This thread is for people who ordered from the play store and have recieved their orders but cancelled and did not get charged. Do we have any lucky buggers that have managed to net one free because the way google are handling things i wouldnt be suprised if a few hundred slip through their pathetic delivery tracking system.
[Nexus 7 General] Brad387:
I doubt that will happen.

[Nexus 7 General] jsm7483:
I would not be surprised if those people get an invoice and return shipping label in the mail. And then have to choose return or pay. Let alone if it was cancelled and the purchase does not say cancelled in Play store then technically Google covered the terms of the sale and could charge the credit card on file since they could show delivery of said product. Plus in its term of sale it states the cancellation period.

This thread will just bait people to debate. Seems trollish.
[Nexus 7 General] DroidHam:
I got a iPad 3 for free that way too, they sent me a replacement because my engraved one was delayed and I got refunded :)

[Nexus 7 General] raqball:
Its dishonest and borderline theft!

Were people really raised this way? No wonder the world is the way it is these days...

Compromise your honor for $200?? WOW!
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
Is that for UK only? Also, isn't it somewhat solicited since one had ordered it and attempted to cancel after the specified cancellation period?

This thread is going to cause arguments for sure. Not as bad as the thread about retail FRAUD though...
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
Agreed. I thought the same thing about the retail fraud one with the guy having a play store and Sam's club tab, inspecting them and just returning whichever one he doesn't want to Sam's club. I think it's actually a felony.

Shame.

Lol a free tablet is a free tablet ....like Google doesn't have more money then they will ever need . And not to mention I'm pretty sure Google is constantly stealing/viewing or information that's why u get ads similar to the things you talk about in your emails. Ppl just over look these things because they make great products
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
Correct, you are not a lawyer.

The "unsolicited goods" laws in some countries (USA for example, which is handled by the FTC) is explicitly written to cover receiving unordered products. It is not for "haha! you sent me something after I cancelled my order so I get to keep it for free!" type scenarios.

So, for example, if you signed up for a free product and they sent you something more with a bill/invoice. Or if you never ordered anything to begin with, but they sent you something and wanted you to pay for it. Or if you receive something (again, not ordered) and it was due to an honest shipping mistake*.

To the latter, you are still supposed to contact the merchant to let them know of the mistake, and give them an opportunity to correct it at zero cost to you (ie: paying for return shipping) within a reasonable amount of time. You can also make it clear that if they don't contact you about it within that time, you will dispose of the product in any manner you see fit.

While this part of it might be a stretch, it could possibly apply here. So if you did actually get an N7 by mistake after cancelling your order, and want to keep it with little risk, I would suggest sending a certified letter to Google with the content above. If they respond back saying to send it to them using a prepaid shipping method, you should do so. Otherwise, while it wouldn't be considered "fraud" since it was their mistake, it could be considered theft of goods, since you did in fact order the product, they still sent it to you due to an honest mistake, they later tried to get it corrected, and you refused.

Or, you could just stay quiet and hope they don't contact you about it - if you are so inclined.

But in the end, if they do contact you to return the merchandise, I would recommend doing so.
[Nexus 7 General] kumqwat:
On the invoice I received with my order, it had the device's serial number. They knew the device's serial number too, when I rang up and started the RMA process. Google know where each device has been shipped to, so I doubt very much that they'll do nothing and let people keep free tablets. Also, as stated on the support pages, they can remotely disable devices.

I dont think this kind of discussion really has much merit here....if you get one for free, then so be it....this isn't a place to discuss things like that, tbh...

and in the end of it...whats the point?...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kjacksonmusic:
Alright so it seems I have quite to complicated problem. I installed an alpha build of the JB rom for my TF. After examining JB etc I tried to boot back to recovery but couldn't. I press and hold volume down and it comes to the RCK but I cannot choose anything as my Volume up button is physically broken. I tried to flash with PERI but all I get is this error message ""- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: no such file or directory (2)".

I as well have tried Wolfs exploit method 3, but I cant get the TF in APX mode due to my volume up button not working.

So as I review my options it seems the only way to attempt to fix my TF is to take it apart and try to press the vol up button manually (maybe the vol rocker is broken, although it feels as though its making contact with the internal button). Before I make this jump I would like to know if anyone else an idea. Also of course NVFLASH won't work as I cant boot into APX mode. :(

as far as usability of the tablet, I don't have data avail and cant mount the storage to transfer files.

I have Windows and Linux available to me, both with adb setup.

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoinTheRealms:
I think in the long run your gonna have to get that volume button fixed lol , I did manage to get adb working on that rom but i cant remmber what i did, have you updated the sdk manager for 4.1?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kjacksonmusic:
lol hey man!

yeah my sdk is all up to date on both OS's I can adb push files with np the only issue is when i try to run adb shell I get that exec error message.. Sooo I figure if i can fix the vol button I suppose I can just use nvflash and go from there unless you have a better option for once i can get into APX mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoinTheRealms:
I would recommend this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1558170) with Nvflash sorry cant be more help on the software front lol but I think in the long term you need to be able to get into apx mode
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kjacksonmusic:
I have downloaded a .24 nvflash should I run that I got it from here if you wouldnt mind looking at the list and recommending which one to use MY SN IS B60 like yours. http://xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Asus/Asus+Transformer+(TF101)/STOCK+ROMS/ICS+.24

ahhh thanks man didnt know what those mean. ill download the ww .24 and suppliment the previous linked posts walkthrough, probably do this tomorrow as i need to go get a torx 4 screwdriver to work on the vol button ill let you know how it goes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kjacksonmusic:
figures you are the person that helps me when i make a thread. haha so I removed the bezel and found that my volume button was physically broken the plastic part that makes contact with the rocker nub was missing, i had to wedge a screwdriver in it to press it but I got it to boot into apx then had to figure out how to get the unsigned driver to install on windows 8 then it finally worked.

I thank you very very much! :good::laugh::D:laugh::D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Try my guide?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkbasic4:
I don't really need a recovery (I'm fine with the official rom), anyway since the link is broken I will follow your guide... Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Then all you need to change is:

fastboot boot RECOVERYNAME.img

Instead of "fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img"

Either works, really...and your stock recovery will still be there as soon as you reboot.

There's a system file in place that replaces the recovery on each reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkbasic4:
I decided to install the recovery and remove the recovery restore from the rom, even if I don't need it right now it may be useful in the future...

Thanks
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreyesta:
Its the second time my 2 year old son fell my streak to the solid floor and damaging its lcd (altough the corning glass survive). I kinda disapoint to this dell product, while my wife sammy gal ace gets thrown of, fell of, and suffer much more abuse its only get minimal damage... as far as i know my wife phone also use gorilla glass just like streak does... but i dont know anything about streak inside lcd spect or construction that might be causing this flaw...

It will costing me another lcd replace and if i accumulate with the last time its almost as much as a new streak it self...

For the record my son only 85 cm height so it wasn't fell from heigher than 40-50 cm, and it wast thrown it was delicately fell from my son hand. (And my streak was using a leather case)... the ugliest fact are it fell face down...

So the question is what is the different ours dell streak 5 to other that make it (especially lcd part) amazingly fragile...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
i am pretty sure it would be something like galaxy note too... unless it is constructed differently from the streak...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Doppio:
My streak broke twice, and both times the upper filter of the LCD detached from the rest. This is due to the way the Streak is constructed: LCD glued to the digitizer glued to the Gorilla glass. The whole thing is held together by glue, and the heavy and large Gorilla glass pulls on the LCD whenever the phone is being bent or dropped, and also probably during normal use if you're squeezing or twisting your phone (as happens while playing some games).

The fact that this seems to be the major reason for the Streak to break according to web searches, and that LCD screen prices have gone through the roof, proves my point.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lexmazter:
Well, my streal's screen is broken, i also had 1 replacement on it already, now it's time to get another one and after that will be used as the secondary device ( home/development/testing ), i also had some really nasty damages, first time, it was a suprise, as i fell asleep with the phone in my bed and in the morning the alarm gave me the greatest "good morning", my streak fell off my bed on a metal bar from a chair that happened to be near the bed, it happened while i was asleep, and only the gorilla glass was damaged, nice wallpaper though :).. Now, the second time, it fell from my poket when i got off the car, it fell face-down, noe both the gorilla glass and the lcd are damaged, so...

This is a great device, but with some engineering tweaks some Streak 55 (idiot name :)) could be better, faster, stronger or whatever, anyways, i post this mainly because i love this device and i really don't know why :D

Hello everyone .. I've been trying to the supercharger v6 script and I have a small question..

Once u run the required script in the Script manager app with root access,,, after running the script and while trying to exit, it gives 3 options...

1. Stop 2. Run in background 3. Close...

Which one do I choose.. I probably think it's the 2nd one, but would be great if someone confirms it.. (and anybody else using supercharger v6??? ) Thank you.. Cheers..

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
If you're a gamer is suggest not locking home in memory btw. Otherwise for daily usage its much better with supercharger, and you should kill the script after you set all your minfrees and tweaks. To check you can either run heavy games or open many tabs in a browser and check for re draws.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emptybee:
Is there an option in the calendar app itself? Have a look through the settings and I am sure there is a setting you can change for how far ahead the app looks (i.e. one day, week, month, etc.).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jb_alphamale:
Do you have to enable the script at boot?

Explanation in OP very summary.

Plug the phone where? In the computer or the AC adapter?

If in the computer then why is necessary that to run the script.

If you don't use the GScript Lite then what do you use to run the scripts (Terminal?).

If you copy the script to the phone then the files should have which extension? I mention that because there is nothing attached.

Do not forget that you're dealing here with a lot of noobs.

Please be so kind and review the OP.

If the script works correct then this is a big deal and I congratulate you but do it like a pro.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jb_alphamale:
OK here is what I did.

Installed Script Manager free from the market.

Copied both scripts into sdcard\scripts folder.scripts folder created by myslef.

Opened the mass storages.sh script and run it.

I've got bunch of error messages that it cannot find this and that.

The phone was connected to the computer.

If necessary I can screenshot the errors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Don't use those scripts, I have issues with them as well. Just copy/paste the OP text into your own script using GScript Lite.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jb_alphamale:
OK let's try. I'll report back.

Edit: OK I did what you proposed. Created the script in GSript Lite and saved then ran. Nothing happens. After I run it GScript FCs. I'm giving up.

This is so simple that I don't think that I'm messing up something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
GScript does have force close issues but don't worry, it still runs as long as you don't see any errors when it's done.

I have just extracted the working GScripts I created and added them to OP for anyone who wants to import them into their GScript Lite. Just create a folder called "gscript" on your internal memory "/sdcard" partition and put those two .sh files into that folder. Then just use the app to add each of them as a new script (load file).

So what does this enable you to do? Browse the entire internal memory when connected to USB, opposed to just the microSD?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
This will enable your SD Card to show up as a regular disk drive instead of a device on whatever you plug into with a USB port. This was the old way of managing USB storage before that changed to MTP Mode (device mode) with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The benefit of UMS is that it will work with special devices that try to read your phone like a car radio will now be able to read the songs through the USB port, also your TV (if it has USB support of course). Also it's a much more reliable method of transferring files on your computer since it's basically direct access as opposed working through a special protocol with MTP Mode. Hope that helps explain it a bit without being too technical. :)
