[General Questions and Answers] Lord Nemesis:
Guy's waiting for inputs on these tablets... Which one would be the best to go for?
[General Questions and Answers] Benignoid:
Honestly I think the Galaxy tabs are the best, but from those choices, I would go with the Toshiba, it has minor problems from what I heard, not too bad. :thumbup:
[General Questions and Answers] tdwepe:
I think the Galaxy Gab will do fine, just because it's Samsung, so it should be good.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
The Toshiba should meet all requirements.
[General Questions and Answers] Lord Nemesis:
The main reason I am not going with the Galaxy Tabs is because they don't have storage expandability and secondly that none of them are upto date on hardware front.

If it can at least play videos from a high capacity USB stick without draining too much battery life, I would go with it.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
The Toshiba is the all rounder for a power user. Samsungs are pretty not super functional, Acer are confused (tried something different and failed) and transformer is an expensive luxury (everything sold seperately)
[General Questions and Answers] olyloh6696:
I would avoid Toshiba at all costs. Poor support. Small dev community.

Desire S • Fallout 1.4.0 • xda premium
[General Questions and Answers] Lord Nemesis:
From a purely Brand perspective, my preference order would be Asus, Samsung, Acer and last of all Toshiba. I wouldn't mind spending a premium if the product is worth it. As I mentioned my Original plan was to get Transformer Prime + Dock, but dropped that idea because of current issues with that tablet. been doing some research on the other tablets as well these are the issues I have been hearing

Transformer Prime - WiFi/GPS/Bluetooth reception issues. Stability issues with ICS.

Transformer Pad TF300 - ICS Stability/performance issues

Acer Iconia A510 - Overheats during gaming, Screen responsiveness issues.

Toshiba Excite 32GB - Poor battery life (< 8hrs), way costly compared to other 32GB Tegra 3 tablets.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
I'd rank them as

Toshiba

Transformer Pad (either)

Galaxy Tab

Iconia

I stopped worrying about battery life,it's all in how you use your tablet. If you must game for long periods then the transformer makes sense. The prime has the best life.

If one was to go from a ics rom, such as tdj beta7 back to tdj DW 2.5. Is it necessary to flash a gb compatible modem first? Or can I just wipe and reflash DW and be good? Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] unciviilized:
I do that all the time just make sure you fully wipe...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
So you just reflash whatever GB rom you want and everything is good?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] unciviilized:
Yup... i was in ics for a few weeks but i just keep going back to gb, try paradox l.o.v.e 2.3.6 its really awesome....

just temporary until things get going with TMO ICS and waiting to see if something awesome can or will be produced...

Went DW 2.7

2.6.35.14 Darkside X V1 Final+ kernal

UVLC8 Radio seems to be working best for me SF Bay Area.. speed Down in the Teens and speed Up in the 2's

Even though darkside Beta 6 was working awesome for me.. wife kept saying there was a echo.. she is on TMO.. and everyone else i had called home phones said no Echo..

Wife wins.. had to drop back to 2.3.6 but at least this is a great one.. Battery .. everything 100% working etc.. no Echo at all.. like i said this is temporary i will be on that bandwagon for ICS when the time comes .. couple of weeks ..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] peppersu812:
And make a nandroid super wipe and advanced restore if you want to go back to ics radio modems all depend on your location it's kinda hit and miss just whatever works for your phone the best I always try coherent ones that will work for our phone and do a few speed test runs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pettigrew95:
So if I'm running T-Mo stock 2.3.6 rooted and want to try ICS ROM I need to go into CWM and flash an ICS modem first then the ICS ROM...BUT...if I want to go from ICS back to GB I only need to restore my GB nand or flash a GB ROM without flashing a GB modem?
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
I've read that some 3rd party cables/chargers only appear as DC due to not having shorted data wires but that doesn't explain what I'm experiencing.

I have an official HTC mains plug and car socket plug and when I use the included USB cable I get full power charging of upto about 800ma with phone on. However, with both, if I use 3rd party cables it still shows as AC but I barely get 3rd of that, say up to about 300 max.

What would be causing this and any tips on a reliable source of official cables in the UK so I can be sure of getting full power when using other chargers etc?
[HTC One X] jonshipman:
Are you sure the cables are shorted?
[HTC One X] treebill:
check this i have a few cables usb cables that give AC charging.
[HTC One X] stuart0001:
No. But the HTC ones can't be either as they are also data cables yet they still give full power unlike the 3rd party cables, - even though they are plugged into the same plug. It doesn't make any logical sense.
[HTC One X] wtsfhit:
The official charger unit from HTC have an Hardware different. To charge with full power you need an original one!

There are a few other Provider they do the same. For example Samsung:

mobi-test.de/allgemein/aus-samsungs-trickkiste-nur-original-ladegerate-liefern-volle-leistung/
[HTC One X] definiteform:
This is an easy answer. They want you to buy their cable. It's the exact same reason that laptop companies might design a proprietary shaped plug. If it breaks, they want you to buy from them to increase their profit margin.

****ty, but a fact of life.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
1) there is NO difference in cabling. You can use any cable with MicroUSB, it makes no difference.

2) the official charger has the data pins shorted, but so do other chargers - for example my Nokia charger (rated up to 5V/1200mA) charges the phone exactly the same as the HTC one. I prefer the nokia charger because it has much thinner cable and doesn't heat up nearly as much as the original charger.

It is possible there are chargers with pins shorted but rated for <1A, they will either withstand it, blow some magic smoke or stop working after a while.
[HTC One X] lfsbtfl:
are there any cheap charging cables out there? in white would be perfect!
[HTC One X] wtsfhit:
HTC modify the Cable to charge with only 500mA, if there is no original One. It doesent matter how much Power the Charger will have. With unofficial Cable it will only use 500mA.

Maybe this effect will only happen on original Kernel.

I spoofed the MAC address of my Android phone using

ifconfig hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Using ifconfig I see the MAC address is changed to the spoofed one.

However, after the spoofing the phone cannot communicate through wifi. Wi-Fi status shows 'connected'. And there are a lot of arp requests and replies. But it seems the phone discards all the replies sent from the router, though these replies do have the spoofed MAC addr as destination.

In Settings->Wireless & Networks->Wi-Fi settings->Advanced, I find the MAC address is still the old (non-spoofed) one.

Settings->About phone->Status also shows the old (non-spoofed) MAC address.

So I wonder whether the spoofing is successful. How to make it work? Thanks.

Good day all,

I have a question,

I am using the AOKP_Bezke ROM and it's a good ROM, I only experience a difficulty which for I don't understand.

For some awkward reason it only recognizes my 11 GB internel (USB) storage but It cannot find my SD CARD.

This is a huge disadvantage for me because I got allot of memory on my SD CARD, it's just strange why it doesn't recognize it. Same goes when I connect my phone to my laptop, it only sees my internal storage.

My phone only recognize my SD Card when I use my stock ROM.

Can someone help me out please? I am in a state of confusion.

Switch to MTP mode or if u r using mass storage mode then use multi mount sdcard from play store to mount both sdcard.

Use a file explorer

Use a file explorer with root access (ES File Explorer works for me) and look in /mnt/emmc. AOKP ROMs are a bit funny with sd cards.

I cannot manage my SD card via my phone nor use it, nor do I see it on my laptop when I connect my phone to it.

What can be the issue here?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomos33:
Hey i'm one dumb guy who managed to brick his Galaxy Note...

I received the ICS Update OTA yesterday, i discovered later that i what on the LPY kernel. Then i though it doesn't matter cause i didn't need to flash any rom because the stock gingerbread was perfectly fine for me.

But the update made my phone (had it for only 2weeks) painfull to use. FC all the time etc... Couldn't do a factory reset because of all the warning over here...

So i flashed the franco Kernel wich was to my knowledge a "safe kernel", then i tried to install the Kingdroid Rom, after all 3 wipe. Wich lead me to brick... I've waited 25 minute for the phone to boot up but nothing... So i tried to restore my backup ok ICS that didn't go well either.

After that i tried to flash trough Odin a Gingerbread Rom, before doing so i've read multiple Guides et threads. Odin got stuck at factoryfs.img every time.

So i did some search and achieved to go through this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26285877#post26285877

I went through the process. And i tried to flash a CM9 rom through recovery as the guy recommends. But i'm still stuck on the Galaxy Note bootscreen.

I believe you guys can help me, i still have access to recovery et Download mode.

I believed i wasn't a Noob since My HD2 i've had numerous phone and rooted\flashed countless roms on HTC/Samsung/Motorola/Sony Ericsson phones... In the end i'm finally juste one big noob...

Thanks for those who will help me, and even take some time to read this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eug3n91:
First thing you should do is check other threads about that around here.

If you can get it into download mode, you could give flashing with Odin a try. If it doesn't get stuck at factory.fs, then you're not superbricked.

If it does get stuck, then you have 2 more hopes:

- HOPE 1

- HOPE 2

If those don't work either...I'm afraid it's off to the Samsung Service center for a shiny new motherboard.

Best of luck to you and hope you get your Note up and running as soon as possible...

Full wipe? Kinda scared now ^^'
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eug3n91:
Wow. You're pretty safe now mate, I guess.

If you're on RocketRom, you can full-wipe, no worries...maybe flash Abyss and reboot recovery and wipe with that, just to be ultra-sure.

You should be clear of any damaging kernels.

Well i didn't change the rom neither did i wipe anything. Juste went to work this morning so...

I think i am going to change the Rom the battery consumption is to damn high... Was at 100% this morning and i'm already at 30%...

So it worked my Note is saved! I've tried the link in the OP (And your Hope 1 ^^') a second time flashed Abyss kernel, then flashed Rocket Rom.

The flashing took 10minutes so for the people who went through this wait!

And the first boot took 5 minute.

So, you are back up and everything I'm gathering, correct?

And, also, from what I gather in your OP, you flashed/wiped with Franco kernel? It shouldn't cause bricks and I'm glad it ended up not "bricking" your phone because so far I don't think it has bricked anything.

Stay clear of anything stock from now on and I highly recommend sticking to CM9 kernel/ROMs. They are smooth, safe, efficient, etc.

Guess what it worked to recover my note but i tried a Wipe after it died. Once again i flashed abyss kernel and then the abyss kernel just never booted...

So i tried to flash via Odin didn't either... And then it's just dead... I have access to recovery trought pda4 kernel flahed with Odin.

I don't know if i want to re format re partion everything through ADB...

I'm without phone since yesterday... My case seems to be different.

As you said the Franco kernel wasn't supposed to brick my phone but every single move i try to make it seems to kill it...

Had one day without hassle. Worst phone i had.

Edit @Andreww88: i swear it was bricked i wiped everything and installed the Kingdroid Rom never went through. So i just went back to recovery and flashed bac the Stock rom and then nothing. Just nothing Odin, couldn't do anything.

Edit2: So i've done everything again it's working again on paranoid rom! I'm kinda frustrated on CM9 i have no codecs, the lockscreen is not Note-adapted, and the Stylus is of no use...

Edit3: Can anyone help me getting back to a Stock rom without using Odin?

I've sent it back to the repair center. After cyanogen worked, i've used Triangle Away to reset flash counter. Flashed a stock rom. It didn't go well as exepted.

When i sent the phone it had no triangle no flash counter and of course no custom rom!

So as chintamanijaipuri (As Indian i found it very hard to write ^^') said never give up!

Use the link in the OP and flash Cyanogen mod trought recovery. Use the recovery of that thread for me it worked well, Abyss kernel on top didn't work for me. Once you boot cyanogen use triangle away, and Flash a stock rom that will brick your Note in good way, (Without Triangle, flash counter, custom recovery) so it will never be your fault!

someone painted his/her one s with a marker yet?

and whats the outcome does it look good or is it noticeable that it's painted?
[HTC One S] ashykat:
:eek:
[HTC One S] djsubtronic:
Marker leave a slight discolouration as the ink a little shinier than the dull finish of the phone, but it isn't really noticeable unless you see it in bright light. But the problem is, markers wear off really quickly. Even an industrial strength oil and waterproof ink I tried.

I've tried satin black car scratch repair ink, looks better than the ink if applied nicely, but, it also wears off. :(

It has been done on the HD2 battery cover as well, carefully sanded and polished to a near mirror finish. I suspect that was steel though, isn't the One S aluminum?
[HTC One S] kuroneko007:
I was 90% joking; the One S is aluminium which will just rust to a dull grey colour, right? Plus, easy as it seems to get small but noticeable chips in the MAO covering, I think getting the lot off would require some serious effort. Maybe 6 months down the line when my phone really looks like cr*p, but right now it is still doable with the occasional application of black marker!

Yup its aluminium, will look a bit Mad Max I guess especially if not done with a lot of effort :-P

Don't think so sham, not stock. Sorry to disappoint you.

Adding init.d support to a kernel is simple. You just have to modify the ram disk, and there are some guides on the internet on howto add init.d support to kernel

Also, what do you mean by "cwm support"? Cwm is flashed to recovery partition, not integrated into the kernel.
