I've always been with Telus (AT&T bands) but I m looking to get a smart phone for someone on Mobilicity (T-mobile bands) as far I know as long as the phone is unlocked calls and messaging will work fine its just the 3G/4G that will be disabled due to a lack of correct frequencies.

The person I m getting this for doesn't use data or plan to so I was just going to get them a NAM phone but I popped their sim card into my phone (which is unlocked) and I get no signal even after putting in the correct APN settings. Is there something I m missing? :confused:

Thanks

I keep trying to run my program, but it always says "your project contains error(s), please fix them before running your application" even though it was working fine yesterday without changing anything. It doesn't show any errors, and I've already tried "cleaning" the project. Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmesisca:
Lint

most likely is Lint.

you can run Lint from the Window menu, and check if warnings/errors are reported there. you can then change Lint settings from the Properties in the Project menu, using Android Lint Preferences.

hope it helps,

Try: cleaning project, closing/reopening project, closing/reopening Eclipse.

Some "invisible" errors can only bee seen on "Problems" tab. To open it, click small icon in the left bottom corner of Eclipse window, choose "Problems".

i just wanted to get some opinions, i read all the post in XDA about Ram manager and it seems to me that ram manager pro is a great app, what i want to know is

whats the difference from Autokiller memory optimizer vs Ram manager pro?

Does Ram manager pro and Autokiller memory optimizer really helps or makes more damage to the phone?

if they both are good which one would you recommend more and why?

Thank you
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
depending on your ROM I would suggest neither, most ROMs for the evo3D include tweaks to the minfree settings for memory, cache pressure, writeback, nice load, up threshhold, etc.

Hi all!

I want to know how can I solve this issue

Well... the problem is that I can't see my app for update for exemple...

Problem persist after a full wipe and after changing ROM (CM7, MiUi, Stock) on my O2X and on my Atrix...

Thank you in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenks:
i had same problem but i solved it. if you have titanium back up. first, use market tools ''destroy all market links''. this will reset your market. then use ''market doctor'' and select any program you like to add to market account. . after that you can see installed apps on your market apps list.

I was wondering if there was an app, like the pc program apkedit. Im asking because I don't have a computer anymore and really need to use it
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gb_ballz:
So I took the prime of its box, plugged it into the wall and tried turning it on. When I did, the Android battery indicator screen showed up. The battery was in the red, about a quarter the way up. I've since called Asus about the issue, and they told me to charge it for about an hour. I've done that, and still it doesn't work. It still boots into the same screen. It won't even go into recovery if I hold volume- and power for 10 seconds, just back to the battery screen. I feel like maybe I'M doing something wrong here. Any ideas, guys?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] monkeyboywa:
it's gotta charge. mine did that too and i was freaking out. apparently not all tablets are charged. It took about 10 minutes to finally get it to boot up.

If you charge it and it still doesnt...then it might be time to ..worry :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gb_ballz:
I'm only worried because it's been charging for an hour and still just goes to the battery screen, shutting off immediately after. I'll let it charge for a few hours and if it still doesn't work I'll just have to call Asus.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Arun01:
Whoa sorry to hear this.When i plugged mine in it started booting up & went to the home screen.It had 21% battery left on it.So i shut it down & letting it charge the full 8 hours that's recommended before even using the device.I hope yours works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
Make sure the charging light is on
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gb_ballz:
where's the charging light?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
its built into the power on button. a tiny little orange led
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gb_ballz:
It's not coming on. When I plug the tablet in, it recognizes that it's plugged in and vibrates, tries to turn onamd fails.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
Make sure it is plugged in all the way in the tablet.. and then wait a bit. you must use the wall charger.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gb_ballz:
It has been plugged all the way into the tablet with the wall charger :-/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Dang! Sorry to hear this. if it doesn't come on within the hour id say just exchange it. it might bea faculty unit. it should have enough juice to boot up by now considering if you charging it properly. Good luck. wish it was working for you because this is a great device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gonzale20:
I am having the same problem too when I first plugged it in the battery indicator screen came on real fast and turned off the orange charging light came on and turned off.I tried plugging into the computer it does nothing diffrent.I think it might bricked.:mad:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _jws:
okay. i just got my primetoday, same deal. it doesn't start, tried to reset, etc. i finally charged it for a while, after a while, it finally boots. at that point it was at the 15% battery life mark.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
seems a bit odd.... i would wait and see.. if its game stop they would of had games installed on it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NORCALkID:
I just got mine today...woot!!! But the issue that u have happened to me also what it happened was a faulty charger
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gonzale20:
I tested the charger on my phone and it worked. I plugged into the tablet and pressed the power button the led came on and blinked and turned off quickly.I think the battery needs a good charge.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tbns:
I had to charge mine until the battery indicator was green before it would turn on. Said in the manual to fully charge before using for the first time... so maybe it doesn't let you start up until charged?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gonzale20:
Well after 3 hours of charging it finaly started up but the battery level was low 3% showing that tells me the battery had no charge in it.Well I am happy that it is working and hopefully no other problems show up.:D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
Good to hear :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aimfire72:
Same exact thing happened to me, lol. Mine arrived with zero charge and I just let it sit for about an hour plugged in and all was well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
Hmmt hat's odd that after 3 hours it was only at 3%. Either the battery was REALLY dead, which bad for Lithium-ion batteries, or you may have had a bum charger/poor contact.

Is it charging at a normal rate now?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gonzale20:
I see two other things that seem wrong the power led is not lit when the system is on or charging and the tablet does not charge when it is on and plugged in. It looks like it is running on the battery only because the power level drops instad of charging.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
I think insurance is a good idea for my new phone. I have looked at SquareTrade and Ensquared. I am going this route b/c I am with TMobile and have an unlocked phone. (I am on a grandfathered TZones plan...)

Do you all have any experience with either of these companies? I have a 35% off code for S.T., but they do not cover theft?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
Anyone? I can't be the only one interested in purchasing insurance, am I ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
I'm in the same boat as you. GSM GNex on T-Mobile. It would be pretty awesome to have the peace of mind of replacement insurance in case I break or lose mine.

Anyone else have any other recommendations? In the mean time, I have to renew my renter's insurance. I'll see if they have any way for me to specify the phone under the policy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
Looking at http://www.ensquared.com/ this site. I would love to hear about people's opinions on this. Experiences...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
I think the most popular one that I've heard about is Squaretrade.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
yes, it is more popular, but doesn't Ensquared offer the same coverage, if not better??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
The deductible is more expensive I think for ensquared.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK0080:
I added the Tmobile insurance when I bought my Vibrant last year. It is provided by Assurion, so I called and asked them if my GNex is covered and they said it was. But....and here's the kicker.....they told me I could only replace it with a Tmobile provided "then current" phone. Yeah right! Like I'm going to accept a Samsung Hercules as a Nexus equivalent, and that is after I pay the deductible? No thanks. I'll save my $8/mo. I was expecting this response from them anyway, so I wasn't surprised. I did ask if I could simply pay the deductible, they cover the rest of the cost of my GNex purchase price, send me a check, and I'll replace the phone myself and send them the old one. I liked the idea at least. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RickROM:
I have SquareTrade for my Nexus S and iPad2. Will probably use it again for the Galaxy Nexus. They also give a lot of discounts if you look out for them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brian85:
Just FYI, I contacted squaretrade and they DO NOT cover the galaxy nexus GSM version, since it isn't officially a USA phone.

I went with ensquared.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
Looks like I will be going with ensquared as well.

And FYI Assurion is a complete joke and waste of money. When the Nexus One was released I switched to T Mobile to get it. After about two months I dropped it without a case and shattered the screen. I called Assurion and they refused to replace my phone with a Nexus One. They said a MyTouch 3G was the best they could do for me. I spoke with 3 people there and they all told me the same thing. I finally resorted to calling HTC and filed a claim with them directly. They over-nighted me a replacement Nexus One and I sent my broken one to them. I had to pay $120 for the replacement but I was OK with that.

Needless to say I immediately cancelled my Assurion coverage and will never use them again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
I bit the bullet. I bought it today. I will post any experiences I have in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
You bought ensquared insurance without any problems? I suppose I will have to as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i<3myphone:
No problems that I am aware of. It was an easy process online. Paid thru PayPal. They sent confirmation, invoice, etc...I feel better now when I leave the house. I am paranoid that my phone is going to be stolen. :eek:

When I open the gallery I can see all the subfolders, I would like to just see the main folder at first. I also tried Quickpic, that isn't displaying properly either.

[LG Optimus 2x] adslee:
Hey folks, I'm hopping over to a new provider and they're offering me a smartphone, free of charge, and the list boils down to the LG O2X or the Nexus S (the two phones are priced the same according to this provider). I currently have a Galaxy S but it's not compatible with the new provider's bands.

On paper, the LG O2X seems to be the sound winner, but we all know that here at XDA hardware specs aren't everything.

I'd like to ask how the custom firmware selection is like with the LG O2X? Is it as easy to flash as the SGS and the Nexus S? How's the stock LG firmware? What are the ups and downs of the LG O2X?

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] m0fizor:
As a O2x owner, i say: GO FOR NEXUS S!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] droweed:
honestly, as long as nvidia doesnt release its sources,

go for nexus s.

will save you alot of headache

on paper o2x wins in specs

currently its performance is much better, but on updates and future custom rom development, its tied down because of nvidia
[LG Optimus 2x] dandeli21:
Thats correct nvidia sucks. The driver lines are not gona be relased .
[LG Optimus 2x] -sandro-:
They're not? :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Mungulz:
Dude can't even spell, its just his opinion.
[LG Optimus 2x] syzwn9:
if u can wait for CM9 on O2x, better buy this phone

but if u want the latest and fastest upgrade, go for nexus
[LG Optimus 2x] adslee:
Majority here doesn't seem to be speaking too highly of the O2X, which is surprising since its specs are better than the Nexus S'... Would you guys say that the lack of support from nVidia is a deal breaker here? I'm also wondering how the 1080p video recording is like on the O2X since the Nexus S doesn't even record in 720p
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
I had a Nexus S for about a week before I got my O2X, the O2X is better, but the Nexus S has better stock software.

I wasn't interested in stock, so that made no difference to me.
[LG Optimus 2x] baghy:
go for lx o2x

now i`m using 2 phones: o2x and galaxy S

the o2x loads everything faster than the galaxy , even the original android apps (market , contacts )

both phones are running miui and as I said , o2x is better.
[LG Optimus 2x] AndreT7:
If you don't wanna flash anything but stock, go for the Nexus S.

If you are gonna flash a custom rom, O2X is just better in every field.

I actually think O2X is still the best Quality/Price on the market, if you are gonna play with custom roms.
[LG Optimus 2x] ClausG76:
Actually I'm on rooted stock gb 20m. I prefer this over the other roms I have tried. I also think the O2x is the best deal there is.
[LG Optimus 2x] MrColdbird:
As a os2x owner I can tell you without a doubt go for it.

The only advantage you get from the Nexus is ICS, which, if you face reality, really isnt enough of a reason to buy worse hardware.

Os2x is nicely supported on CM7 and works great there, the Tegra2 gpu gives you exclusive access to several titles that utilize Nvidia extensions and overall you will have nice lagfree package with it.
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
Nexus S with no doubt. Even has more memory to use.
[LG Optimus 2x] miina_tokiha:
I have both.

if you want to use stock ROM, go for Nexus S (it already have official ICS now).

if you want to use custom ROMs, go for O2X. you can learn a lot of things with it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
No. No it does not.

It has the exact same amount to use. Exactly. The Nexus S has 512MB total, with 128MB reserved for the GPU. Identical to the O2X's config.
[LG Optimus 2x] Madfysh:
I guess he ment on internal storage. 8vs.16.

P.s. One off topic question. I thought that "reserved ram for gpu" is only with tegra SoC. Do all SoC reserve from "specified" ram for gpu?

I ordered a new digitizer for my wife's phone and it didn't come with the adhesive...

Anyone know where I can buy some .. I found large rolls for $10 online but none specific. . That and I'm not sure what with I need 1mm,2mm, or 3mm..

Any help is appreciated
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Really no suggestions??
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpankyFantastic:
The school of thought here is "thin but strong".

If you go tape, 2mm, is good. You can find a 3M brand 2mm double-sided tape for about $7 on Amazon. You can also find 2mm digitizer tape specifically for MT4G for an extra $2....but why use tape when...

Silicone, super glue, and a few other things have been used with success. Me? I'd go silicone, if you can find a small tube of Liquid Nails, even better (that stuff is awesome but I've only used it in a caulk gun for heavy duty use). Loctite is a brand that comes to mind as being reliable for silicone.

There's a few ways to go, it's up to you, just be sure you get something that can withstand temps and probably some moisture. Like I said, silicone is the way to go, it's used in bathrooms, kitchens..... I've done some work in construction and if it was up to me, that'd be my choice. The tape is what it had before, and the tape is also just as effective, so please don't feel like pressured.

As long as it's a quality product then the end product should be satisfactory.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
On the subject of silicone, RTV is the best. If you can't find any clear RTV, see if you know someone who installs/services security systems. They use silicone a LOT, and usually RTV.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Aight will look into the silicone.. Its more readily available then finding the tape...

Just need a dab of silicone for it..

Now I've seen the tape used all around the digitizer. But is it needed or just around the top as I seen in another video. ?

What precausions do I need to take when using silicone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpankyFantastic:
RTV is actually really solid stuff, perfect for this type of application.

If you don't want to use it or can't find it, you need to make sure it can bond glass and it isn't conductive, waterproof and decent temperature resilience. Stuff like krazy glue isn't strong enough.

Loctite

Permatex

2 brands worth looking into.

I'm currently running the latest version of widgetlocker on my nexus s 4g and it works like a dream only problem I'm having is if I'm at my home screen & i press the home button, then immediately the sleep button, then the sleep button again immediately to unlock my phone; widget locker doesn't load and i go directly to my home screen and this message box pops up:

"widgetlocker delayed by android due to recent home button press"

anyone know what could be happening? if i press the home button, press my sleep button, wait a few seconds, then press it again to unlock it works fine...

seems like if i try to unlock my phone too soon after i press the home button i get the error..

UPDATE:

i emailed the app developer about this and i just received the response... i followed his instructions and my problem is fixed.. here is his official response:

Android does not allow a background app to come to the foreground within 5 seconds of the Home button being pressed. If you are rooted you can enable WL Settings > Advanced > Root Helper to bypass this. Otherwise just don't press home, off, on, all within 5 seconds.

-Kevin
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LudoGris:
That, I believe, is being caused by the Android 5 second rule. If you look in the setting for WidgetLocker there is a way around that, but you will be setting WL to be the homescreen and WL will call forth your launcher. There is also a root method too, if you are rooted.
