[Motorola Droid X2] tallyforeman:
Wow SMH
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
The most awful part of this ongoing battle is the lack of knowledge on patent law by the decision makers. It could prove fatal if the broad terms are interpreted incorrectly. Laws should be put in place making such patents licensing mandatory with a 5 year limit on said licence. Afterwards they would essentially be open for the taking by any company but the previous. It would properly embody innovation over litigation.
[Motorola Droid X2] droidzika:
I agree. I thought there was a time limit on patents though ?
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
(Wikipedia is almost always good with numbers)

The 'term of patent' looks to be 17-20 years. Acceptable for every field but ours.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_of_patent_in_the_United_States
[Motorola Droid X2] droidzika:
Then some reform is needed badly. But I don't see it coming.
[Motorola Droid X2] litetaker:
i guarantee you those patents are fraudulent... there are many "prior arts" and moreover it is kinda incorrect and a blatant misuse of patents to patent such things... so if Ford patents its car, no one else can make a car? If USA patents a missile/aircraft/submarine/etc. no one else can use it?????????? EVEN if they design it from scratch WITHOUT the knowledge of how someone else made it? FU APPLE. You ripped of Unix, you ripped off stuff from opensource projects and you ripped off your stinking Mac GUI from Xerox. Rot in hell, you effing hypocrite.

As stated in the article, people in the patent office have limited knowledge. In essence they are accepting patents blindly whose scope is so vast and vague and general that it covers a lot more than what was invented. People with brains like me understand that that is utter BS!
[Motorola Droid X2] droidzika:
So I wonder why Google and Samsung lawyers having a difficult hashing this out.
[Motorola Droid X2] litetaker:
Its because Apple's lawyers are on steroids... The lawyers help write these patents and they know their way around pretentious BS language... they make sure that it is just on the edge of what is acceptable so that though they can make unfair use of it in court to curb other people it is still legal but not even 0.0001% moral. They know it, Steve Jobs knew it when he was alive... And he himself used to steal from others early in his career.. but now, out of fear of being unable to compete with more nimble players and out of sheer hypocrisy, Apple is waging these patent wars. What surprises me is there is no anti-trust lawsuits against BS Crapple yet...
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
I'm thinking Google would be well off fighting the foundations on which the laws are made. If deemed oh I don't know what the word/term is "detrimental equal technological progression" the restrictions imposed on all parties other than the patent holder would have to be rewritten. That gambit (every IP holder would face a virtual loss) could be the second step back needed to spring us forward.

Anyone know the rules about using the same judge for multiple cases? I feel like Apple favors Judge Koh and might present the next suit in her court.

So many things to respond to! You guys make a girl feel special, that's for sure. :D

You are too sweet! I'd like to think my avatar just shows my love for Tampa sports! The Rays, the Bolts... I'm totally a dedicated fan! :) And I'd like to think Android girls > iPhone girls. Hells yes. :p And yay for fellow Florida people!

Making me blush... :p

That is unfortunate. Rooting and flashing ROMS is the best part! I've only done it twice. The first time a friend did it for me, and the second time I did it but with his guidance. I'm nervous to do it on my own, but excited. I know if I brick my phone you guys will help me. :p There's so much these phones can do. It's exciting. :D

I don't look 30?? Awesome!! Thanks! Wait... what is 30 supposed to look like? Wrinkled? Crows feet? Muahaha :p

Seriously, you just made my day. :D :D I'm a very modest girl, and these compliments are... overwhelming. But they sure do make me smile! :p

That is fantastic! Got yourself a good girl, indeed. :) Get her on here!

Ooooh I'm tempted, but I don't know if I can leave CM7. How's the new Eclipse looking/running so far? Oh, and I love your SOA avatar. Might need to find me one when the show starts up again... :p
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Oh, no. She may love her phone but she is definitely not a gadget geek like most of us here. lol. I do all her flashing and modding. She wouldn't know what to talk about here. lol

Sweeet man. I had to take a long break cause my bike had a couple big breaks (bent tires + frame, broken quick releases, tires not holding air).

Had my first 15 mi+ ride yesterday and it was SHAWEET to be back but alas, tires aren't holding air again and I just can't put the cash out to fix it right now. And the bike is a little too small for me now so I'm looking at some new ones.

Thanks to the bike thread in OT I've found some good ones at around $350.

I think if I remember right about seeing a weak signal issue with the gnex. It's how it interprets the signal. I would call them and not say anything about where you got it and try to get a replacement.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Just an observation,

Driving thru moderate city traffic your phone freezes, without missing a beat you remove power, slip the phone from the holster case, remove the back cover, pull the battery, re-insert the battery, reboot, replace the back cover and holster case and get tunein radio app running again...of course you accomplish all this without missing a turn, speeding or running a red light.

just wanted to share his:

I upgraded from 5.0xx cwm to 6.0. The nandroids I made with the 5.0xx version were successfully working under 6.0 I tested 2 of of he nandroids and they both worked. That was a few days ago.

Last night I unrooted and locked my gnex as vzw was walking me thru some stuff on my phone..mostly trying to figure out the issues with my data connectivity ..it turned out I really didn't need to unroot..but I digress.

I rooted and unlocked the gnex again. All went well. I attempted to flash my fresh nandroid (done before i unrooted and with latest cwm v6.xx)..the nandroid did not flash. The gnex was stuck on the Google screen...for at least 15 mins. I pulled the battery and tried to get into fastboot and cwm and that didn't work either. I still had the gnex toolkit running. There's an option on there to flash cwm, so I did. Rebooted and was still stuck on Google screen. I pulled the battery again and it was at this time I was finally able to get into cwm. First thing I did was do a fresh nandroid and then tried to flash the previous older nands.. none worked.So I scrapped them. But I finally got the gnex going.

http://www.motorola.com/blog/2012/07/26/unlock-the-bootloader-on-motorola-photon-q-4g-lte/

For months now we’ve been working closely with our developers and carrier partners to provide users a way to to unlock the bootloader on their Motorola Mobility device while keeping the networks secure and satisfying carriers’ requirements. *

And we’ve finally found a solution.

Starting with the MOTOROLA PHOTON Q, users will be able to unlock the bootloader.

Other products will have this option too in the future.

now idk if this means future products or what but its a step in the right direction
