[Nexus S General] terryd1980:
Has anyone managed to get anywhere with this?, I'm paying £5 extra for tethering but they limit me to 1GB per month even though I have an all-you-can-eat data plan!.

I want to use the same 3G connection for my PC as I do for the phone so they can't see what I'm up to and can use more than 1GB without getting rumbled.

Do you think they're using port numbers (e.g. 8080) to see if it's a PC or an android device?

I've hit the same problem, tried loads of apps and the best I can get is a browser window telling me off :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] caliber177:
I just want to know how you guys without screen protectors or cases feel about putting the phone face down when listening to music or something...

Are you afraid of scratches?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Guess it depends on the table/surface, but I'd never like to make a practice of it. I guess at worse it's scratching the top/bottom and not the middle, but more than likely it's going to scratch the plastic bezel on the top/bottom which looks terrible when it happens.

I just leave it back-down so I don't risk it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3bs11:
I've only had mine for about two weeks but yes I'm not comfortable putting it face down unless it's on a smooth surface like my bed or bag or something like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
People who are worried about scratches won't leave the phone naked in the first place.

My friend never puts any protector or case on his phones and his argument is 'it's just a phone, not my girlfriend. Why protect it so well when I'm gonna toss it away for a new one in about 1.5 years?'
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3bs11:
That's not necessarily true. Sure it might be from some people but not for me and I'm sure others as well. I care a lot about my products but I just love the way my GNex feels and looks without any cases and screen protectors. I guess I'm taking a risk by not protecting it but for the time being I'm going to enjoy it the way it is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mongoro:
Resale value of unlocked phones. If I smash my gnex, so be it. But I like to put a screen protector, and one of those 3m decals a-la gelaskin or decalgirl, etc... so that way my keys or change or table scratch that instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3bs11:
I don't get why people don't put their phone in a separate pocket to avoid scratches from change, keys etc :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdkenji:
Just dun put keys n ur phone in da same pocket ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
I guess you will eventually pick a side - either throws on a case/protector or just use it normally and forget about scratches. It's hard to be using something everyday and worrying about it all the time.

If you are thinking about reselling the phone then yes, it makes sense to protect it well. For him, he either took it apart or tossed it away LOL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Not really... I hate the feel of cases and screen protectors especially, so I'm extra careful with my phone because it's not protected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sjankis630:
I put mine facedown down on a supposedly smooth table and when i picked it up, scratches! Be safe just don't put it face down on anything but a soft surface - as suggested above. It is just a phone, but it is a very nice and expensive phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HeCareth:
I can't stand those skins and screen protectors, takes away from the natural beauty of the phone. I have a SPG leather case so if it is face down, and it really never is I put it face down on the case.

I do take extra care of mt phones though because I like to switch up about every year. It is great for resale, plus more cash for towards the next phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
Glass is hard, but not that hard. There are a ton of substances that can easily scratch it. I don't put it face down unless it's in a case.

Ask yourself, what would Moh do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Nerd alert.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
Word.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
on my bed i put it face down on my fur blanket...and in my pocket its on its own with nothing else....i slide the phone in my pocket with my palm facing the screen, and when its in my pocket, i flip the screen to face my leg! zero scratches (so far) and ive had it for a few months
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoungAceAtlanta:
Why should I put the phone face down to start with? I can't show off my rainbow LED notifications if that's the case :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] caliber177:
We would put our phone face down to increase volume when listening to music?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sic0048:
I decided to put a protector on mine. While I like the look and feel of the screen better without it, it just isn't worth the risk to me. I plan on having this phone for a while. (I had my DroidX for almost two years prior to getting the Galaxy Nexus).

Besides, it is rarely your car keys that scratch the screen (because we are generally careful about those). More often than not it is something really small like a piece of sand or a tiny rock in your pocket or on the table that will get you. Unless you blow out your pockets and sweep the table before you put your phone down, you are likely to get a scratch eventually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
I always take the inside of my pocket out and brush off lint, or whatever in there! I just cleaned my screen with a lint free cloth and put it under a light to verify no scratches...and I found zero! Not even a lint scratch! Phew! Lol

:D :D :D ;) ;) ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LightningXCE:
Surprisingly, the screen protectors at Verizon (like, 12 bucks for a pack of 3) work nicely and look damn-near invisible. The surface feels almost exactly the same as well.

I forget it's on sometimes, hah!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
give it time...the scratches will show up on those protectors lol! ;)

Sticky Thread​

Hi all

As the sticky list in this forum is so long, i thought it was time for a roll up thread. I feel it keeps the forum uncluttered, making it easier for us all to find what we need.

For now i have just added the existing ones. But please feel free to leave sticky requests in this thread, along with good evidence why they should be added.

Your friendly moderator:)

This thread needs to be made sticky as well. It's got info. on how to change the /initlogo.rle file which is the second splash screen displayed on the gTab.

The threads for changing the first and the last eye-candies (ie., the boot splash screen and the boot animation) have already been made sticky.

Another minor thing: the description for the "G Tablet Accessories" sub-forum should say "Viewsonic G Tablet" instead of "Viewsonic T Tablet".

[Defy General] android167:
First i must say that i didn't use this phone over 2 months. The last thing i did is that i installed "sense rom", i restored the backup, and from that point my phone wouldn't boot, it will just flash Moto logo every 5 sec, so i just turn it off, because i didn't need it.

And now i got my third sim card and i need my third phone. But the battery is dead on Defy, if i try to charge it. It is always flashing "moto" logo, and it's not charging.

I tried to enter the bootloader and it said that the battery is too low, i don't know how to charge it. My PC does not recognize my defy at all, there is just white light on the notification light.

Is my Defy bricked? What should i do?
[Defy General] mckarty:
you never brick a defy, just have a bad experience but always remember to have a least 60% of battery before any firmware process
[Defy General] asn39:
charge your battery first

first charge your battery from any external charger...keep it for 6 to 8 hours...

insert in defy and try then...

low battery is only problem i think...
[Defy General] Fodderp:
+1
[Defy General] mckarty:
you say tha you have a white led on the defy,then probably al tha you need is charge it give ti some time, get in stock recovery and do a wipe.

other way is the Mcgyver way wich is very simple even when it looks risky

you may get help on this thred http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=892026
[Defy General] android167:
Thank you so much! But i don't have externatl battery charger, that't the biggest problem. And when i put my Defy to charge it immediatly turns on and ends in a bootlop (Red Moto logo). Il try to wipe data and cache and then put it to charge it...

EDIT: This tutorial that @mckarty gave me worked! Thank you!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] media_11:
I love white phones and since t959v doesn't come in white, I have been thinking about trying this kit on the link below. Has anybody tried this? what are your thoughts?

http://goo.gl/7ZcIE
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mituzora:
I assume it would, as they're both the same form factor, and stuff. it also has a hole for the front facing camera, so it seems like it'd work
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
i'd be interested to know as well
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
If you do get it please report back here and let us know if it worked or not. Im not real keen on spending money on things like that unless Im half certain it will work. If it was 20 bucks cheaper I would jump on it in a jiffy.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] media_11:
I have been thinking about getting this but I am not sure about opening my phone. I've never opened a phone in my life before. I've opened some computers but everytime I failed to put it back together. My brother is good at it. He has opened and put back together his iphone few times so I am going to ask him.

I can only imagine how sexy this phone look in white.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Looks like it should work. You an get an idea of how hard it will be to do as well as compare the screw holes and casing forms by looking at this:

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-S-4G-Teardown/4977/1

I've had my phone apart a few times and it's relatively easy. Just make sure to have a good work space and some time. I've found it also helps to put down some white paper to lay things out on. Makes finding everything a whole lot easier.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Another thing to use is a cookie sheet. That way screws cant "run" off.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
That would keep those pesky little 2mm screws from rolling onto the carpet. I usually loose at least one every time.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] media_11:
I don't think I can do it after looking at if it it pics. It gets kind of complicated after step 11. I think I am going to see if I can find a white back cover somewhere.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] WeeMaNcL:
looks great!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Skorpion_:
Damn, there out of stock. If anyone can find another source for this kit let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
+1 to that. I wanna try that, see how it would look
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
I don't think it would work. Our phone has a bulge at the bottom (I assume that's where the 4G antenna is or something), but that bulge is a lot smaller on the original vibrant.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
I'll have to agree that the bulge might be a problem...

BTW, while we're at it... I found replacement parts here: http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S-4G-SGH-T959V-Parts-s/7260.htm

oooo, ouch, and I just noticed that the housing replacement is the international version. Notice there isn't a spot for the capacitive buttons at the bottom. Just the home button :(

The Android Market will now be known as "Google Play."

Starting now, Google has begun the next step in the evolution of the Android Market and are calling it Google Play. The Android Market name is being retired, but no worries, Google Play looks exactly the same as the Market. Android 2.2+ devices will receive an updated Google Play Store within the next few days and things will go on as usual.

Google is going to great length to make consumers aware of the connectivity between all of their devices through their web and cloud services. Buy a song on your laptop and its instantly available on your phone. To give Play a grand opening, Google is hosting some good deals on media this week:

"To celebrate, we’ll be offering a different album, book, video rental and Android app at a special price each day for the next week in our “7 Days to Play” sale."

You put the one that matches what phone yours was on in the first place - which is set when you run the RUU you downloaded before rooting your phone

You did get the RUU for your phone before rooting didn't you? ;)
[HTC Sensation] snipedown:
I did. I thought I could redo that step. Thanks.

The phone runs fine. It just gets warmer than it did. I'm not sure if I should leave it. The battery seems to last.
[HTC Sensation] snipedown:
This is my first flashed rom. Enough to barely make my hand sweat (clammy) during heavy use.

Is this acceptable?

The life of the battery seems to be the same as the stock rooted Rom- possibly better.

Thanks for your help!

When I want to watch a video on the internet I get an option to stream or download. If I click stream nothing happens and if I click download it streams. Shouldn't it be the other way? I don't see a downloads option in internet explorer either. When i do manage to download a file there's no progress bar or anything it just says downloading. Once its completed it says tap to play and when i tap nothing happens, its not under videos either. Please help.

Unfortunately we at the mercy of IE9 which mango has. Supposely it had some HTML5 support but if the web site you trying to use does not match with HTML5 the microsoft way then it likely not going to work. You might have to use PC then use Zune to bring it in your phone. If you had an example maybe I could look.

A: You don't need an Android device.

B: Wait, there's an Android market but you don't need Android?

A: That's right.

B: Why on earth it's called Android market then?

That's why they needed to change the name. You can Play Music, Movies and Games.
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
Wasn't music sold on Google Music?

Doesn't matter anyways, just went to check it out and it's already under the Google Play brand.
[Wildfire General] owner eod:
The real question is how will we update our market 0.o
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
It'll probably fly in as an update for the Market (Which I won't get, since I froze the updater, to prevent the market from auto updating itself to 3.X)
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
Okay, I admit Play Store would work.

Hey guys ,

Today i started the market and it gave me a popup to accept the terms etc of google play. So it seems to be true.

Anyways, does only the name change or does more things change?
[Wildfire General] 101112:
No, PLAY is the name of a new tablet. Like the nexus. Google registered some domains via a other company, and a tablet wil be more logic than an appstore called play.

That is what other trusted site says.

I was just flashing my phone back to the Stock Telus ROM from the Index thread using Odin. I went into download mode and then I added the PIT file from the Odin folder by clicking the PIT button, then pressed the PDA button and added the Stock ROM TAR file. I connected the device and it was detected, so i pressed start and it was going to do the NAND flash and it said Error. So i tried again, same thing.

Now my phone will not boot up at all, meaning:

-Absolutely nothing on the screen

-Buttons don't do anything

-I got the USB to pick up something called a QUSB-DUMP but then the driver installation failed and I haven't got it to do it again.

-So the phone does absolutely nothing

I remembered that there was no instructions that said anything about the PIT file, so maybe that was it? Please help in anyway you can! Thanks!
