[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
ok so please bear with me on this one as its a kinda weird issue, some time i can install .apk files perfectly but some times they wont and can use my file manager to get to the file click on it and choose package installer and then i get the install or cancel box pop up and i cant click the install button but i can click the cancel button, if i reboot the .apk will install fine, does any one else have this or anything similar??????

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Xcor3:
Hello guys, I just wanna show you guys the cases i got so far.

So far ive gotten

http://www.ebay.com/itm/230819605448?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Case with holster

http://www.ebay.com/itm/251086236235?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 3x Quicksand (rock-like cases)

The cases are really good. They are easy to put the phone in but they fit good and you wont find the phone falling out of them. The case that came with the holster I would say is the best of them all. The quality is superb and its just beautiful. The quicksand cases kinda feel too soft but they are great. They all look stylish and they don't add bulk to the phone.

P.S

I'm sorry about my linty screen.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mierdaseca:
So I was playing with voltages, and by accident checked "set at boot",the pone froze, and had to restart it, but it freezes again at pin entry, before I can set them back to default.

How can I solve this? I would post on slim ics thread , but I dont have enough posts.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mierdaseca:
Ok,managed to fix by installing another kernel (I was using Siyah), but the problem persist once I go back to Siyah.

Where does it saves the undervolt configuration?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oz_90:
If you used extweaks, go into Recovery Mode, there is an specially area for siyah kernel configuration. There you can erase the exTweaks configuration.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mierdaseca:
Thanks,tried that,but didnt work.I changed the voltages from "ASS" (the Slim ICS configuration menu) ,not from Extweaks.

Using any kernel that supports voltage controls freezes :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oz_90:
Try to enter recovery, wipe data, chache and dalvik. Then install another ROM. If you can't, maybe reinstalling the same rom can solve it.

Edit: the wipe data will erase all your apps and other stuff, but not photos or music.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mierdaseca:
Managed to fix it.

With a kernel that doesnt let you change voltages, I set the fovernor to performance.Then flashed Siyah again, and didnt freeze, so I could untick the "set at boot" voltages and fixed it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oz_90:
Thats good. Maybe right now you don't want to mess with voltages anymore jaja, but if you want it later you should visit this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1610044.

Remember to use the applications that are specially made for every kernel, and have an "emergency exit" if you mess up with something again.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Randomacts:
If it does burn any battery and I mean any I will be disabling it as I don't use it. If I ever need it I'll just enable it again. But until I hear that it takes any battery at all I'll leave it on.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] krohnjw:
No. NFC is completely off unless the device is on and unlocked when it is on consumption is very low.

They actually talked about this at IO as well - breaking down battery drain while the device was on and in use NFC accounted for 0.5% of power consumption (out of 100). Again this is while the device was on. Given that it's disabled when the screen is off you're looking at less than that averaged over regular use of the device.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] abstraction21:
Thanks for the info. I have been using NFC all day and haven't noticed any difference in battery at all. 0.5% is hardly noticeable and disabling it would be pointless. With that said, I flashed a new ROM before clearing the data from Google Wallet so I likely bricked my GWallet anyway so it wouldn't make much difference to me anyway.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sansintierra:
I'm trying to recover the Bravo to stock after getting almost bricked. I downgraded the HBOOT to 0.93.00001 using AlphaRev method and used the RUU executable (at this point it's unclear to me whether I used the right one or not)... but the downside was I lost S-OFF in the process.

So I tried using the Revolutionary method to gain S-OFF, and got stuck on the "waiting for device" screen. It turned out that the ADB doesn't find the device, even after reinstalling the drivers.

Fastboot DOES show the device (via "Fastboot devices" command), but it displays the "12 signature verify fail" when trying to flash a new HBOOT.

Right now, the phone screen is stuck at this:

BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

MICROP-051d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18

RUU

It won't let me choose HBOOT/FASTBOOT (apparently it boots in Fastboot mode automatically), or enter recovery.

¿Is there any way to gain S-OFF to install the HBOOT, recovery and ROM?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colin_404:
ADB doesnt work in Hboot AFAIK. And not much help to u.

But thought it would save u playing with drivers.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muellersmattes:
May be USB bricked? Have a look bortak's guide, it's covered there. As you're still s-on, you can't flash a hboot from fastboot now.

Edit: I see that you're stuck in RUU mode now; if you can't boot the system now you can still use the 2.3.3 RUU (from htcdev). After that you should be able to run revolutionary.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinaldex:
I have a rooted TF101 on Honeycomb on a custom kernel, overlocked, everything works fantastic (no complaints about wireless, battery life, etc). Is there any particular reason I should worry about upgrading to an ICS build, ie is there something I'm missing such as application compatibility, super-amazing features, etc that I should worry about?

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
Pros-

Faster UI

More optimized = more battery

UI is cleaner

Few extra features like face unlock

Cons-

There are more bugs in ICS but they seem to be limited to some people rather than across the board.

Some people experience RR(Random Reboots) and SOD(Sleep of death)

In my opinion the pros outweigh the cons but it is personal preference and how your hardware accepts ICS
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
The biggest reason for me is the Global Spellchecking feature of ICS! I couldn't live without it now!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theratdude64:
What about Compatibility? My Evo 3D has ICS with Sense 4.0 and my games don't play on it. I have GTAIII, Modern Combat 3, and Dungeon Hunters. It's really frustrating they don't work on the phone but at least they do on the tablet. So I'm scared to go ICS and kill what Compatibility I do have :(

[Nexus 7 General] sark666:
Yesh, I didn't like this part:

I've never seen a tablet screen do this. Very disconcerting. As a side, what does the price of this do to other android tablet makers? Like imagine your Samsung, yeah it's great that you can take this OS for free and make a tablet but then google is selling a tablet at cost (cause they have other motives than selling widgets). I'm just wondering if this would make other hardware manufacturers bow out of the future generations of tablet making.
[Nexus 7 General] thebobp:
The Kai platform was already designed to sell tablets at sub-$200 prices (presumably with a profit), and the profit for the 8GB Nexus was lower-bounded at $15. For the 16GB, probably much more.

So the tech to make profits at this level is already there, and I see this price competition as only a good thing. Of course, this is just a guess since we can't know exactly how well other companies are able to compete, but in the worst case scenario they can partner with NVIDIA (a terrible option for us consumers, but still an option).
[Nexus 7 General] sark666:
Well, hopefully it's spurs on cheaper tablets and not companies pulling out of the tablet market.

But that ghosting thing has me concerned. I was putting aside my no sdcard/hdmi gripe and probably buying this. I still will probably but I'd like to see how bad the ghosting is.

And say something stays on the screen for a long time? Like a hud in a video game. Could it result in screen burn and not simply ghosting? Just a problem you never hear about with any display these days never mind tablets.

here's a write-up on with some screenshots:

http://www.androidauthority.com/nexus-7-ghosting-issues-affect-some-displays-99349/

Hopefully, it's only with the white units that were given out at the google i/o but I don't see why? I can't see the displays changing so late in the game.
[Nexus 7 General] RMXO:
I don't have any ghosting, bad luck of them to get a bad batch.
[Nexus 7 General] SteveAwesome:
Wow. Very good review. Its nice to see someone's view in writing. Reviewers are getting lazy lately. Casey brings a fresh view and insight to new tech. I'll look forward to her next writing.
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
Ars Technica can go take a hike, they won't ever get a web hit from me ever again, they lost all credibility the moment they started employing fanboy writers like Ben Kuchera.

Without even reading it, I can predict what it will say, it will complain about the 1.6MP camera (despite the iPad2 having 700kP camera), it will complain about the lack of a MicroSD card (despite the iPad also not having any expandable storage). All these "tech" sites don't know their arse from their elbow, it's never a level playing field with them.

In their eyes, the iPad is the best things since sliced bread, because Apple just rolled up with a truckload of advertising cash. but when a product comes along that has similar limitations, but at half the price, they are the first to jump on the whinge bandwagon.

I also don't need to read reviews to tell me what I have bought is a fine product.
[Nexus 7 General] Brac20:
You should read the review before accusing them of biase.
[Nexus 7 General] thebobp:

[Nexus 7 General] MaxCarnage:
Nice to see they responded. I'm not a "stand in a pitch black room and measure light bleed" kind of guy so I wasn't really worried about it anyway, but hopefully the problem was limited to pre-production units as indicated.
[Nexus 7 General] akarol:
Pretty fair review. My only gripes was the criticism regarding the split keyboard. Uhhh, we have about 10 options for split keyboards in the Market. They praised Apple's split keyboard, but they don't give users the options of switching to whatever keyboard you want. DUMB!

Also, I understand the criticism for the camera quality, but I don't really think it's fair. It's 1.2MP camera is on-par with the high-end devices out there. I would understand it if they complained about the lack of rear camera, but criticizing the quality of the front one is just not valid to me as their pedestal (new iPad) is much inferior in resolution.
[Nexus 7 General] ejkeebler:
actually the image definitely was way worse on skype than the ipad's, i wonder how much of that has to do with skype app. I know in the past the mlb at bat app video streaming was awful, but this years it's been just as nice as the iphone i think....

Thanks for linking to this review.

The write-up seems fair to me. Yes, her overall judgement is not as glowing as most earlier reviewers'.

I take it as a compliment that she spent so much time comparing it to the newest iPad. She also trumpeted the Nexus 7's lower cost and stated it performs similarly to the iPad 2. That's not shabby.

[Nexus 7 General] mystilleef:
That's the best review for the Nexus 7 I've read so far. I like the comparison to the iPad.
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
A caved in and read the review (i made sure my advert blocker was on, as they don't deserve a y money from me). All the predictable gripes that are fine for an ipad costing over twice the price, and they video chat to an ipad and when I the picture quality wasn't upto scratch, blamed the nexus (despite camera pics being fine). It's likely it was actually the ipad decoding it poorly, because it wasn't native and proprietary apple quicktime
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I really liked the fact that she revised the camera section of the review when

a couple of commentators mentioned you could enable the camera app with a download.

How many reviewers have you seen change a review based on comments...

I will be looking for other reviews by that site - head and shoulders above other sites.
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Most of the complaint was on the front camera... all skypes fault there. Just skyped the family while away on business and we both looked just like the video described using galaxy nexus phones. I don't recall it being that bad in the past. Voice and video were horrible. Shame on Skype for gimping the application. Talk video chat was much better and clearer even with my poor data connection.

Its not a bad idea but I can see how it would cause accidentally locking/unlocking. The Unlock button on my phone is a bit unresponsive so it would be convenient.
