[Gen9, Gen10 General] dburckh:
Ditto with what everybody else said, but I would like to add a few pro/con's.

Pro:

I've got to repeat how great the 8" size is. It's perfect. If the frame was a little better...

I really like having the 2 USB ports. Both act as OTG (hosts). The front needs a $5 adapter, but works well. My only complaint is that the back one may require a dongle because of low clearance.

It also supports the wiimote program for games. My HTC Flyer (soon to be seen on e-bay) & Galaxy S do not.

The Archos remote program (for media) is limited, but really nice if you have an android phone.

Video decoding is better than Tegra 2. It actually played a BluRay rip (poorly).

Cons:

It seems like the USB device detection is intermittent. Sometime it will detect devices (including my external HDD), sometimes it requires multiple connections.

Viewing angles are not great.

Mine was bad out of the (open) box. Had to RMA it. Hoping the new one is better.

Usages Notes:

The main use I found for the back USB is to power some laptop USB powered speakers I picked up. In combination with the remote program, it makes a nice little portable sound system. The other "killer" app is Mame4Droid with a wiimote. I'm hoping ShadowGun will run on it.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] Galaxyace:
Well Shadow gun works , try with the Tegra version and Chainfire 3D .

Mine has also the screen shadow problem when i press it . I have the 8 G9 250 GB version . My main concern is the poor battery life in comparison to an .. Ipad which my wife has always on , the screen its not that bad for the price .

The space for media is guite enormous but the 1.5 gb of internal memory for apps seems to fill quite fast with Tegra games , but its enough for most users i guess.

Super good for media playing , Hdmi out , full usb X 2 , connection to not only wii controller but also ... Usb Xbox 360 controller , Usb pc controller , mouse , keyboard , usb sticks , usb network to cable converter ,usb fan , usb light , usb hub , the list goes on and on ..

Lastly the 8' is quite perfect dimensions and i hope the Ics 4 solves at least the battery problem . Until then i ll wait :)
[Gen9, Gen10 General] over's tab:
I agree with most pros & cons above although I have yet to take full advantage of everything

I have a 80G9 16GB turbo with OMAP4460, 1.5GHz, 512MB RAM (*was not advertised to be in that configuration) only had this for about 2 weeks, also have 80G9 8Gb classic with 4420

-no screen issue

-almost no flash issues

-good live streaming

-good Netflix

-most of the time very fast

-overall size & screen aspect ratio is also perfect for me (little smaller frame/border would be better) I have spent time on a 7 and 10 inch tablet

-loving Perfect Keyboard and getting used to benefits of Opera Browser, using Avast Mobile Security

-because of size, typing with split keyboard in landscape with thumbs is better than any other experience (full size, or laptop included)

would I buy one? No, I bought two (family member has the classic)

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

-charging time, procedure & dedicated usb cable/ charger are questionable

-freezes or reboots once in a while for no known reason or when I rush to go back or forward

-sometimes issues with keystroke delay & cursor placement

-battery life is ok, but would want more if remote productivity was a priority

-build quality is acceptable for price but inset screen creates a ledge for dust, some of the edges around perimeter could be smoother
[Gen9, Gen10 General] rokkywoof:
By "back USB" do you mean the "3G stick" socket? I tried plugging a few USB devices into it, but nothing registered, and Archos' literature does not claim it should (just "USB slave: Mobile Transfer Protocol (MTP)" from the website tech specs?).

Would be nice to use that full-size connetor, altho my BT keyboard paired up fairly easily, and works nicely.

[Gen9, Gen10 General] Harfainx:
I use mine as a host all the time. I literally leave my 64GB USB drive plugged in all the time. I have a case on my G9 101, so the 3G port is covered and I don't have to worry about losing the USB drive anywhere. I have a bunch of movies and television shows on the USB drive that I watch. The only time it ever comes out of the tablet is when I need to put other media on it.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] mahall1988:
I have used the full sized 3g USB for a number of devices. just make sure u have it turned on on the clock menu popular
[Gen9, Gen10 General] rokkywoof:
Giving it up.

Say what? I simply cannot parse "clock menu popular" - typos? missing words? There is a Settings menu item for the 3G stick, but nothing I did on that seemed to matter, although I did not try too much, or with many devices.

Thanks anyway, but with that issue, only 512MB RAM (Staples online ad Sunday stating 1GB got my hopes up that this was an upgraded model, but they have since corrected it), and not getting the MTP app to work on my main Linux PC, I gave up on it, and took it back for a refund tonight. Besides, it was just a bit too big to handle/carry easily like my Dell Streak 5 and defunct Archos 5. And I guess I am stuck on pre-Honeycomb versions of Android - that HC GUI is just too weird...

On the plus side, that bright, clear, just-big-enough 8-inch 1024x768 4:3 screen sure is nice for viewing web pages and epub magazines like Linux Journal.

YMMV,

There was an ebook reader app in the early days of the G1 in 2008 and 2009. I had a bunch of books on it and I want the app again. I think its been off the market for quite some time now (because it was a "free/sharing" app?). the icon was of some kind of squarish looking monster or something.

Does ANYBODY know what I am talking about and where I can find it?

[Kindle Fire General] babbabooey97:
I hope it helps... from jumping from thread to thread in this forum, the biggest issue i was seeing the most was getting the correct driver to install. just make sure you get that step down and it should be pretty easy... knock on wood

[Kindle Fire General] citizenatlarge:
I'm not really a noob per-say, been around a good while actually. But your point in this post about the correct driver and you bringing everything together for a very easy to follow guide really did help. Thanks!

I actually had a weird issue where I wasn't seeing a yellow triangle for the ADB driver and just couldn't get root to take. Updating it did the trick ;) (It needs to say 'Android Composite ADB Interface')

Yay! My backup just finished and I'm not stuck with a yellow sign. Success.
[Kindle Fire General] Juls317:
just got my KF today and I'll try this out tomorrow when i can get to my friends windows computer (virtualbox on my Mac doesnt like me.....)

[Kindle Fire General] babbabooey97:
FA FA FOOEY

You should be able to use the KFU to install the android market. once your plug the kindle into the pc and the driver is installed properly, run KFU v.9.1 Select option 6 (extras) then select option 2 (Google apps / go launcher) KFU should do the rest. If you want to manually downloand use this link http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo...t=Click Here&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13252517466081
[Kindle Fire General] Juls317:
for some reason my Mac wont recognize my KF and my VirtualBox Windows won't either so i have to wait for a bit....
[Kindle Fire General] Juls317:
EDIT: nevermind

next issue, whenever i go into the Devices and Printers menu and then to the Kindle and into Properties, it only lists USB Composite Device. Could this be because i am trying to do this on an Windows 7 VirtualBox setup and not through a true W7 computer?
[Kindle Fire General] Juls317:
just got this baby rooted and installed TWRP and GApps and i LOVE IT! thanks for the super easy guide!
[Kindle Fire General] babbabooey97:
Glad it helped. Jayceooi did an awesome job. Like i said before, if you get the driver installed correctly the rest is a piece of cake
[Kindle Fire General] Juls317:
the driver was annoying cuz i tried to do it through a VirtualBox virtual machine but when i would plug it into my MacbookPro, i would have to unmount it from there and then it wouldnt recognize it properly in the Windows VM so i had to wait to get to a friends computer but it"s all good now
[Kindle Fire General] pre4speed:
stuck at triangle

Got the triangle screen and following instructions in guides are not fixing it. Heres my scenario. I got my kindle with 6.2 on it. Got it rooted, installed market and go launcher and was great. Then the update of course came thru and broke root. Still been able to download market apps and use go launcher. So I followed this guide to regain root and install twrp. It says root is successful, but superuser force closes everytime trying to open or use it. I can open my tibu and root explorer and everything still gave me root access. Went and changed the MarketIntentProxy.apk to MarketIntentProxy.apk.bak so market links go to market by default. That worked. Noticed that all amazon apps downloaded have a default amazon icon. Thought nothing of it. Went to install twrp anyway. Stuck at triangle now. Followed all instructions to fix and the KFU keeps flashing error device not found constantly and device status unknown. What happened?

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] COast94:
tried, doesnt brick.. although after factory reset.. there is no android market. (dont remember if market was installed before reset)

plus, you can't manually add google account so even if you install market manually, you can't access it.

Has any one had any problems like these listed below.

Lower right corner of the plastic case seems to pop out when I remove my case to get to the battery. It easily snap back in though.....just seems odd.

[Motorola Droid X2] xheavymetaldadx:
Ok so the holster I've got has the magnetic flap. It automatically starts the dock modes is there a way do disable this? Preferably without uninstalling the apps.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
Might be worth a shot....if your rooted deleting carhomegoogle.apk in system/app folder might fix this. Its for the car dock. Reboot and that should do it.
[Motorola Droid X2] xheavymetaldadx:
See I did that but it still tries to activate the media dock but of course it force closes as soon as I unlock it, I'm on liberty btw.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
I am not sure but does the liberty customizer have a place to switch that out with the blur dock? If so that could be the issue. You can try downloading a "disable car home" app from the market and that would probably fix it. Might have to install the carhomegoogle.apk though.

Did you reboot after unistalling or deleting that carhomegoogle.apk? might also try wiping cache and dalvik in BSR too.

Try putting a .bak after dockservice.apk first and if that fixes anything you can always remove the .bak later if you run into an issue on removing it

Ive successfully rooted my kindle(twice), verified through root checker, but when I downloaded busybox( stericson) and double checked for root I get and error message. I did not know this was the original issue the first time. I ended up unrooting and rerooting. The second time the first thing I did after initial root check was to install busybox and this is how I know that is the issue. The main reason I need it is so I can use ad-hoc switcher to tether. I tried other versions of busybox installer but they wouldn't download. I'm looking for an alternative to unrooting and rerooting, but I will if I have to. Also, a busybox installer that works and doesn't unroot my kindle would be nice. The error is as follows:

Superuser Application status: ...installed.

I will try to download busybox differently next time but that doesn't change the fact that my device is now not showing that im not rooted and I don't know how to undo what busybox did to my settings. Do I need to unroot and reroot or is there an easier fix.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
the question is how did you root ? temporary or permanent ?

i recommend the KFU for such stuff - it makes it a lot easier

if you'r rooted permanently with superuser then everything should be ok

as you suggested i would try to unroot and root permanent with KFU

then you can decide to uninstall your busybox version or not and try an other version

I rooted permanent via kfu. Will unroot and reroot again and see if I can make it work this tome. Thanks.

[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
Just curious to know if anyone else purchased/uses the "Multimedia Dock" for the Rezound (the official one from VZW/HTC).

If so, I have an issue with the dock mode where by if I put the phone in the dock, there is no way of exiting out of the dock mode App. It's kind of a pain in the arse for me because I usually have to remove the phone from the dock for a few seconds, choose the app I want to enter, then put the phone back in the Dock and use the "recent apps" from the drop down to go back into the previous app.

On my Thunderbolt and my wife's Inc2, the Dock Mode app has a big "X" in the lower-left of the screen to exit out of the Dock app. I was mainly interested in knowing if anyone else has the same issue, or if it's just my phone that has the issue. Thanks in advance!
[HTC Rezound] rsalas187:
I have the dock and have the same issue. I mostly use the dock to stream spotify to my home receiver so it's not that big of a deal to me. It would be nice to exit of it easily though. Also the default bluetooth connection in the dock mode is hit or miss.
[HTC Rezound] Jonezilla:
You should be able to exit be pulling down the notification bar and exiting from there.
[HTC Rezound] BVKnight:
The same thing happens for me. One thing I noticed is that when I switched over to another launcher (ADW Ex), the dock mode doesn't launch automatically, which is a pain but does allow me to access other apps. So I guess pick your poison.
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
No, you can't it only shows an icon that says "press to return to dock mode."

At least I know it wasn't just my phone.

I do have another issue though. I was messing around with settings and disabled the auto start. Now, my phone won't launch Dock Mode at all and I don't see it listed in the app drawer. (It is under my Apps in the Settings but I can't do anything but uninstall). Anyone know how I can restore the Dock Mode?

I have also tried to locate the APK in Root Explorer, but it only asks if I want to install it. When I try, it fails to install.

EDIT: Nevermind, just remembered. You have to go into the Clock (via Weather/Clock widget) and then click Desk Clock, then press the Dock Mode Icon and you can change settings that way.
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
Yes, the Dock Mode appears to be a Sense related app/widget, so if you install a 3rd party launcher, it will kick you out of Dock Mode entirely.
[HTC Rezound] WorldOfJohnboy:
Wow, I just did something... I took the phone out of the Dock. Then pressed the clock portion of my Clock/Weather widget, then hit Desk Clock, then pressed the Icon that shows the Dock Mode. Notice that the Dock Mode now shows the big X in the lower left!

That is the only way I can get it to appear though... seems as though it's an HTC glitch.

Hi everyone,

I've found the information in these forums to be very helpful and have never posted on anything before, but I have a question that I'm not finding a good answer for.

I successfully unlocked my bootloader and rooted last night and am now running scrosler's CleanROM. However I want to return to stock using the RUU from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1338916

When I run the RUU I am getting stuck at the HTC recovery screen, and the windows installer tells me that the RUU is not compatible. I tried extracting the rom.zip, renamed it to PH98IMG.zip, copied it to the SDcard and load it in HBOOT, but it won't work either.

Any ideas? I mainly just want to make sure I have a working method to return to stock just in case I accidentally brick the phone at some point, but otherwise I'm good for now.
