[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I seem to have issues with CM74DX2 RC1 (and also with RC0) where apps will disappear after a reboot. Sometimes, another reboot fixes it or a reboot into recovery and clearing the cache fixes it.

I never experience this with other ROMs like Eclipse, so I'm wondering what is causing this? They are apps that reside on my external SD card. But, it's not all of the apps on the external SD card that disappear. Sometimes it might be as little as 5 of them and sometimes 20, but not all of them at the same time. Also, it's NOT always the same apps.

Short of moving them to internal memory, is there another fix for this? And why does it seem to manifest itself so much on CM7 but not Eclipse?

Thanks!

UPDATE: Figured out the issue. What I discovered was that the X2 was complaining that the SD card was mounted read only. However, with Root Explorer, I could make changes IF I remounted it R/W, which was strange since it should always be mounted R/W.

I decided to do a full disk check from Windows on the card and it found errors and fixed them. Since then, no issues every time I reboot with apps disappearing.
[HTC One X] M3PH:
I can't say much as my source is under an NDA but i can say that from what i have been told you'll be better of getting a One X. I can quantify this by also saying that Touchwiz will employ a drawer style interface, the hardware specs are little lower than the One x's and that device is housed in a curved plastic case (i'm still trying to clarify what that means exactly).

I can't say more till may 3rd as it looks like i will be attending the launch event in London, if everything goes to plan.

Please don't ask me any further questions on this. I may have the answers but i really can't give them. I really can't afford a legal fight with samsung over this. If anything i wanted to try and encourage any hangers on to stop wasting time (and save a lot of disappointment)

I will also say the source is reliable, he is a user of XDA and a good friend of mine. He is also the person that is arranging my tickets to the launch event. He used the device to today in one of samsungs global HQ's and i trust his opinion and judgement completely.

I can't stress enough that this is not a rumour or random fan boy hate speculation (hell if he sees this i may even lose my job).

Not to be a smartass, but of all the things I'm curious about "TouchWiz using a drawer interface" is probably the least of them. Nothing you posted is any different (or clearer) than the online rumors and leaks. With that, and the fact you can't say anything, why post? To let us know you know and we don't? Odd thread.

[General Questions and Answers] needspractice:
I am switching to Sprint to get on a family plan to save money. I do not mind waiting a little bit. I was about to get the Galaxy S II but I decided to wait. I'm glad I did because I would have been stuck on the 4G Network. Now Sprint has 4G LTE out and I almost bought the Galaxy Nexus but I am still glad that I waited again because I was thinking about the HTC EVO 4G LTE. Then now I find out that the Galaxy S III will becoming out in May/June time line. I do not mind wating and that is a phone that will be worth having for a couple of years and you will not feel bad right after buying it that it is out dated.

My question is. Is the Galaxy Nexus still the better phone for development and support for rooting. Or is the HTC EVO better for features and support. Or will the Galaxy S III have so much support and be the best phone on the planet that this question will be null and void?

I am just looking for an amazing phone with 4G LTE and full dev. support.

Is there a little nasty rumor that the Nexus has better phone quality than HTC and Samsung? Because I am getting sick and tired of nasty android phone quality like on the Dell Streak.

Well anyway any help would be greatly appreciated please post...
[General Questions and Answers] Ace42:
The SIII will undeniably become the better phone over time, due to it's performance upgrades that will allow it to outmatch the antique GN; basically, the GN will get G updates, while the SIII will be updated even after the GN dies. For longevity go with the SIII, but if you want a cell for now, go with the GN. Although that would be counter intuitive in all senses.

[General Questions and Answers] needspractice:
Exactly. I do want a phone now but I am not worried about it at all I do not mind at all waiting a couple of months to have a phone last a couple of years.

My last question is which phone has better reception and call quality because I do miss my old blackberry because it had amazing call clarity and reception.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roni2915:
Hello all,

I recently bought Samsung Galaxy Note i717R from someone and I got it unlocked to use with Bell Mobility.

I've rooted the phone and it feels that the phone lags sometimes. I don't even have much installed. In fact I had much more stuff installed on my previous SGS2! Even the batter life is poor than what I was getting on my S2. (4 hrs vs 2 hrs screen time). I'm not complaining about battery life. Just stating my results.

Anyways, my question is wether I should sell the i717R model and buy the International (N7000) model. I've heard/read stuff that the International version is better than the devices provided by AT&T, Bell, Rogers etc. Is it true? OR

am I better off staying with my i717R.

Selling the i717R isn't a problem, and neither is buying the N7000! I'm sure I will get it for the same price!

Please suggest...

Thanks! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
The international version is supposedly smoother. I have the AT&T version and get great battery life and little lag. There seems to be a bunch of complaints about our version and hardly any(if any) on the international version. If you don't care about LTE then it might be a good move. Hopefully someone that's had both will chime in. just my two cents and little help to you(lol).
[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
Last summer they let me upgrade my device 1 year through my 2 year contract if I renewed my 2 year contract again...I was wondering if they will let me do it again this summer?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
From what I've heard they will usually let you get an upgrade 6 months early if you call them. Never heard of 1 year though.
[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
Yeah I just had to pay $20 extra than normal 2 year price. It would be nice if I could and im hoping. Ill go in in june and see what they say
[Verizon Droid Charge] Paddington:
Would you mind keeping us posted with what happens? I'm curious to see if this is indeed possible.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DROID3R:
Verizon usually will send you a mailer home after one year letting you know about upgrading early (in certain instances) . But you must upgrade withing a certain amount of time ..if you choose not to they will take that offet off the table and youll have to wait 8 more months (youboriginal upgrade date) before you can upgrade at discounted price.
[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
Cool thanks for letting me know and yes I will keep it updated
[Verizon Droid Charge] bairste:
Early Upgrade

Verizon has removed early upgrades. You will be eligible at the 20 month mark. I am a verizon rep and have to talk to people every day about this. I know in some instances they will push forward an upgrade in order to keep a customer, but just wanting an upgrade will not justify that action. With that, it looks like you will be in your phone a little longer.
[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
Aw that's to bad...looks like im gonna be putting out about $500+ in june then lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] sanman6046:
As stated by bairste, they no longer offer this. If I'm not mistaken, this was part of the New Every 2 offer they used to offer. The main account of any plan would be eligible for upgrade much earlier than the usual 2 years. Unfortunately, this is no longer available.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
You would have to check after a year. I think that you upgraded AFTER they removed the early upgrade, but check your account online to be sure. Odds are, you'll have the choice of waiting until 20 months, or paying full retail. Good news is, if you have a 4G phone and go to a 4G phone that has the same sized SIM, upgrading is as easy as putting the old SIM in the new phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] HTCluva:
Do you know if the galaxy nexus uses the sim we have or micro sim? Im thinking about buying one
[Verizon Droid Charge] fitti28:
It uses the micro sim.
[HTC Jetstream] typhoonikan:
The market (play) app that updates is the same google play that loads on my EVO. It is not made for a 10 inch display and stretches the content of the screen out to the width of the tablet. Wish I could revert back to google market.

Good job google for making unattractive, unoptimized apps- and updates at that!

Hi everyone,

I have the p970h in Costa Rica, and my current software version is V10c. I looked at this page (a page I can't post cause I'm a newbie) that there is V20a for my country, so I tried to get it through the official software updater. When I connect the phone, it does tell me there is an actualization, it goes through all the process and does the update. But, when I check the software, it's still on v10c. And, if I connect the phone, it tells me again that I should update my phone...

Is it normal?

All I want is to get the GB, for battery and speed purposes. I have read the other ways you have posted to do this; but as far as I read in the smartflash thread, the V20x patches there are are intended for lgp970, not p970h, and that can get some troubles, as far as I understood.

My phone is not rooted, and I'd really like to get the update using the program, but maybe I'm doing something wrong. I even tried to fake my country (Mexico, Spain, Germany...) thinking it would do any difference, but nothing.

thank you very much

I live in Costa Rica (which is, if you don't know, located at Central America). I saw there is V20a for my region, but it says it's for Telefónica.

As for preludedrew, I wish his rom had more for customization. But I am well aware that he is to be credited for ANY of us running ICS at all on Evo.

The files go on your computer when you flash using fastboot.

You need to flash the stock image located here

Use this guide to help you: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1366806

If you are flashing the most current build (IMM76I) you need to change the commands to fit.

Example: instead of fastboot-windows -w update image-yakju-icl53f.zip as shown in the guide, you would use fastboot-windows -w update image-yakju-imm76i.zip
