[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCOzone_User:
My Experience Matches Yours

I bought two 32 GB Sandisk Class 4 cards from 1SaleADay in October. One started experiencing Force Close errrors on my Nook Color after 4 or 5 months. Eventually it could not even unpack the zip files and build properly. I copied a working image from another flash onto it. It then worked until I started updating and installing apps. It seems that writing to some area of flash, not sure which partition, triggers the start of the force close. During some tests, it would run until I enabled WiFi. I think apps were accessing the WiFi and trying to write to flash.

The 2nd flash from 1SaleADay was used by a relative. I updated all app in December. The relative played Freecell and maybe a few other apps once every few weeks. As soon as I attempted to update apps here in May the Force Close issue appeared. The NC had been running fine with the December updates.

A co-worker bought the NC based on my recommendation. He bought a SanDisk 32GB Class 4 card from a reseller at Amazon. He started experience Force Close issue shortly after mine.

All three 32GB cards had great ramdom read/write 4K benchmarks like other SanDisk cards. I used CrystalDiskMark to test the cards when they were new and when the first two failed. I also ran H2testw on one or two of the first cards that experienced the Force Close errors. All tests indicate the flash is still good.

The first two NCs have been running fine now for a few months with 16 GB SanDisk Class 4 cards I bought in September from Newegg. I need to put a 16 GB in my relative's NC.

I did buy some more 32 GB SanDisk cards from Amazon (not a 3rd party reseller) for $22 a few weeks ago. I hold little hope for them to work for long in a NC. I may try one. I bought them primarily to use in other devices.

The first card to fail has been running fine in my non-rooted HTC Incredible 2 for months now. I use it for podcasts so I am reading and writing to it daily but am not running the OS from it like the NC.

Running the Fix Permission function of the ROM Manager did not eliminate the Force Close issue on my relative's NC.

I have a B70 transformer (just 20 days old). Rooted with universal rootkit.

Wanted to install Ubuntu[emmc install].

Checked sbk version using sbkcheck uitlity. It first gave sbk version 1.

So went ahead Ubuntu install. Could'nt complete beacuse of "connection failed nverror 0x8".

So again ran sbkcheck utility. Got some error cant remember.

and now i cant do anything.

Just displays Entering NvFlash recovery mode when plugged in to usb.

Tried nvflash unbbricking gives "USB device not found"

Please Help!!!

I just ran into something along these lines too, accept i was installing the ICS alpha build.

I used the NvFlash from the revolver 3.11 thread to get back to a working state at least

do you get the transformer into apx mode at all?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1pratham:
Thanks for your replies

Got nvflash unbricking tool working from windows. Don't know why it wasnt working on linux.

All fine now.

Just to make sure, since the unbricking tool worked, does it mean I have a sbkv1 device?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Yes you have sbk v1
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
I have a similiar problem. But i have an 3G model (TF101G), and its not mine its from a friend.

When i power on it only gets to the Eee pad Logo, than it stays there.

Can get into the wipe menu, where you can choose between wipe and "cold booting Linux", but cant get into asus recovery menu (Android Guy with gears).

Tried also nvflash with Windows and Linux, but everytime error "0X4".

my SN begins with "BA0K", so probably a SBKv3 device or?

But i cant be brick! there must be a way, because i can get into the Asus wipe menu and into APX-Mode. Everytime here in the forum its said that this is not really a brick, but perhaps though?

I hope not. :eek::eek:

Or have i to be wait until the SBKv3 key will released?

pls help me:(:(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
@knopper84

That's exactly my problem :( , except I have the non-3G model (TF101). I'm currently downloading munsterrr's solution:

Hope it will work :D . You should try it too.

[EDIT: Just tried munsterrr's solution. It didn't work at all. I guess I'll just wait for you guys to find a solution :(]

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
hmm i think i have tried it yesterday. Its this file ( http://www.multiupload.com/PFMWB39SK4 ) or? it gave me the same error (0X4)

For me it looks like exactly the same nvflash + bat like usual.

Or maybe is there something different there?

Which SBK you have? I think SBKv1 or?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
IDK what SBK is...

I thought there was something different there.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
i still tried the SBKcheck util on Linux-Live CD. It worked with "sudo", but i get SBKv1.

I think that is only because of the tool, because i have an 3G Model or?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
Couldn't tell you, I don't use Linux.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
So the Mac Version of the sbkcheck util works better?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
You have a B80 according to your other thread. This mean nvflash won't work.

Anyone notice that once in a while the Photon rings with some unknown ringtone with no reason.. I think it might be a notification that data was lost but I'm not sure as it doesn't happen all the time. Seems to happen randomly. But haven't really figured out what it is or why it does it.

Any ideas?

The ring sounds like a more hollow but digital phone ring sound

While this is true, there are certain apps on the Market you can download to sync android devices with itunes. It worked for my Galaxy S when I had it, it might also work with the fire.

You can also sync itunes with the Amazon Cloud drive (up to 5GB free) and have it available all the time (when you have a wifi connection or easily choose what to store locally from the cloud)

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Herk718:
This was a tough transition coming from a HTC HD2, where development was booming!!! And dell streak on the other hand is like a snail in motion ): So many times I come to the conclusion to just sell it, but its the closest thing to a tablet (screen wise) just with more mobility.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurdo_kolene:
Coming from an HD2 to the streak must be like swapping a Swiss Army Knife for a Large Kitchen knife. Anyway, if you were expecting to get ICS, you've bought the wrong device. Like crashDebug said It may come to the streak, courtesy of Steve and Fards but it may not be fully functional and stable enough for daily use.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashDebug:
well each to their own I guess but I don't think that that the dev community alone (or the lack of it) are enough to determine the fate of your phone.. gingerbread works a charm (and you can theme it pretty awesome too) and all apps are perfectly functional. I don't mean that ICS isn't awesome but maybe you can give it another 6 months to grow up a bit more mature before selling ;)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undrwater:
fards has a Galaxy Note now, and has sold his Streak. Last I heard is that Steve is working on ICS for the Streak 7, but I wouldn't hold my breath for ICS on the S5.

Streak5 has had a pretty good life, and has been through 3 official OS iterations (I believe that's correct).

Enjoy your Streak...it is a good device even without ICS.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashDebug:
4 actually! shipped with 1.6 donut, upgraded locally to 2.1 eclair by o2, upgraded globally to 2.2 froyo by dell, upgraded locally to 2.3 gingerbread by olleh... not half bad eh?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
If it wasnt for the fact that it's 2.3.3 (which is turning a year old in a couple weeks) it's not terrible at least.

If we got 2.3.4/5 as a 00/retail rom it's a pretty reasonable way to end it, there's still 20% or so devices that dont have a rom newer then 2.2.

If you only looked at the 00/retail release schedules the s5 didnt do all that poorly, and given it's age you cant realistically expect 4.0 officially.

Dell's not dead last, only nearly last.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rico ANDROID:
I agree. Even without the latest updates, S5 is still a pretty good device!:D

Wifi tethering working Blackberry Playbook

Hi,

i´ve had the same issues, beeing not able to wifi tether, with my playbook and Samsung Galaxy S2. Wifi tethering worked with every other device but not with my playbook.

Bluetooth tethering seems to be working with every BB and only some other devices.

So the problem must be in the wifi from bbpb.

Since yesterday there is 2.0.0.7111 beta for Playbook.

I installed the beta and now wifi tether works. I don`t get disconnected anymore.

hope that will work 4 you too.

Register here to be able to get 2.0.0.7111

Sorry, i`m not able to post Links =( ... just google 2.0.0.7111

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xplanowestx:
Would this possibly interfere with any of the signals with the phone and NFC?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Makula:
To me that's great news... finally!

Unfortunately there's no black one offered a.t.m.

but I guess that's just a matter of time then :D

Will definitly give it a try once available...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
not too sure about this, the cover is should be half plastic and half metal, the gs2 and note also have similar covers, but they dont have nfc, these are made in china and is mainly for the asian market, in which nfc only plays a minor part of the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EVIL JIMMY:
Wonder how hard it will be to get it into the bottom clip things, I find myself having to bend the stock one to get it in neatly!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Does anyone have a better picture of the cover in question or a similar one for the SGS2?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Samzebian:
I would so order one for my extended battery, and use one metal for extended and another metal for the standard battery. The #1 cheap thing on this phone is the back, and this would totally solve this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hakizi:
I really want someone to buy one of these and give a review for the rest of us.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_endjinn:
I'm not sure which colour you were looking at, but on the Black and Silver pages 'United Kingdom' is not listed under the exclusions and it's available in the drop down for calculating shipping rates. It's possible they have amended the exclusions since you posted as well, but good news either way :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Looks great. I'm waiting for someone to confirm that they are indeed for the i9250 as it says.

I already paid $16 for the first metal-looking cover that was released and is still mistakenly sold as a battery cover for the i9250, even though it clearly only fits the i515. Thankfully I got the money back on that one at least.

Thanks for the heads up, OP. Initially, Australia wasn't listed in the shipping menu, so I sent them a message asking, and after a couple of messages, they added it to the list of destinations they'll ship to.

Already a plus in my book.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HideYoKids:
Just picked up a black one as well. Although I'm curious which will look better because that grey color is also very nice.

Edit: I just noticed that they have a Grey color and Silver listed but both pictures seem to be of the same backing. Not sure if there is a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Makula:
Took the silver one as I think (hope) that gray is some kind of matt and the silver one is a bit more "shiny"...

well, we'll see soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] firephoenix1985:
I have asked the seller and he said gray and silver aren't the same color. I have also asked what is closer to the genuine color, and he says that he think it¡s the gray cover. Both, in item description, are marked as shiny. Regards!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kentarii:
Just ordered a red one, will post images when it arrives, which will probably take 2-3 weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Makula:
ok... i guess i took the wrong translation (not a native english speaker).

Maybe i should have chosen the words darker (grey) and brighter (silver) insted?

That both are shiny seems to be logical as they are (partially) made of metal ;)

Sorry for that misunderstanding!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tsekh501:
Was deciding between the black one and the silver one... then the dark grey one pops up. The dark grey is kind of in between the black and the silver... but that doesn't solve the problem. Now I have to pick one from 3 colors :o

Anyway, I have been using the extended battery (GSM version), and will wait a few weeks and see if they have these metal covers for the extended battery as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
I assume the grey one looks like this one for the I9100.

Did anyone who ordered one live in Hong Kong or close to Hong Kong? Would be nice to see some pictures from someone who doesn't have to wait as long for shipping. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dkotoric:
Hey guys just wanted to let you know there are some more sellers selling these now for even cheaper. Looks like $9.99 but this auction has some close up pictures front and back if you want to see it. Gray looks to be the exact same color as our nexus.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
not really interested, unless it can be modified to accommodate the extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
They charge the difference in shipping though.

Great pictures in that auction though. Looks very nice, though it seems to have a little black border because of the plastic. Could look good on the phone though. Now I'm just interested to know how much it affects NFC.

Btw. the seller must be drinking pretty horrible coffee considering what he/she calls the colour of the cover. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dkotoric:
Its free shipping on this one too, but either way can't wait to get it. I ordered a gray one from the original seller that started selling it so if I like it I may order another one in black or white. If white become available.
