Re: [Off-Topic]Everyone welcome

Finally found a nexus 10 in stock at a Staples 30 miles away today......it's like the nexus 7 but bigger and more expensive.... Shocker :). I can definitely see why it would be preferred over the 7 for movies and games but for general browsing I think the 7 is fine... Maybe better since it's much easier to hold. I have a Xoom running 4.2.1 and other than a little shudder and jerk now and then it's really not all that different. Team EOS did a good job on the Xoom. Anyway, I couldn't justify pulling the trigger, today anyway.

Re: [Off-Topic]Everyone welcome

The difference between a 7 and 10 might as well be a million inches.10 inch tabs are great but far too expensive.
[Motorola Droid X2] Ryno77:
True, the price difference makes it seem like your getting robbed buying the Nexus 10.

How long you think the nexus 7 has before Google replaces it?

Also, why are off contract phones so freaking expensive compared to a tablet? I know there are things in a phone that a tablet doesn't have but the overall size difference has to add significant cost to the tablet. I feel like the carriers are royally screwing us over...the nexus 4 is only like $350 direct from the play store but the S3 is $600 from Verizon.

Note to self:

Do not click and wipe everything because you want to see what happens in BSR.

I Knew I should have waited until I have a cpu to do anything. I'm wondering aimlessly pulling the battery and trying to get back to my nandroid. But it doesn't find it in recovery mode. Ugh.:confused: I did the whole hold power button and volume button. That was a life saver. Without y'all I'd be toast!!!!!

Just got my phone out of bootloop........ going to try and recover everything back. Funny thing is.... I made a backup Titanium Backup also. Didn't seem to have everything.

On the flipside, my phone is faster than it has ever been lol! And the apparently the apps that used to "force close" runs like a sewing machine. All in all, I can't wait to get to 2.1 tomorrow night.

Think of the money and the middleman involved with the contract. Put everyone on a circle and think of how they might interact.

Yes, scroll right or left to add a widget. You can also scroll up for another widget too.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Thats different. I know when you slide the widget down it puts you into this homescreen like mode where you can move left and right. For instance, I have beautiful widgets set as my default lockscreen widget. Pulling down the widget shows the full widget (screenshot attached). But tapping it while its not expanded puts it in that weird mode I posted above that doesnt allow you to do anything but unlock the device. But that mode it puts you in is totally pointless.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Depending on what you are trying to do, like backing them up and restoring them after a ROM flash. SMS Backup & Restore is a good app for that. Pulling them off the device to view them elsewhere, I dont know about that.
[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
Nah. I'm actually looking for a way to retrieve them from the phone and say...print them out.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I think thats a little more difficult. I just tested trying to view the xml file that SMS Backup & Restore saves for you. I opened it with a text editor and the texts were actually there but it had a bunch of other garbage around it. Definitely not organized.

And I think if you were to find the location of the actual texts on the device, it would probably be the same type of file.

Today's BreatheALittle's AshRant (channeling my inner Ash) :

Dear Mr. Tech Guy At Work, why is it that I called you down to my room to fix my classroom computer, but I have to tell you how to fix it?? If I would have known that I would have to stop teaching to show you what to do, I would have just risked doing it myself (our school is very strict about not attempting to fix our computers; we must use the tech guy). And how does that turn into you asking me phone questions?? I have to explain the difference between wifi and data to you?? And explain what the symbols mean in your status bar?? That scares me. This teaches me 2 things: 1) Tech knowledge is not all encompassing (Computer tech knowledge does not equal phone knowledge), and 2) I believe tech guys should never be of seasoned age.

Re: [Off-Topic]Everyone welcome

It was a rant. Relax. Didn't mean to offend you. In my anger and annoyance I let my PC side slip. Just I figured you guys knew me better than to think I meant to offend anyone. Let me restate: IT personnel should need to take continuing education courses on technology as they get older, just as many other professions require of their employees to stay current in their field. Unfortunately, it's been my experience that they do not, hence my comment.

I agree that age is not a sole defining factor, but it does certainly make an impact. The older we get, the more we have to do to keep up to date with our field. In my experience in both the corporate field and the education field, younger individuals are more up to date on the swift progression of technology. Can there and will there always be exceptions? Of course.

And your examples are just that - your examples. I'm sure you're speaking on *your* experiences in the corporate world. Education is a bit different. Each school gets 1 guy. That 1 guy needs to know how to deal with the computers and printers. Every classroom is equipped with the same PC desktop computer. The same printer. No variance, whatsoever. One of the IT guy's responsibilities is to troubleshoot/fix our computers when necessary. My computer was slow, needed cleaning up. That, to me, is a basic process any tech person should know.

Um, exactly. No need for sarcasm or sassiness. I was commenting on how I was surprised that I had to explain very basic levels of technology to our tech guy. Basic levels. So, using your argument, someone who specializes in the technology field shouldn't know what the icons represent in the status bar of their phone? Come on. If you're a smartphone owner you should know what the icons represent. I couldn't teach French because I don't know the language, but I could help out with classroom management and teaching techniques/strategies. Basic field knowledge. Hence, my comment.

Again, it was a rant. Believe me, I won't make the mistake of venting here again. Sheesh.
