[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
You would be surprised how few of us are 'professional' in regards to having used the particular talents we are gaining in a professional sense. Sure, i've worked in computers in various capacities, but to say I did anywhere near the breadth of things I am free to play with here professionally would be such a lie the term 'stretching the truth' doesn't really apply.

My work life was one of rhythms of activity and lulls of non for a while, but my new employer is running me ragged and there's a lot of interstate driving involved. I'm starting to get used to the level of strain put on my physical shell, but it's a lot at the moment. I'm working with others to get my files back up for now, and trying to get my digital life accustomed to my new physical one.

...and likewise for bulletproof, or anything i've done.

This right here illustrates the very core of what XDA is - developers sharing their developments in large part for others to build on. By comparing the code of the different softwares available you can see how people did different things, and learn ten times what you can from any tutorial or walk-through.

Just diving in and doing is a big part of learning this stuff, and the learning curve really is as steep as you make it. Setting obscene goals without the hundreds of little steps in between to get there is a silly but common approach. My best advice to anyone starting out is to not expect too much from yourself, and just give it a shot.

The best way to learn what you don't know is to give it a try.

Hah - That's why I hold a grudge against Titanium backup. Not because it doesn't work - but rather because it does. People restoring data from older versions of the ROM or some other ROM altogether is 9 times out of 10 a nightmare to deal with.

Talk about troubleshooting ghosts :eek:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] crimedave1987:
damn blue you need a relaxing break a vacation maybe make more awesome roms to release your stress lol
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DorkyDev:
If I took the latest rom update would it relock my sim? I am using t-mobile and found Streak_407_20707_14.pkg 2.3.3 official update from dell.

Just don't wanna update the rom to find out I got to get the sim unlocked again, so thought I'd ask.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edrill:
No. Once unlocked, no ROM upgrades (or even downgrades) will lock the Streak.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DorkyDev:
Cool thanks.
[Off-topic] AFAinHD:
Okay, now I have had this computer for about 2 weeks now. I have a GeForce 430 inside and I'm starting to get pissed. Recently I've added 3 new fans, 2 120 mm fans on the top running at around 2,000 RPM and one on the side case (now sitting directly under my gpu) which is a 80 mm running at 2,700 RPM. I have PLENTY of air running through this thing I take off the case and its like being by an air conditioner its so damn cool, But since I've added the fans, by GPU is showing very weird temperatures. Now let me tell you my normal temperatures. Since I have installed the new fans my cpu is running at about 80-90 degrees f. My ram is running at about 73. But whenever I play Diablo 3, the GPU shows readings of, listen to this, 209.3 degrees, and the thing about it is, before you open Diablo, its running at about 47 degrees CELSIUS, when you open Diablo it instantly jumps to 70, and then 80, then 90, then slowly makes it's way to 100, and randomly from 90-100 the BIOS takes over and shuts down the GPU from reading such high levels of heat, which bluescreens me, but this last time, I opened my case, and when the GPU started showing temperatures of 93 Celsius. I stuck my hand under it's heatsink, just to feel relativity cold air blowing out. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.

Here is a picture of my computer View attachment 1310485

Sorry it's a little dirty, I have been working on my computer for the past 8 hours, so cleaning wasn't my main concern.

Let it burn :p
[Off-topic] AFAinHD:
This is off-topic? Damn...thanks for telling me. I'll go post it in the s3 forums right away. This topic is about my computer. I've been on this site for over 2 years. I think I know what to put into off topic.
[Off-topic] DanceOff:
Just see what kind of threads are here
[Off-topic] AFAinHD:
Okay dude seriously? I've been on the floor for the past 4 HOURS WORKING ON A COMPUTER! I'm tired. Okay? I just want to fix my GPU. I have posted threads about my old computer in off topic before, so I think I know what I'm doing on XDA. Where do you suggest I post this thread? The atrix HD forum? How about the nexus 7 forums? If you aren't gonna help me fix my computer stop posting in my tread. You've already pulled it off topic enough.
[Off-topic] Zantiszar:
I'll take a wild guess either the factory thermal compound is really bad or it doesn't have at all cause its a low their card so it can't produce that much heat.

Another would be that the fans wouldn't be spinning adequetly like you look at them and they are spinning but without force

If possible download MSI after burner and set up a custom fan profile see if it helps tho I'm still wander how can it get so hot because I had a 6970 which uses a lot of power and voltage and it never went up more than 75C even right now I'm using a over clock 6850 and its has a very high OC and never gets past 68C
[Off-topic] AFAinHD:
That's the thing though. I don't think its truly getting that hot. Because it has a 20°C increase the moment you open diablo. I literally do not think that is possible.
[Off-topic] Zantiszar:
I would try to go with the cards fans first because a jump like that is too much mine jumps from 45C to 58C then gradually goes up after that but instant 20C yup sounds weird
[Off-topic] DanceOff:
Take your pc to some pc repair(what I take as a last option ) shop otherwise you May melt your gpu (being polite this time )
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
Try reseating the fan/heat sink. They could be improperly seated.
[Off-topic] MaBlo:
This won't fix your problem, but a friendly advice. All those cables are probably obstructing your airflow, its a complete mess.
[Off-topic] AFAinHD:
Well, that graphics card burned itself out, it hit 212°. So I went ahead and bought a Gigabyte 7770. I'm running Diablo at 110 fps now. :) Thanks for micro center and their amazing deals.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] syde1020:
OK so here's the deal. My upgrade is here (Verizon) and I'm really diggin the new razr m, but I've only used HTC devices and I LOVE them. So should I use my upgrade for the razr m at 50 bucks or should I wait on one of the new unannounced HTC devices that looks to be releasing later this month. I love HTC but I can't spend 200 on a new device right now. Come on guys help lead me in the right direction lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 8on3s:
You know I usually judge my next purchace on how well its built, is the software current, and of course rootability. Motorola just recently stated most 2011 models will be upgraded to 4.0 or 4.1 (can't recall exactly). They are working with devices that do preform well and have decent battery life, plus at that upgrade price, that's a killer deal.

Now that I have become a Motorola rep for you lol, try it out see if it fits you, if not move on. It's all about choice in Android.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rpn377:
I really think you should spend 100$ more and get the galaxy s3 (wireless.amazon.com for 150$) or, spend 99$ for a galaxy nexus. I'm never buying a motorola phone, they seem pretty notorious for not updating their software. Also, if you are a fan of XDA and the things that are happening here, stick to what's hot and is going to continue generating interest for at least the next 2 years - which in this case, i think will definitely be the S3. The nexus phones are also super popular and will be worked on too.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fargles:
don't go motorola, just don't. They're garbage (coming from a Droid X2.)

In all honesty, right now, I'd go with the G-nex. I don't really like the S3, but it's just personal taste I guess
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Avoid Motorola like the plague.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
I would keep my upgrade and wait for the next HTC nexus. My dinc 2 shows no signs of dieing so I think ill be able to wait that long.

Moto is good if you don't want root.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:
Sammy galaxy note 2 - dropping Verizon like a bad habbit + quad core + easily rooted + 4.1 out the box
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] syde1020:
Looks like ill hold my upgrade for a while.... no Motorola. Maybe HTC will come through with something nice
[Galaxy Note II General] Third Strike:
I think this deserves a topic.

According to T-Mo news, a user agent string leaked, possibly indicating that a T-Mobile version of the Note II is on it's way. The model number is SGH-T889, which would make it ten digits higher than the original Note, SGH-T879. The phone is also packing a 1280×720 resolution, and running Android 4.1.

Also, on the T-Mobile S III board here on XDA, another user noted that a minor update to the SGH-T889 is already available on Samsung-Updates website, which means the Note II could be close to launching soon. I'm guessing we'll hear more in the coming weeks.
[Galaxy Note II General] takgeun68:
Yes I am very excited for T-Mobile version, since the deal with AT&T was cancelled, Tmobile is definitely stepping up with their lines of smart phone The biggest news and rumor would be that Tmo version (I dont know about other carriers) will still carry Exonys quad core! unlike the galaxy s3 where they downgraded the CPU. Now thats very exciting news when any ETA for the galaxy note 2 for TMO? I heard lastest November but I hope they release them in October.
[Galaxy Note II General] claud_face:
Maybe a little research would tell me this but didn't they switch it in the gs3 so that the gs3 could handle 42 mbps network?

Or was that only for the gs2?

Wouldn't the cpu seeing as its same as the gs3 international one exynos still not be compatible with T-Mobile 42 mbps?

I apologize beforehand if CPUs are actually different.
[Galaxy Note II General] oka1:
To answer a couple of the comments

Yes TMO is confirmed to have the Note2

TMobile will/ is supposed to be converted in ALL of the USA to 1900/2100 banding by 1/1/13 (4 Months) (LTE)

I confirmed that the TMO is a Quad core 2 gig ram w/ 16gig int sd +ext sd.......:fingers-crossed:;):)
[Galaxy Note II General] Third Strike:
Do you have a possible release for the Note II, on T-Mobile? Also, assuming you have inside info, do you know if Charlotte will get LTE/1900MHz before next year?
[Galaxy Note II General] Atmazzz:
So that means I could get the International as soon as they come out, pop in my Tmo sim and in 4 months I would have LTE? Until then it would be Edge?

Any idea if it will be a mini or micro sim?
[Galaxy Note II General] bossg4:
Micro
[Galaxy Note II General] witeboy07:
I'll definitely be selling my s3.. I want this baby so bad..
[Galaxy Note II General] J_Bone:
Can any of you smart fellas offer an educated guess on what the new line sale price will be? We (my company) will be switching to T-Mobile at the end of this week. I can buy the S3 for $125. I mentioned that I was interested in the Note 2 as well and the rep is offering to let me purchase the Note 2 at the subsidized price when it arrives. He will be getting me a "loaner" for now, if I go that route.

Just trying to weigh out the difference. I have a fairly large phone-nerd streak in me but if I am looking at an additional $250, I may have to scratch my head a bit on the decision. The S3 looks pretty sweet.

Any advice is welcome.

Thanks guys!

(Currently on the S2 on Sprint)
[Galaxy Note II General] AgDon:
Is there any possiblity that the Note II could come with both HSPA+ and LTE for T-Mobile? It would be nice if it would be able to use LTE after the first of the year when TMO starts it up.
[Galaxy Note II General] vebulous:
I know this thread has been asleep for a while, but with all the crazyness happening with HSPA+, LTE, etc. for Tmo, If it is possible to get the INT version of the n7100 and get LTE in 4-14 months, that makes an investment in the Note 2 a very wise choice....something I like to do.

But something does bother me. Although I haven't confirmed this, but I read somewhere that tmo HSPA+ is not available for the Note 2. Which seems kinda weird.

Can anyone clarify this?
[Galaxy Note II General] achusaysblessyou:
The N7100 is the international version and if you buy that for Tmobile, you won't get HSPA+ or LTE as it only has HSPA+ (for AT&T, but if T-Mobile is refarming the 1900MHz band in your area, you'll actually get HSPA+) and no LTE bands.

The T-Mobile version, coming out later this month, will support both the current HSPA+ (On T-Mobile on the 1700mhz AWS spectrum) and the LTE bands that T-Mobile plans to use for their LTE rollout.

In short, wait for the T-Mobile one, and get it.
[Galaxy Note II General] duowing:
I believe that the AT&T and T-Mobile Note II will be essentially identical. I believe that since Samsung is using the Exynos in the US versions that they're using the same Qualcomm modem in both, so on AT&T it can take advantage of LTE and on T-Mo it will allow the HSPA 42+, and then it will be able to use LTE once it starts rolling out.
[Galaxy Note II General] newageoutlaw:
They didn't downgrade the CPU in the US Version of the GS3. The international version does have the Exonys Quad core but its the last(older) generation of that chip. The US version came with a duel core S4 chip with 2 gigs ram... which if you actually ran tests, it runs crazy fast and even faster than then Quad core Exonys. This Galaxy Note 2 has the same Exonys Quad core(older version) as the int GS3 and also 2 gigs of ram which make it crazy quick.
[Galaxy Note II General] achusaysblessyou:
What actually makes it quick is the architecture of the S4 chip itself which uses 28 nm transistors for less heat and power consumption as well as the fact that it's based off both the A9 and A15 ARM reference chips whereas the Exynos is A9 based only, so you also get the benefits of the better architecture. However, the Exynos 5 (A15 based) look to wipe the floor with anything on the market currently.

Well, the modems/radios are pretty much band-agnostic, meaning you could probably re-program it to work with any GSM carrier around the world (as long as the chip supports it). That's why the ATT OG Galaxy Note could be reprogrammed to be used on T-Mobile
[Off-topic] withbloodskies:
If this gets closed it gets closed, I just want someone to assure me.

I had a working N64 sold for 40$ to a guy. I took pictures of it working and all that good stuff, after be tried using it he said it didn't work and wanted a refund basically.

Normally I probably would but because I needed the money, I told him a few things hoping to get it to work, he still had issues. Eventually he wanted a refund, I said I'm sorry, it left my home in working condition. Its buyer beware all sales are final.

He reported back with "a unreadable sentence" -if its possible, but of not ought I got you...-.

Because I refused to return the money and it does work, can he call the cops, will they do anything? I just want to be assured.

Now all this was for a measly 40$.

Thoughts are welcome please!
[Off-topic] ScatteredHell:
Maybe he broke it?

I'm not sure what will he do.

I will respect to you, if you can respect to the other rest.
[Off-topic] StormMcCloud:
No he can't call the cops. He should have verified its functionality prior to paying you. He can't do anything about it and is honestly probably just trying to scam you. Likely he had a broken one and is trying to swap it for yours.

But long story short the sale is buy any 3 screen protectors and then apply the coupon code and you would be golden. For 3 Nexus 7 screen protectors the deal would come out to 4.50 which is a very hard deal to pass up on.

I am looking into buying the Infinity but am concerned about the Q/C issues that I have been reading about. I am adding a poll in the hopes that I will be able to get a better visual representation of how many tablets people have gone through before getting a tablet that doesn't have any issues. It is also my hope that this poll will help others who are in my position. I know that there are other threads detailing the problems but I am hoping for an easier way to see the actual results. Thank you for your participation!

Hey Guys!

I have gotten my second Infinity yesterday, since the first one had serious clicking issues.

Guess what? This time: clicking frame + slight light bleed AND the wrong colour! :D

I really don't know what to do...

Should I request a new one or just ask my money back and buy something else?

What do you think?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Codesworth:
Only one like most people. People that have problems will always scream louder than those without. The forums here may seem negative at times but I guarantee you most people are more than happy with there tablets.

I am most likely going to hold onto the Infinity and then when the ASus VIVO Windows 8 comes out , I will get it.... you guys feel that I should be able to get a good price for the Infinty as long as I keep it in good shape..with the keyboard dock??

One. Had an issue with web browsing, kept fcing. Once I did a factory reset and permanently removed flash its been great.

Using my third one and this one seems perfect. The first one had a big cluster of bad pixels. Second one had weird fingerprints beneath the glass, bad volume rocker which seemed a bit stuck in the housing.

But I think we have a winner now (fingers crossed).
