As i am looking online for a 16 gb n7, i found a walmart that is says in stock online. The interesting part is that when i called the store, they said that they are not carrying that product. Should i still try to go pick it up or not. I am really confused right now.
[Nexus 7 General] Rattles:
forget Wal-mart. Staples has them, Radio Shack has them and the Google Store has them now as well.
[Nexus 7 General] ceejay83:
you should give them the item number, most csr's have no clue
[Nexus 7 General] tehSecret:
Agreed, buy it anywhere else but wal-mart....plz
[Nexus 7 General] shinji257:
My local staples didn't have any but the Walmart right next door had 3 16gb in the cage.

Forgot to mention that it was today that I got one.
[Nexus 7 General] randpost:
You have to educate the CSR's of new items at Walmart. They told me today that they don't have nor do they plan on carrying it. Then they opened the stock cabinet and I pointed at it. They didn't have a display up.
[Nexus 7 General] erick0423:
I got mine last night at Walmart and there is one box only in the cage so I went to grab it right away and go home happy.
[Nexus 7 General] mistarose:
I just saw 6 nexus 7's at the Walmart near Portland, Oregon. They had zero on display but they were sitting in a glass case near other tablets.
[Nexus 7 General] nameless-:
i got mine yesterday from WM.
[Nexus 7 General] SpYFoXZeRo:
I just bought mine from Walmart, they had 5 more boxes in Noblesville Indiana. I tryed buying them from staples but they ran out, and GameStop for some reason won't sell me theirs, said it was for preorder only. I'm really happy with mine right now, no flaws that I can tell.
[Nexus 7 General] lovenokia:
staples, gamestop, office depot, but only wallmart, looks like i will just get from the play store.
[Nexus 7 General] psmith79:
I just got mine from walmart. I would rather not pay the shipping if I didn't have to, and no other stores had them in stock I called every brick and mortar within 50 miles. Birmingham, Alabama by the way.
[Nexus 7 General] SoonerLater:
Funny thing about Wal-Mart, they will take back anything, no questions asked, within a year.

Funny story about the funny thing above, Okla. State Univ. recruited a bunch of European women to play on their women's soccer team a few years ago. They all went to Wal-Mart and bought everything that they needed to furnish an entire apartment. When the season and semester was over, the returned everything down to the last spatula, for cash, and flew home.

I hate Wal-Mart with a white-hot passion, but when you need something at 3am, being able to go buy it at the near by Super Center is... grudgingly... pretty cool.
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
Wal-Mart is about the easiest place ever to return stuff. I wouldn't hesitate at all to buying one from there.
[Nexus 7 General] randpost:
I don't mind Walmart either. Best return policy on the planet. Ghetto as **** though.
[Nexus 7 General] spoiledfree:
Perfect Nexus 7 Finally!!!!

I just bought mine from walmart When I went in they didn't have any out for sale but the website said they had them in stock so I asked the sales guy and he said they had them in the back. After buying one from google play and having severe light bleed it was nice to finally see what a perfect nexus 7 looks like. It looks great no light bleed, no dead pixels, no bad wifi and touch is responsive and colors don't look washed out, feels solid. I also got their 2 year protection for $20.00 it covers anything. So anyone with doubts about walmart might wanna give them a try.

LOL I second the Ghetto as **** though.
[Nexus 7 General] JD914:
I agree, no questions ever asked and no hassle returns make Walmart a no brainer.
[Nexus 7 General] SoonerLater:
NEEDED: Intel courtesy of someone who works for Wal-Mart.

The inventory information on the Wal-Mart.com that is accessible to the public runs two weeks behind. If you check today for Wal-Mart No.550756186 (the 16gb Nexus 7) it gives you store inventory as of 7/15/2012 (two weeks ago). Searching it for the dozen stores in/near 74105 (Tulsa, OK) shows that all 12 normally carry it, but are out of stock as of 7/15/2012. Well, no****, Sherlock. No Wal-Mart in America had any on 7/15, so this really just tells me that the stores should have it or get some soon. Based on reports in this thread that people are finding them in stock at their local Wal-Mart stores, I went to one here and called five others. None reported having any, but I'm not sure that they made much of an effort to search.

Surely someone who actually worked for Wal-Mart could access inventory info that's much closer to real time (like 24hrs or less). It sure would be nice if someone would tell us what to expect and which Wal-Mart's should have them.

For me, the cost of shipping is typically about the same as sales tax ($16 on the $200 model; $20 on the $250). All things considered, I'd prefer to buy from a local Wal-Mart, have the benefit of no questions asked one year returns and be able to buy a $20 covers nearly everything two year extended warranty. For me, this is preferable to $25 in Google Play credit.

Someone here woks for Wal-Mart, probably. C'mon, help a brother out.
[Nexus 7 General] warriorforgod:
Checked Walmart.com yesterday and found a few Walmart in Omaha, NE that had some. I promptly went and picked one up because everywhere else is out of stock.
[Nexus 7 General] shaunole:
I just ordered mine on the Walmart.com site and it was ready within a few hours. When I went in to pick it up, they said they still had about 12 more in the back. So it seems there may be some truth behind the Walmart Availability. Although, it wasn't displayed in the electronics department yet. Good Luck!
[Nexus 7 General] :
Yup. I called them and someone in electronics said they didn't have it. I persisted and asked them to look up the item number I found on their web page. They had two in stock and I had one of them in my hands just a few minutes later. I live right next to a super center.

[Nexus 7 General] yanksrock1000:
A few Walmarts around me have it! This will be my 3rd try, my first 2 at Staples were defective....hopefully the next will be good :D

Will report back tomorrow or Friday
[Nexus 7 General] Sawdizzle:
I walked in yesterday night, bought one and walked out with no issues.

Online it said the one closest to me had some, when I got there they had 10+.

$270 later and Im walking out the door with one.

FTW, TX
[Nexus 7 General] yanksrock1000:
Awesome! No defects?
[Nexus 7 General] Sawdizzle:
Not that I saw, I got it for my lady for her birthday. I did open it and set it up for her, and so I could honestly mess with it. Nothing wrong with it that I could tell. Her birthday is the 9th, so I'll know more after that haha.
[Nexus 7 General] eddie3130:
I just bought one at my walmart too since i work there they had 3 left an i also payed the extra $30 for 2years Acsidental damage insurance but with my employee discount it brought it back down to 271.. Its a no brainer for me since you can break it anytime in 2 years an theyl replace it no questions asked
[Nexus 7 General] nozzla:
OK. So I've rooted all my past android phones. Partly to get away from sense and partly for the cool customisations you can do. But I was just wondering what the best parts of rooting the gn7 are? Cheers
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
CM10 plus custom kernels.

Root apps allowing for backup and adblocking.

Overclocking.

Just a small list of the vast benefits of rooting.
[Nexus 7 General] AraDreamer:
USB storage capabilities, Getting rid of $*@%ing ads, and as said customization.

That said, use the search button and ask this in one of the three other threads on this that have been posted in the last few days.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nds623:
I have searched through many microphone issue threads and none seem to help. I have a T-mobile htc g2 which has been unlocked and using my AT&T SIM Card. The phone works perfectly, except no one can hear me during phone calls. The voice search app works perfectly -text,navigation, etc. (so it should not be a hardware problem) which leads to a software problem. I have factory reset the phone several times, but it doesn't fix the problem. I have tried to flash ROM the phone, but I cannot get the phone to ROOT. I have tried Visonary (which failed since I have Android 2.3.4) and the xda wiki page, but my phone is not recognized by HTC Sync or adb.

Either way, I need help figuring out if I can ever fix the microphone issue this phone has. If there is another way to install a ROM, please let me know. I have been trying for days to get my phone rooted.

For more information:

I have tried both versions 3.2.20 and 3.0.5551 of HTC Sync (and neither worked). I've restarted my computer and the phone, turned off antivirus, followed HTC instructions; but nothing worked.

When trying adb, in the command prompt after typing "adb devices" I received this message: " 'adb' is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program or batch file " To my knowledge I followed all the previous steps correctly, although I have windows 7 and not vista (but I still got to the same properties).

Anyway, please help me with any information.

UPDATE:

I finally rooted and downgraded the phone to 2.2 Android and then flashed a sense 2.0 ROM (although it was force closing applications), but it did not fix the microphone issue. People still cannot hear me during phone calls. So it seems that this must be a hardware problem, but if the mic works for some applications, is it the microphone that is broken? Or could it be something else?

Right now my phone is still in 2.2 Android since I may be flashing the Sense 3.0 ROM soon. But does anyone know what the problem could be and how to fix it?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
if adb is not recognized then you are not pointed to it. you need to either

change directories in cmd and point it to the folder adb is in

or

change the path in system variables so when you type "adb" into cmd it will always find the path no matter where you are directing it

or if these steps are above your head,

open the folder adb.exe is located, hold shift and right click in the folder - then choose open command here

once in cmd, type

adb devices

if your phone is plugged in, debugging turned on, proper drivers installed you will see a serial number, that's good - continue

if you see waiting for device, then adb.exe is now working but your phone isn't being detected

if you get the same error as before you need to one of the other ways I mentioned
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nds623:
That worked perfectly and I guess my phone is seen by adb. However, I realized the link of the xda wiki for the clockwork recovery is not working. I am trying to find another download link, but does anyone know where else you can download the clockwork recovery for htc g2?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
go to the cyanogen wiki (just google it)

but I would recommend 4ext recovery, (you can google this too) it far nicer than clockwork for the vision

on a side note, find strawmetal's guide to rooting, its in pdf format and also has all the downloads needed
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nds623:
Thank you. I will try to strawmetal's guide first since the xda isn't working for me right now.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nds623:
That Strawmetal's guide worked wonderfully! I finally rooted and downgraded the phone to 2.2 Android and then flashed a sense 2.0 ROM (although it was force closing applications), but it did not fix the microphone issue. People still cannot hear me during phone calls. So it seems that this must be a hardware problem, but if the mic works for some applications, is it the microphone that is broken? Or could it be something else?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
the mic is part of the main flex cable, it is possible it cuts in and out because the flex is going bad and the mic is fine.

either way sounds like the only fix will be to replace your flex about 35~40 on ebay and 30~60min depending on how novice/pro you are
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nds623:
Thank you for your advice. I flashed the Virtuous Unity ROM and it fixed the microphone, somehow. However, if it shuts off (I pray it wont) I will try to see if replacing that will make a difference.

Mic Not Working in Calls Only

What i have strangly noticed after s-off. I am running the jubountu bear hboot with viper rez and sebastions 1.2 1836 kernel. however i have noticed this in a couple roms: s is off:

I have had strange symbols appear in the caller id. for example it will say 9042517485 is calling and then when i go back to recent call list. instead of normally saying "unknown caller" it says *%^**&^ .

I have noticed as well people complaning that there voice is echoing in calls with me? any ideas?

Thanks SOO MUCH

Paul

Edit: I have flashed the stock 3.14.605.10 RUU and it si still doing it? to re generate the problem all i have to do is remove my home phone as a contact (it wont do it with contacts) then give myself a call.

and it looks like

#%$XD^$

9045451515

instead of

unkown caller

9045451515

Seems i dont have the problem when on 3.14.605.05 ROM.. ANy fix for this?
[HTC Rezound] Paulb787:
It is now doing it on the 3.14.605.05 RUU and 3.14.605.10 .... look at the first number? It displays like this after the phone call is ended in recent calls. HORRIBLE
[HTC Rezound] Paulb787:
OK it is not doing this on 3.11.605.22. any ideas? and it does do it on

3.14.605.05 +

3.14.605.10
[HTC Rezound] Proz00:

[HTC Rezound] Paulb787:
YES i did
[HTC Rezound] Paulb787:
In the new 3.14.605.12 it appears above the phone number when i answer a call but does not appear in recent calls.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ProfJonathan:
If you're looking for a car mount specific to your SIII, I can recommend the ProclipUSA.com model 511398, which is a holder with Tilt Swivel. (Disclosure: I got a free review unit from ProclipUSA, for which I'm planning to write a full review.) True, the Proclip solution can be costly, especially if you don't already have a mount to connect it (I did), but if you do, the mount is secure, good looking, and custom fit for your phone. One more caveat: I'm not sure how well it would fit with any more external protection on your phone than a skin (I'm using the Skinomi, which causes no problems). {ProfJonathan}
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fishfuzz:
I usually recommend the adjustable version for folks with cases. I still think they make the best looking mount out there.

Hi,

Thanks fir sharing !

The comments on the download page look good !

I have started downloading and testing ....
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
I remember a thread about this game, you guys said it wasn't worth downloading, how is it now? Hopefully theres been some updates
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DeadlyDazza:
Looks shlt
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
If you dont think it looks good and or want to play it, why post a non-poductive comment. What "looks shlt" to you may be something other people will enjoy.... just saying.....
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DeadlyDazza:
I think it looks shlt, my opinion.... Just saying.....
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I posted this here for those interested. If you are not thats your prerogative. Maybe when you find something that is Xperia PLAY optimized you like you will post it for everyone to determine if they like it or not. :laugh:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DeadlyDazza:
Sure will, and I'll make sure it doesn't look shlt.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
In case you have not realized... if at any time I find a game that is xperia play optimized I post it here, whether I think it looks worthwhile or not. If you dont like the game you dont have be such a jerk about it. Your negative comments/attacks are not conducive to the spirit of XDA. I will politely ask that you at least try to keep an open mind. You dont like a game.... ok, understandable. Do I play this game that I have shared... nope... but do I share it for those who may find it interesting... you bet. I will not reply to any more of your comments as I do not want my thread to go down as a negative pissing contest. Please respect this thread, those who are interested in this, those who spend time posting their findings. If you cannot abide by this rule, which is not mine but laid down by the XDA Devs I will have you reported. With that in mind, I am returning this thread back to what it was intended for.. Star Raiders.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DeadlyDazza:
Kudos for updating us about an Xperia PLAY enabled game. Please continue to do so.

I've looked at it again and it still looks shlt.

Of course this is entirely my opinion, opinions being of which all forums thrive upon & actively encourage.

It is not intended as a personal attack on you as my 1st post clearly defines.

Please do not continue to actively discourage me from having my own opinion as that is against international human rights legislation and I may have to have you reported.

Just one more check of the play store... Yup, still looks shlt.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] despine:
Hi. I have a galaxy tab 2 7.0. Basically as soon as I got the device I went and rooted, installed cm9, but I noticed the slow file transfer speed.

Now I'm trying a stock de odexed stock rom, but this one only has mtp and ptp mode for files transfer, and I'm not happy with it not having a settings button to access more option within settings (that 3 dot in a line button which cm9 has).

I am extremely annoyed with this tablet, because transfering big files like movies would take forever.

Does the stock stock rom have usb mass storage mode?

which rom or how do I set this up so that I can transfer files to the full speed?

my only alternative right now is to unmount microsd card and plugging it into a card reader to get full speed.

your help is appreciated, thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffm5150:
Nope, UMS is no longer supported starting with ICS. MTP with the USB cable is one option, sneaker-net (using sdcard like you describe above) is another, and if you have root you can scp files to an android SSH server like Drop Bear SSH. Yes, none are ideal transfer speeds :(

[Galaxy S II General] zainbintariq12345:
You all sammy fans are know about our famous super villian Android Os high battery usage bug

I was so tired of that because i love sgs2 madly

So here is my words. JUST DONT TAKE TENSION OF ANDROID OS AND DONT LOOK AGAIN AND AGAIN FOR BETRERY STATUS YOU BUY YOUR PHONE FOR USING IT NOT FOR MAKING IT A ANOTHER TENSION IN YOUR LIFE

I am using now samsung galaxy s2 which i bought used and it is from O2 mobile Uk

So first of all when i install 2.3.5 official in my phone its work good android system goes to near 14% and android OS goes to Like 5-9 percent

But when i try to pull something like 2.3.6 with odin it cause me problem of high battery usage again

So i do some research and what i did is flash 4.04 in ny phone

But thats not a full story i root it and install root exploler

And i unistall all ****ty apps like samsung hub,even gmail email

Yeah i am saying it correctly i didnt freeze them i just delete or uninstall them

And yeah problem solved

One more thing to new problem facers

Dude dont worry about that problem i check many peoples they all are facing that thing

Our Galaxy S2 is still best if you compare them will all other present smartphones

My advice is to just check if you are getting same battery timing in real which you were getting before all that

If your answer is yes then dont bother yourself with seeing battery status again and again and enjoy your phone

I hope this process will be usefull to you

I post all ****ty apps list later so you can delete them
