Hello, I tried wiping all data and nothing. I don't belive that changing the ROM is the solution, remember I'm trying with two ROMs (CM-Nighlty-20 and miniCM 2.1.9).

Hello, what do you mean?

I have google talk installed and more google apps. For example, Google Mail is working fine.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zainjo:
Search for this zipped file ( gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip ) and flash it using cwm
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrda:
Oh, thanks, that was the problem. I was installin newtalk.

Thanks
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
if you use titanium backup you will see that there are plenty google apps installed,if by any chance you unistall one of those you may not be able to access the market but if you havent unistall any of this then your problem doesnt have to do with that....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Only way I can explain what happened is my screen's color was way off, like as if you slightly disconnect a TV/video cable (the red, white and yellow cables), specifically one of the video ones. The whole color output is off completely.

I was just on Google Reader, chilling. I longpress my Home button, because in LauncherPro I have it set to show my honescreens. The homescreens popped up with this weird color effect. Could it be LauncherPro? I didn't jerk my phone either, neither has it fallen hard recently.

No doubt, I freaked out. Went to screen mode, thought it'd refresh the screen, but just powered off and took out battery and took out my SD card just to be extra safe. Let the phone sit for half a minute, popped battery back in and here I am writing this. Thankfully it's back to normal now. Could it be the SD card? Havent put it back in, come to think of it, the card must be over a year and a half old, I've had it since my old BlackBerry, and its only 2GB. I need to get a new one eitherway.

I'm on Calkulin's Stock Rooted EK02.

Never happened to me before, I've had this phone as a replacement for my original one for a few months already.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nivron:
I've had it happen twice since I got my phone last October. I think its a natural issue that probably doesn't indicate a major problem unless it keeps occurring regularly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
**** happens to electronic devices; battery pull/reboot/unplug should fix 99% of the weird stuff

If it happens again, I would take it to the store to be checked
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
Hi guys, I'm planning to retrofit an android tablet into my car, like this:

[Taken from: http://www.rx8club.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7789]

It'll be in exactly the same position as the screen in the photo, except I plan to use the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (the photo is a Dell Streak 7). I've read some threads about excessive heat generated especially while using and charging the tablet. I think this'll be an even greater problem if I put it in that housing and have it under direct sunlight.

Do you guys think this tablet is a good idea for this application? Also, how does the screen fair under sunlight?

I'm also considering the HTC Flyer as an alternative, but that's a bit bulkier and the front face of the tablet isn't flat, the top and bottom parts of the bezel stick up slightly.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] orb360:
It's fairly glossy, so reflection will be an issue if the sun is at the right angle.

You can easily hook up a vent and a quiet fan if heat is going to be a serious issue, so I'd think you can work around that fairly easily.

Very cool setup :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] painter_:
The steering wheel is on the wrong side of your car. ;)

I used my 7 Plus as a GPS high on the dash, for a long trip. At night the headlights reflecting off it drove me nuts, when the sun hit it is was bad, other then that it worked well.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
It is quite literally on the 'right' side of the car..lol. That's not my car but it is what I plan to do.

Thanks for the quick replies, another question I have is regarding the GPS. I have a Nexus S and my experience with Samsung is that their GPS receiver is rather poor compared to those used by HTC. My previous Nexus One could find my location faster and track me much better than my Nexus S, which tends to lose signal when I'm under a tree..

Also, I'm open to suggestions for other possible tablets.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] orb360:
My GPS has been stellar for in-car nav and geo-caching. Locks way faster than my epic 4g ever did and I can usually get 10+ sats even in car.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
Can anyone tell me how good is the screen brightness? I've read some reviews and they say that the screen is pretty dim compared to other tablets. I'm afraid that I wont be able to see it under the sun.

I'm currently looking for some used Tab 7 Pluses on eBay, they're so rare...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aeioo:
I use my P6200 for driving navigation for a few times already.

I think the brightness is acceptable but I always have to adjust the angle to avoid reflection. I am thinking of replacing the screen protector with anti-glare one.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aperture:
i used mine 4 to 5 times already for navigation.. i suggest getting a matte screen protector.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
Thanks for all great information! So I guess screen brightness is alright, the main issue is the glossy screen. I'll definitely buy an anti-glare screen protector once I find a used galaxy tab 7 plus on ebay...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
Hi everyone, I've got another questions regarding the Tab 7 Plus. I know it doesn't use micro usb but rather a samsung connector.

Can someone please tell me how much this protrudes from the tablet when connected? I need to make sure I have enough space for it. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
I have another question: If you plug in a charger while the tablet is sleeping does the screen turn on?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] miksumortti:
Yes

Sent from my GT-P6210
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] daisun:
Could you also tell me how much the charger plug protrudes from the tablet body when connected?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] miksumortti:
About 2 cm, the connector plug itself is about 1 cm but the start of the cable isn't flexible.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] willyam111:
I have the Galaxy Tab 7+ mounted in my dash where my stock CD player was. I don't have any issues with the device overheating. I live in GA and it is usually pretty hot down here, but I do take the tablet out of the car when I am not in it.

I don't have any real issues with seeing the screen as long as the brightness is all the way up on sunny days. I think my device being lower and in the dash helps reduce the glare on the screen a lot.

I have taken it on trips of about 2-3 hours but not any longer than that. I was using GPS and streaming internet radio or listening to audiobooks the whole time and the device didn't get hot.
[HTC Rezound] red3razor:
I'm running newtoroot's Senselss V2...

I'm wondering if any ICS rom's call screen looks different from the HTC call screen? I'm not referring to the stock blue themed ICS dialer... but in an active phone call you see the HTC call screen with green Android guy, just like in SENSE.

Maybe using danutzz's de-sense tool achieves a different call screen look?
[HTC Rezound] red3razor:
I'm trying Ineffabilis 1.3 and I like the red android guy better than green. Before that I edited all 150 of my contacts' assigned images. That was took awhile. Liking Ineffabilis though. I'm at peace now :)
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
Nope, I don't think any ics can be used without the sense dialer until aosp comes out
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Xtreme Outcast's ICS ROM which is based on Newtoroot's uses the AOSP ICS dialer/contacts.
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
But once you get in the call the sense dialer appears
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Probably the closest we're going to get until a pure AOSP rom is released. Can't use the AOSP full dialer when the rom is based off of Sense (even Senseless roms).
[HTC Rezound] partizan1981:
Any ETA on AOSP yet?
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
First rule of Android Club.. Never ask for an ETA :D

You should try rezrom v1.6 i really like it pluse the rolling b for beats at the end and the old fuzzy tv that turns off when you turn your phone off I really like it
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
I will get a Sensation tomorrow after work it is a warranty exchange..has anyone else come from the MT4G, how would you compare it to the Sensation?
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
My mom has a mytouch4g... holy hell, I want to kill it with fire. Beat it with a bat, and then put it in a blender. I seriously hate the Mytouch 4G. The sensation is a Bugatti, and the MT4G is a 94 Honda Civic with no v-tec and a super huge muffler that kills all its power..
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
The biggest thing I noticed on the negative side when I switched from the MT4G to the Sensation was the rounded back of the Sensation.

You can't just lay it on your desk or a table and type on it. It wobbles all over the place. You have to hold it. The MT4G has a flat back so you could pound on it and it wouldn't wobble. Made it really easy to type while it was sitting on the table.

However....the bigger screen is really nice. It's much more vibrant too.

The first day you'll feel like you're holding a tablet because of the size difference. But you get used to that pretty quick.
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
The only thing I miss from the change is the trackpad wake and dedicated camera button
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
I had the mt4g two phones ago and I loved it... Gave it to my mom and now she loves it. You will love the sensation you missed all the good development now all we got is a bunch of noobs recooking stock rom with no real coding skill nothing to add our bring to the table...
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
you will miss battery life, dedicated camera button, development/
[HTC Sensation] tritran18518:
i had a MT4G before, and compare to Sensation: honestly, i don't feel the sensation is much superior than the MT4G.Even with dual core processor, there is not much different in term of speed. Not like you move from a Camry to a Lamborghini.Instead, you move to an Avalon ^^. The only thing different is the screen size :4.3 inches vs 3.8 inches. And i also miss AOPS roms and MIUI roms alot. MT4G have a great roms collection than Sensation. Overall, Sensation is till a good phone, but you wouldn't expect to much in it.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
Are you seriously telling somebody that there are no good custom roms for the sensation??? WTF??
[HTC Sensation] LBN1:
I still have a MT4G and a Sensation, and will switch between the 2. The Sensation has a larger and better screen, 8 MB Camera w/ 1080p Camcorder, and a likely quicker path to ICS, all pluses.

The MT4G had great build quality, dedicated buttons including camera button and slightly better cell reception. I personally think the antennas built into the rear Sensation cover is a defective design; much prefer the MT4G design.

For many other things, like battery life, speed of use with or without Sense, lack of lag, built in memory, 4g speeds, browsing, etc., the devices are very similar if not about the same. Dual core in the Sensation is nice, but on both of my devices I only OC to about 1.2 ghz and they both (with the right GB rom) have the same smoothness and similar benchmarks. Sensation is just like a slightly newer brother to the MT4G IMO.
[HTC Sensation] sunlaw2:
I miss...

Camera button.

Cm7-so much!

More responsive touch screen when typing.

That's about it.

You will like...

Better camera.

Better/larger/sharper images.

Ics roms.

OK gingerbread roms.honestly,I liked tdj's/royal knights sense 3.5 better than any on sensation,but they are good here too.

Better 3g4g connectivity its faster.

Is it worth upgrading too instead of sgs2? No.Not really.

However,my sgs2 is in the drawer,so,its a matter of preference.I'm just using this one to flash roms.

You will like the phone.but if you can return for sgs2 you will most likely enjoy that one more!
[HTC Sensation] overthinkingme:
Couldn't agree more about the battery life.

Development is on par I'd say considering the future development and official ICS coming. MIUI is going to officially support the sensation, win.

Also, camera button.
[HTC Sensation] sunlaw2:
Ummm...

Haven't seen any groundbreaking rom delivered by you.

A lot of the roms are just about the same ****,yes that's true.

But better to have too much than nothing.

There's some good roms here,no question.

But,yeah there's a lot of the same ****.

But,when will we see kingdavids creativity come to life?

Show us your genius coding skills.
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
Thanks for the input guys, I do like the idea of the Sensation getting the ICS update in March so they say...so is it just as easy to root as the MT4G? I may wait to root until after ICS comes to the phone but then again I may not?
[HTC Sensation] FiddleGoose:
I used to have a MT4G and now I'm on Sensation and I absolutely love both phones.

I was very satisfied with the myTouch only AFTER I rooted it and installed CyanogenMod, overclocked it a bit, it went very fast.

I've had the Sensation since it came out! I love this phone, really powerful, looks great, has an amazing camera and screen. You won't be disappointed.

ROOT it of course ;) stock HTC ROM sucks doodooballs.
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
haha i expected this... but dont see what's that got to do with what i said... or why you didnt say the same **** to the two other peple that said the same exact thing up under my post... and check my resume lame or threads ive created im a themer....

[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Just curious, but which devs did we have who could seriously code? I guess Roman and maybe xboarder, but who else? Both of their roms didn't catch fire around here until they had all but left.

The kernel devs don't count as lost until ics sources are out and they don't come back lol.
[HTC Sensation] sunlaw2:
Well whooooptiefuckibdooo.

Code this.lol.theme this too.

The kitchen must be closed.

I really don't give a **** kid.

Anyway...

Yeah,rooting the phone is why you're on a thread in xda so of course you will root it.lol.

Actually simpler than the my touch.

Don't take things too serious queendavid.

I'm just messing with you.

Roman, Xboarder, lee, faux, Lee drops a lil something some time, the rest are gone, and actually knew how to code and just didn't use the kitchen and put others zips in... Anyways man the screen is enough reason to upgrade... Other than that about the same as stated by others...

Don't bag on development for sensation. We have Scott nd pimp doing miui. Trip doing cm9, miui v4, nd also.
[HTC Sensation] aiwapro:
The Sensation is bigger in my hand. I don't quite like it being bigger. After playing with it for hours tonight in setting it up, my hand kind of hurts from my thumb reaching further across the screen. I guess I will get use to it though, the phone size that is.
[HTC Sensation] daewond3r:
The only thing I miss from my MT4G is the camera button. Both are solid phones, but the Sensation is definitely better.
[HTC Sensation] androph:
SENSATION

-bigger screen

-faster/better camera

-The sensation "feels" smaller...but really they are approx same size

WHAT I MISS IN MYTOUCH 4G

-better battery life

-Trackball wake(really everything about track ball)

I don't notice real difference in development.

Honestly I think all development slowed shortly after Sensation was released because of ICS release
[HTC Sensation] tritran18518:
sorry if this is off topic , i think there is problem with HTC design language. Because both mytouch 4G and sensation have crackling noise issue. For MT4G, it's is the physical buttons on front, and sensation is the back cover. :mad: HTC phone might feel good at first time but later on, such small issues like that is really annoying.
[HTC Sensation] vinamilk:
Oh, mine too !

Hold it and use 2 fingers press the sreen and back cover at right bottom will makes cracking noise.

So I applied a small foam that sticks inside back cover --> feel better now !
[HTC Sensation] nba1341:
Not sure why everyone is tripping on battery life? Stock sensation battery life does blow but once you change to an anker battery no more overheat and useless battery drain.

My sensation lasts a lot longer than my mt4g's battery ever did.
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:
Mine too.
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
Anker battery?
[HTC Sensation] aiwapro:
I too am just coming to a Sensation from the MyTouch 4G (MT4G), also under a warranty exchange. I have had the Sensation for two days, and it's ok. I felt like the MT4G was the perfect size, and the Sensation is noticeable larger in hard, especially when trying to use it with one hand. With two hands, like when typing something, it's a little slippery in hand. The MT4G had a nice almost rubbery feel, and the Sensation, not so much.

I may keep it, but I'm not sure. I don't want to hijack, but I'm thinking of getting an Amaze or Galaxy S II? Any recommendations? If I sell the Sensation, and I can get either phone for about the same price that I sale the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] :
My personal opinion, I have all those, including GNP and I keep coming back to Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] xdviper:
The sensation is way better. I came from the MT4G as well, I've been waiting for this phone ever since the pyramid rumors. The MT4G was alright but the speaker grill was ugly as **** though. Battery life? The same as Sensation. The MT4G was quick though, even with the single core it was perfect. Just the design was horrible.
[HTC Sensation] countess_cutlass:
Just bought a Sensation XE, coming from the Mytouch 4g. I really thought I would miss the Mytouch more than I do -- but I don't. The Sensation is a worthy successor, imho.

*Pros*

+ Higher screen resolution which displays more vivid colors

+ Faster, 8 megapixel camera a serious improvement

+ Faster, smoother phone experience because of 1.5GHz dual core

*Cons*

+ I *really* miss trackpad wake

+ Speaker does not seem as good as Mytouch 4g (I've had a few people tell me that they were having trouble hearing me during calls, which never happened with the Mytouch 4g).

I feel like the battery life is about the same (?), but I haven't really noticed one way or the other. Since I like Sense based roms over Miui and CM7/9 roms, I'm pretty satisfied with the development I can see. YMMV, though.
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
Ok so Ive have had the Sensation for a few days now and my thumb keeps looking for the optical pad and the power button is on the opposite side on top compared to the mytouch lol, i am used to it now however...

So far its a good phone of course i rooted it the next day after i told myself I would not for a little while but once you try root its hard to go back.... it is much larger then the mytouch like yall said i have medium to large hands so no biggie
[HTC Sensation] marseillesw:
Coming from the mt4g, I too miss the trackpad, mostly the ability to move the cursor in between letters in the messaging app, and of course trackpad wake. But those are minor inconveniences compared to the awesomeness of this phone. The size is perfect for me since I have rather large hands. The display is beautifully vivid, and the speed and fluidness of the browser is a step up. Im happy with this device. Rooted, supercid, and running ARHD 4.03 sense 3.6..but about to flash trips sense 4.0
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Wait, what? The battery life sucks? You're ****ting me right? :'(
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
I don't know if I agreed with everyone one the battery life, it seems fine to me better then the MT4G was...but with a screen bigger then 4" ya I think its expected to have a little drain...beside I hear ppl buying Anker batteries to get a few more hours throughout the day

I been on the battery for 6 hrs and I still got 80% juice left thats with moderate useage....
[HTC Sensation] urmothersluvr:
The battery life does suck but its only a 1520mah battery. But its all good since I bought a 1900mah anker battery. Best $20 spent

Well I finally figured out what I was doing wrong just a little while ago and finally got these two animations to work. I would post pic's of what they look like but the limitations are preventing me from doing so, (sorry). Anyways, hope you guys like them! :)

This is optimized for the HTC EVO 4g, but can easily be modified for other phone models.

EDIT: Was bored as hell the other day, so I decided to create a "do a barrel roll" boot animation. Included are 2 audio files, one with a 5 second pause because the animation lags a little for me at the beginning, and one without the lag.

And if you like them/use them, please hit the thank button. It will encourage me to keep uploading whatever I do for you all, (even if making a boot animation is pretty easy, I'd still appreciate it..).

I'm thinking of creating a case that looks like an ice cream sandwich. It would be made of rubberised plastic with an ice cream sandwich printed onto the entire case (not just the back). I came up with this idea since, as a true Android devotee, I was looking for such a case myself but found none. The case would first come out for the Galaxy Nexus followed by the next most popular and recent phones on the market. So I am wondering if this is something you would like to have.

Hello,

I know there seems to be some sort of issue with Tegra 2 chipsets not decoding video properly but I read that with the right codec and video players you can play 720p high profile MKVs/MP4s, how can I do that?

Also, does it matter what ROM I'm on? Like CM7 vs Stock MotoBlur? I'm on CM7 and I tried a few video apps and most face some sort of problem with 720p videos stuttering and whatnot.

Thanks.
