[TouchPad General] nickster1:
We want him to get a touchpad. That's why we donated. Don't listen to the post above yours. He has no idea what he's talking about.
[TouchPad General] PatrickC:
I'll have to sit down with hiemanshu and see what he wants to do. If he wants to still work on getting a touchpad, or if he would prefer to return the money. I'll update here after I talk to him.
[TouchPad General] nickster1:
Sounds like there already is a plan set in place. :)
[TouchPad General] amkaos:
youre 2 for 2 in the wildly inappropriate post dept, in this thread .. You define troll
[TouchPad General] hiemanshu:
I still want to help with the touchpad. And yes I will return the touchpad if it ever comes to me. File a complaint and lets hope for the best.
[TouchPad General] cajunflavoredbob:
That's the response I was hoping for from you. I held off on doing anything today due to the previous comments. I will update this thread tomorrow once I get home. I'm dog sitting tonight.
[TouchPad General] cajunflavoredbob:
OK. Sort of good news. I sent to file a complaint, and noticed that the shipping just updated today. Screen shot attached.

For future reference, I will certainly not be using USPS for international shipping from now on.
[TouchPad General] PatrickC:
That looks good!
[TouchPad General] nickster1:
SWEET so we're still on track here. Yeah I have not heard good things about their tracking.

So I wonder how many days it will take now?
[TouchPad General] sstar:
Lucky it wasn't urgent !!!
[TouchPad General] hiemanshu:
That's good news. I should be able to track this locally from Monday. At least let's hope I can.
[TouchPad General] Pip513:
UPS>USPS. Glad to see it wasn't lost, just hope it gets there intact. I wouldn't mind a liquid smooth TP. :)
[TouchPad General] cajunflavoredbob:
The only reason we went with USPS over UPS or FedEx is due to cost. It was $120 to ship from either of those. USPS was only $60.
[TouchPad General] hiemanshu:
So the TP is now in my City sitting in the customs office waiting for clearance.

Update: Customs clearance is done (this was really much faster than expected), and I should be getting it any time now.
[TouchPad General] PatrickC:
I have seen the TouchPad in hiemanshu's hands! It had arrived! Thanks CFB!
[TouchPad General] amkaos:
didnt donate but been watching..

lets see if the same energy is put into apologies as was

put into scorn

good luck

i forget but this was originally for win8 right..

i hope for something as far along as ICS and i ll donate like i did for that.. so would many others
[TouchPad General] cajunflavoredbob:
Glad to hear it, guys.

Remember to pay it forward. :)

Waiting for your good news.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Lumsdoni:
Can anyone recommend a decent USB OTG that hangs down the side of the nexus 10 rather than sticks out?

Preferably one they've proven to work with an N10.

I appear to have lost my Samsung one I was hoping to use.

Thank you.

Swype'd at pace from my Galaxy S2
[Nexus 10 Accessories] johno86:
I have this one

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GI2VMG/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00

Works perfectly with my thumb drives and external hdd. Not only does it work, but the price was unbeatable.

Don't buy one of those $10+ cables as it does the same exact thing as this one.

I might add, you could possibly look into getting one that can charge the device at the same time it's using an external storage device. Unless you're okay with it.

Stickmount works with root on my devices

Nexus Media Importer works without root on my devices

GNex and N10.

Hope this helps!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] sunoryjim:
Confirmed that my OTG cable works.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] gravis86:
Can you still get to the headphone jack with that cable?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] TehZam:
Is there any long (length wise) USB OTG Cable?

So I can just keep the flash drive or external drive in my messenger bag and use my phone or tablet LOL.

Also will USB 3.0 work with the devices?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] budwizer:
I bought both of these. Both connect with the larger portion of the USB connector towards the screen so they hang down the side of the tablet:

SANOXY Micro USB Host Mode OTG Cable - The connector for this one was flipped from the picture and hangs down the side of my N10.

eForCity Micro USB OTG to USB 2.0 Adapter - This one came just like it was pictured.

Both came from Hong Kong which took about 2 weeks in the mail however they cost just around $1.00 each and with free shipping not much to lose.

I use mine with a elago Mobile Nano II USB 2.0 microSDHC Flash Memory Card Reader and a 32GB card (my 64GB is in my S3). With the adapter in the OTG cable it barely hangs out the bottom and makes it very compact.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] XlAfbk:
I have 2 kinds of OTG cables here, both working perfectly fine with my Galaxy Nexus. However on Nexus 10 when I connect a USB device to the OTG (or connect the OTG cable with a USB device already plugged in) the tablet turns off completly and I have to remove the OTG to be able to start it again.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] bschrib:
OK -- Sorry to resurrect a glue'd horse, but does anyone have a link for one that ALWAYS ships the correctly sized (read not too long) OTG adapter? I've already ordered two of the OTG adapters through Amazon but they BOTH have too long of a connector and it basically sits loose in any device. Very lame.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] philbrewer:
I'm looking for one as well. The cheap ones from eBay are too long. They work but the connection is loose. Do NOT buy the ones linked below.

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=300803544652
[Nexus 10 Accessories] psyclist:
I bought THIS one from monoprice for $1.43 last week its on its way...ill report back when it arrives. Monoprice stuff is usually pretty good quality, hoping it is nice and secure
[Nexus 10 Accessories] egrims:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008CQKM2U/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8

Has anyone tried this? Says it will work with the Nexus 7 so I'm assuming the 10 as well? Would be nice to have all in one.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] egrims:
Just an FYI I e-mailed Juiced Systems to see if this would work with the Nexus 10. Their response is below:

The adapter should work with 4 out of the 5 functions for the Nexus 10(MHL maybe not). I have yet to test it out personally. This is something we will test soon and will post online. The nexus 10 does have an HDMI mini port built into it already. If MHL doesn't work that is because google did not think it was necessary to make it MHL capable when it has an HDMI mini port. The Nexus 7 is not MHL capable either, not sure why they chose to do that. I will keep you posted once the nexus 10 testing comes back.

Thank you
[Nexus 10 Accessories] productofusa:
confirming this one works, and its a really great fit, nice and tight not like the loose too long one.thanks for the link.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] lexlucas:
Can you still access the headphone jack with this OTG cable?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] xeTaiz:
Can anyone tell me how an OTG cable can be better than another except of the price/length/design ??

Isn't that micro USB to USB cable just a normal cable connecting 5 pins which are either in a bigger or a smaller plug?

Why should such a cable not work (except of the situation that the cable is damaged)?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
I watched a video on how to make your own, if it was correct, they stated that one pin was unused and when it is connected to chassis ground tells the device to go into OTG mode.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] xeTaiz:
So this OTG cable is not just connecting each pin? It's not just an adapter?

Okay then, good to know, thank you :)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] productofusa:
If you took a razor knife to the strain relief part it would work, as it is you can stress it out of the way enough to fit a headphone jack but it puts a bit too much pressure on the USB port for my liking try it they're cheap!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] telcodave:
i see most are using ones with a cable, is there an issue with ones like these?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/90d-right-A...160919848094?ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:SG:3160

I got 2 of this, works pretty well and sits close to the side of the tablet.

Only 2 issues, the connector itself is long so it's a little loose and it will block the earphone jack.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] jerryp7:
I bought 2 of these through Amazon for .98 cents each - free shipping. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00871Q5PI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

It works on my tablet N10, my wife's Galaxy 2 10.1 and both of our Galaxy S3s. Can plug in a flash drive and watch a movie from the flash or transfer from and to it. I also can plug in a wireless mouse and can access and adjust my work computer that has my BMS (Building Management System) with Teamviewer.

The only "problem" was that it took about 3-4 weeks to come from China but what do you expect for a .98 cent item with free shipping from China. I had practically forgotten about it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
I have one of these coming from China, but it's angled the opposite way so it won't block the headphone jack. Saddens me to hear that your connector is too long, as it probably means mine will be as well.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
And it arrived today. Connector is indeed longer than it needs to be, but still fits reasonable securely. Pics:
[Nexus 10 Accessories] mark.m.moran:
Looks good, is it a tight fit??
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
I can wiggle it a little manually, but if Ieave it alone it's tight enough.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] freshlysqueezed:
Looks good with the case. If you lay the N10 flat without the case(naked), does the otg adapter hit the table and take on the weight of the tablet?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
Yes, it does take some of the weight, putting some stress on the connection. Certainly better to use it with a case.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
Here's a couple of pics with the card reader installed:
[Nexus 10 Accessories] musashiken:
Cool, do you have a link to order? I could only find my 90d right angled one on ebay, not your left angled cable.

I believe it doesn't block the earphone jack right? The shape and size looks exactly like the right angled one I have and if I switch mine around to compare, it seems to barely clear the jack.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/310509205806

It leaves plenty of room for the headphone jack. Even a fat headphone jack should fit with no problem. I can take a pic if you like.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EGBTMagus:
Just wondering if any roms would support the newly released Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 on T-Mobile? The specs are somewhat different from what I can see on gsmarena and samsungs website. The device has a Krait S4 in it rather then the TiOMAP in the other versions and also has a T-Mobile modem.
[HTC EVO 3D] Martaan:
I take absolutley no credits for this! It's a modified/rewritten version of Lexmazter's XL Multi Tool v1.8. I just rewrote it so that it works for EVO 3D

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for bricked devices.

Download:

http://www.multiupload.nl/S1Z8KS4YVD

Features:

Get the HTCdev code for bootloader unlock

Get/change your CID

Flash recovery

Feel free to suggest more features and I'll add them if possible

Root Guide using this tool:

1. Download and install HTC USB driver from here http://goo.gl/WzRNK

2. Enable USB debugging. Settings -> Development

3. Unlock your bootloader from the HTCdev site http://htcdev.com/. Follow every step! There's a shortcut to get the HTCdev code in Evo 3D Multi Tool

4. Enter hboot menu

You can get to hboot by pulling out the battery, then hold down lower volume button and the power button until hboot menu is up. Move around in hboot using the volume buttons and select the marked option by pressing the power button

5. Navigate to fastboot and press the power button

6. Open Evo 3D Multi Tool and choose Flash Recovery

7. Choose ClockworkMod or 4eXT. I recommend 4eXT because you won't need S-OFF to flash your boot partition. It has SmartFlash (More info here)

8. Download Super User and put the .zip file in the root of the SD card http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

9. Enter hboot menu

10. Select Recovery

10a. In 4eXT, select "install from sdcard" and navigate the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

10b. In ClockworkMod select "apply update from sdcard" and navigate the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

You are now rooted with an unlocked bootloader!

If you want to S-OFF then follow this guide: http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm

[HTC EVO 3D] Martaan:
I'm glad to hear that :) If someone wants me to and if I get time I'll make it work for Linux and Mac too
[HTC EVO 3D] gargdada:
Works Great.. Used it to Install 4EXT :)
[HTC EVO 3D] gargdada:
This is one of the greatest tool ever.. you can pimp up the tool.. and this should be made sticky.. if a way to get unlock,bin be found without registering to htcdev.. this would be 1 click unlocking and rooting tool. :)

havent checked this myself but http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1343114 seems to have a similar tool..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donec:
Like the title says "Can the Note 2 be used without a sim card?" if so what functions are available? Like handwritten notes, wifi, bluetooth and android apps?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paradaz:
You can do anything you want as if it was a tablet/computer.....only you cant make calls.

As long as you log into your google account you can access the 'Play' store, your Samsung account (if you have one) will enable that cloud functionality etc

All the apps will work fine unless there is a requirement on the phone functionality. I used my Note 2 for a couple of days like this as my old number was getting ported.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whmcal:
Yes... and you can make at least 'some' calls without a sim card. All you need is wifi. If your friends also have a google account, you can call them for free using the "talk" app... as long as they are connected to the net of course. Still use my simless Note 1 in this way.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donec:
I ask because some smart phones will not work if they do not have some kind of carrier service.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phillip T. Craig:
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Sim cards

Okay. I understand the theory of a sim card, But can a person owning this phone

have only (1) sim card in and still be able to make calls> or does it require (2) sim cards?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donec:
I don't understand your question. I have one sim card (t-mobile) and I make calls using the sim card or I can make calls using wifi and the app talkatone. I can change the sim card for another carrier like Lycamobile and make calls using that service.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00464:
if u have a wifi sim card is not needed.....use fb, G+,twitter to talk to friends.....
[Nexus 7 General] papayayoghurt:
Hello

Now I unzipped the package of the 4.2 Factory Image and I noticed that there is the bootloader version 4.13.

Does anybody know why there is the big difference (3.41 and 4.13)

And also what´s changed.

I have installed the update using ota and i still have the new bootloader, and it´s also working. Why?

Let´s brainstorm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DocJ8403:
I've searched up & down the forums but haven't found any luck in regards to my problem. Long story short, my Camera front, back & LED light has completely stopped working. The camera app force closes as soon as I open the app. I've tried all the conventional remedies from resetting to default, flashing different Roms, different batteries, clearing the data from the gallery/camera app.. Everything! I have a feeling the camera may be fine, but something may have become disconnected somehow, because its obviously not getting power.

I can't seem to find a relatively easy teardown of the Nexus in order to replace it or at least get a look inside. This brings me to my question: Has anyone ever experienced a dead camera? Is it simple to replace? Is the front & back camera a one piece module? This has been lurking me for so long and this forum is my last resort before I toss it out the window. As crappy as the camera is, I need it for Google hangouts for conferencing for work. Help!

I almost forgot, has anyone had any experiences with sending their device to be fixed by Samsung? That's my true true last resort, but I'm a little hesitant.. I had a bad experience before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wingdom:
So here is a teardown by ifixit. I have disassembled my Galaxy Nexus to replace the screen, and it is a bit of a pain to get into. If you are feeling brave, it is doable, but it certainly shouldnt be the first phone to tear into.

Linky to teardown
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DocJ8403:
Thanks for the reply.. Now check this out, I just installed an alternative camera app (LGcamera) from the play store & it worked well for the most part, however it won't detect a front camera. I also noticed I have to ready phone after 40 minutes to get the camera app working again.

This is sooo odd. Like I mentioned before, whenever I open the original camera app, all I get is a force close - So maybe it is a software problem? Can you recommend any special way of re-installing gallery/camera app or someway to tweak the software to see if that's the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wingdom:
The easiest thing I would say to narrow down the problem is (if you have cwm installed) make a nandroid backup, wipe everything, and install a different rom than the one you are using. Then you can have a completely fresh start, unrelated to any of your current software, and test the camera then. If it works, it was a software problem, if it doesn't work, it is most likely hardware.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Nganbee:
Recently having another 2 problems with the opt g kor ver:

1. Maximum characters in a sms are 80, and cannot (or i havent figured it out) switch to multiple sms instead of changing it to mms. I had to break down my text into many parts for it to be able to send.

2. When i tried to use my finger to press the right part of the back, it seems loose and cause a cracking noise, as if like an empty shell with nothing underneath. I dont know what happened or it was like that since the beginning but i didnt notice.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] vurp0:
Sometimes while using my tablet, the screen suddenly "shifts" out of place: http://imgur.com/a/94hr8 Sometimes it also gets "corrupted": http://imgur.com/yErJp.jpg The tablet works normally when this happens, and it responds to touch at the correct position(i.e. touch doesn't change). It doesn't show up on screenshots. I haven't noticed it being "linked" to anything specific, and it's always done it. Turning the screen off and on again returns it to normal. Why does this happen? Is it solveable? I've tried googling around but nothing.

Thank you.

(I posted this same post to Reddit too)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] vurp0:
Bump?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] chriscsh:
maybe you can post more details on your device

which rom? which cwm.....
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] vurp0:
It is completely stock 3.2, only rooted with a zip I flashed from stock recovery. I'm pretty sure it did that before rooting, though.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] jd1639:
It sounds hardware related and nothing you'll be able to resolve. Are you still under warranty? If you are I'd take it in.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] vurp0:
That's what I've been thinking. Thank you anyway.
[General Questions and Answers] question_air:
EDIT:: Sorry for the misleading title, I just used ARMV7 to separate phones which would be useless to me, as they are generally unsupported by many applications, although ARMV7 is not a specific requirement to me.

EDIT2:: The price range has been updated to £150 max.

Hi I'm new to the forums, but I wanted to know if you guys could help me out.

I'm looking to purchase a decent device (at least 1ghz processor, decent RAM, preferably at least 4inch screen) for under £130.

It can be in used condition, this frees up the criteria also.

So far I've checked out the Nexus S (£120-150 used) the Galaxy S (£90-110) and the Desire HD (£100-120), but I'm having trouble finding out which is the best choice.

The phone should also have an active community so I can install the latest CM or stable ROM, and be viably supported in future. Also I would like to know which phones are the most easy to port to, modify, etc. Along with any other important aspects I should take into consideration.

Looking for suggestions, please!

TL;DR: Need good device for under £130 used, active community, long-term, other important factors.

Thank you very much!

Hello,

I am stuck in a student room where the internet come by cable and with a fully working connection on my computer (Ubuntu)

As I have no data plan , I was wondering if some custom 4.2 ROM would support had-hoc.

Can you please ping here if you are aware of such ROM? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deepayanneogi:
None I have ever seen , only infrustucture mode support Google
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Waza_Be:
Infrastructure is not supported by my computer, according to this post: http://askubuntu.com/questions/106745/how-to-find-out-if-my-card-supports-infrastructure-mode

SO I cannot create infrastructure network.

I can create ad hoc network, but so, Android won't recognise it.

I have also tried bluetooth connection sharing, but seems impossible, so I will maybe go back to previous release of CM that support ad hoc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SGSIIIUser:
My phone reboots randomly after updating to JB. It would just sits on the table and vibrates then the Galaxy S III screen will popup and reboot. It has happened twice so far. It's not so much of a problem if I wasn't using the phone since the phone boots up pretty quickly, but I don't want the phone to reboot while I'm in a middle of something.

Strange. Usually random reboots are the result of a kernel panic which would leave logs there. Without logs to see what's happening it's hard to troubleshoot.
