[Asus Transformer TF700] reymunoz:
I was playing around with the settings and haven't found a way to change the lock screen in any way... Meaning picture or adding apps... Etc... The only thing I've been able to find is one for adding a security pin etc. So my question is... Is it possible to change the lock screen at all?
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
Nope, not at the moment. Maybe a custom ROM will provide that option sooner than later, now we have got an unlocked bootloader tool available that shouldn't take too long.

In yet another Apple lawsuit in the US, and yes it's against Samsung, Apple have listed several of their patents and what they want in compensation.

Aside from $2.25 billion for lost profits they say Samsung caused by misleading people with their copied look they also list the royalties they are demanding for use of their patents. Thought it might be interesting to see just how much (financially) a successful result for Apple will cost the end user.

Bear in mind that to use Samsungs patents Apple have offered just half a cent per unit even though Samsung own a number of standard essential patents. Apple want the following per unit from Samsung for each device sold....

$2.02 for allowing Samsung to use "overbounce" patent (the bit where your phone pings back when reaching the end of a gallery for example)

$3.10 for the scrolling api patent

$2.02 for allowing Samsung users to tap their screen in order to zoom in or out, or navigate

$24 for allowing Samsung to have devices that look similar

That's over thirty dollars per device. If they win (and as it is Judge Koh presiding it's very likely they will) then the end price of Samsungs android products will have to go up to incorporate this and it means that end users will end up paying more and getting hit in the pocket for what are surely implausibly high royalties.

How can Apple pay just half of one cent yet expect over thirty dollars in return?

Apple ceo Tim Cook said "we just want other people to invent their own stuff" recently but it looks like what they actually want is to make up their less than expected profit shortfall by picking on their best selling rivals until they can bring out the all singing all dancing iphone 5, at which point presumably they will then also sue Samsung for having a large screen phone :rolleyes:

This is an outrage against Americans; please see the thread I made about starting a petition against many of the injustices Apple is doing. We cant let this go on so easily. Sad to see no one is chiming in. Its an open topic
[General Topics] mistermentality:
The problem is that it would also impact all non american users to as it is a per unit cost applied to all units not (I think) just ones sold in america.

Not seen your thread, but as am not american can't sign american petitions although I would have thought you would have to petition your congressmen, or is that who you mean? I was assuming you meant petition apple.

Ohhhhh yeah. What do you expect. The Law is the Law! In the US that is common tool for making money. If they allow it, then it will hit the Courts.

Beside that Samsung has some money for rainy days ( from using the cheap plastic ) :D

I am a proud apple hater but that doesn't change the facts. If Samsung overcharge us ( and i don't believe that ) we have another options like HTC, Moto, LG etc.

What is wrong the patent system? How can someone get a patent to ELECTRONIC LISTS?! Makes no sense at all what is going on with these patents. "songs in music libraries"? Where ELSE would you have songs, in electronic lists? Which is again patented. Someone has to be getting paid on the inside, right?
[General Topics] thebobp:
The real cost to users is probably incalculable; increasing uncertainty causes less incentives for R&D, funds for which are diverted to dealing with the lawsuits in the first place.

In the long-term, this is a good thing: the more obvious the bull**** and harm to consumers, the more likely some drastic change would occur. Knowing humans, however, it could take several decades.

Because Apple will go after them as well once samsung is taken care of, Hell they already have been. If Samsung falls do you think Apple is going to let anyone else fill that gap?

Also if Samsung falls it means Apple has a precedent as being able to successfully sue over generic shallow patents. Everyones prices will rise, not just Samsungs.

I dont thinks Apple should get royalties for basic designs and tech they did not invent
[General Topics] mistermentality:
This.

Plus, because the apple patents they now have are vital to any mobile os (displaying documents on screen, using icons and widgets, touching a screen to input data, etcetera) but not under frand terms apple can refuse to allow their use and force phones using these features off the market.

And we're talking about a company who sued a grocer for having an apple as part of their logo so don't think that apple won't sue android out of existence if they can. They will.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] will123w:
Hey guys, I'm having a small issue with my tab that's beginning to drive me crazy.

I'm not sure if it was present right out of the box as I wasn't completely stock for more than 30 minutes. After I flashed metallice's kernel for stock I noticed some issues a few hours later that every now and then pinch to zoom on the tab became extremely tedious. Like I'd move my fingers half way across the tab and it would barely zoom in.

Scrolling around the page was still smooth, but pinch to zoom was very "hitchy"

I flashed CM9 afterwards and stuck with the stock cm kernel thinking something Metallice did in the kernel wasn't reacting well with my tab, but nope still happened.

After 4.0.4 came out for the tab I flashed back to stock using odin and updated via ota. Everything seemed fine for a few hours and then the issue came back.

It's still occurring on Jelly Bean but it's not quite as pronounced. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and if anyone has a possible fix.

Thanks,

Will

This is driving me nuts. This last week my phone started rebooting at the most random times. Sometimes in the middle of stuff and other times just sitting on the counter or on the charger. I was running a Classic Sense Rom, but wiped all and reinstalled several - all having the same problem. I am currently using the Derp 3d Rom v1.2 RC2, Kernal 2.6.35.10-g4e39384 (nitrous download) baseband ver 2.15.00.11.19

Does this tell anyone anything? It was rebooting without any additional apks reinstalled.

Thanks for any help or ideas..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I would suggest trying another kernel. The kernel may be undervolted and not playing nice, or the kernel just doesn't like your phone; it happens.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Just curious, which recovery are you using?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawyeradam:
Using clockwork recovery..

I'll try another Kernal. The kernal I just flashed was to try another one as the phone had been working perfectly fine and then just started acting up without any new Rom / Kernal etc... It does it with / without the SD card - seen people attributing this to SD.

Any suggestion on a kernal??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossrocker:
Stop using clockwork now

Follow the link below and after following the instructions you will a great aosp rom with a better recovery. If reboots continue its very easy to fix the undervolting.

If you prefer sense, you can still gram amonra recovery from the link below. Continue to reflash your from and kernel. If rebooting occurs download an undervolting app or get vipermod and you can raise the voltages until rebooting stops.

Sure. The evo is old now. I really don't know what to update with because I have tried ALOT of stuff. And this is the best I've gotten.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossrocker:
Go into advanced settings and try lowering the Max speed. Keep mind at 245.

If not then there's voltage problems. Download incredicontrol and see if raising tthe voltages helps.

If not, take the battery out and keep it out for 24 hours.

Might work.

Edit. Can you explain your problem in further detail. Your phone boots up and then just starts rebooting? Reboots every few minutes? Or does it not even boot in to the rom?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nickitt:
I had the same exact problem that you are describing to everyone here. All I did was Nandroid'd my phone, cleared everything and re-installed the Rom, let it boot up, go into recovery and clear the caches, then I installed the Kernal of my choice and it took care of my random rebooting. Just like everyone, we all have different problems even though it sounds like they are the same most of the time they aren't.

Just in the explorer window, down near the clock. The small symbol (can't remember exactly what it is - I've been using Ubuntu for 3 years. :) ) with a small green bubble at the top right of the symbol. Right click that and choose eject whatever the phones name is.

I normally just unplug it without doing any of that though.

MTP does not need to be ejected since it cannot cause corruption, only transfer or not transfer the files that are pending.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olywa123:
s4fseeker is spot on, you don't need to 'safely remove' with MTP, if you'd rather though you can connect the S3 in 'mass storage' mode

(Settings-->Developer options-->USB Debuging), tick this and Windows should now show the safely remove option.

I suspect this is why other posters do have the option in windows :)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] linuxgator:
There's a dev, known as Hashcode0f who along with a few others is working on a kernel which can bypass the bootloader. Once he gets it working (primarily on the Droid 3), he's going to put it on the Bionic and other newer Droid phones, JB will soon follow. It'll probably be a few weeks at the earliest before we see anything for the Bionic though.
