[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
yeah it was something like 7 when I recounted.... thanks for the info...

My Nexus One has committed suicide. :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
nvm, not working AGAIN.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddcflimsreal:
Man bro. Your having bad luck. Mine does it occasionally where I turn it off. And try to turn it on it stays black and vibrates. But I just let it sit without the battery. For like 30 seconds. Then try. Never ran into this problem with my desire or evo. It was just this phone. Which I find weird. But try letting it sit for a lil.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
I let it sit for 2+ hours and then I turned it on. It worked for 2-5 minutes and then turned back off and got stuck at the "X"....

I have VERY bad luck...

Any ideas on a replacement? ($0-350 USD), I've been through 2 N1's, sadly...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddcflimsreal:
I've honestly just let it sit there for 30 seconds. But what are you running? I think the only reason mine does it is because I soldered the charging port. And obviously that hasn't been done to yours. So it shouldn't do that.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
When I got the replacement, it wouldn't turn on for a while, but when it did; it was on Android 2.2...

I got it working again a while later to update to 2.3.4.

Then it died again. I've decided to just return it and either get an Xperia Neo V or HTC Inspire.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Looks like the phone has a hardware problem. Maybe it was a refurb from amazon or something bad happened during the shipment?

Either way, return it to amazon for a replacement or get a completely different phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddcflimsreal:
Well at least Amazon is nice about it. Since your trading it. The inspire is better then the Neo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chubby_Skunk:
What about the Xperia Arc S? I was going to buy it from my friend for $350USD... good deal?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddcflimsreal:
That's reasonable but I'm still thinking the inspire is better then Sony. But that's just me. The inspire has some good roms too.
[General Questions and Answers] dragondgold:
Hello, my name is Andres, I'm from Argentina so sorry for my bad English sometimes :P. I am new at XDA and I would like to learn to develop some simple things in Android. Currently I made a simple script to change the OOM value of a process:

PPID=$(pidof com.imo.android.imoimbeta)

echo "-17" > /proc/$PPID/oom_adj

O don't want to run it on boot because IMO doesn't start on boot. I want to know if there's any way to execute some commands like this script but at certain events for example, run this script when I run IMO, is that possible ?

I am open to learn and read :)

Thanks you very much :)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellydroid13:
hi guys im coming from a droid 3 and i want a bigger screen but costs no more than $300 and a great dev community. is it worth getting a thunderbolt off of ebay for $300. i also want 4g and miui. thanks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renzon69:
You can get one on ebay for $200 or less in very good condition,so yeah its a good deal for $200
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellydroid13:
Ok thanks i think ill get one end of febuary. Another question, how does the screen compare to others specifically brightness and colors?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willis936:
It's a TFT display which is standard nowadays. S-LCD and IPS are better but I have no complaints. Also the pixel density isn't bleeding edge but that matters a lot less unless we're talking about pentile amoled (see: droid razr, YUCK).

The phone itself is a great device. It's big and it's heavy but the 4g standby is unmatched and the dev community, though now slow, has an enormous catalog of good software. So if you're renewing a contract I'd say get something newer but if you're buying outright online get a thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujayhawks77:
Not sure of your location but here in Houston there are several Thunderbolts listed on Craigslist ranging between $150 and $175.

If you can't afford a Nexus and want an LTE phone with lots of development done already (compared to the charge, bionic, etc), then yes, I would get it.

It's the only now cheaper LTE phone out there that will have Cyanogen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willis936:
Request serial numbers (ESN/MEID) before buying any phone on craigslist. Go to a Verizon store and all them to check if it's reported lost or stolen. You can get seriously ripped off on craigslist if you're not careful.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
+1 to that. Lots of shady cmda phones out there and if it's cheap, be even more skeptical.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonicanatidae:
The battery life sucks. The only real "fixes" are:

1. Get the LongLife battery and make a large heavy phone even

larger/heavier.

2. Root the device and install a better ROM/Kernel (Voids warranty).

3. Keep a spare battery around you at all times and swap them when

the first battery dies. (You'll spend $40+ for one worth the time. They

come with a back-plate that accommodates the larger battery, but

if you get a cheap one, the plate usually will not fit 100% correctly,

thereby disabling the antenna built into the back-plate, killing your

reception)

4. Turn off half the features that make this phone worth buying.

5. Buy a different phone.

I also hope you're not big on updates. At release, the Bolt

was Verizon's Flagship phone and it came with Gingerbread 2.3.5.

ICS is allegedly coming for T-Bolt in mid to late 2012, but considering

HTC/Verizon's track record on releasing updates for T-Bolts, I don't

suggest holding your breath.

Its by no means the worst phone on the market, but it has some issues.

Were I buying a phone, I would likely pick a different one.

As always, YMMV.

Good Luck!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tedkord:
IIRC, the bolt came with Froyo at launch, not GB. I'm positive mine did, so it was updated to GB already. When it comes to updates, HTC is best among the big boys.

I got two Rezound batteries from Verizon for about $20 each. They were selling all 4G batteries half off, and they may still be.

That said, yes, the battery life is atrocious. There is no sure fix for that.

Sent from my BAMF'd Bolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilogik:
Why not just get the rezound?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmo21:
I personally like the phone. I came over from the Incredible which I loved but we just got 4G in my area and needed to have it.

Battery life is horrible except when I bought mine on craigslist for $100 (already rooted) it came with an extended battery as well as the stock battery. I think I got a steal.

Now I can wait to use my upgrade on "the next big thing" or at least till the Nexus is a little cheaper.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidJoe:
As you say, your mileage may vary..

But you over looked another option to the battery issue... The LTE batteries are still 1/2 off. That makes the stock Rezound 1620mah battery $19.99 (got one for my wife Tuesday night). That battery makes a difference compared to the stock TB 1400mah battery, and it fits under the stock covers! (so no unsightly bulge).

Also, the External "battery only charger" was being sold for like $3.99 and lower (you need to provide your own "wall charger" for it). So you can leave the 1620 battery in the phone, and charge the stock 1400 as a "spare" outside the phone in case you ever need to carry a "spare" with you.

I have only 3 issues with my TB....

1. Bluetooth Phone book Access Profile (BT PBAP) doesn't work with my car's built in system when using the stock Verizon ROMs. (It DOES work with the leaked Open Mobile firmware.)

2. GPS can still be a little slow at times to lock onto my location more accurately than "within 10 meters" in Google maps. (sometimes its about 5 seconds to be "accurate within 3m", other times it can take up to 15 or 20 seconds, I haven't tried any of the fixes in the forums for this).

3. 3G/4G hand offs can still be slow, and during that transition, I loose data connection. Unlike the Bionic, when the 3G/4G hand off is done, data comes back automatically on the TB. I think hand offs were better/quicker with the MR2 radio, or one of the leaked radios before 2.11.605.9 got pushed out. But its still quicker/better than when I got my TB back in March.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdenker:
I would recommend this phone and I am selling mine as I can't afford the data plan anymore. If you want to pm me we can discuss it further.

Rumor is clear wire and Lte are joining forces, seems logical sense sprint owns %50 of the shares and there going Lte as well, will c..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickcv:
I wouldn't not recommend it. You can certainly do worse. If you tend to type one-handed or own pants with smaller pockets, it's not for you.

On the other hand, the screen isn't bad, the 4G screams, the kick stand is more useful than you'd think, and it feels very solidly built.

For $200, it's a great deal off-contract on Craigslist, but if you're due for an upgrade you can do better.

HTC Thunderbolt - Used - 30 Day Return Policy - $140

I ordered my thunderbolt from cowboom and my galaxy tab as well. Both came in really great condition. The Galaxy Tab was flawless; including retail packaging and all accessories.

The only "problem" with the Thunderbolt was that the top of the battery cover (where you use your nail....or a penny it seems in my case...) where you take it off is a bit dinged up. Otherwise, it functions perfectly and it allows you a 30 day window to decide if you like it or not.

They also have a Droid Charge, X2, and LG Revolution for around the same price on their.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
Oh God, nobody actual provides a proper explanation these days. Ok kiddies, sit down and listen.

Odex'd ROMs are usually stock, unless a ROM developer makes them that way. Basically, APK files normally have separate associated files with a .odex extension that help increase performance and lower boot time. How? Well a .odex file is part of the dalvik cache and helps the system expect which apps are installed and going to run. It's loaded into the RAM at boot time, and every APK has one. The downside is that because it's loaded into RAM and it's not part of the APK itself, it becomes extremely difficult (near impossible) to modify an APK. Normally the APKs we mod have to do with system themeing but there are other types of APKs we modify.

It's kind of like knowing the bouncer at a nightclub ahead of time, and being able to skip the line and get in quicker. Problem is, if you tell your friend to go to that nightclub, the bouncer doesn't know your friend and he can't get in (you modify an APK, but the .odex file is still associated with the original version of the APK).

Deodex'd files solve that issue by putting the .odex files back inside of the APK in the form of a file called classes.dex. Why does this help? Well, it makes modifying APKs a whole lot easier since everything is in one neat little package, and the .dex file will be loaded into the same general area in memory as the rest of the files in the APK. The downside is that at first boot the system may be slow since the cache has to be regenerated all over again.

It's like getting friendly with a bouncer at a night club, but then the nightclub changes bouncers (you wipe the dalvik cache) and you have to get friendly with the new one all over again so you're able to skip the lines (you have to rebuild the dalvik cache the first boot after you wipe so that you can boot quickly after that).

--------------------

If you don't want to modify a ROM or you modify it and that's 100% how you want it from now on, then it's OK to odex it. It's kind of like "finalizing" it. It'll boot and probably perform a little quicker, but you can't mod it anymore until it's deodexed. If you constantly flash mods for ROMs, you'll want to stick with a deodex'd ROM. 99% of the time, ROMs come deodex'd. Stock OEM/Carrier ROMs are usually odexed.

Hi all... Last year I had a P1000 in the US and going full tilt on AT&T with my smart phone's sim card..

Now I want to do it again but with a newer model.

From what Ive read so far....

the 6800 7.7 inch will do it too..

What about the larger ones.... 8.9 inchers or larger ones??

Can any of those also be my att phone as well as the tab??? ie?? calls in & out, mms, txt, video calls etc...

thanks for all your replies..

All replies are welcomed and encouraged....

thanks again... jh
[Galaxy Tab General] neubauej:
At this time just the 7.7 will have the native phone & mms apps. If you are okay with voip the 8.9 avail at att should work. No 10.1 is avail for att at this time that I am aware of.
[Galaxy Tab General] jimmbomb:
thanks neubauej..... now that I look at it (7.7)... Im thinking that Id like the 7 plus.. it'll fit in my front pocket better than that more square 7.7..

BUT... Will the 7 Plus do AT&T phone and mms, txt too?? Will it accept my AT&T smart phone data plan sim card??

Im using the GN7000 now and im stuck wanting to go bigger..

If the 7 Plus does it ALL.... then that;s the one I'll get...

So.... Will it???

thanks agian.....

I wanna see if the SILICRYLIC or double case fits into the seidio holster, i have the otterbox defender but its a little too bulky for my liking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeCore:
don't know about the silicrylic case but the otterbox commuter fits great in the active holster, and even fits the surface holster altho not as well. tpu cases can generally be made to fit the surface holster fairly well with a little bit of snugging up. using that...

IMHO.. it looks like the silicrylic is commuter/active format case so i'd guess it would fit better in the active holster.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
i did not see any instructions about this so i figured i would ask instead of turning my phone into a paperweight and yes i looked at the noob section and it states everything from 896 and 893 so i didn't find a solution to my question
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
You need to use the pathsaver. This will put you back on 886, then root and install 43v3r root, then update to 893, and then potentially 901 from there. Read up on how to use the pathsaver.

Instructions and more here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433783
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
Can you explain to me how this pathsaver does how it works a bit lost at this point
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dan46n2:
Pathsaver was for folks that updated to leaked builds that were never officially supported and put us off the OTA (over the air) update path.

Its basically a batch to push the old builds to your phone allowing you to root/permaroot and give you the files needed to run the 893 and 901 updates from stock recovery on your phone once you're back at 886, effectively putting you back on the "OTA update path", thus aptly named "pathsaver".

hth
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
ok that makes a bit more sense so its like updating a "official" signed ota backwards more or less that makes sense i am really new to locked bootloaders everything seems so damn complicated cause when i had my charge and my epic all i had to do is plug in usb get a .pit file flash odin and bam i was rooted with cwm recovery installed it was magic... so this is super complicated and really can't afford to brick my phone..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Gossett:
Hopefully someone knows this answer...

i've tried both BPS, forever root and 1-click. i've found no answer to this and if it's out there could someone please point me in the right direction?? I apologize beforehand therefore if said answer is out there. I used BPS went right to .893, right to .901. lost root. I tried the other ways (to save time I did if you need specifics i'll give them) to no avail. This is the message I get:

unable to chmod read-only file system. Screen shot attached. thanks
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
I think you need to use the pathsaver, and then once you get to 893 apply root, and 43v3r root, then go to 901.

there are mixed results with tethering to ad hoc networks but the general concensus I could find is is does not work on most ICS updated primes. Specifc phones and setups do seem to work. I have been having mixed results with Wireless tether on my rooted samsung captivate. sometimes it'll see the network sometimes it won't.
