Saying it will be worth nothing is a little over dramatic. It's a good deal for both people I think.

That offer is like saying I'll trade my Corvette for your Malibu. This is an Android forum after all and although an Apple fanboy may think the iPhone 4S is something special anyone here realizes it's an over hyped, tiny screen, outdated, joke of a smartphone...The S3 is 10 times the phone the 4S is! Good luck!!

I will not flame you or anything but id suggest trying a site like craigslist in order to get a trade. Its kind of hard to trade an Iphone on an android site you know?

just

a phone, their not important whatsoever. Just because we are Android users doesn't mean we go on hating every Iphone user. Their are some that *gasp* are not fanboys of their crappy products.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobdude5:
I'll do it pm me. The gs3 is a little laggy for my taste and the ui is very cluttered and cartoonish. I prefer the smootheness of iOS and perfect synchronization across products. Also this phone feels way too cheap, like its a toy. Screen is really nice though, but then again so is the iPhones but just a little smaller.

Seriously if you hate the iPhone, that's fine that's your opinion but you don't need to fill my post up with your fanboy posts. I don't need your opinion if it was a bad purchase or you think it sucks. Yes it's XDA but that's why I posted because an android site is the best spot to find one.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikuNoctis:
Hi, thanks for reading...

I have two problems that I think are related to the stock launcher:

One of the desks of the launcher shows a black shadow instead of a green shadow whenever I try to put a widget or icon in that place. I can't put anything there and it's a full row.

The Music Player Widget cannot be added because the launcher says "Widget already added" over and over.

I already have tried clering the data from the launcher; even tried factory reset but didn't work.

Note: I'm using a brand new Xperia Play with 2.3.3 and .145 stock ROM, not rooted. Everything is like new, but I have these issues.

Any help would be aprecciated. Thanks in advance...

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camason24:
I was using my Kindle a while ago and noticed that the battery was going pretty low and not charging right. I hoped that it would resolve the problem by itself, but no. Instead, I turn it on to find it stuck in pretty much a tenth of a second Bootloop. It shows the FireFireFire symbol then goes away almost instantaneously. I cannot think of anything I have done to it. I was using Hashcode's 4.1.1 Jellybean ROM and it was working great. I have a charger that I do not know if it is a legitimate Kindle charger, but before this it was charging just fine. If you could help me, that would be great :) I would not like to spend another $40 on a new kindle battery. Thanks!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Leave it alone for a while and give the battery a rest for a bit. Then plug your usb cable into the computer first then your Kindle. As soon as it comes on, hold the power button to cause it to hard shutdown. With any luck, it will shut down and stay off. If so, leave it off and plugged in for quite a while; it should charge. If you can't get it to hard shutdown (keeps turning back on), sometimes heating up the battery a little will give it just enough of a boost to make it work.

Hey guys and gals,

Tonight my a500 was stolen. I work in sales and use it to look things on the net for customers (like price comparisons, etc) and use it for the website and lots of other business-type things (as well as lots of personal pics etc).

But, unfortunately when my back was turned, someone swiped it...!!!! argh:angry:

I had the newest release of jellybean on it from the forums here on xda, but had no remote wipe app installed (never even crossed my mind to do it). Therefore, I'm wondering if the is any remote wipe abilities in jellybean or if there was an app by chance that i had installed that would have this feature hidden (like onavo or norton utilities... reading now).

If anyone can help that would be amazing! Changed all my passwords, etc. So, I should be fine there. thanks guys

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Sorry mate. Not a lot you can do about it at this time.

Just cherish the thought of what's going to happen when he decides jb is too buggy, and tries to install a different rom. :laugh:

I suppose a new user will be posting all kinds of questions here at xda in the near future!

Still sorry to hear it got pinched. I know the feeling.

[Acer Iconia A500] kylereid:
thanks man. thought i was buggered lol. I left a facebook update that i hope shows up on the notifications in the tablet and make the culprit feel guilty. maybe it'll show up in the morning at work... fingers crossed. made me look at getting a wipe app for the old phone now, went with seekdroid. seems legit. any other suggestions?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I don't have a lot of faith in those types of apps. They usually only work if an idiot steals it. Over here, pinching phones and tabs is big business, and usually done by pro's. They're quick to dump the device to another agent, who runs a stock full rom on it, clones the IMEI number from a good device , then dumps it to one of the umpteen million fly by night resellers. They (moscow govt) talked about cracking down on multiple PH number/IMEI combinations, then quickly realized over half the devices in Russia would stop working! Including their own!

Best thing to do, never let it out of your sight. Get a new device, like I did my phone, and the pain goes away.

But then again, maybe your culprit is a true idiot, and will post fotos to your facebook account!!!!!

[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
WAS YOU SIGNED INTO GOOGLE maps? latitude?

if so go to google.maps and click location history u can now see where your a500 is!!!!

good luck and hope you kick his ass:good:

i have "prey" software installed on all my devices for such problem
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
oh yea def' just thought for pot-luck :D,

it is a pitty when you let someone come into your house as a friendly gesture only to find them stealing from you,... ive had my fair share and also a fair share of miss-understandings thereafter because of a newly aquired paranoia..... but i think its 100% justified.
[Acer Iconia A500] lifeofcoding:
If you download the lookout app and install it, if you ever lose your tablet, on the lookout website you can see where it is, (if GPS was enabled when lost) you can also do a remote wipe, and a remote siren, make it put off an alarm remotely.

Its a good app to have just in case, but doesn't help if the app was not installed before being lost or stolen.
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
yeah sound like the prey app too , i can also send a popup message to the tab screen, be near the location displayed on the map and then activate a "S-SCARING" siren lol

also one good thing is prey uses the location services through wifi as well as gps, tells you the address of the current and last wifi hotspots logged into :D

so if it says currently "wii hotspot mcdonalds fast food , thief street. lol go to the mcdonalds and set off the alarms,...clearly see your tablet...and a jackass who need a beating. :highfive::highfive::highfive::highfive:
[Acer Iconia A500] kylereid:
hey man, great idea! no luck...

and thanks guys for al of the advice! still no luck with the tab :( i think the worst part of it is was that i was really getting to love it. like the development here, especially with jb!, is fantastic. and i was a kickstarter supporter for chameleon and now seeing the new updates really puts salt on the wound. lol. in the next month i'll need another tablet, so im debating on finding another 2nd hand one for the price of a nexus 7, or just getting the 7. only thing is though, is the size....

thanks again.
[Acer Iconia A500] gfinockio:
I'm assuming you've looked into "Plan B" on the Android market, right? It automatically installs from the market on your tablet, and broadcasts location immediately on install. Not sure how accurate or helpful it is, but if you haven't tried it yet... you probably should.

The other option is to put out some Wanted To Buy ads...
[Acer Iconia A500] kylereid:
i already changed the passwords, i wasn't aware of Plan B. great idea though! i tried it anyways lol.

Let me describe about this case.I have used samsung galaxy s2.When I am in the dark,i touch on the touchscreen and flash of camera will be light.At this time,camera will focus on something and i only need capture what i want.Pictures captured from samsung galaxy 2 in the dark is so nice.

With HTC Amaze 4g!When i touch the screen,flash led of camera never to light so camera can not focus anything until I touch capture button.Because camera can not focus so pictures captured from HTC Amaze is so poor.

Sorry because my bad english.This case is happening on everyone or only with me?And why best camera phone can not do something like samsung galaxy s2?

He is saying use [ROM]CyanogenMod10 to test if the camera works better, because the CyanogenMod10 ROM works the same on other phones / tablets. Only use it for testing and not for your daily driver (as in not for daily use). Once done testing flash a fully working ROM that has no known issues, so you can use it as a daily driver.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeremyt727:
So i am running LiquidSmooth JB v2.0 ROM and i've been wanting to run a proper Franco Kernel. Here is why i say "proper."

After i do a wipe data/cache and dalvik, i'd flash the LiquidSmooth Rom. After flashing ROM i would flash the Franco.kernel r241-384GPU which would install successfully. Great! After booting up successfully, i would check in the "About phone" section to see if Franco.kernel was the version running but it says "unavailable" though it supposedly flashed without a problem and installed app updates. I then tried Franco.kernel r241-512GPU and same issue.

So i don't know if i am running the Kernel correctly and it's just telling me im not... or am i really not running a kernel?

Heres a screenshot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dascjb:
That is a known issue with some ROMS, not a big deal you are running the correct kernel. You can verify by downloading cpuspy it lists your kernel also. I have the same situation and have been using Franco Kernel for a long time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeremyt727:
Woah! Awesome. Thanks for your help man! :good:

Must be an issue with that ROM. Because mine shows.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jejb:
I have to wait a little while until my current contract with Sprint is up before getting the Evo LTE. But I see them on ebay for about the same money as one would cost me in the store once I'm upgrade elegible. I'm wondering how the ebay phone process works to get it working on the Sprint network? I've only bought phones from Sprint and BB in the past. I know I need a clean ESN, but what I'm wondering is about activation and insurance. Does it cost me money to activate an ebay phone or can I just do it through the website tools? Is it possible to get insurance for the phone (aftermarket I'd assume)? If so, who do you recommend? Anything else to know about getting it working?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fifasarajevo:
no it doesnt...if you have the phone just call sprint and ask them to activate the phone and theyll ask you for the serial number and such and activate it in a few mins and your good to go with a new evo and still out of contract

not sure about the insurance but there are places that sell insurance that you can buy i just dont know of them :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] popper668:
just tell them to turn on the insurance when you activate or they will "forget" to say anything. I bought an OG EVO from e-bay as long as the seller is reputable you will be ok.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BonkyMoon:
I think that technically there's an activation fee, but from what I've seen before it's not that hard to bypass. If you're finding a phone on ebay that costs the same as the subsidized price, then I'd think very hard about what I was doing. These phones are normally 2-4x the price you pay when you get a subsidy; you're putting yourself up for some real risk if an unsubsidized phone costs as little as a subsidized new phone.

If you do buy it though and it does turn out to be a clean ESN/MEID, then first off congrats since you just dodged a massive bullet and saved tons of money, but also go and sign up for TEP, at least for a few months. The only reason I recommend this is because I'm still not 100% sure that the great deal you got is without a hidden problem that could jump out at you and eat your savings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 00mred00:
Activation fee is charged on a new line or upgrade...not an ESN swap

Plus one for hidden issues/bad ESN.

I would seriously question an EVO on the second hand market for $200-300
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BonkyMoon:
We're definitely on the same page as far as second-hand devices go. That said, I would love clarification on the fee for hidden issues. It's not something I've ever heard of. I'm not discounting it as a falsehood by any means, I really am just very surprised to see such a thing and would love details. Screenshots work best IMO.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
I've seen them go for 300-350 but less than that is a bad phone
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jejb:
Thanks for the input so far. I don't think I can get TEP from Sprint on a phone I did not buy from them. I've found SquareTrade offers a warranty, though. We have used them before, so that is probably the way I'd go there.

There are a lot of these phones on ebay for under $250 right now. I figure $250 is about the break even point when I include the activiation fee and almot 10% sales tax we pay around here. I can't imagine they are all scams. I appreciate the concern, though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] popper668:
you can totally get TEP from sprint on a phone you did not buy from them, I have got it on the last phone I bought. I just asked and they turned it on, it was that simple.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] UberJams:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jejb:
Cool. Good to know.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wolfeyes30:
I look at Craigslist and Ebay almost daily to see what they're selling for. I have one and also the GSIII. One must go soon and if its the EVO, I don't think I'll get more than $300 for it. Some are selling brand new EVO's, well suppose to be, for $250 on CL. My opinion, which means nothing, thinks that maybe the EVO has a bad reputation right now from the people that swapped them out for the GSIII. Not sure.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jejb:
Seems like the S3's are going for much more money. Could be it's because they work for every carrier?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wolfeyes30:
Yes they are.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 00mred00:
misread, seperation indicated different subject. I was agreeing (plus 1) with the chance of bad phone

There are ways, but it isn't the norm. And is against policy

S3's are offered by all 4 but do not have interchangeability . A sprint s3 will not work on Att etc.

It's more of a Flagship, heavily advertised phone that more people want. Simply supply vs demand
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Docarut:
I bought new evo lte from ebay seller. When I called sprint to activate on my line the agent even asked do you want to keep TEP and I said yes. No problem at all and it is there looking on sprint's website in my profile.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 00mred00:
Like I said...its not impossible
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zenEd:
i have bot multiple phones/devices on e-bay. have not had any issues with activation.

one time i bricked a device and the guy i originally bot it from was able to fix it for a small fee.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
The activation fee is only on new phones. It is only when the esn is first activated on sprint. So if I bought a new phone and activated the esn but left it new in box and then sold it to you there'd be no activation fee as the esn was already in sprints system
