:confused: umm Josh, both? The Aurora is a 7" tablet, not a phone and it's processor is 1.2ghz

Or maybe something really got lost in translation :D
[General Questions and Answers] joshw0000:
Well that's what I get for reading the OP, clicking the links, and then jumping to the last page. I thought you were referring to one of the phones.
[General Questions and Answers] joshw0000:
Dunno what you're paying but I'm sure you can find something in your range with more impressive specs....Like and HP Touchpad. 16 GB versions sell used for about $150 and usually come with accessories. 1.2 ghz dual core, 10", running CM9 and WebOS. That'd be my choice.

Make a post in the marketplace for what you're searching for and your price range. You'll be surprised by what you find.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Not to be mean,but the touchpad weighs a ton. It's like using a netbook.

[General Questions and Answers] joshw0000:
It's heavier than the 7" tablet the OP is considering but it's also a bigger tablet, has a bigger battery, dual core processor, Beats audio speakers and it's crazy cheap.

I've got a Transformer Prime and absolutely love it. If I was shopping for a tablet under $200 it would be the Touchpad all day long. I had one when they only ran CM7. Now that they've been ported to CM9 and WebOS became open source, they're ideal for a crack flasher on a tight budget. Brick it, run WebOS doctor and crack flash some more.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
The ainol has ICS out the box. It's also $90 + shipping brand new,and 1080p HD. It's light and thin with all the slots.Engadget didn't find anything wrong with it,and Google don't mind it exists, heck they let it show off ICS at CES. I'm way impressed, aren't you?

[General Questions and Answers] joshw0000:
And shipping from China is how much? How long does that take? What's the chance he'll actually receive it. Google doesn't mind if their software is put on any device, that's the beauty of open source. If you're looking for a smaller, slower tablet, limited to Android only, that you MIGHT receive in 8-12 weeks, the anal (I mean ainol) is the way to go I guess.

To each his own. I just wouldn't order anything overseas when I could buy a comparable (better) replacement locally for the same price. I was just throwing that out to the OP as my recommendation. I had no intentions of starting a pissing war.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Haha no pissing contest, I just like the little chinese tab,and the touchpad isn't local for me like yourself... I ship stuff I can't find here all the time, never lost anything. Gotta say that last one had me ROTFL. And about that $90 Droid x2...serious?

[General Questions and Answers] joshw0000:
Not $90 (I was comparing to the phones in the OP) but I'd probably sell it for about $140. Interested? I'll throw in a Moto car dock and it has a Zagg protector installed.

I just ordered a Zopo 100 from Merimobiles.com, I have mixed feelings about them,I missed a silicone case off the order and just for that error they want to charge and extra 25% on the cover ($8.99 if bought at the time or $10.65 if added later.) just gives a feeling of meanness as the case probably cost them $1......

Advise to others buying from these guys.... double check before you hit buy, they are worse than builders changing for extras..

I'll update as to their service levels and the ZP100 of course

Expected to Arrive with a better screen, more powerful dual-core CPU (1.5GHz AML8726-MX) and a quad-core independent GPU (mali 400 mp4),

Hope this helps,

It happened to me once on another Chinese site (not sure which one),

But since then I'm just going through all of the items I think I'll need and add them to my cart, and then I sit and sort all the "****" I accumulated out, and finally I Order,

Hoo...At least you'r not a "smart-ass" like me when I bought my "Star x18i",

I said: hey ... it looks just like a "Sony ericsson xperia arc" why pay 8.99$ for the leather case they offer me if I could buy an original "Sony ericsson xperia arc" leather case for 3.99$...very smart...

Just one little problem, my phone is wider by a micron,

End up paying 10.99$ for the first the case...which means I saved myself (-)5.99$, did i say very smart already...

Hi! If you're looking for Chinese phones, look for Huawei, Meizu, Lenovo, ZTE, Zopo, or THL. Huawei and Meizu are more on the high-end. They are about to release their quad core phones. You can find some good smartphone info here: www.chinaphonereview.com
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
I'm saving for a quad core phone at the moment (the world's fastest at time of launch and cheapest in class) so if I pronounce like you I'll probably be the guy with an anal dickwad( ainol and D Quad)

But I won't rule you out,my girlfriend still has a Nokia (don't understand her,but love her)

I would pass on getting a chinese one, if you dont have the funds just get a used galaxy 1 or nexus s on ebay
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
I have two Huawei phones,both Ideos phones. Now the u8800 has similar specs to the Neo V for half the price. My wee little ideos u8150 is a fun root toy for equivalent of $90 (complete with a month unlimited data and 2GB memory card)

I'm very happy with both,never claimed warranty, my u8150 fell in the tub,and yep,still working. 512 RAM on the X5 is okay, but I've seen the galaxy note, and if Huawei say they can do better,I might just believe them.

So no thanks,don't need a single core, the Droid x2 sounds good,but again, I want the best...And not pay a ridiculous price (no contract for me thanks) Huawei give vanilla android (maybe with their launcher,which you can always clear defaults) so nexus won't be anything new. I'm yet to use ICS but Huawei do give quick updates to software (my X5 got gingerbread) so they pretty much do everything I want (hear that Sony?)

Most of the stuff in my house is Chinese (toaster, fridge,cooker,surround sound speakers for my DVD, even the digital set top box) and quite frankly I've had them for years(specially the fridge, inheritance) I got nothing against chinese,infact, my PC has a Chinese motherboard (foxconn) and it's wow.

I've thought through it and there's nothing really to stop me from buying chinese stuff. The iPhone is technically made in China, Americans swear by it for build quality. If you get Genuine Chinese stuff,you'll be surprised.

By the way, for now...only three deliveries took me more than three weeks and only one was from China, And given that I do not pay shipping because I always use the "slowest" form of delivery when I order (registered mail), I think it's pretty impressive,

Also take into consideration that I'm from Israel, shipment here from China is one of the slowest,

Now, I do not live in the States so I do not know the cost of living there, but here there is a serious difference in the prices of such products, so for me it's a no-brainer

Sure some apps let you quit from the app itself but others don't.

Are u saying you would like to have it duck outta the screen?

It would be nice if it was sorta programed as it was on the GNex when in apps such as YouTube when viewing a video in full screen the buttons disappear (actually disappear not dim out) and when you touch the screen the buttons reappear.

Yep agree... this thing with menu top right and notifications bottom left is nuts. Buttons should be near the bottom where I hold it. Ideally the menu buttons (Inc app drawer) would be bottom right and notification top right.

Actually all devices have power button which can be used for getting back from fullscreen mode.

There is an issue on code.google (24546): hxxp://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24546

I think it's pretty nice solution. Also there can be "hide" button on panel.

Hi,

Crap is a relative term.

What you dislike,others may feel is essential.

If you truly want to make a ROM "crap-free",look into using ROM CLEANER

It will help you in exactly the way you want...

You could also install a custom ROM if you want, those usually have most of the operator and non essential apps removed.

Hi yall,

I am running MIUI **.9 and tiamat 1.1.5 kernel for the Dinc 2. Both have been installed for over a month or two, and just recently I noticed I won't getting internet away from wifi networks. I have full bars but next to it on the statues bar, there is no 3G or 1X icons and no internet.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you check to make sure you had movie data turned on?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
tiamat 1.1.5 kernel broke 3g a couple updates ago for MIUI. I would just flash .7 aero bfs kernal. Its the best kernal for MIUI to date.

Yes, data is turned on.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Navy_RN:
Cool, I will try to do that.

Can I just install over tiamat or do I have to unistall it some how?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
You need to place it on your sdcard, reboot into recovery, wipe cache & davich cache and flash the new kernal. Make sure you do a nandroid backup first though.

My phone were able to connect to sprint to and is ready to accept connections but my EVO VIEW did not detect it. I have no problem detecting my home wifi but not my TP2 using Energy rom.

Any help would be great. I have not update the rom on this View.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rotor nuts:
ohh man i was having the same problem, and after searching for close to 2 hours i found how to make it work. unfortunately i didnt save any of the links, but i can tell u what to look for.

1. first thing is your evo view needs to be rooted.

2. need to download root explorer, paid app, or es file explorer and manually set it to have root access.

3. then u need to do a search for adhoc or wpa supplicant, which is the file u would get from the adhoc search.

4. turn off wifi.

5. go to system\bin folder and save your old wpa supplicant file. people recommend renaming it as wpa supplicant.old.

6. paste new wpa supplicant file in the system\bin folder.

7. configure permissions for new file.

8. i reset the device but i didnt see anything that said it was necessary.

for some reason the flyer/view does not have permission to connect to adhoc which is what the tp2 tether works as.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] stevedebi:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1194709

I just did it. However your View must be the correct software and hboot versions.

The Stock ROM will not see Ad-Hoc WiFi points, and the NRG ROM will force reboot if one tries to set it up that way. I gave up on changing NRG and just rooted my tablet.

BTW no need to reset the device as a last step, just stop and restart the WiFi.

I did read thru the steps, where do I download the drivers? Desktop or the View?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] eaxes:
Hi, I own a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830L, my carrier is Movistar Argentina. I bought this phone originally with Android 2.1 (apparently, the firmware was S5830 OKPUFN), which I upgraded just this morning to Android 2.3.4 using Samsung Kies. Point is ever since the upgrade I haven't been able to access my carrier's 3G network (Wi-Fi works fine, by the way).

After said upgrade, I followed this post's (movilzone.org/manuales/como-actualizar-samsung-galaxy-ace-s5830-a-android-2-3-4-gingerbread-en-espana-argentina-eeuu/) instructions to install S5830 DDKQ5, which went by smoothly, although I still can't use the 3G service.

Is there any way to fix this?, or at least go back to the firmware it came with?

Any help will be appreciated,

Julian.

For one reason or another, on the CM7 that has been released (this may change when the fix for the SDCard formatting comes out), some apps from the market display:

Error

Couldn't Install on USB storage or SD Card.

Apps Effected

Aldiko

Line Runner

Wordpress

Workaround

Go to Settings->Storage->Unmount SD Card

Once the SD Card Unmounted message is shown in you notifications, install the app

remount SD Card and Enjoy

Simple fix but I hope it helps

Also if you know of another app giving this error, please reply and I'll add it to the list so this workaround pops up in search results.

I finally got around to installing the CM7 Alpha yesterday. There were several apps from the Amazon Appstore that would not install without the SD card being mounted (but then would not install because they were too large).

I took my Titanium Backup and opened the .tar.gz files in Ubuntu (there are two ... the one with the longer name) and was able to get the apks. Then I moved them to internal storage, unmounted the SD card, installed, remounted the SD card, and restored data from TiBu.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jeffml:
Not a matter of them being too large but their apks were set up to prefer sdcard installation.

An easier way is to set your TiBu preferences to install only to internal.

I think I bricked my phone, but wanted to check here first. Needed to send device back for warranty service, but may have just hosed myself. Was running new ICS FW 3.24 and testing ARHD & IC ROMS without issue.

I set my CID back to T-MOB010 as device was originally with ADB. Rebooted into bootloader and verified the updated CID was shown and it was.

Now this is where I think I choked....

I meant to flash RUU to take back to stock, but got my steps mixed up and did the fastboot command to put S-On back onto the device. Now the damn thing won't even boot up....black and no signs of life. My PC can no longer see it either.

Any suggestions or should I give up hope because of hat one mis-step?!?:confused:
[HTC Sensation] shootind5nukes:
I know you have probably done all this but heres what I would do. I would take the battery out then put it back in then hold volume down and power on and see if hboot will turn on. If hboot won't turn on your bricked. sorry dude. Also if you would have ran a stock RUU it would have s-on your phone as it would have flashed stock hboot I believe.
[HTC Sensation] gf7800:
Sorry i think your only chance is Warranty !!
[HTC Sensation] shootind5nukes:
If your provider is tmobile I have a fun fact for ya. There going to ask you 3 questions after they waste an 30 minutes of your time trying to trouble shoot "it just won't turn on". They ask you, is it in one piece(yes)? Is there any physical damage(no)? Are the water indicators white(yes)? Is the battery damaged(no)? If you answer correctly they'll send you out a new phone right then and there. If you lie and send your old one back and lets say it's been ran over, they'll charge your account full price for the phone. When the new one arrives you send the old one back. They never ask about rooting or anything of that nature, so your not telling them any lies. NICE. Also they're going to ask a bunch about the battery on the phone. They're hoping just your battery is ****ed up. To speed past this step tell them you have a second HTC battery made for the Sensation that doesn't work either.
