Guess it's going back to amazon.

Not sure if this was posted or not. But if this comes out in the future with an unlocked bootloader is it likely we can install full ubuntu on our tablets?

I know you can install ubuntu now but it is slow, this is designed specifically for android phones/tabs.

A little late to the party buddy. Already a thread started on it. You should add this engadget to that thread. The other person had link to Ubuntu website talking about it.

[HTC Sensation] SensationNation:
Hello there everyone. I've had my HTC Sensation since September and so far it has been a very enjoyable experience, with only one abnormal reset. However, in the past two days, some weird stuff has happened.

Every once in a while, I see the stock lockscreen flicker over my current screen (Even in an app). It is currently disabled by WidgetLocker as well.

The first day I had installed SweeterHome 2, StatusBar +, and also the application Faster Drawer. The first reset happened as I went to open Faster Drawer (Not for the first time, however). It then rebooted, but things seemed to work fine. Also, the app Profile Scheduler was no longer able to change the screen brightness when I clicked on a profile, just the other settings. I had to go into Android settings to do it manually. (There I found the slider down to 0 as I wanted it, and when I touched it, the screen brightness lowered to where it was supposed to be)

The second reset happened today and was even weirder. I was looking through my Minimal Reader widget when I was interrupted by the white and green HTC boot logo, and the phone took a few minutes to reset. When it came to, all of my widgets were gone, and replaced by "Tap to restore" squares (On both WidgetLocker and SweeterHome 2)

I really have no clue what is going on, though I am very disappointed by the reboots, especially for losing the widgets (Basically my entire homescreen was made of them, it will take a long time to restore). The only thing I messed with was the Accessibility applications; I had to check the one for StatusBar + and I clicked the one for WidgetSoid Notifications, but then disabled it. (Which by the way, the WidgetSoid notification toggles no longer work until I use the system toggle for data, then I can start using them)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using a stock, unrooted HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile, running 2.3.4, and it had that firmware update by T-Mobile a few months ago.
[HTC Sensation] Alienator9191:
the most ugly thing is i saw it with another sensation user in my famely to before i bought my phone. it got sended away by warrenty got back prob solved but more arised it began also after couple months. mine started doing it i rooted/s-off mine and started testing roms wich one feld like i wanted to use. because of quick changing i cound watch that after an rom from here the prob got solved so here are my suggestions:

1 send it and maybe get a worse phone back(telling from experience)

2 root/s-off test some roms and away goes problem
[HTC Sensation] SensationNation:
The issue just became worse. This time, without a reset, my WidgetLocker widgets were lost again, and replaced by the "Tap to restore" dialog. I was playing music at the time with the screen off (no other apps running), and it was not interrupted. When I went to unlock the phone, they were gone.
[HTC Sensation] SensationNation:
Any thoughts? This seems like a pretty serious issue to me. I'd like to stay stock since I don't have the money to replace the phone if something were to go wrong.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Try removin the apps and see if that helps,you seem to have alot on there that removes or modifies functionality
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hausman:
I've said it before...these things are awesome. A couple of egrip strips on the side and a large pad on the back and I no longer feel like the Note is ready to jump out of my hands. It is easier to pick up without feeling like you're going to drop it, too.

Not an employee or paid endorsement...I just love these things. They're also called gecko strips.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Earthdog:
Which one did you buy?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hausman:
I had to look it up. I had these awhile back:

http://geckostrips.com/shop#ecwid:category=411410&mode=category&offset=0&sort=normal

SKU910290- 14pcs strips 4.5x .18 (3/16) clear

SKU910701 - 5 pcs black for 3 devices

Both under "Universal Kits". I had to cut the clear strips short maybe 3/4" so they fit below the power button and volume rocker, and then I stuck the huge black pad right under the words "Galaxy Note" on the back cover. The shorter strips might be better, but the long ones were what I had at home.

The strips on the side won't last long - I had them on my tablet and they start to collect lint and peel after awhile, but the Note feels great in the hand and I'm no longer afraid to let someone else hold it for fear they will drop it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LiquidArrogance:
I love them too props to whoever it was o. Here that recommended them me. I got the 12 piece black kit but the 5 piece looks like it'd work well to. Thair website is a little janky but it has detailed measurements for a lot of the kits.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
They also have alot of clearance sales. The fit does not have to be perfect to do a great job. I got the iphone set on sale for $4 and a bunch of grab bag ones- 10 for $5. They do a great job and can be cut to fit very easily.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hausman:
Yep - I gave up on the ones on the sides since they started to peel after a couple of days, so I've put strips on the back near each edge. It's not quite as good as having the super-grippy sides, but it seems OK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chillcentral:
Gecko Strips available in UK?

I have a HTC ONE Mini 2 is really nice but it is a bit slippery. I have been looking for something like this for a few weeks now and I'd like to know if I can get some from a supplier in the UK - any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willanhanyard:
Wondering how much people have used their Note in these first few days. Tell us how much cell data and if you have it, wifi.

I have used 500mb on cell and 1GB on wifi in 3 days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] edaley:
how are you keeping track?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
After the first day I had mine, myAT&T app showed I had used 1.5GB, but then the next day the app said it couldn't report my data until next billing cycle because of recent changes to my data plan (going to LTE I guess). I've only used LTE, it's way faster than any wifi I'd be on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madeSICC:
I've used 32mb data, 50 mb wifi. Got mine on Monday
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sevker:
I thought the same thing about it being faster than my WiFi till I got throttled today for hitting 2,048mb in just 3 days. Now I'm getting speeds in the .15mbps range.

I guess it is kind of my fault though for not using WiFi when I should, but the LTE is way faster than my WiFi. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
No throttling here so far, I assume I've gone over 2GB by now since I've had the phone since Friday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willanhanyard:
Can't you change the APN to not be throttled?

Also you can check usage on att website or I just got a widget.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Maroon Mushroom:
11.6 gb. Lots of Netlflix.

Also if you're throttled and you want to get unthrottled, pm me. I have something I want to test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] waltah!:
Onavo seems to read data usage pretty well and updates instantly. There are 3 different widgets that track different things which is handy. You would certainly get throttled each month as usage at that pace would put you around 20gb in a month. It even breaks it down by which apps are using data such as Netflix, Facebook etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpitch2415:

[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
After reading this about ubuntu as a replacement for webtop it got me thinking about other alternatives or "mods". both ubuntu and android are open source obviously. but is there a way to get xda developers to develop a customized webtop replacement? i know you can install ubuntu from the market and there are mods to replace and/or dualboot android with backtrack and ubuntu but what about as a stand-alone app that can be activated when plugged into a dock like webtop.

this would be a really cool project for someone with the skills to do so. Canonical has already shown it is possible. how about we get some developers to release something of their own. maybe other custom made linux distros customized specifically to activate like webtop does. or just a completely obtimized webtop like we have been doing to android for years.

[General Questions and Answers] frosty68:
Hi.

My 13 year old son has my old galaxy spica, I can't remember which ROM is on it, but it does have CM 2.5.1.0 recovery.

He's currently in a lot of trouble, and I'm hoping the contents of his phone (texts) might shed some extra light on the situation, but it's currently locked, and he's being unhelpful, I believe with a SIM card lock asking for a PIN rather than an unlock pattern.

I was hoping repeated wrong guesses would force PUK lock, then I'd contact the network for a key (phone is in my name, I pay the bill) but I just get a 30 second delay after 5 attempts.

So, the obvious question, how do I bypass the lock, is it even possible without wiping the data on the phone?

Alternatively, can I just access the data, as I do have recovery on the device?

Thanks

edit - taking the SIM out still has the phone showing the "Enter Password to Unlock" screen
[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
I think there's no way around that...the only way I know how to take the screen lock off is to do a hard reset but then everything off the phone will be gone...I dont think you can get around the screen lock AND keep the contents in tact, but I could be wrong...
[General Questions and Answers] frosty68:
Thanks - his brother just gave me the code :)

I suppose the follow on question - any way to lock someone out of the settings menu?

Ok I am new to this all. so I am going to go ahead and say that do not get mad if I do not understand something.

anyhow, I am wanting to watch hulu.com on my asus tf101. the builder number is 8.6.5.13.the android version is 3.2.1

I have heard people say to root it, but I am unsure how to do it. I tried a couple of sites, but they seemed old and I would find myself half way through with a link not working.

so all I have is what came on it. I just purchased it today. if you know what will make it work best to watch hulu.com thank you so much. I'll be watching this thread so please ask away if you need any more information.

also I do not paying for anything as long as it works. hence I purchased hulu plus. BUT it did not carry all the shows like it does online.

thank you,

Do the allow unknown apps permission first.

Just click on apk and it will load

Once you are rooted Do the following

go to market get superuser load

go to market get OTA rootkeeper then load

If you are strugglng with this I recommend you do not go any further (ie roms kernels)

I'am almost sure razorclaw will not work because it is based on 8.6.5.19.

It checks the version and also needs (fixed) asus-backup which was delivered with 8.6.5.19.

You can try it, but it will fail.

I was wondering how do you go around to surf the internet on your big screen tv and also use an external usb mouse/keyboard?

I would need a "Micro USB Host Mode Cable" to hook the mouse/keyboard to the phone AND I also have to use a "MHL Adapter Micro USB To HDMI Converter" to see the phone in the tv and both use the one and only usb micro from the phone... Is anyone using a usb hub with usb micro to usb micro connections? Has anyone tried to use a regular usb hub to connect more than one usb device? Do you need to be rooted to do this?

I guess one option is to find a bluetooth keyboard/mouse but that seems to be expensive...

Thanks!

Is there a list anywhere as far as which bluetooth mouse/keyboard works fine? I hate to go that route since I will be using the phone this way at both home and work.

Anyway, if you can point me out to where there is a list I will appreciate it...

Whats the deal with company's like Otterbox, RearthUSA, SGP Store and not even attempting to make cases for this phone. It's a bit aggravating looking at their selection of cases for the AT&T version of our phone.

I have used Ringke and SGP cases on almost every phone I have owned recently and would really like to have another one.

It may be because GSM is a lot more popular (US and abroad) rather than CDMA. Most of these case manufacturers are also based in Europe and such, so they have access to those phones first... At least that's what the little voice in my head tells me.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
It all comes down to money. Engineering a new case and having molds made is extremely expensive, plus you have other manufacturing costs as well. If a company doesn't think they can sell enough cases to make a profit, they aren't going to make cases for that phone. Obviously several if the case manufacturers have decided the money just isn't there with the E4GT, so they aren't making cases for it.
