Anyone know where I can get a case like the one attached, for the TF300? I found it on Amazon but it is not currently in stock.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifyre:
Get the one for the prime and punch out two holes. One for the mic and one for the ear phones.

I have exactly that and love it

I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007HKIU08/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

It was $12.99 when I bought it. I haven't received it yet so I can't tell you if its good or not. I only payed like $3 for it since I had $10 gift cards on amazon. So, hopefully it is worth that :D

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblah:
this case has the headphone hole in the wrong location so you have to make your own whole. i have this one and had to cut it to create a hole for the headphones. other than that its a solid case. i just got it yesterday.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifyre:
Should be able to later tonight I think

[Edit]

Quick Review: I really like this case. I have both this one and the Caseen Green Plaid case. I like them both. I prefer this one for work at a desk and static viewing. The caseen case is very superior for use on the move and the hand strap is priceless for working while moving and holding it. Both cases are well made without strong odor and were originally designed for the TF201 (Caseen's has been modified for the TF300 by Caseen)

The TF300 fits very well into the case without having to be forced and the velcro holds it very securely.

Pictures! (I'm an IT guy not a photographer)

Front Shots in the case standing up.

There is a microphone under this leather

You can see the hole punched in the Caseen case for the mic here:

This is where the headphone jack is:

See the hole in the caseen case:

Here is the camera on the right and the light sensor on the left. As you can see the light sensor is slightly obfuscated, this is not an issue for me since I don't use it.

Here are the speaker cut out (very slightly off) and the camera cutout (with the cut out for nonexistent flash)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonnunez:
Wonderful! Thanks for the images. Sounds like I might just actually be getting one of these after all.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifyre:
I love mine. As I said I use it for home and office and the caseen on the move and at client sites.

[EVO 4G General] mjcutting:
I am very new to all of this if there is anyway to root my HTC evo 4g without needing my volume keys I would love to know it. I broke my volume buttons while replacing my screen before I knew what rooting was. If anyone can offer any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
[EVO 4G General] Jon:
I'm no expert but I wanna say no. AFAIK, the volume rocker is required to use in recovery or to get to recovery. I think that will make certain steps in rooting difficult if not impossible.

However, it may be possible.
[EVO 4G General] islandreamer:
Broken Buttons

I have also replaced the speaker several times. My volume buttons stopped working also, hind sight they were bad before the last replacement of the speaker. Also got stuck in a boot loop. Fixed the boot loop by using unrevoked 3 it will error out but it will do enough to get you out of boot loop. As far as the buttons took the unit apart once again and found some fine lint on the corners of the volume buttons black plastic piece. Cleaned it with the torx I took it apart with just be careful not to break the ends of the plastic very fragile. Now works like a new.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariusblk:
Really i don't know why i've done this but after reading a blog i tried to see if the volume down+enter+power combination keys works. Now, after about 1.5 hours the phone display shows "Downloading ... Do not turn off target!!!" The phone is somehow hot ...

As i have a feeling, this is not so ok :) What can i do ? Can i replace the battery to reset the phone ? Will it start corectly ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bvt-1:

Remove battery and start phone normally and all work as before !!!! :D

Long time shutdown

That 's it
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
A battery pull always works, but an alternative is to simply hold down the power button for ~10 seconds. This will always restart your phone, no matter what state it's in. Likewise, holding down the key combination to recovery (volume up + home + power) for that long will restart your phone in Recovery, and same for Download mode.

This is much better than doing a battery pull, as you dont have to remove the back. Give it a try. And you're welcome. ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GChang:
After i finally unbricked the phone a few hours ago, i had the problem that every rom made problems. Until i found out that the soft always claimed Internal Space 0 Byte !

which explained the problems downloading apps ect.

But after ~3h flashing other roms and doing factory resets im at a loss. different Kernels, different ROM's all claim internal space consists of 0 Byte

Somebody has any idea where im making the mistake ? I just got the Phone today.

EDIT: I tried flashing the SE Original Firmware, with litte success. It was stuck on bootloop, after flashing doom kernel it at least booted but still Problem persists
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Possibly a corrupt partition/cwm; use flashtool to flash a stock rom, reboot, then fastboot to boot your custom kernel
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maliceomalice:
Flash stock rom using flashtool. I have this prob once and this solve it
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GChang:
As i wrote in the second post i already did that with no success whatsoever :(

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Use fastboot to erase the partition then boot the kernel again;

usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>

commands:

update <filename> reflash device from update.zip

flashall 'flash boot' + 'flash system'

flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition

erase <partition> erase a flash partition

getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable

boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel

flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it

devices list all connected devices

reboot reboot device normally

reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader

options:

-w erase userdata and cache

-s <serial number> specify device serial number

-p <product> specify product name

-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GChang:
Just one Question

which partition should i erase?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
use 'fastboot erase data' to wipe your data partition. Obviously you'll lose user data, just download/boot the kernel and restore apps/data with titanium or similar
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GChang:
Okay that didnt went as expected :(

erasing 'data'...
(bootloader) Erase of partition 'data' requested
FAILED (remote: Partition not found, or permission denied)
finished. total time: 0.002s
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
if the bootloader is definitely unlocked, i.e. you unlocked it yourself, then there should be no permission errors, so that implies the partition is damaged/corrupted. In that case you could try re-locking your bootloader and use pc companion to repair the phone. Otherwise, check here and if needs be contact Alejandrissimo.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GChang:
So relocking and repairing via Companion worked. Phone is running and Data partition is back. now lets hope i get the rom running ^^

Every once in a while my phone will randomly stop calling (both ways) and sending or receiving texts. It still says I have service. Only way to fix it is reboot.

You would be around the 7th person I've seen mention this (myself included). I swapped it out for another HOX and haven't had an issue since.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] davidstech11:
I had this happen to me but I figured it was because I was indoors. My signal on all my devices is weak indoors (in my home) so I wasn't sure what to think. So far I only seen it happen one day. Then again, I only had the phone a couple days. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DRatJr:
What do this terms mean? I have seen them when referring to ROMs, and I know the package to installed to root was called toroplus, but when exactly is it / does it mean? Thanks.

Also, what specific versions are there? I've seen GNex LTE or GNex CDMA and GNex GSM. Aren't all the GNex, sprint and verizon LTE compatible?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] synaesthetic:
These are the internal names for the various Galaxy Nexus hardware.

maguro - GSM international model

toro - Verizon CDMA/LTE model

toroplus - Sprint CDMA/LTE model
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Yup lol I find it funny cause toro in Spanish is bull lmao
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DRatJr:
Okay so whenever someone says ROM for toroplus that means for Sprint model correct? And why do people say Sprint CDMA / LTE Model? Why the / LTE if it is understood to have LTE already?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuffyPSP:
haha. BullPlus.. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I translated toroplus as extra bull.

...of the people, by the people, for the people...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DRatJr:
The Sprint and Verizon versions BOTH have LTE, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Yeah they both have the late antenna just sprint doesn't have the network switch on to LTE yet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DRatJr:
So why do people call it the CDMA / LTE model?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Cause LTE is not CDMA technology is different , practically LTE is the new advanced GSM technology while CDMA is the old tech and Verizon and sprint still uses it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DRatJr:
But the CDMA nexuses have the LTE capability though, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
We just established this, which is why its called Galaxy Nexus "LTE". :facepalm:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] honest1212:
My fast boot mode says as "toro 32GB"

So is it Verizon Gnex? But I am successfully flashed sprint version ROM and radio!:eek:

What is it exactly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thefatalepic:
That all depends on who you bought it from :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zeinzu:
Got mine from Sprint and fastboot still reads Toro 32GB after the official update. Do any Toroplus actually even say Toroplus in fastboot? My last one from Sprint was the same.

True, but since all three variants are the Tuna family...

Toro is the fatty and more expensive sushi tuna.

Maguro is the lower cut.

And Grouper?

But to the OP:

What carrier are you using?

If it's Verizon you're Toro.

If it's Sprint you're ToroPlus

If you're carrier is anyone else...you're Maguro.

When did you download the Rom? because Newt uploaded the wrong file and called it rc3. Other wise I would wipe everything and reflash. If you are s-on be sure to flash the boot.img too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lysdexia:
I'm about to graduate and am tired of my LG Thrill. I definitely want a Nexus, but can't decide whether to get the Galaxy Nexus from the Play store for $400 or wait for the next Nexus to be announced. When do you think that will be? I love the GNexus, I just don't want to get buyer's remorse if the next one is announced soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
The GNEX will be a great phone for a couple of more years. The next Nexus, though, most likely won't be released until the end of this year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
If you can wait another 5 months I would wait if I were you it really depends if you really need a phone right now I got mine cause it barely came out on sprint (2 weeks ago) but if you saved more money and get the next nexus it will be great too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] platinumandroid:
Yeah I agree, Buy the Galaxy Nexus because it's always possible it will be last Nexus made (Highly unlikely) but still you never know & like the previous poster above said it will last quite awhile and even when the next Nexus comes out you can always sell this one to buy the next and on top of it you will be able to enjoy all the development for the GNexus since even when the next Nexus is released it will take a few months to get all the awesome roms like CM 10 or whatever it will be called.Honestly the Galaxy Nexus is by far my favorite out of all the devices I've owned & I've owned quite a bit including all three Nexus phones,All of the iPhones except the very first & tons of different Android phones,I think you'll be happy owning a GNexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daneurysm:
OP, I played this game at this exact time last year....and if I was on Verizon I would have only had a 6-7 month wait. Since I'm on Sprint that's a year wait.

If you want it get it now. There will always be a better phone on the horizon. My old Evo4G is still a hell of a decent phone and does 90% of what most people need perfectly well...and I've been through 6 new phones since then and what do I have to show for it? Marginally better battery life, a bigger screen and it still manages to do the same exact things.

My point? This phone will be highly functional for years and years to come--especially since it will get Google support for roughly 2 years and then the creative devs will cram Android releases into it that nobody thought would ever run on it. If you wait for the best phone ever to be released you will never end up with a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
I'd say buy the Nexus now and sell it when the next Nexus drops and get that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1cewolf:
You can't go wrong with a Galaxy Nexus. It's probably the most well-rounded phone you can buy at the moment: good specs, full U.S. warranty, more "open" than any other phone out there, and not too expensive.

I expect to keep mine for a quite a while :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lysdexia:
Thanks for all the replies, looks like I'm gettin the Galaxy Nexus XD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EnIXmA:
Yup. Get the galaxy nexus, its just awesome!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
You won't regret it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuffyPSP:
Yep. Get the Galaxy Nexus. Next nexus probably a tablet and Gnex is the first to have the on-screen button which looks gorgeous as butterfly! haha.

well, whats the disadvantage of owning all Nexus anyway. Get all the Nexus!! I only miss Nexus One for now, cuz I couldnt find it anywhere even the second one anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlueGoldAce:
Just sold my iphone 4s to buy this phone. Third party android phones were the reason I switched to apple....but that is not a worry with a nexus device, and ICS really took android to the next level.

Before ICS, IOS was arguably better. Now, in my opinion, it is not even close.

I can't say the same thing about tablets, but ICS is the mobile operating system to have on a phone.

Gnex is a great device, get it, enjoy it, love it.

Hello,

I've been interested in Windows Phones lately, and looking at the Nokia Lumia 900. I see that it is 1.4 Ghz one core, and 512Mb ram. Isn't that a bit slow compared to the other phones around? Like Samsung Galaxy S2 which is 1.2Ghz dual core, and 1Gb ram. Or is it because the OS of Windows Phones isn't as demanding on speed as Android? I've been an Android user and would like to know some details on Windows Phones because they look like great phones. Judging by the reviews I've seen of Nokia Lumia 900 people seem to really like it, with no complaints about speed, so I'm just curious. What do you guys think of the Nokia Lumia in general? Also is there a Windows Phone coming out anytime soon? I don't want to buy the 900 and end up seeing a new one few weeks later. :p I'm also thinking about getting the Galaxy S3, I'm just stuck between a Windows Phone or Android, just need these few questions answered, and I'll be on my way. :P Thanks guys.

Nope, I'm running Tango on mine and it's lightning fast. :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sermann:
To answer your questions:

1. All current Windows Phones are very fast. 2nd generation devices like the Lumia 900 are faster than the 1st generation devices, but the additional speed is not currently needed (I have a 1st gen phone, which is already very, very responsive);

2. New devices are regularly coming out, but nothing better than the Lumia 900 is currently expected. There will certainly be cool devices coming out for Windows Phone 8, but little is known about them yet;

3. A Windows Phone update (codename Tango) is rumored for June. It should be available for all Windows Phones. Windows Phone 8 is rumored for the end of the year;

Android and Windows Phone have a very different philosophy:

* Android is great for people who enjoy fine-tune (pimping) their devices;

* Windows Phone is more for people who enjoy a smartphone that just works perfectly in 95% of the situations;

* There are still some features that some people find essential missing - I would suggest that you spend a little time reading this forum to see if they affect you or not.

Personally, I own an (old) iPhone, an Android Phone and an Samsung Omnia 7. I only use the Omnia 7 as it works perfectly for me.

Hope this helps,

Stephen
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
There are several ways that WP7 is better performing than Android. For example, the entire UI is rendered using the GPU. Android doesn't do this - it can't, there's no guarantee that each device will have a compatible GPU - so it uses the CPU. This is why dual-core Android phones have really smooth UI compared to single-core ones, but even though WP7 is currently only on single-core phones, a first-gen 1GHz CPU WP7 device has as slick a UI as the highest-end Android phones.

With the Tango update, WP7 is optimized for a low memory footprint so it can run smoothly in devices with 256MB of RAM. The existing phones, with twice that much, use the extra RAM to keep more apps in the background so you can switch to them intantly, but even without Tango I can already usually have four or five backgrounded apps in RAM before the phone starts freeing them (by writing their state to flash and then killing the app). There's no need for a full gig yet, or soon from anything that I've seen.

WP7 is also a lot easier on the battery than Android. I can get 2-3 days, even with pretty substantial use (streaming music for hours, etc.). I get less if I play games like Civilization, but that's expected. This is better than most of friends with Android phones, even though their phones have larger battery capacities.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juzz86:
I have used Android for years now, and can safely say that WP7 outclasses many Android handsets in day-to-day speed and fluidity, thanks to the GPU rendering GDTD mentioned above.

Microsoft have taken a different direction with WP7 to Android - rather than throw as much power at it as they can, they tightly controlled the SoCs WP7 was built for, and reaped the benefits on what admittedly looks (on paper) like old hardware, in a similar way to what Apple do with iOS.

You will be pleasantly surprised with the performance of just about any handset. I've had a lot of time with a Dell Venue Pro built around the now 'ancient' MSM 8250 1GHz 65nm Snapdragon and 512MB RAM, and found it outperformed (to my eye) many of the Android phones I've been (un)lucky enough to play with :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
Windows Phone uses the resources better than all the other OS. thats a fact. the 1 Ghz and 512MB RAM is all you need. if you have luck and have 1.4Ghz on a Windows Phone its maybe better but not in that way that you see or feel it.

The illusion that other OS are spreading is that you need more than one core and bla bla, but remember the time where windows 95 or 98 runs on a 1Ghz procesor, with 256 or 512 MB RAM. Is a Mobile OS more complex than a PC OS, NO! so if windows 95 98 can run on that specs, Windows Phone OS can do it even faster and better because its bound to the hardware to use it intelligent.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jessenic:
Just wondering why you used Windows 9x in your comparsion :P I have an old laptop with 1Ghz processor and 512MB of RAM and it runs Windows XP, 7 and 8 just fine. Windows 8 Consumer Preview is the fastest of all those three OSes I have on it.
