[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] LBN1:
Hi All,

I am considering the differences in getting the wi-fi Tab 8.9, versus the LTE tab 8.9. My understanding is wi-fi Tab has Tegra2 at 1ghz, and LTE Tab has a Snapdragon3 at 1.5ghz and a Sim card slot, but are otherwise identical. I would be using it only on wi-fi. My inclination is to get the LTE Tab, because it seems the processor may be slightly better.

Thoughts from those who own either one, would you have preferred getting the other?

Also, anyone have personal insight on comparing your 8.9 Tab, to the Sony S Tablet?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] qhinton:
Well I have had just about every tab. If playing video is important get the LTE the processor can handle just about anything. Tegra struggles with some 720p. I have a 8.9 and 7.0 PLUS. The 7.0 has the exnoys processor and doesn't hesitate to play any video. However for gaming get the Tegra because most of the good games are optimized for it and they don't play on the enxyos
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] KitF:
Having had both, I'd say they both have their faults and plusses. I actually use the 4G, so that is the reason I switched to the LTE. But I'd go for the LTE for the Snapdragon, as the Tegra 2 is rapidly showing its age.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] LBN1:
Appreciate the responses, confirms what I was thinking.

The new Sweep Panorama sucks big time indeed. There's a modified APK of the beta floating around, I've been using it on my Arc S/Neo for ages, works just fine!

Don't have my S yet, so can't try it, but you can give it a go:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] maistora:
Thanks a lot - this is the same Panorama 'Beta' I loved on my X10, works well on the X-S. I'll now use it as main pano tool and hope Sony will fix their in-camera version with one of the firmware updates.

Not sure if they read (or at least scour with spider-bots) this and similar sites for insight what needs fixing - if I knew a contact point I'd write to them but won't spend time researching their feedback channels...

The S camera rocks otherwise, wish you to get yours soon!

Hello.

I get my first Android device, HTC Desire S from CZ Vodafone. I want to flash to clear Android (i have experiences only with Windows Mobile ROM flashing and unlocking). But the problem is, i absolutely cannot find good guide how to flash. I tested flashing with ZIPped ROM file on the memory card, but phone dont show it in Power + VolUp. My bootloader is HBOOT S-ON 2.00.0002.

Thank all!

You would've found a guide to do pretty much everything on your Desire S. The first link shows the method of unlocking through htc-dev, however, you can also downgrade your h-boot which although some find harder than htc-dev, i believe it is the better option. You'll find a guide for that in the thread above as well, believe it or not.

I have put AOKP_p4wifi_milestone-4 on my 10.1 Galaxy Tab and everything is working except for the camera as expected. As part of getting my apps back i need the Amazon market app but after I install it I cannot log in to the market. I verified that the id and password is correct and I was wondering if this is a known problem?

I keep getting an error saying 'There was a temporary error signing you in. Please try again in a few moments'. Has anyone else seen this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
never seen that. I've been on ICS for over 2 weeks and use amazon store daily.

I think it's time we have some type of database of benchmarks for microSDHC cards on our Sensations. Sure... it's easy to find some online for certain cards but some people put them in adapters, USB 3.0 readers, different phones, etc. This list will hopefully be specific for our Sensations.

I'll enter this soon, but it appears that the older 8GB microsdhc cards are pretty quick. It's that they began to slow down as they became larger. It would be interesting to see how 16gb and other 32gb cards do.

It also appears that the smaller cluster sizes benchmarked better than the larger cluster sizes... i'm not sure what's the benefit of larger cluster sizes then...

Only thing that kinda troubles me is the big discrepancy between testing the Samsung 32GB class 10 32k microsdhc on WinXPx32 and Win7x64. Not sure why this is the case.

ymirsson, I think that tweak is good for SD Tools and general Android things. ARHD is set at 1024. I'm not certain how much this would mask an insufficient card at something like recording 40 mbps video. You should check to see what AOKP b29 has it set at.

CDM can test the card pre-tweaks.

Edit : ure right , sorry :-D, it is normal Samsung 16 Gb @ class 4 :-)
[HTC Sensation] totalundone:
Now worries. The manufacturer should be printed on the card itself... just make sure to update your post the next time you open it up :D

Any idea on how full your card is? the amount of free space definitely effects speeds.

4.6 write... you should be able to record video at 20 mbps with the camera mod but it will probably stutter if you tried the ultra camera mod (40 mbps)
[HTC Sensation] lollaz:
Thanks for answer :-D Big problem was i never never never turn off my mobile, didnt know about the brand!

Well the usage is 14 Gb free space..

After reading this thread i'm Now buyn a new sd, Samsung 16 Gb class 10 with yellow Tag, as i can read on Samsung website is a new sd one, Hope is ok like i saw on ur bench :-)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelloguy:
I have searched for this issue and there are TONNES of threads about it and a lot of proposed solutions but none of them work for me. I have been using this HTC Incredible for some three months now and have gone through various ROM's including some Sense based, CM7, a couple ICS ROM's and MIUI. But every one of them gives me this problem with the wifi at work. The phones finds the network, connects to it, authenticates and then gets stuck at Obtaining IP Address... and then repeats the cycle.

I used to have an iPhone that worked well with the same wifi spot. My friend's Nexus running ICS connects just fine. But my phone exhibits this problem with this wifi spot and a bunch other public spots it has connected to before.

From reading various threads, it happens when Android remembers the last IP address it got at this spot and tries to assign itself that but fails. It does not learn to ask for a new one. Which is verified by the fact that assigning a static IP, then going back to dynamic IP address makes it refresh the IP request and work for a little bit. Then it goes to sleep and the same agonizing cycle starts again.

Is it because of the hardware? Is it because of the Kernel? Does anyone have a clue?

I have tried Wifi Fixer app and that didn't help. Another person has listed three other apps and how those did not work for him (so I didn't even try them).

At this point, this issue is so frustrating for me. Can anyone recommend some more ideas for me to try? Different ROM's, different kernels? Anyone? ANY one?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceayuso:
This happens to me intermittently when I come home. Multiple ROMs and kernels, no rhyme or reason. When I notice it, I restart the phone and have to turn WiFi back on. Then it works fine for a day or longer. I wonder if it's a bug that's triggered by background processes.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woznet:
I came across this possible fix while searching for something else. Wifi Won't Connect

Also, I would not be so quick to write off those other apps you mentioned, it is very possible that the person who said they did not work had something different that was causing the Wifi to not connect/obtain IP.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelloguy:
Thanks guys. I have installed a new Kernel and will try it as well as the above suggestions in the next couple of days and report back. Here are the suggestions made so far:

1. Turn wifi off. Restart the phone and turn wifi on.

2. wpa_supplicant renaming

3. Other wifi fixing apps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Have you tried forgeting the network in the wifi settings menu and then try connecting again?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelloguy:
Yes, I have tried forgetting and starting from scratch again. And with the new Kernel, it just doesn't connect at all. Gets stuck in the Getting IP address loop even for the very first time. I tried #1 but that didn't do anything. I cannot rename the wpa_supplicant because I don't have the USB cable with me and the ROM doesn't let me access the internal storage in ES Explorer. And since I can't get on the wifi, I can't try the other wifi fixing apps (#3).

If boot loaders are messed up, your phone won't boot up in the first place and give you a rainbow screen (colored lines all across the screen). From what you mentioned, its doesn't seem so. Its a normal issue due to some display drivers problem. Don't bother too much. Just turn the screen off and on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amiashu:
Hi everyone,

I have these 3 options to choose from

$529.99 from newegg.com with 3 months warranty (no manufacturer warranty) - till March 22nd

$530~ amazon.com with no warranty

$569.99 Expansys USA with 1 year manufacturer warranty

do you guys think i should worry about the manufacturer warranty? i have never had to use it for any smartphone in the past. also it might be an issue to get the additional ADH warranty from ensquared or squaretrade.

Can anyone of you confirm buying your nexus from newegg.com or amazon.com and still be able to get the additional ADH warranty from any of the above places?

(the servicenet warranty from newegg.com does not seem that good. so i am not interested in it that much)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lrs421:
Try Negri as well, very popular e-tailer. Paying a little more and having the manufacturers warranty is worth it IMO. Some will disagree but this is a $500+ phone, you be the judge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amiashu:
that's what is making the decision difficult. negri is selling it for $613.50 and they don't price match currently. I searched xda and found everyone mentioning that expansys and negri are both similar.

I was leaning towards expansys because of 1 year warranty also but i just wanted to know from someone who might have had to use that warranty to get better idea.

thanks for your input
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
At Negri you can just buy the CAN version. It's cheaper and you can flash it to yakju when you get it. There are no other differences. Just a thought if you're going to go with Negri. I bought that one and its great.

Have you tried ebay? There are vendors who are in Hong Kong that sells the Galaxy Nexus much cheaper than anywhere else right now. Their ratings are good and they claim to offer 12 month of warranty on their end.

I have searched endlessly for an answer to my question and maybe I am missing something, but my exchange email service is very flaky. I carry two phones (iPhone 4s - work ATT and the Note - personal ATT) and the Note will just stop getting my exchange emails throughout the day. I have tried everything. Currently I am Dag Overclocked Kernel and Saurom RC4a but I went back to stock rom, I exchanged for a new note, and every thing I do the system still fails to deliver mail consistently.

I dont have Juice Defender running, I have no peak scheduling set up, and all power savings are turned off. Does anybody have any ideas? Can it be an exchange server configuration? My iPhone always works, and this is driving me nuts.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayfrost:
We are using Exchange 2007, and we are in the process of migrating to the latest version. In the meantime, I installed Touchdown for Activesync on my Note, and it seems to be very consistent, in so much that it gets all my emails before any of my other devices, including my desktop at work!

I guess i will license a copy if it makes it through the week with no hiccups. Stupid that it cost 20 bucks to get my mail working correctly. I cant believe the default app on the Note cannot handle my work email needs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hausman:
Sounds like you are running an in-house mail server. I didn't ask which version of Exchange you were connecting to but specifically if you were using Microsoft-hosted Exchange as part of the Office 365 or Exchange Online program. They have a server redirection setup that some versions of the Android mail client do not understand, so when they change servers on you on the back end (which happens with alarming frequency) the Samsung mail client is unable to connect to the mail server. iOS devices know how to handle the internal redirection as do some versions of Android mail. But not the version on the AT&T Galaxy Note. ICS is rumored to fix this. Anyway, that's probably not your issue, but it is mine and my symptoms are identical.

I have Touchdown as well; it has a lot of features but I don't love the interface, and there's a lot to be said for having a single email client for multiple accounts. Default Android mail is woeful and has always been so IMHO. Have you looked at Enhanced Email? I would use that except it is very hard to deal with if you have many folders and you try to move messages from your inbox to your nested folders (I've submitted a feature request for them to handle that the way Touchdown does, but I don't think it's a high priority item for them because it's been missing for a long time).

Maybe you can troubleshoot with your Exchange admin when you fail to receive messages and they can look into debug logs.
