[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradr00lzd00d1:
Hello everyone, im about to buy a asus transformer for about $230. It comes with a case, stylus, and is in very good condition. Would you guys say its a good price for that?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjlim:
That sounds pretty alright. I got mine with a dock for $360 in november.

Although, there have been rumours about a Nexus tablet coming out for $200, which will very likely be faster. So depending on how you feel about that, you might want to wait a bit. I haven't heard anything about it having an option for a keyboard dock though, so if that is a big deal to you, the tf101 is still solid.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
That's a good price, make sure there's no borked hardware and you're all set :D

Then check out the dev/general sections and get that baby rooted ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradr00lzd00d1:
i actually found one with a dock and case for 340.00 so i got that one thanks for the help guys

I flashed CWM touch recovery using the GN Toolkit. When I turn my phone off, then hold both volumes and the power button, then select recovery mode, it goes to an Android laying down with the front open and a red exclamation. I have been able to get into CWM before, but sometimes it does not work. What's going on?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
use root explorer and delete or rename recovery-from-boot.p

then flash CWM again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
With Root Explorer or something similar...locate: /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

Rename it or delete it all together.

Reflash your custom recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RyanTX:
Thanks for the quick replies guys. Works great now.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] zedmaster375:
Hey gang. I'm doing some field research on Loons this summer, and we, may be setting up a camera feed that only has RCA output. I'd rather not buy a portable TV if I can use my Tab... I think it may be possible to get an RCA to HDMI adapter, but is the Samsung HDMI adapter made to do video IN? If so, is there any software out there for viewing video in?

Any ideas appreciated!

I'm on my second Xoom in a year. I bought a WiFi only model, sold it and grabbed a 4G/LTE version 6 moths ago. Yes, even with all the new tablets out or on their way late last year, I still felt the Xoom was the best Android tablet available with 4G connectivity.The build quality and lack of annoyances (reboots for no reason, slow WiFi connect, bad GPS, etc) that are found on other Android tablets still make the Xoom a really nice option.

I've owned or used Acer tablets, Asus tablets, Toshiba tablets, Samsung tablets, Apple tablets, E-locity tablets and the Xoom. Hands down the Xoom is still my favorite and a year later I feel good every time I use it. I guess initially cost held consumers away from Motorola tablets, which is a shame, because outside of the loving the IPS screen on my Asus Tranformer I pick up my Xoom every time hands down because;

Build quality is better

WiFi is better

Speakers are better

GPS is better

No random reboots

I'm a Motorola fan from phones to tablets and it's a shame the Xoom hasn't commanded the respect and following I think it deserves for being solid Android tablet choice. I'm very happy with mine and hope to continue to get use for work and play out of it for a few more years before trading up.
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Now that the Xoom is over a year old and the prices have come down so much, I love being able to tell people that my Xoom holds its own with newer tablets twice its price...and it does!
[Xoom General] timrock:
this.....i visit a lot of forums and people always ask whats the best tablet, and no one ever mentions the xoom. so i chime in and ask "what can your tablet do, that mines can't?". I never get an honest answer. The xoom is still one of the best tabs on the market. Even though we dont have full sd card support, or you have to root to enbale usb devices, i still dont find those things bothersome. With a 64gb card installed, why would i need to worry about deleting something from it, attaching an additional hard drive?
[Xoom General] 3devious:
I have to admit that other than the Kindle Fire, there isn't an android or apple tablet I would rather have. The Kindle Fire is attractive to me because of the way you can access ALL of the Kindle library content and magazine subscriptions. I also really enjoy the Amazon Instant Video capabilities. Overall, it's just the best portable media device for people who pay for stuff

I still kinda hate my Xoom but there isn't a tablet I would rather have other than something running Windows 8. When Microsoft releases Office for Android, I will probably either keep this device forever or dump it for something lighter that runs Windows 8. I can and do get a lot done with this thing. My husband always comments that I take it everywhere and use it for everything. (I feel that I spent a lot of money on it and should expect to get a lot out of it.)
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Yes, I remember that you were really unhappy with it at some point, but I'm glad to hear that it's been and still is useful to you.

I love, love, love mine, still. Even more than before because it does everything I need and more.
[Xoom General] dennymancilla:
It does hold its own!

So a friend of mine recently got the "new" ipad, or ipad 3... or whatever... One day we sat down together to take some notes and he shows off his new ipad wi-fi and said:

Hey, mine's got a retina display with 1536 x 2048 screen resolution...

So I said... Well, my Xoom's got expandable storage above the 32gb on board memory, flash support in a fantastic browser, A-GPS support, Java MIDP emulator, a 2mp front facing camera, dual band wi-fi hotspot, stereo speakers, oh... and bluetooth that works with pretty much every other device out there...

So he said... well, at least mine's got a higher ppi pixel density...

I just smiled!

[Xoom General] 3devious:
Yeah it is, thank you Okantomi. I squeeze everything I can get out of it. What do I do with mine? Typed & handwritten notes for class and work (plus annotated drawings FreeNote is great for that,) scan documents to PDF and sometimes use as an OCR, present PowerPoint briefings (awkward HDMI setup required but it's better than nothing.) While surveying a new event site, I use the camera to take pictures of those building evacuation diagrams, save them as PDF. I then take pictures in the venue with the camera and put those in the same PDF. Using my PDF editor, I can bookmark those pictures in the PDF with the floor plan which lets me create kind of a site familiarization document/way finding tool almost on the fly. If I had a panorama viewer and could put my own buildings on other models in the Android version of Google Earth, I could get almost everything done before I even got back to the office.

I also use AutoCAD WS when the CAD data is available and ESRI ArcView to check some of my mapping stuff (our GPS is a little coarse but it's workable.) I can't integrate CAD into a PDF on the Xoom but the point is that this device that I paid a few hundred dollars for can do almost everything my $2100 Windows 7 tablet can do. It's awesome but not almost 3-4 times the price awesome. It's a shame that they couldn't really make the XYboard a step forward. Come to think of it the Droid2 was only faster than the original Droid (which I wish I had a phone that was just like it but faster. Maybe I'll feel that way about my Xoom in a year?
[Xoom General] Eun-Hjzjined:
Hands down the xoom is the best overall tablet I've owned. I've went through a gtab 10.1, flyer, playbook and about 3 nonames before my xoom. I just can't understand why almost no other company can't make a good tablet like Motorola can.
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Motorola did a great job on the Xyboard as well. I would never own it because it's not a Google Experience Device, but a friend of mine has the DROID Xyboard 10.1 and I love using his. Motorola's customizations are minimal, Honeycomb runs smooth as butter on it, and some of the features are outstanding. Motocast is really cool, as is Dijit. The Xyboard has built-in infrared hardware that allows the tablet (using the Dijit app) to act as a universal remote control to control your TV, cable box, receiver, whatever.

Plus, let's be honest, who builds a tablet sturdier than Motorola does? Everything they build from phones to tablets to two-way radios are built like a brick ****house.
[Xoom General] yosterwp:
I feel the xoom is still comparable to today's tablets. I proudly use my wingray as a daily driver.

And I honestly don't understand why some people focus on size and weight so much. The Xoom is a little chubby compared to many other tablets, but it certainly isn't fat. And the xoom isn't much heavier than most other tablets either. Yet the xoom can do the same things, if not more things than the other tablets.

Now that isn't to say the xoom is a perfect tablet (it has a couple flaws), and it isn't to say all other tablets aren't as good, its just like others have said, the xoom should be recognized more today.

And performance-wise, the Xyboard may not have superseded the xoom in terms of performance, but for the people who need a tablet, it is a solid choice.
[Xoom General] PacerguyDon:
Recently when I went looking for a Tab, I had the chance to try out most of the new stuff that's out today. After mulling it over, and doing a little research, the choice was really pretty easy for me. Being a fan of GED devices, the Xoom, even though not the newest and flashiest Tab, was still my choice.

I couldn't be happier with my Xoom. I use it daily for many needs, and don't see that changing anytime soon.

Long live the Xoom :cool:
[Xoom General] mrmako777:
^^^this. imo, motorola has the best build quality of all the devices ive owned, dating back to the star tac. htc is a close 2nd ;)
[Xoom General] 3devious:
Don't tell me you were there that day the Xoom and I hit the concrete...
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
And would the Xoom that hit the concrete be the same Xoom you typed this post on? I love when other people make my point for me! ;)
[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:
I use my GED WiFi Xoom everyday and still love it a year later (got it day one). I also have a Playbook & HTC EVO VIEW 4G & use the XOOM alot more than the other 2 combined. I find myself defending the XOOM on Engadget quite frequently as the fanboys there say it's a major fail. I tell them Xoom can do anything their own Tablets can do (even Delete files/folders using SDCARDXD from Google Play) and I could not be happier. Plus unlike my other tablets the Xoom can use Ad-Hoc and connect to my Photon's Bluetooth for Internet connectivity:)
[Xoom General] kcrudup:
^ THIS. If Ninjas pop up outta the shadows I suspect I could take out a couple if I have my Xoom nearby :)

Until an unlockable, WAN-enabled, quad-core 10" Android tablet shows up for sale here in the States, my Xoom is my daily-driver (and will likely be my kick-around tablet even then). ICS and the custom ROMs (full disclosure: I help produce one) make this old tablet even more useful than when I got it, two days after launch day- and I own few electronic items that I can say that about.
[Xoom General] tumpy:
Call me bias, Motorola the inventor of cell phone, an American company, all of my life I live in these united states of America the mother of higher learning period. Why in hell would I buy a tech gadget that was made by an inferior mind, there is a reason why all other nation send their logger heads here...again call me bias because I am, Oh yeah in anticipation of the Verizon updates I revert back to 3.2.1 HC..
[Xoom General] 3devious:
I can neither confirm nor deny that this is the same Xoom as the authorities are looking for a flat metallic object that was involved in an assault and battery that very day (just kidding, I hit like a girl.)
[Xoom General] jm9843:
Week one Xoom owner here. It's only gotten better with age and I still wouldn't trade it for any other tablet on the market.
[Xoom General] jordanprudent:
I'm glad that your enjoying your Xoom and its treating you well.

Despite any up sides you have stated, build quality, screen and excellent battery life I have been over all a bit disappointed. I was originally very very happy when I got it but over time I have noticed there is a considerable amount of lagg constantly. Despite rooting and using EOS European 3g rom including over clock it seems to make no difference. Bit of a shame really but other than the pain in the ass lagg its a excellent tablet. Wouldn't buy one again but I'm not gutted I did either

J
[Xoom General] princenoob:
Try Nova Launcher in the market it's free.its very smooth on my xoom :)
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I would also recommend changing animation settings in Developer Options to .5 or to none. That and a third party launcher will probably help the lag.
[Xoom General] Draxin:
I have found that regularly deleting cache in clockwork keeps my xoom up to speed. I am on eos stable 2.0.0 , I have found if I check intermittently my browser( I use overskreen) is packing 40-50mb of cache alone I clear it once or twice a day, when I clear it, suddenly overskreen is a lot more responsive. If I clear cache in recovery, the whole system is responsive. That is my opinion. There are other people that have responded with greater knowledge than I but, they may be assuming you already did this
[Xoom General] Zrbyte:
Ive not really noticed a persistent lag with my Xoom since upgrading from honeycomb to ICS. Honeycomb had some horrific keyboard lag with 3.2. Since getting ICS the only lag I get is occasionally if the tab has been asleep for a couple of hours and I switch it on and start typing into google search the keyboard will pause for a second or two then minimise and I will have to tap in the search box again to continue typing but this only happens in the first few moments of use.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
That's a weird bug...ICS is so bug free compared to Honeycomb (especially HC stock).

It's such a pleasure to use the Xoom on EOS ICS 4.0.4.

[Xoom General] tbhausen:
Xoom is a WINNER

Bought a Xoom wi-fi off some dude on craigslist a couple weeks back and promptly upped my RAZR MAXX data plan to 12 GB plus tethering during the half-price deal. Unbeatable combo--I didn't know just how damn good the Xoom really was, but I honestly have ZERO issues with mine. It's just solid and so very useful!
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Sounds like a great deal all around!
[Xoom General] eyriiii:
It's great because it is an google experience device with unlocked bootloader, I am sure Motorola would go bigger if they unlocked the bootloaders of their phones (RAZR,Defy,Bionic) And I own both a RAZR and a XOOM and hands down Xoom is the best tablet out there.

GPS Configuration​

I made another small tool called "GPS Configuration", this tools is actually created for broodROM Business Edition, but since it's very handy to use I decided to post it as standalone app, It's based on the gps.conf which uses the T-Mobile as SUPL TLS Host

Requirements:

- busybox (needed to push the file to the device using the tool)

Screenshots​

(start screen)

(after choosing region and country)

(after building gps.conf)

No problem, it's an easy and yet powerful tool
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] b02:
great tool, sadly not even changing gps.conf, or applying the agps patch by crypted, worked on making the lock faster. What about your lock times ?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] code2k:
Thanks! Runs great on Mac using Wine (except push to device of course) :-) I manually put the generated config onto the device.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
Thanks, but you mean it doesn't change your current gps.conf? Thats right. Since it's made for broodROM Business Edition actually. My lock times are very decent. I showed it a while ago on a youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkG2Y_DDx1E

Good :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] texten:
for locktime you can also try another baseband.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] b02:
which one worked for you the best ? since everything i tried didnt give me under 5-6 at least minutes for lock ....

@brood, i meant that i did change gps.conf even before this tool but couldnt get any results. Anyway, a great tool :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] texten:
i have not tried as much basebands, but i can say, i have the best singal strenght with the latest firmware release of my region. in my case xxKQ7 with baseband KPK

I have 3 questions.

1)Is working on other phones (i have Galaxy Note)?

2)My current gps.conf on my Note is:

You think its ok???

3)I replaced gps.conf in .zip with rom before install it.

The gps.xml its ok to keep the default???

One question: I have build the gps.conf file through this, now how I'm supposed to push it in my device using BussyBox?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
Once you built the gps.conf file it will be in the root of the program's directory, you can manually copy it to your sdcard and then move it to /system/etc and set permissions to RW-R-R, or trough adb, adb push gps.conf /system/etc/gps.conf chmod 644 /system/etc/gps.conf. But you can just press the push button, its the easiest method, no busybox required
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] lepidas:
i tried to copy it manually to system/etc via ASTRO but.....

Well here is a problem, I'll put the whole story from yesterday to today in steps.

In one word, after editing the original file

gps.conf

, with Builded file data my phone can't use any sattelite but it can see them (the sattelites).

1. Started tool - Builded file - Open file for inspection

2. Changed the original files values* to Builded files values** (see the asterisk meaning bellow)

3. Open Compass app (Olysse Gizmo)

4. The app says "SATS=8, USED=0" - No GPS app can indicate my posittion***

5. Re-installed BroodROM through Recovery

6. Compass app (Olysse Gizmo) said "SATS=9 - USED=9" (That's the correct)

7. Again Started tool - Builded file - Open file for inspection

8. Changed the original files values* to Builded files values**

9. Open Compass app (Olysse Gizmo)

10. The app says "SATS=8, USED=0" - No GPS app can indicate my posittion
