Dear /,

Thank you for signing up to be alerted to HP TouchPad inventory updates.

November. Those bundles sold out in mere minutes.

We just received a small shipment of HP TouchPads that will be

made available, Thursday, December 15th, at 2:30pm Eastern Time.

They will only be available on our website by going to the following link:

www.tigerdirect.com/sectors/campaig...TT&cm_mmc=email-_-Main-_-WEM2933-_-tigeremail

Our call center does NOT have access to this inventory. Again,

you can only purchase the TouchPads online by going to

www.tigerdirect.com/sectors/campaig...TT&cm_mmc=email-_-Main-_-WEM2933-_-tigeremail

Now, we DO NOT have enough HP TouchPads to satisfy everyone who

has signed up to get these HP TouchPad alerts. So, we wanted to

give you a quick heads up before it goes live Today at 2:30pm ET.

Remember, it's likely to sell out within about 30 minutes, if not

sooner.

www.tigerdirect.com/sectors/campaig...TT&cm_mmc=email-_-Main-_-WEM2933-_-tigeremail

In the event you try to purchase and it sells out, just know

we're continuing to try to source more HP Touchpads bundles. As

===============================

EXPECTATIONS

Due to overwhelming demand for this product, it's expected to

sell out in less than 30 minutes. That means that it may say

"SOLD OUT" before 3pm. Also, we're limiting this inventory to

one unit per customer. Sorry. No rainchecks. No backorders.

Once we sell out, that's it.

Too bad you have to buy the other items with the Touchpad.
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
true, there have been better bundles.. but again.. 250$ for everything is still a great price..

I'm from Europe and around here there was no chance to get one @ Firesale price.. I had to pay 250€ just for the TP and a case... which still seems to be an pretty good deal to me
[TouchPad General] bozidar0:
Thanks,

Even though they overcharge for crap you don't need, I'll still be buying one!
[TouchPad General] kitsunisan:
This deal may sell out in seconds, make sure you're sitting at your pc ready to go when it hits.
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
true.. monitoring the website with browser addons might also help.. I use page monitor when using chrome, which alerts me when the page is updated..

but better be prepared.. would even consider reading through the thread from the guy who wasnt able to snag one from ebay.. some people wrote down how they were able to purchase one even though they had severe problems again..
[TouchPad General] robot1000:
Isn't 2.30pm eastern time in 10 minutes, if so why does the countdown still show over 5 hours to go?
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
haven't been able to go online and watch the whole sale.. but sometimes countdown isnt showing correct.. guess that they had server issues again..

for what I see the whole sale is over now, and everything is sold out, so the sale definately took place..

Were you able to grab one?
[TouchPad General] calash:
I was just able to add one to my cart, and the checkout area says "in-stock".

Edit: The 249 one. The 299 bundle is showing as out.
[TouchPad General] pmknking:
I was able to add the 299 bundle to my cart just now and it showed in green text that it was in stock.

I was looking at the printer and on the right side of the page it had a link for the bundle.

I added it to cart thinking it was going to say "error" or "out of stock" but nope, let me through.

Oh well, I purchased the 249 bundle shortly after reading this post.
[TouchPad General] cfsteak:
They still had the $249 bundle 20 minutes ago, I almost sprung for one on ebay last night, I really want that wider portrait view you get with these that the Asus and Acer lack, now see if it gets shipped
[TouchPad General] Puenos:
Well that's great to hear :)

I thought I might me too late on forwarding this..

and yeah, I too prefer it's portrait over that of Acer or Asus :)
[TouchPad General] Yakul:
I ordered one today at 3:40pm ET, and I got the order confirmed and I was surprised. I ready to buy something else and had almost given up on the touchpad. I just hope they dont cancel my order.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garradalexanderkiss:
Hey guys. Ive been using this forum for a long time. Just recently registered to start actively participating. Ive rooted and used roms before, so i am not completely green.

Anyway i got a sprint samsung epic 4g touch yesterday. I have already rooted once using odin and gone back to stock.

What i cant find anywhere is why certain roms can apparenly be flashed onto the phone with odin and others require cwm. I have not been able to get cwm installed yet.

This is my first post so thanks and please be gentle.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
In theory any ROM that can be flashed in CWM can be flashed in ODIN. It just takes different setup work.

In practice, it is easier to flash ROMs through CWM if that is all you are updating.

Personally I only use ODIN if I want to update many different components (for example modem, kernel, and ROM) to a known state as it is more convenient to use a single package.

For day to day stuff usually use CWM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Magicspell:
You may know this already, but easiest way I've found to install CWM is by following the instructions in this thread:

How do u do guys?

I used to be a Samsung i900 "Omnia" user for more than 3 years.

I just purchased a Galaxy Nexus from Expansys USA.

Now I feel totally lost cause Android esp. ICS does not have a start menu! :D

I need to learn how to use this thing some how and as fast as possible thru books or tutorials or videos or guides here on the forum.

Also I need the KOOLEST apps ever on android market. cause I wanna piss off my iPhone4 friends.

I wanna become the hippiest Galaxy Nexus user of the planet! ;D

thanx for all the help.

Goodbye Omnia but rest assured that your love is still in my heart.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flakz0r:
Thats a pretty amazing upgrade, from WinMo 6.1 to the best Android phone running the latest and greatest Android version!

Start installing some apps from the market, check out the top apps on the several sections.

Add your social networks accounts to the phone and add some widgets to your home screens. From personal experience, Android users are always testing new layouts and widgets :D

Try a few games and witness the power of the Nexus! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371918 is a user-made thread of people's opinions on what apps are "must needed."

Android is pretty simple to use, may take a few days to get used to it. But with ICS, its definitely more user friendly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xyphan:
that's pretty impressive. i remember when i switched from the imagio over to a fascinate, but switching from an omnia to the g nexus? huge! there are plenty of apps lists out there. just remember to check the permissions before you install anything... if you see a game that has the ability to make phone calls... might want to do some research.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2ksilverbullet:
I'm coming from an Omnia II (Verizon SCH-i920) so we're about in the same boat. I've had to assist my wife with her D2G so I picked up Android pretty quick. I was hooked, went out and bought a Xoom, now have a VZW Galaxy Nexus. Lovin' it so far!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbeebe24:
Android is not that easy to use, especially coming from another os, or if you've never used it before. There is a getting started guide that comes with the nexus, but I'm the type of guy that tinkers with every button until I figure things out :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NewMossie:
First off, "Yo Dawgz" went out around the same time WinPho 6.1 became obsolete. :rolleyes:

I would start off with trying out free featured apps from the market. There are tons of cool stuff you can get for free. Too bad you just missed the 0.10 app specials.

Finally, ROOT AND FLASH!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
Congratulations on purchasing intelligently.

Market download #1, angry birds so you can catch up to the last 2 years of smartphone gaming in one fell swoop.

Miui just released this app which will let you choose any of the Miui lockscreens. Some don't work due too resizing but I found the the honeycomb styled work really well.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
is there a way to ptevent the chinese letters from appearing?
[HTC Amaze 4G] evohog:
I don't think so but I'm trying.
[HTC Amaze 4G] uzk:
seem like there is a bug for Amaze, u could download Multitouch test, and test it after you installed the locker app. you will know what problem is
[HTC Amaze 4G] evohog:
Here's a couple nice ones that for nicely and work well. Just find the pics in the app if you like them.
[HTC Amaze 4G] imran7799:
How do I get this.

Hey I am new to Android. How do I get this screen on my phone.?
[HTC Amaze 4G] evohog:
There's a link in the 3rd post, download the app and use it to find the one you like. Some dint work right but alot do.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
I like this. It has similar features to GoLocker, but this is stand alone (GoLocker requires GoLauncher installed :()

So far every theme I find has Chinese letters and the ones that don't have Chinese letters don't fit the screen resolution. Still browsing, though at least there are a lot of choices.

Edit: is there any customization for the second button in some of the themes? Default messaging app is fail for me. :(
[HTC Amaze 4G] jeepers007:
I loaded this and the theme I like just fine this morning. Easy to use and works well, but is missing the ability to pin unlock the screen... Hopefully, the developers add this in soon.

if you like my works, feel free to buy me a beer
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
Validating file 'device/motorola/sholes/sholes-keypad.kcm'...

No errors.

made a new kcm file according to googles migrating to ICS docs.

also hacked nf_qtaguid from googles ICS kernel into 2.6.32, it probably won't work right though
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
progress update

MMS is working. alos noticed that red and blue are swapped.

starting pvrsrv via init.sholes.rc causes graphics to be black.

starting after boot via adb doesn't. weird.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
You sir, are my hero, even if it's not fully functional you have made it farther than anyone else, so far only one other person has tried over on droid forums and he gave up so far
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
sdcard works, adb root doesnt. teh process never respawns probably usb related.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
so I booted it up and was confused at first by the lack of touch screen and yellow colors
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
I'm trying to get teh ts working still, using this changeset as a guide

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] tennyleaz:
Any progress in ICS should be appreciated!

Looking forward to ICS for milestone.:D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
new build, touchscreen fixed.

bootanimation is disabled for testing.

keyboard is still weird, alt and B keys aren't working

www.mediafire.com/?k4c4mhb8pq37gjj

also, for a good laugh check settings->apps->running->memory

http://www.mediafire.com/?m3yjdp2e329cknb

boot_EGL_broken.img -<only difference is this starts pvrsrvinit in init.sholes.rc

i tried with and without gralloc.omap3.so in /system/lib

boot.img can be flashed easily like this:

ken@kitchen:~/android/kernel$ ~/Desktop/sbf_flash -f -r --boot ~/Desktop/build/boot.img --recovery ~/Desktop/recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.1-sholes.img ~/Desktop/MC1_A855_1282081087_Recovery-Only_SPRecovery_0.99.3b.sbf

if installing gingerbread gapps do this through adb:

255|shell@android:/ # mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

shell@android:/ # rm /system/app/SetupWizard.apk
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
You are a monster, you are making great progress I'm going to half to load your latest build up later
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ChungWingKeung:
is that also for milestone :confused:

thx
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
So I flashed your newest build and stayed on it for 20 minutes exploring everything now that the touch screen was working.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ammika13:
I installed it on my droid. Very nice progress you have going on here. A lot of things work and of course a lot don't. For people who are too afraid to flash, heres a list of what I noticed is working.

Working:

Phone Calls (Speakers don't work)

SMS

3G works great

touchscreen

sms

downloads from browser (installed facebook.apk but couldn't log in because alt key doesn't work on keyboard)

doesn't work:

screen properly, no blue, the yellow looks kinda cool though

screen orientation, to get portrait view you need to slide out the keyboard otherwise its stuck in landscape mode

no onscreen keyboard, only physical works, except like mentioned alt and b dont for some reason

wifi wont turn on

bluetooth wont turn on

gps, couldn't find on googles homepage but browser still works without it

camera

usb doesnt work, mac won't detect it at least when i plug it in

network doesn't display proper network, T-CDMA 64 instead of Verizon

music app doesn't work, its froyo's music app, i think its because the speaker doesn't work not certain

no vibrate mode? only silent mode and ringer doesnt work

neither speakers work, nor does the microphone i believe

anything else i mightve missed probably doesn't work

overall this is amazing progress and it really doesn't run that bad. give it a shot and play around with it for a few minutes, just don't forget to nandroid!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
also no hardware acceleration, screenshot force closes the UI. but it is much smoother than I thought this really proves to all those people saying that ICS wouldn't work at all, someone has it booted, I can't wait to see the progress this guy can make. so far he is doing an extremely good job.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ammika13:
whats the button combo for screenshot? i tried volume up+power and volume down + power, neither did anything i just couldnt remember what it is for nexus
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
I'm pretty sure i'ts power button+down
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
Some of these problems are simple:

Rotation error is /data/system permission error

Adding this to init.sholes.rc fixes it

Chmod 775 /data/system

Alt and b problems are errors in /system/usr/keychars/sholes-keypad.kcm

The patch I used to fix graphics has a define to ovverride EGL config, this might fiz colors

I've seen several patches for legacy audio support floating around, haven't tried any yet.

Virtual keyboard missing is because sholes device makefile inherits from core.mk instead of one of the more complete ones. A complete build will require a larger system partition or other trickery.

Other things will probably be harder
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
something else I noticed with signal and data, it stayed gray. but other than a few quirks it's still impressive I don't stay on it because I only have one phone but I can't help but to flash just to mess around with it
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] inches0:
I Love You
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] vikcon:
BOSS, you are amazing!

Hats off

Wish you a merriest Christmas & Happy Holidays

Eagerly waiting for Milestone build of ICS
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] BrUhNiGGs:
why is it rotated horizontally? I just flashed it and i cant get it to go vertically.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] bmx24:
go back 1 or 2 pages the updated build is in there the one in the op is outdated and try the one that has the market fix in it :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
infernox51 made a build off of this which mostly works but with iffy cell connection (sometimes loses all signal after a reboot) along with the other known issues with the main build- camera doesnt work, landscape keyboard always pops up even with slide out keyboard, launcher doesnt work too great, and gallery app doesnt work (use something like quickpic)

im trying to upload a more permanent link to it since infernox51s dropbox link expired...all credit to infernox51 and kfazz

Anyone have a video of this running? I'm really considering buying this phone, but would like to know how iCS performs on it OC'd.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hijackerjack:
Go to page 5 or 6. I posted a video of one of the older builds around 4 days ago.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ace42:
Thanks, I'm still deciding b/t the OG Droid & D2 atm, but since both are cheap I just want the one that has a functional ICS build.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
get the og if youre gonna get one of those...og has an unlocked bootloader and much more developer support and is incredibly durable...btw unlocked bootloader= custom overclock kernels...for example i always run a 1.25 GHz kernel lol
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ace42:
Thanks again, wasn't aware of the D2 being locked, guess that makes the OG win by default. Like many I don't have the cash to buy a GN, so I can make due with a ICS build for now. And forgot to ask what clock speed does this ROM use?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
i believe it uses the standard 600MHz...however gingerbread overclock kernels work just fine so you can overclock it up to 1250MHz if your phone can handle going that fast
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ace42:
Surprised it's that smooth for that low freq, and I saw a vid of the browser being pretty smooth too.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] rixter13:
First I'd like to say Merry Christmas to all, and thanks to the people who provided this rom on the Droid 1.

No on to the question at hand, I have no cell network, it seems like the rom has 'locked' itself into airplane mode, however, my wifi works fine (IIRC airplane mode disables ALL network adapters) I have done a complete reflash, rebooted several times, changed all sorts of settings trying to get this to work, but have had no success. Is there a permission that is preventing airplane mode from turning off, or is it still just a bit buggy? Would changing to another kernel help anything?

Thanks,

RiX
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] durandgir:
I know that if you reboot at all it will lose all connection
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
this was a bug that has recently been fixed in cm, i've brought the fix into my latest build so soon this issue will go away
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kfazz:
these are all the apps that include platform certs. all the other apps can live on the data partition, this should free up some space in /system for including other things.

also signal bars being grey/blue is an indicator of whether or not google services are communicating. them being grey probably means gapps are incomplete or not working properly.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] rixter13:
Awesome, Thanks!

Is there anything I can patch on my current setup to have it back to working condition? Or just wait until your next awesome release?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
btw i think the setup wizard also needs installed to /system...i had to use the older gapps you posted because the newer one would cause setup wizard to force close constantly...the main difference i saw between the 2 versions of the gapps is that the first one had setup wizard installed to /system and the other had it installed to /data

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ASAM123:
Major problem is that I need google maps and facebook. I wish there was a way to get them to not lag.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] manuski:
I used holo launcher and still got that delay when pressing the home key to go home. If its the system storage then its probably hopeless for ics to work cause we need those appz to have function Droid. Just to have all Android functions
