I was just checking this out. It does show no discount on our existing lines. But if I select add a new line...it does show our 23% discount
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zeusma:
Are you saying that it does not discount your existing $30/mo data plan but will discount 23% on a new line with the $30/mo data plan?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Yeah...I didn't actually complete the addition but I went through the motions and it showed the discounts in the pricing list

When I check on our existing lines it shows no discounts in the pricing list

I have rooted my phone a couple of times and the last time I did it ran really hot (as hot as 107 degrees) so I did a factory reset and after words it runs fine other than the fact that the lock screen and the home Key dont work anymore. I looked around some and its supposedly something to do with the setup guide but idk I would really appreciate some help.

Hi guys,

sorry if this is obvious but I couldnt find a suitable extra large clock in the the market. Since the Notes screen is so huge, I like a clock thats bigger than the stardard clocks suited for the Galaxy S series etc.

Anyone have any shots of theirs? Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Philip:
Have you looked at Night Clock?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lucky13th:
It seems like Polaris just corrupts any documents (unable to be read by Polaris, only by Microsoft Word 2010) it saves if the document was created by an old Microsoft Word. So whenever I download one of my professors documents, I have to save it in Microsoft 2010 or Open Office first which is a real hassle.

Just wondering if anyone has this problem and if they have an Android based solution since I don't like having to use a PC to resave the document when I have class in 5 minutes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr Zulu:
I've noticed that Polaris will put data in the wrong field on excel docs. It took me a while to figure out what was going on. When I first opened up a complex excel doc, there were several fields that had error type messages in the box. After looking through the file, and others like it, I noticed that in several places there would be data that was supposed to be in, say column B, that was in column C rather sporadically... like maybe once for every 20 correct entries in column C. It was only noticeable because data from column B was text while data that was supposed to be in column C was numbers for calculations which lead to errors in the rest of the document.

I posted another thread asking what others were using for office docs since I no longer trust polaris but didn't get a response.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Polaris Office has had corruption issues of one sort or another since the OG TF101 AFAIK. Never read the forum thread on it in too much detail.
[Droid 2 Global General] barryweston:
Does anyone have the ability to pull the myaccount.apk out of their phone and post it somewhere?

Or have a link to it?
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
Alright, this is very disconcerting, my faith in LG may be gone.

PREFACE:

I have had this phone since launch and have been on this forum since the day it was started. I have rooted, debloated, and changed launchers. I have no dislike for LG, so please do not call me a hater or a fanboy.

PROBLEM:

Starting a couple of days ago, during calls the person on the other end would only hear static and clicking. I finished the conversation through text. I called somebody else the next day and it worked fine. Today, I was talking to someone for about ten minutes then the static happened and I had to finish the conversation in text. Since the person I was talking to is a close family member I troubleshooted and kept calling them, and then a phone of one of one of my roommate's so that I could hear the problem first-hand. It sounds HORRIBLE. Since then I have used a voice recording app to test the problem.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

I have done the following to determine that this is indeed a hardware problem:

-Turned off all data

-Unlocked ALL "debloated" apps

-Restarted many times

-Put only the original battery in(I have two spare official batteries)

And the problem persists.

QUESTIONS:

-What should I expect will happen with the return/exchange process?

-My original battery has the pink water damage thing turned pink. This phone has never touched water, I think it happened because I have kept the battery in my wallet, which probably has gotten sweat on it. Will LG try to be a **** about this?

-Should I unroot and otherwise restore this phone to stock? If so, how do I do this?

-Is there anything else I should know?

-I need a phone to use, if I cut my SIM card to fit into my old iPhone 4, how will I get it back in?

Thank you, and if there is a possibility I could just return it I may. I LOVE this phone, but I have never had a microphone defect in any other phone I have ever owned. I am starting to wonder how such a large company like LG can allow something like this to happen, rightly so, I am very unsure of the longetivity and overall "completeness" of this phone.
[LG Nitro HD] gmkelly001:
The only other quick and easy thing I would suggest to narrow down the issue would be to try a wired or bluetooth headset.

It's pretty easy to find micro SIM adapters for sale online for 1 or 2 dollars.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I feel like I have some comforting responses to many of your concerns.

First of all, you should have a 1 year manufacturer's warranty against hardware defects. You should be covered.

They will most likely look for the water damage indicator on the battery, but if they are all official batteries then the store clerk won't know the difference. If it says LG on it then you're probably fine.

I saw an "unroot" option in SuperOneClick, but I cannot verify that it's functional for the Nitro. Yesterday was my first root ever. :D I would find a way to unroot it to be honest. Then do a hard reset and take it in.

As for the SIM going back to the iphone 4, it can be done. I just pulled my SIM and snapped a couple of pics to show you how to cut it and still use it. I didn't cut it myself, it was done by an ebay seller that reactivated my Unlimited Data plan and mailed me the card. He thought I had an iphone 4 so he cut it. I then told him I didn't have the iphone 4 so he set it back in and sent the whole card. It's worked in several phones since then.

I say if you love the Nitro then don't worry. AT&T should honor the manufacturer's 1 year warranty. I've never dealt with it so I don't know how they'll handle it, but they should take care of you.
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
Just a heads up, the battery is supposed to have pink + signs on it. When those bleed and the sticker is just an ugly mess of pink blotches, that's when it touched water. Not sure what yours looks like but I figured there may be a chance you are seeing the pink + signs and thinking you are screwed.
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
Thank you, what I was seeing was indeed the little pink crosses.

@gmkelly - thanks for the tip, I tried it out and my wired mic does work.

After unplugging the mic, I set it aside and when I checked again, the nitro's mic was working. I made a call and halfway through the issue started up again. Since then, I have replicated the issue multiple times using the recording app. The mic will work, and then usually stops working again after a few minutes of it being on, usually about 3.5 minutes. Thus the problem is intermittent, and I can replicate the problem for an AT&T rep.

What I really need to know is what to do about it being rooted.

EDIT: Dammit, I am having trouble replicating the problem now. Is there a chance that something in the headphone port is causing this. Ahh, I have a program to write for a C++ class and this is not a good time for this to be happening. Been recording now for 10 minutes and the mic is still working fine.

EDIT 2: Does anyone think showing a recording of the static to an AT&T rep be enough evidence? If anyone wants to hear some static you can get an earful here.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Oh btw, I recalled something an AT&T rep asked me when I was sending back the Atrix for an RMA. He didn't ask me to check the battery for water damage by looking at the pink crosses, he asked me to look for a white dot on the phone itself. The same white dot is on this phone. U can see it right above the middle screw to the right of the SD embossed sign. That white dot will change color (I forgot what color he said, maybe pink too) if the phone is water damaged.

I think nowadays the battery moisture indicator does not really apply anymore. At my job, we have tons of BB batteries that has indicators showing moisture damage but works perfectly fine. It's most likely just because the batteries get warm n moisture can build up by it.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Ok I'm sort of confused. Is this only happening with something plugged into the 3.5mm headphone jack, or are you referring to the actual built in mic on the bottom of the phone?
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
OUCH!! I forgot to turned down the speakers n i got a bad shock! :D

anywho, do u have an at&t authorized repair/warranty center by where u live/work? I say bring your phone n recording over to them n show it to them, let them hear it n explain this happens sporadically. If u want, tell them u can call their phone there n let it sit for 10 minutes or so until it happens again. But just make sure it can be recreated in their presence though. Otherwise u should just call 611 (or is it 511...411?? :confused: ) talk with them n wait till it happens over the phone lol!
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
Ha, just figured out the "multi-quote" system.

The mic in question is the Nitro's built in microphone.

Thanks, the Chicago Warranty center is a couple blocks from my work. It looks like I may be able to get "same-day, face-to-face warranty and technical support." This certainly is good news. And thanks for the info about the water damage indicator, white gold!

I guess my main concerns now are backing up and unrooting.

-I guess I will have to purchase titanium backup and go that route. Anything special I should know about backing up?

-As far as unrooting goes, I think I can recall seeing some post about it on this forum, I will have to go hunting. Are there any known successful methods?

EDIT: according to this thread, v@no says he has unrooted it. Thanks again for the help guys, I am starting to think this won't be such a PITA afterall.
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
Easiest way to unroot is to download superoneclick 2.3.3 and click the unroot button with usb debugging enabled on the phone. I have done it several times without fail.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Which method did you use to root it? I know in the SuperOneClick program there is an "Unroot" button.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
use malninion's unbricking solution to unroot your phone and restore it to factory if you are concerned about a root getting in the way of an exchange and are unable to deroot. also, all exchanges of this phone under warranty are for refurbished units, LG policy.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Refurbs are fine if they still hold the 1 year warranty. Do you know the details?
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
if you are asking me, do I know the details of what?
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Sorry, yes. Do you know the details of factory warranty on a refurbished phone?
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
The LG rep and the ATT rep I spoke with yesterday said the refurbs are better and they carry full warranty. I *thought* I heard the LG rep say our phone has a 6 month warranty, new or refurbed but it very well could be 1 year. Both reps said all refurbished phones are tested v. 10% of new phones are tested. Not sure how that makes a refurb better but that's all the details I was given re: the exchange policy.

Also, I went through the troubleshooting of mine on the phone with ATT, that agent issued a return authorization that I could have used locally by just bringing the phone in and getting a replacement. I got the impression that there would be no on-site attempt to fix my phone, just a visual inspection of the glass, case and water damage marks.

I was able to fix my phone so I didn't have to go through with it all.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Maybe it's 6 months on a new one. I think I heard 1 year, but I guess I'm not positive on that.
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
It does not matter which method you used to root your phone (doomlord or superoneclick), superoneclick can unroot the phone fine without restoring the phone via Mal's guide. I use doomlord to root and superoneclick to unroot on my phone.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Or, you can simply remove the super user icon from the app drawer and they won't even know the phone was ever rooted (unless they go into applications and search for it, which I HIGHLY doubt they will even bother). About backing up, how many apps do you have on your phone? Does it really matter if u have to reinstall them again? If it does, then get TiBu free edition n manually accept every reinstallation process.

As for contacts, sync them all to your gmail acc, n your emails should already be synced anyways. For sms/mms, get go sms pro (free) and it has the feature to backup your sms/mms to the phone which u can then back up to your computer.

Don't bother with restoring to factory settings, just hand the phone to them, removing any icons of apps that might indicate you are rooted.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
but a reflash = more fun times!
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Actually, flashing the system image from my guide would still leave you with a rooted phone because the phone it came from was rooted. That is the only thing that's not "stock" about it, though. It'd still be a good idea to do it if you've made a lot of changes to your system partition like I have. I know if I were sending mine back for a warranty claim, I'd flash everything, do a factory data reset and then unroot. Because right now I also have a non-working CWM flashed to my recovery lol.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
A couple of questions, if i may:

Have you ever had this phone in your jeans pocket?

Did you ever expose this phone to sweat etc but not directly to water?

Reason i am asking is:

jeans have surplus amounts of pocket lint, even 1 fibre of it in your mic could theoretically rub against the microphone diaphragm causing the "static" sound.

Excess moisture could thoeretically cause a micro-thin layer of corrosion on the microphone pads on the PCB, mind you the phone has 2 microphones so i feel this may not be the case, regardless if the 2nd is for noise cancellation or not, as the system uses the input from both mics to create a noise-cancellation profile for the environment you are in.
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
I do keep my phone in my jeans pocket, I find it unlikely that this is a cause. I mean, surely there is some type of grill or something there. Also, my jeans are no different than anyone else's.

It is quite cold here so I have not exposed the phone to much, if any sweat.

And yes
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
First of all, why battery is such an issue? Batteries go bad sooner or later. If anything, you didn't know that it covered in warranty when it exploded and you bought a new one. Second, I don't know about att warranty, but motorolla's require stripping down all accessories from the phone before sending, which unclude battery and back cover.

Next, why would rooting be an issue when hardware failed?
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
As it turns out, the battery is not water damaged.

Also, I believe rooting usually voids your warranty.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
Any more issues with the microphone?
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Yeah, so? If it's water damaged, then don't show it, especially if you have a new one even if it's different brand.
[LG Nitro HD] red_solo_cup:
There is no water damage, the phone never touched water. The pink I saw on the battery was actually the small crosses that show it is not water damaged.

I think I have to call AT&T and just go through the warranty process because the Warranty center does not carry a stock of Nitros. Does anyone know if it is possible to just go there anyway in order to speed the process along. I would rather just show the problem to somebody instead of going through a bunch of pointless troubleshooting. Exchanging stuff is such a pain.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
I went through the warranty process on the telephone and was authorized to either go to the local warranty center to pick up the replacement or they would mail me one from Dallas. Not sure if that helps you but I'd recommend doing it over the phone, save a trip if/since your local center does not stock them.
[Galaxy Tab General] sbeast86:
tried to update my Galaxy Tab (original i987 model) and now ive got this error screen. i know absolutely NOTHING in regards to how to re-flash/install new roms/etc. my knowledge begins and ends with 'you need the program Odin'

can someone give me a step by step to bringing my tablet back to life?
[Galaxy Tab General] phlooke:
Can you get the tab into download mode? i.e. switch off completely; then power on whilst holding the volume down button.

If you can then you can use Odin and the instructions in the Overcome ROM Install Guide to flash the tab back to stock

One other thing I forgot to put in my previous post was a link to this thread about unbricking...
[Galaxy Tab General] sbeast86:
the one-click unbrick managed to get it back to the download screen, but i think i still need to reinstall the firmware, and i cant seem to find the i987 firmware anywhere, just the p1000. nevermind the fact i dont know how to use Odin to reinstall anyway
[Galaxy Tab General] jagiho:
you just need to download odin and get a stock rom to flash and you'll get out of this problem
[Galaxy Tab General] sbeast86:
where can i find a stock rom? all the links ive found so far are down. do i need a pit file (actually...what is a pit file vs the tar file?)

sorry to ask so many n00b questions.
[Galaxy Tab General] Joe Blough:

You are not in a bad spot yet. Just don't put something one the device if it wasn't made for it.

[Xoom General] Lock-N-Load:
So, the Asus TF201 use to have ad hoc tethering under Honeycomb. Under ICS they took it away from us. So, can anyone tell me, can you tether your phone to your

Xoom via an ad hoc network as seen by Wifi Analyzer under ICS?

if so, I might be able to use the wpa_supplicant files from the Xoom ICS build to help TF201 users get ad hoc network tethering support back up and running.

Anyone? Thanks!
[Xoom General] Coop486:
No. It comes up with the same error message essentially saying that Android does not support Adhoc WiFi connections.
[Xoom General] Lock-N-Load:
damn... I was so hoping I could snag your ICS based wpa_supplicant and wpa_supplicant2 files as in ICS, there are now 2 wpa_supplicant files.. at least, there is on the Asus Prime

Can anyone on ICS who is rooted look in system/bin/ and see if you have 2 wpa_supplicant files on the Xoom?

wpa_supplicant

wpa_supplicant2

Nope. Sad.

Hi guys!

Anyone knows how to restore default Samsung Apps on this ROM? :confused:

Above all the Samsung task killer!

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhuewes:
I was frustrated trying to bring back to the ROM all what was ripped of in the SLIM ROM.

After many attempts I decided to stay on Task 10, which is a full ROM and very stable.

So, my recommendation for you is to go for Task 10 if these missing apps are important to you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh1r0:
Infact, I can find nothing anywhere! :(

So if you tried The GalaxyTask10 and it's so smooth I'll try it too and than I'll decide if stay with that ROM or return to the 13 and try to get used with that one!

However I'll keep you informed if I'd find some kind of way to restore them!

Thanks so much dude!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaseykrehbiel:
It's pretty easy to get the apps from Galaxy Task 10 back into Galaxy Task 13. Open the Galaxy Task 10 zip file and copy them into the correct directory on your tab. Set their permissions (I think rw-r--r--) and you're good to go.
