Just picked up a new Nokia WP Lumia 710 on Amazon Wireless. I have 30 days to return it for a full refund, so let's see how this works out.

Isn't the Galaxy Nexus only on Verizon? I didn't really want to spend anything over 400.

I'll pass on the GSM Galaxy Nexus as the price is way too high for my budget now. Great phone, not so great price right now.

Hi

Does anyone else have an issue with the stock Photo Gallery widget where if you select "Choose an Album" that none of the synced Picasa albums show up? On my Nexus it works fine, and on the prime if I select just to choose a single image all of the albums show up, but not if a select "Choose an Album"

Hello;

I need your help.

I need something like that: FlipCase

There are thousands of sundry products but wich manufacturer has the best quality? Avanto? Terrapin?

It also has to be very thin.

And it also don't should be expensive^^
[HTC EVO 3D] Jfree3000:
I had one similar to that for my Evo 4g and it was ok, the problem with that case I had was the cut out over the light sensor which covered the senor so when you spoke on the phone the display would not come back on unless you removed it from the case.

The case you linked to doesn't seem to have that problem, the only things I see that I would be cautious of is the way the phone slides into the part that holds it in place and what I mean by that is if you have a screen protector on it looks like it may grab the side of the screen causing the protector to bubble or peel off. Other than that it looks good, most of the cases like that are all the same and quality is the same as well. I would just go for the one with the best price.

Oh it may take a while for the flap to wear overtime an become soft, the one I had previously was very firm which really was not a problem. Good luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] oidenburga:
The thing with the screen protector is really good to know.

Thanks for the advice.

Xournal is a damn-cool PDF annotator and note taking app (with text and freehand drawing, etc). It's free, open source and ported to almost every platform in existence. There are several apps on the Market that come *close* to it, but is probably still the best note taking+drawing+pdf editor out there I think. Repligo does come very close, and maybe I'm just used to Xournal since I'ved used it before on Wacom tablets....

However, it has *not* been ported to Android, and the devs have no real interest in doing so.

So.... I focused my energies on getting Linux on to Transformer Prime, and finally got Xournal loaded.

I first rooted the Prime, using viperMOD (making sure to install VooDoo root keeper!!): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427125

Then I installed linux via chroot, using the Backtrack 5 image (ubuntu varient):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1428475

Next, I added the "universe" repositories to BT5's apt-get using this method:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine

Xournal is not in their primary repositories, but it is in the "universe" repository.

This allowed me to "sudo apt-get install xournal" and get xournal installed (launchable from BT5 terminal window).

All said and done, I got this, using Jump Desktop VNC client (extremely fast BTW):

Maddeningly though, that was the *EASY* part. I have one more step: find a VNC viewer that accepts styluses!!

I own an Adonit Jot Pro, and really enjoy its accuracy (especially now with touchscreentune!)

Touchscreentune made *all* the difference in the world to me: I couldn't write worth damn before it because of a lag issue on the screen. With it, I can write incredibly small text quickly and easily, and FAST (have to customize it to your writing style, but that's the best way to do it).

However, I would love to use the stylus while VNC'd, and just can't seem to get it to work :mad::confused:

I have tried Jump Desktop and PocketCloud, which are excellent VNC viewers because of their speed. However, I am having a bear of a time trying to draw lines through them.

Anyone have any recommendations? I *don't* mind spending $10 for a really great VNC viewer for android, but it's gotta support styluses for that kind of price....Free would be even better!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
i'd rather pay $10 for xournal to be ported to android! how difficult would that be for the devs?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Best case assuming that they are not tied to GTK+ and related libraries, port the important non-GUI parts to build with the NDK or do a static compile for ARMv5 and any dependencies they need (even to the point of static linking (g)libc). Then write the entire GUI in Java+Android and expose the important C code accordingly.

If they are tied to X11/GTK+, then it is probably a better use of time for someone to just write a comparable program from scratch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DarkSi08:
I've been having issues with the stock News & Weather widget for a month or two.

I love the weather widget. There's nothing else styled like it, and I prefer the look of it over virtually every other weather app on the market.

Problem is, it won't update. When I setup the widget, it just says 'No weather information to display.' I click through the widget, and it says weather is unavailable for my location. So, I refresh it, sometimes once, sometimes a dozen times, and it finally loads the weather.

Not a big deal, if it was only when I rebooted my phone, or something like that... but it's every single time my weather refreshes.

Now, it's not just one phone. I have 2 Gnex's on AT&T, a Nexus S, and an AT&T-branded Galaxy S II. The stock weather widget does the same thing on all of them.

And, it's not just me, nor is it my location. I have a few friends with Android phones - one with AT&T in San Francisco, one with Verizon in NW Tennessee, one with Verizon in Indiana, and a few with T-Mo, Verizon and AT&T in NJ. Every single one of them is having the exact same problem.

This widget worked perfectly until, say, mid-November, and then it just broke. I hoped it was just my GSII, but I had the same problem when I got my GNex. Then I started asking people, and, well, here we are.

I can't believe there's nothing really out there. I've searched XDA, I've searched Google, and I'm just not finding anything significant, which I would think it would be, considering how many people I know who are having the problem.

So, is anyone on here having the same problem? I can't imagine no one at Google is seeing this problem, with the exposure I've seen personally.

And, for the record, location services are set to use Wifi, etc, on all phones. Configuration shouldn't be the issue, but I'd be more than happy to try anything someone may suggest.

I've also grabbed the supposedly-revamped geniewidget.apk from 4.0.4, and not only is it not really revamped, but it has the same issue.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skimike02:
Same problem on both my mytouch 4g slide, and my tansformer prime. For the last few days I can get no update even refreshing. Tried in multiplte cities both with wifi and cell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dextroz:
You are not alone - I have two yakju stock-stock android phone with T-mobile USA and they both have the same problem.

BTW, don't be surprised - google ain't exactly known for its attention to detail, otherwise they would have made direct control access to the three color leds easier and less stressful on the battery.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Can you do better?

;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
I've had them all checked on all of my devices and it makes no difference. Setting a static location makes no difference either (the problem still occurs). I don't believe it's a location retrieval issue, rather a data retrieval issue.

A while back the team that did was was soliciting feedback for widget improvements (post Nexus One launch) on the Google support forums, I don't suspect they are still doing that though seeing as how the forum is dead ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kolyan:
Same here....on both GB CM7 and ICS 4.0.4 on different phones...lately it almost completely stopped working.

I remember this was an issues 1-2 years ago and google blamed weather.com for this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malikadnanm:
I've had the same problem on my Nexus S running ICS and my galaxy nexus. I don't understand how google still hasn't fixed this problem on 4.0.4. Kind of embarrassing that they can't even get a stock widget to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
It hasn't worked correctly since it was released with 2.1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DaLoona:
If you really need the wheather info, go for Go Wheather, works great for me, and get an app for the local news, I did it like that, cause the widget isnt working for me either.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shotta35:
Been having this more and more. Now i can't even put in a zip code as it says can't find location.

i'm running CM9 on SGS2 but happened with all devices. Anyone ever look at a logcat to see where it's trying to get the data from?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omnimodis78:
Nexus S here, ICS 4.0.4.

Even before I updated to ICS, I've noticed this issue with the weather widget on a daily basis, but now that that I did update, sadly this problem is ongoing. But whereas before (Gingerbread), it updated if I pressed 'try again' a few times, now it's hopelessly not updating. Only thing that seems to work is if I clear the data though the apps and set it up again. Definitely broken. And just like some of you have noted on here (and other posters on other sites), All sync and location features are enabled. I don't have any custom codes running on this phone.

When it does work, I am faced with a secondary problem: I live in a border city (Windsor, Canada), with Detroit being right across from the river, and even though I have a custom location selected, it randomly displays "Detroit" - which annoys me to no end because clearly the custom location does work since it does display it correctly at times. I've tried postal code, I've tried "Windsor, ON, Canada" (which is what the server uses on The Weather Network website). If I switch to 'Use my location', it almost always shows Detroit, with the occasional Windsor showing up. Detroit weather and Windsor weather can be as different as night and day, so it does matter that I am shown the wrong location, for heaven's sake, it's not even the same country! :confused:

Anyways, first post on here, hope the feedback helps. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ceribaen:
I find the problem happens often as well, though it almost seems like for me it's directly related to if it can see a gps signal.

If I'm driving in my car - I tend to be able to get the weather.

If I'm inside at work, or overnight with the phone on the bedstand - no weather information.

Sometimes using GPSTest and clear/update AGPS, then going back to weather settings and refresh will do it... but not consistently enough for me to think they're related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shotta35:
Question - do you guys have general Sync turned off? I notice that i'll try to sync 10 times and it'll fail but if I turn on Sync in settings it works on the first try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
My Genie widget is fine....I am not sure why you folks are having issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nexus712:
My Stock Nexus S weather Widget was fine (with occasional hiccup) until it was updated to ISC 4.0. Now since ISC4.0.3 and even after ISC 4.0.4 the weather widget will not update (yes I've tried all options to no avail!!!) unless I'll reset it and re-add the widget.

I bought other weather apps but none of them have something similar that I like (the next 24hr graph). If anyone has a solution it would be much appreciated. Google does not seem to care...

Oh wait, mine works.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
Phone was working good then I has this issue.

Last night I flashed the phone out of the box stock hoping to bring back my calls and texts but it did nothing.

Ive done factory resets and taken out the SIM card and just about everything else I can think of.

Does anyone have suggestions?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Vincent Arnold:
What did you flash too and did it say it succeded or did it fail?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
Flashed the "out of box" .886 then did an OTA update to get to .893

It said succeeded after the flash.

Ive also tried a hard reset and still nothing.

I can youtube and email all day long but I cannot call or text. Its driving me nuts.

Keep in mind that it was working fine and just stopped the other day and thats what drove me to an "out of the box" flash hoping to fix it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
Also wanted to add that im unrooted now that I updated to .893

No biggie considering that I was trying to unroot in the first place just in case it is the phone having issues and I can get a new one under warranty.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Johnnykorn:
If you RSDlite the FULL fxz file package (not minimal) and did a factory data reset, and that didn't work I would try once more then take it in and tell them there's no voice or text. :confused:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
Yup. RSDlite with the FULL FXZ file pack WITH a factory reset and I got everything working but voice calls and texts. I can do anything else though on 3g or 4g.

Ill try once more tonight and then its off to VZW to see what BS they spout this time.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] greeneink:
I would be on the phone with support and have my new phone tomorro,
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
I have a new one coming tomorrow lol

VZW said it was done.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] floydam:
New phone was fine for a little but now with the new phone I can make calls and text but now I cannot see emails/youtube/marketplace. Things like that.

They all keep timing out.

WTF! I love the Bionic but im going to VZW and see if I cant trade it in for something. No phone should have this many issues.

So my vibrant won't boot up. I've tried odining it back to stock, and no matter what I do, it will almost get to the galaxy S screen (freezes as it is forming the S). Download mode and recovery mode both work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Pull the battery, boot into recovery and wipe factory reset, wipe cache, and advanced->wipe Dalvik. The reboot. Will take longer b/c it has to rebuild Dalvik but it should work out fine. I had the same thing happen the two nights ago coming off ICS.

Don't forger you won't have CWM and it isn't in the market for 2.1 anymore. You can download it from my signature. Put Update.zip in internal and hit reinstall packages twice (that is if you want flash or restore).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sk3tchy:
Are you able to "Reinstall Packages" from recovery or does that fail?

Did you check re-partition when converting to stock?

You may have corrupted your internal SD
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherrybombaz:
The reinstall packages fails. It says: "can't open /sdcard/update.zip" (no such file or directory).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherrybombaz:
I don't have the option of wiping the Dalvik in recovery. I think its because it went back to the default "Android system recovery <2e>"

I tried wiping everything, but when it boots, it goes to the vibrant screen, then to the tmobile screen (the boot sound works), but then, the screen turns black and it goes back to the vibrant screen again (and it just keeps looping).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
Maybe try ka7 or kb5 instead of jfd? Investigate /mnt/efs and the copies in /sdcard/backup? Don't know much about eds, might be worth a look. Reflash SBL for good measure?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherrybombaz:
So I flashed ka7, and it gets past the S logo now, but then it turns black and now it says "Kernel Panic" upload mode:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Go to the dev section and download the Toolbox. It is stickied. It has drivers, Odin and the Pit/Tar files to get you back to stock. Get back into download mode and re-run Odin with those files.

Don't forget that you don't have to see the DL mode on your screen as long as the COM box is yellow in Odin.

Also check out this thread.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherrybombaz:
I tried using the toolbox and reflashing the stock rom, but it just gets to the t-mobile "stick together" screen, then screen turn black, then it goes to the battery charging screen.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
If you're doing Odin right, with a good rom and pit file, and still have trouble, I guess you could flash the SBL. I had a rom flash (via zipfile) do something unknown which made it nearly impossible to get into download mode. Once I did, I flashed the SBL and I was fine. No idea what happened. I even had a nandroid backup, not a restore, hose my phone once. When the other Phone Gods turn against you, Odin is your friend.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cherrybombaz:
But I can get into download mode. And which sbl should I flash?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
Probably the closest-to-stock Froyo SBL you can find.

I'm using a GB SBL from this thread, and he has Froyo also:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sk3tchy:
I got stuck in this loop a few months back flashing back to stock from CM7 when Odin froze.

I could get to Download Mode and Stock recovery but had the same error when attempting to "Reinstall Packages" from recovery. The internal SD partition had corrupted.

I flashed Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo with Odin, which fixed the Internal SD.

If you follow the write up on unbricking when you have the little triangle and phone error on your screen it will get you out of this one.

Your bootloaders are not the issue here. 2e Recovery isn't seeing the Internal SD Card and that it what is causing the hangup on boot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
Yeah, probably just flashing a decent kernel would fix you up, but unless you can find an Odin kernel file, you need to do the whole rom.

BTW, with Linux, you can use

tar -tf <rom file> if you want to see what's in a rom.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sk3tchy:
You can download the Odin flashable Overstock Kernel which contains the red recovery and flash it. That would give you the ability to format the internal SD and then Mount it to your PC through recovery and copy a Rom over to flash.

Otherwise the Unbrickable Froyo I mentioned before will also work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danvsullivan:
The only thing you can do when stuck in a boot-loop, if the previous suggestions don't work, is to just reflash it. You can flash back to stock easily using Heimdall One-Click. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1278683
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momashi:
We're missing some info here. What ROM were you using before you flashed back to stock? Did you use a pit file in addition to the pda file in ODIN?

If you were using an ICS (android 4.0.x), flashing back to stock and didn't use a stock pit in addition to stock pda, it would definetly be giving you problems. ICS uses a different partition scheme then does stock (which is on android 2.1). The pit file tells odin how to partition your phone.If you're flashing from Froyo, then this should not be relevant as it uses same partition scheme as stock.

[Xperia Play General] ozzmanj1:
I would not go anywhere above a class 6. Class 10 are great for transferring of long or big files but have are slower if you are just doing small files for like playing games like Gameloft games where the files are read from the sdcard. I would also stick to preferably Sandisk. I have a 32gb class 4 sandisk but when I do sdcard test it comes back as 5mbps rather then the 4mbps. So in a nutshell, either a 16gb class or a 32gb class, those are the two options I would go with. :D

If you're gonna upgrade, get a 32GB, waste of money to just get another 16.

Don't get a Class 10 those are made for digital cameras and video cameras. The Class 4 Sandisk 32GB is the known reliable good card for this phone. Be careful of fakes.

I think class 6 is not the most compatible but works better of with 4 l, get the 32GB only a few more dosh.
