You DO NOT have the right to post something like you did because it IS offensive. It probably wasn't reported and whether it was or not is irrelevant.

As for your comment about the fluidity of the rules, bollocks.

It's all about context, which is a concept you clearly have a very feeble grasp of. I won't hold it against you though, perhaps your brain has been damaged by radiation from your phone.

It could turn out 20 years from now the scientists were wrong. And we were causing harm to the planet but weren't aware of it because we hadn't discovered something about how bad it was yet. Point is, out of all the planets and life forms out there Im sure we're one of the dumbest lol.

Yes... had a car accident and wasn't online much for a few months.

I should have tried to take better care of this thread, there is a lot of uselss posts and bickering which weren't even my intent.

I wasn't asking is cell phones even cause cancer from radiation, I was talking about all the extra radiation we have been emitting, including radio and micro. I know the frequency is non-ionizing but just as one poster pointed out about microwave ovens exciting water molecules because the frequency matches the right quantum level, it is possible for the frequency of cell phones to excite something because of its frequency, without knocking off an electron.

I read somewhere that using a cell phone for a long time can actually increase the temperature of that side of the brain, which would make sense with this post:

The increased heat could cause the increased metabolism or vice versa.

So the frequencies are having some effect, this was the point of the entire post, NOT to argue about phones causing cancer, that has been beat to death elsewhere.

It is possible something can be excited because the electromagnetic radiation we are sending out matches a certain quantum level.

EXAMPLE: Things are colored due to what frequency of light they absorb or emit, already showing that things absorb EM radiation (why black gets hotter in the sun). Now in my lab a simple substance would be colorless when pure, but you could see it under UV light if it was big enough to absorb UV. The bigger and more conjugated a substance got (the more electrons it had which could absorb light) the more color it had/absorbed. Dyes are chemicals which can range in any color and it is possible to get an organic molecule to absorb lower EM frequencies than light. Molecules with metal ions in them are more complex but its still the same concept. So I can see if my old spectroscopy professor knows but I would assume something can get excited by MW just as water can.

I'm not saying this excitation causes cancer, but it can cause other things, like the glucose metabolism we saw.

I was really trying to ask what all the EM waves may be doing, including radio waves. I saw where the nukes in space shut down satellites and took 10 years for the radiation to disappear.

Could it be affecting the weather, I read bees would respond to cell phones, can any of these frequencies penetrate the earth/icebergs and possibly resonate them?

Thanks to all the posters, never thought this would get to 11 pages, although there was a lot of image posting along with back-and-forth, could probably delete 6-7 pages to make the whole thread more readable by newcomers.

[Off-topic] uisgdlyast:
Ok... first I have a pretty good idea of scientific methodology with 4 years of bio/chem lab research and over a year of grad school. Maybe I wasn't being clear enough but I don't recall saying the cause of "mobile phone use [resulting] in a tiny bit more brain activity" made the effect of "mobile phone radiation causes increased brain activityI". I'm not making cause and effect claims anywhere in my post, just bringing things up to discuss. What I did say is I read a similar report stating cell phones heat up that side of your brain, and was relating it to the study where that side had increased glucose metabolism and was saying that if the cell phone did cause one that maybe that lead to the other, not that cell phone's caused both nor that phone radiation causes increased brain activity.

I agree ionic chemistry is simpler than organic, considering I am an organic chemist. I'm not sure who that spiel about wavelength and frequency is for since I mentioned taking Spectroscopy which required an extensive knowledge of EM radiation since we used every single kind except gamma-rays to identify the structure of molecules.

I admit I forgot that microwaves do heat up polar molecules through through kinetic energy, so disregard my statement about MW and quantum levels, that is what I meant by quantum, the frequency is quantized, nothing to do with quantum mechanics. I thought the water absorbed the energy, which now I should know it would be difficult based on the electron configuration because, if I remember correctly, that would knock the e- into a high energy anti-bonding orbital.

Thanks for describing how energy, wavelenth, and frequency are related. Again I'm not trying to say phones cause anything, but if they are shown to be affecting your brain somehow it will be interested to find out how.

I'm just saying there is a lot more energy going around than before and I know it is relatively weak but it is hard to believe all that EM radiation is not interfering with anything.

I stopped reading at "this technology is quite new"

actually it's not. cell phones have been around since atleast the cold war. everything that use in everyday life has already been used and tested in the army (especially in cars, F1 used it and tested it before bringing it to the public). and I'm pretty sure whatever electromagnetic waves cell phone's do release; it's not enough to harm anyone or anything. considering the fact that the majority of people probably use their phone 80% of the time for web browsing/social media, not actually talking on it.

[Off-topic] ctraywick1:
Actually... Less than 45% of all cellphones shipped last year were smartphones, so more people probably use their phones, for phones actually. And just because something was tested by the military or has been around a long time doesn't mean we know anything about it. I mean the cold war wasn't even 100 ago years, the 40's if I remember right (definitely far from a history major lol ) back then people didn't know cigarretes caused cancer until the research was published in the 60's. Before that someone probably thought in the back of their minds ( just like the op) "I wonder what ill/good effects this thing, (tobacco) millions of people around the world use- and have been using for 1000's of years- might have", did the research, and brought it to the peoples attention. Point being, op is saying, (and correct me if I'm wrong) that with billions of people using cell phones at every second of everyday there is SOME KIND OF EFFECT. whether its a positive and our great great great great great great great great great grandchildren get superpowers from the increased radiation or negative and there's a huge hole in the atmosphere or we cause our brains melt and drip from our ears whilst we slumber. I know we have some (supposed) scientists/students here so correct me if I'm wrong because I'm far from an expert but doesn't physics say that energy is never destroyed, only transferred and that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction? Wouldn't that hold true for cellular data whether it be voice or data? Our phones emit some type of transmission that goes into the atmosphere which is not naturally present, and who knows how that may affect us or our planet down the line.

Even tho it wasn't tested by the military for health concerns or what not; it was used widely throughout the army as a source of communication. I'm not sure what to think really, cause isn't this the same type of radiation as a microwave? We all know that microwaves are dangerous; cause they emit the same type of radiation as the sun really. Also, there's almost 6 billion registered phones in the world, whats not to say that the amount of radiation isn't bad? I heard farting in great quantities is dangerous for earth also because our farts contain methane lol

It appears that some people do not know what radiation means.

A torch/flash light is a source of radiation, your TV remote is a source of radiation, the power lines in your house, the flat screen TV in your lounge, the fire in the hearth, the TV and radio antennas on top of the hill, all sources of radiation.

Is your local FM radio station slowly killing you (other than with Justin Bieber songs)? Nope.

Does EM radiation hang around? Nope, it's got better places to be, so unless something is reflecting it back towards the emitter, the photons emitted are going to go on and on. This is how we can see distant galaxies and the remains of the "big bang"

Chernobyl radiation kills very quickly. Trust me.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
"Chernobyl radiation" is this some new form or radiation, or do you mean radiation from the nuclear accident at Chernobyl?

If the latter, then that would have been alpha and beta particles, along with a heck of a lot of gamma radiation.

These three are examples of ionizing radiation, hence why they damage DNA and prevent cells working which leads to radiation sickness, cancers and death.

Hell yeah cleaning up the mess in reactor 4 was a result of numerous people been basted in sweet lady melt your face off..

But its a whole different topic..

Ask Slotin about radiation..

While it is up for debate that cell phone can fry your brain, he was blasted with a fatal dose instantly when the Demon Core went critical..

TF shutdown by itself and then entered into boot loop.

There used to be CWM on it but the last ICS update broke it and there was no one around to fix neither CWM nor restore root.

Just half an hour ago, before I came to check forums here, TF responded to both volume + power up and power down buttons and I've seen both broken recovery and "wipe" screens.

Now Power Up doesn't do anything and Power Down goes into cold boot that subsequently loops after reaching unlock screen.

I see there's a nandroid back up in CWM folder on sd card created back in March as well as Titanium Backup folder dated April.

What are my options here? I have only a vague idea what Nvflash does so need a general outline before I start reading up on details.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
cold-boot into android and reflash working CWM with one of the one-click tools in the general section, or use an Nvflash tool in the Development section to Nvflash rouge recovery, which will let you get back up and running. Don't use ROM manager.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stangoesagain:
Plugged TF into USB and suddenly got Power + Volume Down to boot into CWM recovery again instead of cold boot, from there got into wipe menu and now TF is back, waiting to sync all the apps now.

Thing O Doom, thanks for advice but cold boot was impossible - it went into boot loop immediately after reaching unlock screen.

I understand CWM changed original button configuration, Volume Down was supposed to be cold boot but with CWM it's recovery, and Volume Up that was original recovery now does nothing?

Is that correct?

Then broken CWM refused to enter into recovery but magically came back after connecting to the computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Odd, mabye you did the sequence differently, but it's good that it's working properly now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stangoesagain:
I don't know how it works exactly, but I understand, using PC analogy, that CWM is like a separate partition and certain button configuration tries to boot the system from it, and it also has it's own boot menu where I could choose to proceed with CWM or go to the screen with the original "wipe" menu.

Right now booting CWM itself is not possible but its own boot menu is still there, it just leads to broken Android with a red exclamation mark (or to the "wipe", of course).

I don't think I want to keep CWM anymore, just root with Titanium Backup, so one more question - how to properly uninstall CWM?
