Hey guys, sorry if this seems trivial, I feel bad for asking this after watching such an epic registration video (which by the way is better than reading all that stupid text and actually kept me interested).

I was deciding whether I should use Android Revolution HD or Codename Android for my phone, or if you think theres some other godly ROM I should be using. I'm trying to keep the phone as stock as possible while getting the tweaks to make the phone amazing.

Thanks~
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Its all personal preference and all these devs do great work. Code name android was my go to for the past couple of days, switched over to the latest eclipse with Franco nightly kernel and I don't think I'll be switching back.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Stay stock, get a custom launcher and custom kernel is another route. I am stock imm76i, nova launcher prime and ogdobber's 3.1 kernel that allows uv's. I am a battery mizer so if you want some performance find another kernel.

bow chicka wow wow.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SE.XperiaRc:
Hey guys,

My tf101 has wifi connectivity issues. My router is approx. 15 meters away from my room and it has poor wifi signal most of the time or no signal at all.

When I turn it on, it finds it and connects, I am able to browse. But then, a few seconds after staying connected, it disconnects again, it just disappears, zero signal. I turn off wifi and then back on. It either does the same thing, or, tries to authenticate/connect to the network and disappears again. When I put my tablet right next to the router, it connects perfectly for much longer. But sometimes, it still loses signal completely!

Soon after, I decided to do some research and I found out that changing Channels (I changed it to Channel 6) on the router could help. So I did, and it magically works. It manages to connect and stays on for much longer, but... it sometimes still does the same thing. But when I'm not at home, I can't change the wifi channel settings (I don't think?) so I want to know why this happens...

Even my Sony Android phone, has average wifi signal and is able to browse smoothly from where my room is.

I've been thinking if the root cause of this problem is from the antenna inside the tablet? Maybe not connected properly?

Should I open it up? And if so, is it safe to open it up? And what should I do when I open it up? Does anyone know anything about how the Wi-Fi system works in the tablet?

I am in need of some advice on how to open it and what I should do to fix it.

I'm worried that I might break it somehow...

Cheers,

Hong
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goatshocker:
What ROM are you running? Some have wifi issues. Even the stock asus ICS rom have so-so wifi imo.

As for opening it up... That would just be stupid if you dont know what youre doing. Some parts are extremely fragile, especially the frame around the display.

Youre better off RMA'ing it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xyellx:
Had the same issue, solved it by replacing my f*cking Linksys WAG2G with an Buffalo Gigabit router.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SE.XperiaRc:
Stock rom, stock asus ICS.

I have a bit of experience in opening up laptops, which are quite compact but not as compact as a tablet or a phone I'm guessing.

Is there a good method of opening it up the tablet? Like a video tutorial or something?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SE.XperiaRc:
I don't think it's my router problem though... All my other devices can connect to the Wi-Fi from the same distance perfectly.

So I'm guessing it's the device itself, either the hardware side or the software side... Still not sure
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goatshocker:
Trust me when I say this: The difference between the TF and a laptop is like the difference between a PC and a laptop :p ... ok maybe not quite as extreme, but theres a huge difference.

And yes there is a video tutorial on these forums, somewhere...

ok, i know this is a site for phone devs but im sure some of you guys have built yourself a computer or to. i have built them but never assembled by hand. im trying to re build an old Compaq using a new mother bored and video card ( even a new power supply if needed) i would like to use all my old parts if possible other then the ram ( that can be new) id like it to be a high powered computer with DDR3 ram for gaming and media editing ( it needs to have more then 2 monitors plugged into it) if i have to i will buy a new case but i would very much like to use AS MANY of the existing parts as i can (ex: HD,fans, disk drive ..etc... my price range for the new parts is about $300-600 over time . (so i will buy the parts one at a time)

thank you for your help!
[Off-topic] drpsyko:
The only thing that you can get from that is a working PSU, all the fans, RAM, HDDs, CD/DVD drive and the casing itself. Based on your preference, you have to change the motherboard and the processor to a newer one.

OR, you can stick with the old setup, but with liquid cooling for extreme overclocking and higher spec PSU. I think there is a PCIe slot in it, doesn't it? So stick in a higher end GPU and voila! XD

Budget? Dunno, there is so much difference in monetary exchange I lose my calculation. :confused:
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
I was planning to upgrade the mother bored and put a i7 in it with a new video card a bit later . I should be saving a bunch of money by recycling the old components. Considering I'm only going to need the mother and the i7 right away. Then mby a power supply ( which I may be able to take from an old computer somewhere )

It has 2 PCi and 1 pci e ( I was going to just upgrade with a video card at one point but the computer is just so slow and incompatible with most new cards )

I don't have much in terms of monetary funding so I was planning to do this over time .
[Off-topic] OmegaRED^:
Don't buy parts over time.

You will end up kicking yourself.
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
OK , so its better to save up and buy at the same time then?
[Off-topic] drpsyko:
So true. Though this is a bad time to purchase parts. Urgh, how I wish I bought my PC from back then before the flood happen. But then, purchasing all of it in one go is a good thing. You can get bundle price, freebies, and you ought to buy different things in that specific time, given that you have accumulate enough money. Aaaand, all the prices will be lower eventually. So, it's best for you now to start saving money and generate patience. ;)
[Off-topic] OmegaRED^:
Since i often help guys with upgrades and so on.

I would suggest you please take my advice.

Too many people i know hurt them self by not saving and buying a entire new machine.

Sometimes they end up wasting way more than what was planned.

Also ask yourself this question "what am I using my PC for?"

Because i7 is way hardcore overpowered... but a very good choice for gaming.

Best of luck.

I'm on a:

AMD Phenom II x6 T1100

8GB ram

"Hybrid" gpu setup "not recommended to AMD 2GB 7890HD + n-vidia 250gtx on crossfire board"

It's not the best.. but it's a bang for what i paid.

So far nothing lags my pc... ever.

i can play "lol" while compiling in the background, watching anime and still have loads of resources left.
[Off-topic] drpsyko:
Dat setup!

Damn, you made me jelly. It really is not recommended, but that firepower...even Unigene would cry.
[Off-topic] OmegaRED^:
I know... completely overpowered.

And the price wasn't even that bad.

And i can safely say stability is spot on with intel.
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
I have a laptop that has an i7 chip in it and a dedicated graphics card + an integrated one

. So I can't have a desktop with less power then my laptop . ( I used a replacement to get this laptop :)) verizon expert care or w/e its called is amazing ! I told them " the reason my computer failed is because of the inter grated graphics card" and they said OK and showed me computers with dedicated ones :) ( it was a true statement ) . I have started saving up for the computer and Im hoping if I get the money right before win 8 is out I can by the parts cheeper because the company have new parts coming out at that time.when I used to have the money I would buy a new system . But I just can't spend 1 grand on a computer...when what I really want is a project and something to have fun with and video edit+ play games .

Im going to use it for gaming and video editing + school
[Off-topic] OmegaRED^:
Then go for power.. save up.. buy once.

Phenom II should serve you well.

Nothing less than the T1050... and i suggest you stay away from the new bulldozer chips.

They need to mature more first.

Else core i5 if your a bit AMD shy.
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
i am AMD shy, im sorry to say i am a huge Intel fan ( due to the fact that most of the computers i have had that are AMD haven't lasted but the Intel ones have) im working on saving up the money , i should have enough in about a month or two i hope
[Off-topic] drpsyko:
+1

I'm sorry for your AMD loss.

Good luck with the savings and the new computer. ;)
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
i appreciate it !
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
what i have picked thus far

i chose liquid cooling due to the fact that the case i am using is small and doesn't have very much air flow.

(push pull configuration from back fan)

the PSU is variable but so far to be safe im going with a 500W

the memory is also something i might lower to 1x4gb however at this moment im going with 8

the I7 is so the computer has more power then my laptop

what i need to decide upon is a good Micro ATX motherboard that can handle the equipment im using and be able to have more then one 4 pin fan plug in

the motherboard also needs to be able to use all 4 of the PCIe/PCI slots on my computer with the ability to use the existing front USB (2x) ports and the 1 headphone jack also in front

i also need a good video card, i would like to be able to at some point fit 2 in (as an upgrade in the future ) but that is wishful thinking im going to be installing a wireless N card (at some point) so the MB needs to be able to have that with the video card

any ideas on a video card?

( i like nvida as a #1 and ATI as #2) in order of my favs

thanks for your help, also the links to the parts above are below .!

this is the micro ATX board i thought was the best i could find. any ideas? i am measuring to see if i could put an ATX instead of a micro atx (i believe i might be able to get one to fit)

*edit*

im looking for full size cases just to see if i could get a bigger board (and more fan space) so that means for the time being im looking at both micro atx and atx

*edit #2 *

I decided to get a new case so i can put a full ATX board in and have the ability to cool the machine.

im still looking at motherboards and video cards i have everything else either picked out or i own the part already

[Off-topic] drpsyko:
Hmmm...seems like a decent setup. But then, please revise your selection of PSU. The HD 6950 could drain a lot of power from that PSU as high as 300w. And for future expandability, I would recommend you to use higher output PSU. That is if you planning to use SLI or crossfire configuration. The casing is an OK, but for me, I don't really emphasis on casing. I'm a DIY user, that is. Hehe. As my opinion on the cooling system, there is no need for the processor's liquid cooling. For now, it is best for you to use stock cooling block as it is already adequate enough.

As for the alternative option, you can change entire casing and cooling system into custom liquid cooling system from Koolance. IF, you have extra budget to spare AND planning for expanding your setup or overclocking your processor and GPU.
[Off-topic] good4y0u:
what would you recommend as a good enough PSU? also i figured that if i off the bat installed liquid cooling in that one spot then when i did upgrade further (another day) and put in another video card i could still be safe in knowing that certain parts will stay cool .

[HTC Wildfire S] cinderboot:
It took me a while to find this, so I'm hoping this post will help others. I apologize if this solution is mentioned somewhere else.

On the stock OS, 2.3.4, the boot animation is located in /system/customize/resource/ and the file is Sprint_bootanimation.zip.

Likewise, the powerdown animation is Sprint_downanimation.zip.

The music files are VMU_Power_Up_48_24.mp3 and VMU_Power_Down_48_24.mp3.

The file that you must EDIT to change the boot animation is located in /system/customize/CID/ and it's called default.xml.

The code that specifies the boot animations is:

<BootConfiguration>

<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/VMU_Power_Up_48_24.mp3" audiostart="Sprint" />

</BootConfiguration>

<ShutdownConfiguration>

<ShutdownAnimation image_png="/system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip" image="" fps="6" audio="/system/customize/resource/VMU_Power_Down_48_24.mp3" useAudio="1" />

</ShutdownConfiguration>

Just REMOVE or EDIT the filenames (i.e. animation="", audio="", image_png="").

I removed them and my phone booted 6 sec faster.

I also deleted the zip and mp3 files and gained ~ 1MB.
[HTC Wildfire S] ChaoticDriver:
I am guessing this would be very similar to wildfire s for uscc. with the exception of the file names being differant.

[General Questions and Answers] Dead Man Posting:
I apologize for not being able to post in the appropriate thread, but I am following these instructions for adding not-officially-supported languages for the Nokia Lumia 900 device that I purchased with AT&T.

I have succesfully flashed my desired languages (Finnish and Norwegian) to be included with the already included English and Spanish languages. I didn't update the core OS, and left it at 7.10.8112.7.

However, as expected, there are some "bugs". Really I have only noticed two.

Nokia Scout tells me when I open it (translated): "Scout isn't available in this land or in this region". This may be app-related and I frankly don't think I care too much about Scout since I don't know what it is.

My second problem is more bug related and problematic to me. The "nokia blue" theme does not appear in the list of themes for the windows phone. Thus, when switching to one of the two new languages, the theme gets defaulted to purple, but apps with live tiles think it should use green. Manually selecting a theme fixes the problem, but I really would like nokia blue.

Is this possbly related to outdated language files? If so, how can I download the latest language files?
[General Questions and Answers] jessenic:
Hi,

I got your email and I'll answer here so others can see too. The problem with Local Scout is that it's not available in Finland. Be sure to set only Display Language to Finnish and leave others as US. That way those apps *should* work. (Also needs US Live ID) The second problem is that accent colors are language based, so you cannot fix it. It will only work on languages that the Lumia 900 came with.
[General Questions and Answers] Dead Man Posting:
I noticed the Lumia 900 is started preorders today in Finland.

Is it possible I can flash the nordic ROM or something once someone gets it?
[General Questions and Answers] jessenic:
That might be possible, but since the European version of the Lumia 900 has different hardware so you might loose 4G and maybe 3G too.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NoctMonster:
Here is a pic of what happened to me. Lately the phone shuts off whrn it gets ecen remotely hot, i can barely feel it getting hot when it shuts down. After that sometimes it wont reboot because the battery has drained and when I plug it in it shows a battery with a yellow triangle. Another thing is that my phone or battery has killed two different chargers and it seems now the only way to charge my phone is through a usb cable either connected to the wall or to my computer.

So which is it, my phone or my battery that is bad?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mark.J.Linskiy:
As I recall, if the battery is drained and shows the triangle, it just means it's too "dead" to power on.

Hmm, that's strange. Were they Samsung Chargers or generic ones?

Maybe it's a certain ROM or something you are using?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NoctMonster:
The first charger was the OEM one that came with the phone. It died within 3 months of usage. The second charger was from an old motorola phone I had, my phone killed it almost instantly.

I was using Calk's latest ICS ROM so I decided to flash GB again using this method. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1394332

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
That's probably a failing battery. Mine drained while charging. Turnout to be a bad cable. I also had the wall adapter start to do that when it went out. Try a new charger and if that doesn't help it is probably a bad battery.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f4zkh4n:
How do folks,

Not an urgent matter. Noticed my stock camera app, when scene mode in camera settings is set to anything but 'Auto', i lose the ability to set the flash mode. White balance then also seems to become inactive in some scene modes.

This might be normal and I've never noticed before. Just worried my, otherwise successful, flash to 407 olleh rom, might have caused some quirkiness (I also at the time played with build prop to enable shutter sound off option).

Can anyone confirm they get the same behaviour on the stock camera app in 407 or stock rom?

Also, finally 24months O2 contract is up for my streak. I'm thinking Galaxy Note is the way to go but just wondering if I'll regret not going for the SIII 18 months down the line? Anyone got an opinion on that. IF I go for the note, should I stay with O2 or jump over to 3 (enticed by the all you can eat data).

Many Thanks
