[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Malarie:
I never used the Note, but i just wen to its website and I would prefer the Galaxy Nexus (I own one) because f many factors: The note screen is 5.3 inches big, this is not a phone. Its a small tablet nd its to bif for me. The difference seems to be more software related. Software can work on any phone, some one only have to make it.

Also, they probably sell the stylus for 50 bucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gnexus88:
I would consider the galaxy nexus over the note as well. IMO the note is too big for a comfortable size phone, and still too small to watch videos.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bethanensinger:
I would personally have gone with the note, but now have a gnex because i am on verizon and the radios dont work well together.

Gnex has been great though and I certainly dont regret it. ICS is great and I think that touchwiz is really annoying personally.

The reason I wanted a note was because the screen size since I have large hands, and because the battery life.

But Gnex actually has a better screen in my opinion, cause it has a higher pixel density 316 ppi vs. Gnote's 285.

To me it really majorly depends on what will feel most comfortable in your hands, and what carrier you are on.

Also if people say the note's processor is faster they are likely comparing it with quadrant, an app not optimized for ics
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CDuke619:
Always Nexus because of Google updates and huge dev community
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
They might have similar specs but for me they don't serve the same market. 5,3" is so much bigger than 4,65" that it's not "pocketable" anymore for many people.

Go into a store, pick up a Note and judge for yourself if this "phone" is something you want to carry around every day. For me that was all it took to pass on the Note and buy the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rickh925:
I was convinced that I was going to get the Note. I do a lot of work in documents, terminal editor, and the browser and would have loved the extra screen space. Plus, the Note has a microSD slot. Then I found out that the radio does not currently support both T-Mobile US HSPA+ bands and I would be limited to EDGE. No way...

The other concern that I had was that this is sort of a niche device and I was concerned that the ROM support would not be there like it will be for the GNex. Coming from the N1, I have to feed my crack flashing addiction.

I still have some remorse over not getting the Note, but the GNex is truly a great phone. I've been cleaning out my N1 so that the kids can use it to play games and such on wifi (sometimes tethered to my GNex) and realized how SMALL it is and how clunky the gingerbread ROM feels now.
[HTC Rezound] excellentnuke:
Anyone else here try Nova Launcher on their ICS ROM? I'm having issues with adding widgets to the homescreen. Every time I try to do so, the launcher closes.
[HTC Rezound] WasabiWa83:
Yep. Nova doesn't work when you try to add widgets. Not sure why, though it could be something to do with phone compatibility or the fact that Nova is currently optimized for Android 4.0.3. Until the devs are able to get 4.0.3 running, I think we're kind of SOL. It kind of sucks, but we'll be able to use it soon enough. :)
[HTC Rezound] con247:
same. it is a bummer
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Yeah even if you install it as a system app it still does the same thing FC on widgets. The stock 4.0.1 launcher is so laggy in comparision, but it's better than nothing. 4.0.2 - 4.0.3 seems to solve a lot of the transition issues that plagued 4.0.1.
[HTC Rezound] Sleek69:
Once we have aosp it'll probably work properly.
[HTC Rezound] lomar24:
i'm running ineffibilis and i'm having no issues. trebuchet on the other hand...
[HTC Rezound] palmcrash:
On Nova beta 13, new apps' widgets don't appear in the locker unless I restart Nova. Existing widgets show fine. However, the new widgets show up fine in the widget picker, whether from launcher screen or switched from drawer mode. No FC yet for me.
[HTC Sensation] mbangia630:
self explanatory.. on all ICS ROMS, facebook sync with contacts doesnt work correctly. is there a simple reason why? and any workarounds?
[HTC Sensation] giorgit28:
......................
[HTC Sensation] Sloopjoshb:
I have never found this to be the case on sense 3.6 roms. If you're having this problem on multiple roms try a factory reset and format all partitions except sd, reflash your rom, boot up let the phone sit without doing anything to it for 5 minutes, reboot phone, set up the phone, reboot once more.

That's what I had to do to get birthdays once from facebook to sync but never contact info.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAinguINx:
Hi guys,

I'm helping a friend root his EVO 4G. I asked for some help doing this on another friends phone a while back as it was shortly after 2.3.3 was released OTA. Well that worked well, and so I run into this issue.

This EVO, the one I'm helping my friend with now, is also running 2.3.3. There are a number of new ROMS out there now and I was looking towards maybe flashing a Sense 3.0 ROM.

But I'm unsure as to which rooting method to use. It was a bit more complex the first time as 2.3.3 was new and you could not S-OFF then. But if I can I would like to S-OFF this EVO.

Can you guys post some links to the threads where I can find the help that I need? Does UnrEVOked support 2.3.3 now???

Any help would be much appreciated...

Regards,

PAinguINx

Thanks evo4gnoob. I've never heard of that but I'll check into it. Thank you for the post!

If the phone has 2.18 hboot, then just give revolutionary.io some time to update...

Not Sent
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intrlude:
PAingulNx, that would be dependent on what Hboot the phone has, to what method of rooting you would use. As {ParanoiA} stated, you can wait for revolutionary.io to update for Hboot 2.18 (if that's what the phone is on) or try unlocking the bootloader via HTCDEV method. Which I try to explain here, not sure if I did a good job, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21680991&postcount=1.

HBOOT Version

Thanks guys...

It's been a minute since I've rooted an EVO. Can I check the HBOOT version in "Software Information" or do I need to boot in to Recovery?

In software information I have two numbers that resemble the HBOOT version.

The first is "Baseband Version" which is 2.15.00.0808. The other is the PRI Version which is 2.15_003.

Are either of these the HBOOT version?

Thanks again and sorry for the newb question...

PAinguINx
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Neither of those are the hboot. To check hboot pull battery out power button+ volume down at the same time
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAinguINx:
Ok, it's 2.16.0001. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:

Hey guys,

Revolutionary worked beautifully! My friend's EVO now has S-OFF and ROOT...

All I need to do now is determine which ROM to use. I still have Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo and I see now that 3.5 is out. So I will be flashing that soon. But for my friend's EVO I'm still not sure.

Any suggestions?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tomgillotti:
The Prime froze up while browsing. Did a power reset and it began to reboot, but got stuck at the ASUS, Inspiring Innovation Persistent Perfection screen with the loading circle at the bottom. Is there a backdoor way to do a "battery pull" off sorts like I read can be done with the Razr?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spaz007:
My battery pull was to exchange it for a new prime. My old prime did the same thing after the ICS update. Sticking with honeycomb this time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tomgillotti:
After calling ASUS, the reset button (which at first glance appears just to be another microphone) was the solution. I had to simultaneously push in the reset button, hold down the volume down and power button until the the "wipe data" icon appeares. If it's already highlighted quickly push the volume up key twice, otherwise click down on the volume rocker once to highlight it and then push the volume up key twice. You will be wiping everything, but at least you'll have your tablet back.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spaz007:
Is that the top or left side hole?

Glad if worked for you. I did a wipe data also and while it did help at first it later came back.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tomgillotti:
Left side, below the micro sd card.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Wait what? You did this wipe the system data to I gotta try this
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Rezin.au:
First question... do you have 3 arms? They don't make it easy! :D

How long did it take (should it take) for this wipe data icon to appear? I tried a few times and couldn't get it to show, but at least my Prime is now off, which is good as the damn thing didn't want to turn off (holding the power button just reset it, boot, rinse repeat).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tomgillotti:
Just two arms ;)

I can't remember how long it took, but I think it was a few seconds (maybe 15). I had an ASUS employee walk me through it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Rezin.au:
I might give them a call tomorrow if I can't get it working, cos right now it's a nice champagne coloured paperweight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tomgillotti:
No problems since then, sooooo that's good news. This happened to me months ago.

I have all my bookmarks on my laptop (on Firefox) and want to get them on my Prime. How do I get them on it when the browsers don't have an import option.

I know I can use Firefox and sync but it isn't stable as far as I'm concerned and doesn't have flash.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acsooley:
Use xMarks with dolphin HD browser on the android and xMarks FF plug in.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eraursls1984:
I saw a option to import chrome bookmarks in dolphin as well. I also had a ad block for dolphin but I deleted it because it was redundant with the system wide ad block I was using, I mention this because I saw your post on the browser lag thread.

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Which version of Firefox are you using? I was running it and it was great but every time they released an update it became slower and slower.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Why not just load up Chrome & mport your favs & let them sync with the stock browser... it works fine in ICS
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Loaded up Chrome on my laptop, imported bookmarks there but I can't see at all how to get them in the stock browser on the Prime.

...nevermind, had auto-sync off.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Whatever the latest version is.

Firefox started to get really slow for me too when they started to update it frequently so I uninstalled everything and just wiped it from my computer. After I reinstalled it was working great and has been since.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Boat Browser ftw

They have a straight forward import option. :)

If they can get some add-ons like Firefox it would be the perfect browser.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
All it lets you import is from stock browser. I need something to let me import all my bookmarksfrom opera mobile.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
I exported from Firefox on my laptop, copied the file to the bookmarks folder of Boat Browser and used the restore bookmarks option.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I wonder if I can do this exact same thing from within the prime. From opera mobile to boat browser. Where is the restore option? I only saw import.

Also where is bookmark folder for boat browser n opera mobile located at? Been searching all over root explorer for it..lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sklar:
Hi guys, I have had my phone for a few weeks now and I'd like to ask about a little problem I have been experiencing. So, I just rooted my device this morning and flashed the new ICS ROM. Though, I realised that I prefer MIUI. So, when I loaded recovery to flash my new MIUI ROM, I was greeted by a blue 'CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7'

I don't understand this because when I rooted this morning the recovery I had was a different version and it was orange.

What I need to know is the steps I need to take to flash a new ROM from scratch. Do I need to go back to the original ROM, then re-root? Do I need to re-root at all even?

I guess I'm still kind of a noob, so any help would be appreciated and I will click that 'thanks' button for anyone who gives a good answer.

Thanks in advance, Joe.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
CWM and root are not directly related.

CWM comes with the kernel.

Root is part of the rom.

Miui will be rooted when you flash it.

You do not need to be rooted to flash roms via CWM recovery.

[General Questions and Answers] hajalie24:
Does anyone know where to find out all the shortcuts you can do with an external keyboard on Android 4.0? Things like the back button, home screen, etc. Thank.
[General Questions and Answers] Pandages:
Thread Necromancy, I know, but this is a serious question that remains unanswered. Here's the most info I've found:

Rootzwiki User Gr8gorilla posted a list of shortcuts that work with his Targus Bluetooth Keyboard (I'm editing the list for formatting, and adding more as I find them.)

ESC: Back (woo!)

Targus FN + F* keys: (edit: These only work with the specific model of Targus keyboard. Your FN key may only perform functions as labelled, test it to verify)

FN+F1: Search

FN+F8: play/pause music

FN+F7: Skip Prev

FN+F9: Skip Next

FN+F11: Volume -

FN+F12: Volume +

FN+ESC: Wallpaper, manage apps, system settings.

Alt+Tab - recent apps, task switcher (WOO!)

CTRL + Alpha keys:

Ctrl+A: Market (edit: this opens the "add to home screen" menu for me)

Ctrl+P: Settings

Ctrl+W: Wallpaper

Ctrl+M: Apps

In Browser: (edit: these work in other apps too, if they apply)

Ctrl+B: Bookmarks

Ctrl+A: Select all

Ctrl+C: Copy

Ctrl+V: Paste

Ctrl+W: Close current tab

Ctrl+T: Open new tab

Command/Windows button + : (edit: these commands work from anywhere, even in other apps)

Win+E: Launch Default Email App (brings up a choice dialog if necessary)

Win+A: Launch Calculator.apk

Win+S: Launch Messaging.apk (SMS App)

Win+C: Launch Contacts

Win+B: Launch Browser.apk (not your default browser, unfortunately)

Win+P: Launch Music.apk (not your default music player, unfortunately)

Win+L: Launch Calendar

Win+M: Launch Google Maps

From my own experience: the above work, other than the Targus-specific ones. I've tested them all. I'm looking for more, especially ways to activate "HOME", "MENU" and to open/close the notification drawer.

Also, you can edit your /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl to change which key codes sent by the bluetooth keyboard activate various functions. This would be a rather involved hack, and may be specific to your hardware. Doing it wrong could compromise your ability to use your software keyboard. Also, it would be replaced whenever you flash a ROM, and possibly some smaller updates as well. Here's a guide to hacking keyboard layouts, though it's a bit old, and I haven't tested it. DO AT YOUR OWN RISK, but post your results either way!

I'm looking for a way to enable the Android SDK Emulator Shortcut Keys on real devices. It would give us that which we're missing.
[General Questions and Answers] erupe:
Ctrl+W and Ctrl+T

In the stock browser:

Ctrl+W - closes the current tab

Ctrl+T - opens a new tab

There may be more of these that are similar to chrome shortcuts but those are the only two I really use.
[General Questions and Answers] Pandages:
Tested to verify. Works in Chrome as well. Added to the list above!
[General Questions and Answers] hajalie24:
Thanks for coming up with that list. Really appreciate it.
[General Questions and Answers] Pandages:
I'd just like to clarify something: using an app called KeyEvent Display, free on Google Play, you can verify that Android is actually receiving keystrokes from your keyboard. I've tested every key on my keyboard, and found that they correspond exactly with /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl (fn key excluded, because that's handled by the keyboard itself, not passed to the OS).

I think the Android Framework doesn't know what to do with:

F-Keys

Mute

Ok so a lot of you dont know that i have teh domain www.holylivingfuck.com with unl space/bandwidth etc etc.. so i host a lof of devs stuff there to help them (instead of using nasty sites like megaupload or crap that have you wait. or like dropbox that crap out after so much downloads)

here is my current monthly report :)

No you arent misreading that ive served 1.5 TERAbytes of info/files etc etc to everyone :P (the failed requests are cuz joker changed teh url to his photon files and didnt change the links ;P so all you f5'ers out there cause that ;) )

lets get onto actual info:

you guys are most active at 9 am in the morning, as well as from 6 PM until 10 PM.. gunna guess thats cuz you guys made it home from work alright ;)

17% of you downloading files from me have comcast internet :P

8925 people clicked on jokers link in the photon cm9 thread, 4951 on the atrix forums did :cool:

the number is how many requests (again this is only for the month of january :rolleyes:

the biggest hit to finding me on google is cm9 atrix with 25 of you finding it that way

i think things may be a bit off, but according to the site the request by browser type are as follows:

94567	Safari

75448	MSIE (really???)

54113	Firefox

12325	AndroidDownloadManager

7830	Opera

i dont see chrome listed, hence why i think that things arent being detected properly... however:

34878	MSIE/7
12733	MSIE/6
14222	MSIE/9
12640	MSIE/8
931	MSIE/5
25	MSIE/10
13	MSIE/999
5	MSIE/4
1	MSIE/2

seriously? why are people still uisng IE6 as their main browser? that was the most bug riddled crapfest i could ever think of. if you are going to use the hell that is IE at least update to be more secure.... (i especially like MEIE999 :rolleyes:)

as for things that apply to yall,

# of reqs bytes %

which means cm9 alone was more than half of the reason why someone came to HLF.com, and you guys downloaded 553.090049gigabytes of files off my server looking for that ICS goodness :P

again tho.. this is only for the past 22 days :O

lol yea i wish i had known about adsense ages ago, i woulda set it up on all the cm9 file ;) i had 14 page views and 11 clicks yesterday, earning me a amazingly 16 cents XD

but the bottom line is its nice cuz is a way to at least cover costs and no one has to donated etc. donating costs people money, and in this economy money is tight hence why i have my clover link and my photon files in my sig instead of a donate to me button :) both are g reat ways to make money, without costing anyone anything but a few mins of their time
