[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] g2uzer:
well said:D

i just switch from a g2x, they all complain on how lg is leaving them out on the ics update. had a g2,mt3gs, heck i even had a cliq just to name a few, and a lot of people on those forums complain on the manufactures/carriers is leaving them out from updates. I remember reading this "DONT GET A PHONE HOPING YOU WILL GET THE NEWEST UPDATES< GET A PHONE THAT YOUR HAPPY ON WHAT IT HAS" to me that is so true and in my opinon htc has some of the best phones, and if we dont get the update, so what, i am very happy with this phone the way it is :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
There only 200 bucks brand new from T-Mo. $50 on contract. I reported my phone stollen, got a G2 for 50 :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
So why would you get a g2? Still confused by this

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
what we should do is email them everyday for ics update. Or start an online petition. Same thing we did for source code. Like I said, big corporations need to be bullied into doing right by their customers.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Listen, the very fact that HTC is announcing updates in waves is better than before which was pretty much pray for an update and then magically it would appear without an announcement. Again, the Sensation announcement was for the Global ones and those are easy to do since they're mostly 1 device on multiple carriers. The other announcement was for Verizon phones. Verizon Has ALWAYS been quick in updating. No word has been released for the other 3 carriers at all. I'm not saying we will definitely get the update but it is way too early to worry about not getting ICS. It hasn't really been out that long. I say let's wait til the end of March and see where we are at. To be honest there has only been 1 HTC device's ICS leaked. No others just the Sensation. Now if we waited like we did for the official myTouch 3G Slide Froyo release then that would be a cause for concern. Me if no official ICS comes for us I would be happy with Sense 3.6 or 4.0 as it addresses my main complaint about sense... The dock.

------------------CONFIRMING-------------------

T-Mobile DOES NOT offer the Sensation 4G as a replacement for insurance claims.

Just called and its a no. :(

Just my spare change.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ryaninc:
HTC has been really on top of updates lately. Just because this phone isn't on the list yet doesn't worry me. I'm pretty confident it will get an official update sooner or later.

But most of us here don't really care about official updates. That's the biggest reason for me to root my phones, honestly, to be able to get updates faster. And as far as hacking goes, HTC devices are far easier than Samsung. You'll never catch me using a Samsung, not even the Galaxy Nexus. They just have such a horrible track record of lies, failed updates, broken hardware waiting months for a fix, and really cheap, plasticy build quality.

So, yes, I'll be sticking with the MT4GS for a while. I moved from a G2 like many of you, and I don't regret it at all, not even if an official ICS update is a long way off.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonnycat26:
I think part of the reason nothing's been announced is that the MT4GS is, essentially, a botique phone. It's made for one carrier, and that one carrier is (let's be honest) struggling a bit. If there's going to be an upgrade to ICS, I'd wager that T-Mobile is going to have to foot part of the bill as far as things like certification and carrier testing go.

HTC can't even get the last OTA sorted out in a timely manner, so I wouldn't expect an ICS upgrade anytime soon. On the other hand, they did (eventually) do right with the MT3GS, so who knows.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
Well with all the G2 people jumping ship, this device should get a boom. Still mad at HTC :T
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Limewirelord:
I don't see why you guys are so worried. Even the mT3G (not slide) got an update to 2.2.1 in the very end and no one was expecting at all. We *WILL* get an ICS update; it's just a matter of when.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ohgami_Ichiro:
I know HTC hasn't announced any US carriers except Verizon. (Sensation excluded as it's just a soup sandwich of the global one). I keep saying it's too early to worry. If they announce the T-Mobile phones and myTouch 4G Slide isn't on there then it's time to worry.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] polarbearmc:
i got this phone because of an optional replacement for my G2 that got stolen. they gave me the choice of mytouch4g slide, a g2x (i've read that it's been plagued with too many problems) and a freakin sidekick hahaha. so of course i went with the mytouch4g slide
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
With the way tbalden is leading the charge on ICS - by the time they get around to it we'll long since have had a much better product then they could hope bring to market.

Sorry HTC - thanks for playing, try again. XDA for the win.

The only thing we need them for is an ICS kernel (source) - otherwise we'll do the best we can on gingerbread kernel source (again, tbalden is making that work out pretty well).

Once they finally released the gingerbread kernel source we had all the parts we needed to make our own way - until then we were kinda stuck on what we could and couldn't do.

They make a phenominal piece of hardware, i'll definitely buy another (considering a third doubleshot, actually, but my new phone way in the future will be an htc product) so no slight against them, but we'll happily make our own software. As long as they give us kernel sources i'll be a loyal customer.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ohgami_Ichiro:
I agree. We REALLY need the Kernel Source for the Sensation if we don't get ICS. It can then be ported over to ours with little effort. That's how we did it for our sense port for the myTouch 3G Slide. Made a kernel bump using the Marvel's (could have been the Icon though all 3 and the Legend are pretty much the same phone) kernel as they were mostly identical. A nice 3.0 kernel will be nice to have :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Corbanski:
As great as this phone is I still miss the G2. I'm perfectly fine with the ICS roms here. They are suported to an extent manufacturers could only dream of.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
yeah, that would be really cool. and it will happen just after the official sensation rom is out, they will release the source as well, obliged by gpl license. (i know you know, just mentioned). Pushing the Doubleshot Board files could work out really nice, but it won't be a piece of cake im guessing, some include and core conflicts might make the path rocky :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
But you and Blue can do it :D You two (and Undead) make this phone worth keeping. I would have switched a long time ago.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ohgami_Ichiro:
True, if there is any issues I'm sure I can try to convince Nbetcher to give a hand. He did great work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexmtakacs:
Okay, The Note runs N64 games FLAWLESSLY.

From what I understand, fancy controllers like ps3 sixaxis and wiimote/nunchuk won't work with stock galaxy roms because of some low level bluetooth incompatibility. You'd have to wait until CM9 or similar comes out.

So, I'm looking for the best bluetooth gamepad to use with N64oid and BluezIME if required. BluezIME has official support for a few, such as Zeemote, PhoneJoy, and iControlPad. The only one out of those that has an analog stick is the Zeemote, and it only has 4 additional buttons.

For a good N64 controller, it needs an analog stick, 6 buttons (A,B,L,R,Z,START), and another analog stick or a D-pad for the C-buttons. Something like the ps3 controller would be perfect: 2 analog sticks, 2-4 trigger buttons, start button, and 2-4 regular buttons.

Is there one with the needed buttons that is compatible?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phillyrican:
Nice I didn't know the note could do this where did you get the emulator and games at?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] orangekid:
probably can't post that here, but Google will get it for you in about one second.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexmtakacs:
Just google N64oid and Bluez IME(the bluetooth bridge). Can't help you with roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexmtakacs:
Does anyone know?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] scheel78:
Im using the sixaxis controller with the stock rooted rom. The wii remote will not work thou.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexmtakacs:
So the sixaxis does work with N64oid? Can you comment on the performance and button mapping? Can you map the C buttons to the right analog stick?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] scheel78:
I havent used n64oid. Ive have used snesoid and nesoid with the sixaxis controller and used button mapping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Err0xx:
Alex, you WANT "Datel Retro Wireless Gamepad" - can get it at:

http://us.codejunkies.com/Products/Wii-Wireless-Retro-Controller__EF000622.aspx

Been using it with PlayStation emulators, n64oid, everything. Full botton mapping works great and easily connects. Worked GREAT with my Atrix and now my Note. Search for YouTube videos of it being used- arguably the most popular wireless Android gamepad. Highly recommended.

Hope that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Err0xx:
Oh, and there are 4 shoulder buttons on the Datel, kinda hard to see from the pics.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phillyrican:
damn its out of stock :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Err0xx:
Its a popular controller. Should be on ebay somewhere too. They get pretty regular stock, so might wanna call and see if hey have a heads up as to when more might be getting in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phillyrican:
ebay has one!!!!!!!!!!!http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NINTENDO-...ash=item5647fe72cb........................for 94 bucks :( lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alexmtakacs:
That costs pretty much the same as a PS3 controller. Might as well get a brand name sixaxis/dualshock.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] under999:
On and off for the past 2 weeks I have had a grey data bars? What do they mean? How can I keep them blue? I am running stock rooted leaked 4.0.4 update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
It means that your phone doesn't have a connection to the Google servers, and most likely you don't have data at all. I would return to stock and see if it still happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] under999:
Is that my only option? I like 4.0.4 update and radios.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Maybe try reflashing the 4.0.4 radios first.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dxtra:
Waste
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Sometimes it's good to stay away of keyboard. Especially when you have no clue on what you are talking about.

Grey data bars means that you're not signed in to Google servers at all, not just to Google Talk service.

What if in past two weeks he have saved 50 new contacts and created 100 calendar events? It's ok now, but if he will flash new ROM all these contacts/calendar events will go missing as they never reached Google backup servers...

So, there's nothing to worry about, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StuartTheFish:
So how can you make it stay connected? More importantly, how can a ROM change cause it to drop connection to google servers, and how could it be repaired?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
You don't know what you are talking about. So let me start off by saying that I don't have Google Talk installed yet my bars are still blue. The bars will only blue if you are signed into a Google account and are connected to the Google servers. If you'r phone ever tries to ping the Google servers and cannot the bars will turn grey meaning you still have data but you cannot access Google services.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akanatrix:
I can tell you that when I have grey bars, everything related to Google stops working, and resumes working when blue data bars return. The Market, Reader, Gmail, YouTube, Listen, Maps, Talk, etc all stop working while browser and other web accessing apps are just fine. So to me, it appears Google routes there traffic differently because of authentication than other apps on the phone. So I would say it is safe to say, grey bars means no Google services.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
This is all a service thing. What you are probably experiencing is your phones service cutting out and therefor you are losing connection to the internet (Including the Google services) then when you get internet back your bars are gray until your phone can confirm it is connected to Google services then once it gets confirmation your bars turn blue.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ----------

Well all Google services go over your network then go straight to Google's servers so if you cannot access Google servers you cannot access the apps that require access to Google servers. Just like if Facebook was down I would not be able to access it on my phone but everything else would still work fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StuartTheFish:
It's not my phone signal in my case, it's actually my wifi icon that keeps going grey even though it's full signal strength and there's nothing wrong with the router or broadband service. It's the ROM change that caused the issue since restoring a previous backup restores service. It's intermittent, sometimes it'll work and other times the icon goes grey. Just wondering how it could happen and how it can be fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
*SMH*. You win. I will now bow down to your all knowing wisdom.

---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------

What ROM are you having issues on? This may be a stupid question but if you have a CDMA GNexus is it possible that you are using a GSM ROM or vice versa?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StuartTheFish:
I'm actually using a HTC sensation but saw this thread on tapatalk so thought I'd ask since the issue isn't device specific, it could happen on anything.

Basically I'm using an ics ROM on it which worked fine, but the most recent version is causing me to have intermittent grey wifi icon and loss of internet connection as a result. Just wondering what could be done to repair it instead of just reverting to the previous version, so thought I'd ask.

I remain signed out of Google Talk most of the time, and the bars are still blue, so the color of them has nothing to do with GTalk, as others have said, and it only deals with being connected to Google itself for the other services your phone uses.

I understand all that, but why would some ROMs have difficulty staying connected to Google's services? And how can it be fixed?

I have the same problem (data bars turning grey) on my Galaxy Nexus [GSM 4.0.2 stock Yakju] when I switch from work wifi to home wifi (it doesn't turn grey when I go from home wifi to work wifi though)

Usually a reset will do (simply turn it off and on again).

I've tried everything from airplane mode off and on ; static IP (for both work and home) ; hard reset etc.. Only turning it off and on works.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dxtra:
That's a data issue your rom or phone are having. I'll suggest going back to stock fw or replace the phone. BTW from my experience I think the phone has an antenna issue I'm getting extremely low reception and from what I'm hearing 4.0.4 has better reception.

Once you have set up a Google account it should always try to connect to the Google server whenever there is internet access. I'm not sure if it still does this if you haven't registered a Google account.

I am rooted, but completely stock. I get the grey wi-fi and cell bars all the time. When this happens, I loose all data connections (not just access to Google Services). The only way to fix it is to go into airplane mode, then back out. Fixes it right away.

Would really like to know if there is a fix for this because it is annoying. Truly annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
My recent problem with grey bars has basically revealed exactly what grey vs blue bars mean.

Grey bars mean that you have lost connection to Google's Messenger Service (C2DM). C2DM affects things such as push notifications as well as gTalk.

C2DM does not affect things like Android Market, GMail, Calendar and other Google services. The reason why people often claim that grey bars mean no Google app connections is simply because if you have problems with your Google Account connection, then you will also have problems with C2DM.

But reality is that connection bars are blue only when you have connection to Google Messaging Service and C2DM and grey only when that is not the case.

You can have grey bars and still have auto sync, Calendar, GMail, Android Market and other Google-related apps working without problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SteveD01:
Picked up my Note on Sunday from Best Buy. Yesterday afternoon I started having problems with S-pen causing inadvertent actions without me touching the screen. At first I thought maybe I touched the screen without realizing it, but at this point I can hold the pen 1/4 inch or more away from the screen and it still occasionally clicks the screen (or draws a line in S Note). Not constant, but often enough to be easily demonstrated.

I'm planning to exchange it but wondered if anyone else is having this issue or knows of a fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SteveD01:
Digitizer performance continued to deteriorate over the next few hours and using the S-pen became nearly impossible. It was clicking everything it came close to. Did a factory reset to clear any software issues but the problem persisted.

Best Buy staff was great about exchanging the phone... and I got the last blue Note they had in stock. I was surprised they still had their one white Note available; no one had bought a white Note at that store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] macwilson:
Yeah I noticed that on mine. It lasted a short time but was pretty bad.

This is rather unbelievable as it's a Wacom digitizer not some Samsung hack, in spite of the S-pen moniker.

I imagine it's possible Wacom didn't want their name associated with it just because of something like this. I hope not at least :o

Anyway, I never noticed this with the international version, and I had one for a while.

Unacceptable if it would occur often.

update: It just occurred to me that this may be a pen issue. It's an ultra small pen, and this issue might not happen with a regular Wacom pen.

I will keep an eye out for this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dadamaax:

I'm experiencing the same issue with my galaxy note, but not just with the S pen.
