Now thru July 17, when you buy a smartphone with a plan you will get 3,000 bonus reward zone points along with your 500 every day points - a $70 value. And for a limited time all accessories are 30% off!

Offer valid thru july 17 2012 bonus points will offer required a new or upgraded 24 month agreement with the participating carrier and activation thru bestbuy mobile solutions. Points will post about 45 days after phone is shipped. $70 is in rewardzone certificates. valid on rewardzonemobile.com. not valid in best buy stores or bestbuy.com

it could be a decent to good deal, especially for those with family or SERO-P plans.

how the points work: when the points are in your rewardzone account, you convert them to rewardzone certificates at myrz.com. You can print them out to use at bestbuy stores or use them for bestbuy.com order. most people can use them to buy amazon gift cards at BB stores, if your store carries them. (some states BB dont sell amz GC)

this *should* also stack with their freedom to choose $50 offer if you have signed up for it.

*Update*

All Silver members: Call 1-866-797-7367 and if you have already bought a phone within 45 days like the Galaxy S III they will give you the 3500 points

Is it possible to Odin back to stock without a computer? I am currently in the process of packing and moving and have no internet or computer right now.

I want to flash back to stock because of some rebooting and staying off issues with my phone.

Thanks for the suggestion I just tried it right now and it just said this device is not supported. To create a system dump.

So I'm guessing it doesn't work for the t989.

You should really think about getting the Ram Mount.

View attachment 1193747

I have been using this for about a week now and I am in love. The arm piece is just a little long bit it mounts perfectly to the bike and doesn't move.

I now have my phone mounted with my its protective gel case for my speakerphone listening pleasure while I ride.

I will attach a picture of the mount on the bike later.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jcazes:
Which model is this, and on what type of bike are you mounting it? I've been looking for a solid bike mount.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mship:
Here are a few more pictures to get a view of the bike and how it's mounted.

The bike is a hybrid mount road bike that I use for a 6 mile (each way 5 day a week commute). I use the phone as a speaker for music and GPS when needed. The mount has three types of prongs that re of different length depending on the size of your device. The mount is originally made for a motorcycle but the base is for a bicycle. I use the mount with my casemate case and it fits snuggley. I bought it from Amazon for $41.27, which I think is a steal considering that I could fit all types of device on believe it will last at least two to three years with regular use based on the strength of the material. You can easily take the mount and the arm off the bike so that it wont be easily stolen and you have to screw the based on to your bike.

If you do happen to buy one the instructions are not very clear, but the screws go through the bottom of the holder and the nuts though the top.

Well worth the money in my opinion. You can even buy other bases that will go in your car or on other bikes or other areas.

Hi guys!

Fist of all, I'm so sorry about my poor english, I'm from Brasil and you know, thats not my native language

My friends, my uncle come from Japan and give me a Acro SO-02C, I already have a Arc, so I just try to flash the Acro with Arc firmware (ICS Stock), but the phone just get infinity boot loop. I can't enter fastboot mod, Its just like the phone dont ir recognize the drivers, I try many tutorials, in english and portuguese, but I can't. My question is: Will some FW work normal on my Acro? I need to unlock bootloader in order do flash my phone? What can I do?

Thanks in advice.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Firstly, you should not flash arc firmware on acro.

You can use SEUS(for locked bootloader on stock firmware and kernel) to flash your acro with the latest firmware available for acro.

If you have the ftf file for acro, you can flash via flashtool (need unlocked bootloader)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ces1nha:
SEUS will work now that I have flashed my Acro with Arc fw?

I can't find any ftf from Acro =/ btw, Idk how to unlock Acro bootloader anyway.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
You might have to take it to a service centre, and use this as a valuable lesson, don't flash things that aren't for your device, especially when there's NO FW to be found for it on xda.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] link-in:

As long as you connect your phone to pc, SEUS can detect it. You just need to choose acro as your phone type and let seus do its thing

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] sprodigy:
Hey guys,

I used to have an OG Droid back when it first came out. Then I grabbed the Thunderbolt when it was released. What a mistake that was :( Although it was very powerful and flashy, the battery life is terrible and frustrating. I want to go back to something tried and true until my contract is up at the end of the year.

I have someone who will sell me an OG Droid on the cheap, but I cannot remember how the battery life was. If I can get 12 hours out of it, i'd be happy. Right now my Thunderbolt loses 50% battery in 2-3 hours without me doing ANYTHING (im rooted and running a custom kernel, rom, etc as well). Can anyone offer any first-hand accounts on the Droid? I want to come back!

Thanks!

I have the 32GB version of the transformer TF300 and have now found that I only have about 14GB left. What I'm wondering is how can I free up storage and can I move game data files of like FIFA or gameloft games to the micro SD card to free up memory?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
i dont think so mate s it normally means the internal sd card but i had about 6 gb free before i started trying to update and to cut a long story short i used titanium back up and did a factory restore and now i have nearly 19gb free
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Thanks, I'm without root though so can't really use titanium backup. Not really too sure how and why to use it actually, except from to backup apps
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
Its good for backing up your apps so if you have to wipe your tablet or do a factory restore you can have everything back in just a few clicks
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
I had to do that but just copied the files to a micro SD card and installed every app again. Seemed to work fine.

Dont know which games to get rid of really, even though I barely play any.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
did you do a factory restore and wipe the data, and if you did di it free up some space??

and the reason titanium backup is so useful is because you it backs up the data for a app too so you wont lose your saves for your games,
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Yeah, I kept some of my saves too. I did free up data but reinstalled every app anyways.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
sorted mate how much space you got left now??
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
I haven't done it now, just did it in the past, not much I can do really. How does TB work though? Do you copy the folder to a micro sd card or something?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
yep it backs up each app individuallyand puts them in a folder on your internal memory then you just move it to a sd card then when you want to restore them just tell tb to search for a backup and it will find the one on the sd card then install everything back and then just wait for it to to its thing
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
in titaniums settings you can change the folder where you want your backups to be, just set it on a folder on your external sd card.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Most of the samsung roms are buggy, except for the stock based one, unless it's a nexus. So not much to switch to when we have so many stock based roms here and a few aosp ones to come once a kernel is finalized, which should be soon.
[HTC Amaze 4G] imxsteezin:

[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
The sensation has a smoother more stable AOKP port than the GS2 from tmo does, how's that for convincing ya to stay? Plus AOSP isn't for everyone so I wouldn't really recommend it unless you like raw vanilla android, which doesn't offer much eye candy the way sense and all these pretty UI's do, lol.

Also they use cheap plastic to make the phone wich makes it not so friendly if you drop it the amaze back cover is made with steel so I would never have to worry about dropping it if I do the damage can easily be fixed with a new back cover with the galaxy if you drop it on the corner on each side it can leave a nasty dent that can't be replaced

Actuall i think you can. If you look at the corner there appears to be a gap there. I bet thats an opening to access the s-pen. I went with the super thick super cheap extended battery. $8 for a batter that lasts me a couple days is nice. If you, or anyone else for that matter, gets this please take some pictures for us so we know what we're dealing with in thickness and effectivness. And and let me know if it helps you ipad out any.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] knightblaze:
I dunno, if you look at picture 4 and 7, it shows the word "IN". 4 looks like where the stylus would be, but on picture 7 its the same spot on the phone just flipped and it shows the USB port for charging it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Looks like a good alternative for $35. Total charge capacity would be 5500 mAh, assuming all 3000 mAh of the Brando battery can be transferred to the phone. That would be about the same as the Mugen 5400 mAh extended battery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
It's not a passthrough, so the placement doesnt matter much. The thickness will prevent it from being used it most/all docks. According to the site you must take this off the phone in order to charge it or the phone. I do tons of supplemental charging on and off through the day that this is absurd and out of the question for me. But if you find yourself only charging at night only then this is not likely to be a big issue for you, only you will need to have a second charger at your night stand to charge them both.
