[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holgalee:
Thanks for the reply, Soonr! I can't wait! It's been announced on CES. :)

Hmm...I just chatted with Ryan on Soonr's website and he says it should be out end of the month. Yay!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwansuryo:
Now it's been the end of the month, but still no news about Soonr Scribble for Galaxy Note. Why it takes too long time?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holgalee:
I don't know either. Smoothing out some bugs I suppose...

Hope they keep to their word. I've been checking S Choice and Samsung Apps twice a day for the past few days.

Soonr Scribble

I was just checking on the market to see if it showed up, IT DOES!!!!

But... not letting me download it yet, says its not compatible with any of my devices:

check out the link and let me know if you can download:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HasC:
Soonr Scribble Now available on Android Market, Get it while its Free!!!!

Once installed, you will need to create an account with them using an email address before you can use the app, have not used the app yet so cant comment on how good or bad it is.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holgalee:
Thanks, Hasc. I'm the OP and I downloaded the app this morning! :) It's available on the android market as well as via Samsung apps.

Before you can use the app, it will download a What is Soonr.ppt file (7.3MB). It took me a while to realise that (You'll also need to register for an account first.) So you do need to have your Wifi or 3G turned on. Be forewarned that if it's free Wifi that you're using, the downloading can take quite a while.

After you have scribbled on the file, you will also need Wifi or 3G to upload (=update) the file. I chose "Save for offline use in settings", and it updates the file once I turn on my Wifi.

I think the app works fairly well though I would have preferred a tutorial or a more helpful screen than what you see when you first start out. I'll also like to see an eraser instead of just an undo button, as I can't make changes after the file is updated. Scribble to text conversion will also be great, and I hope that's not a pipe dream!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holgalee:
Any thoughts about this app? :) I haven't used it much, frankly, so I would like to hear from others.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samstables:
Had a quick play with it on the GNote (Scribble version) and it does work well and seem useful BUT I personally think the pricing is too high (unless you are guaranteed to use it frequently enough to justify it of course).

I might be interested if there was a "per GB" pay as you go model, but wouldn't be using it enough to justify EUR 9.99 a month minimum.

Uninstalled already!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inertiaholic:
so far i have *not* found it to be user friendly...i could not seem to get it to work by just playing around.

there seems to be a battery drain with the program too.

after one day, i uninstalled it. i was particularly disappointed as i was very much looking forward to the program.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
after 10 minutes of regular browsing the top part of the screen where you listen to starts to get warm and gets even warmer after more usage also i the back part where the camera is feels really warm too does anyone else have problems like this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ysuleman:
Yes I also have this problem, but I only when I switched from Jugs to BeastMod with Bullet...

I am about to switch back to Juggernaut, but I am still deciding on the kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Branso07:
I'm on stock and I notice that to.the to part of the screen and the camera area gets warm

Sent from my SGH-T989
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
yeah im running on stock too i didnt root my phone yet
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Blue1k:
I never get heating with synergy kernel. Only with bullet. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
synergy and bullet heats my phone up

faux kernel seems to do fine atm..

now it's fine if its warm..just make sure it doesnt become hot to the touch
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ysuleman:
I will try Jugg with Synergy... How about Faux Kernel? Anybody out there?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1_enthusiast:
...ur heat paste might be gone...in the laptop world, i know CPU over heat if your thermal paste is gone or applied the wrong way...which is what i'm thinking happen to ur phone...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dwayner79:
I get real hot when using google nav. Other then that, it is fine.

CM7 alpha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
lol.. thermal compound is only used in stuff that requires an agent

thermal compound itself does not dissipate heat, infact it prevents some of it from getting thru, what it does is that it makes it easier for the processor to transfer heat to heatsink, but in the case where there is only a processor thermal compound is not needed

please do your research before trying to misdirect people.

---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------

synergy and bullet is essentially as bas as each other for me

i would recommend faux tho, my phone seems fine with it so far
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1_enthusiast:
i dint misdirect him anything if you read carefully i say i THINK...but thanks for that info now i know..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
Smart phones does not use thermal paste

, you told him you think it's over heating because the thermal compound has dried up

Again please research carefully before posting
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1_enthusiast:
exactly its

think

meaning not 100% positive
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
no need to argue guys i'm just trying to find a solution this is driving me nuts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
Mine does the same thing. Right now it gets pretty warm. It even gets warm when its idle in my pants or jacket pocket. I do not quite understand that as it should be doing much. I have juice defender killing my data connection most of the time.

Willg0r, if flashing a new kernel works out for you, let me know.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
i have no clue what you mean by flashing a new kernel but yeah mine gets warm even when on idle in my pants but i dont think its juice defender i use to use that but it didnt help me at all so i stopped using that program after the first week i got my phone and i dont really have much programs running either in the background
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
ok now you're just talking non sense..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ysuleman:
flashing a new kernel worked for me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
flash the faux kernel, it fixed my phone..

how do i know this? my phone drained 100% of the battery last night and died on me, figured it was the kernel so i tried faux, runs cooler than ever now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
i have no clue what kernel is and by that do you need a rooted phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
if you have a heating up problem and you are not on a rooted phone, you should do a factory reset.. if problem persists then return phone to tmobile/exchange for a new one

if you are on a rooted phone and is using a custom rom then flash this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1372690

now exactly how hot does your phone get? if it feels warm, but not skin burning to the touch then it should be ok, so long as your phone doesnt crash
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
i haven't tried using it to the point where it gets too hot but after very little use it warms up pretty quick at the top part of the screen and the part where the camera is starting to get hot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sighx:
Sometimes I like to push the limit of the phone.

The other night I had the phone charging and OC to 1.83GHZ on Bullet's kernel AND ran Antutu benchmark and guess what?

PHONE BOOTED! .......... lol...... Not sure why, but I kept testing it that way and it would constantly reboot. Phone did get quite hot though to the point where it feels uncomfortable to hold.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
i have a feeling synergy and bullet kernel has something missing in it, they seem to work perfectly for some people but not so well on a few as well, compared to my current faux stock oc kernel i feel like that the stock oc works a lot better than the other ones due to compatibility

---------- Post added at 05:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 AM ----------

getting warm is normal by the way, as long as it doesnt get too hot(60+degrees)

all silicon chips(micro processors) will produce heat no matter how they're manufactured nor how they're designed

10 years ago 1.3ghz processors will heat up to 70celsius and that's with a heatsink dissipating the thermal energy, nowadays our chips are made with smaller process and more efficient designs

but no matter how good the design is, as long as currents run through it, it will heat up.. maybe in 2 or 3 years we'll see 1.5ghz dual core processors that produces so little heat that you wont feel it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] btyork:
I suggest downloading "elixir" from the market and setting a 1x1 with your battery temp on the home screen.

I run my phone OC'ed to 1.62 most of the time (1.8 if I'm feeling frisky) and use this to monitor the temp of the battery (which is likely what is heating up.)

I've never seen it go over 36 degree's celsius (my Galaxy Tab used to hit 45 degrees when it was really hot, but the battery on that thing was HUGE.)

If you are getting over 36 degrees fairly consistently on a stock phone, I would return it, personally. It *WILL* eventually burn up at those temps... could take days, could take years.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
well the thing is it isnt the battery thats hot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] politiclaw:
I, too am beginning to wonder about heat. Whenever I play a game the phone tends to get pretty warm, like anywhere between 95-100 F warm. I'm seeing the same thing as the OP. By the way, this is on stock; I haven't rooted it yet. So... is this sucker defective?

I should mention, it doesn't get warm when it's idle. If left alone it's normally in the mid-70's F. But that's if it's left entirely alone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
Correct, the area surround the camera contains the processor

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

Read my explanation on why processors get hot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
i see as long as its not defective i was about to run to the store to get this **** returned for a new one
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
getting warm for anyphone would be normal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
yeah im not saying that it's not normal but the fact that it gets warm so fast is what worries me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
as long as it doesnt get too hot its fine..and when you start a computer..the processor will get to it's idle temperature in less than 2 minutes...so expect the same/similar to happen to a mobile processor
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
From what I read, if your phone is having trouble picking up the network, it is going to start heating up. I realized that whenever I was in an area of poor reception, and I was trying to access 3g or voice, the phone would start heating up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] boltd:
check your sync settings

For me phone was uploading photos to g+. This was apparently default setting, I disabled and voila, no more heating up burning my umm pocket.

Cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AznDud333:
that's probably the radio

in areas with poor reception, what your phone does is that it sends out stronger signal to stay connected to the power

doing that uses more power=more heat
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] alilkrazy550:
My phone seems to heat up no matter what kernels or roms I use I used them all one week at a time so they can settle right now im on stock ROM with new Baseband and flux kernel UV by -75 oc to 1.62
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willg0r:
the phone might possibly be defective my friends brother has the galaxy too and he doesn't have heating up problems and his battery life is long unlike mine, mine drops down 20% after one hour
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerophun:
I'm just pointing out what feels like the elephant in the room here. Excuse me if I'm out of line.

I bought a Play coming from the HTC Eris (CDMA Hero), and the Eris is an amazing phone. I still lurk on the forums (and really sad it got shuffled, but out with the old, in with the new.) The community there really extended its life far beyond what Verizon gave it (it officially died with 2.1, but right now mine is running CM7 2.3.7.) Overall it was a great community to get introduced to Android with, and I'm very appreciative of all the devs that worked hard to make the Eris experience much, much more amazing.

So, I purchased my R800x in October, and I was excited. New phone, new community; I was really pumped to see what everyone here was cooking up. But we seem to be stuck in a holding pattern of some sort. I can definitely see there are a lot of talented people very eager to dev and cook up roms, but I'm finding the same loop everywhere: "Can we unlock bootloaders yet" maybe "CM7?" no.

Now, I don't expect anyone to do anything simply because this is here. That's not the point of the question. The question is (twofold): Why is there no open source boot loader unlock for all Xperia Plays? I went through the dev forum archives and can't really find anything concrete as to why phones like the R800x don't have one. And if there is an issue (or even if there is not), how can I help? I want to get involved. I don't have much experience with unlocking bootloaders, but I have gone through the Android source, and feel I'm moderately familiar with how Android works.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwaisKhan:
Same here, i was introduced brilliantly into the community when i bought my galaxy s, the development page was packed everyday of different stuff, with the play no ones trying.... but some people are. You can unlock your boot loader but it does cost a small amount of money, check the development section. Im 14 & don't really have a paypal account so i can't unlock mine either lol. We can't really help, were just 2 people out of 7,000,000,000 :L
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
People, the fact that the Play has few devs behind it is simple: sales. The Play has been a big flop. That is the mere reason why we're left with little support in comparison to other phones. Forget locked or unlocked bootloaders, open or closed operative systems or whatever, it's not relevant: if a phone/tablet/whatever sells well, it will be tinkered with. Commercial developers want money, amateurs are glory hounds eager to be like Darky or Geohot, and some just want to help selflessly, but the motivations of the three have sales as the common point.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwaisKhan:
Well its the best thing that ever happened in mobile gaming, compared to n gage anyway lol
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dudeness83:
I came from an Eris as well, handed it down to my niece, she is still using with 2.3.7.

I got my play back in June. In early August a dev named ashergray did figure out how to unlock the bootloader. Mine was one of the first 5-10 that they did. Lucky for me, it was free. :D

I am not sure if the devs involved were contacted by verizon, i think i read that somewhere, but they stopped doing it.

Right now theres a guy doing it for like 20 bucks. Kinda sucks but whatever.

Your not missing all that much yet, right now I am running Doom Kernel with the UK generic firmware. Its better then stock verizon, but not by leaps and bounds.

I think the noted difference between this community and the Eris community, is that the Eris was one of the first driod phones and it was dirt F'n cheap! Now that verizon has this going for 50 bucks, maybe we will get an increase in our community and dev population.

Oh and in general, gamers are arrogant assholes. You will see alot of that in here too.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MinionOfEckerd:
Who would I contact about unlocking the bootloader on my R800x? I am willing to Donate to get it done. Thanks. :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AwaisKhan:
Check in the Development section :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crono141:
The way we got our early unlock was through a workaround in Sony Ericsson's standard unlock web interface. R800i gets a free bootloader unlock from Sony themselves. All you need is your IMEI number, go to their website, and type it in. It give you an unlock code and instructions on how to use it.

R800x doesn't have an IMEI, it has an MEID. The website wouldn't accept numbers with a letter in it (imei are all numbers). However, it was only the form on the website that filtered the input. Ashergrey found a way to feed the MEID directly to the unlocking program, and he was able to produce unlock codes. Sony eventually caught wind of this exploit and patched their website so now there's no free workaround to unlock.

The guy who you have to pay to unlock is allejandrissimo. You only have to pay to unlock because he has to buy credits for a sony ericsson program to do the unlocks. He is charging for the amount of the credits. This is currently the only way to do a bootloader unlock.

And honestly, this phone isn't selling well because it really isn't that great a phone. The controller is brilliant, don't get me wrong, but its a single core device with 384 meg of ram and maybe 512 of internal storage that came out at the same time as the droid x2 and similar devices, with 16 GIG of internal storage and 512 to 1GIG of ram, plus dual core to boot. And it came out at the same pricepoint. Seriously, my wife has a droid2 global, and its has 2 GIG of internal storage.

If xperia play had come out 6 months earlier, it would have been a big hit. Sony botched this one because, like most of their corporate marketing, they believe that the gamer portion of their population is stupid and will buy anything with the "playstation" name attached to it. Need I remind you of the initial PS3 marketing strategies? I almost didn't buy this phone because of the bad rep Sony had with me, related to how they treated their PS3 customers. Ultimately, my inner gamer won out.

Here's to hoping for an xperia play 2 that's got a decent screen, decent internal memory, and decent ram.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheCraig:
You have a point with the ram and Internal Storage, but Single core devices aren't really needed yet, Look at Dead space, GTA and other high graphic games, Off course it would be nice to have a Dual core but imo the xperia play could have been better if they put more into it (HDMI, Better screen...)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crono141:
I agree that in reality it isn't a big deal. But with consumer products, perception drives reality. The phone was seen as being "lesser", and thus doesn't sell well.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpzzle:
Dual core or not , it's still among the best , but remember no games or even softwares are near being made for dual core devices anyways . All made the same some optimum (HD) for certain ones i.e Xperia play among others. And so far as the HDMI it's believed it's built-in , just not user friendly with current update .
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpzzle:
But all in all, I love this post because even I said the same, the xperia is the only android todate that's a pain in the rear about everything , simple things are gigntic with it. I remember the G1 could even install recovery from it's own terminal emulator , seriously , even the G1 could do such a basic function , but you turn left or right , it's the same excuses everywhere it seems no one really knowing anything :-)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trygon:
Lolwat? You think the xplay is complicated? It's really not that bad, in comparison to some others.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
I've compiled a whole thread about the whole resources at your disposal about rooting, unlocking, flashing stuff, and so on; I've asked mods to make it a sticky thread without an answer of any kind; and now recently I've been reading more and more comments about how "nobody knows anything concrete" or "there are no threads about this stuff".

I give up. It's just pointless.

*edit* it seems that my query to the mood never went to them. I'm quite puzzled about the why.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpzzle:
I don't think , I KNOW :-) , and it's common knowledge , hence this thread , plus I'm sure you've poked around as well , so you must,know. Locked bootloaders etc to name a few.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hogwarts:
Agree with ya logseman big time

I also agree this phone is a good gamer phone.

but I also agree that the community or lack of one is really disappointing since I came from droid X community. there was so much going on there and compared to this its like comparing night to day.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpzzle:
Still , it's pathetic , because other phones even with a huge marketing profits weren't as hard nor complicated as the Zeus, I.E G1 , though it was a commercial success it still wasn't a pain to do anything , fact of the matter is , with or without development , the Zeus is still "roadblocked" compared to other androids which a newbie could easily.tweak.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
I haven't linked ease of modding and sales in any way. I'm just saying that if a phone is successful in the market, it will be modded. The big name Galaxies are ROM whores that you can Sim unlock for free and they have lots of roms, tweaks and stuff... But then the iThings are very hard to mod yet they have huge quantities of stuff for jailbroken units.

Maemo phones were really easy to mod, webOS devices were seemingly hard to break, and both have little content in comparison to the former two.

It boils down to sales: we as users gamble on the popularity of a device: Galaxies and iThings have millions and millions of users, while maemo and webOS have only thousands.
