[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] dzeedroid:
Still new with Android, but have a question. How do I change the dialpad colors?

Whose idea was it to put blue numbers on a black background and expect it to be read in sunshine?

Any simple way to change this?

Just found out that JB is the same, but no themes yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] demkantor:
umm, well I assume you have stock... if your not rooted all you can hope for is a theme or a dialer app in the market, if you are rooted you can unpack the apk and theme it the way you like (or ask someone to do it for you) or try another rom with colors you prefer
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] dzeedroid:
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I do have root and have tried numerous roms. Found a solution of sorts with a new dialpad app. I've got a lot to learn af far as this stuff goes.

people are dying senselessly around the world, and you are complaining that you don't have a silly ROM? really?

Oh **** off I was just hoping someone would have some news with a new ics or jb ROM.

I love how everyone always assumes that it's Samsung's decision. It isn't, or at least it isn't completely their decision. They're at the mercy of the chipset maker as to what they can release...they're using proprietary VIA code, and it's up to them as to how much Samsung is even allowed to release.

[Nexus 7 General] thunder9111:
I ask this because I need a tablet for my 1 month summer vacation soon, and I'm not sure if I can buy a Nexus 7 at that point yet.

Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 actually costs the same, or even cheaper than Nexus 7 right now. Tab 7.7 will also be only slightly more expensive, because the Nexus 7 will be sold at a higher price in my country after tax and so on.

So, disregarding the price, would 7.0 or 7.7 be a good choice too?

7.0 is very affordable, but i think the resolution isn't as good as the Nexus or 7.7?

7.7- I love the hardware, it's slim, AMOLED screen, and the battery life is great. I've heard about lagging though. However, I will probably root and use a stock android rom.. or use a launcher that replaces samsung's crap.

Both the samsung tablets also have sd card support. They do lack the development scene of the Nexus though.. but I am not someone who messes around with the custom rom a lot. I just need one simple clean one, then I'm good.

Would you choose the samsung tabs if they all cost the same price? why or why not?
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
Bought this tablet and gave my GTab 2 7" to my girlfriend and couldn't be happier. This thing is miles ahead of it.
[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
This is the best 7in. Out there period. In terms of power and quality. Nothing even remotely comes close to touching the power this device has. Or at least below the 10 in. Range. Get one asap! Lol. So happy to have one.

Samsung tab in 7in. Range sucks, spec wise. Not worth the extra cost to pay for a lower spec device. Samsung smiled screen good but nexus 7 has an excellent display also. Actually aside from infinity pad, nexus 7 has the highest dpi of any android tablet out. So the resolution looks even better and sharper. If we go by the way apple rates their screens, nexus 7 has a retina display. Nexus 7 has like 216 dpi. New ipad3 has 250 or something close to that. So the screen quality on nexus 7 is top notch for a tablet, especially an android one.
[Nexus 7 General] ikeny:
Isn't this the only 7 inch running quad core at the moment?

I had the GTab 7.7, it was the best sub-10" tablet, before the Nexus 7 came out (or if you must have 3G).

However, JB on it sucked due to wifi problem. Samsung is not exactly know if fast when it comes to OS updates.
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
Don't even have mine yet but I've been shafted by enough devices that I don't think I'll ever buy anything except official Nexus devices from here on out.
[Nexus 7 General] Haplodroid:
It's so smooth and fast' nothing lags' even web browsing is a great experience. My wife is extremely jealous...
[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
Yes, its the only quad core (really 5) tegra3 7in. Tablet out now. Plus its the only one that can play all tegra3 optimized apps n games. Plus its the only 7in. To have really fast ddr3 ram. Then aside from infinity pad, it has the highest dpi of any android tablet. Really making it have the best display for this size factor. Then its the only android tablet period running official jellybean firmware.

BUTTERY SMOOTH...very fast! Plain n simple it works great. I will likely buy my woman one also.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
Nexus 7 hands down.

I actually looked at the Galaxy 2 7" last night to see how it compares. The hardware across the board is grossly inferior. From the CPU, to the GPU to the resolution, to the DPI, etc.

The Samsung does have some added features (ie: gorilla glass, sd card, etc.), but it hurts where it counts.
[Nexus 7 General] adit9989:
If you disregard the price the new Toshiba 7.7 (AMOLED screen) is better as general hardware and construction, no question here.I think right now is th best 7" tablet you can buy. But it cost more than double which I can not justify (it is better but it's not "twice" as good).
[Nexus 7 General] Brad387:
My relative have one of these and, having set it up for her, it feels very nice in the hand and the few apps I loaded seemed really quick. Reviewers tend to be in agreement that this is, not just the best budget tablet, but the best Android tablet - period.
[Nexus 7 General] blahblahyoutoo:
there is ZERO reason to buy any other ~7" android tablet, whether taking into account pricing or not.
[Nexus 7 General] MMcCraryNJ:
I sold my Galaxy Tab 10.1 to buy the Nexus 7 and I absolutely do NOT regret doing it. I love it. Best selling decision I ever made.

And the original Tab line is BETTER than the Tab 2 line (look it up, they cut a lot of stuff to make it cheaper and the performance of the Tab 10.1 actually BESTED the Tab 2 line)

So bottom line, I can't see why anyone who choose the Tab 2 7 or 7.7 over the Nexus.
[Nexus 7 General] jrpbulk:
I have the nex7 and the gtab 7.7, disregarding price the gtab is better.
[Nexus 7 General] mariolouis:
Care to elaborate jr?
[Nexus 7 General] Tomatoes8:
Well he doesn't really have to. The 7.7 is a beast. Don't even think about how other Gakaxy Tabs stack up with the Nexus 7. That is like comparing the Galaxy Ace to the Galaxy Nexus, of course the Nexus wins that. The tab 7.7 however, is a different story. It is pretty much the Galaxy S3 of tablets.

The thing maybe a year old but it is still a beast.

-Super Amoled plus display at 197 ppi, not that much lower than the 215 ppi of the Nexus 7. Exact same resolution actually but a bigger screen on the 7.7

- lightest tablet ever

- one of the thinnest tablets ever, a lot thiner than the Nexus 7

- perfect size and form factor. Aluminum build but still feather light

- Best battery life out of any tablet including the iPad 2

- Exynos processor (dated now but insane a year ago)

Pretty much can go down the list. It is a premium device.

Now the Nexus 7 has some pretty big advantages, especially price, CPU, GPU, and Jelly Bean, it is still hard to decide somewhat.

You are comparing an older high end car to a newer consumer car. Not as clear cut as some people make it out to be. If I were to ballpark it, the tab 7.7 would be a 2010 Acura TSX and the Nexus 7 would be a 2012 Civic SI. I would probably go with the Civic myself but some might go for the TSX.
[Nexus 7 General] daraldf:
My first experience with a 7-inch tablet was an Acer A-100. I was never really satisfied with it and ended up selling it. I don't know what made me decide to pick up the N7, but I'm very happy with it. For $250, the building quality it outstanding and it's very fast.
[Nexus 7 General] jrpbulk:
Yeah what he said, it is great to hold as well same height, thinner lighter again disregarding price
[Nexus 7 General] Shaquiel Harris:
For someone who was against getting a 7 inch because I thought it was going to be useless since I had a 10 inch.. I would have never thought how much I hate having my transformer this whole time. Thing is amazing. Just too bad my device is defective.
[Nexus 7 General] Jayrod1980:
Don't have any larger tablet to compare but honestly my screen is only on par with the nook tablet. Pretty sad... mine is defective. This thing is supposed to have good saturation, viewing angles and black levels. Mine has good viewing angles but there's a little light bleed and other than pitch blacks, the gray scale is awful. To top it off mine stutters and has an unresponsive screen. Hope my RMA tag comes in soon. Ascetically its the best hands down.
[Nexus 7 General] rcatron:
I actually have both, and though I love the Nexus, the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 has a special place - I love it. It proved to me that specs didn't matter that much when it comes to every day use (had many tablets, including the biggest disappointment of all time - the Transformer Prime).

It was embarrassing that my Tab 2 was more enjoyable to use than the Prime, but it was, that is simply a fact. Browsing is what I do most on a tablet, and the Prime was laggy as hell. Though I love Chrome as a browser (the only one I use on PC), Chrome on the Nexus is simply not good. Still behind the stock browser (IMHO), so overall, I find browsing more enjoyable on my Tab 2 7.0.

I can't wait for the Tab 2 to get JB (if it does).

If you had to pick one though,go with the Nexus 7. For the Price, unbeatable.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilgerryan:
Ok so I am becoming more of a minimalist lately but the only thing that bothers me about AOSP is not having the HTC Music App because a lot of my is in aac format to save space, and the problem is that none of the other music players seem to pay nice with my music library. Is there another music app out there that plays aac and is free? Is it possible to get the HTC Music app working on AOSP (probably not)? Any feedback would be appreciated.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadislavBohm:
Can someone tell me or post some link about experience with Nexus 7 and some office apps? I'm considering this device, but I desperatly need fluent and easy to use office applications. I would love to see how Nexus 7 and new Windows Office Web Apps works, mostly because they are compatible with desktop Office documents.

I'm slightly worried because it is only 7" screen, thats why I'm asking. If not, what device should I be looking for? Should I wait for some tablets with Windows 8? Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzboyrules:
Google Drive is free and you can easily edit the documents on the 7" screen. I also have paid QuickOffice Pro and OfficeSuite Pro and I prefer QuickOffice out of those 2.

Bottom line: 7" screen doesn't cause any limitation in document editing. It actually helps because it can be easily held and typed on.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emptybee:
Kingsoft Office is free and compatible with Microsoft Office documents. Haven't used it in anger yet so can't comment on the suitability of a 7" device for extended periods but have entered text into the fields on an appraisal sheet for work and it did the job.

If you want to make minor changes to a document then a tablet is great but don't expect to write a novel on any tablet. For the same reason you wouldn't write a novel on a netbook, a full size keyboard is best.

edit: Also, go play with a 7" device in a store to get a feel of what you personally think is comfortable. I agree with jazzboyrules that the tablet is easy to handle because, to me, it is small and light therefore can hold with one hand and type with the other (or use thumbs) but you might want something larger because although it has a bigger screen and is heavier you'll think you'll rest it on a tabletop when using it mostly.

MS Web apps

Thanks for replies! I would still like to see Nexus 7 (or even Kindle Fire, which is almost same in terms of screen size and resolution) running Microsoft Wep Apps, especially the new ones, released like 2 days ago.

[HTC One X] biggdaniell:
Hi guys,

Using information (and inspiration) found here on XDA I decided to build my own Pogo Pin Car Dock for HOX.

Details about how the pins work you can find here so I won't get into details but I'll give you some details about the tools and components I used (actually a friend of mine did the assembly).

If you buy everything of the shelf you can make it with very little $$ (obviously not using the parts I used) but I already had everything I needed (except the pins) laying around so I used an car dock fom my old HTC Desire (I tried to sell it in pristine condition but nobody bought it for ~25% the price I paid) and flip case dedicated for HOX that I don't use (I hate to use this kind of case but I did not know that when I bought it). I bought the pins from here and I had a 10kOhm resistor from somewhere else (you can find them virtually everywhere).

Here are some pictures:

In order to easily put the phone in and get it out I had to cut some corners (literally). Now, I can actually easily slide the phone in with one hand. It's not very pretty with all the cutting (I had to cut the front leather lid and magnetic clip too) but IT WORKS!!

One small problem (ok, not that small) is the fact that using any navigation software (so screen always on, brightness to max, GPS ON) still drops the battery level, not very fast but it's still dropping (I had BT and DATA on also, but I don't think this will help much). This happens because apparently there is no way you could trigger full charging using the POGO pins so it's limited to 500mah (USB charging).

I'm happy to answer your questions if something it's not clear.

P.S. all photos are made with my HOX so there's no picture with the phone in the holder (I can make a high quality one if anyone is curios)

P.P.S. excuse any grammar mistakes, I'm not a native English speaker (and I wrote this in a rush)
[HTC One X] viper619:

[HTC One X] patchrules2000:
Looks great. I was going to do something similar myself but once I realised that pogo pins can only be used for USB charge rate (500ma) I ended up just going for a USB type dock from eBay for just $20. No glory from having it homemade but allot quicker and easier as well as full rate charge (750ma) .
[HTC One X] angusc:
Nice job mate! It would be very nice if HTC or other accessory manufacturer could make an extended battery and external card reader using the pogo pins. Also any other pogo pin accessories. ......

[HTC One X] caedanne:
At least you dont get scratches like i have with original car dock... :(
[HTC One X] biggdaniell:
Speaking of scratches, in order to prevent the pins from scratching the phone I always mount the phone in the upper side first (the right side if the dock is in portrait mode) and then I force the bottom part (left side) into place. This is the recommend method for all hard cases given the fact that the phone has volume rockers on the right side.
[HTC One X] Jamesch:
Hi

Good job first of all

I want to make something similar, but a a desktop version and I want to make it from the original phone box.

I acquired some bigger pins, but having a hard time alining them the proper way.

Did you also buy receptacles or anything like that for the one you linked?

Did you make the small board for them yourself?
[HTC One X] biggdaniell:
Nope, I just bought the pins and I used a piece of circuit board to mount them.

Nope, I friend helped me with manufacturing. I like making stuff (and I'm handy) but I did not had the right tools.

From what I remember there are exactly 4mm between the pins (from center to center of pins). So you need to draw a straight line on a circuit board a make 5 points at 4mm distance (you only need to drill 3 holes: 1,4,5). The hole size should match the diameter of your pins.

Given the fact that HOX has a faulty behavior in dock mode (check this thread) I advise you to use only the charging pins (1&5).
[HTC One X] co@ch:
Great work!!! :thumbup:

Mine is a bit more simple. I just bought the standard passive holder of Brodit and a left angle micro USB cable type A (to standard USB 2.0-A for vehicle input USB charger). Type A normally doesn't fit, because the plug is slightly different, but unlike type B (that has just pin 5 grounded) a type A cable also has pin 4 grounded. If you connect a USB cable with pin 4 grounded an HTC device switches to car mode (this is how the original D110 works). The only thing to do is make the type A plug fit in our standard plug B port. Few minutes with a nail file will do the trick! :D

Alternatively you could also use a micro USB type B cable (like the one that comes with the device) and bridge pin 4 and 5. ;)

Cheers!
