It's pretty good, considering it's so much less than a lot of the other offerings. There are a few times that it gets a little crackly, but for the most part good sound.

Could you at least tell us if you have a built in microUSB charging unit or if you decided to go with the plug-in variety like you did with the S3? I know that in particular is a deciding factor for many people.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] FormeriPhoney:
I had the ibolt for my S3....excellent quality mount.

I'd be interested in one for my Gnote 2
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] corybrubaker:
One thing I think would be a art design would be to give us a usb option to the cable so we could use a shorter or lpnger cord to our liking
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MikaelPe:
Yes, we are going with a similar solution to the Galaxy S III iBOLT cradle for the USB charging although wireless charging will come during 2013. By the end of the 1st quarter with Qi technology (works great with thin 1-layered cases) and by the 2nd half of the year with improved technology allowing wireless charging with thick cases. We have a spring loaded latch so inserting and removing the phone will be a 1-hand movement with no reason to push any release button or fold down any latch.

The reason for our decision to go with microUSB steel enforced arm for charging is case compatibility. A "slide-on" connector type what we are doing for the HTC One X Dock can only be made to work with cases up to about 2 mm thick, type Otterbox Commuter for reference. Over the past year are completely inundated with requests for car-docks that work with Otterbox Defender case, Ballistic, Trident etc or extended batteries. It seems like a lot of "road warriors" or people with long commutes maybe use these type of cases?

Our main challenge right now is that car-mode is still not "turned on" from Samsung in any Jellybean Note 2 version, although we have high hopes of this being fixed as Samsung is now engaged with us trying to fix this. The car-mode allows the installation of a "car-dock" app type CarHome Ultra which now becomes your new home screen as long as you have it in the dock. Thanks for your patience. We are pleasantly surprised to see over 25.000 views and plenty of emails coming in from this one thread alone.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nerys71:
less about road warriors (for me at least though I do drive 40k a year) and more about .....

THE COST TO REPLACE THEM !! Ouch :) hehe S3 $400 Note II $600 ouch. the reason this is such an issue is that the mass and screen size are high enough now that damage on a drop is a higher probability no matter how well they build them. (its physics only so much you can do G's are G's) so bulkier thicker cases provide more shock protection in a drop.

I bet a years salary this really is one of the reasons apple is reluctant to let go if itty bitty screens. they don't think they can build it strong enough yet.

ALSO they are getting thinner and thinner (7.6mm for the S3) which makes them more "fumbly" ie easier to drop :) the thicker cases provide better grip and solve the thickness problem.

the nice thing is in the past a bulky case would a thick phone into a brick. now the phones are so thin that a thick case simply makes the phone "thick" not brick like. (though the screen takes care of brick like in the other 2 dimensions :)

I am glad to hear they can do something about the wireless charging and thicker cases. my sole reason for wanting viable wireless charging is this.

the phones are reaching a point of diminishing returns. I forsee within 2-3 years short of a "massive" breakthrough we are going to start KEEPING the phones we have longer.

why upgrade from a WM to a SII? because it really is better. why upgrade that to an S3 or Note II ? because it really is better. measurably.

but S3 to S4 ? many will but not nearly as "compelling" as S2 to S3. there is a current limit to just how much they can shove into these things.

wearing out the USB jack is going to become a concern. hence the desire for wireless charging (above and beyond its convenience factor)

I found out an igrip will JUST BARELY hold a Note II in a jelly tank case (a pretty bulky case) you have to force it a little to get it in and out but it holds really nicely :)

so thats what I will use till I see what you guys come up with !
[Nook Color General] altya:
Hi,

As titled, need help in finding out what's the cause of the problem.

My extreme ride side of the screen (near e edge) for the middle section is not responding to touch anymore, so with e default keyboard, in portrait mode, i can never press the P letter.

I tested the screen with e multi screen test app and i found out that the length of e unresponsive side stretches to around 5 to 6cm in e middle section, with e lower end just under the P letter and stretches up...

I tried to use the Nook screen calibration app but didnt helped, i also reflashed CM7 and Mirage-CM7 over multiple times but still same issue...

Any idea wats going on? It was still working find few days ago :(

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Gorestav:
Hello

While trying to restore my backup data from advanced restore in CWM after doing an update to the latest FXP139, I get an error message saying this:

e: format_volume make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p14

I have gotten this message before but last time I updated it worked fine. Seems to happen pretty randomly.

I'm following these steps while updating:

> First make a nandroid! IMPORTANT

> Flash Bin4ry's recovery image <here> (Instructions in thread)

> Reboot phone and it will automatically boot into recovery

> Format /system

> Wipe data/factory reset

> Wipe Dalvik Cache

> Flash ROM

> Flash GApps

> Reboot and let the initial setup take place (Not sure whether this is necessary but just do it to be safe)

> Reboot into recovery

> Go into backup and restore, choose advanced restore, select your backup and select restore /data

> Finally reboot and you should be upgraded with all your data preserved

Does anyone have a clue why this is happening?

Thanks!

Also I tried using adb: adb reboot recovery but phone reboot normally...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fareed_xtreme:
When the phone boots up, I believe you get a multi-coloured illumination of the LED Bar (Red Green & Blue). When this comes, just press the down volume key repeatedly (usually once or twice is enough but it might take some time to get used to it)

Cant enter into recovery mode (CWM) - Xperia U

Hi,

I am also facing the same issue. I've rooted my phone and installed CWM also. Now when i do restart to my phone, when sony logo appears (without multi-coloured illuminating LED Bar ), I start pressing 'Volum Down' button repeatedly. But it doesnt enter into Recovery mode. I simply goes to Xperia logo loading and then after that it starts loading the Internal storage and starts up with older ROM.

I dont know, if I am doing something wrong or I am not getting the correct way to boot it in recovery mode.

Plz Help.:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] umair42:
If you installed only recovery(not custom kernel),then when sony logo appears,repeatedly press volume down key.You will enter into recovery.

If you installed custom kernel,then when sony logo appears,repeatedly press volume up key.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] carlaba2:
I had this problem before and I discovered my phone had not been rooted correctly. Have you checked that?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Imperial_Raj:
Check for root. Also try this:

When the phone boots, it will vibrate at the Sony logo. Try tapping the screen multiple times at that moment. My current kernel (Sliding XSola V4) has this tap to enter recovery.

Try that and report.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrw187:
I'm getting the same damn problem.

Im on stock ICS

[HTC ChaCha] atrix4g18:
Would it be possible to port this? Now that it is open. This might be a better OS for the Status/Chacha.

http://blog.openwebosproject.org/post/32462950628/open-webos-1-0-edition
[HTC ChaCha] tokafondo:
Open WebOS is as open as is Android: the kernel and drivers must be supplied by the manufacturer or developer, and certain apps like 'phone', 'sms', 'mms'... are not part of the open distribution.

Think that Open WebOS must be ported to EXISTING WebOS devices...
[HTC ChaCha] atrix4g18:
Interesting, would be great on the ChaCha/Status because it is a very smooth OS and will work great with the keyboard.
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
I totally would enjoy to see this on the Chacha. Since WebOS ran on keyboard devices I hope that it will have better keyboard support than android.

I also noticed that someone was able to port WebOS to some other HTC Android device and used the drivers from Android. However, problem will be the drivers of course. :-/
[HTC ChaCha] atrix4g18:
The idea of the keyboard is what I was thinking. It would be a very similar experience on the chacha/status. Plus it is very fast.
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
it would be interesting to see a port of a totally different OS to the phone.

http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/b2g/

for example.

but the amount of work it would entail would require a lot of very skilled developers, and a ton of research on the phone hardware as well as current available software.

I doubt it will ever happen - but it would be nice to see.

Honestly, at this point, I really wish that people would get together and make a CM10 port for the ChaCha/Status. I think it will improve performance and battery life even more than the current unofficial port of CM9.
[HTC ChaCha] atrix4g18:
CM10 should be out in the next couple of months. The problem is there are like 2 real good developers for the htc chacha/status and they have lives to live. So they don't constantly work on this stuff. Which sucks. this is a great phone and we need more devs
[HTC ChaCha] kronflux:
^ couldn't agree more. it's a beautiful phone, and it has so much potential. I only wish HTC would realize this, and support it more - or better yet, develop another version of it, which has a little more power out of the box.
[HTC ChaCha] atrix4g18:
This phone, with a dual core 1ghz processor same ram but 1gb would be nice and maybe just a little better screen. But just a dual core 1ghz processor and this becomes the best android phone in my opinion. I also have an atrix 4g but for most things I prefer this phone.
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Unfortunately HTC said that it will discontinue to make phones with hardware keyboards... :(

However, I think the people that work on porting things to the HTC Chacha are limited. We could try to support them with some donations. But even if someone is willing to work on the port for some small amount of money we don't have any guarantee if the result of WebOS for the Chacha will be what we expect since it will depend on the drivers.

Also when they port CM10 to the chacha I really would like to see someone improving the keyboard support especially for the call functions. I gut 2 calls at the same time today and you can't even use the green phone key to switch between the calls since it just will open a new dialer insted of checking what is going on in the moment.

Would be nice of one of the developers to comment this here.
[HTC ChaCha] lucasarran:
I will look into WebOS once someone else ports it to a ARMV6 phone. As the current phone which has WebOS so far is Galaxy Nexus, even the port for the Nexus isn't that great at the moment.

As for all the dev work, I think what we have at the moment is great for a lowend phone as we have CM7, CM9 and CM10 soon. Plus I'm going to start finishing some ROMs which I started couple of months ago. Donate to Adlx as he's keeping the dev work going on in his free time when he has Family also. :)
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
I already work on B2G for Chacha, and it didn't work. Later we saw it will not work as b2g (at least in the current state) doesn't support armv6.

MTP working with XP

Here is what I had to do to get MTP working with XP SP3:

1: Download and install MTPPK12

2: Download and intall Media Player 11

3: Connect the N7 to the PC via the USB cable and set USB to MTP instead of "Camera".

4: Open "Settings" and turn off "USB debugging".

5:eek:pen "Device Manager" on the PC and look for "Android Device". If you find and entry for an "ADB" device, uninstall the driver. Unplug the N7 and plug it back in. The PC should now find a device titled "Nexus 7" and install the driver. Open "My Computer" and "Nexus 7" should now be listed and ready to transfer files.

A little something to get USB-Debugging working

Hey guys,

for those who want to use their precious Android with enabled USB-debugging at a Win XP system:

1. get some drivers that work fine without enabled debugging (for HTC disciples: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191279 ) and install them.

2. switch your device to usb-debugging and look up the exact hardware-ID @ your device manager (device manager -> android device -> details -> hardware ID) - keep that window open for you'll need the exact key

3. Search the installed drivers (for me it was C:\Programme\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\XP_x86) and edit the 'androidusb.inf'.

4. In the file, look for the 'Device Section' and scroll way down to the 'For XP and later' section. Here you copy the first entry and paste in your hardwareID.

For me, I took:

and changed it to:

5. Next scroll down until you find the '[Strings]' section. Here you do the same thing as before:

Copy the first entry and edit it according to your hardwareID.

For me, I took:

and changed it to:

(you are free to name it what ever you want ;) )

Next you'll need to scroll down until the patten changes from

to

here you'll need to copy the first entry again and edit it to match your needs. Just copy the device name you have entered before.

6. Finally you can install the drivers manually via your device manager. Just choose your pimped androidusb.inf as driver and you should be able to work with your android phone at usb-debugging (for example for MyPhoneExplorer).

Of cause I am not responsible if you wreck your Win XP / your drivers so don't overdo it. If you don't know what you are doing, do it like the Beatles and 'let it be' :D

My problem is that most people searching a thread like this aren't going to read every post. They go to the "last page" to see what the latest solution is. Your post was on the last page by itself and I was concerned that noobs reading it would think it was "the best" solution.
