[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougsdir:
I've got an 8GB SD Card which i plan to upgrade to a 32GB installed in my HTC Desire

Only problem is my Desire running CM7 Official is also running Simple2Ext and Ive installled quite a few apps now (well over the Desires own internal space)

Is there an easy way to upgrade my SD Card and copy the Ext partition from my old 8GB card?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
- nandroid backup using your current sd card

- partition your new sd card (4ext or gparted)

- copy everything from old sd card to new sd card (you'll only see the FAT32 partitions in windows, just copy everything you can see, as this will include the nandroid backup)

- insert new sd card and nandroid restore (will restore your ext partition as before)

not tried this with s2e, but should work
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajverma3135:
Yes this method works brilliantly as I used it personally couple of times in past.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougsdir:
thanks for that, i'll give it a bash

Ok guys i have ICS how can i take this and make it into a flashable ROM? Or how can i make a deodexed cwm ROM? Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Reeonimus:
I'm sending my TF101 in for an RMA because it becomes non-responsive shortly after it boots up. I just wanted to know if anyone has any tips. I had custom ROMs on mine but have gone back to Stock using the Root Toolkit. I am in Canada and was hoping another Canadian could tell me what the stock firmware is on our pad right now? Do we use WW? I don't want to send it to the depot for them to find out I have the wrong stock firmware and deny me service.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
I sent mine for RMA on power and volume button issues 2 weeks ago, they sunk into the tablet after normal use.

I'm in Toronto so they sent to North Bay, before that I took videos and a dozen pics showing the excellent condition of my tablet, no dings, scratches and everything else working except the crappy buttons they designed. Packaged it using their box and a bubble wrap envelop and put $300 insurance on the thing.

All in all took about a week for me to get it back. Use their tracking page on their site if your worried. They did a professional job the buttons are fixed, the volume buttons are now hard as a rock but the power button still feels soft. No other issues developed like dents and scratches from their repair except my screen cover got turd. When they reassembled the tablet they must have tightened the cover as I have no creaking no more. One more positive.

The horror stories you hear on this site probably come from the American facility in Texas where incompetence rules. hahaha
[Eee Pad Transformer General] yanbo2012:
I can confirm the uselessness of sending stuff to Texas for repair.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Backwardsblade:
I went through a triple rma before they even looked at the internals of my device. Took over six weeks, really sucks to be one of my students this year. They've just been awful for me. But who knows, ymmv.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fone_fanatic:
I've had an overall positive experience with the Texas RMA center (btw, its not run directly by asus, it's a different company contracted by them).

I've mailed in 2 chargers and my tab with no issues.

I did have a scare though, the first charger I mailed into them wasn't updating on their repair tracking page. Gave them a call after 7 days and the rep I spoke to said I mailed it to their old address and doesn't know what to do. I kept my cool because the rep I spoke to for starting that RMA gave me that address and it was on the RMA form they emailed me.

After 5 minutes of back and forth, turns out it arrived there on a saturday and the person to receive it never checked it into the system. It was "repaired" and going to be mailed back that day.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
If your experience is anything like mine, you'll experience a nightmare.

I bought a new tablet because I was so fed up with sending my tf101 in for repair and getting it back in worse shape than before. After two months of repairs, my tablet is not usable.

Good luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Lifeflare:
My RMA Experience is full of woe and misery. :rolleyes:

I am in Canada, I have an issue with my TF101 wifi not turning on the screen. I did a great many things to try to resolve the issue then finally sent it off to ASUS. Too many mistakes along the way.

1) The RMA they gave me was for the Texas repair facility. The time that it took my tablet to get there was about a week (not too bad for snail mail over the holiday weekend), I did insure it and sent it priority post to make sure I got a signature at the other end.

2) It was received by ASUS on the May 29th (according to when they signed for it). It took them 7 days to acknowledge that they received it when I tried calling in.

3) I received an email saying that the tablet had been sent to the wrong service center, so instead of fixing it and then sending it back, the issued another RMA for it, and shipped it off to Ontario on June the 4th.

4) During this whole time absolutely nothing has been added to the online versions of the RMA lookups, so rather than having some convenient messages that I can look at it simply says that 'they have not received the product'

5) I have tried the 'chat' as well - all it does is time out after about 10 minutes of waiting for someone to respond.

6) I just got off the phone with Support and have been told that it will take at least another 3 to 5 days for it to be received and then about another 3 to 5 days for the repair, and then 7 days back to me. Tentatively.

I am about a month in (including the trouble shooting that they asked me to do before I RMAed it)

I am - however - very impressed with my TF300 that I purchased recently as I got lonely for the company of my tablet on commute home on the bus from work. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
You got screwed.

Should have done research on this site before RMA. I knew before I called them that it would be sent to the North Bay location in Ontario. US customers get sent to the Texas facility, Canadians to Ontario, hence my snide remark about the Texas center. If I had to send it to Texas I would've cracked the case open and tried the repair myself.

Their RMA tracking site is slow, mine was stuck at waiting for repair then suddenly change to ship, all in all took a week for my RMA. I demanded free shipping as this was a defective hardware on normal use, they complied but stated they could not send free shipping label to Canadians only to US customers, probably a BS line.

Hey guys! I just found this launcher on the play store and I didn't know if you guys knew about it yet but it is basically an exact replica of ICS. It really is amazing.

Here's the link the link for you guys!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.hololauncher

Make sure you go into the launcher settings and go to drawer settings and change the transition effect to "card stack" to get the full ICS effect.

Good call. I had used ICS launcher in the past but it started FCing occasionally so I switched to something else. Installed Holo launcher about a week ago and love it!

Yea I used ics launcher to and same thing happened to me.

Ever since I found it I've used it and nothing else lol
[Continuum Themes and Apps] KJW979:
Thanks for pointing this out, giving a try. So far seems okay.

Edit:seems to be a lag with apps showing up on homescreen when returning after running an app for a while, might go back to Lightning Launcher.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] DJMaj07:
Did you activate the "Keep in Memory" option in the settings? That should keep the homescreen from refreshing/reloading after using apps that are memory-intensive. I enabled that setting and haven't had any problems yet.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] KJW979:
Yes, I did, seems better today. Is a decent launcher. Going to use for while see how works.

I just got a brand new Samsung SGH-i727 that I cannot get into Debug mode, which means that I'm bored with it already! I want to ROOT!! I can navigate to the setting, select the check box, and it remains checked, however, it won't indicate Debugging mode ( in the status bar, with the pop-up or otherwise when connected to the PC), and I cannot access ADB to root it! I am at a loss. I have scoured the forums, deleted and re-installed the drivers, deleted and allowed the device to re-install the drivers, used different USB cables, including the original, and a decent aftermarket, used different USB ports, used different PCs, (Two Win 7's, and one WinXP, all to no avail.

If you were to call up they'd let you upgrade early, it's only 18 days away.

Bye Verizon.... I'll be counting the days to my upgrade/departure.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] david_hume:
Same here. I'm done with Verizon's bull****. I'm going to Sprint (maybe AT&T if they don't raise their prices due to the failed T-Mobile merger). Once my contract is done, bye bye Verizon, hello Sprint. Hopefully Sprint doesn't screw up their prices as well in the future.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jman42028:
This is very dissapointing to me....sad really. Unfortunately in my area vzw is the only carrier that is reliable. Sprint is total garbage here and att isn't much better. My discount will help a LOL with this. However I'm still on my agent line for some reason ( left the company over 6 months ago lol) so at this moment it doesn't effect me much. But now I might as well get my gf a smartphone for the $10 difference. I think everyona wanted share plans on vzw....but I was hoping for something like sprint does. $150 a month for two smps. These New plans are obviously more than that. But alas....in this area...u get what you pay for.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
You should check out my conversation on Twitter with vzwsupport lol.... You don't have to change your plan and lose unlimited data..... "If you pay full retail price for your new phone" lol. I won't put my question in reply to that on here.... Mr highway and juzz might not like it :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk842018:
I actually updated few months ago for inc 2. Dropped in water and didnr have the 100$ for new inc2 through insurance. Wirefly had a special where I upgraded through them I could upgrade again to a razr maxx for 29.99$ only phone I could get. My inc2 still works. Just volume rocker is messed up and don't wanna charge without messing with port. I got to keep my unlimited data they said lucky I could upgrade again before they change to shared plans.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
Yeah... Lucky for sure. Otherwise you lose unlimited.... Unless you pay full retail price for your upgrade.... :) lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] SR3TLAW:

Yea but CS. That means ill be driving a moto droid.razar maxx and not my inc 2. I have not a clue about anything about this phone. I may trade wife.for.her inc2. Ice.heard bad things about mkto blur.

I've never been a fan of blur either. I will say though, I was playing with that when it came out and its pretty sweet. I almost got that instead but couldn't leave sense lol. Your wife has the new firmware that there's no ruu or anything for too, doesn't it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk842018:
Yes.that's correct. That's my problem lol. People have downgraded and rooted but ran into a lot of problems. I guess since mine isvrooted and 98% functioning ill just use it also, it.didnt get battery wet the water mark on battery is fine but the one on phone is half red and half spotted, od barley got wet. Went in bout half inch of water. Just enough through, the razr was only phone that has a promotion on it where it made it 29.99$ really has no choice. My inc2 wouldn't even boot up. It would go to hboot screen and.than keep going down through.the.list real fast where the.voulme rocker is fried. I finally got it by holding vol up and.power and.it.booted in safe mode.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] funky_snowman:
yah, ill be leaving verizon. their pricing is getting more absurd by the day.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
I'm just curious. What plans are you guys on and how much data are you using? These plans don't seem all that bad to me. I have 700 minutes unlimited text an unlimited data on 2 smart phones. I use about 2.5gb per phone on a pretty heavy month (I use wifi for all app updates and rom downloads) so the 6gb would be perfect for me which would cost $160. Right now I pay $180 which would be the same cost as 10gb on the new plans.

Also did you guys see you can add 2gb for $10 instead of the overage charge of $15 per 1gb. If you go crazy on your data or have basic phones I can see the concern. Other than that I like it personally.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Travisdroidx2:
Other than that I like it personal

What is there to like? For the last 10 years i have been a loyal customer to verizon. 3 smartphones in the family. Been unlimited for years now will be forced to share data. What is good about that? I do not use tether or use tons of data since i am usually on wifi since 3 g is so slow compared to 4g. However i like not having to worry about it and watching my data. Also pisses me off i am only one in the family stuck on 3g and my upgrade is in october. So i will have to pay full price for the phone or change carriers. I will be another one taking my money to another carrier. Screw verizon!!!! I am glad getting screwed by verizon makes some of you happy! Not me!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
I share 1400 minutes between 2 phones. For the $180 I can have unlimited everything on Sprint.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
Oh ok. How much data do you average?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
I don't generally keep track of it since I have unlimited, but I looked the other day when this came about and I'm at 3.5 gb so far this cycle just for myself. The other phone on my account uses Pandora a lot and a couple other streaming apps, but o haven't checked the usage yet.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] klabit87:
Just so you guys know. If you get a discount on your plan for whatever reason then if you go to the new plan the discount will take the percentage off of the primary line and the data package.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
Thanks man! I was gonna call about this but planned to wait until it started.

I'm sure the new plans won't work for everyone, but for me I think it will be good. For everyone else I just encourage you to look at your actual usage for a few months and try to utilize wifi as much as possible. Its a big change to go to limited data for those of us on grandfathered unlimited but I know we are all on vzw for a reason. Hopefully at least most of us can save some money and still get a plan that fits our needs!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
It sounds like 10gb could work for you. I hope you'll look into it and at least consider it before changing carriers. If not, it was awesome having you around in both the Eris forums and here! I definitely appreciate all of your work. The other users of whichever phone you end up with next will be lucky to have you around! I wish you the best of luck wherever you end up!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thenaut:
these new plans actually help me. my current plan is 700 shared minutes, unlimited texts and 2gb for both lines on the account. I joined verizon last august and unlimited data had already been done away with. I left T-mobile because i was willing to pay more for better service. with these new plans I will save about 20 dollars per month, and gain unlimited talk. honestly, i worry about going over on my minutes more than i do data. it's really difficult for me to justify paying for unlimited data. i use WiFi constantly and i honestly never come close to my current 2 GB limit.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bsmitty83:
Just for clarification, does anybody know if say you buy a 4G phone at retail price and have it activated by Verizon on my unlimited 3g plan, I'll be able to use the 4G network? If that's the case it would be worth taking the hit up front for a full price phone (or whatever I can snipe off ebay :))

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] seejoshplay:
Just to add a counterpoint, I checked my use (along with that of family) and the three of us average 2.5 gb / month every month for the last six months. We are now all saving a bit of coin, which is nice.

But, the caveat is non of us have a busianess (or other) need for constant connection, and we all have wifi everywhere.

So... While losing unlimited is certainly painful for many, do yourself and take a look at your consumption over time.

Just my 2cents.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bsmitty83:
Data consumption is my biggest factor because there are months when ill only use 2gb, but there's other months where I'll blow 10 - 20gb, so for me I think having the unlimited plan is a better option for me just because I can't take a hit one month and have a couple hundred dollar bill because of overages. But if I didn't use that much or was even more consistent with use id drop my gf'd plan.
