The Hercules and the Skyrocket are the same phone.. I have never seen ATT's LTE in action... where i live in FL all my friends get no better than 10 mbps dl speeds with ATT and they think thats awesome, but compared to my over 20 its not impressive..

I say the T989 and T-Mo FTW!!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xcrazydx:
Lte is amazing, much faster than 20. But 20 is already great
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Really? like how fast?

I am curious because My home internet gets like 11 down and 1.5 up (bad i know) My T-Mo T989 I just ran a speed test and got 21.03 down and 3.5 up..

Like i said I have never seen ATT's LTE in action, anyone got a screen shot?

Wow.. thats pretty insane ... :eek:

fastest I have ever seen an H+ device go was 29..

T-Mo needs to get some LTE rolling..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xcrazydx:
That's still very good. I have the worst signal and speeds with the 989 here. It's roaming half the time. Lol

[Nook Touch General] PatchMeUp:
Hi all, recently bought one of these nice little devices myself. This is how I got on, not all that's supposed to work actually does.

Rooting with Touchnnoter 2.1.31 was easy enough and I soon found SearchMarket to access Android Market. What does work: Kindle, QuickPic, AdAway, DropBox, GoodNews

So I could be reading books and news, but I'd like to have a bit more, namely web access!

- ReadItLater/Pocket is shown as purchased in Market, but can't be installed

- Stock browser shows starting page as Error404, directly opening another page works first time only, but links or scrolling don't. Plus it often crashes.

- pre-installed Opera Mini didn't work, so I uninstalled and reinstalled:

a) only clicking "accept" REALLY fast allowed me to open it at all, otherwise it'd crash

b) spiegel.de and BBCNews always crash, even with images turned off I only briefly see the page layout

- Opera Mini Next doesn't open,

- Opera Mobile and Evernote are supposed to work, but don't appear on SearchMarket

- Dolphin Browser often crashes as well, plus no add-ons can be found

Any ideas why this is happening? :confused:

Plus: can anybody tell me how to access the external sdcard? I tried several file managers, activated root access etc. but have never been able to access /mnt/ or external_sd or emmc. So I haven't been able to sideload any apk either. :(

Thanks!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I use Opera Mobile, I found the apk somewhere (not on Market).

The SD card appears as /sdcard in the system (i.e. shell or ADB).

It is the second device mounted on the USB (i.e. desktop).

If you are writing an application you need the permission android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.
[Nook Touch General] jago25_98:
There's also Instafetch as an alternative clipper.

Regards market errors, it's nice to do adb installs anyway, just a matter of getting hold of the .apk, possibly from AppBrain. OperaMobile (not to be mistaken with the lighter streaming OperaMini) works well for me. Perhaps there's a apk direct from Opera available.

It sounds like you have a problem with market. Perhaps adblock could be interfering? As I say, check out alternative ways to install in the interim.
[Nook Touch General] Schneicw:
The last couple versions of opera mini don't work but luckily I backed up my apps via airdroid and have a version that works. Readitlater/Pocket does not work because their recent updates have dropped android 2.1 support. Have you tried es file explorer? In ES you tap the home icon on the toolbar and select Phone the sdcard should then appear as a folder
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
I see both Opera Mobile and Evernote through SearchMarket.

Try to see if you can find Opera Mobile directly from Market (not SearchMarket)

Market -> App -> Communication -> Top Free

Opera Mobile is on the second page.

Alternatively you could go to Google Play on your desktop/laptop

and see if the Nook shows up on the devices (its called Phone).

Then install them on the website for the device, and a few seconds later you will see them install on the nook.

play.google.com/store/apps

Browsing and installing from the webstore is definitely way faster than on the Nook.

Also, I use another app called Quick Search Widget. Launch it as an app or from the widget. It can search the Market, and also doubles as a Google/wikipedia/... search widget.
[Nook Touch General] PatchMeUp:
Wow, thank you all for your tips - quite a kick-start and steep learning curve!:)

SD card: my bad, as "sdcard" was available. But as I recently formatted this drawer on my SGS (wanting to format the external sdcard, but wiping the OS...) I was extra cautious. Settled.

I downloaded adb and installed apks, great! I still don't get it how to do this on the Nook itself. There's something in NookColorTools about the app having to be in /system/apps/ or else it won't work...

And I'm quite proud to have figured out why Market didn't work! There was something wrong with the content filter: although set to "all", a lot of apps were blocked. Having switched to "mature", I'm in business with Evernote and trying out Instafetch.

BTW: @Schneicw, you're the best! The working OperaMini.apk was the best birthday present (couple of days early)! You wouldn't happen to have an old ReadItLater.apk lying around as well?!?:rolleyes:

Next, I'll give the ebooklauncher a shot. Fingers crossed!
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
You probably do not have install of Non-Market apps enabled.

Bring up NookColor Tools, and you will see check box with "Allow Non Market Apps". This might be checked (but still not working).

So you need to uncheck this box and recheck it.

Also try out remote install of apps from the google play website play.google.com/store/apps from a laptop (you need to login with the same account as on your nook), I find that really convenient...

[Nook Touch General] clem11388:
I've got my Nook Simple Touch rooted with latest Touchnooter. The thing is, I don't want to use the Android Market at all. I want to install the F-Droid repository instead, as it has nothing but Free Software Apps, and has satisfied all my needs on my Droid phone, and I would prefer to keep as much of my data away from google as I can.

I have the FDroid.apk file. But I can't understand how to install it. :confused: I have the box (about allowing install of outside apps) in NookColor Tools checked. But I don't know how to get to the file on the SD card to start installing it.

What is this I've been hearing about installing with adb? Does that mean you can't just go to a file manager, select the apk, and begin installing? Because that is essentially how F-Droid installs its apps. Just does it all on its own, you just click "Install". But if that method doesn't work on the NST. Than F-Droid won't work :( :eek:

Any help would be very appreciated. God Bless ya guys!!

P.S. also the stock browser doesn't really work right. just goes to a black screen after a couple different web pages. And Opera (the one installed by Touchnooter) won't open at all. Just flashes the screen once, then stays on the home screen.

We really need a custom made CyanogenMod Rom!!! I get the feeling it would solve alot of our issues.
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
You should be able to connect the nook to your Windows machine and copy the .apk onto the sdcard.

For browser Opera Mobile works for me.

TouchNooter also has the Amazon Market, which you could use.

--
[Nook Touch General] clem11388:
well as a first note, I would like to say I have no Windows machines at all. I am 100% Linux :-)

But I already have the apk file on my SD card. Its just I have no idea how to get to the file to install it. I thought that the app "Super Manager" was a file explorer/manager of some sort. But it does the same thing as Opera, I click on the icon in the App drawer, and the screen just flashes once or twice. Then returns the the home screen. No thing saying that it has crashed or anything.

So that is where I'm stuck. :(

Also, as a side note, I wish to use the F-Droid repository, because I want to use nothing but Open Source (Also known as Freedom Based) Software. Including markets. It's the number one reason why I use nothing but Linux on my machines. Linux is also faster than Mac or Windows, but won't get into that can of worms right now. hahaha.
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
You could write your own file explorer :) Jk

adb install seems to be the way for you.

Google "ADB download install", there should be a ton of links.

However now you will have software created by google installed/running on

your linux machine. (ha ha).

--
[Nook Touch General] clem11388:
Lol Well I have next to zero programming knowledge. But when I find the the best open source file explorer I'm definitely gonna throw the dev more than a few bucks for his hard work.

I'll look into adb installing for now. Just really hope and pray we get a Cyanogen or some other real Rom ported to NST soon. I think would solve all our issues with a totally different rom on it.

P.S. yes, having proprietary google software is gonna bug the crap outta me!! lol

God Bless ya guys!

I upgraded from cm7 to resurrection remix 4.04 and noticed that the flash videos lag. I tried watching the videos in stock browser, dolphin mini, dolphin HD. I have the latest flash player version installed. Is this a known issue or are there any workarounds?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
did u had a full wipe before installing the rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamafrk:
Yes, I followed these extended steps :

Reboot into recovery

Wipe Data / Factory Reset

Wipe Cache Partition

Install the Main ROM

In recovery go to Advanced

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Fix Permissions

Wipe Cache Partition

Reboot

If at the first boot you can't do the configuration of the google account, skip this step and continue

When you boot into the system, it's probably that you don't have data enabled (3g, H+) just reboot

When you boot again into the system the data will be enable and you can do the configuration of Google Account (if you don't do this before)

This is the moment for install all the extras like themes, fix's, kernels, etc.

Enjoy!!!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skullmonkey:
Eh my stereo already does this. I just turn bluetooth on and I can call and play music through it. I use it many time. But this is a good idea for people that do not have that feature. If you don't have a headphone jack, you can always buy a radio transmitter.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gmtom1:
Ordered! Hopefully it doesn't get stuck in customs too!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
I ended up going with this ( newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875982446 ) Samsung Stereo Clip-On Bluetooth Headset for Samsung HS3000

My reasons for going with this one is that it has added functionality and at half the cost. (it does support AptX, mentioned on the original product page and amazon, but not on newegg for some reason)

This adapter allows me to use a Male to Male 3.5mm adapter to do the same thing as the Stereo clip. In addition, the Samsung has a built in mic, and allows me to add bluetooth functionality to any set of headphones/earbuds. (also, longer battery life)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
Performance review?

Many times I have been disappointed by the audio quality of streamed Bluetooth. It sounds like absolute crap in any car stereo I've heard to date compared to a direct line in or even a cassette adapter. It seems to lose all clarity and power... Is this product truly the game changer? I have a 2012 Civic SI which has Bluetooth and aux in, and except for phone calls the Bluetooth will never be used until the quality comes up to par.

Before anyone gets angry, yes I understand the concept of this device is so that the Bluetooth communication is now between it and the phone, thus Id be plugging it into my aux port. However I re-iterate, in my experience any use of Bluetooth as a way to stream audio gives a very poor performance... would pick this up in a heart beat if it finally changed that! Please let us know!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] reverepats:
Jesus, I'm so pissed by your post. Total crap. LOl, nah I'm just playing. No bit seriously, I had and returned the Belkin Air cast which I used in my 2010 Chevy Impala, and surprisingly the sound quality was even better compared to me plugging it directly into the AUX jack. Which was totally unexpected. Just returned it cause I'm actually on my way to Sprint right now to by this stereo clip thingy. Just to give it a shot. Hell, maybe a new case as well, until my Otter comes in. Good to see a thread on this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] helpwithmy8525:
The HTC Bluetooth StereoClip is worth getting if you are a music lover. The reason is AptX, which is supported by both the StereoClip and the HTC EVO 4g LTE (but very few older devices at this point). AptX is a new method for streaming bluetooth audio, which trumps the older A2DP standard. In my opinion, it sounds as good as (if not better) than plugging a 3.5mm cable directly into your car audio.

Also keep in mind that while many high-end or luxury cars may already have bluetooth cababilities, I can bet you that those cars support only A2DP bluetooth audio, and not the newer AptX technology. Check your user manual.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] snick8467:
helped me remember i have a plantronics bt earbud set, and the ear buds are removable...so i'm buying an adapter from monoprice and just gonna hook the bt to aux in. hope it works...adapter was 36cents, and $2.35 shipping..lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
availability?

has anyone found a working sprint or at&t link to order it?

The corporate stores in my area are giving me the bs line that the product hasn't cleared customs...

I found it online http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-car-stereoclip-audio-bridge-a100.html but i'd much rather pay $60 than $70....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ptrd:
I asked this in the Q&A but no one really answered.

Can you use a direct plug in for music in the car? My car has bluetooth for calls only and not streaming music.

I used to use a male headphone jack and still do but I can't change the settings to get audio out the headphone jack.

I see a default for voice and music but the music options only the bluetooth.

I can't be the only person who wants to use the car dock + headphone jack and bluetooth for calls can I?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
Yes I can but I'm trying to eliminate the cable.

The main reason is that I have the HTC Car dock and when I pug the audio cord into the 3.5mm port I get a buzzing sound. Some people have commented it could be a grounding issue with the charger, but I have never had the problem before and it disappears as soon as I take the phone out of the dock. I really like the dock though so it's forcing my hand into seeing how the stereo clip works out even though I'm not entirely thrilled about paying $60 for it... regarding your comment when I use the 3.5mm for music it works so long as I have the aux in selected as my source on my car. Then my car is smart enough to have the bluetooth override it when a call comes in. I have a 2012 Honda Civic SI.

Hopefully someone can help us out and post a link?

Got my Samsung adapter from Newegg on Friday. Works great in my car.

every link that I follow from blog posts to Sprint's own website brings up a blank page...

Is there anyone that has a working sprint or at&t product link to order the stereoclip?

Or any link at all to order it for less than $69.99?

:(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
HTCpedia

Has anyone ever ordered from Shop.HTCpedia.com?

Good experience or bad?

Have any discount or coupon code? :D

They seem like the only ticket in town to buy the stereoclip...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thedeadletters:
All local Sprint Stores were out of stock and an employee told me their warehouse had no inventory. I was also forced to go through HTCpedia. I ordered on Friday and received it Monday with expedited shipping (NY to CA).

BTW - I hooked it up to my home stereo and noticed that the sound cuts out if I cover the plastic upper backing (glossy part) of the phone with my hand. I'm not sure how this will affect its use in my car yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
Very interesting. I ordered from them yesterday but did the free ship option. I will see what my experience is and report back.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thedeadletters:
Cool. It'd be nice to know if I wasted my money on expedited shipping.

Also, the stereo clip works perfectly in the car. I don't know why it was cutting out in my home stereo, but it's totally fine in the car. Covering up any part of the phone has no effect on the audio.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
Update: It works great

I received my stereoclip yesterday. I had ordered it from shop.htcpedia.com and selected the free shipping option. The total cost was $69.99. I had been having issues with buzzing/ static when using my aux cord when the phone was in the official HTC car dock. After having tried several different aux cords and several power adapters I finally gave in and paid for the stereoclip. I am now very happy that I did because I have one of the nicest phone set ups that I have ever had in my car. The sound quality is excellent. It sounds exactly as clear as using a high quality aux cord. I don't really notice any delay like others have reported as well. One thing that I am still working on is getting it to connect automatically instead of having to go into the bluetooth options on the phone. Hopefully this will be a quick fix. Below are some pics of my car set up. I purchased a sprint charger that has the additional slot for another usb device and also a 6" micro usb cable to run straight into the stereoclip. I then used a few cable ties to hold down the charging cable onto my dash so it doesn't fly around.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] modplan:
So the stereo clip lets u charge it and play music at the same time? And no buzz from the stereoclip while it is charging? Looks like this is what I'm going to have to do too :mad:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bds369:
Yes with this set up you can charge the clip and play music at the same time. No buzz through the audio at all. Yes it was more expensive than I wanted, however it's done and over with now and I at least have a good working setup.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] donatom3:
You can save some money and buy the Samsung HS3000, and it uses the same apt-x codec as the HTC Stereoclip. There is a review post in the accessories sub forum.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] snick8467:
got my fiance the stereo clip at the store locally. i'm not sure the reps there knew what it was. She's had it for a couple of weeks now and loves it. Sound is as good or better than wired.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrnamster:
Question:

When plugging in the charger (or when the power supply gets cut during engine start), does it unpair the device?

I currently use Scosche motorMOUTH and it unpairs when plugging in the charger or starting the engine. I also have to press the button on the device to pair each time I get in my car. The Scosche also produces a buzzing sound when charging.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0036ORN2U

If the HTC unit doesn't have those issues then I am definitely interested.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] modplan:
The Samsung HS3000 does not have that issue, I have it permanently installed and charging in my truck. I drop my phone in the dock and immediately start playing music.

It has the Apt-X codec so it sounds just as great as the stereoclip and its only $30!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrnamster:
Amazon.com has the Samsung HS3000 in stock at $33.99 with free shipping.. you got me tempted to try it out! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0057WWK5E

About your setup, you mentioned a dock. Is that the car dock with Car app? I know the car dock with the Car app has the auto-connect bluetooth functionality but I'm using a universal car dock without that app. Also, does it use microUSB for charging like the HTC?

If it connects automatically, has no buzzing sound when charging, and does not unpair when the charging power is connected/disconnected then I am going to try it out.

I like the HTC one only cause it has a male plug. Maybe a gender change 3.5mm plug would do the trick for the Samsung.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] modplan:
Yes I use the Sprint car dock and Car Dashboard Pro. I use tasker to turn my bluetooth on and off when I insert and remove from the dock, after which it pairs instantly.

Yes it uses microUSB, but only comes with a home charger, but any microusb car charger will work. I prefer the female plug on the samsung vs the male plug on the HTC, it allowed me to just use a standard aux cord to hide the HS3000 behind my dash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrnamster:
I like that! It's nice to keep things out of sight for security reasons. Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xxdjvalexx:
Quick question.

Hello everyone.

Just got my Evo 4g Lte yesterday and I'm interested on both the htc stereo clip and the samsung hs3000. Now, my question is this: I know that the htc clip does not play/stream the calls over the speakers. Does the samsung hs3000 plays/streams them? That is the feature that'll decide which of the 2 I'm going to buy.

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] donatom3:
The hs3000 handles phone calls as well the mic is built on the unit and sound is on whatever you have plugged in
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xxdjvalexx:
So, If I have the HS3000 connected to the input jack of my car and I get a call, I will be able to answer it, Right? (this is not possible with the htc)

I just want to make sure.

Thank you
