[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhijit_net:
I selected 25 - 30 vcf at a time, then its able to add them to contacts.

I went alphabetically, first imported all A, then B..... till Z.

Was a tedious job.

Actual problem was that Contacts app does not like few VCF files, and stops transfer if one bad VCF gets selected.

I don't see a good future for new Contacts app in ICS.

Hey guys...

I tried to root my phone, but when I searched for the update.zip file (the file was already in the sd card) to apply the update it didn't show up...

need some help please

Thanks !

So it turns out if the alarm goes off and then another application goes over it (like snooze calendar) the alarm will stop !

I missed an alarm the other day and i didn't realize why... then today luckily i was up when it went off. And then a second later the snooze notification came up and the alarm stopped.

Any one knows a fix for this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
Have you tried Missed Message Flasher? Not sure if it works with alarm notifications, but it supports many app notifications so I wouldn't be surprised if it does.

It only happens when there's another notification program going and is on top of the alarm.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
So remove the bogus app and your alam clock will work, or maybe you should set your alarms with this app instead of the generic alarm clock(?)

OMG. 10char.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Dave*228:
Ive had the note 3 weeks now and its been perfect with alarms.

So the obvious thing is remove the app that is messing your's up. Or; post the author of the offending app and let them know what is happening. They may have a fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lowspeed:
It's a specific bug. Believe me.

Anyway a tested a different alarm, Alarm Clock Xtreme, and it works find in that situation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] techntrek:
So calendar snooze is supposed to enable repeat reminders, but is instead eliminating the original reminder... hmmmm, I believe your answer was given in #6 and #8.

Next.

Oh, and if you want help I suggest you don't piss on everyone that tries to help.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Coflropter:
I think it's ugly. I don't like it. I like how Engadget's review put it in saying that it's inconsistent on how HTC implimented its features into ICS.

like here for instance.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anubis2k3:
Ummm, you talkin about look or functionality?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bmkindoll:
If Sense 4.0 is much leaner than 3.6, why wouldnt they want to put 4.0 on our phones ESPECIALLY. I mean in theory, our phones shouldnt be as quick as the Rezound, who is getting the leaner software. Doesnt make a lot of sense if you ask me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anubis2k3:
Haha, the sense were getting doesn't make "sense". Lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
HTC says that the reason why some of the current HTC phones aren't getting Sense 4.0 is because of the image chip technology added to the HTC One series. :(

eh, i'm quite a fan of nitsuj's bullet rom myself

I like 3.0 almost exclusively
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
they make that execuse with every single update that they dont give :p ie our gen phones cant have sense 3.5 because of hd limitiations yet the htc rhyme has virtually identical specs and launched with it

they just want a selling point for their newer phones
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] username235:
The rezound is getting 3.6, I'm using it right now actually. I like, it pretty nice, but 4.0 is much nicer, after playing with it, I'm really excited for a fully functional port of it. If the inc2 can handle 3.5 from gb, it can handle ics 3.6 really well

Exactly, if they put all of there latest and greatest on here, what would be the point of going out to get a new phone?

Hi all,

i want recorder every incomeing call, but with normal market app the sound is disturbed, because the app recorded the call from the microphone of the smartphone!

How can i record the incomeing call directly from the speaker?:(
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] demkantor:
i think some miui roms have that feature built in. not sure if its any better though
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Spastic909:
From my experience call recorder on miui only records your voice when not on speaker..kinda dumb.

There is a mod here somewhere but its specific..not sure if cm7 or sense. Scroll down the threads in this section or use search
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
Probably due to legal reasons. I think in a lot of places, its illegal to record a phone conversation, if the other party is not aware they are being recorded.

I'm looking for the Crysis Battery Percentage for Samsung Galaxy SII LTE (Rogers Skyrocket SGH-I727R). I have a stock rom with dagkernel 0.43pre2. I'm trying to stay as close to stock as possible as I use my phone for work and need my phone, email, sms etc. But I really don't want the bloatware associated with Rogers.

Question:

Would I have a problem going with RC7 and the RC7.4 update? Since there is much experience here I appreciate the advice.

Again, I need WiFi, GPS, phone, mms, sms, and of course email.

Sorry for all the questions, but just need a stable platform without the carrier garbage. I have "Frozen" the apps using Titanium Pro that I know I don't need, but I'm sure that that doesn't speed things up much if at all. Plus the stock launcher sucks as you cannot change the dock apps so I've gone with go launcher ex, but I'm sure although awesome, it bogs everything down.

Thanks again!

LOL yeah! I sat there the other day looking at my phone and wondering if I should apply the new roms and after some thought decided to go for it. Then, my phone froze up and then it looped after applying roms, kernels etc. and finally, I figured out how to put it into download mode and put it back to stock.

I'm really wanting ICS in the stock version for my phone with an overclock kernel and of course all the mms, sms, email apns etc. and a crysis type of battery icon. Perhaps that's why it seems that this RC6 or RC7 is intriguing to me.

I'll give that RC6 a try.

If you think that the TPC V3 is the best way to go for now, please let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
honestly skyics is very stable, ALOT of forum users use it. I however stick to tpc, as it a) is the only rom with a rogers framework specific build, and b) never experienced SOD's with earlier kernels = super stable. That being said, we didn't have mhx or silver deving at the time, and I've heard there roms are good too.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
First off, I think it's an awesome tablet, nice screen, damn quick, and custom rom running, it's great BUT as we know wifi/gps issues. I'm not jumping ship to the iPad because personally I think i'll probably end drowning than be saved, but let's not turn into ipad vs prime and whatnot.

I pretty much have 1 day left to return the prime to the store and I'm not 100% sure what to do, although I feel like I'll probably end up sticking with it as I'm not entirely convinced the TF700 will be that huge of a difference.

GPS: Nonexistent, couldn't get a lock at all:

Bluetooth: I tried sending some photos from my nexus while streaming pandora on the prime and it seemed ok but when accessing a page on tapatalk it felt like it was slower. I don't have a bluetooth mouse, or headset to test it better.

WiFi

I'm not exactly sure if my tablet is suffering from the WiFi weakness.

Here is the scenario:

I have two ap's at home on 2 different channels. One on first floor and one in basement.

I was pretty much right in the middle of them and I ran WiFi analyzer on both my galaxy nexus and the prime and to my surprise both had very similar dbm and both had very similar speed test results.

My galaxy nexus was averaging at about -80 dbm

My prime was averaging at about -70 dbm or so.....

My laptop was no surprise better.

BUT at work:

I'm using a tenants AP, it's a bit strange. (I work as security and yes they gave me permission and the key to use it)

Galaxy Nexus will average at about -89 dbm and it will have enough WiFi bars showing in blue and i will be able to use the connection and browse around.

Prime will average at about -80 dbm but it will not catch a connection for me to browse, the first and/or second bar will either stay gray or it will just drop the connection completely.

Meanwhile my laptop is fine. There is an occasional drop of connection on both nexus and laptop but I feel like the AP is to blame.

But then why isn't the prime getting a lock enough for me to browse even though dbm is better?

Any ideas? Is this a keeper?

Down the road I'm planning to get a dock for it aswell but not sure any issue would really affect my experience there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Just return it if you are unsure then if you have regrets you can buy another :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
Return it! This thing is just a ticking time bomb, and all Asus does is say hang in there, a fix is coming, meanwhile your 30 days are up in smoke and you have no choice but to keep it.

I wouldn't feel this way if the first Prime I bought didn't have a washed out screen along with all the other defects. Upon contacting Asus they basically told me to return it, so I did. I got a C2O model, champaign color, 64gb. It had gorgeous, vibrant colors, no light bleed, GPS that worked somewhat, wifi that was acceptable but still had the wifi/bluetooth problem.

Eight days later I was at a Chicago Rush game so my daughter could get her Spirit award for cheer. I was sitting in my seat, wiped my screen off because I wanted to record the event and noticed when the light shined on my screen what looked like very fine scratches on the black bezel. Upon further examination I noticed if I rotated my prime the scratches had a rainbow effect. In my head I went OH NO!, I am a jeweler and know what rainbow flash means, stress cracks.

This occurs all the time in gemstones, they get stressed during cutting or mining and the stress can get much worse or break, and thats whats happening to a lot of peoples Primes, while docked. Stress is causing their screens to break, which Asus chalks up to user abuse, BS. I treat my "Toys" with care, I don't have a lot of money to blow on thi stuff so it needs to last. I sold my First gen Ipad a month ago to help pay for this thing.

Good luck in whatever you decide, I know I loved my Prime but, man, I would be pissed at myself for seeing all the warning signs and not taking heed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
I'd return this one. Gary says something is coming in a couple of weeks....repair parts are arriving at ASUS....

I'd give ASUS about a month, first to see what the surprise is, and to give ASUS a chance to get any "changes" into inventory. Then buy your new one.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
If you saw nothing truly wrong with your unit just keep it. I've had mines since 12/22 and had no issues at all. One of the first ones. All it took was my 1 purchase to get a great unit. Nothing will be better on Android or comparable till around end of June at the earliest.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] h3ckman:
I have also had mine since christmas (BCOKAS serial) and honestly.. I have had nothing to complain about. It has gotten wifi everywhere I have wanted it to, the gps is there when I am outside (not that id ever use my tablet for gps), and the screen is b-e-a-utiful and SUPER bright. I bought the keyboard dock to go along with it, and the battery life is outstanding. I can use this baby all day and still have some battery life left when I go to bed.

In the end, though, it comes down to personal preference. ASUS has made a statement that there are repair parts coming... so worst comes to worse you can send it in to them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] WhateverGetsTheJobDone:
Return it.

Either for exchange where hopefully you will get an additional amount of time to play with it and decide, or for cash.

If for cash you may have to wait a while for another to show up if you decide you can't live without it, or you can buy something less stressful.

I have finally decided that without the right software and ability to take handwritten notes properly that I don't care how cool, amazing and sexy the hardware is (and oh boy is it gorgeous hardware, especially with (then without, then with, etc) the keyboard dock. It just doesn't work regarding my use cases and specific needs.

Damn shame.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
I can't say I didn't expect these responses. But ill admit it's a rough choice. If asus gets new parts I'm hoping they won't their customers in the dark.

I was quite shocked at the results from wifi range on phone and tablet and I think I'm kind of lucky.

Mine is a C10K serial. I'm not exactly how top notch the wifi is suppose to be so I don't have much to compare to but when comparing to my phone that gets great wifi reception, results are almost identical which simply makes me believe its fine.

If the screen cracks, well I bought warranty for a reason. Ultimate decision will probably be tomorrow morning and ill see how I feel when I pick it up
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
You're running a custom rom, so you unlocked the bootloader, voided warranty.

Are you sure returning the Prime is actually still an option?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
Let me ask you if they'll know or check :-D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tbns:
I never noticed a problem with the TFP WiFi when I had one. Granted, I wasn't comparing side by side with another device - I was just using the TFP, and WiFI signal never bothered me.

Totally ignoring the comparison with your Nexus, does the WiFi connection cause you trouble? If so, return it. If not, keep it and enjoy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
I've heard that the serial number is uploaded to them when you unlock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
Yea it is, but i registered it, and ended up not liking it later :p
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] h3ckman:
Not sure what you mean by this. When you unlock, your serial number gets marked in their system and your warranty is forever lost.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
The serial number is for that specific tablet. If i return it to the store, and the store accepts. It is no longer my concern as they accepted it in the way it was.

If i decided to get another one, new serial.

If i keep it and it gets damaged somehow, and i get warranty replacement = new serial.

see what i mean?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] h3ckman:
Oh yeah. For some reason I was thinking you would be sending it to ASUS. My apologies. Yeah, the store will have no idea. :p
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coderedpl:
Last day tomorrow.....I still don't know, was on hold for 30 minutes with asus and nobody ever answered, will try again tomorrow.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drvsbsm:
I finally got one on number 6 that gets good WiFi I'm not letting this go but Bluetooth does drop WiFi down from 18mb/s same room as router Bluetooth takes it down to 3-4mb/s. So I go from 18mb/s down to 3 or 4mb/s with Bluetooth. I don't use Bluetooth that much though.
[HTC EVO 3D] PlayStationHidden:
Hi all

From what i see in the Sensation forums, you have to 'upgrade firmware' in order to install ICS even on a completelt s-off'd and rooted phone. This doesnt make sense to me because youre installing a custom OS which has nothing to do with the official stuff. Anyway the real point.. do we as evo 3d users (gsm) have to go thru the same hastle when ics comes out, and is it a one time thing or you have to di it everytime before flashing a new rom? Man i have no idea how to flash stuff from bootloader or whatever so im nervous about this, im s-off tho

Thanks, expert advice would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Firmware has to be updated to work with ICS kernel (3.x), I believe if you can use a 2.x kernel, no firmware change is necessary.
[HTC EVO 3D] PlayStationHidden:
Sounds fair enough.. but i tried virtious rom with ics and sense 3.6 on my 3d,didnt upgrade or anything but it installed perfectly. Secondly, how is this update carried out exactly? Do i only have to do it once or everytimei get a new ics rom?
