:

http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/

If your phone is not being recognized by SDK (you can check by typing "adb devices" then it is likely you are missing one of the adb drivers.

This driver is equally important and can be found here:

http://pdanet.en.softonic.com/

Make sure you download the right version for your computer op system.

With those 2 installed the unlocking and rooting method by Paul O'Brien will work flawlessly and it can be found here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1362957

The PDA driver seems to be the one alot of people are missing. This should help all of you that have been experiencing this problem of SDK/ADB not seeing the phone.

Finally, for those who are not familiar with SDK, this video for the ASUS EPad is a good visual tutorial for entering sdk commands... If you watch the part between 6 min to 7 min 40 sec this is the part that will show you the commands and syntax necessary to help you enter the commands correctly:

Hopefully, this will assist some of the better postings on unlocking and rooting by providing us less experienced members with some additional sdk guidance.

I have several problems with HyperSensation-CM7.1-v1.2 ROM, I use faux AOSP kernel 0.2.5 beta 2 but tested and in other kernels.

1. With the video camera audio stream is writed with sampling rate of 8000 Hz (16000 Hz shows MX Player) .It's a very poor quality. How do I fix it?

2. 1080p are not playing smoothly. With the Android Revolution HD was not like this. Videos played back smoothly. How do I fix it?

3. Some files on MX Video Player falls off (do not want to play with the GPU) While the built-in PicVidew plays normally. How do I fix it?

4. I do not understand - whether in the ROM GPU UI rendering? And is it possible turn it on?
[HTC Sensation] forzanetti:
I'm currently using Bose MIE2 with my sensation, and is looking to pick up another set of in-ear earphones with working mic. My options are :

1. Klipsch S4i. I've read mixed reviews on whether the mic work with sensation. I know the volume button doesn't work, but that's fine with me. I just want to know if the mic works. I know I should get the S4a, but it's too expensive here.

2. ibeats. Again, will the mic work? the sensation XE beats (urbeats) is available for sale, but it costs twice as much as the ibeats.

3. Razer moray+. Someone already said the mic works. But I'm more concerned about sound quality.

4. AKG Q350

Any advice? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I use ibeats. Just got them actually and called up tmo to test the mic and worked fine in my initial tests.

Hi everyone ! This is the first I use Milestone2 . After I use Motorola softwear update for my MS2, but nothing happen. And then it only have the red logo motorola on the screen . I don't know how to do with it (. Plz help me !!

P/s: sorry for my English !
[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
If you can see the Motorola Red Logo, then probably you can enter Stock recovery. Try the following steps. You will lose all your data after this.

Power down your device.

Power it up holding power button + X simultaneously.

You will see an exclamation sign screen. At that screen, press vol down + vol up together.

You will see recovery menu. Choose wipe data there. (You'll lose all your data here).

Try to boot now. See if it works.

If it does not boot even after that then use this guide.

Is it possible to get beats audio on cm7?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] convolution:
don't. it's not that good
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] G1ForFun:
Yeah its called DSP Manager
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
Yeah, don't go out of your way to get it. I'm on the Virtuous Affinity ROM, and it has Beats. Just an equalizer tweak and maybe some noise reduction and speaker emulation. Mostly just marketing baloney.

If on a Honeycomb ROM, try Volume+, can be configured (unlike Beats), and installs simply as an APK. Paid app on the Market, or get it free from the developer's website:

http://androidaudiohacks.com/?page_id=2
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ccb04:
Yup what he said!! DSP actually works a lot better than beats
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ttamirt:
what's your DSP settings like? do you adjust it while you listen to something and stop where it feels good/right?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] convolution:
Bass boost and compression on moderate

EQ set in a U shape.

Sounds quite nice actually.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] snc74:
Yeah beats audio it's not the last coke in the desert. The preset using beats audio sounds mehh. Keep messing with dsp instead, sounds by far better imho!

Tmo g2 flavored with cm7 7.1 stable and Tiamat kernel combo for my butterly experience
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Abaddon:
Beats audio enhancement is just a preset renamed as beats. Hi marketing lol! Its just like srs and dolby. Raised the bass slightly higher and renamed. And lastly it need the htc music's framework I think so you need sense UI. Not sure though :)

Dsp is far better or use equalizer app or poweramp :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] kreizy:
I do not believe the type of stupidity Beats Audio. They are like any other handset. Everything is just a marketing tool. But certainly not such as headphones from food shop for € 2.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Abaddon:
I agree. even the fake beats that costs around $2.99 are better than the legit ones. :D

Screw the glam earbuds.

I'm down for only audiophilic earbuds from Klipsch or Bose of Seinnheiser.

I don't care if the earbuds look like crap, and other people judge me. What do I care about the opinions of people who spend $300 on beats headphones?

As long as it sounds good, then it's good.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ngc604:
EQ adjustments and other enhancements are designed to compensate for the quality of speakers. Buy good speakers/headphones and your ears will be happy. beats audio are crap all the way around. Beats are designed to attempt to sound good with limited power. ie from a cellphone or mp3 player.

klipsch is a step in a right direction. Bose is of course good. But i will say Shure is the best. IMHO. The problem is people attach headphones to a cellphone or mp3 player and expect them to perform as if they were attached to an amplified receiver. These devices plain and simple dont have alot of power. Skull Candy Inkd is a nice cheap headset. but for best sound think about this:

http://www.amazon.com/Upbeat-Audio-T613-BNC-Boostaroo-Application/dp/tech-data/B000EIWCFE

Runs on two AA batteries. Yeah its more **** to carry around but if you want good sound then you have to do what you have to do.

boostaroo and http://www.amazon.com/Shure-E2c-Sou...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326096216&sr=1-1 and i can listen to music all day long without ear fatigue and i can't hear the forklift i'm sitting on at all nor can i hear the lawn mower i'm walking behind.

pay more for good sound and good fitment or pay less for less sound and sub par fitment.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
Bose audiophilic? Ha, that's funny!

Try overpriced, cheap construction, and only popular due to marketing.

You know why you see so many people on airplane flights with Bose headphones? Because Delta gives them to their Platinum frequent fliers for free!

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 PM ----------

Amen, brother.

Bass boost sounds good to people who don't know anything about sound. Aside from the big bass drum, or symphony music, most forms of music doesn't have any instruments that fall into the real bass category, anyway. Its usually just low mids. So boosting bass just muddies up the sound.

The true offense is cramming a one-size-fits-all EQ curve down the throats of the public with marketing and a cool name/logo, and claiming it makes all forms of music sound better on all speakers and headphones. You're much better off tweaking the EQ manually, to your preference, with something like DSP Manager or Volume+. But that would require people thinking for themselves. And most people don't like to do that.

Beats sounds horrible. I won't claim to be an audiophile or anything close. But I know marketing crap when I hear it.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] tr4656:
Being a serious audiophile, I don't really use much headphones on my phone as its not that good of a music player and can't drive those headphones I normally use so I just a Meelectronic M9 for like 10$ on amazon or a Samson SR850(Superlux 668b is identical). Both are cheap and are much better than beats. If you want to pay more, get Audio Technica AD700 or Beyerdynamics.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Timmyfoxeh:
I wouldn't say I'm a complete audiophile, but I'm quite experienced with enthusiast-level music quality and I can assure you that anything associated with beats is only for marketing. The whole thing about making your music sound "like the artist intended" is just bull. The whole thing about beats is that they, on hardware level, tune the drivers to output way too overpowering bass, the mids and highs however sound muddy and low quality. The beats audio thing is basically a software equalizer preset that increases the bass, this isn't necessarily bad, but your stuck with their own preset which, especially on songs that aren't very bass heavy, does the opposite of the statement of making the music sound "like the artist intended".

I agree with previous comments, DSP manager is WAY better AND it lets you customize the sound for your liking rather than relying on an over-marketed brand to provide the best all-around preset.

I can also strongly recommend the PowerAMP music player app.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] brashmadcap:
THANK YOU. I don't understand how this is lost on everyone! How can people think that some software is really going to improve audio fidelity? lolwut? 95% of people are listening to 128-160k MP3s anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Timmyfoxeh:
I know right, one thing I still have a hard time understanding is that Apple still bundle any better earbuds with either the iPods or iPhones, given the price of at least the phones and their standards for quality on everything else. Honestly I've heard those leak the sound nearly louder than the actual listener hears it across rather big rooms.

Myself I've, despite the lack of hardware to really make a big difference on my phone, I've abandoned MP3 to instead update (nearly) my entire digital music collection with CD rips in the flac format.

But well, here in Sweden where I live, it seems like it's rare to find someone that actually knows what good music sounds like :(
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
Because most people just swallow what is shoved down their throats by marketers. Just give some feature a fancy name, and even better a logo and celebrity (or former celebrity, really) to back it, and people will flock to it.

I was shocked (and a bit disgusted) to find out that Beats headphones constitute 2/3 of the headphones market. Despite the fact that most reviews done by serious, experienced sources conclude that they are vastly overpriced, and far inferior in sound quality to most all the competition.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Krazy2much:
Right now I'm at around 4hr 27mins with 20% battery remaining but the highest I have ever been able to have it on for was roughly 6 hours, I do believe. On average though, I get around 5 - 5 1/2 hours screen on time before I need to charge it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Krazy2much:
Yeah, that sounds about right.

It seems the battery life for this phone is directly proportional to screen-on time. When it's in standby and not connected to 3G, 4G, or wifi; it uses almost no battery. Even when connected to something and in standby, it still barely uses anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Krazy2much:
Yeah, 3G in a low coverage (or almost any coverage) area puts one hell of a damper on battery life, from what I've noticed. I try and keep it off unless I'm using it or needing an app to do background updates or downloads of some sort.
