[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlanza1054:
Hi all,

I use Outlook to maintain my contacts and calendar (mainly due to limitations using a standard Google account and app).

On my Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G on Sprint (SPH-D710), my contacts are in an account named 'Phone' and my calendar events are stored in an account named 'My calendar'.

I then sync these 2 account types to Outlook on my PC, using either 'Dejaoffice' or 'My Phone Explorer Client'. I presently use MPE because of the feature set.

I also managed to get these 2 accounts on my Asus TF300T by using Asus' PC Suite which can sync Outlook to the tablet.

I don't think or know if the Nexus 7 will be recognized by the Asus PC Suite. I need to test it out. But I doubt it.

So now the question for all of you.

Is there a way of copying those data files from the phone over to the Nexus 7 and if so where are those files located.

I haven't rooted yet but plan to do so as soon as I can watch the tutorial video that I downloaded.

If I can't copy those data files or accounts, is there a way to create an account that is not associated with an email account.

Seems that is the only option you are given in settings, 'to add an account'?

Thanks for all your help and input.

Rob

PS I should tell you the main reason that stops me from using the normal Google account (which of course I do have) as my primary account.

It seems with the contacts account, there are one or two fields missing.

However, the calendar account on Google, there is no way to make an appointment with a contact that does not have an email address.

I make a ton of doctor appointments and most of my doctors don't have or supply email address.

I also want the formatting of an appointment event to contain the name of the person in the event name field (the first field you enter) and I want the address of contact to be placed in the location field of the calendar event.

And before all of you say I can do that already, I'm not interested in typing it myself.

Using Outlook allows me to do all I want with a simple right click on a contact name.

For those of you young enough to remember the Palm Treo, using PalmOS, it had that feature and was even easier than Outlook's way.

So is there a way to this using Google's calendar or contacts app?

Double thanks, since I actually presented you with 2 main questions.

[HTC EVO 3D] Levito:
As stated. I don't know why or how, but for those of you who do tethered gaming and are fed up with the crazy lag spikes like me... this solves your problem. Skyping yourself does not seem to work however.

If anyone knows what process Skype starts on this phone which is responsible for this behavior, and has a simpler means of duplicating it, I will buy you a beer to have that in my hands.

Hope someone finds this trick useful, and even better, finds a means of exploiting it.
[HTC EVO 3D] danaff37:
Probably has to do with QOS settings.

edit: don't know if that is anything you can change though, just sounds like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] aweskelo:
can you just have it running or do you need to be in a call
[HTC EVO 3D] Levito:
In call. Doesn't work Skyping yourself unfortunately.

If we could identify what it's doing someone could create a script or an app or something to get that benefit going 24/7.
[HTC EVO 3D] Levito:
Bump for a better life.
[HTC EVO 3D] Levito:
Really? Nothing?
[HTC EVO 3D] p3tr0s:
My best guess is because there is an active data session running it eliminates the initial connection tethering has. Try this next time you're tethering.... Run a speedtest before the Skype call and during the Skype call and look at the ping times.

I've been noticing lately that my phone will sometimes show a red exclamation mark or sometimes the red LED will be lit when the phone isn't even plugged in (the charging LED).

Any ideas what causes this? Has anyone else had this as well? Is it ROM based or hardware failure\faults?

Thanks

Short on the board, bad battery, could be any number of things.
[HTC EVO 3D] incarceration:
I have the device in an OtterBox Defender case since I got it and have only dropped it enough times to count on maybe one hand and it's been from like 2-3 ft up. There's no signs of visible dmg and it's never been near any liquid. So how could i narrow down what it could be from the "any number of things"?
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Well the easiest thing to try is get a new battery and see if it's that. If that doesn't help, you can try taking it apart and see if the board has any damage.

I had the same problem, A new battery should do the trick, and make sure its an official HTC battery not one of those cheap fakes

Hello Dev's

I'm Trying to update my evo 3d and get rid of this syngery rom i got on here. now i know its simple normally. but from clockwork mod i cant get into recovery. nor can i get into recovery from bootloader. its brain killing to be honest ive been reading treads for a good hour or so. but it would be easier to start fresh. can anyone help me out?

hboot 1.50

running 2.3.4
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
flash another recovery , twrp or maybe 4ext . Not all recoveries work on hboot 1.5.
[HTC EVO 3D] evo bryan:
get the free 4ext app it will flash a recovery for you and it works good with 1.5 s-on
[HTC EVO 3D] sonza:
'

I have been using TWRP without a bit of problem on hboot 1.5 and s-on. I would agree with bryan and try the ext4 app to flash the recovery first, butif it doesn't work, you could ended up flashing the recovery from your pc to get it loaded.

Just as another idea, while it should not make a difference, you can usually go straight to recovery using adb commands. I use "adb reboot recovery" all the time from my pc to get my evo to reboot into recovery without touching the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] Roosafur:
Not to sound like a fanboy, but 4ext recovery is the bees knees. I rarely buy apps, but after it pulled me out of the fire a few times, I dropped the $2.40 to help support the development.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowestcivic:
Hello all,

I have been using my acer a500 with its bluetooth keyboard for work forever - I work in a car and built a nice dock for it etc. I have recently moved to the N7 and I have the same keyboard. It has all the quicklaunch keys at the top (search, volume, browser, email, camera, files, music...... etc)

I would love to be able to use these for what they are labeled (or better yet assign things to what I want them). Is there an app out there or something I can edit? I have searched high and low and cannot find anything.... I need to go take those Google powersearching classes.....

TL:DR Looking for an app or where to edit to use bluetooth keyboard quicklaunch buttons.

Thank you so much for any help!

Anyone? I have not been able to find anything about it... sad :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z3r0t0l0rEnCe:
Ok firstly S-On is showing. I already rooted ( S-Off) my phone once then later had to turn S-On. I ran Revolutionary again to root my phone and it told me that S-Off is done and what do I thing I was doing! Ok so I figured ignore the S-On and move to rom.

The other thing I want you to know is that Rom Manager is what was flashed there before. I wanted to install the Amon_Ra recovery and get rid of Rom Manger as I see in all the roms that is what is suggested. What or how can I fix this?

So I went to [UPDATED 07/02/12] [ROM] TEAM D.I.R.T | RemICS-UX Port | ICS 4.0.4 as that was the rom I wanted. Started to follow the instructions.

First I recommend that you use smelkus recovery found here http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1661543 <<< This is where i run into a problem.

- Make a backup of everything you value like music, pictures, etc

- WIPE EVERYTHING! (system, data, boot, sd-ext, cache)

- Partition your sdcard (follow steps below)

I recommend that you partition your sdcard to 1024 (1GB), swap size 0

Then move ext2 to ext3 then ext3 to ext4

- Download the ROM in the same place as the changelog

- Flash it

In those instructions it asks you to:

Install

Using fastboot (using .img)

fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recoveryname>.img

Using bootloader (using .zip)

Rename file to 'PC36IMG.zip' and place on root of sd card, reboot to bootloader, allow bootloader to scan, volume up to accept update

Both steps above in bold are refusing to work. It won't read the .img or .zip.

Here is everything what I have showing. Hope the info I provided helps. I'm clueless to what I'm doing wrong or where to start.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jasondhsd:
I noticed yesterday when I was restarting my phone and the screen goes to black there are a few areas that are completely black, like an ink spot it on the right side of my screen it looks like someone took black nail polish and put a strip up the side of it and there a few other "splotches" on the screen. I downloaded screen test from the play store and sure enough when I bring up the black screen I can see the spots but the room has to be dark. It's not noticeable in a lighted room or on any of the other test patterns/colors. Is this something I need to be concerned with, I don't want to ignore it and have it get worse and start showing under normal lighting conditions.

i just upgraded to ff18///

i then upgraded to cwm

i then upgraded to calkulins 4gt 2 fe22

i also just upgraded the modem for fe22 it said this was the newest

quest is i assume the calkulins rom is called fe22

i assume i look for only that stuff fe22

how do i know when to upgrade the rom ///kernals //modem

do i only look for calkulins 4gt 2 fe22

http://www.buildarom.com/E4GT/Modems/E4GT_Modem_FE22.zip ////is that stuff right to use

by the way u guys are great and thank u

is it better to stick with the calkukins stuff because i heard its safe and good
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
The latest modem is FF18, use whatever works best for you. Anything in that thread is outdated and Calkulin moved onto a different phone.

Know that the FE22 repacked recovery is unsafe to factory reset on in fact staying out of the recovery on it entirely is a good idea. I know there were some earlier than FF18 repacks that were made generally safe but the only kernel source we have had is FF18 and the only completely safe kernels will be based on that source.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] larrynypd:
thanks didint know that //// this stuff is so confusing lol so how do i go back to ff18

can i use this to go back to ff18 for cwm e4gtauto-lite-sfxhanks

how do i go backk please also i was told that the agat cwm was safe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
In case your not entirely familiar. Our phones eMMC has a bug in its firmware that is triggered by the Android 4.0 Kernel during certain erase operations. Factory reset is a surefire way to permenantly brick the phone. FF18 was supposed to have been made safe by Samsung but from what we can tell on the surface it is not.

AGAT and others by now as well as whoever is doing the TWRP recovery kernels have made kernels with recoveries that are safe to wipe and factory reset as well as generally safe flashing roms. Look for ones built from FF18 source which will have been made safe inside and out. AOSP roms like CM9 and AOKP have safe recoveries and a source built kernel is in testing for as well.

Just be careful with factory resetting, formatting, flashing roms on stock recovery or anything prior to FF18 that is not marked as being safe to do whatever.

You should be able to use sfhub's auto root to install Agat's FF18 on Calkulin's rom, you could technically stay there but thats a pretty old custom rom at this point. There are others out there I have not kept up. Agat has one there are some more popular ones these days like Blu Kuban and stuff I havent kept up to be honest.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Just flash agats last kernel....its built from source and is safe to flash things from. Also an unsafe recovery just means don't wipe data in it....you can still flash a modem or app.zip in it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] larrynypd:
do u reccommend not to root then

this is what i used to get for cwm can i use it to go back to ff18 e4gtauto-lite-sfx

or what about this This One-Click ODIN contains the STOCK FF18 Modem/Kernel/ROM for the E4GT
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Root is irrelevant. If your worried about the bug root has nothing to do with it. The Galaxy Note which has the bug was given ICS over the air and had a rash of bricks from people on stock unrooted firmware just doing simple factory resets. We also have the bug and while reports internally say they put in a work around, its not showing in the source we have.

You are in fact safer being with us, is that not sad? Our developers have worked around the problem from every known point of cause. From where you are at install AGATs FF18 using the auto root. You can flash a different rom if you wish after that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] larrynypd:
thanks do you know off hand how to deroot ff18 if i have to can i just reput stock ff18 rom back on phone would that deroot it or mess it up

also who and what do i use to update //upgrade the rom/kernals /modems on here do i look for anything that said for ff18 and i would be ok thansk larry
