Anyone have any idea on fixing the problem?

Hey guys! I found a neat trick And I think a lot of you will like it.

All you need is a DVD case and some string

Its to make your own tablet stand. I made it 2 days ago, and it makes me enjoy the a100 even more. I even used i t as an alarm clock on my night stand!

http://lifehacker.com/5874764/turn-a-dvd-case-into-a-tablet-stand

If you wanna know how to use it as an alarm clock, just press the clock app, then press the clock again and it dims the screen a lot....pretty neat!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] toyface:
Nice find, I actually made myself a stand out of Lego I had lying around from my younger days that works really quite nicely, my case with stand kind of defeats the object though.

Nice for when I'm cooking though to have music at my disposal!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] dharr18:
I bought a $3 business card holder at Office Depot that does the trick very nicely. I use it for my phone or tablet.

Unfortunately they raised the price to $5.29.

On of the top battery eater app - Google+

I've just found that Google+ app was eating most of my phone's battery.

Currently I have FB21 rooted stock rom on my phone and I found that Google+ was the most heavy battery using app whenever the instant upload option is turned on.

Whenever you install the current stock rom (rooted or not), by default, Google+ instant upload option is turned on. So, if you take any pictures or video, Google+ will try to upload all of your pictures and videos in the background.

If you are in the area where the signal is good, the uploading would be finished really quick but you're in the bad reception area, then this process will use most of your battery.

Be ware of this app and you need to check this option is turned on.

How-to enable or disable google+ instant upload:

1. Open Google+

2. Click menu and select settings

3. From Photo settings, check or un-check the 'Turn on Instant Upload'

Depending on your preference, you may keep this option turned on, be sure that you're in good reception area :)

To avoid battery drain, you may use the batch and bulk 'instant upload' option when your phone is plugged in AC outlet or USB port.

1. Open Google+

2. Click menu and select settings

3. Click on 'Upload now'

I hope this information may extend your battery life a little or more.

Thanks for reading!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] acme64:
i thought this was rather obvious. Any app that has some type of background monitoring/running functions is going to run your battery down. Disable all that superfluous crap, disable any auto update checking or notification checking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
G+ has been a known thing for awhile. Sadly it used to not be as bad when it was first released but it has gotten worse over time. I didn't run it for long on the ICS builds (only cause I didn't run ICS very long) but from what I saw it looked like it was working better there (ie took less battery life)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rayandreas:
a, bro...I appreciate you posting this. Sometimes we need to be reminded of stuff like this. Im glad you were thinking of others. Keep up the good work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmoch2:
I believe there is an option to only upload when connected to wifi. This really helps to minimize upload times and allows you to keep this feature.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
It did the same thing on the nexus with ICS. the other battery drainer was Maps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I have been deleting or freezing Google+ and Maps on both phones for a while now. Google+ is especially brutal on Nexus ICS ROMs so it may be the same on our ICS ROMs as well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Do you mean 'location history' in Google maps?

If you mean location history, I see that location history is disabled by default (stock rom).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Yes, you are right. Thanks for clarification.

There are two options under 'Turn on Instant Upload'.

- Over Wi-Fi or mobile network

- Over Wi-Fi only

By default over Wi-Fi only is turned on.

I would suggest u to buy HTC Incredible S.:p
[General Questions and Answers] GerbenEe:
If i were you I'd wait a little while..

This April HTC will launch 3 new phone's from their One-serie.

meaning those phones will cost a fortune everyone buying the older HTC models will lower in price.

Also the galaxy sIII will launch soon ( no specific date ) meaning the same as with HTC older models will lower in price.

As for now i would go for incredible.

I'm so surprised no one is making these. It was a must have for my TF101. Now that I have the TF201, It feels naked and vulnerable.

I hope this gets made by someone soon. Like I said, it feels naked without the rubber skin protection.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Expect it for the new Transformer Pads, not going to see many more accessories for the old discontinued Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
Stop spreading misinformation, the Prime is not discontinued.

The new Transformer tablets consist of a budget model designed to replace the original Transformer (and with reduced specs & features to match) and a more expensive "premium" tablet with a higher res display and a price to match. The Prime will continue to be the "mainstream" model for at least the next year.

The main reason there are so few accessories for the Prime, is that people don't know if it will sell well so they don't bother pre-making accessories like they do for the iPad. If you follow the release of the Xoom of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 you will see that in the first few months 3rd party accessories for those specific tablets were also very sparse.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Take for instance, the Transleeve...

This product was discontinued as of Friday, February 24, 2012. Call for availability.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
The Transleeve was garbage. It has an 80% failure rate, as in: it fell apart in people's hands during normal usage. Also it has the unfortunately tendency to physically damage every Tablet it was used with.

Hopefully Asus will release an updated version that fixes these problems.

However that doesn't mean that the Transformer Prime tablet has been discontinued. There is no evidence and until you provide me a link to Asus explicitly stating that the tablet is disco'ed stop spreading misinformation.

Incidentally, the TP300 and TP700 both use identical mounting ports to the TF Prime, so any future versions of screen protectors like the Transleeve should be backwards compatible with the Prime since all tablets have the same size screen. Perhaps they discontinued the Transleeve because they have a better accessory set to be released with these new additions to the Transformer Pad line.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
This is what I want.

A little thinner mind you, but a silicone case is my desire.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Thunder.Lion:
Sighz, I used to have a very nice case for my samsung galaxy s2. Silicone inside, hard case outside. It was totally AWESOME! See this ->

ebay.com.sg/itm/Black-Orange-Silicone-Combo-Case-Cover-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-I9100-/190612983403?pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2c616b4e6b

It looks cool and doesn't scratch your phone at all!

Some are hard cover inside, and silicone outside - i had them for my iphone but it scratched my iphone! See this -> ebay.com.sg/itm/Hard-Case-w-Soft-Skin-Rubber-Silicone-Cover-iPhone-3G-3GS-Black-Orange-/140680538736?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20c136aa70

Thus I'm hesitant about getting a gumdrop case for my prime, because the hardcase is on the inside while the silicone is outside.

CAN SOMEONE MAKE THE FIRST ONE FOR THE TRANSFORMER PRIME??!! DON'T MIND PAYING MORE FOR IT! HAHAHA
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] phoneturf:
I too want a TPU case for my Prime and am disappointed one has not been released yet. I have seen the androidtablet thread gauging interest in a silicone case, and I might buy one of these for use in rugged conditions, but it appears they would be thick and I want a thin one for daily use and much prefer tpu to thick rubbery silicone.

I currently have the next best thing to a tpu case and that is the roocase dual view leather case. It is two pieces - one is a sleeve that protects the back, sides, and bezel like a silicone or tpu case would. The other part is a folding case that attaches to the sleeve with velcro and will allow it to stand in portrait or landscape and at various angles. I don't use that part much, though, since I prefer cheap, sturdy universal tablet stands (about $6 on ebay) and have them at work and home, so don't need to carry the external part of the roocase.

With the roocase sleeve and a screen protector, the thing is well protected and I can throw it in my (large) lunchbox or a pocket (in a scottevest vest or jacket - yes I am a _real_ nerd and own these) and not worry about dropping or scratching it. The leather of the roocase sleeve is thicker than a tpu or thin silicone case would be, although it looks like it is smaller than a thick silicone case such as the guy on androidtablets is proposing.

It is a pita that the leather of the roocase sleeve protrudes more than it needs to and makes the power button hard to reach. Plus it makes the Prime almost an inch larger in both height and width and almost doubles the thickness. So, yes, I really want a tpu case like everyone else but the roocase sleeve is the only substitute there is for now.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
SGR is a class better device. It's like to compare BMW and VW. As a former HTC IS user I must discourage you from buying this handset. Although development base for SGR is still not equally impressive as for HTC phones i would definitely choose it. Single core is an obsolete solution now.

[HTC Incredible S] bigeyes0x0:
I came from the I9003, and I am pleased with the development of IncS, the Desire S might have more development. Samsung S+ and R both have the same level of development as the I9003.

Other impressions are: the sound quality of the earpiece of the IncS is not so good compared to the I9003. Music playback using headphone from the IncS is virtually unlistenable to me, the quality is too f***ed up for me, even worse than the I9003 which is not so good by my standard. Although this is kinda biased considering my audio setup on my PC is about a grand and my headphone setup is around 600$. Otherwise I'm more pleased with HTC firmwares and AOSP development here compared to Samsung.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
whats wrong with your current phone? Your "upgrade" path seems to be a step sideways.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
None, if I got a new phone on a budget, Id get a Sensation or Galaxy s II, the prices will really drop as the new phones are released in the next few months. They both have great developer support, and are dual core

Both those Samsungs dont have great developer support, and the HTC's mentioned are not cutting edge tech.. just my two cents :)
[HTC Incredible S] bigeyes0x0:
When I upgraded it was a mere 25$ spent, but yes now that you mentioned it, it is kinda a sidegrade that you only should do if you can do it cheap or you are fed up with the development of the I9003, which I did.

[HTC Incredible S] ashzoomerintrack:
Hmm. Will have to get a better deal on galaxy s2 maybe or sensation
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
The htc Evo 3d is well within your price range, its got a larger screen, dual core processor, more powerful gpu and better dev support as well as being 3d.

Also the Droid razr is another high end phone that I have read many good reviews about. The price has dropped somewhat, and you could find one within your budget if you looked hard enough.

It really depends on what your criteria is, I personally have mixed feelings about the IncS and probably HTC phones in general. I also own a very low budget device, a huawei u8180 and I am actually 10x more satisfied with that than what I am with this phone. There's really only one dev with one rom/kernel worth using, but he is absolutely amazing, and constantly updating and improving his work, squeezing every last drop of performance out of such a low end budget device.

I could go on, but I don't want to upset the few devs who thankfully haven't forgotten that we still exist. :)
[HTC Incredible S] jhon101:
Samsung R is the way to go. Because it is basically a stripped down version of the Galaxy S2. But the things is, it isn't available any more in india in many shops and THERE IS NO CYANOGENMOD FOR IT! Not official at least.

The second choice would be the Incredible S

Reasons:

1. Cyanogen mod 7. Official

2. better screen than the Desire

3. Better camera than any of the mentioned phones

4. SRS audio is amazing. And add to that, if you root it, you get DSP manager and trust me, after DSP, there isn't anything better than this device.

5. Overclocks up to 1.5 GHz. That's more than the amount on the Galaxy

6. 768MB ram

7. The softkeys can be completely made to disappear. Once rooted though.
[HTC Incredible S] Imp0stoR:
I had encounters with Samsung phones and I'm very disappointed in them , I'd go with a HTC and between Desire and Incredible definitely go for the Incredible S , I just gone from desire to incredible myself and its quite a jump , much much much better performance not laggy nor choppy , much more dev , love the S-LCD nice colored screen , the firm shape and the 8mp camera is just an overkill ^^

Jhon101 , how do you hide the softkeys? o.0 in cyanogenmod?
[HTC Incredible S] jhon101:
It's a script. The lights are based on an LCD display and aren't like the ones on Galaxy phones where the logo just gets lighted up and it's there even when the phone is off.

Here's the Method:

1) Download and install GScript Lite from Android Market. Its free

https://market.android.com/details?i...riptLite&hl=en

2) Download the attached gscript.zip file and extract the two files buttonledON.sh & buttonledOFF.sh to SDCard/gscript (make "gscript" folder in root of sdcard if not present already)

3) Run Gscript Lite. Allow root permission .Click Menu >Add Script.

If u have placed the two script files in correct folder, they will appear. Open and save them both. (dont edit anything other than the Name..you can change it to LED ON/OFF... Run one to turn off led light, other to turn on back to norma)

4) Two icons of script will be there to let you turn on/off those led lights.

Here's the link of the two files : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=744519&d=1318170330

You just got to be rooted that's all.

And mine doesn't switch on and off on will but is actually controlled by the baclklight settings. Eg: At lowest light, the Softkeys won't be viewable!

But of course you can access them. And they're brightest when you make the backlight the brightest. more convinient this way!

All credit goes to: jjdoctor for coming up with the script!

Make sure to hit thanks if I helped.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] depaer:
Uh hi.

I'm a herp.

So I may have accidently tried to root and flash my friend's Samsung Vibrant. It was going smoohtly but now, I'm all sorts of messed up.

The problem: I may have used the wrong kernel (zImage) when using heimdall-frontend (which I downloaded from xda). This is causing the phone to power on; it shows the Samsung Galaxy S 4g load screen, then Overstock, then the T-Mo logo sign (with the music), and then a longer Galaxy S load screen. After the load screen, the screen goes completely black, but all the touch buttons light up. Once like this, I can turn it off, and make it go back into recovery mode and also download mode.

Please help. I've been trying to solve this with my friend for about.. 4 hours.

P.S. I've looked up all the guides for using ODIN to get back to JFS, none works due to the reason that when I put it back into download mode, the computer does not recognize it. But it does at the same time. (it shows the "safetly remove hardware" and says that is an "USB mass storage device" ((but does not appear in "My Computer" when in the unresponsive screen-- but when in the download screen, it shows the same thing, only labeled "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device", which also cannot be accessed through "My Computer")

P.P.S. I'm sure it is a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant, exclusive from T-Mobile. My computer is Windows Vista 32-bit, and I have as many Samsung drivers as humanly possible when it comes to the Vibrant.

Can anyone help a poor fool?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny12times:
