[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
FYI, are you guys watching Youtube videos in HD? You need to do that in General Settings - Enable HQ

Went up to tier 2 with VZW CSR, they can't resolve the issue. Opened a trouble ticket with them. Hopefully the next update will resolve the issue, if not, its going to have to be returned.

I'm pretty disappointed with the Nexus release. Along with the display defect, Samsung could have done a better job of Quality Control.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dynamicpda:
I was at a verizon store and noticed the YouTube HD buffering. Speedtest was 25+ mbps download, but it buffered every few seconds, wtf!?

Funny thing is that I am noticing buffering at home too, on Verizon FIOS. Is there something wrong with YouTube these days?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aohus:
i think its a youtube application issue. they should probably update it. hopefully the new radio update will resolve buffering issue as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TabsAZ:
Could just be Youtube too... I get this all the time on the desktop version too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ehr1:
I too experience this buffering when in hd video mode despite speed tests usually exceeding 20 mb/sec.

Fwiw, I had this problem on the thunderbolt too, one of the main reasons I was looking forward to moving away from the first LTE phone to something more mature that would hopefully not exhibit same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheerup38:
Does anyone have this for at&t? If so were you able to use the dumbphone MediaNet data plan for it? I am able to use this with the Galaxy SII i9100 and still get H+ download speeds. Wondering if At&t has the Galaxy Nexus' IMEIs in their sweeps. Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fr4c:
It should work, since I have the option to select the $30 data/sms plan for non-smartphones. And that's with AT&T scanning my IMEI at the time of activation since I was coming over from Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheerup38:
Thanks for your input fr4c. Anyone specifically using the $10 or $15 MediaNet plan??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Euclid's Brother:
Does anyone know if our 4G touch will fit in this leather case made for the Epic 4G?

http://www.amazon.com/Horizontal-Pebbled-Leather-Pouch-Samsung/dp/B0044WJUDS/ref=pd_sxp_grid_i_0_0

The 4G touch is 0.2" taller and wider than the Epic 4G, but it's just over half as thick. I'm thinking it should fit nicely, but wanted to see if anyone knew for sure.

Epic 4G: 4.9" x 2.5" x 0.6

E4GT: 5.1" x 2.7" x 0.38

Or if anyone knows of a similar case for the E4GT, let me know.

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Euclid's Brother:
Nevermind on that case.. apparently even the Epic 4G won't fit in it.

If anyone knows of a similar case for the E4GT, please let me know.

----Edit-----------

Maybe this one? http://www.cellphoneaccents.com/p-9...msung-epic-touch-4g-sph-d710-galaxy-s-ii.html
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kn0wBuddy:
These work great with the E4GT, also they fit with a TPU-case on:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XKS4WA/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

I also suspect that it might even fit with an extended battery cover, but I haven't tried one yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I just bought this one on ebay for $6

150720124722

I REALLY REALLY hate black. and brown is not much better (but can be ok if done right)

they also have blue red pink purple and white.

I also saw white and red "simple slip" pouch cases but they look like they might cause more harm than anything else (pinching the corners)

will be sure to post review and pics once I get it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Euclid's Brother:
I ended up getting this one. I'll post a review once I get it (in a few weeks).

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005V4IWPA/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

-- Edit --

Got it in. Very tight fit with naked phone. It definately won't slide out own it's own should the top come open. At first it was very difficult to even pull out, but it loosed enough. It's still a trick to take it out without rebooting it accidently. You have to grip the top edges pretty hard to pull it out, and it's easy to hit the power button.

The clip on the back is removable, if you don't want to clip it on your belt.

I'm using it mainly to carry the phone around when it's not being used, to protect the screen. I don't like using the screen protectors. They take away from the quality of the display.

I'm not worried about scratching the screen while using it. Just don't want to carry it in my pocket or with other things in my hands that might inadvertantly scratch it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] longkeeler:
Hi all, new kid on the blog here, if this is off topic and misplaced, please be gentle and knock it where it belongs.

So, here is my problem:

I got my first HD2 last week only, my first android system, "energy" runnymede 2.3.5, dec 14th, 2011

Among many other apps, SambaServer found its way onto it, SuperUser latest version previously installed.

Whenever I start Samba, it complains that the password is not set yet, and asks me to hit settings - ... in the menu. Nothing simpler than that, except - there is no menu on my Samba screen. I see the four buttons in the sample screenshots, but on my HD2, there is nothing but an elegant plain black plane. Just the Samba logo in the top third, and the remark that the passowrd is undefined.

I uninstalled Samba already completely, previously clearing all it's stored data (that worked, surprisingly), installed it again, same status. snafu?

Any advice is welcome. And please remember - here is an android noob, although my button pressing history track goes back even to an electron tube-CPU computer in the sixties... but that's a different story.

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
... Windows hardware button on the bottom in the middle of the HD2 right? As in the universal Android menu button? With the four buttons in the screenshot being home, menu, back and search (capacitive touch lit up buttons)?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] longkeeler:
Solved :)

You made my day. Thanks, thanks, thanks! :)

Wow - now I see what I've been missing two days long. Neat.

Have a nice holiday season!

I had used the backspace button only ("press back" or something similar...) Never thought that a windows button would be of any use... Oh well.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pakure:
Now that you know what the buttons on your phone can do,.. it is time for you to try" button savior" from market to save your hard keys.. else, try zmooth... you will love it... welcome to HD2.. the king

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonu1178490:
Hey everyone,

Just got my galaxy nexus a couple days ago and I love it! Switched from the Droid charge so its like night and day.

Now the issue that I have is my area does not have LTE support from Verizon and 3G has never been fast enough for me to stream from google music. It gets choppy and stops to buffer very often (which also happened with my charge).

Because of this, I orefer to have all my music stored on my phone. I used to use TuneSync on my charge and wireleslly sync to my computer but figured I would ask if anyone else uses an app that might work out better. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shanky0506:
Use Google Music. Sure, it takes time to upload your collection to the cloud, but you can download it onto your device and not use third-party apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonu1178490:
Well also with google music you don't get the smart playlists in iTunes. Unless there's a workaround that I don't know about.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Google music has their own version of "smart" playlists called instant mixes.

Info here: http://support.google.com/androidmarket/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1250215&topic=1250210&ctx=topic
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonu1178490:
I've already looked into that. it's still not what I want to do :(.

For example: I have a few "My Top Rated" playlists based on Genre.

When I used TuneSync it would just sync the playlists as they are on my computer to my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lumenii:
Google Music will sync your playlists, as they are on your computer, to your phone. I've seen sync times of less than a minute once the playlists are changed in iTunes. Personally, I can't vouch for Smart Playlists, but I assume they would update in a similar fashion. I do believe Smart Playlists are contained in the same database file that iTunes stores the rest of your library/playlist information in.

After uploading your library the first time, I see newly added songs uploaded within 1-5 minutes of adding them, as long as it has a data connection. I do allow syncing over LTE, so if songs are added to playlists that are set to be "available offline," they get cached to the phone very shortly after adding them to the playlist in iTunes.

Edited for a couple corrections.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonu1178490:
Thanks for your reply, however it didn't really help :(. The assumption you make about smart playlists updating in a similar fashion is unfortunately incorrect, and that is where my problem lies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] denonlake:
look into subsonic. I use it. It runs on your computer and lets u access ur music on your computer from anywhere.

The nice thing is that whatever you play it download to your internal storage for offline play. It also doesn't buffer because it doesn't have to stream. Pm me if u would like more details
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aznxk3vi17:
I use iSyncR, but I have no idea if it works on the Nexus. I used it previously on my Charge and it worked flawlessly, smart playlists and all. It isn't free, however, but I can vouch for its functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonu1178490:
I'm giving this a shot. I installed it and it seems pretty cool. Got the whole wifi gig setup with it. One thing i really like is that it automatically syncs pictures I take to my pictures folder on my computer. So far its working well.

one thing that worries me is that judging by how it sync's, i feel like i may have doubles in my library due to the syncing of my Library AND my playlists. I hope this isnt what happens but we'll see. I have about 2000 songs in my library, and its telling me its syncing 3000 after adding my playlists. again, hopefully its not doubling the songs :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elevation_2:
I use double twist to sync my playlists. You would need the Air sync app to make it work on the galaxy nexus. Works like a charm.

OTA solution is Dropbox + Dropsync .

Store all your music in dropbox and use the dropsync app to sync specific folders on your android. Whatever you update on dropbox it automatically syncs to your device. You can same way also have your device sync to dropbox incase you download some track on your device, it'll be uploaded to your dropbox i.e all pc-mac having drop box. FOund this an extremely useful app.
[Nexus One General] S_Dot:
Hey guys, my LCD broke, It was a AMOLED not SLCD, I bought this piece off ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/260900702599?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I put everything back for the second time now, first of all the device doesn't come on, but when I plug the AC power it shows charging light.

I'm pretty sure my old screen is AMOLED..

I made sure all the connectors where tight on the board. any help?

It wont power on, did I break something?

I'm pretty screwed guys, been at it for like 5 hours I'm done for tonight

Here is what I've conluded. I detached the digitizer from the lcd I made a mistake and removed the factory "tape"

Is and in the process the little power button came off.

So what are my chances now?

Can the digitizer be taped back to the lcd? or Do I need to get a new digitizer which includes an LCD? so as to preserve the factory tape?

As far as the power button goes, I'm not talking about the plastic bit, I'm talking about the actual button underneath. It seemed to be holding on my a little thread anything. Is that "thread" a connector or the button functions fine without it?

I put iit back and sealed the phone up, it seems to be pressing. But of course the phone wont still come on :/
[Nexus One General] evilkorn:
Have you tried the "jump start" method for people with broken power buttons? ie, plug the phone into the wall with the battery out and insert the battery. It might take a few insertions for it to work.
[Nexus One General] S_Dot:
How many seconds? It didn't work :/, the charging light just comes back on.
[Nexus One General] camalus:
Might have to give it a few tries. Like up to 10.
[Nexus One General] fender2k1:
this happened to me last weekend when i replaced my trackball. my power button gave out.
[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
That cable is a major issue with our N1s. You can order a replacement on ebay (or other sites) for usually around $40. It is called the flex cable.

The jumpstart method should work assuming nothing else is screwed up. But it isn't an exact science. Usually if you have your charging cable plugged in, you pull out the battery and put it back in, the phone will vibrate after a few seconds and start booting. If it doesn't, pull the battery out and try again.

Hello,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
No (at least not yet). Probably the closest thing (related to that) would be this: http://www.appinventorbeta.com/about/ (still requires a computer).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ell3:
I turn your question in another question, since I don't use any dev framework...

Can you compile your projects with a command-line tool ?

If you can get into that, you could keep your pc on and connect remotely with your phone (with something like netcat or ssh), and thru the shell compile your source in the computer, then send back the result on the phone (maybe with the aid of a FTP server on pc). That would speed up the process, as it happens on your pc and not on your device (and the new source would be already synced with your computer). Eventually, you can consider using VNC or RDP, though they will be more bandwidth consuming than command line and unpractical for small display devices.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetinKale38:
No i asked for possiblities without using my own computer.

May there is a online service which compile the source for you or something like.

Edit: or may its possible to compile it via android terminal?

Sent from my Desire - sorry if it isnt correct english, my english isnt perfect
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetinKale38:

[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
For those of you having audio hissing issues I have a suggestion for you. I also noticed the annoying hissing lately and it really bothers me when I'm using my headphones. I tried going to settings, then sound, and adjusting the media effects and it made hissing worse. I found this really neat app that lets you choose preset audio eq defaults and its pure bad assery! No hissing and my headphones and speaker sounds are way better! I use the Latin preset and wow. I'm on the stock rom rooted and it works fine. My buddy is on photon CM7 and he said it works for him too (just like DSP). Try searching the market for equalizer (free).

So when using this to listen to music etc make sure you disable the photons stock eq settings.
[Motorola Photon 4G] wesleyyin:
I wanted to try the app, but the installation gets stuck at "installing" in Market. My photon is using the stock rom and is rooted. Reboot does not make any difference. This is the first time I had an app not installing for no reason. :mad:
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
Welcome to my world, buddy. The Photon is only great when it works, and this is only another reason why I'm getting a replacement device from Motorola. :mad:

@OP, try blowing out your headphone's port, and taking out your battery for 30 secs, sometimes that worked for me, but then it came back. If it bothers you a lot, call Motorola, and they will send you a free replacement, or send you to your nearest Sprint Customer Advantage Repair Center.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sliverr7x:
Thanks so much that worked great
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
I never had this issue, probally because the stock one was already disabled? Downloading now.

Edit: Here I go again, telling another man I love him!! I don't know if it was my stupidy (stock EQ disbled) or what, before if I was listening to music and I wanted to lower/higher the volume, I had to wake the phone up to do it. This app just cured that problem!!!! I set it for Hip-Hop and enabled Bass Booster, Nice!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Yeah I think I could get a replacement for the hissing but man I really don't want to start over lol. Also I know for a fact mine is brand new they would just give me a dumb refurb. As for now the eq app has eliminated the hissing.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
I know the feeling, took me 2 weeks last month. Thats why I got Titanium Backup for $6.00!!! Never again!
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
Did I help, or did the OP help with the hissing?

Whoever helped, please click the "Thanks" button, next to their post. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] wesleyyin:
Thanks to people above. The problem was solved after I clicked on "uninstalling" to Market. Google's Market Update messed up things.

I've seen the Zerg root for the 4G, but after reading some comments about it there's been speculation that the 1.45.1500.2 is Zerg root proof. It there a way to root the Amaze with 1.45.1500.2 software?

On another note... I'm not able to tether with my phone? i'm able to make a hot spot and all yet, I cannot connect any devices to it. The devices seem to not be able to acquire the IP address.

What's the complete process in rooting the device with the 1.45.1500.2 software? I'm going to bootload it as soon as it's fully charged.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
To unlock your bootloader:

Go to http://htcdev.com/register/ and register an account with them.

Then select "Begin Unlock bootloader"

Follow the steps. It is easy. Just back up your info because when you unlock it, it will require a hard reset.

To do install ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM), go to this link.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1316855

Follow the instructions that says "Installation from fastboot (hboot only ||Hard Method||):" (It's actually very easy and it worked on the new ROM update)

Download the ClockworkMOD 5.0.2.7 Amaze 4g and not the ClockworkMOD 5.0.2.0 Amaze 4g.

To root, you can install a prerooted Custom ROM or you can download SuperUser (SU) from here

http://www.multiupload.com/TI14RLNE8A

Just boot into CWM and flash the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip if you want to root it with your stock ROM.

To get WiFi Tethering working, you need root (duh).

Download WiFi Tether for Root Users 3.1-beta9

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta9.apk

After you install it, press the menu button. Select "Settings". Change the Device Profile to HTC Amaze / HTC Ruby. You are good to go!
