Seeing if anyone has experience with this. Selling my incredible 2 on eBay within US only via PayPal payment. When I looked up selling to other countries I saw a bunch of complaints that buyers were scaming by receiving the phone and then filing no receipt claim with PayPal and getting their money back completely screwing the seller. This was even with delivery confirmation, but not signature verification. This made me cautious still for a US sale.

So question is- should I only ship via UPS or fedex with a mandatory "Signature Verification" when shipping a phone valued at $200-250? More Costly shipping To prevent a charge back scam..

Thanks for any insight!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] winwiz:
1. Ensure Good feedback

2. Ensure you are seller protected

3. Ensure you make a note of the IMEI/Serial in case you need to get it barred (not sure if it will bar it internationally but worth doing still)

4. Package the item taking photographs at every stage, so in case there is a claim, you have proof you packed it

5. Post via signed and tracked delivery with the relevant amount of insurance for the package! (don't skimp on this or you'll get done over by paypal in case of a dispute)

6. What ever you do, don't lost the receipt and tracking number!

Hope that helps

My Samsung vibrant auction is ending today and i made sure I wrote " no international shipping".. also, NEVER ship the product until you receive the money on your PayPal account by going to there website, don't look at just the emails because people fake those... Mike is selling for 220.. I will ship with USPS priority with a signature confirmation...

If that IS the only way, is there a way to reset the device's "first boot" attribute back to true after the first boot, so that the manufacturer's setup software runs on the next boot?

[Kindle Fire General] N4rbs:
I read that risks bricking it.
[Kindle Fire General] N4rbs:
Anybody?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
right - that risk is allways given if you need to flash the original amazon rom

have read about an other method:

download original rom from amazon and put it in the "kindleupdates" folder

reboot device and go to "update device" in settings

no glue if this works ...

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hydera5:
When you update you will lose root. I believe there is an app out there along the lines of "root keeper" for keeping root. clockwork on the other hand I'm not sure about that but you may be able to get it back through ROM manager or re-flashing but don't quote me.

There are only 5 3G frequencies that cell phones use (outside of Japan): 850, 900, AWS, 1900, 2100. If a device is called "penta-band", that means it supports networks that work on any of those 5 specific frequencies, not 5 random frequencies. With tri-band and quad-band devices, it's a different story, as there could be multiple versions of devices, but a penta-band device covers all the bands.

I have seen this issue a lot lately and don't know how to fix it. It doesn't seem related to the ringtone issue in this link : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405457

What happens is my text messages will randomly stop playing their ringtone until I reboot the phone.

When I change the ringtone of the text message to anything else, it simply won't play. When I try to adjust the volume, it doesnt make the ting sound at all.

Whats also odd is that under power usage the phone is awake a lot. When I look at "Partial Wake Locks" I see that "AudioOut_3" has been awake for 1h2 m 22 s 19.1%...

Is some audio stack crashing?

[Atrix 4G General] shadowed87:
I am using CM7 latest weekly...

I just bought the motorola work and play kit, but I can't properly test it now since I will have an hdmi tv next week..

However, I tried pairing and connecting the bluetooth mouse and keyboard and everything went fine...The keyboard works and even the mouse cursor appears on the atrix display...

BUT

when i try to click anywhere the mouse jumps to the left edge of the screen...So I have this doubt that maybe it's something wrong...anyone can confirm this behaviour?

I don't know if this is a proper test (without connecting to the hdmi, and with cm7) but I just want to know if this behaviour is normal in this condition and it will work correctly with the tv.....or maybe I'm doing something wrong and this is a stupid/noob/senseless question...

any suggestions?
[Atrix 4G General] Hanzolot:
I've had a similar problem on other builds of CM7 as well... but I HAVEN'T had any problems with Blur-based ROMs (like Darkside/etc.). In those ROMs, bluetooth mice work fine in Webtop, mirrored HDMI OR just on the plain phone (with no other modes enabled).

I'm thinking of flashing back to CM7 now that they have landscape HDMI mirroring, perhaps the issue would be solved when in this mode?

It's a frustrating issue, not exactly sure why it behaves so strangely in CM7. =(

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
Hi, this isn't really enough information to go on.

Are you rooted? If so, which rom are you running? Since when are you running it? When did the performance decline become apparent? Do you notice poor performance only when trying to stream videos?

As for Ideas to solve this: Switch to a different rom such as virtuous g-lite/sense 2.0 to find out if your problem persists. Maybe there are certain processes running in the background, that impact your systems performance. Another issue might be, that you don't really get the full 7 mbit from whichever streaming service you are trying to access.

[G Tablet General] guayaquilander:
I've been using the new stock tnt 5699 for 3 days now, it seems to be far more stable and fast than previous versions, flash plays well on almost all the web pages I've tested, it only needs market and google applications to turn it into a really useful rom. So these are the modifications to "The Viewsonic G Tablet Super Thread (w/Market, Gmail, and Maps!)" to have it up and runnig:

1. Download and install z4root

2. Run z4root and choose "permanently root" to root your gtablet

3. Download and install rootexplorer

3. Run root explorer and Mount "/system" as R/w

4. Download and unzip gtablet ( http://xdaforums.com attachment.php?attachmentid=432583&d=1288749538) into your sdcard

5. Copy the contents of G Tablet\permissions to System\etc\permissions

6. Copy the contents of G Tablet\lib to System\lib

7. Copy the contents o G Tablet\APP into your system\app folder

8. Install them in this order:

GoogleServicesFramework.apk

OneTimeInitializer.apk

Talk.apk

Vending.apk

Gmail.apk

Maps.apk

9. Make sure you remount "/system" as R/O when you're done!

10. Restart your G, Connect to Wifi

11. Open rootexplorer and Mount "/system" as R/W

12. In rootexplorer long press in "/system/build.prop" and choose "open in text editor"

13. Where it says "ro.product.device=harmony" change it to: "ro.product.device=olympus"

14. Press menu button and select save and exit.

15. Perform the following steps:

Go into Settings.

Go into Applications.

Select Manage Aplications (all).

Select Market.

Select Clear Cache.

Select Force Stop.

Hit back button once.

Select Services Framework.

Select Clear Data.

Select Force Stop.

Back to home screen.

16. Open market (you should get an error message)

17. Reboot gtab.

18. Let it sort things out on its own. Go into Market.

19. Enjoy Market.

The only thing not working is the google calendar

Hope this is useful :cool:

Android Market without rooting?

Is it possible to install the Android Market without rooting? Or un-root after installing the Market?

The reason I ask is movie rentals from the Android Market. Movies won't play on rooted devices. Just wishing there were some way of getting movies rentals to work.
[G Tablet General] hwlester:
I haven't tried it on the Gtab, but I'd look at Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper). It allows you to unroot/root if you're already rooted. It was developed for the Kindle Fire to re-root after OTA updates, but it also works to backup and unroot for apps that don't like root. I've used it on a couple of non-Kindle devices and it works great.
[G Tablet General] ml_boston:
I was successfully able to run this:

- with temporary root

- using free es file explorer

The changes I did were:

2) instead of Permanent Root, I chose Temporary root. I needed to enable USB debugging first, but temporary root worked.

3) Instead of root explorer I used ES file Explorer. The Viewsonic-installed 1.x version did not work. I downloaded a newer version 1.6.1 from estrongs.com

Also, it took a few tries for market to show up under "system applications" in tap&tap's settings screen. I didn't have an "applications (all)", it may have been a root explorer thing.

I'm waiting for Market to self update like help says it will. This old version did FC on me once.
[G Tablet General] - Swift -:
You don't even need root to install the Market on stock!
[G Tablet General] MicroNuts:
Have u tried this on an unrooted gtab? If so are the steps the same without the need to rw

I have a question about step 3. How do you download root explorer when you don't yet have access to the Market?

[Edit] Never mind. I found an alternative method of getting gapps on to my Gtablet. It is an update file that automated the gapps install. Do a web search for "Gtablet Back to Stock w/ a few modifications" and you will find it. It is a February 22, 2012 entry of a blog entitled "Salvatore's Place"

I have basically every script/ mod right now done to my Revo and I use Antutu Battery saver running at level 3 (best battery saver level).

Does it switch because of my battery saver im thinking?

[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I could be wrong but I'm guessing that setting 1.9gHz on the Max is just that, the Max. Not necessarily the "constant" CPU speed.
[LG Revolution] Fallen224:
Now this might not be the answer you were looking for, but I had found that even with multiple power-saving measure my battery-life was still terribly short. The best thing is to get an extended battery, the one for the Revo is beast in size and battery life. Also, since you didn't mention it, changing from LTE to CDMA is also good if you're not really needing your 4G speeds.
[LG Revolution] samwelborn:
Your battery life is probably not too good because of the 1900 mhz setting... I use set CPU and you can use different profiles (including screen off, charging, battery threshold below a certain percent, etc.). This helps, but I don't get great battery life without a program like JuiceDefender. The problem there is, though, that it slows my phone down to the point of it taking a minute to get working, and by that time I have already done what I need to do... sort of sucks.
[LG Revolution] capt730:
I got the extended battery too and it is a world of difference. I can run all day and night without killing my battery. Even with moderate to heavy use, I can run through a whole day with no charger (and be comfortable). I just got mine through verizon for 24.99 the other week. I may have overpaid, but I don't trust amazon or ebay too much with some things.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I have an extended battery and I stay overclocked at 1.9gHz all day long. I don't use apps like juice defender or anything and I'm seeing 15-18 hours with moderate/heavy use.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
I use 5 different battery programs to monitor my battery and save my battery, but for some reason my battery drains in an hour.

The thing I see on here the most: monitoring programs, 4g connections, flashing left and right. People need to go to YouTube, and watch the video on how Android phones work. They are constantly learning what apps you use or don't use, they are learning how best to operate for your needs. When you flash a ROM or tweaks, it has to relearn. Sure track your battery for a day or two, see what programs are doing what and when, but then get rid of the extra crap, your phones don't need it. If you want extra battery life, get the bigger battery, you all knew coming to a smart phone that battery life sucks. Stop using app killers, and monitoring programs, they run in the background. Turn off auto run programs so one program doesn't start another.
[LG Revolution] sgschwend:
Has anyone measured the battery current? I would think if you are trying all these different setups and use scenarios the actual current draw is what you need to know.
[LG Revolution] 47th_Ronin:
+1

the more programs running the more drain. Widgets are convenient but can be real power hogs. Simple and streamlined is the way to go for me. You can have an awesome looking / running phone by being selective with apps and avoiding redundancies. If i have an issue, i dl the program/s i want to troubleshoot with and when im done i uninstall. No need to use resources that could be used elsewhere. You can always dl the app again or save its apk to the external sd or a laptop or both (thats what i did). Ofc, it will have a new learning curve but settles in a couple days, for me anyway.
