Agentcherry! Glad to see a familiar screen name! I don't know what's up with the site, but I'm working on getting a 32 gig from CL for around 200 as well. From what I have read, there isn't a difference between the 16 gig and 32 gig except the memory size.
[TouchPad General] AgentCherryColla:
That's good. I guess the 16G are all gone due to the fact there $100 more cheaper Xo saw some going for 120 on ebay. But I'd rather by it from a website I trust. I'm looking at a 32G TP for 260 on newegg.
[TouchPad General] sweetboy02125:
That is quite expensive. In my area. Ppl in CL selling brand new in box for $200 32G.

Sometimes they dropped to 180

[TouchPad General] dung8604:
Yeah, I'm about to buy a 32 gig with touchstone charging dock for 200.
[TouchPad General] AgentCherryColla:
What the cluck is CL? I feel like my Noob is showing hardcore :T
[TouchPad General] sweetboy02125:
CL is Craigslist.org. You are not in the US, aren't you? :)
[TouchPad General] AgentCherryColla:
Xo I just remembered XT God I buy so much stuff from there. I even got a free 55" Regiza HD TV once. But in my area you never see tablets. Then everbody who's selling is to far gas wise. So there no true cost savings.
[Acer Iconia A500] wrathx:
Hi all,

Been on the forums awhile for my HTC EVO 4G, so I know the routine :) I've searched this forum as well as others but had difficulty finding the answers I was looking for. I purchased an A500 on Friday and was hoping that I had quite the bargain, but was surprised at the problems that the device has had right out of the box with regards to scrolling and touchscreen responsiveness. Here's the breakdown.

Problem: It seems that anytime I need to scroll the interface, whether it's in the Browser (stock, Firefox, Dolphin all had the same problem), in drop-down dialog boxes, or even in Gallery or main home screen, scrolling is inconsistent at best, and at worst, completely unresponsive. However, in the case of Facebook or Browser, when the behavior begins, if I put the tablet to sleep and immediately bring it back up, scrolling works just as I would want/expect it to.

Caveats: There is an app that I have used, called "Fluid Monkey", that is basically just a fluid physics simulator (free on the Market). Similar scrolling gestures does NOT have inconsistent behavior, the screen and interface are very responsive, so to me it implies it's not a hardware issue.

Steps Taken So Far: I've successfully rooted the device, installed Thor's CWM, backed up the stock rom, and installed Icylicious, as it seemed to be one that was very obviously supported by CWM (I didn't want to go too far in modding it should I need to return it for a refund). While it does seem that there is a bit better overall performance, I am still experiencing the same interface issues. I have also tried the three touch sensitivity settings, but haven't noticed a difference. I have also found the following things to try:

Using V6 Supercharger Script (supposedly supports ALL devices);

A particular tweak to framework.jar that requires the use of baksmali

I guess the short of it is, has anyone else experienced this same problem right out of the box? Is there a simple fix for this? I really like the device, but it was the last one in stock (clearance as well), so I don't want to take it back if I can fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!! :)
[Acer Iconia A500] haag498:
I've had this problem before. The short answer is, it's probably a background process eating up CPU. Best idea to solve it is to do a clean install of your ROM (optimally one with as much as possible crap removed/deactivated, lightspeed is the extreme in that direction -- it is pretty much bare metal, though other custom ROMs are pretty good in that matter also and give a bit more user comfort), then install your apps, one at a time (or restore with TB), run the app, then see if the problem is there.

Another thing you can try is using one of the ICS custom ROMs (they won't screw up your bootloader, the original leak will) and see whether forced HW acceleration can do you any good...
[Acer Iconia A500] wrathx:
Thanks haag... I had done the clean install of Icylicious (the ICS rom) last night after a full backup/wipe. Even during the first set-up process of setting up the time zone, it took me five minutes to get the drop-down to scroll up to my proper timezone. This was before any extra apps were installed! :)

Despite my initial assessment, I am starting to feel that the device is unfortunately doomed on the hardware side. I hope there's more suggestions I can try today, otherwise it's going back to the store. :(
[Acer Iconia A500] wrathx:
I've seen many people here who are quite savvy with this little device, and I really don't want to return it if I can resolve the issue, but I'm running out of ideas... does anyone have any other ideas I can try, or is it an unfortunate lost cause? :(
[Acer Iconia A500] cruise350:
Try Flexreaper R11 you won't be disappointed. Sounds like you are on an older version of ICS that had alot of touchscreen problems. You want to make sure you are on 1.031 or newer version of the leaked ICS roms.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I Would probably advise flashing a 3.2.1 rom, like Honeylicous. I believe he has all the garbage pulled out. This will give you a good base idea if there is a defect with the tab.

In your case, before you go messing around installing any more of the ICS BETA roms, think about it for a minute. Because you'll need to flash bootloaders appropriate to the rom on a couple of them. And this will just be more headache when you discover you indeed have a hardware issue, and have to go back to stock to return it. Remember that the ICS builds, are all Beta.

Try Honeylicous, or any of the 3.2.x roms without a whole lot of mods to them. Make sure you do your wipes and formats properly, then check for the defects. You want to make sure all traces are removed from the previous rom.

There are actually some stock rooted roms available.
[Acer Iconia A500] wrathx:
I appreciate the suggestions! :) That was one of the reasons I chose Icylicious, it seemed to have fewer steps and requirements to install and mess with. I may try and backup my current set-up and load up Honeylicious and see if that helps.

Again, thanks all... I hope I don't have to reply further in this thread :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No Problem!

Just make sure you follow all the instructions as far as wipes and formats. And... make sure you have a good recovery backup.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gcq4nb:
So I've had my Amaze since January, and I started having speaker issues since two weeks ago. I submitted my phone to T-Mobile for a replacement (with a $20 fee of course which is ridiculous) and the replacement phone they sent me has the same exact issue.

Here are the symptoms:

Static and low volume even if it is turned up to the max. The static is random, and will come and go regardless to music source, volume, or location. I restarted my "new" phone and the issue went away but I am sure it will come back.

Anyone else with this issue?

Argh I could club a baby seal right now...
[HTC Amaze 4G] andy55:
I don't know if I'm reading it right, but you got a replacement, its doing the same thing, so you restarted it and its ok, but you think the problem will come back?

I havent' had issues with either of my amaze's, speaker has always been great on both
[HTC Amaze 4G] gcq4nb:
Yep I have the same issue with both Amaze's and it did come back when I listened to music again...-.-
[HTC Amaze 4G] JesseMT4G:
Strange it would happen on 2 different devices. I would throw a fit at T-Mobile for another replacement and tell them to take the 20 dollars and stick it where the sun don't shine.....

I never had to pay 20 for a replacement. Usually free 1st time, then 5.99 after. Been through a few BB 9700's, lol!
[HTC Amaze 4G] the show stopper:
if it is the ringtone issue then you can go to setting and uncheck turn volume down on pick up but if it is with music then i don't know. never had any problem like this on my amaze btw it is my 2nd amaze and i only paid 5-6 bucks for replacement not 20 like you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gcq4nb:
Are you guys with T-Mobile?
[HTC Amaze 4G] the show stopper:
yes i am with t-mobile.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gcq4nb:
Did you do it through insurance replacement? I think they only charge $5 if you pay the $7/month insurance plan
[HTC Amaze 4G] the show stopper:
no i have one year warranty on phone so it doesn't matter as long as your phone is under warranty you shouldn't pay no 20 bucks.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
would it be possible to add the installation of Swype custom keyboard into the kindle fire utility. I don't wish to permanently root my fire I just want the keyboard by temp rooting.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airmaxx23:
I don't know if any of the devs would be willing to do that since it's probably against Swype's Terms and Conditions.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
Maybe

What if the User would have to download it themselves and place it in an appropriate directory and the utility will just move it and give permissions? I don't think that would violate anything.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airmaxx23:
Why not just sign up for the beta and open the link that they email you on your Kindle then download it that way?

http://beta.swype.com/android/create/
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
Cant

it will not appear under input device on the kindle. Amazon locked it up I suppose.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_xerxes:
I still use Swype everyday on my Kindle Fire. 6.2.2
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
How did you go about that?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airmaxx23:
You need to be rooted to install it with the stock ROM.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
There be the problem

Well see that's the reason that i wrote this. I dont want to root. if they can put it into the kindled fire utility than it would make peoples lives easier. I along with many others do not want to root and I find no real need to for the kindle. only when a good ICS Rom comes out will I jump on it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airmaxx23:
Your reason would be to install Swype. ;) You can do quite a bit more with a rooted Kindle Fire vs a stock one. I still can't see the dev doing this through the KFU, beyond the possible terms and conditions issue is the fact that you would have other people wanting him to add in certain apps that can't be installed on a stock Kindle Fire, similar to Swype.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacewt:
Everything can't be handed to you. Developers can't take proprietary apps and make them easy to install for you.

KFU makes it super easy to root. That's all you need. Root access and super user. Then you can do a search for swype installation. It's not that hard once you have root and you can easily get that with KFU. You can do temp root and then install swype, you can perm root and then get OTA voodoo root keeper and unroot till you need root again.

No root, no swype. Contact Amazon and maybe they'll add the ability to add swype if enough people write in.

I admit that swype is one of the reasons I eventually rooted. I kept stock because I love the feel of stock.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
Exactly

Yeah you can install gapps and such without rooting permenantly which is what I did. That's exactly what im hoping will happen. I askednkn the KFU thread ill see when they answer.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airmaxx23:
Just temporarily root it again, install swype and then un-root it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
I may have an idea

See but you cant do that without KFU and it doesn't install swype that way. maybe if I changed the name to another apps name than it will install and change permissions for me...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
Ok i did that but its not letting me use burrito root for that. keeps saying i dont have permission. I try to push it to /system/app but it's "read only" even though adb is in root! Any suggestions guys

If you use any custom ROM then you can download a swiping keyboard from the play store. If you don't want to root, then you can't get a custom keyboard
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melmantheman:
Well no not anymore as it seems. with the 6.3 update the "temporary root" option is not in the kindle fire utility 0.9.5

Without that i guess there is no other option.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daevionne:
Honestly you are better off permanently rooting your kindle. The roms these days r off the chain. At first I was hesitant on rooting it but I found out that there is no absolutely permanent way of rooting, there is always a way to unroot your device.

I originally setup my hotmail as an exchange account like I had to do on my HD2 with android to get more than 30 days emails on my phone and also my custom folders. When this didn't work I tried using the hotmail account.

Everything looks fine, it says it is setup to sync every 30 minutes but it just doesn't! I also have it set to sync when I open the inbox which works fine and it also syncs when I press the sync now button in accounts & sync . . . have I missed something here or is it a common issue? :(

How do you install this on r800i'
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ch3mn3y:
There is two methods:

1. Flash it in recovery.

2. Unpack .zip file and copy settings.apk from /app folder to system/app folder on ur phone

!ALWAYS REMEMBER ABOUT BACKUP (WHOLE ROM OR .APK)!

I prefer second method.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Selim873:
I've used a rom on my old phone that had a lot of FC issues that were in the settings so I'm really patient with this, most of it works. It's anything that involves a slider actually. Volume, brightness, and also when I click "More" under network settings. But I always have triggers on my Launcher so I barely go on the settings menu. I'm using the R800x.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] igor_anta:
I modified iiandskater's Settings.apk to fix some icons that bothered me. I removed the duplicate location & security setting and replaced some ixons with Xperia S style ones.

This is not CWM flashable, if someone feels like making a flashable .zip please do :) Otherwise just adb push or replace with Root Explorer and set correct permissions.

The SemsSettings.apk is included to fix the alignment and icon to suite the overall style. Enjoy!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] vokal1992:
woow I like this! :p is there any way to add the button switch ics have?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Still force closes when I select "More" under wireless, just a heads up. Thank you though
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] igor_anta:
Might be cause you're running a CDMA version of the phone :S This is the same Setting.apk as the one from the thread in the OP, just modified to look nicer.

I'll post my version in the original thread and point out that it still produces FC's on some devices (probably CDMA only).
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] tiagoSequeira:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Celluciano:
Thanks! It worked for icons but settings's background still the same... How do I change it?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] igor_anta:
The background is from DefaultThemes.apk, that's not included here. Look for a Xperia S theme package somewhere and take the .apk from there.

As for translations I'm sorry, but I simply don't have time to do that now. Try the original thread, I saw someone ask for the same thing there, so you might get lucky :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Ok so my question is this...

The HTC One X ( Evo 4G LTE ) will be coming with a 1.5 dual core processor... yet I hope that the SGS3 will come with a Quad Core processor... am I missing something here? Why is the One X being shipped with the same power as our current SGS2? Or can someone educate me on this? Is the One X really more powerful or is it that the U.S. carriers cant afford to sell a quad core phone for $199?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inline:
SGS3 is going to have the quadcore 1.5ghz Exerynos (spelling?) processor, apparently that's almost certain. Samsung has a even processor already built ready go that's even better, 2ghz dual-core, but they're saving that for the generation after.

And E4GT has a 1.2ghz processor? How are they the same?

Anyways the main features for the new phone are the HD display and stock ICS and LTE especially.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
the architecture is different with transistors and things much closer together on these newer chipsets. just cause its the same clock speed doesnt mean its not better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Ok so this is what my question was, because they are both dual core phones... that doesn't mean that the ET4G has the same power right?

So how important is this when choosing a new phone in 2012? I am asking because I am looking at the Galaxy Nexus or the Evo 4G LTE.... But from my experience the processor is what makes the phones faster when playing games or loading movies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kawaski47:
The chip in the new evo is the s4 dual core from qualcom. Otherwise known as krait. This chip gives the tegra 3 a run for its money
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
The chip on the EVO is better but remember that Sense isnt a light skin to carry. The Nexus runs AOSP android and doesnt need much power to run it. In real life theyre both just as smooth as each other.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drksilenc:
well its not a massive upgrade but it is a deffinate upgrade.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
I just know that once I buy the Evo abd the SGS3 comes out I will mad at myself, and I know that's technology but it still makes me wonder as to why HTC went with dual core instead of quad core.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bman55:
Battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slvrap1:
I thought it was coming with a qualacom processor because the tegra 3 didn't support lte
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheAtheistOtaku:
they need to reinvent the cell phone battery in order to give these new processors the power they need. sure they are more energy efficient but i bet they still gunna drain pretty damn quickly. i would love to have a slim battery that lasts all day. these bulky extended batterys make our phones look like ****
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
LTE capabalities. The Exybos chip will be the first quad core that is LTE enabled.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Actually, in theory, a good quad core should win out in terms of battery liFe. More cores at lower frequencies.

As long as software is developed to properly utilize the hardware of course.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
People buy based on specs. If tegra3 had onboard lte, then HTC would use it without a doubt, even if the s4 is faster and lighter on the battery.

I agree though, I would rather have a dual core processor on my phone. Especially if that means they (manufacturers) will spend more money on a better radio chip set and antenna design.
