[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ElAguila:
My sister is trying to send me a picture and it shows for just a second and then disappears. Then I get a message saying from hidden sender and it says the file not found on server. It will notify me of this message repeatedly. Never had this happen. Any ideas what is causing it? Here is soem more info. I was using ChompSMS as my messenger app. I did some looking on google and I deleted all of the messages and then turned off the auto retreive of mms in chompsms. The problem still occurred. I uninstalled chomp and started using the stock app only and I am still having issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ElAguila:
Well i got up this morning and it was doing the same thing again. I uninstalled chomp sms and am currently using the stock app only. It still happens intermittently with the stock app. Is it possible for this to be a server issue?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
Im coming from the Galaxy Nexus.. The phone is great but the battery and signal sucks. Is it true what we hear about the GREAT signal and the killer battery the Maxx has? If im lucky I can get about 2 hours of tapatalk. Signal sucks big time, no sense on talking about that haha. Also I dont know about the development here, but what all can we do? Unlocked bootloader? Any help on the Development and what all we can do is appreciated. Also, on how the battery and signal is... Can you guys stretch the battery out even more with the development you guys have?

Thanks!

BTW, my only switch to the MAxx is for battery and signal. Not so much the development.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hansip87:
Hi there,

I am a first time user too with the razr maxx, in fact it's only since 2 days ago :)

If you compare the likes of galaxy nexus to the maxx, first thing that will irritate you a bit is the resolution, i myself consider it as a step back from my previous phone, xperia ray. Will be even more painful if you migrate from the nexus lol, but once you forget about it, it's essentially as capable device as a nexus, faster a bit maybe due to decreased resolution and more available ram due to less ram assigned for display but JB non existence hinders it a bit. But i won't consider the JB is a must, because the ICS one is quite zippy too.

The battery is, if i might illustrate it, is a hard to kill but still killable. It depends on your usage pattern. I mean, don't expect a miracle of 2 or 3 online days, but imagine a double battery kit on a single charge, so you will get around twice the time you usually had with the standard Android phone.

About the ROM mods, I'm not sure about that, but the possibilities are there despites the locked bootloader. The ROM slots are available for 2 ROMs when the Boot Menu Manager is installed, so you can tinker with it. The overclock can be done with a module, no custom kernel needed for that so it's quite a flexible device in my POV, because the battery alone is worth it IMO.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
yeah Im chasing battery. I dont the Resolution can be THAT bad.. My wife has the first razr. Im guessing, if I can deal/like that then Id be good to go. ANd yeah as far as battery Im after just a longer battery life. I dont want days just more than 2 hours, if that...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hansip87:
Yep, if you're all about battery life then as they said, there's no any other that can match for a while. But if you're still digging for future proof specs, I'll say wait for the maxx hd. :) but the same ram size yet the hd resolution (less ram for apps), and the snapdragon soc (which although fast, seems a little bit choppy and not a true a15 class of ARM) makes me think twice so i took the standard maxx rather than waiting for the hd. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
Yeah im getting a pretty much brand new xt912 for 250.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
anyone else?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cmraymond:
I love the maxx, get it you won't regret it. I haven't been this satisfied with any android phone as I have this one and I've owned 6 different smartphones before I got the maxx. When I am finally due for an upgrade in November 2013, I may go with something like the Note 2 only for the screen size and quad core. But this perfectly fits me now.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
From what Ive read the Note has killer battery too.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hansip87:
Yep, but battery/screen size ratio is better on the razr so that depends on you. if you're ok with the phablet size then it's your call :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] PipeHitter:
Also came from a Gnex. While I loved the unlocked freedom the device gave me, I had similar complaints over signal and battery life. I learned to work around battery life by having multiple chargers around all the time, but I finally had enough of poor signal and voice call quality. Note: I do believe a large portion of the poor battery performance is due to the radios constantly trying to find a source. Friends that have the Gnex and live closer to towers seem to get better battery life.

Purchased MAXX and I couldn't be happier. Battery life is AWESOME for me. I use the phone however I want, Pandora, GPS, YouTube, wifi hotspot, etc and usually still have 40-50% at the end of day. Signal and voice quality is night and day difference. I now get LTE everywhere as before I used to struggle just to get 3g in the same areas.

I've decided to keep the Gnex as a backup device, and for if I get the urge to ROM or tinker. Who knows, maybe one day Samsung or whoever will finally release some decent radio flashes that will fix it.

Don't plan on ROMing so can't help you there, but there are a few available in the razr dev forum. Root was a breeze, and I find the stock Moto ICS experience fine even coming from JB.

Other than ease of an unlocked bootloader with the Gnex, about the only thing I miss is the slightly larger screen. But I get over that pretty quick with the MAXX's overall performance.

Hope that helps!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mroneeyedboh:
yeh I think Ill be in the same position as you. Id give up that stuff for better signal and better battery. Bar none. And Im just going to let my Gnex go, When I upgrade next year this time Im sure the S4 will be out. Hopefully that will be a star device.

Just turned in a Galaxy S3 for poor reception and poor battery, back to my MAXX. Has probably tainted me against Samsung phones for ages!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miike.mm:
Hi! I saw that many non-tegra devices can run some games with tegra 3 graphics enabled without any problem, like Dead Trigger, if you search on youtube you'll see, just changing a thing on some txt archive inside the data folder of the game, in the Razr i it works okay too, but these tutorials i've seen is for Dead Trigger, i want to know if there's a way to enable tegra graphics of the tegra games too like Horn in our non-tegra razr i, whithout using chainfire3d cause it don't works okay in ICS, maybe changing some value of the txt files on the data folder of the game, cause chainfire don't works okay in ICS.

Hope you all understand me cause i don't speak english very well so i'm sorry for any mistake =)

Thanks =)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddiehl:
I own an 06 Jetta GLI with the Premium 7 radio. I'm currently using a Dension Gateway iPod adapter which displays track/browsing info on the MFI in the gauge cluster. Full browsing is accomplished via the steering wheel controls. It's very nice, and seamless. Here's a link to a video of it in action for reference purposes

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr-Q7ybcKKM:

While searching around for something similar for Android devices, I happened upon an adapter from Grom Audio. They claim it displays track/browsing info as well as plays music over bluetooth. Has anyone tried or heard about these?

Here'a a link to the Grom Audio unit.

http://gromaudio.com/store/usb_adapters/index.html

My main requirement is keeping the steering wheel controls, and existing head unit..

I have no affiliation with either of these companies.. Just trying to gather some info.

Thanks..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] altitude909:
nothing new really, my 5 year old alpine just plugs into my phone via usb and finds the mp3s.. the newer units do it over bluetooth via an app, id be surprised if the modern oem radios didn't at least have usb connectivity
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jeffdaman:
That's pretty neat. I have a 2013 Elantra and I can only stream the music at the radio. A readout of the artist, song name, etc, and the ability to fast forward with my wheel mounted controls would be nice.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] troycarpenter:
Wow. That does look nice. I need to read more, but I do see my vehicle on the supported list. Kind of expensive, but if it works like it says, I might actually give it a shot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bruch:
Hey ddiehl,

I had a similar "issue" with my car.

I have an Ipod connector that I can control from the steering wheel.

So instead of using the ipod connector for an actual Ipod, I bought this bluetooth adapter:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ML-D100-Blu...513090?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4abaea8b02

Bluetooth ML-D100 => It cost from $30 to $45

I connected to the the ipod interface and connected my phone to the bluetooth.

I works very well in my case, but i don't have the same car.

I have an IS-250 with FlyAudio 2 Stereo System.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mattsternc:
Wow!

That's pretty cool actually. I was searching for something like that a few months back, but only came across this:

http://www.gtacarkits.com/

Works great for my iPod Video, but just has a line input for anything else. Kind of makes me want to sell that and get this, especially if I can integrate the iPod AND my S3 and control both with my steering wheel controls!! :laugh:

I would be curious to know the sound quality of this adapter, using either the bluetooth, line-in and/or iPod connectivity options. I know there were a lot of debates on the Mazda 3 forum between the various adapters and the GTA Car Kit was the best of the lot in all of my reading. Granted, we could assume that since it plugs straight into the back of the headunit, it should be great but I am still skeptical.

Anyone willing to be the guinea pig, get one and report back?? :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfc70:
My 2011 accord has usb, and but will only support Apple devices. My gs3 shows up as "unsupported". I also have a 3.5mm jack, but then I can't use the radio or steering wheel controls. This generation of Accords never had bluetooth audio, only voice.

I have tried bluetooth audio converters, and but they seem laggy and slow. The two (one was a blackberry, and can't remember the other) I tried, I returned.

I can load music to an usb stick, but there are no folders, just the song titles. This is annoying as my old iphone would let me sort by song, artist, album or play list. I drive a lot, and this is becoming very annoying. So much that I'm actually tempted to go buy the biggest gb ipod I can get, just to have easy accessibility to my digital library in my car.

So if someone has a solution that costs less than an ipod, and does not require me taking the dash apart, I'm all ears!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jnovello:
My Pioneer unit has a usb that was made specifically for ipod. When you plug it in it says unsupported, but still allows me to play the songs from my GS3. It also has Bluetooth though so its not really an issue for me.

I ended up buying a Parrot MKI9200. Bluetooth telephony and music streaming. It says it is made for iphone but works better with my S3 than it did with my old iphone 4.

Oh my I think i screwed my phone up :eek:

I tried flashing ZenSeries 6.42 kernal (wipe cache and davlik) and everything seemed fine. Went to boot up and i get passed the splash screen, but the phones stays stuck on with the google nexus logo and never boots to my lock screen. I tried taking out the battery and going into recovery but it's a no go. I press volume down and power and i go into "odin mode" and it's telling me it's "downloading" then if I hit the power button it takes me back to boot loop. I've been away from the scene due to new marriage, school and work so I'm not sure if i lost touch and forgot how to use my phone like a hacker should :( anyone know how i can fix this?

[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
Firstly I'd just like to state I'm not trying to gain sympathy or anything of the sort, just sharing an experience and to gain feedback on what you would do in my position (I appreciate this post may be long so appreciate the patience).

Just like many of you I sat at home and eagerly awaited the launch, as soon as it happened, I tried a million times, like yourselves to get it into the basket and checkout to no avail. Then with some twist of fate I managed to cart it and inputted my details and sent off the payment. The order went through but then said that my bank had declined the payment. Called the bank, thought it was fraudulent, they cleared it within minutes if not seconds, in the Google wallet transaction screen it said I had 7 days to update otherwise my order would be cancelled so I thought I was safe.

I received 2 emails, instantaneously of one another, one stating "You've made a purchase on Google Play. You will not be charged until your order has been shipped." The other stating "Your purchase from Google Play has been cancelled. Any charges made will be refunded."

I repeat these emails were sent at the EXACT same time. So I called up Google to be on the safe side after updating my card details and this is where it starts to get fuzzy. They stated that the order had been cancelled and there was nothing they could do. I asked to speak to a manager after taking down the persons name (who in fairness was trying to be helpful), so I spoke to his manager "Deon", Deon proceeded to tell me the exact same, that there was nothing they could do other than recommend placing another order for one, even though they had all sold out by this time. Deon told me that he would get back to me after he spoke to his supervisor who wasn't at the office for another 5 hours. I agreed to wait for his email, but I asked for his surname because I have no idea how many Deons there are working there...When I asked he stuttered and repeated my question back to me....I confirmed that I wanted his surname to which he said "Ok sir, one moment" and after a few seconds the line went dead.

When I go on to the google system to find out where my order is, it says

"Orders are shipped within two business days of placing your order, and will be delivered upon two additional business days of processing.

According to our records, your order should ship by the evening of 15-11-2012."

Which just adds further to the frustration and confusion. I spoke to another gentlemen on the phone after spending roughly £8.40 in phone calls to them from my mobile phone, who said he'd escalate this matter further.

I noted that Google are regulated by the Financial Services Authority and whether it would be worth going to the Financial Ombudsman, however I'd have to wait 8 weeks for them to attempt to resolve it before i can do that.

Any feedback would be great, and if you made it this far and read it all I greatly appreciate your time. If you just skipped here, the jist of what I'm saying is, google have screwed me royally, what would you do?
[Nexus 10 General] drcujo:
I think you just need to wait for Google to get it together in your case. There has been a lot of confusion with order statuses. I guess you will know for sure when Google gets back to you, or when you receive your tablet.
[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
Thanks for your reply drcujo, it is just weird that others had the same problem and didn't have their orders cancelled.

Well if I recieve a tablet tomorrow I'd be extremely surprised considerin I've not recieved any email stating any tracking information or anything remotely of the sort. I can keep my fingers crossed eh?
[Nexus 10 General] Harfainx:
After about 35 minutes of trying to order my N10 (right when they got released, with a million errors), it finally allowed me to complete the purchase.

I was getting worried because of how long it took to get a confirmation email from Google, but it finally showed up 38 minutes after the purchase. My bank account has already been charged, and a quick phone call with Google (Google Wallet) has assured me that my purchase will not be cancelled and my tablet will ship out Thursday November 15th with 2-day Saturday delivery. I'm not sure who he talked to, but I was on hold for like 2-3 minutes while he looked up the info for me.

I seem to have been one of the lucky ones though, even with all the errors and delays in emails. I have heard MANY complaints of people receiving cancellation emails, or getting errors telling them that they were already sold out.

You can call the Google Wallet team at 1-855-492-5538 (in the US). They can answer your questions quickly.

Use option 4 to get a person on the phone.
[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
Hey Harfainx, I live in the UK and it would cost me a fortune (maybe a nexus 10 worth, ha!) just to call them on that number. I called them and they confirmed it was cancelled. I'm extremely disappointed as I needed this for multiple projects at university and had an oppurtunity to duplicate my order but put my faith in google, last mistake I will be making with them. I would hate to have to give my money to apple, I'm anti apple tbh.

Thanks for your reply though!
[Nexus 10 General] dtwazere:
Hey Araam,

I was one of the lucky ones and my order went through, I ended up with a duplicate order for my n10 and my card was declined like yours. It seems weird that they would cancel your order so quickly though? I didn't realise for at least an hour after I had placed my order and they never cancelled mine.

I was able to cancel the duplicate order this morning though, so I do hope you are successful in getting one, there must be others who were able to cancel theirs too!
[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
Yeh thats what gets me, why did they cancel it so fast :/ I really hope someone has a spare one that I can buy for a not so extortionate price. Its starting to approach a time where I may need to buy an iPad which I'd hate to do. As flawed as apple are, their customer service, from my past experience, is much, much better than what I've experienced with Google thus far. I hope I'm wrong and they sort all this out, however I have recieved an email from Google Wallet which reads -

Such a disappointment.
[Nexus 10 General] dtwazere:
What I don't understand is why they cancelled it so quickly. They don't charge your card until it's shipped, I know they must put some kind of a charge on the card but they don't actually take payment until they send it right?

I reckon after the weekend when everyone who managed to get one, they'll have a better idea of how many they have left in stock so you might be able to grab one then. I have no idea if they're going on ebay yet..
[Nexus 10 General] DanP47:
The same thing happened to me the first time I tried to order, card was declined, received automated phone call from bank and then I cleared the transaction. I also received the 2 emails about the 7 days and the cancellation at the same time. I checked Google Wallet which said my order was cancelled and that the money would not be debited, so I placed another order as it was still in stock luckily.
[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
I wish I would have re-ordered when it was still in stock. Such a let down, I can't really describe how annoyed I am with Google right now.
[Nexus 10 General] ComputerGeek:
Google Play Store Can Be Horrible

My experience with the Google Play Store had been horrible. I bought a Nexus 7 and they sent me a defective one. The tablet they sent me to exchange the defective unit was also defective, so I requested for a refund. It took 20 calls from me to Google to get my money back about 5 weeks after I shipped them the device back. Yes, 5 weeks. They provide the worse service in the industry. It feels like they have to escalate everything to get anything done and are the best excuse makers. They really need to learn how to run a store.
[Nexus 10 General] Araam Abdal:
Thanks for your reply ComputerGeek, its service like that, that makes me feel like that I will need to refer them to the FSA regulators through the financial ombudsman service as their google wallet service is regulated by them. Unfortunately the downfall is that you have to wait 8 weeks in total for them to resolve your problem before you can report the problem.
