I have to agree with this! I've been on blogs/newsgroups etc. since the days of when AOL was the only internet provider and dial-up. I've never heard that "necroing" a thread as being bad etiquette. I think some people have become too dramatic about others' postings. There's annoying things that people do without meaning harm or hurting anyone every day. One must learn to be strong and thick-skinned to see past the drama and get over it!

I for one am curious about the type of glue in case I run into this problem, or can be used for another application.

Hey, you may mount your phone and put the custom ROM to the new drive appear at your computer. Then you may flash the custom ROM from it.

if your dont like to lose your stock ROM for a reason, just download the RUU stock ROM related to your area which you bought the phone from..!!

you may find the shipped ROM (RUU) from this link

Hi there, well you did right to upgrate your x10 mini pro with ginger... i used stock rom for 1 day and i just drop it.

well both sides(stock and custom rom) dosen't have zoom, it has to do with the device. anyway you can install some apps from market for that job but you will get poor image quality
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] demoniacs:
no zoom function (damn SE) but as giannhs_n said, there are apps that could magnify camera focus that would sort of make you zoom in.

Hi,

I have got the best ever battery timing on my Galaxy W. Currently I am not rooted so no under clocking. I am using the stock ROM. I got more than 4 days of single full recharge.

I think picture says all.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 2g11:
Can you please explain a little further...what else have you done?Thanks

Sent from my Wonder
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] alidsd:
Its just an unrooted Asian stock ROM ( JP). I tried almost every stock ROM but found this one very good for battery.

I thing important here that I calibrated the battery in the usual way common to all android set.

Its still remaining 20% so the total time would be about 4.5 days, and its good enough for me.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] toroloco73:
it's seems that you don't call anyone
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] alidsd:
voice calls are 10% in 4 days , so you can not say that I don't call :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] yewsiong:
How about wifi, data network, bluetooth, gaming? these are the most power consuming events.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] alidsd:
Off-course they are very little in my case. Actually I was in the search of best ROM (specially region specific base-band/radio) that conserve very little power and this Rom meets my requirements.

Games will be taking his own battery share if played. But at least the base-band/radio is not eating up the battery and that was my point.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] yewsiong:
haha~actually the base-band doesnt affect so much. If u keep ur phone within those "strong" signal coverage region (not rural areas or basement), the power consumption will be lesser.

Theoretically, our phone is able to give u 17-18 hrs for 2G call assuming u use pure stock rom w/o additional apps installed.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] alidsd:
Well in my experience I have seen different power consumption pattern on different radios/basebands' specially in htc sets.I also observed heat and power consumption on different radios while the signal level is constant. And I noticed it was the same case with Sammy. I tried different regions stock Rom and found the Asian one bes for power consumption.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Fensterbank:
why does the asian stock rom has the best battery power? where is the difference between an europe stock rom?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] alidsd:
I don't know the exact difference that whether its in baseband or kernel.

Any developer should explain that what is the difference between Asian and European Roms except the CSC.

Thanks

i think what i need is a complete odin install... back to stock for wifi

Been running ICS M4 just fine for a while, I did an app update in market and it crashed. rebooted and it freezes on Kang logo. I have done every wipe I can in CWM and I get no where.

Doing 'fix permissions' or factory wipe, neither one will finish, factory will not finish ad just reboot on its own.

i tired installing a diff ROM or two that i have on it already, same thing, freezes on boot animations.

I cant find a COMPLETE odin install.... open to any help and thanks for your time.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foliage green:
http://www.sammobile.com/

they have all the stock odin flashable firmwares available for download there.

oh and if you get stuck at a boot logo loop after stock rom flash, do a factory restore and clear cache using the stock recovery (it happened to me). you can then start over with the root/cwm/custom rom process if you want.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShannonPricePhoto:
did that, thanks... after odin finished it reboots. says:

# maunal mode #

---Updating Aplications ---

copying ' XAB ' apk

copying common Apks.

holds there for 10 seconds and reboots right back to that as i typed.

If i boot into recovery, as soon as i click the icon to actually goto recovery it reboots to what I typed above.

I have also reflashed cwm recovery and can get to recovery then flash a rom, but it still freezes during boot animations.... ugh.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShannonPricePhoto:
I fixed it! I used the overcome guide here...

the prob with samobile file was there was no PIT. once I got that out of the overcome DL It was ok and booted just like the guide said... from there i reflashed CWM recovery.tar. since I could boot in to HC I could transfer a new aokp ICS rom and all is good :)

I really don't text much right now I pay 5 bucks for 200 text. But when I upgrade soon it seems I'll have a choice between $20/month for unlimited text or .20 cent for every text. Just wondering if Google voice is a better alternative.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaNaRkI:
gVoice does not work that way! A call is still a call, why go through the extra effort to make something VoIP when the current system for wireless audio transmission works very well. Google is never going to make the Android app do VoIP.

Also gVoice does not support MMS, thanks to social media sites/apps and web browers on the phone, there is no reason for gVoice to support them. Again another system exists that does a better job. The purpose to gVoice is not to bypass the services that wireless providers offer, it is to make managing multiple numbers an easier process (just as the video says). One other thing is that gVoice does not work with other text servers, only actual phone numbers. So no texting "LOL" to 12345 to vote for something on TV.

As to "how exactly" it works. Simply put gVoice is a redirection service.

They give you a what is essentially a mobile number that you hand out to whomever you wish, then you tell gVoice what numbers you want it to contact when it's number is called or gets a text. With the app it automaticaly adds your cell number to the list.

A call works like this: Person A dials the gVoice number, a computer answers and calls you, you answer and person A is forwarded to you. The exact opposite is true for the other direction. You > computer > person & forwards. If you watched the video explaining gVoice then you'll see that you can have gVoice dial multiple numbers at once on in-coming calls.

A text works like this: Person A sends a text to the gVoice number, a computer receives the text. At this point, it can either send you a text acting exactly the same as a call, or you can have it do nothing and rely on the app to let you know a text was sent to gVoice. Sending a text via the app is just like posting something via twitter or such except that instead of it going to a web site it goes to a computer that sends a text back to Person A. gVoice will figure out how to break up the message on its own for the size limit of a text, if sending to another gVoice number it sends the whole message and one piece.

If you want more exact then that you'll have to ask Google.

Now, due to the nature of the system there are a lot of neat/useful/mean things you can do. you can have gVoice block numbers instead of relying on the carrier. you can have all calls from one grouping of people get redirected to a specific number (to only your cell, or only to home,maybe even to one that is not actually yours ;) ). you can set up some groups to be forwarded immediately, and others be given a prompt (your end) to screen their calls. you can save yourself from needing text messaging by relying on the app. you can give specific groups a different recording that they hear when they call and have to leave a message (if you use gVoice as your voicemail). Or you can do like me, and give some people the gVoice number and others only the cell number, so that if I ever have a reason to change the cell number the gVoice users are none the wiser.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKCHYLDX101:
I guess the best thing to do is give it a try. If its doesn't work the way I need it to I'll guess I'll have to choose the unlimited text plan. Thanks for the info.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
For what it's worth, i have the $5 / 200 text plan + Google voice. I use the AT&T mms on the 200 texts and Google voice for everything else. It works great for me because i can send text messages from my browser when i can't use my phone (plus i type faster on a full keyboard), and i don't have to worry about overages. I don't call that much, so minutes aren't an issue.

I liked that voice let he pick a number that made sense to me.

Also, if someone sends an mms to your Google voice number, you can have it set up to go to your gmail.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrsmega:
I use Google voice as a separate thing. I have a tmobile pay as you go plan on my captivate. As long as I have wifi. I get free texting through Google voice. Note, you get a separate number assigned by area. Porting your own number costs 20 bucks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrick8996:
I use Google voice to call people so they don't get my actual number, I also text on it, but you can't receive mms which sucks, but you can use Google Voice And Textfree for mms

Hi,

I'm abit concerned about my shiny new One X, I've been following the posts on here and there is a lot of negativity about the phone...especially the Grey version which was apperently made in China and not Taiwan??!

I'm tied into this device for the next 2 years, I can live with the odd software glitch but I am majorly concerned about the hardware, overheating with flashing lights? This doesn't sound fixable with a software patch...

If there is an inherent hardware problem what are our rights? Demand a refund??!

I'm trying to ignore the negativity as there are some kneejerk reactions but its hard too!
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
Hi Mate,

I'm not a developer but as far as I know the overheat could be kernel / baseband related because when I was using Xperia Arc one specific OTA caused my device to overheat very much apparently caused Kernel and the next update fixed it. Oddly it only happened to couple of devices. I hardly think it's a Hardware related problem. Let's says the worst case if it;s hardware i'm sure HTC will replace our device. They won't abandon their flagship model.

Most the the times early build will have bugs which will resolve in future releases because they can't really do all the testing so bugs will come out in different enviornment and different condition. Apparently Transformer Prime had similar issues when it came out and now all the bugs are fixed. IMO you don't have to worry about it let's be patient and wait for HTC to release the update. ;)

I've got a grey One X NO hardware issues atall. im hard pushed to say that there are any software glitches either... perhaps the zoom on browser is a little laggy but that can be turned off. and im sure it will be corrected in an OTA.

as for the "rattle" it is just the volume rocker hitting against the uni-body.... very very quiet and u have to shake it quite violently. it is simply NOT a problem.

You can replace easily if you know how. Otherwise you can easily damage the screen (I speak from experience).

If i had to change the display, I would have changed everything, because do not know how to separate the glass from the screen, perhaps with hot air, I guess ...

Buy the phone locally id say in case you need to send it back for a quick turn around.

Sony says it's heat related, I've tested my phone trying to get high temps, it reached 42 deg and I was testing for what seemed like few hrs running benchmarks and playing a 1080p video continuously, i don't think ppl would normally do this but i couldn't recreate the yellow tint issue with mine luckily.

I'm not sure what other ppl are doing with their phones, maybe leaving it direct sun for extended periods, like on a car seat or dash.

it's a placebo! If not, then I'm going to explain to myself that it is the different viewing angle looking at the dead center screen and looking at the edge of the screen...

But if those pictures are what the yellow tint looks like, them we've got nothing to worry about for our phones :)

Best way that I have found to totally see it, is to use a pure white background. I usualy go to Google book and open a free file and they have good white background to see the yellow tint.
