Couldn't have said it better myself. I keep hearing that the grass is greener with other companies. Is it really? No one lets you tether or create a hotspot without paying for it anymore. All but Sprint has caps on the amount of data you can use per month. And that will soon change with them too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] TNPaparazzi:
Caps?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW9NnaB0Rfs&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[HTC Inspire 4G] Primevyl:
Not Verizon not one letter or notice and I run 50gbs average...AT&Ts network blows. They should master reliable voice calls before concentrating on tethering.
[HTC Inspire 4G] BillTheCat:
Unlimited data for a handset is a different standard than unlimited data for a PC, just as unlimited gas for a Yugo is different than unlimited gas for a Hummer. If everyone used a mobile device to tether their PC instead of paying for Cable or FIOS, then we'd ALL have to pay more for our plans. A lot more.

Is there any less greed in wanting to get something for nothing than there is in wanting to make sure that customers don't take advantage of you?
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
You sir, I tip my hat. Very well said.
[HTC Inspire 4G] BillTheCat:
My pleasure.

I'm sick to death of this current attitude where if somebody has something you don't, or is more successful than you are, that the kneejerk reaction is that it's not "fair". Stop with the Whining On Wallstreet and get a grip. Life isn't fair. Nature dispenses her gifts in disproportional amounts, and the sooner everyone gets a grip on the fact that "fair" is a code word for "communist", then we'll all see it for what it is and get down to the business of making ourselves more competitive and rising to the next level, instead of tearing down those who already are successful to a lower level to soothe feelings of jealousy. If you want to look at 'greed', follow the 'Occupy' movement.

The same applies to our business and professional lives. Seems that some people fully expect to get paid for what they do, and want to "get ahead" and live a nicer lifestyle for themselves through the expansion of their income (isn't this a form of greed?), but then turn around and expect companies or other professionals to not do the same for their stockholders or families.

In short, the word we're looking for here is 'hypocrite'.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScuzUK:
Hi I only recently ended up with the Nexus S and it's a great little phone.

I have searched for the answer to this but it's all been about HD playback.

I have a load of TV series in box sets that I've been bought for Christmas and I would like to know the best settings to use to convert them without ending up with black bars. Going on a long trip after new years :)

Below is the preset I used for my HTC desire the only thing I've changed is the width and height but I don't think that's quite correct any way.

The options I have available are:

Video

Width:

Height:

Adjustment (add black bars, stretch the video, zoom & crop, auto-adjust)

Video Codec: H.264 or MPEG4

Bitrate (Kbps)

Audio

Codec: mp3 or aac

Sample rate:

Bitrate:

Any suggestions from long term users as to what things should be set to?

What I want to do is optimally convert video for my nexus S and I'm looking for the best settings to do this.

Gonna convert a HD 5 min clip into various resolutions and I will post back with what is working best.

Edit:

I found those to be the smoothest for playback.

Hope it helps some one.

I went in to file explorer too and no option there..

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Jisonga:
I use a great little free app called quickpic which allows you to chose which folders are listed and it loads up large galleries nice and quick.

Jason.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bob dylan:
personally i find the default Gallery app pretty rubbish, it only refreshes content on a reboot for example.

i try and avoid using it as much as possible.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dgcruzing:
Yes, thats a nice little one.. I just loaded it and it has the exclude in it..

also allows you to backup to the root directry that the offending files are hanging out under..

i.e Books\nonfiction\files.. thus no need to do it individually..

it also works in well with the Picture framer I am using as a widget on one of my home screens..

where I have setup client files for previews.. now I think I just about got the perfect setup for it as a portable

casestudy showcase..so to recap on that..

ESfile explorer - to setup directory links as folders on a home screen

Picture framer to allow 4 large pictures on any one home screen - thus a quick tap takes you in to that themed directry

Quickpic - to run as the main viewer and slideshow engine..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ziffos:
Very sorry but forgot to tell you that I was using Quickpic rather than Gallery.

Quickpic is excellent.
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
So I had a bit of weirdness with this - I always just took Bluetooth connectivity as a given, but the Lumia 800 seems to be really finicky..

Attempt #1: Existing Jawbone Icon

Connection kept activating and dropping out

Figured it was just because the earpiece was older and things had moved on.

Attempt #2: Brand New BlueAnt Q2

Same issue - repeated dropping out

At this point, I google searched "Lumia 800 Bluetooth Compatibility" and found a rash of posts by people that are running into the same thing. Apparently, Nokia has narrowed the Bluetooth compatibility limiting the number of devices you can use with it. There's probably some bllsh-t reason about imposing this to improve reliability...etc.. but my guess is they want to sell more Nokia headsets because sure enough...

Attempt #3: Brand New Nokia J

Perfect function!

Anyone else run into anything? Wouldn't surprise me to hear that after all the $100 sets above I tried, a $5 cheapy probably works fine..
[Nokia Lumia 800] Thor Erik:
I ran into similar issues, also with

wired

handsfrees.

I first tried my old Bluetooth headset(Creative of some sort), sound out worked perfectly but not mic.

I then went and got a pair of wired, asked specifically for one where I would have proper earbuds and a mic that was compatible with WP7/Lumia 800, same story, sound working out but not mic, went to the store and they tried it with an adapter that reverses the order and same result.

Eventually I went to the local Nokia store and dished out about 250 USD for a set of Nokia BH-905i, and those work flawlessly, they are even wired and BT and the ANC works, so to be honest, not really regretting that purchase
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Good info, Thor.

I am finding the Nokia J is working well for the most part - with some hiccups; sometimes I have to restart the device; re-pair the J, or both.

One thing I did find is I think the magnetic tab on my generic phone holster is playing havoc with the bluetooth connection. It's never stable when I carry the phone in that.

So have ordered on eBay a non-magnetic case made for the Droid A855 which is identical in size to the Lumia. Will have to see when that comes in if there's a difference.

Right now, weather in LA's hot again, I REFUSE to carry this thing in my pants pockets, and the holster in other respects is just too damned convenient to consider throwing away until the Droid case arrives..

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy1weir@hotmail.co.uk:
hey this is off topic but, your talking about these data plans etc, ive seen a few posts on here regarding this. in my opinion they all seem a little pricey?

what exactly are you getting for 50 or 60 dollars a month?? here in the uk for 15 usd(10 gbp) i get 250 mins any network, unlimited texts any network, and unlimited data, which is hsdpa (7.2mbps) or 3g in lower signal areas

so my question is what are you getting for your money and why so expensive?

also im pay as you go, are your plans contract or pay as you go?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0verwatered:

it is loading as i type.. does it wipe everything as it installs?

and i need to do new setup?

thanx

it may be the quickest thing to start setup fresh.
