[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovenokia:
Does the stock nexus 7 home screen rotate like a regular android tab into landscape or portrait, if not then i will need to get a launcher to remedy that problem. Does anybody know if that could be changed to have the homescreen rotate, if it cannot?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ky0nkyon:
It does rotate as usual.

My life for Aiur
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovenokia:
i have never seen that happen in any video though?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chief1978:
Surely you are joking?

There are videos of YouTube being used etc.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I have gone through every video I could find on youtube and not one of them showed the tablet with its home screen in landscape mode.

This review says it was clearly meant for portrait only because most apps dont rotate. I wonder if all the demo units just had auto rotate turned off?

http://tablet.pcmag.com/?ref=299697&url=http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2406446,00.asp

Another review that says the home screen does not rotate.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskostar:
There's an icon on the notification bar that locks the orientation to portrait or landscape or lets you have it free, most likely the presentation unit had it locked to portrait. Must say it would be weird as heck for a tablet to be made for portrait mode.

Also, awmagawd, the first review has a white version of the Nexus7, love it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovenokia:
I have looked through many YouTube videos too and didnt notice it either, I hope with rooted, the home screen could rotate.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcoaster:
Wondering the same thing! I definitely hope it rotates...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zpithika:
I haven't seen any video showing landscape mode either. But soon enough custom launchers will be updated for JB and the problem will be solved. Nova and apex are updated quite frequently and I would assume they have plans to implement the new Jelly Bean features.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
I've read reviewers who've stated that it does NOT rotate the home screens. I suppose they all could have missed the rotation lock, but it could easily be just for apps.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovenokia:
hopefully nova will update by the time that the things gets in all of our hands.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeux_1:
The screen rotate as expected

http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/29/3125396/google-nexus-7-review 7:39 for the example.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil-t:
That's an APP rotating, people are talking about the 'launcher'...

I use my tablets in landscape more then portrait, so although I trust all rotatable apps will be fine, it's disjointing to go back to the launcher and have it 90 degrees out..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atmazzz:
The Verge said,

One thing that struck me as odd, however, is the fact that the homescreen doesn’t have a landscape view. As in, you cannot turn the tablet to landscape when you’re on the homescreen. It’s actually a bit frustrating when you move from a landscape app back home — and I can’t figure out why Google would have removed this functionality, which was present in Honeycomb.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acomiskey:
What I find mostly odd about not having a landscape launcher mode is the fact that the pins on the side for the to be released dock would allow the tablet to be docked in landscape! Perhaps there will be a separate dock launcher?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atmazzz:
It will look a little silly sitting in the dock Asus announced today.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
I have jellybean installed on my Galaxy Nexus and the homescreen rotates perfectly.

so i don't understand why it wouldn't rotate for them unless autorotate was off.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyHoyle:
My TF does it but my Galaxy Nexus never has (and it doesn't on Jelly Bean either). I think it's one of the differences between 'phone mode' and 'tablet mode'.

3rd party hacks can enable homescreen rotating on ICS so it won't stay fixed for long.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heat361:
Google wants n7 to be used in portrait on the home screen and it does not rotate idk why they did this but its something that can be changed by devs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ^Fs:
I was getting a bootloop after I installed Koush's Jellybean CWM flashable zip and when I tried to boot back into recovery it no longer worked.

I can get it into Fastboot, but my PC isn't recognizing the device via ADB anymore.

I can also get it into Download mode.

Help on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I'm using the GSM model

EDIT2: My Fastboot drivers somehow screwed up. Fixed them and recovered an image from fastboot.
[Nokia Lumia 800] jmoak:
I got my hand on a nokia lumia 710. Turns out it was a demo unit and is running demo software. Is there a way for me to manually update the software? it won't find an update on its own.

Any help would be appreciated
[Nokia Lumia 800] jmoak:
I was finally able to flash a stock version from NaviFirm.

OS Version 7.10.7740.16

Is that the latest update? My phone doesn't appear to be finding another update on its own.

Also could someone tell me what there phone says for total storage of the device?
[Nokia Lumia 800] giodelgado:
hi, how were you able to flash the firmware? I just got a demo unit and I can't flash it with Nokia care Suite, are you using a specfific version?

I would appreciate your help

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] FireRaider:
Recently my Car Home apps stopped launching when I dock into my Samsung car dock.

I figure it might be AOKP had something funky going on so I nandroided back to a month old version that I know used to work. It still didnt work.

Very odd I thought, and restored todays AOKP that I had just updated.

Then I started fiddling around with the power cord, unplugging it from the car. And the darn Phone switched to Car Home mode! What the heck! I plug the power back into the cigarette lighter port and it exited Car Home mode!

So apparently its somehow being triggered backwards. Has anyone had this issue? Is this normal behavior? I found nothing by searching 'car home backwards'.

I did a data wipe the first time I noticed it, and it didn't help.

I thought maybe the connector was dirty and was going to blow it out with some compressed air. Right before I got to that point I noticed the power plug made it switch so I didn't get to the air.

It may have started around the time I first flashed the Fluxi XX kernel but I have since flashed AOKP several times which flashes over the top so I doubt thats an issue.

Any ideas for me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] FireRaider:
Ok, in case someone else has this issue with the Samsung car dock and searches, I fixed it.

I got out the compressed air and blew the bejeezus out of the connector on the phone and the dock. Now it functions as normal.

And as a reference for trouble shooting, If the phone is in the dock and the power plug is removed, the phone stops charging of course, but does not exit dock mode.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hajotking:
With the instructions published in this forum, I was able to root my NT 16GB, to build an SD card, from which I can boot CM7. I am just trying to install the internal CM7 version, however, the link given on page 101 of the CM 7 dev part leads to a rather dubious web-page with a free and a premium download. The free download opens another dubious web-page and the premium web-page was locked by my virus scanner because it is infested.

Could anybody give me a valid link for the download of the internal CM7 version, please.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] miniblue:
Look on the (New) cm7 support thread under general. A link is in post 1059 to a stable version that has deep sleep and a wifi that doesn't die off. I switched to that last wee from the sd card version. You can read a bit in that thread to see if that is the CM7 for you.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] psxpetey:
One game I really wish gameloft woukd release for the play is : The warrior within prince of persia. I played it on my ios when I had it and loved it it was awesome. Maybe gameloft just needs more people bugging them this game would kick ASS on the play!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
I'm with you - I just love trilogy of PoP - SoT, WW and T2T. Unfortunelly, I think it's too old game, and this is Gameloft you know, we won't get this game. Never. I'm crying too :( ;/.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] psxpetey:
I thought with the whole gta max payne thing they might rethink it I wish theyed just put the whole trilogy on stupid gameloft
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
But GTA and Max Payne was relased by Rockstar Games - it's completely another story, bro - Gameloft won't make it - that's the true. I would love play whole trilogy on Play too (gamepad is made for it 200%), but....No way, sorry.

Thinking about upgrading. Wandering what would be the best phone to get for roms speed and battery.
[General Topics] priestking23:
I would get the samsung galaxy s3. The more people that are gonna buy it, the more people that are going to make roms for it. Although, im not too sure about how good the battery life is
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] MacMueller:
Is there an app that will root my Samsung? ( besides z4root and ginger break )
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] nightfire37:
Yes. and older version of Super One Click but it depends on your Android version and you have to do it on your computer. If you have 2.3.5 you can, if u have 2.3.6, u cant.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mr32:
Super one click makes use of gingerbreak, if gingerbreak doesn't work, superoneclick won't be able to root your device...

It is possible with the 2.3.6 version, if you're not scared of flashing with Odin (via your computer). The disadvantage of flashing is that you take more risks, it can go wrong. It's your choice...

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gspuser123:
Don't you need to be rooted to flash
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mr32:
No, flashing is transferring software/firmware via the micro-usb port of your device. To do that, you need a flash tool (for the Players you'll need Odin3) and a rooted ROM and kernel (just take a look in the development section on XDA for this device, you will see a lot of different custom ROMs and kernels, each with different goodies and stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gspuser123:
Oh okay I thought it had to be rooted that's why I rooted my player the used Odin to flash

Love your work ACS. :victory:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gtuansdiamm:
Its till up on the acs forum

Maybe the team disbanded or went to a different phone

But it was pretty awesome
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
Got up this morning and found my hotspot wasn't working and then I noticed my 3G wasn't lit up so after going through flashing, reflashisg, and a few trips down the odin road decided I had a bad phone and this evening I called Sprint to get a replacement. After finally passing the questionnaire and proving I was who I said I was she all the sudden tells me she had great news, "There's nothing wrong with your phone because data is turned off by Sprint because of excessive Data use and roaming data use"???? My phone has unlimited data and no roaming I explained at which point she told me that I used more than the average data user uses and Sprint has the right to cancel my contract at anytime! So, I guess I'm looking for a new carrier that I can use my E4GT on. Be looking through the forums to find a solution so any ideas would be greatly appreciated although be hard to start somewhere else as I've been with them 12 years or better! So those of you not knowing this remember that unlimited is not necessarily true.
[Epic 4G General] GuestK00145:
Is the hotspot that you used the sprint or the hacked one?
[Epic 4G General] kingbo777:
All carriers dont allow for excessive data roaming usage even on unlimited plans. If you basically are using more than 50 percent of your data off network you will get cancelled. Always check your roamin data cap when you sign up with a carrier.
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
Well if you have an official hot spot and pay you might be able to call sprint and ask if you could talk to somebody higher up and see if they could put you back on sprint
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
let me point out the obvious. this is not the et4g forum.
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
The hacked one is the only one I used.
[Epic 4G General] GuestK00145:
That's the reason for termination, you exceeded your data using the hotspot, and sprint can end your contact immediately because of this.
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
Don't think Data Roaming should apply as was from my home.
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
Sorry I posted in wrong spot there brother but I also own Epic 4G and so small consolation as maybe useful info here too as it probably would have happened to me on that one if it were my primary data phone as it used to be. Thanks though for at least one of us being on the ball.
[Epic 4G General] Speedin07si:
How much data did you use?

Sent from My Epic Ice Cream Sandwich With Sprinkles!!!
[Epic 4G General] bit1:
Wait.This sounds great! You can buy a new phone discounted and if you use too much data they'll voluntarily break your contact and you get to keep the phone and go somewhere else with it? Or sell it for profit and then go elsewhere?I don't see a downside. As another asked how much data did it take to have them cancel you? Currently I easily do about 4-5 gigs on 4G and about 2-3 3G and I've never got as letter, but I don't really roam.
[Epic 4G General] GuestK00145:
He used hacked hotspot data, which is a no no
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
Yup this was it. I don't think the roaming really had much to do with it at all. The OP even said he 'only used it for home' which leads me to believe he used his hacked hotspot as his home mainline.

Sprint has caps for hotspot plans, I believe it's around 5GB, and that's well known. Hotspot data != cellular data in their eyes. If you used a hacked hotspot app (especially if you're in a 4G area) as your home internet, I am not one bit surprised you got the boot. And frankly in my mind...rightfully so.
[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
Last Month I used about 1Gb of 3G. And 6Gb of 4G. That's how ****ty sprints service is. It takes me so long to do anything on 3G. And 4G is okay but all I did with it was download Game data and other things like Xda or stream music over 4g if possible.

BTW I DONT EVEN USE HOTSPOTS HAVE NO USE FOR THEM
[Epic 4G General] Speedin07si:
i think it funny people think sprint doesn't know when people use the hotspot and if they notice your not paying for it they know your rooted, and breaking their policies. I applaud sprint for putting their foot down when needed. Rules and policies are made for a reason. If one party breaks those rules or policies, it's the others free will to walk away from their agreement.

When you use a crap done of data its a invite for sprint to open up a file or 2 and snoop around in your account. The data that gets sent to and from a computer is different from data being use surfing web on your phone.

The "unlimited data" is for phone data, as it has been said tether plans and air cards have a 5GB, well now its 2GB and 6GB limits with people grandfathered in on their 5GB.

[Epic 4G General] Fire n mage:
Yea.. tethering is a fine line to walk on. I don't tether much, but when I do, I use sparringly!
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
A mere 91G's :cyclops:
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
Not really sure where you say you got the "The OP even said he 'only used it for home' " from and being a detective is probably not in your future but just to let you know for information sake it was not "home mainline" as I have DSL for that but when streaming video's and the such I would use it mostly for downloading Roms and such for here and not much else! :rolleyes: I have learn my lesson on that and no 4G in my area! So I will take my medicine and lesson learned and hopefully you will learn a little from this too. ;)
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
And here in lies the problem terms like "Unlimited" and they are not ..... how is using such a false statement as a term when, well lets say a used car dealer were to use the same term.... he'd be in jail!

I learned more from this post, I think, than any other one post I've ever read but to be honest I would know because when I got the 1st android phone and signed the contract I must admit I didn't read everything and don't know many people that do. I didn't know what a rom was much less hotspot (hacked or not) and saw an ad for XDA-Forums and as I have built a pretty large number of pc's over the years I got the interest and this won't slow me down as I still hope to learn to theme and build my own rom.
[Epic 4G General] Speedin07si:
And i stand by my statement "unlimited data" means unlimited to the PHONE not every other electronic device you have. Soo no its not a false statement. If you want to use data to tether its considered a ADD ON feature.

I bet if you use 10-20 gigs of data on your phone nothing will happen.

Sent from My Epic Ice Cream Sandwich With Sprinkles!!!
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
Tone it back a notch ;)

"Don't think Data Roaming should apply as was from my home".

This is what I read and I think it's easily mistakeable the sentance you wrote could lead someone to believe you used your hotspot at home. If you had DSL, why would you do this?

Anyway, won't go on any longer.
[Epic 4G General] schnowdapowda:
I think uncapped downloads would be more appropriate. Unlimited means what it means and last time I checked not being able to tether is a limit on your unlimited data. Making it a very false, misleading statement. But hey its cheap so i wont be leaving over it.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
TOS that you agreed to specifically says you may not use your phone as a modem (tethering). Sprint can tell but only exercises the right to deny service to those that abuse it. If you downloaded all those ROMs and streamed your videos on your phone alone, then transferred those things to your computer tou would have every right to be mad.
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
My DSL, when I'm streaming a movie say from netflix, and I'm downloading roms will stick, reload, or stop working so I would use it where everybody watching the movie could do so and like I said I could download roms and such with wireless wifi tether and everybody stayed happy (except for Sprint I now know)

Note: Sprint has contacted me and are trying to come up with a solution so all may not be lost as the manager put it. Afterall, I've been a Nextel/Sprint customer for 14 years I was told.
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
I think I now see the confusion (that I caused) and I'm sorry I didn't catch it earlier. Might not make any difference but my PC is connected to DSL and I did my rom downloads and watch some Netflix movies with their app and used my Asus Transformer as an extension of my phone for sd memory space for roms. My phone is is not connected to PC (and doubt it could handle the heat) at all. I would then transfer the roms, app's, themes, and the like to the PC via USB cable and that's were the PC begins and ends with the phone! Thanks for bringing that to my attention. ;)
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
OH, so if very little of that data was on hotspot then maybe they just need to get you an Airave to prevent roaming and for you to ease up a little on the streaming. Sounds like they may work it out with you but stay away from the hotspot as PC packets are different size then phone packets.
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I can relate with DSL...I have AT&T and it's pretty bad in the Burbs of Chicago.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Same here before I switched to cable.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
I am so glad I just bought the GSM Galaxy Nexus and switched to Tmobile. I know that when Sprint actually does light up their LTE, that people like this are going to absolutely ruin it for people like me. Much rather have a constant 6-8Mbps down on Tmobile with 5gb high speed then throttled to Sprint speeds, instead of Sprints LTE which will be 11-13Mbps for 30 minutes at night and probably 2-3 Mbps during peak use cause people are using their phones to torrent and crap.
[Epic 4G General] danipoak:
So what's the difference between using hacked hotspot data and the built in hotspot feature on CM9?
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Their both 'illegal'
[Epic 4G General] Colt10mm:
That is a good question I'd be interested in knowing the answer to as I had already admitted that I did not read all the fine print in our contract and also we pay an additional $10 a month for using an android phone of this type for which I don't know the reason for either???
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
There is no difference in Sprint's eyes. It is still using the phone as a modem. And the $10 a month was for all the data that the browser and apps will use on a Smartphone. It is a premium data charge due to the capability of the phone. The old non-internet ready phones do not use anywhere near as much data. That small surcharge was Sprint's attempt to keep prices low and still provide unlimited cell phone data. They had to put limits on hotspot, tablets and mobile card data.
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I thought Sprint said they were going to focus more on constant speed than top speed. Similar to what TMob does now. They were running tests on the network and I think some people were surprised at the speeds because no one was on it yet. Their answer was because it sounds like they're going to implement something similar to what TMob has.

Personally, I would MUCH prefer a constant, fast speed than something with stupid peaks and all too often lows.
[Epic 4G General] elzero26:
Well I better backoff on downloading. I already used 16.1 GB on 4g and 2.2 on 3g:angel:
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
I'll believe it when I see it. Sprint has been slacking for so long now that I cannot trust that they will do what needs to be done to make things right. I am in a first roll out zone for lte, and I have such little confidence in sprint that I am leaving for a prepaid plan on T-Mobile. I can't imagine them rolling out lte any better than wimax at first, which means constantly switching from 3g to lte if you are moving.
