[Nexus S Accessories] ljordan2:
I use Bose IE2 and it is really good except for one thing, price. It seems to be too expensive. It sure has a quality that matches it's price but it may be too expensive for most people.
[Nexus S Accessories] sonnysekhon:
Klipsch Promedia can be had for under $40 if you check Slickdeals, etc.

Got mine on sale from Tigerdirect a while ago for $25.

They are relatively unknown which is a shame because they are the exact same thing as the more popular and expensive, S4/S4i model. They use the same drivers.

For the price you can't do better.

If you are willing to go over the ear route, Koss Portapros are the budget cans to get.

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigacross:
Hi to all XDA members.

I've scoured across the internet everything I could find about modems and firmwares and which version works for Optus and so on but to no avail so I'm finally asking for some help.

I have problems maintaining 3G network and I've tried limiting the network to 3G network only using "extended controls", sometimes it works, but when there's no 3G available in the area, I wouldn't even be able to connect to the normal mobile network.

Sometimes I would get H+ / 3G signal outside of a building but when I enter it, it will reduce to EDGE and I cannot get my 3G at all, other Optus users maintain their 3G network.

If anyone knows of a solution, please tell me.

Thanks in Advance!

Hi everybody,

I really love the capacity to shutdown or reboot from an app, without playing with the upper button of the TFP.

As the application Quick Boot does shut down very brutally (really quick) the prime (shutdown or reboot option), do you think it can break something if daily used ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
I've personally been using a quick shutdown widget for at least a month and haven't seen any negative effects. I will say, however, that I make sure that I'm not in the middle of anything when I do it.

Hi everybody,

Thanks for your answers, i'll stay safe like soulctcher said, be sure nothing is working on background while quick rebooting/shutdown.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silare:
From what I've read and tested so far, only CM9 (Team Hacksung) and ICS Passion have a working DSPManager. ICS Euphoria, ICZen, Codename Android, and AOKP don't have a working DSPManager (I've tried the patch with ICZen, but no good on my end -- it has DSPManager, but it doesn't actually work).

Is what I've said so far correct? And has anyone had success with ICZen and DSPManager (or AOKP/Euphoria)? Thankies.

HI , i am using galaxy mini ICS CM9 Beta3, can i use odin instant install back my gingerbread 2.3.6 ?:confused: .....my beta3 rom is not working the USB storage,but i test boot my phone to downloading mode and open ODIN,it is connect to my phone. i am confused,someone can help me :)
[General Questions and Answers] gritchie:
if you want to go back to your previous rom, you should have backed it up using clockworkmod.

if you didn't, I suggest you install it (if you have root, you can install the rom manager application to do that for you)

Regarding Odin, you can use it to restore to your previous version, if you have the rom on your computer. As usual, you will loose all your user data.
[General Questions and Answers] Adripeg:
In Galaxy Mini, to use that program is to have a hard brick, so don't install that. Rom manager is not compatible with our device.

I think if you make a nandroid and flash the rom through CWM after the wipes, you won't have any problem, but it will be better if someone gives more opinions, just in case.

[General Questions and Answers] AndroidUser99:
I installed my clockworkmod on my phone , how to back my previous ROM ? How should i do??
[General Questions and Answers] gritchie:
To be clear, you CANNOT go back to your existing rom through clockworkmod if you didn't back it up first.

Since you didn't, your only chance now is to flash the original firmware. If you don't have the firmware file on your computer, you're going to have to obtain it somehow. I recommend your mobile operator, and google if that fails.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatWhatInTheButt:
This method will install the original software on your X8!

If you have Sony PC Companion 2.1 on your PC, then uninstall it, and download and install Sony PC Companion 2.1, again! If not, then PC Companion might not recognize your phone. After installing do the following:

- Turn off the phone, and unplug it from the PC

- Turn on Sony PC Companion on your PC

- In PC Companion, enter the Support Zone tab

- Go to Update Phone Software

A window will pop out, saying that it cannot find your phone

- Click on Fix Phone

- Click on Continue

A window will pop out, saying that you will lose all your data

- TICK the BOX

- Click on continue

An update process will began.

Wait for it to show a window with all the SONY mobile phones

- Find your phone (X8)

- Click on the phone.

Now all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions. It will tell you to hold the back button and plug your turned-off X8 to the PC, then it will erase everything, and download the original 2.1 ROM to your X8.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastman47:

It doesn't work it says that Pc companion was not able to connect to the device. I tried many things bu pc companion just cant connect my phone and windows keep saying that error that i am plugging unknown device which is a bull**** the day before it was working fine...

For all people who didnt understand iCANT ENTER IN FLASH MODE I MEAN I CAN BUT ITS NOT RECOGNISED so i cant update my software.

Hey there, my phone isn't bricked...but I think I have too much data (possibly conflicting roms installed at the same time??) and I wish to reset my phone to its original status... I wish to re-install a ROM on it, but I want to start fresh again by removing the rooting programs or what have you..

Would following these steps put it all back to its original setting, also meaning that I could completely wipe the SD clean?

If so, would this mean I would have to re-root my X8? Not that it would be a problem but I would just like to know if it would be needed!

Thanks!

Regards,

Nev51289
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastman47:
yes

Yes do as the guy above said...No need to root your phone
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nev51289:
Sorry, just to clarify - you mean I wouldn't need to go through the whole rooting process again after doing a full reset/wipe what have you? Thanks by the way
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastman47:
lol

if you want to restore the stock rom (original androdi on xperia x8) with pc Comapnion than you dont need to root it again. But if you want to change it to custom rom and you have done full wipe i think you should root it again (rooting is done so taht you can change the busybox version of the phone and upload xrecovery if you have those you don't need to root)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saintckk:
Why don't you download the store Rom annd use Flashtool to flash it? Then you may be able to upgrade to latest revision with PCC.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] just kidding:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatWhatInTheButt:
Yeah, I lost you somewhere... If after taking out the battery, you CAN NOT enter xrecovery or CWM, then, you either can try THIS THREAD <--- go on, click on it!, or, you have to do what I had to do a couple of times, which is to restore your X8 to its original state, and to do that with Sony PC Companion, you first have to UNINSTALL your current PC Companion!!! THEN, restart your PC, and install a clean version of

Sony PC Companion 2.1!

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION of PC Companion, YOU STILL HAVE TO UNINSTALL IT, AND INSTALL IT AGAIN!!! IF YOU DON'T, THERE's a 99% CHANCE THAT PC COMPANION WILL NOT RECOGNIZE YOUR PHONE!!! ...I don't know why, but it's probably some marketing trick, since I once used this method 3 times in a row, then the fourth time PC Companion didn't recognize my X8. This happened on both, the old PC Companion, and the current Sony version 2.1. I tested them both on purpose, to eliminate the possibility that I damaged my X8's hardware somehow, during a high speed impact collision with the bedroom wall... :)

Once you reinstall Sony PC Companion 2.1, go back to my first post to your problem, and follow it step-by-step.

AND yes, if you want to install custom ROM's again, then you will have to ROOT your phone again, and UNLOCK the BOOTLOADER, etc... :(

BUT, if it's a soft-brick, then you might be able to redeem yourself :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
LED lights have been designed to run for thousands, if not, tens of thousands of hours under regular temperatures. There should be no reason to worry.

The vibrator should last longer than you'll have your phone, but like anything, it could "go" for any reason at any time.

Hi,

I have two children & I tend to use my phone as a camera often. I guess I am not picky & it takes really good shots for what it is. There is very little blurring & the photos look nice for email pics.

So I want to try CM9 or AOKP & I believe that currently there is no camcorder/video which I am OK with. How is the quality of the photos? I seem to remember reading that the camera images for some reason arent as nice as with a stock based TW rom.

Is that true? Is the camera a piece of hardware & there is no software to enhance it? Ultimately are images without any editing nicer on a TW rom vs AOSP?

Thanks,

Rich

Hello,

I've purchased the Yarvik TAB450 2 weeks ago, used (6 weeks old) and I now know why the seller sold it.

It's slow, it's not efficiently installed (5.6 GB free, but I'm unable to install apps), move to sd of apps breaks them, Android is outdated (2.3.3) and not all apps run on it. (at least firefox and age of wind crash)

Lots of reasons to ditch it again, but one to keep it. I haven't found a custom rom for it and I'm curious if I can build one for the tab. (as the specs show more then enough promise and I haven't build anything for a while)

I would like to build an environment which I can use for something else then a glorified ebook reader. However I haven't found any manuals for a general rom build. How to proceed?

I would guess the following steps are needed:

Install sdk (done)

Install other stuff (what?)

Get source (have to locate it)

Determine hardware used in tab. (how?)

Build rom

Test in emulator (is there one?)

Install on tab

Have fun

This is very general, I know, but details will be added later. (when I have them ;) )

The questions I hope to have found the answer of soon are:

How to setup a build environment in Debian

How to determine the hardware in the tab

How to safe the current rom (it's rubbish, but at least it'll let you read ebooks ;) )

Is it possible to boot an image from the sd (of USB stick) to test it

The last 2 points are to prevent destroying the tab while testing, as the manufacturer doesn't have an image, 'as it's in rom'. (which is altered when trying to root it, as I've discovered lately)

I haven't got a clue what I'm getting into, but I hope to get a useful tab out of it. (or the tab dies trying :D) I hope to prevent the latter, but when that's not possible, it'll be sacrificed to science.
