[Kindle Fire General] Nasut:
Rad3,

First, thanks for confirming that I'm crazy for telling my co-worker that the idea is not of much benefit. Second, I think she just wants to take a cheap tablet and run it like a more expensive one. And Finally, I just cut and pasted the e-mail verbatum with her comment included.

I didn't see anywhere in the artical where it stated that the conversion was possible either but her statement which I included was what sparked my request for information.

Thanks again. If the question comes up again I can offer to flash CM7 but that's it.
[Kindle Fire General] rad3:
Understand - though again the differences between the 'cheap' tablet and the 'more expensive' one lie in either hardware or the inability to subsidize as much, making the Nook more expensive. Once you get past hardware, I'd trend to think that you get more with the Kindle Fire.

Oh well...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
Why does the battery on this phone drain faster standby when connected to 4g than when connected to 3g? On my nexus s, the opposite was true. Why is this phone different?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thank Me Later:
I'm guessing the processor works harder when the device is on 4G. I don't know what the 4G sleep even does. I think it attempts to save power by sleeping if you're not using it? And the Epic Touch is known for that LOS problem. Lost of signal kills your battery because the phone is trying hard to grab some sort of signal. I don't have 4G on unless I have 4G connection and I am using it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Every phone I've used this has been the case. Does the Nexus still work and if so could you check it it so we could learn how to save battery power?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
Well I don't have a LOS problem on my epic because I never changed the kernel. I'm running stock rooted. Luckily I haven't experiences Los yet.

And the nexus comparison can't really be made because they have different hardware. It was a single core so it required less power for the CPU, as well as for the brightness (different display technology)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thank Me Later:
Have you thought about maybe getting some extended batteries? Look on amazon.com. Samsung has a 2000 mAh on there and Seidio has a 3200 mAh that comes with a new back cover because the battery makes your phone fatter.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
I don't have a problem with my battery life. I actually get fantastic battery life compared with some other users that are posting on xda. But my question was more of a technical one as to why 4g uses more power than 3g on this phone, when 4g used less power than 3g on the nexus s.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Are you in a fringe signal area? Is the phone constantly moving between 3g and 4g? 4g is not as kind on the vmbattery as 3g but I did notice a slight improvement on the EK02 update
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
I'm not in a fringe signal area, but even if I were, i don't think it would make a difference because i'd be comparing both phones in the exact same conditions. Thus, if all else is the same, the only variable (the only thing thats different) is the phone.

But thats good to know that the EK02 update improves it a bit. I'm still waiting for my OTA notification. Haven't received it yet :-/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I have both devices and you can't really compare the two. I have great 4g signal where I live. The Nexus has much weaker signal than Epic Touch for me. I did do the WiMax tweaks on ET4G to make it connect faster, changed timeout, and lowest signal detected so maybe that's why I am having better results. I mentioned fringe signal because if phone is bouncing between 3g and 4g, that crushes battery. PM me if you want my WiMax settings
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
John, could you guide me to where it shows us how to do the 4G tweaks? Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
lol thanks, i already did the wimax tweaks as well tho. After i noticed that it already takes more battery, i just said to myself "screw it, might as well milk it." i made my entryrx: -100, exitdelay: 7, and exitCINR: 2.

[TouchPad General] rohan32:
My Touchpad was working fine untill when I plugged it into my PC and it said I needed to format the drive. So I did a format to the reccomended FAT32 (as per Windows) and now even webOS isnt booting. At the time I did not have Android installed either.

I can boot into bootie mode, but neither novacom or webOS Doctor are recognizing my Touchpad. And when I boot up the tablet, I just end up looking at the HP logo, as webOS is not booting.

PLEASE HELP!
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
not that I actually have a solution.. but out of curiousity..

you REALLY formated your TP's harddisk from your Windows-PC?

Either way, you may have a look at the few threads around here. there where some threads about people who also had problems with doctoring..

Hello I did try to convert from rfs to ext 4 on JVT and galaxian ee kernel. I did use CF-root ext 4 tools apk. Now im quite freaked out because when I open the tool again I have inactive convert to ext4 and convert to rfs button (at first launch there wa active convert to ext4 button). Phone did go to cwm and restart. Now my question is did it suceed or something messed up ? Why I have inactive convert to rfs button and will I be able to convert from ext4 to rfs by other way ? Sorry im quite newbie when it comes to modding :D. Oh how to check if I hve ext 4 ? Yea yea i did search for it found that you type mount in terminal but damn what to look at ?

On quadrant I have 1816 if it help (but Ive read that its not good test to see if someone have ext4)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok then problem quite solved it failed I think. I really dont know why but when changing kernel from cf there is working root, then after some change like trying to convert to ext 4 or changing kernel in cwm root stops to work. Can someone tell me why everytime root for me is working only once ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
how to get chinese input in android? I am new to android.

I just downloaded google input IME from market place and installed, it is enabled in settings(languages), but keyboard did not change in messages and browser input. why?

any other apps will work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] assisterah:
The default way to change input method has been changed in ICS. Instead of long pressing at any text entry field, In ICS you will see a small keyboard icon in the left corner from the status bar when the keyboard shows up, then you can pull the status bar down and change the input method from there.

Google Pinyin IME is average. Some better options are sogou input and touchpal input. Sogou does not support ICS at this moment. But touchpal V5 works flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] citrix80:
I actually set default keybord to google pinyin, but then I cannot enable default english keyboard. what if I want to try other chinese keyboard? is there a way to enable multiple keyboard?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xinn3r:
What if I want stock ICS keyboard to have Chinese? Any way I can do that?

I really like the stock keyboard and I don't want to use third party keyboard if at all possible
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoshHK:
Also looking for this option....Surely there must be a way to switch to hand written chinese input via the stock ICS keyboard right ??? I realise that 3rd party apps are available but they are all terrible IMHO. Looking for something similar to how iPhone handles Chinese input....any ideas / suggestions ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
i'm using penpower, it not made for ics, as the writing pad does not fit the whole bottom half of the screen, but it works.

updated, just installed the ics version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
google voice input is the best. i use HK traditional.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cootek.smartinputv5&hl=en

touchpal is good too. they got chinese pack and handwriting pack.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minibeany:
go to System Setting > Language & keyboard > System Language. Then, scroll down and check PinYin option. You can choose handwriting too.

Later, when you're at a text box you will can toggle between English and Chinese using a "EN" key at left side of your spacebar.

[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
Just wanted to let everyone know that Bell is stating their LG Optimus LTE is actually the LG P930 Nitro HD (as per the box and the internal OS). Seems to be a bit of confusion on the 'Net. Anyone able to figure this out? Comparison??? Bell vs. AT&T
[LG Nitro HD] PearsonDKA:
Doesn't seem to be any sort of a huge difference? Seems basically the same to me other than a few things.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
Confusion?

The Optimus LTE is heavier, lacks the extra 2 GB ram, adds the 1700MHz spectrum so it is compatible with WIND, comes with only an 8GB TF SDHC card, no fm radio. some are big differences i would think?
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
if you go LG.com, it listed Optimus LTE p930 same as Nitro p930.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
specs?

If you look, the P930 has different specs than the LTE specs listed all over the 'Net. hence why i started this [Q] to clear up the 2 models conflicting with what Bell is sending out to customers vs. AT&T's Nitro HD P930.

My original [Q] is still unanswered: Bell is handing out the Optimus LTE 4G with boxes and firmware showing it is a P930, yet the specs for the P930 are different from what they are handing out. Which is the right P930??? Bell's or AT&T's?

There ARE differences. see my previous post for them.
[LG Nitro HD] blopez24:
Sorry little off topic what the hell happened to your phones lol. some are kia and others exploded.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
BOOM?!

Little off topic is true. maybe he's had bad luck or bad units or the zerglings got him?
[LG Nitro HD] PearsonDKA:
Going off topic/the record, I have had the worse luck when it comes to phone this year.

-Atrix sorta burst into a tiny flame while charging

- 1st BB drowned, 2nd had faulty keys and the 3rd one permanently froze

- Whatever bugs/defects that were reported with the Sensation, happened to me

- The Torch and Bold basically died and wouldnt charge or turn on.

Thankfully, I have the PEP plan from Best Buy <3. Technically saved me over $3000 haha
[LG Nitro HD] aimhelix:
Wow, that's interesting. I knew they had differences in software but I didn't think they had some differences in hardware too, considering that they call the Optimus LTE a Nitro HD. Does my Nitro HD have a radio/FM antenna? How does one go about using it?
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
Optimus LTE and LG Nitro is the same phone! both phone listed as P930 on lg.com !

optimus lacks the extra 2gb ram? on my nitro, it listed Internal storage available space 1.53GB. i not even sure nitro has 4gb to begin with.

so nitro has fm radio? the nitro never comes with headset (att is getting cheap! haha) and there is no FM app preinstalled on Nitro!
[LG Nitro HD] MerlF:
Bell vs AT&T

Check out GSMArena. They have both phones listed and they are different. One is manufactured for Bell Canada and one is manufactured for AT&T. "They are different". The AT&T model has a radio with RDS the Bell one has no radio.. The AT&T model has only the one "LTE 700" frequency. the Bell has 700 and 1700. AT&T has 4 gig but Bell only 2 gig. Bell Canada LTE is rated at 75 Mbps, AT&T 21 max. There may be other differences. Check the site for yourself and see.

I am still debating which new phone to purchase and leaning to the LG. My current phone does not have the worlds greatest battery life so not getting a full day out of the LT is not a major concern. And talking for three hours,I don't think so.
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
you know how to check out gsmarena but not att.com, lg.com or get the Nitro user manual from lg.com?? radio is never mentioned on nitro!

just cus it' on gsmarena, it must be accurate?

att version maxed out at 21mb? is there such a thing as LTE maxed out 21mb? haha

21mb is hspa+

I just did a speedtests on nitro and get 27mb!
[LG Nitro HD] dalamchops:
not exactly reliable sources...

If your phone doesn't say "AT&T" above the screen, then you're getting the Optimus LTE. Only AT&T has the Nitro HD (name wise), and unless they're gonna bother switching out the glass/digitizer, you didn't get the nitro hd.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
New Thread for Optimus LTE??

So based on each carriers website, and the manufacturer admitting they are different models, would it be out of line to start a separate thread for the LTE P930 vs. the Nitro P930 and set the naming convention to differentiate between the two models and XDA support?

Can a Mod give their input on this please??? I am just trying to clarify this before this thread gets bloated with unnecessary posts that will eventually lead to confusion and eventually blurs the line between the two models and set up some sort of clarity for future posts and support...
[LG Nitro HD] dalamchops:
dude, it doesn't even matter. The Nexus S had i9023, i9020t, and i9020A and they coexist fine. The difference in radio(freq) just means you can't put out roms that changes the baseband.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
don't you mean the fact the Optimus LTE has only 2GB of internal memory vs. 4GB of internal memory on the Nitro is also a large difference as well as the lack of the dual LTE frequencies vs the Nitro? or do we need to go further into the other hardware differences (ie: screens etc?)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] reymunoz:
So here's the plan....in my head at least...and I will greatly appreciate some feedback on...ummm..I guess the validity of it working:

Picked up a Plus with a new number for the data plan....gonna sign up with google voice for another number...pay the fee for keeping the number forever...searched the forums and found out that an app called groove ip to use google voice on the tablet($3.99 I believe)...and viola...keeping the tablet unrooted and my primary phone for calls and texts as I can easily carry it in my pockets.

Sadly, I can not try this out till my Plus arrives in the mail on Dec 20th. Only drawback right now....losing my number I've had since 2001.

What do you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
Had same setup with Dell streak 7, with groove up and sipdroid. These apps wouldnt stay connected all the time, and call quality was good at times but mostly subpar. 7.0 plus is best out right now until 7.7 is released.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] reymunoz:
I am also thinking the lack of MMS with Google voice is gonna bother me too...I honestly use my phone for voice calling for like 30 minutes a month...mainly email and text messaging is what I use for my contact. I just wish it wasn't locked down with out the phone function.

Thanks for the input
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] perlmeister11:
I am using this setup but instead of two numbers, I use my google voice number as my groove IP number. One number for voice/texts.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] reymunoz:
Has anybody tried porting over their old mobile number to google? I have to pay a $50 ETF and the $20 google fee, but I am thinking that will be the way to go. I guess what I am wondering how seamless that transition would be...would it be something worth doing? How long would I be in the dark until it worked is another question I have because in reading the FAQ at Google it said at least three days sometimes.

What are you guys doing about MMS messages...as it is something I recieve quite a bit. Does it alert the you, or the person that sent it, that it was not able to go through?

How would you guys compare the experience overall with having just a regular android phone like a HTC Sensation. Although I hardly ever use the voice function, I hate that the one time I would need it, that I would be without it.

Thanks again for the help and answers.

hey all,

just installed the newest freshly squeezed miui and am real happy with it. except one thing. the browser icon is just a brown square. tried installing opera mobile, but its icon was a red square. it really messes with the look on my screen ;)

is there anything I can do? tried clearing launcher cache, but didn't work

thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 007K:
Download a new set of icons over at MIUI android, the Kowalski set looks awesome. And simply reapply the theme.

If its a no go, recommend a reflash and check MD5 of the Rom aswell
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dovy:
yea, I agree. that icon set does look good. anyways I applied it. this seems to fix the opera mobile icon, but not the default browser. might be the icon set didn't have an icon for miui browser

it doesn't matter now really, ill just hide it and use opera. thanks for help
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommy2601:
unmount and then after a while mount your sd card from setting,this might also bring back the missing icon

[Acer Iconia A500] Madelynn28:
I picked this up on sale the other day. I like it but when I press the home button it takes be back to the default launcher screen, can't figure out how to fix that (I have used open home to make it default).
[Acer Iconia A500] BigSketchySeaBeast:
ADW Settings>General Behavior>Gestures>Home Button Binding

From there you can pick what you want the home button to do...hope this helps man..
[Acer Iconia A500] Madelynn28:
Tried that but its not sticking... hmm thanks anyways

Ok now I see the problem. Using home switcher when selecting my default home app it is not keeping the adw launcher. For some reason it is reverting back to the stock android launcher.

Fix its, just cleared everything in manage apps...
[Acer Iconia A500] k2thejx5:
A problem i have

I just installed ADW launcher on my tab and for whatever reason the damn "menu" icon won't go away on my homescreen. Its right next to the multitask button and it refuses to go away. I have seen many people who use adw not have this problem any ideas?
[Acer Iconia A500] jon-.-:
When you first installed adw and pushed the home button for the first time, you should have been given an option (pop up menu) to either go to the stock launcher or adw, and under those two options theres a checkbox to make it your default choice. You may have accidently checked it and went to the stock launcher.

I'd try going into settings/applications/all and find the stock launcher and if you select it than there should be an option to clear defaults for that app.

I know the last few updates for adw has had some issues so I'm not sure if this is one that people are complaining about.

But what I did was create a shortcut to show/hide the action bar.

Just long press the screen, than go to launcher actions and select hide/show action bar. I also replaced the icon with a transparent png so it's invisible on my screen.
[Acer Iconia A500] k2thejx5:
Thanks for the response but that isn't the problem here look at my picture. See the icon? it won't go away
[Acer Iconia A500] jon-.-:
I see what youre saying.

This must be something they added with the latest updates, but I can see why they did. If you use adw on a phone pressing the menu button brings up options for the launcher. These options are customizable by the way and actually come in handy. So maybe their just trying to make it more uniform to phone versions.

But I dont think theres any way you could get rid of it, adw is calling for the os to display the button, so unless theres a setting with in the app or unless you edit the apk youre stuck with it lol. The older versions like the one Im running now dont have this, so thats why you didnt see other users with the issue.
[Acer Iconia A500] k2thejx5:
Ahh that makes sense thank you. Would you mind telling me the version you are running?
[Acer Iconia A500] jon-.-:
Version 1.3.3.1 :).
[Acer Iconia A500] k2thejx5:
Thank you! ill make sure I "legally" obtain this version to try out!
[Acer Iconia A500] maddscientist82:
Solution. ;)

I have been using ADW Launcher EX version 1.3.3.55 and I think this solution will work with other/older versions as well.

Search the Market for: Home Manager. Once you install and run this app it will give you the option to clear default then select the the default home you want. I've been using this myself and can assure you it works. I suppose it enables a service that ensures the default home settings 'stick'. Anyway once you're done and it works then you can disable the the status/notification bar option in the app as it doesn't need them running to function properly. Happy Home Skinning! ;)
