MS will be dropping Zune from Windows 8 for a Active Sync type Windows Phone Manager. They are also looking into developing a new music service/player so it doesn't look good for Zune. :(

Probably need an updated version of your sync software.

I had same issue with several usb devices. Check for yellow bangs in device manager. I ran windows update and then right clicked on the device choose to update the device. Also on the rezound I had to point it to the htc driver folder in program files folder.

Hope this helps.

A friend wants me to "build" him a Xoom setup just like mine, ie Zoom 32GB, case, bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

I tried to sell him on a refurb unit but he insists on new and I'm wondering if the price on Amazon can be beat. (Roughly, $424-$435)

Thanks for your help.

Hey, I was on CM7 for a while and then switched over to the new eclipse 2.1 and the one thing I really loved about the CM7 was I had control of changing the songs using the volume buttons so I didn't have to actually take out my phone to wake it up to change the song.

Is there a way to have these music controls added onto eclipse? If anyone knows a way, please let me know. Thanks.

wow, your thread reminded me that my old Kyocera 7135 did that (how many years ago was THAT?), what a great feature that was!
[LG Optimus Black] hytheriousme:
Hey guys. I just rooted, flashed a new ROM ( newest CM7) onto my p970 last night, so yeah, I'm a total newb and so much confused about these things. Apparently I saw a thread about kernels and that they kinda improve performances and stuff, so I tried installing them. And now my phone is in boot loop state and I can't boot CWM to reflash the original kernel. I used Huexxx's kernel from this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1332311

So I'd be really grateful if someone could link a thread on how to fix this, or a step by step guide. And I'm totally new to this forum so I'd like to apologize beforehand if I break any forum rules and the likes. Thx.

__________________________________________________

* nvm, I somehow was able to boot into CWM from the boot screen and then I just reflashed the current ROM. Thx btw :)
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
What has happened to you device? Bootloop? DO this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275315 AND READ my NOOBGUIDE!

You have to flash a new software, root it, install CWM and then reflash CM7 WITHOUT KERNEL! There is none working at this time. Although Nova 12 is planed for it ;)

-edit- woops read your edit too late...
[LG Optimus Black] hytheriousme:
Thx bro

| Thx for the reply, really appreciate it. Man there are a lot o' things I need to learn :)
[LG Optimus Black] hytheriousme:
| btw, if you don't mind answering, it seems that the phone gets real laggy after a an hour or so of turning it on. I've checked the apps and made sure that none are eating up the phone's memory. Is it just me or does it has something to do with CM7?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Hope you dont use any memory cleaner or other "tuning" software, since this mostly only messes the phones up... Mine runs fine, so I guess it is a problem on your side. I always recommend fix permission from within RomManager, cause it often solves/solved problems. I also always move all apps to SD card, inside of App Manager (the stock one, not anyone from market) cause it saves space and resources for the phone.

Did you mess around with cyanogen settings? Which governor do you use? Maybe use SetCPU or NoFrills or similar? If so, uninstall it.

Simply list all your apps, if none of the given tips helped :) And do a reboot all couple days, since it seems to be good for the phone :)

there's an app in the market to play with the devices pixel density look for it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
I think he's already got that part covered homie, he's asking how to make the dialer match the density. It becomes a skewed when the density is changed on a stock based ROM.

The only way I know is to use a 3rd party dialer app. Good luck.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intelensprotient:
Hi!

In order to automatically switch to Wifi Keyboard as my current input method when plugging my phone (Atrix, Android 2.2.2) into my computer, I am looking to circumvent the security restrictions preventing that. Normally, applications are not given the permission to change input methods due to them being in control of the system, possibly with malicious intent.

Now, my phone is rooted, and root shall be your god, so this must be possible. To further complicate matters, I am trying to acieve this through Tasker (which does not know about root), as it already provides the several other tasks I want to achieve and can trigger them in any context imaginable. It is, however, able to run scripts - so if there is a way to do this by script, I'm set.

Google gave me a link to the developer.android.com reference to InputMethodManager (which I am not allowed to post here yet...), which says, among other things, the following:

The identification of the current IME is represented by this:

I take from this that I either have to

a) gimme that BIND_INPUT_METHOD permission,

b) remove that whole restriction at least temporarily,

c) impersonate being the currently active IME by taking the imeToken away or

d) tell the IME that it should switch to another one.

Unfortunately, my programming experience is limited to C (on microcontrollers...), Python and PHP, and I have no greater experience with fitting my scripts into lager-scale frameworks, only in small ones for personal or limited use. So, well, I have no idea how to achieve any of these goals.

Could someone tell me if what I want to do is even possible, and if so, how? I don't need the full code, if there is much to it, but rather some directions, altough I certainly would not mind it ;)

Thanks a bunch for any advice in advance!

V

PS: I hope it is not rude for me to ask this in here, but well, it's kinda-sorta dev stuff, and neither Google nor the Forum search turned up anything even close to an answer.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inconceivable124:
Use "Secure Settings". It will allow you to switch keyboard input using Tasker. It also lets you turn gps on and off as well as some other things.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bbop:
Hi from what i understand, my bootloader is automatically unlocked as my phone is unbranded and was bought sim-free. I ran a test through a terminal emulator on the device and it confirmed that my bootloader is unlocked (can't remember exactly the steps I took though).

basically, I really like the stock firmware but I hate the bloatware.

I would like to continue with the stock firmware but I wouldn't mind the benefits of getting root as well as some other minor tweaks. However, I would like to keep it as simple as possible so that the benefits of further unlocking my device definitely outweigh the effort it takes to get it there.

QUESTIONS:

Will I have to further unlock my device in some way in order to proceed with;

A- flashing a new kernel

B- flashing a new FW

Or is my device ready and good to go in its current state?

Is it possible to keep stock firmware and just flash a custom kernel for root access and other tweaks? (I am hoping that this is the case)

If so, which kernel would you recommend if the aim is to keep the experience simple and close to stock?

if not, which kernel and FW would you recommend?

How does installing a new kernel and/or firmware break the update process - could I still use PC companion when ICS comes out?

thanks for any advice - I'm no linux noob but this is my first android phone so some of the obvious stages are going a little over my head.

thanks for any help!

p.s. currently on 4.0.2.A.0.69

Hey guys, despite having the correct APN I can't enable data on my wifes Sensation.

Tried my own SIM to no avail and tried different firmware to make sure it wasn't an incompatible radio or RIL.

S-off, Super CID, created SIM data in HBoot but wondering if I should maybe repeat that step again or should I try something else?

I'd tried GSM/CDMA auto PRL because it always switches to WCDMA preferred after flagging a new firmware but I can't enable a data connection no matter what. If someone fixes this I'll throw them an immediate reward via Paypal. New to the Sensation and poised for time unfortunately. My wife really needs this working so thanks in advance. I'll keep researching.
[HTC Sensation] johnerz:
first open the dialer

Type *#*#4636#*#*

select phone info

look for the only drop down box - hit it - choose wcdma prefered - hit back 3 times

Go to menu settings woreless and networks

hit mobile network - it need to be ticked

hit mobile networkS hit APN or Access point names - hit the menu button - choose reset to defaults

go back to mobile networks - choose network mode, select wcdma only - look for the 3G or h sign when it shows go back and choose gsm/wcdma auto

if that fails do a manual net work selection - choose your networks 3G option

In any event, flashed the appropriate firmware with a good radio and RIL and she's got great reception! So stoked. Now I just have to make sure she doesn't go over her data plan because that'll cost me a fortune as well... women!! lol

So I had this issue in Honeycomb and now in ICS.

Easily repeatable. I launch an app, any app, go into portrait mode. When finished, I hit back or home, change orientation to landscape, and the Launcher crashes. "Unfortunately, Launcher has stopped"

looking at the logs I have a:

threadid-1: thread exiting with uncaught exception. (group=0x40a531f8)

It happens as soon as all the widgets finish loading, but I can get it to replicate on a non-widget screen.

Anyone know how I can track down what is causing this? I was hoping ICS would fix it but its not.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Are you stock ICS?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schmak01:
Yup.. 4.0.3 stock.

I think is "sort of" figured it out. I read something somewhere, can't recall where, that having too many widgets pulling data on your home screens can cause it to error if you rotate before its able to finish loading.

It loads not just the widgets on your current screen, but all screens. So I killed a bunch I don't ever look at, and it seems stable. I'll go back adding one after another to test and see which crashes it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilianmolinari:
Hello guys,

I received an OTA update this morning, about 8mb. After downloading and installing it, my phone doesn't boots anymore, even in recovery mode. When I press the power button, the opening screen (the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 thing) shows up, and the phone shuts down again in a few seconds, before any other thing happens. In recovery mode, the android with a loading bar shows up for a few seconds before everything goes dark again. When I plug the charger, the battery icon shows around 70% battery. Anyone has an idea of what's going on?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adelmundo:
My parents are going to the Philippines later this month, in the Makati/Taguig area mainly.

1. How much are GNote's selling over there for

2. A good place to purchase it in that area for a great price

3. I'm assuming GNotes on sale in the Philippines are the GSM version with Exynos and unlocked (can use on AT&T or Smart Talk in the USA)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jermitano:
1. for most online stores (kimstore/dbgadgets/widgetcity) they are selling it from 28 - 29K (service warranty) and additional 3K with the samsung warranty...samsung stores sell it between 33-35K...

2. most cellular shops in sm malls now offer competitive prices (unlike before)...they sell between 31-33K with the samsung warranty...you can check out technokid/aerofone/bsd shops etc...

3. yes the notes here are international unlocked versions (and some sell "gray" international unlocked) which can be used anywhere...the come with the 1.4 exynos chip

- was able to answer this after almost a month of canvassing :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] adelmundo:
Thanks for the quick reply. So if I get the Samsung warranty and my phone should break while using it in the USA, then the warranty is only valid in the Philippines? That would be OK for me because I have family in the Philippines so I could send it to them if it would need to be fixed it's just turnaround time would be a hassle (would have to ship phone there, then my relatives would have to send it in, then send it back to me after it was serviced), but I wonder if the warranty could be used in the USA?

And what is the Gray International Version?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] letters_to_cleo:
Gray version means to say it comes from the gray market...

not usually sold by official distributors of Samsung and its affiliated partners.

Usually you will get less or No warranty at all on some gray market stores. Some offer you warranty but only to the store where you bought your unit.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] emignatius:
I've already posted this in the accessories section but here are my cases again and I bought them in Singapore.

The blue case (Uniq) is probably going to be available here in the PH soon 'coz I see this brand cases for the iPad and Galaxy tabs in local stores and I'm telling you now, don't buy this. Yes it looks great, but the case is covering the mic and when I make calls while using the case, the person on the other line can't hear me clearly so it's kind of sitting in my shelf at the moment.

The reason I got the brown case (Verus) is because of the speaker hole. I was thinking of getting other cases but most of them don't have this hole and I find it really convenient to have this feature so you won't need to flip over the case whenever taking calls.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] KaliKot:
Not familiar with where Aerofone is though :(

Im not yet rooted and I've had it for about a week and a half. I might just do so this weekend. I will have to downgrade the firmware first since I did 2 OTA updates already

Currently I'm using a knockoff SGP Ultra Thin (For Php250). White case on White Note REALLY looks nice, but I could use something with a stand

The Verus case looks okay , but I would really prefer not having a flap since its annoying to use one handed (on the MRT) or to use it in landscape.

I have a Chinese flap (bought together with the phone) case with a hole for the speaker as well and another hole to see whoever is calling without opening up the flap, but it becomes really thick due to the case and the holes make me feel that the screen isnt protected anyway, so why bother.
