[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] nutnub:
Hi all, don't know if this is a question or just a statement, leaning towards the latter:

Has anyone noticed that this device may come with a reader built in? I saw that you could launch with Adobe Reader, but when clicking around in Dropbox, suddenly I was able to use the QuickOffice Pro HD app to view things. I understand why this device would need this app, but when looking in Google Play, it doesn't seem to show up as purchased (and it's kind of confirmed in device with the fact that you cannot launch the app independently).

Another thought: I've only tested with PDFs launched from dropbox, that may be the reason. Maybe this is another reason to use dropbox? Unsure, but very curious feature, may affect how people would treat device (especially since I cannot zoom in and out of standard Adobe Reader, which is driving me nuts).

Back to studying for midterm in 8 hours, any thoughts? :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] hefferman:
I also noticed this when using Google drive. I opened a .doc file and it used quick office to display the file (in read only mode). As you, I don't have quick office installed.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] creektrails:
Not that this helps much but I just opened a file n dropbox and they gave me the choice of what program to use and quick office was on the list and it worked great. I didn't download it either.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] legendary1022:
Google bought QuickOffice and probably working to implement it fully into the Android maybe. That is interesting it doesn't show up anywhere else. I love using Quick office HD in my Infinity and is my go to productivity software.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] tcrews:
QuckOffice was acquired by Google a while back....

http://www.quickoffice.com/google_acquires_quickoffice/

So it may be a part of the OS install, it doesn't show in the app drawer but it shows under apps/all in the system menu.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] Brac20:
This is great news. Work is buying me an N10 so I will need something that can edit Office documents. I was considering buying Quickoffice.
[Nexus 10 Themes and Apps] yumcax:
I noticed this when I tried to backup QuickOffice Pro in Titanium Backup.

The speedtest app produces numbers over 5Mb

Tethering speedtest.net only produces about 2.2Mb

&

DSLR http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest?flash=1

will only produce about 1-1.5 Mb.

The crazy thing is that DSLR used to produce 3-5mb. Tethering I can put my phone in an optimal signal position so the numbers should be better.

Does anybody know why I am suddenly getting bad numbers while tethering? What are the real numbers or best way to measure bandwidth?

I am having issues getting Google Wallet set up on my Nexus 10. I just received it today, and it sits on the "Setting up Wallet, this may take up to 5 minutes" screen for what seems like forever, then I get a message "Device Not Ready-Wallet is unable to proceed until this device is fully initialized. Make sure the phone has network access and try rebooting it if the problem persists", well the network is 100% A OK, and the device is fully initialized, so I'm not sure what the issue is, and I have rebooted it a few times and even cleared data and cache on the Wallet program, to no avail. Is anybody else having this issue?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjdevega:
If your under a custom rom, that could be the reason why its not working. I have Google wallet on my rooted stock SG3 and it says unsupported device but it still works.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:
It's the stock ROM, just rooted, unlocked bootloader and recovery.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:
It still won't set up as of this morning, it's not a hardware problem because the NFC works just fine, I guess I'll have to talk to Google.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:
Well, I fixed it! I went into Titanium and uninstalled it, installed the version in the Play Store, and then opened it up and WHAM, it worked! Maybe the one on the device was corrupt, or uninstalling then re installing cleared out some errors, what do you guys think?

Edit-I don't know that I'll use it on my Nexus 10, as I have it installed and working on my SGS3 (AT&T), but it's nice to have the option, and it was bugging me not being able to get it working :D lol
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjdevega:
Glad you figured it out! Sometimes its as simple as uninstalling then reinstalling go figure.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpat258:
Would you guys know a way around this without having the phone rooted?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cloney:
Just wondering... Why do you want Google Wallet on your N10? Do you have the 3g version and carry it around all day?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
Coolness factor :cool:

In any case, my wallet seems to be stuck also on "Setting up Wallet". I've tried CM10.1, some other custom ROM, and stock, and tried a few different wallet apps on CM10.1, to no avail so far.

Edit: My NFC still appears to work; I can wave my credit card near the NFC sensor on the N10, and it'll make a sound.

Try uninstalling wallet with titanium backup and reinstall from the play store. Worked for me today on my rooted sprint galaxy nexus.

Tried your suggestion and it let me sign in and setup a PIN. However, it errors out when trying to add cards. It also says that I'm using an unsupported device (Nexus 4).
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delaneyd:
I'm having the same issue. I've tried everything short of editing the build prop as some have done in the past with other devices (I have a nexus 4), and probably would even do that if some other person with an N4 did it and had success. Tried multiple ROMs and multiple versions of Wallet with no luck. I either get the "Setting up wait 5 minutes, device not initalized" issue or the "request failed" at the add card error. Put in for a replacement yesterday, so hopefully the new one doesn't have the issue. If so, then we know that there are just some lemon N4's out there.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SplicedX:
first, I got this wallet apk from the dev paulobrien here at xda. I don't have the link to his site at the moment. now, onto the fun stuff. to begin with, uninstall any previous wallet app. next, using root explorer drop this apk into the /system/app directory and change the permissions to match the other apps. now, reboot and enjoy the odd looks of cashiers when you pay with your awesome tablet! :D

I found the link for anyone who is wary.

I know this is prob not the right spot to ask for this but my bros. Camrea will not work on his shift it is stock and unrooted he wont let me root it. If you go to his camera app it just give you a black screen i installed a diff camera app same result any suggestions?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Well since he's not rooted, you can try a Factory Reset. Just in case it's an App he installed that is causing an issue. Only thing I would try after that is an RUU. But if he's Factory Stock Un-Rooted, why doesn't he just take it in to Sprint ?

EDIT: There is one last thing you can try. It may sound strange. Push on the Camera's Silver Ring gently, but firmly. I've heard of the Camera coming loose if the Device has been dropped. Then check it, see if it works.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjSHIFTy:
thanks for the info will give it a shot he wont take it to sprint because we live about 2hrs. away from the nearest sprint store.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
He should call them, and let them know the issue. Let them know that going into the store is an issue because of distance. He may be able to get them to send him another Device. It's worth a try.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
My phone currently will turn on but as soon as it starts booting, the screen goes blank. I flashed android to it shortly before this happened and installing any other ROM has no success. It gives me a connection error every time I try to do so. I can not get into the recovery either, and only can access the bootloader. Flashing from an SD card is not working either, it sits on a "Loading..." screen. I am not sure if the problem is drivers or if the phone is bricked. I can not do a Task 29 because I can't get into the OS whatsoever.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
Try doing the task 29 from the sd card. Just extract the RUU_signed.nbh file using 7zip, and rename it.

Or try doing the same thing with the stock rom.

If you are trying to flash a custom rom to a locked phone then it will just sit at the loading screen. Get stock working first, re-unlock, then flash a compatible rom.

As long as you can get to the tri colored screen there is a chance to recover it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
I think you can only task29 from USB, but regardless if you can get to the bootloader screen, then you should be able to task29...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Hakim Rahman:
I agree with you, task 29 can only be done via a USB connection and the device is in bootloader mode
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
This didn't work either...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
Error 262 after tying another task 29.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
Careful. That is so much info for us to take in.

Details man. Details. What specifically didn't work? What errors did you get?

Have you tried other usb cables, other usb ports, other computers?

Is the phone in tri-color mode when you try to flash vie usb?

Have you tried loading stock from the sd card?

Is your sd card formatted to fat32? Is it less than 4gb in size?

Is your battery charged fully?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
I do not have any other computers to try, but a multitide of ports I do. Don't know where the battery is at because I can only boot into the tri-color screen. Yes, the microSD card is less than 4gb in size. I do not know how to get a stock rom for such an old phone, as the thread wiuth all the ROMs confuses me. Yes, it is formatted to fat32
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
Glad to hear it. Did you try any of the others?

Did you try any other cables? 262 Error is frequently a usb cable or port issue. It is the error usualy seen when there is no usb communication. Can be a bad port on the phone too.

Did you charge it before you started flashing? Can you make an educated guess. If it is very low flashing can fail.

Does not matter until you try flashing from the sd card.

Please try all suggestions, and report back if they do not work along with what happened.

Google is your friend.

Very first link, direct from the manufacturer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
Tried 2 different cables, error 262

Tried different ports, error 262

Thanks for the link...it seem my google-fu has caused me to overcomplicate a simple search for a stock ROM.

I charged it overnight but the orange light just stayed on, so I assume full or almost there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
Well let us know if flashing vie SD card works out for you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
I am currently trying this, and it's on a white screen with "Loading..." which I have seen many a time. Does it normally take a while to do the loading for the ROM? And I did rename it to RHODIMG.nbh just to make sure...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
Still no luck...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
It takes a few seconds, IIRC around 10... I'd say if it's been 60 seconds, there's something wrong for sure.

Have you tried different SD cards? Maybe even a small, non-SDHC card?

Not sure if it's been mentioned... but have you done a full FAT32 format with the HP tool? Not the built-in Windows or WinMo format utilities...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
So I've been using the wrong format tool I.E. Windows built in format tool, sorry for not mentioning that. Also, I have tried three different SD cards and none of them were SDHC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Please try a full FAT32 format of your smallest card using the tool I linked........
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
I did, and it still is stuck on that "Loading" screen...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
This is with multiple RHODIMG.nbh files...? Like, you've tried with several ROM's/SD cards...?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
You know, sometimes when you think you've thought of everything, someone has a good idea...now I feel dumb. Trying your multiple SD Card idea. Multiple ROMs I have tried though with one card, so hopefully the other will work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
So, still no luck but a new question. Should the phone, when using an SD card give me the option to update or automatically go into the update? Because it does it automatically but if I remember correctly, it would ask to confirm the update before.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
No. You have to boot it into the tri color screen. Then if the sd card is working, compatible, and holding a rom the phone should try to install it.

This is what the phone is doing now, starts booting then shuts off the screen and it never comes back on. I can not remember the button combo to get into recovery either, as that's what I think will help. The recovery I flashed is either from the omgb ROM or GBX.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
Plug in a usb cable, and press and hold the power button to get into fastboot. From there you can launch recovery vie fastboot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hawke213x:
Ummm...that isn't working either...unless I am doing it wrong? So, plug the usb cable into the computer, then the phone, then hold down the power button?

I have a Nook Simple Touch running 1.1.2 & rooted.

What is the best way to block OTA update to v1.2 (which just got posted by BN on their website)?
[Nook Touch General] roustabout:
Install the overclock kernel seems to work out just fine. The updates are picky about the boot environment, and redoing the kernel has made my device unwilling to update, even after dropping in the update file - I'm actually curious to see what it looks like, and am even now setting up an environment to image my current config before trying a run at doing the upgrade manually and preserving root.
[Nook Touch General] jeff_kz:
adb pull /data/data/com.bn.devicemanager/databases/devicemanager.db devicemanager.db
sqlite3 devicemanager.db "update registry set value='manual' where name='com.bn.device.fota.mode';"
adb push devicemanager.db /data/data/com.bn.devicemanager/databases/devicemanager.db

sqlite3 binary available here.

How do you preserve root in the upgrade process? With some kind of tool similar to OTA RootKeeper?

Update 1.1.2 and 1.2 differences

I used cygwin to unzip both the 1.1.2 and 1.2 updates. I then used cygwin's `diff -q` command to see what files changed between the two updates.

Here is the list.

Files nook_1_1_2_update/booting.pgm and nook_1_2_update/booting.pgm differ

Files nook_1_1_2_update/bq275020.ver and nook_1_2_update/bq275020.ver differ

[Nook Touch General] digixmax:
Can you elaborate on the sort of differences between new vs. old versions of the programs on this list, which you deem not worth the upgrade?
[Nook Touch General] David0226:
Here is my take.

The *.pgm files are just pictures, no functional improvement there.

The kernel gets updated, but I am using the overclocking kernel so I don't see any improvement for me.

The other updates appear to me to be updates to some other functions I don't use.

NOTE: Readers over at The-Ebook-Reader.com are indicating improved dictionary functionality which MIGHT be worth the upgrade.

NOTE2: They are also reporting that they have been unable to re-root once they have applied the update.

I guess each user needs to make his or her own decision on this one. IF I could apply the update without having to re-root, I would definitely try it based on the reported improvements for the dictionary.

These are my OPINIONS, your mileage may vary....

If anybody knows which of these changes my effect the dictionary, I would like to attempt to apply that change manually.

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

I have an NST rooted using tinynoot. It is running ReLaunch 1.3.8 as its launcher and I had installed the latest version of the overclocking kernel.

After reading of the improved dictionary functionality on The-Ebook-Reader.com, I decided to attempt to manually update my Nook.

I downloaded the update and placed it in the root of my device and rebooted (using the reboot button in ReLauncher).

The update successfully installed and I was shocked to see the device boot up into ReLauncher instead of Nook home.

I tried the stock reader and looked up a word, the new dictionary is an order of magnitude better than the previous one.

However, I do seem to have lost root and the overclocking kernel was of course overwritten.

I am going to proceed to attempt to re-root with tinynoot. If this is successful, I will reinstall the overclocking kernel and report my results.
[Nook Touch General] jeff_kz:
You need to run diff -r -q to recursively compare the subdirectories. That's where all the fun stuff is you'll see that there are differences in almost all of the system binaries between 1.1.2 and 1.2.0.
[Nook Touch General] David0226:
Jeff,

Thanks for the tip. I am more used to UNIX than cygwin. :o

So I was able to get root back using tinynoot and install the overclocking kernel.

I still have some issues with ADB. I used to connect to a root shell automatically but not I connect with a standard user shell and have to su.

BTW: The new dictionary functionality looks very much like Renate's dictionary and does include the ability to type in a word to look up. It's window title is even Look Up, but perhaps that has always been its title, I can't remember.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sssputnik:
I have googled a ton, but cannot see how to bypass Motoblur setup on the Defy+

Other Motorolas can be bypassed using Alt-E Alt-E NOBLUR but the Defy+ has no Alt key.

I don't want to root / apply custom mod as these are company phones shared amongst staff.

Chose the Defy+ as they have better antenna and are water/dust resistant. (These phones are going to Aussie outback).

If anyone has instructions or a work around, be much appreciated.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neiljain:
Hi Buddy,

The easiest way to "bypass" the Motoblur setup is to prevent it from connecting to the net.

To do this, have an non-activated SIM card, so the device cannot connect to server via 3G.

Then, it is simply the matter of selecting "No Data Plan" and skipping through the steps.

However, this will NOT increase performance significantly, if you are trying to maintain the stock firmware.

Australian Telstra Defy+ Motoblur setups are easily avoidable, if you follow the steps above.

Good Luck,

neiljain
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sssputnik:
Makes sense... Never thought to try that.

Main reason I want it bypassed is that these handsets will be shared amongst a pool of users, so Motoblur makes no sense. (And would be a pain to administer).

However tried this - I just said no data plan, but now it's prompting me for a WiFi connection and I can't proceed. (Can't hit Next without selecting "Setup WiFi" If I select it, I cant proceed without joining to WiFi network.

Boohoo.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrusct82:
Press menu key (the one from the left with four squares).

And choose skip setup.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sssputnik:
Neither of the above work.

Choosing no data plan then insists I connect to a WiFi network and won't let me proceed without setting one.

Hitting menu key, I only see Emergency call, Set up APN, Set up WiFi and IMEI.

:mad:
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neiljain:
Hi Buddy,

I know that you really want to avoid rooting and installing a custom rom.

However, can I suggest you to flash an alternative SBF that allows you to skip Motoblur.

It will look exactly the same, except for any service provider applications.

If you have the Telstra Defy+ handset, I can recommend you a FW that works.

Thanks,

neiljain
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sssputnik:
Think you are right. Could you mail the FW link to me? sss _at micromine.com

Appreciated.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neiljain:
Hi Buddy,

I have personally used the Retail Taiwanese firmware which works with Telstra. I have not tested 3G though as I don't need it.

Note that if you do flash the new firmware, there is no way as far I know to restore it back to the original firmware. Also, the phone warrantee will become void. If you still want to proceed, the link for the firmware is http://bit.ly/QXwNEw. You will need to flash it using RSD Lite in bootloader mode.

I posted the link on XDA for other people to get the link :)
