[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROCKSTAR XS:
I just got mine Thursday and it had no defects. The only ones posting about it are the ones who had defects so out of sooo many people only a few had those defects. Not everyone is bound to get them :p. If I were you I would call Google play customer support (best cs I've ever talked too and I called 4 times) and talk to them about shipments and/or how soon yours will ship. You can mention the defects if you want but like I said only so many people go those defects.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hashibahoohaa:
Give it 6 months, cancel your order. The defects that have been reported are from 2-3 weeks of usage, not all have them, but they are there. See how it performs over an extended period. Don't give up on the device though, its mega, just let it go through the first 3-6 months grill.

If you cannot wait, then forget about all the issues. You may not experience them as some users have got a good tablet. And GOOG will fix it for you eventually (just be prepared for the returns and lost productivity during the outage)
[Sony Tablet S] ross231:
a guy on youtube did this. here.

can someone give me a tutorial please?
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
Go HERE to find instructions for installing Windows XP on an Android tablet. Installing Windows 95 (as shown in the YouTube video you pointed to) on an Android tablet will require the same steps. I used the instructions to install TinyXP (a small-footprint version of Windows XP) on my Sony Tablet S and it successfully ran; however, it ran extremely slow, which was expected seeing how all Android tablets have limited CPU and memory resources and the Android OS was not created for running other OSes in an emulator or virtual machine. Good luck.
[Sony Tablet S] ross231:
would ubuntu run very well?
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
I do not believe you would have success running Ubuntu on Bochs for Android. I believe you would have better luck with Puppy Linux. However, take into consideration I am speaking from having no experience running either of those distros on Bochs for Android. AntiBillOS compiled a version of Linux specifically for Bochs for Android. You can find AntiBillOS's posting about it HERE.
[Sony Tablet S] ross231:
Thanks for your help.
[Sony Tablet S] agc93:
If you want to run Ubuntu, you're better off using Complete Linux Installer from the Play Store to run Ubuntu as a chroot environment. It's similar to emulation, but possibly a little faster than Bochs or QEMU. It's also vastly easier to install since there are already custom-built images included in the app.

The optimus black related post is still up...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] PaKii94:
if/when ics does come, how long do u think the g2x will stay relevant in the market? Cause it does got blazing specs.Yeah there is gs3 out and all the htc Ones but they just dont seem "quality" products to me. only other thing im considering is the galaxy nexus. I think if ics came out the g2x should be able to last another year or two until google brings out something completely new like key lime pie or kettle corn. If ics does come out then ima wait till the next gen nexus with next gen android is out
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chuckhriczko:
Possibly good news from our good friend Paul O'Brien. He says it's definite and even "imminent" for the 2X.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Product F(RED):
Basically Apple is using pictures of Steve Jobs in evidence photos (him holding the iPad when it was unveiled in 2010, etc.), presumably to win sympathy from the jury since he's dead and all that jazz. Samsung said, "those pictures have nothing to do with the evidence!" Judge Hoe...I mean Koh said, "Yes they do, feel free to use them Apple." So Samsung said, "Fine you can use them, but if you're going to let them use those pictures of Jobs, you have to let us quote what Jobs said about going thermonuclear on Android [from his autobiography]." The Judge said no. So basically, she keeps siding with Apple on everything, and it's effing ridiculous. She's either a fangirl herself, or she's getting paid off by Apple behind the scenes.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] liftsifter:
So wait, because Steve Jobs said that he would spend his dying breath to destroy Android because it infringes his patents, that means that it's evidence against Apple? If anything it shows that Apple truly believes that they did infringe on their patents...

And their using photos of Steve Jobs to display the product, not just random photos of Steve for sympathy.

What Apple is doing is ridiculous. Its the same as saying no one else can manufacturer a 52" 16:9 device with a screen that displays moving pictures a (TV) I hope some judge rules that they not only lose these ridiculous cases but have to pay damages, court costs and the legal fees of everyone they attempted to sue.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] iiandskater:
I just found the trick to manipulate carrier label on notification bar when I'm exploring decompiled stock based SystemUI.apk..

Wanna know how to do that ??

Check this out : :)

Here I'm using lidroid's modified SystemUI, should work on other stock based SystemUI

First you need to decompile your SystemUI.apk

Open res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml with any good xml editor (here I'm using NP++)

Find this line:

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CarrierLabel android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:textColor="#ff33b5e5" android:gravity="center" android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:paddingBottom="20.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

and change to:

<textView android:text="@string/carrier_label" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:textColor="#ff33b5e5" android:gravity="center" android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:paddingBottom="20.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

Save

Now open res/values/strings.xml

Add this line above </resources> :

<string name="carrier_label">ENTER_YOUR_COOLEST_TEXT_HERE</string>

so it'll be looked a like this:

<string name="carrier_label">ENTER_YOUR_COOLEST_TEXT_HERE</string>
</resources>

p.s. : change the ENTER_YOUR_COOLEST_TEXT_HERE with your desired label

Now save

Recompile (build) your SystemUI.apk

Push to your phone and you are.......

Done !! :cool:

The result will be looked like this :

Mine : :p

Good luck.. ;)

I seen AOKP is available for us AT&T Galaxy S3 users. I came close to downloading it but want to wait until it has more time to work out the bugs. My question is to those who do have or used it- Do you like AOKP as a daily driver for our GS3? Or do you think the few bugs are not that bad?

AOKP was and is my favorite ROM on the Galaxy Nexus. So I want it bad but stability and working features are important. And when I had AOKP on my GN is worked amazing.

I am on the 7-16-2012 it is a ICS ROM and I have bin using it since it can out it is a great every day ROM. I am having no problems and the battery life is great.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bravomail:
Waiting is the best

My suggestion is to go to particular ROM thread and read. And frustration will follow. I don't think any of custom ROMs yet ready to replace stock ROM. The only incentive at this point is to have JellyBean before Samsung releases their JB update - for bragging rights mostly. However not all pieces of JB source are released by Google and it will take time to develop something once source released.

:cool:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] davidstech11:
I see alot of people mentioning that about the Jelly Bean Roms. I am seeing a lot mention the Ice Cream Sandwich roms being really good though.

Thanks everyone for the heads up. I even seen someone who is enjoying the Jelly Bean Rom. Being that I really want stability and all my features working I am going to try some of the Ice Cream Sandwich Roms. Let those hold me over until the Jelly Bean Roms get polished.

On a side note. I already enjoy my LTE GS3 using it stock with Nova launcher. I do have it rooted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbelZ:
So I'm currently on RR 2.6.1 with siyah 3.4.1 and pretty much everything works perfectly. There is this one problem I have though. If I'm listening to music and get a notification, the notification plays just fine, but after it has finished playing, the music is very quiet. It will also stay this way until I change the volume via the hard buttons, and actually jumps instantly back to what it was before the notification.

I was also unable to find a solution by search, supposedly I just couldn't come up with the correct search terms. So, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

+1 i have the exact same rom and kernel and i hate when that happens, also i would love if someone told me how to lower the timeout for the volume notification, like, when you change volume and you are seeing a vid on youtube, the volume pop-up takes a while to dissapear and i dont like that

My Nexus 7 doesn't seem to connect in wireless n. Here's the situation. When my router (Linksys WRT300N) is in mixed mode 2.4GHZ , the Nexus connects fine (using WPA2 security) with a link speed of 54Mbps. If I change the router to Wireless N only (2.4GHZ) , the Nexus can't connect. The Nexus sees the router and I put in the password but it won't connect Now, my HTC Sensation works fine in Wireless N only mode. So is my Nexus only connecting in G?

I have the exact same router and had connectivity issues. If you're familiar with flashing stuff, goto Dd-wrt and flash the aftermarket firmware (read everything!). Fixed all my problems and UI is much better than Linksys' limitations.

Not so sure its the router

I have this problem too on my Nexus 7.

I've a Netgear DGN3300 which is a/b/g/n 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. My Samsung Galaxy 2 phone connects at speeds up to 65Mbs fine. My Nexus 7 refuses to connect at anything abover 54Mbs. My laptop connects all the way up to 300Mbs with no problem.

I can have just my phone connected at 65Mbs and nothing else using Wi-Fi and still the Nexus refuses to connect at anything beyond 54Mbs.

While I accept it may be a router problem, with a phone and a laptop connecting fine at N speeds and the Nexus 7 not... it looks like a Nexus 7 issue to me.

If its not really capable of consistently making Wi-Fi N connections then it shouldn't be advertised as such.

FWIW, same problem here. If I put my dd-wrt wrouter into NG mixed mode, my nexus 7 connects fine. If I go to N only, in any frequency, it won't connect. Security is set to WPA2 and AES encryption. It can see the network, but won't attempt to authenticate. I have tried setting a static ip as well. It worked in mixed mode, but not n only.
