[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nmoreman:
Could you tell me what app you are using on iPad to test, I looked thru apple market and cannot find anything to test wifi strength -I hate iTunes - so that I can compare reception to prime, ll use wifi analyzer unless there is a better app.

I do not feel iPad is strong receiver, but would like to see results
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hyunsyng:
I don't mean to sort of "hijack" this thread, but it's a totally relevant question, I swear!

For those people with confirmed bad wifi. Is it that the signal fluctuates a lot (so sometimes you'll see 50mbps, but then the other half of the time, you'll only see 1mbps), or does it actually STAY at 1mbps or however slow it gets?

I'm just asking because I've seen my Prime pull 5 mbps sometimes... but then most of the time, it ranges anywhere from 20 to 50 mbps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nmoreman:
I received mine, decided to test before I loaded anything or tried to root (in case I needed to return it) which I do.

Used several different apps, best results came from Speedtest.

First, absolutely no GPS - no satellites seen, Ipad worked great, Nexus s4g saw 9

Tests ran in room directly above router, my office -

ping Download Upload

HP Laptop 38 11.87 1.43

Ipad 41 10.93 1.41

Nexus s4g 40 11.83 1.64

Prime 45 3.67 1.3

ICS loaded immediately - but had unresponsiveness on screen, and the slow download was very self evident when running same apps downloads next to the Ipad.

So its going back - I'm very disappointed, wanted my Ipad gone because I don't like Apple - but it works, doesn't do everything I want, but works flawlessly.

The Prime - I'm not going to rma, too many problems reported and I don't feel like being a $500 tester that I can't return. Its one thing to put up with issues when I hack and flash roms, that is my choice. But for this kind of expenditure,

I will not put up with something that doesn't run perfect out of the box.

Sad, Asus has always had such outstanding hardware, this is not how they operate. They need to do something across the board for early adopters, too

many that will remember this (I will) next time they purchase. Meaning a credit

toward the new 700 if we ordered early, before their announcement, and had to return. I just don't feel like ordering again, waiting, testing, and running to the store plus will be on vacation and could miss my return window and be stuck with gift card from BB

Suggestion: include keywords in your topic title

Suggestion: include keywords from your question in the topic title, rather than the entirely generic "question". This way people have some idea of what you're getting at.

May I suggest "Titanium Backup not restoring apps"?

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LORDFIRE00:
I didn't really understand that question, but I will assume ur asking how to update "super user". Go to the market, open market, tap on menu, tap on my apps, scroll down until u see super user, see if it has been updated. If it hasn't, tap on it to start update process. Then when its done, close out the market, go into ur apps, go to super user, tap on it, scroll down untill u see binary, u will binary version numbuer, and right underneath that, u will see it say binary again, tap on it. At the button it way say update. Go ahead and update it. Then try ur titanium again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
So I read about other people having this problem with custom ROMs or rooted phones but I am on unrooted stock after OTA. I thought was one of the 60 or whatever apps I bought during the 10 cent promotion but I uninstalled them all and I still had the problem. It's not frequent but it's happened 3 times in the last couple of weeks. It's mildly annoying to have to pull the battery but the part that I can't live with is that whenever it this happens, my battery drains like crazy. The battery usage drops off a cliff and I caught this one after no more than 5 minutes. Any thoughts on this? I don't have an SD card so it's not that. Thanks!

Happened to me on stock once, installed some game but didn't play it so I don't think that was the reason. It was either the default browser or the contact list.

I have always heard leaving your wifi on when it's availible was supposed to save battery but I checked in better battery stats and saw there was almost 7000 wakelocks in a 5 hour period. I turned wifi off problem solved I only turn it on when I need to.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smack_exTreme:
i'm at a turning point. i hate my iphone and am going to sell asap!!! to be honest i hated it from the first day i got it... i don't care about android that much either, althogh i don't hate like the iphone.

for aprox the same price i could get the hd2 or lg optimus 7 (both used). hd2 looks like an obvious choice based just on the screen size, but i'm worried it will never get absolutely fully working port (btw two thumbs up for developers and their hard work) with no bugs and problems, other than the standard ones microsoft ships to all phones of course:)

any thoughts on this?

p.s.

so you don't think i'm an apple hater, i basically hate all phone makers, motorola and htc excluded:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TKETZ196:
Hey there! Honestly, i think if you really want the Windows Phone 7 total experience, without any of the bugs like lack of working compass, buggy(?) bluetooth, spotty multitouch, then i would suggest to go with a Windows Phone 7.x native device such as the Optimus 7. better yet get a second generation device if you can either afford it via new contract with a wireless carrier or happen to find one on ebay or something. Plus you would need to do some hacking with the HD2 to get any custom ROM loaded on the device. If you choose HD2 then you must contact Microsoft and get an activation code from them. recommend you use the online chat rather than calling them.

I chose the HD2 (Telstra version for the AT&T-compatible 3G band) because of its flexibility between choice of OS'es and the customizable features both Windows Mobile 6.5 and Android offer. I happen to be running Windows Phone 7.5 on my HD2 and it runs smooth (as smooth as a 1st generation device). Digital Compass doesn't work yet and bluetooth was buggy, and you could always get the latest updates that MSFT releases into the wild, even before it hits official phones via Zune update through cab updates as the community is always on top of this and generously releasing to us.

Either way, XDA dev forums can help you jailbreak your device if you choose to go with Windows Phone 7 native device (unlock your device's OS so you can run unauthorized apps, etc). HTC and LG both make great devices and do not snub Samsung either as the Focus is also a great device. HD2 is the legendary device in its reputation is the world's most hacked up device.

My device cost under $200. I could have gotten lucky (with price) since it is rarer to find that specific model here in the USA and sellers jack up the price since more people are on AT&T and this specific device works on AT&T 3G frequency (T-Mobile's version does not as T-Mobile's 3G network runs on a different band, or frequency than AT&T). Plus i really do not care for any device AT&T has to offer; also considering how much my phone bill is, i will be damned if i give them anymore money for their device with their logo on them lol.

Pay attention to which devices are compatible with the 3G (or 4G) bands in your area or network. For example, if you are on AT&T and you end up buying unbranded HD2 or LG Optimus 7, chances are when you pop you SIM chip in you will only be picking up EDGE data. Also, i read that the Optimus 7 tends to run very hot especially leaving certain apps open on the device.

What is your price point you are setting yourself, and also what wireless carrier do you use or looking to be a part of?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smack_exTreme:
the compass and bluetooth don't bug me so much (never figured out whats the point of compass in a smartphone, it must be just me), but the sketchy multitouch support even with the newest drivers. ffs, just noticed there's no opera for wp7, this could be a deal braker...

i'm in europe, on dirt cheap prepaid (80 min talk time ~$5:, sms and data is also cheap). i will go on contract about 15 minutes after hell freezes over.

i buy my phones used, and then brake their spirit:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jackrabbit72380:
Hi i have bought a hd2 because I wanted wp7 device and I bought mine for only 160$ usd used and am very happy with is everythang works fine for me

and I have been working hard to make customazation on the device even more enjoyable

the hd2 is curently the only device that can run a custom wp7 rom atm

and because of that not only has roms been relsed fully unocked but also!

the bttf rom (back to teh future) is pritty much in a leag of its owen alowing us to receve updates from ms wich happen to be very random but also custom updates to...

for that feture alone the hd2 in my eyes is the best wp7 device thare is!

4.3 in screen is not 4.7 but its still a good size not to big not to small

it only has a 5.mp cam but still the picture are good

alot of teh bugs have alredy been worked out

I will say that the only real issue that remains is battery life and that is because wp7 relys hevy on useing the sd card and teh comm port that asess it

unlike the os it was made to run winmo6.5 wich turned off the comm port and bt ports and other ports to conserve battery drainage

but alot of that issue can be fixed with a good high class sd card to.

Im curently useing a class 4 sandisk 16 gb that came with teh device and getting 1 day 14 hr's of battery life but I have a frend who gets 2 days 4 hr's with his kingston 16 gb class 4 card both 16 gb and class 4 but hige diffrend in quality I gess anyway you could easy get a class 6,8 or 10 card.

My gess is that things will only get better and hare pritty darn good now!

you can alwase run android if you like to or even dule boot the most up to date android & wp7 roms from devs hear on xda so I would say go for it i did and i dont have any Regrets!

I would have loved to buy one new! but for my 160$ I can def say that its the best 160$ I ever spent! on a off contract phone low monthy payments and a nice prepayed plan with tmoble was what i wanted and low monthy payments was teh most inportent thang for me personaly but i also wanted a nice phone to boot and i got what i wanted + if i ever have the need to switch caryers i can simple buy an unlock code for around 9$ usd compared to a htc titen or nokia lumia 500$ & 700$...

Thares about 1000 reasons to get an hd2!

Even if its to sell!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smack_exTreme:
I must say u make an interesting point. from your personal experience can you please say how bad is the touch screen issue? Are there any lag free android gingerbread roms for hd2 with everything fully working like on winmo (lag free like windows phone 7 lag free)? - I realize this is the wrong subforum.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] anon1811:
I think multitouch works pretty well on WP7 since AnDim released his new beta driver (included in the latest roms). Still not perfect, but quite usable and much better than before.

About Android: I didn't try Android NAND Roms yet, but HyperDroid and the old NexusHD2 Gingerbread are said to run perfectly bugfree and like native Android devices.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] anseio:
I got a TMOUS HD2 in October for $85 w/o SD card because I really wanted to try WP7, but I didn't want to lose my legacy data plan by getting an AT&T device. I liked it so much that I sold my TMOUS version and used the profit to buy a Telstra version. AT&T 3G works perfectly. Get HSPA, not HSPA+, but that's ok. WP7 works very well on it. It helps that I'm using a PNY 16GB c4 SD card. It's greatly improved my battery life, and the BTTF sp1 update negated the need for the camera "trick".

Anyway, my new Lumia 800 should be arriving tomorrow and I'm seriously considering parting ways with my HD2. When I know for sure, I'll post in marketplace. I'll take offers now, if any of you are interested.

Have fun!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smack_exTreme:
that's what i'm afraid of. xboxmod got an lumia also, if i'm not sadly mistaken. if anyone deserves it, he is definitely among those persons. however i think he will stop improving hd2 port. hopefully i am wrong about this, just like i've said i will stop drinking two days ago, cheers:)

And, of course, after I pushed the button to order, I see the article that MSFT stores will have the US variant starting next month. May be too expensive. I wonder if employees get a discount... I have a few connections.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alaa__99:
Good Day Experts,

Im Still New in Android development, i'm using nexus S since 3 months as ordinary user (never think to install anything outside the market) but now i decided to break the ice and start with manually updating to ICS,my questions are:

- how can i backup all my data before the update and restore them after that

- if i update it manually, could i return back to GB (2.3.6) or i should install it manually?

- can i still receive further OTA updates if i do this update manually?

Thanks for your advices experts
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobdowl:
Hey,

im new to all this too but coming from PSP/iOS Firmware and modifying it helped me getting quite quick into android "customizing".

I got my Nexus S just 3 Weeks ago (my first own smartphone ever) and after waiting for OTA ICS Update and having had the fear to have the "battery drainage bug" with ICS I did not update at first,too.

But it all went better than expected (just to make you feel safer)

1. Best way to backup ALL data is Titanium Backup which requires rooting your phone. But all Contacts and Apps (except settings saved for those) sync automatically and will re-download after a firmware reset.

2.You could return back to Gingerbread but I think downgrading always requires you to flash the device manually (as its not really meant to be downgraded).

3.Yes absolutely, you can still check for updates and will recieve OTA updates like anyone else.

Hope most I just said is true and it helped you a bit.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alaa__99:
thank u very much, for me i think the last one is the most important, if confirmed i will at least be in the safe side :)

thnx again
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahanddeem:
Hi

Welcome to the great world of Android ....

1.I don't like backups lol ... So I am not sure of how to do it...

2.Yes you can install ICS manually .. It is explained here in these forums 100 times before .. But basically

1.copy the ICS zip file into the root of your SD card (carefully download the apropriate file for I9020T or I9023 , the 128mb or 160mb)

2.then power down your phone

3.and then enter recovery with power button and up volume ...

4.Choose recovery then choose apply update from SD card

5.Choose the zip file you copied previously to the SD card

6.hit power button to start flashing

7.I would recomend reset factory defaults and erase SD card before everything and after everything is done

Reverting back to GB is a little more difficult as you have to unlock the bootloader and run the custome recovery before "flashing"

Have fun ! and oh....be careful or you might brick your phone ! do it at your own risk !
