[Dell Streak 7] Nicelysedated:
Have an opportunity to pick one up for 165$ and was wondering if im gonna wanna upgrade after a few days with the thing. This will be my first tablet purchase.
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
With a custom rom/kernel, its defiently work considering keeping. I get great battery life, plenty of power, and Gorrilla Glass display
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
How is it that you get good battery life when every review I've read on the S7 lists battery life as a CON?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It doesnt have great battery life, at best it's not terrible.

Besides that it's a pretty good 7" tablet if you can get it for around $160, it's a lot more powerful then most other tabs unless you're willing to go into the ~$300 range
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
The S7 most places was for $300 but I paid $266 but missed out on the Best Buy Black Friday Door Buster Sale at $160. :mad:

I've read that v3.2 improved battery life over v2.2 but since I only used v2.2 a few hours before updating, I can't comment on that.
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
It's had multiple sales for ~$160 recently, it's normal price is $300 but it's not worth it in that range.

It's not hard at all to find one new/like new for $160-200 where it is a good deal
[Dell Streak 7] wptski:
I wouldn't really know what it's worth as this is my first tablet. I never found a price that low but maybe I wasn't looking in the right place.
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
I say 6 hours of video playback is great. if you are refering to $500+ devicesthat get 10 whatever. for what i paid foritsgreat.
[Dell Streak 7] crockashat:
I like my DS7 for everyday use

For me I really like the DS7 it fits perfectly in one hand, and I can easily put in my pocket. I also have an Asus TF101, I like it to, but it is a bit big for my daily running around. People complain about the screen resolution, personally I do not need high resolution for the majority of my daily use. For watching little video clips (like YouTube) it more than adequate. If I want to watch movies, then I will get the TF101 out.

I got my DS7 back in July, and for the price (with tax out the door =$179USD) and it's capability, I think it was a good buy. and for reference I got a 16GB TF101 for my wife back in August for $300USD which has the same processor and storage space as the DS7 but is a 10" screen(and of course a higher resolution screen) then a few weeks later I bought a 32GB TF101 for myself ($400USD) :-)
[Dell Streak 7] ExploreMN:
I'd sell mine for $175 with the custom folio case I got for it (was around $25). I'm thinking I need something a little different.
[Dell Streak 7] MantisEngine:
It really worths owning, is not a high end tablet, but is the best tablet that u will find for that price, so take the offer before it ends, or if u want to spend more money.....
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
Here's what happened, my phone froze for a few seconds so I hit the power/standby button and it didn't do anything. Waited for a few more seconds then it went back to the home screen and then turned off a split second later. I turned the phone back on and it said "Blank SD card" in the notifications bar. This so damn frustrating I've restarted a few times, mounted, taken th card out and put it back in...I'm at a loss as of what to do. Halp pleez?!?! Thank you!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pricey2009:
Try and put the sd card into something else other than the phone, if the data is still missing I would say either your phone had a virus or is perhaps faulty..
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
At work so I don't have access to a computer. Should all the content show up if the SD card is cool? How do you get rid of phone viruses? Factory reset I assume...? I hope I don't have to go through that hassle.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fokezy:
Hmm...The phone probably isn't faulty,it's probably the MicroSD card. I've had a debranded 4gig MicroSD that wiped itself while I was uploading songs to it...If it's wiped buy another one,pref. sandisk
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
I have a 32gb sandisk and it had all my emulator games with the save data. Bah I have no clue how this happened, its really pissed me off losing all that...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
Tried plugging the phone in to a computer, and I can't turn on USB connection. Also tried plugging in the SD card with a USB adapter stick and it didn't come up either. Is this memory card boned?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michealtbh:
Try a Linux distro, it'll have a better chance of recognising the card even if it's faulty, you might have to make a live cd if you don't already run a Linux distro.

Failing that you could try a program like Recuva for Windows
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
Just plugged in another SD card I have and it worked...seems like my 32g one is screwed, god dammit!!!!!! RAAAAGE!!!!! Taking this thing back...fuuuuuuuu
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
I was copying some mp3`s to my phone and the phone froze and i had to pull the battery, my 16gb micro sd, was totally dead, I rang Amazon sent me out a replacement even before i returned the faulty one, now that is good service.

John.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZetanBloodline:
Are you able to mount the card? If not and the phone states it's damaged, you could try this:

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4112485&postcount=9

As it's stating it's blank, that may not help, but recovery might. It worked for my card when the phone decided to have a hissy fit and 'damaged'.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
If you just need to recover the files and the microsd actually still works, but no files show, try the free file recovery in the link below, RecoveRX, just enter anything for you email address if you dont want spam.

But remember to write protect your microsd to sdcard adaptor so you dont overwrite any files, or they will be gone for good.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
I'm getting the notification "SD card blank or has unsupported file system. What in the world does that mean? This is getting more and more complicated...ugh. And I have no clue how to write the SD card stuff. Also, some files that are gray with the android logo and an SD card logo are showing up when I open my settings and go to applications then see all. I am so damn confused haha.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
The android logo and sd card symbol showing instead of the app's icon means that the app was installed on your sd card, so those apps no longer exist (I think their data is stored in internal memory though, so probably try reinstalling them). Android has an annoying habit of auto-installing some apps to sd
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nabeel_Nabs:
Gray android sd card logo has been explained ; the unsupported file system probably means your sd cards file system messed up when your phone bugged out for a second or two ; you're going have to format it which means wiping all data of it completely ; format to fat 32 - can be done through my computer and right clicking on the memory card in windows ; if this fails download a sd card formatter... Before you do this though try recovering the files via your computer as suggested before.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fokezy:
Maybe you can recover it... What essentially happened was that your phone lost power while it was writing to the sd card. That happens with all devices, that's why every game warns not to turn off the console while saving

Sent from my Xperia Play
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erikwithafro:
Thank you guys for all the suggestions, it means a lot.

Tried recovering, but nothing is on the SD card to recover anymore...so lame. Also tried reformatting after that and it said "windows cannot complete the format". Damn, I'm taking this back and getting a new one. This is ridiculous and frustrating beyond belief...Anywayyyyyyyyy thanks a bunch for the help and tips folks, hopefully I can get a new SD card without any problems. It's been about 6 months since I bought this one, so we'll see........
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geeve:
It would be even more frustrating if they said they cannot give you a new SD card. Hah...

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_maniaC:
For almost a week now, my Marketplace app is no longer starting when i tap the icon (tapping the live tile as well as launching from the app menu fails).

The menu of my phone simply gets a 'refresh' once i tap the button and thats it (very odd).

I made a quick movie to show what i mean: Click (3 MB .mkv)

Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution to get this fixed?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkr10001:
I've had this on marketplace and other apps. I just restart my phone and it works. Would be nice for it to work anyway though
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_maniaC:
I tried powering down the phone before but that didn't really change anything.

So i decided to just pull out the battery and put it back in.

The marketplace is working again now, for me. :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] PL0X_Kleiner:
Ok so i have a friend on sprint that always sends pictures to me via text message. Only about half the time i am able to view them, and the other half of the time it says i must download the picture from the text. If i choose to download them i will click download, but the download will fail anyway and i will not be able to see those mms. I am using the stock messaging thing, and i kinda want to stick with it and not change it to a new app. Is there anything i can do to fix this? Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
Is it just this friend on Sprint?

Do you use Wifi?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PL0X_Kleiner:
It is mostly just my friend that uses sprint. And yes i use wifi, and have tried using it to download the mms. No luck :mad:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I've had lots of issues with getting mms while using wifi, even with stock rom, wifi calling active or not... that might be your issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
Yeah, that's actually what I was going to say.

Wifi and trying to download MMS? No go. But if you're failing to download even on just regular data... Hm.

I believe that's something about the CM7 messaging app, right? Cause I hear wifi downloading works on the stock g2x one. I can't actually back that up because I don't want to lose the CM7 features, haha.

Edit: Like the MMS.apk download from Weapon http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1207125

Although, it says MMS sending, so I dunno.

If you've got the time and patience and this friend wants to send a lot of MMS... I would say just flash a few different roms (2.3.3 stock, 2.3.5+ CMs, or some MIUI) and just see if anything changes. I don't know what that will tell you, but.. it's for science!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Axe-08:
The fact that my dad ordered 2 primes on the 20th (one for each of us) and it it was backordered til the 28 when it turned to... " 3 day delivery pending " it still has delivery on the 5th. Which I highly doubt will happen. I know it's not their fault but they can certainly handle this a lot better. I have sent two different emails and got very similar responses. That didn't even answer my questions. I didn't want to call them cause it hasn't bothered me that much until now. I asked then to upgrade my shipping lol. I can dream.

Hey Axe, did you get a tracking number yet? I ordered on Dec. 28th and I got a UPS tracking number for it yesterday but UPS says it's not at their facility yet. My scheduled delivery is for the 5th as well. Also feel like it's probably not gonna happen :/ cancelled my Amazon order too, maybe should have ordered from Gamestop, their ETA was Jan. 6th but who knows, they're probably not getting any either.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nerdninja:
Mine is out for delivery from Office Depot this morning. From the way my order progressed, "In Warehouse" seems to indicate that your tablet is in a box, waiting to be shipped.

I called customer service yesterday because my order said delivery on the 4th (today!) and I still didn't have a tracking number. They said they're using a third-party warehouse and that was delaying the tracking info, but assured me it would ship on time.

This morning I woke up to an email with a tracking number and it was already out for delivery. Hang in there, the numbers are slow to arrive, but your tablet may be on the way. Mine shipped from Harrisburg, PA, about an hour from me!

Now I just hope everything is okay with mine so I don't need to deal with an exchange.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] effingpace:
Just got a call from customer service, item wont be in the warehouse for another 1-2 weeks, maybe you guys will have better luck.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nerdninja:
That's really weird. I ordered on the 30th, and had a ship date of the 4th and mine did ship. How can yours be backordered if you ordered before me?

From the conversations I had with customer service, they don't seem to have a firm grasp on their supply chain. I don't think I'll be doing business with them again. I wasn't impressed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unknown_owner:
Don't buy from office depot!!

DON'T BUY FROM OFFICE DEPOT (if you can help it)!!

They offer false pretenses when offering new products to their customers. How do they do that? They offer items they don't have in stock, they offer delivery methods that they can't honor (after completing the order, they change it to 3-day), they make guarantees over chat of delivery date, then on delivery day they tell you it will not be available until the end of January. I'm sorry you should not be rewarded with a sale with practices like that.

Those who have ordered and have tracking numbers, congrads. Those who have it still saying Backordered, you might as well cancel and look for it someplace else. They don't know how to run a business, in my opinion.

Ordered: order on 12/28

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

Chat experience today:

Bob: Okay, the item is doing really well, almost all the stocks have been sold out. That's why we are unable to deliver it within the promised time

Me: Bob, I understand that none of this is your fault but that is twice that things just haven't gone right with this order: First, next day order was switched to 3 day delivery right as I completed the order and now the "guaranteed" delivery date (told twice to me) is not going to be honored. I know you are Sorry but as a consumer I'm troubled by this.

Bob: I completely understand this should not have happened to you

Me: So what timeframe am I looking at now for a delivery? 1 week, 2 weeks, a month?

Bob: (Me), we expect it by the end of this January, because we have not got exact time fram from the Manufacturer

Me: No matter how in demand an item is, it doesn't warrant false expectations from any vendor. If Office Depot saw it as some sort of game to advertise a product they didn't have, offer Next-day air delivery that they coulnd't honor, guarantee a delivery date they couldn't keep, then they shouldn't be rewarded with any consumer sales.

Bob: I certainly take this as a valuable feedback

Again, we apologize for that

Me: I can "guarantee" that it will not ever happen with me again. I want to cancel this order entirely. I will help with the feedback by posting on the forums how Office Depot does business and help others not to go through this.

Me: I have lost all confidence and Office Depot and will refrain from purchasing anything in the future.

Bob: We make sure this does not happen in the near Future
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Axe-08:
I agree mostly with your point. They way they have handled the tp201 has been terrible. Failure to keep us updated really frustrates me. However when something is backordered they probably have very little information to give you. Just think of all the distributors trying to get this thing. I have to think office depot is not that high on the food chain as well.

I work in retail as a sales associate/stock processing. We have no idea what's coming on our trucks until they give us the manifest the day before. Now I know this is a different situation because it's coming from our warehouse and not the company itself, but I have to believe it is similar.

But I do agree that office depots did bad lol

Just giving everyone who ordered from OD a update. I ordered on January 3 and I just got my shipping notice with tracking my prime will be here Jan 6. I'm sorry for those of you who have ordered before me and are still waiting. I did read a post somewhere that according to OD it has to do with how close you are to a warehouse they have stock in which doesn't make a lot of sense to me but I guess they are trying to save on shipping. This is what it looked like on site. I left tracking number out for obvious reasons.

Just to update my original post quoted above, it seems that my prime did ship and as mentioned earlier, the 3rd party shipper while may have shipped it, we dont' get notified until a day later.

my origin scan started in Doraville, GA on 1/4 and will be delivered tomorrow, 1/6, to Queens, NY.

so yes, if yours says "in warehouse", it probably shipped and you'll get an update within 24 hours and it will already be on its way.

I'm a little perplexed and annoyed with UPS. I live in Wichita, KS. My shipment started in Pheonix, AR last Friday and is scheduled to be delivered 1/6. But! Last night my package was scanned in at Wichita and then scanned out and shipped on to Kansas City!?!

I called UPS and politely asked why... they didn't know but said it was still on schedule to deliveryt tomorrow. I'm not mad, I'm just confused and a little sad that I couldn't have it today 1 day early). Has anyone else ever seen such ridiculous shipping habits or have a possible explanation?
