[General Questions and Answers] theizzardking:
Looking for a new phone that I can use in the uk on lets say the o2 network and come.home swap.sim cards and use on my verizon plan.

I understand it needs to be unlocked, I'm interested in which android phones that have the right radios and are 4g capable when state side and the xda support to unlock it in the first place, I love this place.

I'm too deep into android to go with apple and would defeat the purpose I'm trying to attain.

Which is data and account fluidity

When traveling, also ok with only connecting to wifi for data abroad, just tired of two phones and having to copy all of my data each trip , uk side phone is issued to me and is circa 1996 nokia so synch is not ready. Just want to use company sim in my verizon phone.

I also want the best out right now for my needs and also for roms and developer support .

Thanks for the help with a big question like this , hadn't looked into phones since the release date of my current.handset and there is a lot out there, I feel like I really ****ed up in choosing my current phone and now seek help before jumping in again. Current phone is a droid charge . Thanks again !
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hudsond:
long story short,

i have a rooted nook color and was trying further modify it. i mixed up the SD card with one containing a rom for an htc hero. i noticed it immediately but there was not anything that i could do. i have tried everything without any success. it will make a sound when plugged into the computer but that's it.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
Hold power on nook for 30 seconds.... then remove the SD.

Create a CWM bootable SD.

Place it in the nook and power it on.

The bad news is it probably screwed all your partitions and we'll have to do some recreating of rombackup.zip and factory.zip

We'll figure that out after you get it booting into CWM
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hudsond:
ill try it as soon as i get home
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hudsond:
I appreciate your help. I am out of town and its hard to find the time. I plan to try it soon, I just don't want to rush and mess it up worse.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trankwillkaos:
I'm in the same boat

I accidently (on purpose) deleted the emmc partition on my nook. I was dual booting from emmc to stock rooted 1.2 and CM7. Now my nook won't even begin to boot up. The screen won't turn on or anything. Is it toast?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fattire:
Nope. Make an "emergency SD" -- something with cwm or one of racks' bootable cards. You can boot into that. At that point, if you've deleted partitions you can re-create them on the emmc. Then you can use clockworkmod to reflash them.

NCs are really, REALLY hard to brick permanently (I remember when "bricking" was synonymous with permanently destroying or turning a device into a non-recoverable brick.. but I guess it now means going into a non-bootable state or something)... in any event, don't give up hope. You should be able to recover so long as there is no physical damage.

Hey. .. I am using a HTC desire. .rooted. .for almost a year now.. here's my biggest problem. I have been using Transcend 16gb CLASS 2 card. . Which is very slow. And I need to to buy a new card.. I was wondering if I should

Buy a class6 card or a class 10.. how much would the performance be affected. .moreover. . Which company is better transcend ..SanDisk. .or anything else.. ?!

Please help.
[General Questions and Answers] Tekkaro:
the best purchase atm is: Samsung micro SDcard class 10 - good price, good quality, very fast
[General Questions and Answers] OnePingOnly:
Go for a class 10. I really notice a difference using my SLR camera when I swap between a Class 6 and the 10 - the 10 being way faster.
[General Questions and Answers] j0rd4nkzf:
Class 10 all the way. I have a class 10 and it's slow, I wonder how slow will a lower class be.
[General Questions and Answers] claytonjn:
I use class 10 cards in my DSLR, and would normally recommend them, however after installing CM7 on a microSD for my mother's nook color everything I read said your better getting a SanDisk class 2 than anything else, even in class 10. Apparently there is not a good standard for rating cards. I would recommend looking up specific benchmarks and choose from them.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
I would not suggest a class 2 card as Android has issues reading it due to it being too slow. I have used class 4 and class 10 and I can feel a huge difference in the read and write speed.

[General Questions and Answers] meter1060:
Careful when buying sandisk especially online. There are some bad apolss out there selling improperly marked sd cards which say class 10 but really are just class 2.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Well Class 2 guarantess you 2MB/s, Class 6 6MB/s and Class 10 10MB/s.

6 is enough, 10 is better, see what you can afford.

Probably a tradeoff between speed and space.

Check how much space you really need.
[General Questions and Answers] Jigen90:
Is it class so important?

I mean..when you have a class 4 isn't just enough for a smartphone?
[General Questions and Answers] khanhtrinh:
Same thought. I have an 8GB class 4 SD card and i feel fine with it.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
For just having media files on there, probably.

If you start putting apps to be run from there, you wan't as much speed as possible.
[General Questions and Answers] khanhtrinh:
I think it much more depends on your ROM, not your external card. I have installed my apps on the ext2 partition and it does not appear to have any differences.
[General Questions and Answers] palad1n:
I havent noticed any differences between class 6 and class 10.
[General Questions and Answers] mihano:
From personal experience, the speed of the card makes a big difference for the Desire because of all the app2sd games.

As someone mentioned before, brand and the store are also very important.

I bought a Lexar class 6 16GB and quite happy with it.

Make sure to do proper alignment on it.
[General Questions and Answers] Nuenjin:
I was thinking of this link coming into this thread, it needs to be a forum-wide sticky. For a camera, a class 10 would most definitely be required. But for Android, there does not seem to be a consensus.

Good luck
[General Questions and Answers] nibbleart:
you should buy a class 10 dude:) samsung or another
[General Questions and Answers] xviruz:
Go for a class 10. If you aim for sales and such, you can get one for the normal price of class 6 cards.

Buy 2 phones and never worry about battery...

Try different setups and see what you like, generally most will have about the same battery life. The apps you grab is what kills your battery by wakelocks and other methods.

Anyone else have a problem downloading shadowgun and playing? I bought it last night and downloaded the extra files. The game froze at the start screen. I'm on the energy ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Jms122589:
Not that specific problem but during the first mission after the "boot camp" phase my screen would get really fuzzy and pixelated then it would just freeze my phone untilled I took the battery out. This was on beastmod 2.3

Maybe I should email them, anyone had any luck with that?

I get the same pixelated fuzzy screen then it freezes/crashes my phone until it reboots itself or I take my battery out. Except with me, it freezes the moment the gameplay starts and you can move around...

I've tried installing each of the Chainfire3D (pro) plugins and running all three of them seperately, then completely uninstall both the game and ChainFire3D, reboot into recovery and wipe the cache and reinstall the apps with another plugin ... Then I was on the developers website/Tech Support Forum, and the lady said to NOT use ChainFire3D at all, to uninstall all plugins, hit the Fix Market button be reboot/reinstall the game. Because the version of ShadownGun should be compatible with most/all newer,Qualcomm, PowerVR and Nvidia Trgra handets ... so oont have single god as to what I'm downng incorrectly. M

Basic Systems Engineering Question

What system (in order of importance):

1) runs the software that you absolutely need?

2) does the job for the lowest cost (reliability and performance issues can soften this a bit)

3) will continue to do 1 and 2 for the longest period of time

4) provides other benefits that may be of use.

No other analysis makes any sense unless you can buy more than one.

Why? These aren't old PC's. This has so little to do with what makes a tablet good to use.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Guardsix:
This is a good thread because I'm also considering the Prime or the TF700.

I just sold my iPad 2 (whew!) and got a decent price for it so I have the money, just trying to figure out what Android tablet to buy.

Seems like I can't find the Prime any where so my decision might be made for me. I think I heard the TF700 wasn't coming out until June! I don't know if I want to wait that long.

Has anyone heard when ASUS will fix their supply problems and will the next batch of Transformer Primes have current wifi, BT and GPS problems fixed? I don't really care about GPS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrboss23:
If you are going to get an android tablet the prime will be best unless you don't care about paying an extra $100 in "June" for the tf700. I have a prime and with all the updates the wifi and Bluetooth works fine. GPS struggles a little depending on where I am located. It works off an on but it does function. At $499 its the best.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] barondebxl:
So the wifi is working fine now? How is your signal?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 2jzmoe:
I received my prime today and I am loving it, a lot more than the galaxy tab 10.1 i had. WiFi seems fine to me, works better than my sgs1 and as good a sgs2. Have no complaints at all. Will do a network test later I am Done playing with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jsorvik:
I had a prime with the wifi/bt dropoff problem and I returned it since repair solutions seem uncertain. There were many things I loved about the prime, just too much instability in the wifi performance. I presently am watching to see if asus comes up with more consistent results from their manufacturing process or possibly for the tf700 with its redesigned backplate.

I do not like IOS, so the ipad 3 is really not an option for me. I am using an HP Touchpad with CM9 while I wait and watch......
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mario_1603:
i pre order again the prime from amazon, i'll take the risk because i live in El Salvador and i cant return it or for a refund.. i really want it and since i had my atrix 2 i love android instead ios
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrboss23:
My signal is good, the updates that Asus has sent out which has been about 4 has greatly improved wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Guardsix:
I read some where on this forum that ASUS had some news coming out on or about the 12th of March. Also, I've heard that new parts have been applied to later Prime tablet builds to fix the wifi/BT problems. Might just wait until Apr.

Thanks for the response.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
My wifi has always been fine. It seems its hit and miss with some units or even different wifi router configurations. Personally have had zero problems connecting at university in many places, a couple hospitals and a doctors office, two airports now and two hotels. My macbook pro gets a stronger signal but matches throughput with my prime at home from across the house. The signals are equal between the prime and my Samsung phone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] barondebxl:
Thanks for the answer. I really want the prime, especially after the "new ipad " announcement. Its a good tablet but i had an ipad 2 so besides the huge difference in screen resolution, its pretty much the same. Ive come to learn that with apple products its good to skip one year. But i really like the prime but i dont want to take any chances over the wifi issues so ill get the new ipad for now and will wait till the tf700 i think its called comes out later.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
The tf700 has now been dubbed the transformer infinity by ASUS.

First off I've got native SIP calling working through ICS. I set it up using the Sipdroid/GV approach and everything works fine as long as I have the box for "Receive Incoming Calls" checked.

My problem is. If I uncheck the incoming calls box I can no longer make calls either. I get a Response Timeout when trying to call. I don't want the extra battery drain from this because I never get calls and I only use the number to call out.

According to the guys at the att store...that there is supposed to be a ics push sometime within the next 30 days....at least that is what they said when I bricked my phone and replaced it...they thought that maybe I got a push already...I kind of looked at them like they were crazy...then one said to the other that he read it in their "kms" system. When I worked for sprint KMS stood for Knowledge management system...it was essentially the end all be all of all possible knowledge about a phone or company policy.

I still think this is speculation and I won't say with 100 percent confidence that either of them were telling the truth.
[LG Nitro HD] affenzeit:
If At&t does push ICS out, would that make it easier to compile CM9 for the VS920 (LG Spectrum)?
[LG Nitro HD] Epyoch:
Amazing question I don't have a spectrum so I don't know
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
Spectrum is very similar (same SOC), but it uses a different radio (to account for CDMA). So unless the AT&T version of CM9 is specifically modded, it won't work for Spectrum.
