[Sony Tablet S] pokoedge:
Maybe you have a faulty tablet, because the Sony Tablet S is the fastest Tegra 2 tablet I've ever used, which includes Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Asus Eee Transformer.
[Sony Tablet S] Kermit33:
Those who complained about their tablet, just wonder if they ever read reviews and tried out the tablet before buying it?

I did some homework, tried it out myself before pulling the trigger abd now I'm a happy user:)

Here you can play with sample tablet in Sony Shop or retailers, isn't it the case in other countries?
[Sony Tablet S] robber:
Sometimes the UI can feel a bit sluggish (especailly with a lwp)

but this thing runs Modern Combat 3 like a champ, never even a hint slowness even with lots of on screen action. I dont think this is an inheritently slow tablet. People just judge speed on how quickly the tab can scroll through homescreens and them obsess over it which is kind of silly.
[Sony Tablet S] sservati:
I was one of the early adopters and got mine even one day before launch...so I just trusted my experience with Sony!

I have used Tab 10.1 and Prime and none of gave me a black screen when I used live wallpaper and closed a program and got back to home screen.

Also sudden browser closes and still WiFi that disconnects when I turn tablet off are not some thing you expect from Sony!
[Sony Tablet S] sebarkh:
What fw are you running?

I have no problems with the tablet. Not a single one. And I'm rather a hardcore user...
[Sony Tablet S] shuckle:
No problems here. Sony table S works quickly and smooth. Nothing ever fails.

Hard to understand those problems.
[Sony Tablet S] Mahaco:
You said your tablet is rooted you could try to use an CPU tuner? can not tell you if it works because i dont have problems with it, I even think the speed is faster then my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v also it is a known issue with the browser
[Sony Tablet S] sservati:
I haven't seen this jump out of browser on any other tablets I used, I don't know why you say know isuue!!!
[Sony Tablet S] DreadPirateDan:
My biggest problem is that it slid of my car bonnet when i was putting on my shoes. Now there is a little light leakage in the middle at the bottom of the screen. Not too bad though. Word is honeycomb itself has a bugged browser and all versions are vulnerable to it crashing/3rd party browsers also. I find that it only happens when you are jumping around link really fast, have a fair few tabs racking up or some flash content is going on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darren K:
Hi guys.

I want to get into rom flashing, but to be honest I find it rather confusing to say the least.

It would appear that ROM manager seems to be the easiest way to flash my phone correct?

Am I right in saying that all I need to do is download whichever rom I wish to install, rename it to "install .zip", put this file on the internal SD (not quite sure where exactly), then use ROM manager to flash, then it's done?

Is this the safest way of doing a flash?

Sorry for the noob questions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omarjivraj:
You shud read your previous post dude :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darren K:
Thanks mate. I did, but I'm interested in trying other roms other than 2.3.6.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talon26:
I thought ROM manager took all that out of it. All you need to do is make sure your on latest CWM (which is does for you before you can download, i believe) and then you pick your download. Once it finishes it asks you whether you want to install and it does it all for you...

There is no "safe" way to flash. Something can always go wrong. I advise you follow the directions on the threads of your chosen rom. That way you can learn of the current bugs, the best way to flash based on your current situation (GB, Stock, another ICS etc) and what you may need to do before hand e.g. wipe/factory reset

If you have any questions on a particular installation method search the forum and the thread. If you cant find it then ask within the thread of your chosen rom.

Usually if its another rom i believe the best thing to do is wipe/factory reset from recovery menu and then choose zip from sd card. (But you still shoud read the first 2 pages and last 3 pages of the thread) ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darren K:
What is the CWM, and why do I need that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talon26:
CWM = colockworkmod. Its basically the a new recovery menu that gives you more freedom to what you can do whilst in the menu. You have it on non-rooted devices (stock firmware/samsung firmware) but as i said it provides more freedom. I believe almost every rom uses a version of it, either adapted or not.

Im not sure you will be able to use ROM manager on a device that is not yet rooted (rooted means you have administrative privileges like in windows). You will need root access as you will be changing the system files which if done incorrectly will cause something to go wrong. Which is why you wish to use ROM manager. TBH is very hard to do something wrong with the SGS and not be able to come back from it to have a fully capable phone again.

Don't rush into anything though. Don't root or flash anything without knowing the risks and what could happen, and in-turn what needs to be done to correct it. If you know this then usually you will understand what went wrong and how to fix it.

Sorry for leaving all these long messages, just trying to be clear :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phiquantu:
I downloaded The Masters app and the Live coverage is so beautiful on the Galaxy Nexus HD screen!!! Anyone else also watch The Master golf tournament on this phone? I recommend download the official app on Google Market/Play. They've done a pretty good job on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
Wow they have that on the phone??

Will probably try it out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madaopul:
I was wandering if that app was even worth the download but now I will definitely check it out. Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] veve3:
Hello,

I have NeroDroid v6 and after apply this I have bad GPS signal on my phone.

For example in lift or underground station where before NeroDroid I had signal.

How I can solve this?

And next question when newer ROM will be finish how can I upgrade ROM with my currently data and system settings will preserve? (Only through Titanium Backup?)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tom Fagerland:
My SGS2 hasn't been able to sync with Google Calendar for a week now. The error I get is "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."

All other services sync fine, though. Email, Chrome Beta, Contacts and so on.

I've tried everything, deleted calendar data, deleted the actual calendar application, formatted with backup, and upgraded the ROM three times.

Any tips?
[Folio 100 General] dgotgame816:
Hey XDA tablet experts I was wondering if some 1 can direct me to how to root my Toshiba thrive Tablet and also build it to have 3.0 sense on it if that could be possible I do not like the honeycomb on it thanks alot
[Folio 100 General] painkiller_93:
search for "thrive forums" on google
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdubs628:
I like the functionality of the standard mouse pointer for the keyboard dock (the circle) except for the reverse swiping. I get that it's supposed to be how your finger interacts with the screen but I want it to swipe down when I do. Is there any way to change that?

Also if possible (and less important really) can I change the icon to the standard mouse pointer? I don't want to change the functionality which is what the ASUS Customized Settings does, I just want the icon to be different.

Thanks for any input!
[Blade General] Tusharkamath:
MY market doesnt seem to be working after flashing. Whenever i start a download, it automatically cancels by itself. Whats the problem? Please help me with a solution,
[Blade General] Hellz0wn:

try gapps from the above link...
[Blade General] Tusharkamath:
Isnt it for custom rom? I am on stock rom. Those custom rom ones will be odexed no?
[Blade General] Gokh:
You dont need gapps, gapps is for rom like cyanogen wich dont iclude any google service (sync, talk...)

Try uninstaling the market and reinstal it
[Blade General] Kannibalism:
i uninstall the market updates and then let the market update itself again to fix this problem
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Go to manage applications and clear data for market and Google service framework. Reboot.
[Blade General] N79:
Try this one, on my blade it worked well:
[Blade General] saaransh9:
He's on stock
[Blade General] stev007:
You said after flashing right??....

Did you change/modify your firmware using TPT before flashing??
[Blade General] N79:
Yeah:D

Maybe it shows you this message "this app can not be downloaded in your location"... try this free app:
[Blade General] Tusharkamath:
Nothing it shows. It just cancels the download automatically.
[Blade General] Tusharkamath:
I didnt get you. My phone got bricked. I used the guide in Modaco, i first flashed a swedish firmware and then Dell XCD 35 indian firmware.
[Blade General] sandeepkh:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TLGuard:
Are there any kernels or roms with BLN support at the moment? I've been looking around the ICS kernels and roms and I haven't seen any with BLN support, hopefully I didn't miss it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
I'm with you I'd like to have it but unfortunately until source is leaked we will only remain stock
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MNDaveC:
I have noticed recently (perhaps related to the .21 update?) that Google sky was not tracking well with my movements... so I tried 2 compass applications to validate the e-compass performance.

The compass behavior is really squirrely and seems to have very little correlation to which direction the tablet is pointed.

It seems that the compass must have worked better in the past as Google Sky used to work great.

Can anyone else report if their compass is working properly? What app did you use to verify it? What orientation did you hold your TFP to get a good result?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nategodin:
Mine has never worked correctly, and I've been trying off and on since I first got it in December, before any official ICS update was even released. I always assumed it was related to the poor GPS performance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diodato:
Exactly the same for me. And I have the (same) prime ever since December as well.

No change (for better or worse) with .21 or ... ever

It never worked reliably. I'm sorry but I am skeptical about your statement "worked great". Search this forum for my posts mentioning the e-compass as almost unusable.

I once had fun watching the compass readings constantly revolve, making full 360 deg sweeps in just a little over a minute (sic!). A recalibration brought back the unreliable, miserable readings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] astrodomine:
Yes this is a problem. But can be fixed by a simple step. Just move, rotate your tab in all directions (up down, left right and on its own AXIS)

This should fix the compass. In my case, thus would fix it but would revert back
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thenrz:
I also confirm twitchy e-compass... no new news here though, it is all related to our known problems.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] agzela:
Make sure you do not have mock locations enabled in the developer settings....This throws off the compass
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
google skymap sucks for me too. I'll double check to see if mock locations is on, I don't think it is, I've fiddled with all the skymap settings with no results.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] glazzi:
I have to calibrate my compass using GPS Status every time I want to use it. After that, it seems to work fine.

There seems to be a problem with keeping calibration settings for the compass after each reboot...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] robertg9:
These e-compasses do not use the magnetic field to give direction. They totally rely on GPS. GPS accuracy requires movement. The compass gets 2 (or more) readings, and then caculates the location and direction from them.

Even a good GPS device like Garmin, will have difficulty. If you are stationary, the gps reading will vary. The best accuracy for consumers is about 10 ft. If you had a test app, and were stationary....you would see that the individual gps readings are grouped in about a 10 ft radius from your position, with a few being outside that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diodato:
Please stop diffusing inaccurate information.

Prime is equipped with a physical magnetometer. PERIOD.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ForeignGadger:
You can try to recalibrate the compass by moving the device in a large figure of eight in a horizontal plane, outside and away from any ferrous metal.

Also, beware of any magnetic devices, fastenings or closures in protective cases you might buy. Don't park your Prime on a convenient HiFi loudspeaker top!

FG
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
The Prime's keyboard itself has a magnet in it, and I'd imagine the Prime does as well to register that field so that the screen shuts off when you close it.

But yes! Keep your Primes off of awesome speakers lol, as well as all your other precious electronics :D

I haven't actually played with the compass all that much as I've fretted over WiFi/BT and GPS. I know that my accelerometer consistently feels off: until I actually run tests on it. I think many of our issues (outside of the aluminum body and bad choice in wireless module) really are drivers and apps' implementations of h/w as opposed to the h/w itself.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] monkey10120:
I do not know why the hell you would post this. The meter does detect magnetic fields. Why do you think they call it an ecompass. Put a magnet close to it and open a compass app. Even your GPS explanation is horrible and incorrect.

sorry I just hate when people give out stupid info
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ParrSt:
Okay I have read this and tried on an android phone with no success. Just to clear things up, do I keep the prime oriented the same way through the figure eights or point it through, kinda like a kid playing with a toy car driving in a figure eight. Also do I keep the prime horizontal as well? sorry to sound like a dolt, but I can see many ways to do a figure eight with the prime. Your Horizontal plane was a help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ForeignGadger:
As far as I know, just keep the device pointing the same way and horizontal.

If your compass does not respond to this, I suggest it might be stuffed.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I tried to not start a new thread but ... I'm at a loss so here's the sitch..

I rooted, unlocked, and installed CWM using ViperMOD tool here

I got successful on upon running the program. Confirmed root, proceeded to unlock and install CWM. Like I said, the messages informed me of no errors and got successful. HOWEVER, when I power off the prime and attempt to button combo into recovery, the phone just boots up. I don't see text to even press the volume up button.. the only text I see is the asus kernel splash and boot ani..

I then went to RM and tried to flash CWM that way.. again i got successful but button combo's aren't working or I'm just not getting it right.. (thought, you should know I tried bout every damn combo I could think of, AFTER reading an trying what is suggested.) So then I tried rebooting into recovery via RM.. phone just reboots. I then tried installing touch recovery via RM.. got successful but again, no way to boot into recovery.

According to RM my current recovery is 5.8.x.x

I read another way to install CWM via BLOB, but I've also read installing anything BLOB after installing CWM will lead to a brick. Obviously I'm trying to avoid that. For the love Android, if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be really happy. :) Thank you!

*EDIT****UPDATE**

This is a little confusing as i just watched yet another how-to vid.. and this one showed booting into recovery from power on .. and I don't believe it but it worked. Finally saw the 3 text lines at the top when Asus spash showed up. I powered off the Prime and tried again.. no problems whatsoever.

I'm sorry for starting a new thread.. believe me, I started searching yesterday and gave up at 11:30 last night.. started my quest again this morning and no dice so I started a new thread. Again.. Jerdog, I'm sorry man. Ugh.. feeling pretty bad about this thread now. If it can be deleted, please do. Otherwise close.. :-\

I had the same issue with the TF101, TF201 is the same...POWER OFF completly, now POWER ON HOLDING POWER AND VOLUME DOWN until white writting comes up on TOP LEFT OF SCREEN, then let go of power and volume down and press VOLUME UP you should see "ENTERING RECOVERY IMG"

i did a quick vid and put on YOUTUBE for you check it out,

hope it helps
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Thanks dude.. Yeah, this was a stumper for me. As I did the button combo right, and maybe just maybe I let go too soon when seeing the asus screen, but I can tell you I tried endlessly last night and never saw the little text in the top left corner. Just watched zedo's vid and he started from power on.. so I tried, and it worked. Now i see the little text everytime I button combo..

Oh well.. really glad I got it figured out.. and thank you so much for the reply and help. Really! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] LNKNPRKFN:
I must have NVFlashed my TF101 100x cause i thought CWM didnt do on because i use quickboot and it didnt go to recovery and i didnt know how to get it there but then i figured it out, so since my prime is the same its GRAVY, at least you got it now!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beekay201:
food for thought: i have flashed my sgs and my maguro countless times both combined, and i never ever encountered such an error. Either adb reboot recovery, native rom option or if neither are available, button combo.

/offtopic: i'm eager to see what nvflash can do. definately more powerful than fastboot ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hxdrummerxc:
I got my GNex the day of release and since day one I have had a screen protector on it.

I used the cheap Verizon ones temporarily, and purchased an invisible shield about a week later.

I really like the invisible shield, its lasted me this whole time. From December to April with no issues. It was clean looking. It did have a little bit of the "orange peel" effect, but I didn't mind it.

But its starting to get a little bit worn, dirt starting collecting around the edges of the screen protector, and won't come out. Its also got little fine surface scratches from me cleaning the screen......

So my question is, who here is using their GNex Naked?

Im thinking about taking my invisible shield off now,

But im just worried that the glossy black front of the phone will start to get little fine surface scratches from pocketing/cleaning.

I know that the screens are not suppose to scratch easily, but its the little fine hair like scratches that appear over time from use / cleaning that bother me to no end.

Anyone using their GNex Naked care to chime in on how well the screen is holding up? How about the glossy black above and underneath the screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ray3andrei:
Nothing on my nexus just yet... I tried scratchingit with a key( don't do that) and not a single scratch.. I had a screen protector aswell but it seems to make blacks not so black..

Sent from my Gnex :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
Honestly, wouldn't risk it.

When you have that tiny grain of sand or something in your pocket and your phone is with it. That is just enough to scratch it and just make you OCD and annoyed with the screen because of that one scratch you always see.

Just put on a quality screen protector. I put an XO skins on mine and it's been good so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
I used it from half of January until now. Collected my fist scratch a week ago, even though I treat it with extreme care. It is not very visible but still. I would recommend one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
I would use a screen protector just to not take the risk of the screen getting scratched. Because if those tiny little scratches bother you, imagine what'll happen when you get a big scratch on your screen. You'll regret it. I, and many others here would recommend XO Skin's. It's a really good screen protector and I'd say give it a chance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evangelion01:
I've never put my phone into trouser pockets. It always goes into a suit jacket pocket on its own - without any other items in the pocket. Despite this, I have a curved scratch on the screen that becomes noticeable in bright environments.

So, if a scratch will bother you greatly, you'll definitely want a screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meti84:
I put protectors on all my phone's screens before use them. On my old iphone 3gs one from power support saved my glass from a 1.5 meters fall, protector broken but screen untouched.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hEaTLoE:
Ran mine about a week without one until my case and protector came in...was extremely careful and no scratches thankfully.

It's like having a home alarm system. No one gets them until their house has already been broken into. For how cheap they are...it's cheap insurance since it's much harder to repair a scratch than replace a screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neotekz:
if small scratches that can only be seen when the screen is off and clean bothers you then use a screen protector. The galaxy nexus's Oleophobic coating will get these tiny scratches without one. the screen feels much nicer without one, try it for a day when you plan to switch up the screen protectors and you will see what you are missing out on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chirea.mircea:
I peel mine off. Was too slippery, got easily scratched with microscratches, looked greasy. Bleh. The screen is great and durable, has that nice oleophobic coating; the glass is strong enough, a protector isn't needed anymore on phones for regular, they're not plastic screens.

Now if you work in construction or other particle heaven environment, by all means get a protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simer03:
Mines naked and I have zero scratches from slipping it in and out of my pocket! And trust me...I clean the screen and look under a light to check! Lol

Sent from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dexterslab:
Picked up 10 good protectors from ebay for like 5 quid.

Get greasy, wipe on your trousers, get scratched, put a new one on.

Cheaper than new glass, simple
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onthecouchagain:
Link? :)

I'm actually looking for a very basic, as-clear-as-possible, and non-water base screen protector. I hear the basic ones from Verizon do just fine (not anti-glare ones)? I may go with those.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zwitterion:
What exactly are you protecting the screen from? From looking bad? If isn't for resale value, then what on Earth justifies tainting the display of a phone's screen with a piece of plastic that worsens the clarity and collects dust, fingerprints and oil?

I'd spend the money on addressing the OCD. Just get the first scratch out of the way and be done with it. It's pretty liberating to not walk around as if you are babysitting fine china in your pocket.
