If your boycotting apple what about sony microsoft nintendo toshiba etc? They use the exact same people, foxconn, but how many people would give up their games consoles or high def tvs etc?

Comments like these where only apple is singled out are simply biased and unfair because ALL those using these people are equally wrong.

I don't like apple at all but I think ignoring the other companies involved, including some android phone makers such as sony ericsson, is letting them off and letting one company a lot of us dislike be our mythical evil bad guy when in reality they are all as bad as each other.

[Off-topic] shockem:
This is what I call a fair judgement.

You can't blame apple as a company.

Foxconn is the one mistreating its people. And apple uses foxconn because it is cheap.

i don't like nor own Microsoft products, i go Linux

i don't own any consoles, the only console i ever had was the Intellivision, which doesn't even exist anymore, except as Emulators

for my games fix i got the PC/Android/Web games

phones i'll only buy Korea made original Samsung products

only the Foxconn China factories have poor human rights, the other ones in other countries follow adequate guidelines, you can blame that in the lack of China's own respect for humans quality of living

i don't like sony devices, they don't live up to my expectations, now even Nokia fell into that category after joining with Microsoft

there's actually a facebook boycotting club for foxconn, but no clue what they are saying since most of the stuff on the wall is not in english

[Off-topic] mistermentality:
I wasn't intending my reply to be meant personally about you, just the argument in general that some people make of only apple being the one responsible, which was what I thought you were saying, so apologies if it was taken the wrong way.

As for Samsung, foxconn assemble some of their phones too, and have done since about 2008 / 2009, so there is no way to know if a particular samsung model is a foxconn one or not unfortunately.

Foxconns android customers include Asus, Lenovo, Motorola, Samsung and Sony Ericsson which I mention simply because as an Android fan I worry when its only apple people notice doing these as I think they are all as bad as each other, and I'm in no way trying to pick on anyone using Foxconn products as I myself have a Sony product and an Asus, and they are very good, but they could well have been produced by the same people.

The problem is that many companies outsource to the cheapest source which will always be one where workers are paid a pittance and their rights are unimportant because the more rights a worker has, and the better their wages etcetera, the higher the cost of production becomes which is why big companies like apple, microsoft and sony etcetera won't build them in say America or Europe.

I honestly don't own anything made, that I know of, in a foxcon factory. The only exception might be this phone, but to be honest, all my other htc phones were not from China. My wife's nokia is from Mexico. And so we're her previous blackberries. My computers are gateways from 2005. And I don't own a tv or video recorder made in the last decade. Let's see. My DVR is made in Mexico, and my Atari jaguar is made in USA can you believe it? My pioneer receiver is Indonesia. My hand tools are all made in USA, and I buy DeWalt 18v cordless tools because they are the only ones not made in China, they are made in Mexico, and their batteries are made in Japan.My work cloths I usually get at a thrift store, so where they are made is mostly irrelevant, but my work boots are Redwings, and I make sure they are the ones made in the USA. My tennis shoes are new balance, also made in the usa.So I actually am boycotting them all. I'm so glad I did not get an xbox360 when I wanted one now that I know they are made in a foxconn factory. I know there are things you can't help buying that are made there, but you can at least try.
[Off-topic] dexter93:
why? do you believe that foxconn is the only company that does that? how are you so sure that in such big factories all over the world it doesnt happen? ever been there?

the only way to be sure that you arent taking advantage of anyone is to do it yourself, but i dont see you making your own motherboard, car or clothes...

Eh, Microsoft is largely a software company, and 360 plants actually have outstanding work conditions.
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
SO MANY things are made in China that you could use that argument for almost anything.

The real argument is that iOS is restricting, closed source and steals allot of their ideas from other OS and companies. It's the distortion field that makes everyone believe their implementation is cool. Also, iOS is dumbed down for the masses and it's pretty (the only slightly,redeeming quality IMHO).

Not using Apple devices because they are made in China is a superfluous reason. There are MANY better reasons,not to use/buy (from) Apple (devices)
[Off-topic] Skv012a:
Welcome to overpopulation and under-education. Sad, but true fact is that for most of those "poor" workers, its pennies at those factories or starvation (and US pennies, are basically full chinese dollars, that buy food and clothing and pay the rent, even if you live in a box).

Easy for you guys to talk the talk, but you wouldn't survive an hour that those people do 24/7. And let me get to the real kicker- you wouldn't even dare to care to try losing the comfort of your own shoes, let alone home or anything more significant than that. Just be happy where you ended up in the pyramid and if you make it rich, try to help those masses.
[Off-topic] masondoctorjt:
That's why I said try. If you buy from places that have some form of regulation, than at least you are trying. Sounds like you are saying, "well I don't know for sure, so I'm not even going to try" well to each his own, but at least I feel better for trying, even though I might not have as much money in my pocket because of it.
[Off-topic] mistermentality:
If you read news reports microsoft specifically have been singled out in some. For example http://m.kotaku.com/5875359/xbox-fa...regular-production-adjustments-says-microsoft

360 plants from foxconn are not outstanding at all and if they had such conditions you would not have had ten suicides two years ago nor the recent suicide threats by people building the xbox.

Maybe you believe ms are great employers outside america but they are not.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadedCyan:
I only need Twitter and Facebook ( G+ would be a bonus )

So far every application I use, regardless if it's seesmic, hootsuite or tweakdeck, does not work well.

Seesmic and Hootsuite does not have a unified wall for all tweets and status update like tweetdeck does.

Tweetdeck (and the modified "Tweakdeck") does not support full Facebook functionality. Sometimes I would be missing notification for certain tweets or post as well.

Seesmic does not allow one to view who has "liked" your post.

It is issues like this that annoys me since at times I cannot respond to friends or other people. Every app has to lack something. I cannot find an app does function like Facebook + Twitter. Somebody SIMPLY has to take out certain features.

I'm hoping for someone on XDA to prove me wrong. Any suggestions for a better social networking application?

[Milestone XT720 General] TIMZOZO:
Ho no 7.1.0.7 and cronos x latest are in my opinion the most stable gingers. Fjfalcon cm7 is under developmemt and is my favourite but still has a couple of bugs that need to be resolved. The first 2 that I mentioned seem to operate well with low ram but also have a few issues of their own. Just make sure u do the tweaks on fj cm7 and flash off a stock and all is good.
[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
If you follow cm6,cm7 ram manage thread you will not have ram issues.

I recomend flfalcon cm7 and ho no cm7,and cm6.

Don't use 3d launcher they are ram hogs.

J.Y.Daddy doesn't support his builds anymore so would stick with support builds.
[Milestone XT720 General] vladi-it:
cm7 test branch releases (Peshovec) is very, very good :)
[Milestone XT720 General] anthonya2369:
What are the pros/cons of fjfalcon compared to HO!NO!?

I am currently running fjfalcon but it seems to crash a lot on camera still...but it could be my sd card being corrupt. I am curious if I should replace it with another 8GB or go larger with a brand name. Thoughts on that too?
[Milestone XT720 General] TIMZOZO:
Pros for fjfalcon are that it's under development and getting better and better almost weekly. I like the new rotation and led notification. Ho no has problems that will never get resolved. Minimal but will always be there. I'm running cm6 by Mioze for now, got frustrated with freezes on cm7 roms but will return when cameras are fixed.
[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
I think cm6 and cm7 are about the a little more ram for freeze on cm7 it has never happened.

The biggest problem is launchers they are big ram hogs.

Cm6 and cm7 are both are under development .
[Milestone XT720 General] TIMZOZO:
I agree. Launcher makes a big difference. ADW launcher seems to launch well but scrolling speed is a bit slow.

I am trying to be supportive for her but with everything we have been threw in our marriage I am having trouble carrying everything on my shoulders. I am trying to be the rock for her and put all my needs aside to take care of my wonderful wife. I just needed an outlet and the xda photon group has been wounderful. Thanks in advance to everyone.

As a fellow Medic, I feel your pain.

On April 20, 2010 our lives changed forever. First mowing of the season, the landlord had some work done in both yards, and never finished debris removal. My then 4 year old daughter was behind me in a trailer playing with Barbies. I saw a rather large rock, put the tractor into reverse, my daughter falls out of the trailer, and I ran her over. She suffered a partial left foot amp, a compound tib/fib. I threw the tractor off of her, scooped her and ran into the house. My son called 911, and I grabbed my radio. She was bleeding everywhere. I set her on the counter, and the most vivid thing I can remember from that day is her grabbing what was left of her toes, and ripping them off. I secured them, iced them down, advised incoming units of plans to have her medevacced to the only hospital in the region that does micro surgery(the local "trauma center" doesn't have this capability). Truck arrives, we hop on board, IV initiated, loaded her up with Fentanyl, and intercept with my wife at the LZ and fly her. 5 weeks later she was discharged with ICU psychosis and PTSD as well. My wife became sick after that with Lyme. Not the stuff that goes away with a course of Doxy. She just finished about a 3 month course of IV Rocephin and oral Flagyl. She still has symptoms. Here in NY chronic Lyme doesn't exist according to our health insurance carrier, so everything is/was out of pocket.

Anyway, beyond all of that, we turned to the Lord. Not necessarily religion, but the Bible. And he has made our lives easier. I wasn't a believer until all of this happened. My daughter was the strongest faith I have ever seen. God does change lives. Read his word, and lay your problems at the altar.

Good luck my brother.

I just wanted to chime in here to let you know I empathize with your situation as well. Three years ago, my then two year old son (now five), got very sick for two months and no one could figure out why. Doctor after doctor blew it off as the flu or some other nonsense before one FINALLY sent us to our area Children's Hospital. He was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and admitted to the icu with DKA. We spent three days in the icu and two more in the hospital as his blood sugar was insanely high and had been for a long time. It's been a hell of an adjustment for all of us, and it's still stressful, but he's healthy and happy now. I don't know about Graves Disease, but I get the diabetes, and it does get easier.

Hi guys I have installed the android revolution hd rom on my gnex and wouldn't want to change it but it saw a custom rom lockscreen picture with a function I would really like on my phone:

With stock when turning the screen on in the lockscreen you can choose if unlock or open the camera but nothing else; I think it would be useful to have also a quick SMS sending option or phone app opening!

Is there a way to install it without changing rom?
