My school has the Light speed Systems blocking website tool and I would like to know if there is a way to download ROMs or Kernels from media fire or whatever from my School's WiFi ?
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
Youre going to have to find a proxy site that your school hasnt blocked. Make a list and try some out, cross off any that don't work.
[Off-topic] VeryCoolAlan:
Ahhh I see
[Off-topic] -DarkKnight-:
or you could persuade the dev to make a mirror at some unknown site

or dropbox. my school doesn't block dropbox because teachers use it too

google drive isn't blocked at most schools too because at my school, lots of people use google docs

Other question: My school's wifi requires you to connect to a proxy to access the internet after connecting to their network

on my home wifi network, I use an app called Orbot(its free don't worry) . its like Tor for the PC, except its for android.

its basically like another transparent proxy that allows me to access any site and download stuff not available in the US

is there anyway I can use orbot, while connected to my school's proxy. because orbot doesn't seem to work for me

it only works at home when im not connected to any proxy
[Off-topic] lreyes:
thanks brony i will use orbit at school since the school is allowing us to use our devices well i might if they have surcurity
[Off-topic] gmaster1:
Im not sure if my device has anything to do with matters but i can access any website from my phone on any proxy. It dosnt seem right but its true. Or there are some proxy hiding sites that i use all the time at my school.

I've been testing out galaxy tab 7.0 but thinking about returning. Is it worth it to jump for the 7. Just asking because all off the nexus horror stories are kind of scaring me away
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay Aristide:
We have one of each in the house, and it's worth returning the GTab2 without question. The n7 blows it's doors off
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdk703:
Honestly with a release of this magnitude and given the problems getting them out, you're bound to have plenty of frustrated customers. Mileage will vary of course but, I absolutely love this tablet.

Project Butter was a success IMO
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay Aristide:
Also, keep in mind these horror stories you're hearing are on a forum for android devices, and you're hearing about a couple hundred misfit units out of hundreds of thousands sold. The people having optimal experiences aren't posting anywhere, for the most part, because they've nothing to post about. You want a better idea of how many are faulty/defective, call 50 Walmart supercenters and ask how many they've sold vs how many they've had returned, and you'll probably end up with a much more accurate picture
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philupjfry:
Thanks I'm just trying to grab owner info just to make sure.I'll probably gonna return in the next couple days if not tomorrow. Just trying to get educated a bit. Looks like storage won't be to big a deal. I'd be getting the 16 GB and use USB for my movies and clouds for all the ROMs Id use
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pxlitup:
As someone who has received three units with screen lifting, I wouldn't caution you as strongly as you might expect me to.

That's the only really common defect, and in most cases it is not severe enough to affect usage. The last two I received have been minor cases of separation. The reason I won't accept this flaw is because of the possibility that it will worsen over time, but keep in mind that this is speculative.

No one really knows for sure, and I tend to err on the side of caution, which isn't always a good thing.

My experience with the device has been overwhelmingly positive aside from this, and if the Nexus 7 is right for you then it may be worth purchasing even if you do get one with the kind of separation I've been dealing with. Although the warranty friendly fixes have been found to be temporary, if it bothers you that much then good old fashioned super glue will do the trick. Many who have gone through multiple returns have decided that they like the tablet enough to dispense with this RMA business and jimmy it down themselves.

Although Google does consider units with screen separation defective, many here have refused to let such a minor quibble diminish their enjoyment.

Please note, however, that Jay Aristide does not recognize minor screen lift as a defect for those statistics. His unit has minor separation and it doesn't bother him, which should tell you something about what a great tablet it is.

Trading a Galaxy Tab 2 for a Nexus 7 would be an enjoyable upgrade, definitely.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay Aristide:
Actually, I recognize it as a defect, just mine isn't severe enough to warrant an RMA.. Plus, as I said, I've been able to repair mine from 1.1mm to less than .1mm, then today I tightened the screws and reduced it to perfectly flush with the case bevel.

Anyways, yeah. Amazing tablet, through and through. My son has the GTab2 in the house, and he's been green with envy since I got my n7 :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
I think the issues with the Nexus 7 are real enough. However it's been out a month and it sounds like the newer units are in better shape.

Also I'd still much rather have a Nexus 7 with a little screen lift (the typical issue most owners get) than a perfect Galaxy Tab 2 7.0.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ricolando:
I dumped my GTab 2 for the N7, and haven't regretted it whatsoever. I too have minor screen lift and haven't found it to be an issue, especially with the tight fitting silicon case I just purchased.

Sent from my GNex - Stock/Rooted on 4.1.1
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silentmelodies:
The only reason I wouldn't do it is because of the lack of SD card slot and 3G, which both are very important for me. Otherwise it's a very worthy upgrade considering the specs and dev support ;)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay Aristide:
OTG and a teeny tiny MSD reader (no bigger than the smallest of Bluetooth dongles) takes care of the SD issue, and the vast majority of android phones support infrastructure tethering, so just tether your tab to your phone, drop your phone in your pocket, and (mustering my best Jersey Shore voice) just fuggetuhbowdit

Goodbye htc desire community.

My htc desire was dead the 22/08/2012 at 8:20 am gmt.

Hboot (freeze half the time when looking for pb99* on sdcard) and fastboot work but it don't want to boot into android or recovery, i try with or without sim and sdcard and that don't change anything.

I have also tried to flash a ruu, but the ruu stuck at pushing the files (3 hours no errors, no advancement)...

Flashing a new hboot work but that don't change anything too.

So my desire is dead, i think it's time for him to rest in peace after 2,5 years of hard work.

Thank's to all rom maker's for there god job, giving me tonnes of fun with my phone.

Goodbye.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
But the camera is still seen to be working. When I press the 'Back' button I can see what my camera sees, on my screen for a split second before the app is closed. Doesn't matter what Camera app I use. CameraZoomFX, HDR Camera+ and Pano etc. or just the regular Camera app or whatever. They've all got a black screen now. Taking a picture results in a proper picture being taken, but the 'view finder' is basically ruined. That is, I can't see anything out of the camera before I take the picture..

Coupled with the fact that I have the same problem as this guy:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y25_jYYCnA

(and by the looks of it, many others) the 'Black spot' I think I am going to take it back and get it fixed.. Does anyone know if they just fix the phone, or if they replace it for a new one?

The version I updated my Galaxy S 2, to was XXLQ6 Build XWLPT ICS 4.0.4. via USB Kies.

Has anyone else had this happen before?

Thanks a ton...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
Hi I had the exact same problem but it happened to me when I installed a custom 4.0.4 ROM with a custom 4.0.3. Kernel. Exactly the same symptoms, it was solved by using a bug fix for the siyah kernel. But now there are many custom kernel's designed for 4.0.4. so its no longer an issue. If it was me I would ditch Kies and update myself using samfirmware. Its easy loads of guidance on here about it and try some different 4.0.4 specific kernels. All the best.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
Can't believe it mate but you were totally right. It was just a Kernal error. Flashed Siyah's kernel and didn't expect it to work at all but 'BAM!' rebooted the phone and everything works totally fine. I hope this thread helps anyone else in the future who gets the same problem.

You're a damn life saver mate. I was having tons of issues with this darn thing. Now my wife can finally use her phone properly again :D!!

Added thanks.

No problem, happy to have helped.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cenobite_:
I just installed the official 4.0.4 rom and I also had problems with the camera on the stock kernel. While I wasn't planning to flash a custom kernel yet, I decided to go ahead. I flash Siyah 4.1.5 and lo and behold! It was fixed. Plus all the extras of Siyah.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc5uk:
Thanks!

As a 61 year old NOOB happily playing with myS2 GT i1900 I had this same camera problem after using the official Samsung ICS upgrade. I have spent a very frustrating 3 weeks trying to solve this until I finally found your page. I still don't really understand what a kernel is but my camera works!

[Nokia Lumia 900] matcro369:
I'm new windows phones but not to smartphones. I'm getting confused on some things though. I see people talking about the Nokia suite and updating through there. Are there updates on there that aren't on the windows phone connector(I have a mac so Zune software for the rest of you)? Also I can't seem to find Nokia suite. If anybody could just give me a short tutorial on this that would be helpful.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jimski:
Some people are impatient, or some Carriers drag their feet (all the updates you get through Connector via Microsoft must be certified by your Carrier), so they flash updates to their phone. Not much different than custom ROMs except these aren't custom. They are official Nokia ROMs/updates, but might not include specific Carrier features. So it is a give and take kind of thing. Get anew bug fix, but lose Internet Sharing for example. Things have been pushed through fast enough for my L900 (AT&T) that I haven't needed to look for alternatives (yet).

Remember to take your External SD out after unless you sold the phone with it. Also make sure its wiped too.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spiralzz:
All three are fine. CM10, being based on Jellybean is the newest, with really few bugs (which will hopefully get fixed once Samsung released Jellybean for the S2). Try CM10, otherwise go back to CM9. Make sure to do a nandroid backup of CM9 before moving on, so that if you feel CM9 is better, you don't have to go through setting it up all again.

This thread is becoming more of a "what's the best ROM?" type which is discouraged. You need to check these things yourself as preferences differ from user to user and handset to handset.
