[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] manpete:
I recently read an article about tablet sizes for business use. The article concluded that some 13% prefers 8-9" sizes, some 15% prefers even larger size such as 12-13" and the big majority prefers approx 10". (Obviously influence by the success of the iPad). 7"or less was in almost all cases considered as too small for business use (as an owner of a 7" Flyer I tend to disagree).

Considering the fact that the Galaxy Tab 8.9 is the best selling "small" tablet, I'd say more than 10% of the business market is interested in this tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] varsas:
I think that it's not as popular as it should be; I doubt most people have access to an 8.9 tablet to try. Anecdotally based on comments most that pick one up seem to prefer it over the 10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] sbeddoesdesign:
I dunno how popular it is, but I know it's what sold this tablet to me. I'd been using iPad for quite some time but it was the 8.9" size that convinced me to get this instead of upgrade my iPad. IMO 10" tablets are too big for reading and gaming, and 7" tablets are too small for web browsing and typing quickly, the 8.9 is perfectly in the middle and the way it's so thin and light make web browsing so perfectly easy.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
I'm guessing it's the people that weren't paying attention and flashed AT&T firmwares onto their N7000.

There already is a fix, it's called a JIG, generally only mobile phone repair stores will have them, but they'll probably charge you less than $100USD to do a reflash.

Can you get into Download mode? Keep holding volume DOWN, menu and power. You should see a screen with an 'alert' symbol. As soon as you see it you need to hit volume UP.

BTW, I don't want your money. I am just trying to help. :)

alot of them can get into cwm and download mode, but neither are panning out

cwm wont flash properly *ics/gb kernels*

download mode fails on stock firmware flash.

i feel sorry for those that bricked and hopefully ur phones get fixed soon! wish i could offer more help. but maybe try flashing in downloadmode the absolute first gb firmware for the note maybe?

try this method if you still have download mode..

download CF-ROOT ICS I9220 kernel for odin.

unzip the zip so you have a .tar file.

flash via pc odin in PDA slot.

reboot your phone to CWM *volup+home+power*

flash Franco Kernel #8

advanced menu - reboot recovery

factory reset

mount section - format /system

factory reset again.

now flash a gb rom that has a kernel included.

let me know what happens there

I have just upgraded to ICS using gnufabios revolver beta rom 1.3.1

Most things are working or being sorted, so will not nag about them. However, before I could adjust my screen size using "am display-size" in a terminal, now it is just causing an error: segmantation fault or permission denied.

Of course, I am rooted, have re-installed busybox etc, but I cannot get over it. I use this trick when doing a slideshow using the asus hdmi to VGA convertor i bought, otherwise the dimensions turn out wrong on a projector.

Hi,

I have for a long time got a lot of information from the forum and really appreciate your advice. I decided to post as i have a problem that is not common and I cannot find a solution / find relevant thread here

I have gone from one annoying problem to the next on my Nexus. I had high battery and data usage from exchange mail but solved this by re-entering my details. Now my mobile data is repeatedly switching off, every few minutes. I have to keep going into data usage to switch it back on!

Has anyone else had this problem?

thanks,

Gerard

Well if anyone is interested my two problems were related. The high battery usage and data usage from the exchange mail problems caused Juice defender to keep disabling mobile data.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] transceiver:
:confused:

I like how fast this is compared to remote desktop(RDP), but there are some major problems Ii can't seem to get help with.

1. Sometimes, typing in a capital letter sends the letter twice. Like Tthis Ttesting Why Ddoes this Happen?

2. Ccan't set custom resolution on the client (my Prime is 1280*750). RDP can do this easily.

3. Can't connect once I'm at the computer (Windows 7) lock screen. That means after Ii use remote desktop, and the computer locks, I can't reconnect anymore using Ssplashtop.

UGH. No real support on the Splashtop website either. Any ideas on fixes?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] grivy:
For 1 you should make sure to release shift last.

For 2 you could set the resolution of you pc to 750 and then select use native resolution in the app,but it is not supported by the THD version. You can probably automate switching of resolutions withsome program, as I think it's unlikly that you would want to stay on that resolution.

For 3 I would log in again with RDP then send alt+f4 when on desktop and reboot the computer.
[Thunderbolt General] b16a90teg:
Just got a new to me thunderbolt that has been in the box since may last year. Needless to say it hasn't seen any updates. It can't find an ota update. I have downloaded 2.11.605.3 and .5 and tried to manually flash in bootloader but it keeps telling me no image found 3 or 4 times then goes back to menu.

I have tried to find older updates and do it in series but everything i find was on multiupload we all know that story.

My current version 1.13.605.7.

Someone please help
[Thunderbolt General] Stratejaket:
Was the phone already rooted or is it stock with old software? It sounds like you already tried Settings > About Phone > Software Updates and hit check new? When you download these updates your finding are you placing them on the Root of your SDcard and naming them Exactly PG05IMG.zip?
[Thunderbolt General] b16a90teg:
The phone is stock and never rooted. My brother got it as a replacement last year used it for a couple days then got the charge.

Yes I downloaded the run and renamed it exactly that. When I boot into bootloader it acts like it wants to start but it says a couple times no image and then says something else then no image etc. Then instead of showing a percentage bar on the upper right of goes right back to fastboot menu.
[Thunderbolt General] b16a90teg:
Ok. With a new sim card and different sd card now it is loading... we will see how it goes.
[Thunderbolt General] Stratejaket:
Cool let us know.
[Thunderbolt General] b16a90teg:
Got it squared away. Not sure what the problem was but with a new Sim card and different Sd it loaded just fine. Now on latest firmware..

I'm coming from an x so things are a tad different. Just need to get used to the different setup.

Hope I didn't screw myself by taking newest update. I was planning on rooting and trying out a few roms.
[Thunderbolt General] _highway_:
usually it's best to root with the older updates that don't have the exploits patched yet, and then update manually with radios and roms once rooted . . .

also, hows the b16 in the DA? is that thing pretty stable in second gear on the windy roads at high rpms?
[Thunderbolt General] b16a90teg:
Don't have the da anymore. I got rid of it years ago just kept the name, it's easy to remember, lol.

It did ok though.

Well, in my case I don't have any issues with the YouTube app playing videos, but using MoboPlayer it's hit and miss and tends to FC on ocassions, I believe this must be due to the lack of HWA, so maybe the videos you have played do not rely on it so much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rccar:
Alright so my skyrocket is rooted with the faux kernel and sky ics 7.4 speed rom. My battery lasts me roughly until 6pm everyday when taken off the charger at 6am for school (obviously aren't using it during school) so that to me, is crap battery life for such a large battery capacity especially only using HSPA+ no LTE. cpu set at 1.5ghz uv -75mv, ondemand governer, screen off to 384mhz. Noticed Android System uses nearly as much battery as display, at minimum brightness.

Can anyone help me reduce this or give me any tips for better battery life?

in the pics below, i left my phone idle overnight after a 100% charge before going to bed at around 12am. woke up with the phone at 98%.

under moderate useage it will die 10%/45 minutes.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
I bought a external charging kit + spare battery package that samsung sells for around $40. An external charger (equivalent to charging your phone on AC while the power is turned off) is the best charging you can give your battery. The worst type of charging is charging your battery while the phone is on connected to a computer through USB.

Of course, who wants to charge with the phone turned off? That's why you should get this package. I never worry about charging my phone. When I'm running low, I just do a quick battery swap. A seriously annoying issue with this phone becomes a non-issue.

I also make sure I try to do a deep cycle charge. I always let it drain to around 5-15% before I swap batteries.

The rogue app that I found was a game Pirates from Disney.

12 hours isn't too bad for a Skyrocket.

On my phone, I'm rooted, running SkyIce ROM with Faux Kernel. My usage is as follows:

Display-64%

Android System-6%

Android OS-5%

Cell Standby-2%

I average around 10 hours of heavy (constant) use, and about 16 hours with normal use. I'm quite satisfied with the Skyrockets battery life. I've only had the phone for 10 days, so the battery is still settling in. It's much better than the battery life on the SGS II, which got around 8-11 hours.

I had a lot of CWM backups on my phone.

so I thought Ill do one nandroid backup of my current phone and then recover each of the previous nandroid backups to see what they actually are.

Then when I recovered my latest backub (done two hours ago) Link to SD doesnt seem to work. Before I was doing this whole CWM backup check everything was fine.:confused:

All the settings are as they should be too. only the apps linked are not theyre anymore. The apps only moved to SD are still available.

When I open Link2Sd and choose FAT partition (cause thats what my 2nd partition is) it says:

"Mount script error. Mount scipt cannot be created.

mount: mounting /dev/block/vold/179:2 on /data/sdext2 failed: Device or resource busy."

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iandol:
Your second partition has to be EXT. Try using a terminal with the following command:

tune2fs -l /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

It should tell you bad magic number as it doesn't understand FAT32

tune2fs -l /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Should work as mmcblk0p2 is the second mountpoint for the EXT partition used by A2SD, S2E and Link2SD.

Your nandroid backups are on your FAT32 partition -- back that up to your computer (copy all files or make a disk image). Then repartition the SD card using CWM, turn off phone, now copy your files back to the new FAT32 (which will now be partition 1). Now reinstall SD card, boot in CWM and restore

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aid85:
Is this real ?

1) Why CWM restore formats sd-ext? Why is it not limited to work on internal memory? -> If this is true should be a good thing to remove always SD when using CWm... oh... no... :( this is not possible... If I remove it how can a restore be done from an sd ?

2) Reformatting sd-ext to original ext2 (compatible with stock ROMs) and restoring content (copu\paste) is s working solution to fix this problemi? Anybody can confirm this ?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] outpox:
Hey ! I today had a problem with my transformer. I was on stock ics rooted rom and I wanted to give a try to the CM9 with cornerstone rom.

I made a nandroid backup before wiping everything. When it launched, I wanted to connect to internet as usual. But I encountered the problem wich is the topic. The wifi icon (I'm talking about the color, not the toggle button wich was stucked on OFF) was stucked between the OFF-ON step, you know when you click on it, the color change a bit before being lighted wich mean it's on. When I watched Wifi in parameters panel, it was stucked on : Wifi activation.

I waited some hours but nothing happened.

So I tried to come restore my last rom, so I performed a wipe (even if it is maybe useless) and then I backed up. But the problem remained on my back up!

Finally I installed the same rom as the nandroid backup on the back up and it worked.

I just posted this cause I did not find anything on google or xda, so I hope it will help someone a day.
