[General Questions and Answers] Jayus:
I have a Tunnelbroker 4to6 static tunnel connection to my router. My router feeds dual stack ip-addresses to all wifi clients. As it is 2012 all platforms (windows 7, linux and android) prefers ipv6 over ipv4 making sites with only ipv4 load balancers like youtube run considerably slower. However I have successfully set it so that ipv4 have higher priority in both windows 7 and linux. So I'm wondering if there are anything like /etc/gai.conf under android or if there are any other solution to this?

I'm running Paranoid android (based on cm10) on HTC One X.

Regards!
[General Questions and Answers] Jayus:
There got to be someone who knows how to set this!! Please help me!

Jayus
[General Questions and Answers] cb0gus:
[MENTION=4721651]Jayus[/MENTION], did you manage to solve this? I too have a usecase for this: an app tries to contact a server and this server _does_ have an AAAA record but is not yet reachable via IPv6. Thus, contacting the server via IPv6 fails, making the app to fail. I'd like to prefer IPv4 for _certain_ addresses.

Setting net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 helps, but this disables IPv6 system wide and I don't want this.
[Motorola Droid 4] captainstarbucs:
Hey guys! My contract from verizon is running up and I desperately need a new phone; but I still have unlimited 4G and I'm not going to let Verizon contract me into another phone and lose it! HAH What a joke, 2gb a month for the "cheapest" option? No thank you. So I went ahead and ordered a mint condition Droid 4 for a nice price :) It should arrive this Friday :D

I'm upgrading from a Thunderbolt (the old girl served me well) and I cannot, and I can't stress this enough, cannot WAIT to have a physical keyboard back. I used to to be a Blackberry Curve and Tour owner back in the day before I made the switch to Android.

My question to you guys is, what ROM should I run? I want a full experience, so no non-working mechanics so I will be staying away from the broken camera roms, at least til they're stable. Also, what other things should I know before getting my new phone?

Thanks, and I hope to be part of the xda droid 4 owning family in a couple of days :)
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
If your looking for bug free myfishbear's Eclipse ROM is probably the way to go. As for other things to know, you will need to root and install safestrap recovery in order to install ROMs. I recommend the Droid 4 Utility ICS Only. That will allow you to root and also has a function to install safestrap.

And welcome to the D4 forums!
[Motorola Droid 4] captainstarbucs:
Thank you! I was seriously expecting responses like "buy a better phone" or something. Quick question; do I have to flash radios like I did with the Thunderbolt? If I get stock gingerbread OS, should I upgrade to stock ICS and then root? Or will it not make a difference?

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
I love my D4 :) You do not need to flash radios or anything like that. If it still has GB on it I would go ahead and update to ICS first and then root. That way you don't have to mess with root keeper or anything like that.
[Motorola Droid 4] captainstarbucs:
Thanks for the reply again! I will upgrade to ICS then root :)

It'll be here tomorrow, can't wait!
[Motorola Droid 4] wheeliest:
I suggest rooting stock and freezing a bunch of the garbage ICS apps that you will never use.
[Motorola Droid 4] The Kraken!:
Fwiw, I've recently bought a used D4 for the same reason

(High 5!) And have not installed a new rom. I've just rooted, mainly so I could freeze a few things and use rom toolbox's ad blocker. Not to take anything away from the devs who do great work, but personally I'm totally happy with the (rooted) stock ICS. I know JB is supposed to be snappier, but I'm not seeing any sluggishness anyway. Welcome to the D4 world-the keyboard is AWESOME, really.
[Motorola Droid 4] orangechoochoo:
I'd prefer to install Eclipse rom because there is no bloat to freeze and it's really fast. Also, it gets rid of a few spy tools Moto and Verizon placed on the stock roms.

Moreover, when using safestrap (which is needed to flash a rom) you don't have to worry about screwing up your system because it prevents you from messing up the stock rom.
[Motorola Droid 4] captainstarbucs:
FedEx is terrible. My phone won't be here til tomorrow :(

Anyway.

I think I will try and use Eclpise first. It looks like what I am after :)
[Motorola Droid 4] Lum_UK:
Another vote for Eclipse here

The JB ROMs, CM10, AOKP etc. are all very nice, but missing crucial features like camera flash and the HDMI port.
[Motorola Droid 4] The Kraken!:
Does eclipse introduce any bugs? If it gives stock functionality without the stock bloat, I'll be changing my mind...:)
[Motorola Droid 4] Lum_UK:
Not noticed any bugs.

I find the (optional, flashed separately) speed tweaks to really hurt battery life, but the basic ROM (plus olegfusion's GSM patch) works just fine.
[Motorola Droid 4] The Kraken!:
Thanks! In that case I'll probably try it out when my semester ends and I have time to tinker.
[Motorola Droid 4] komani86:
I want to tag in here, I recently purchased this phone and im from the Netherlands. I read that the Droid4 will have stock JB (4.2) support. The thing is, I am dutch and the phone isn't unlocked. Now i've been trying to understand if the update is possible for me and if the update is out allready (cant find anything about it)

Little background info:

I've had the desire Z when it intially launched and it broke down last month. Been using the desire for a month and im going nuts! Really missing a physical HD and when I started googling it seemde that the droid4 is made for me, but not being sold in stores in the NL.
[Motorola Droid 4] sonic1675:
It depends... what are running right now? what are you looking for? performance or battery life??????????????
[Motorola Droid 4] The Kraken!:
I have not seen any news that this phone will get 4.2, but Motorola currently has the device listed among those that will receive 4.1 at some point (no date scheduled, though). There has not yet been an official stock release of any form of Jellybean to the Droid 4 so far.
[Motorola Droid 4] komani86:
Sorry for the late reply, I got the phone now and I saw that Hashtag is one of the core dev's for 4.1/4.2 AOKP/CM10. The phone is unlocked when upgrading to ICS via WiFi, so thats not a worry. The problem is that I cant get the data to work, ive posted about it here

Fixed! Was blind and didnt see this post Ideal for GSM users :)
[Motorola Droid 4] Lum_UK:
I've never had much luck with GSM/UMTS data on Hashcode's ROMs. Stick with something like Eclipse ICS for now until Hashcode's ROMs mature a bit.
[Motorola Droid 4] FSN:
if I were you, I'd also go for the eclipse rom.

I had installed the jb rom at first, but somewhen it got really slow and apps began to crash, I also lost connection with my carrier more often then with the eclipse rom that I've changed to now.
[Motorola Droid 4] Baconstrip:
I just recently got a used Droid 4 myself, and I have to agree with ECLIPSE. It was the first rom I installed (immediately after I got the phone), and I rooted/safestrapped with the ICS Utility. It was an absolute breeze, and ECLIPSE is running wonderfully.
[Windows 8 General] mailxd:
It seems Samsung 500T (win 8, not RT) is close, but still heavier. Besides its Atom dual-core cpu is a bit soft.

p.s. win8 RT doesn't count (Surface/etc). Besides, Surface Pro is too heavy beyond 1.9lb.
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Surface Pro is only slightly heavier than 1.9 lb; I don't know of a lighter one that runs Win8 and has anything close to decent specs. There's a list of x86 Windows tablets, with specs comparisons, in a post on the Surface forum; direct link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2024104

You will probably either have to do it yourself or send it in for a refurb.

Send it to Samsung. Its $178 including 2 day shipping both ways. I did it. Was smooth and simple
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jinetix:
Check if the carrier or Samsung will replace/repair the phone for you. If you have insurance on your phone w/ your carrier then you can make a claim as well. A replacement screen costs over $200.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TCM55:
Wow that isn't too bad, some local places around here charge $299!

All of you ar lazy. 30 bux and 2 hours of time and ur phone will be as good as new. You I bought a glass for mine. Seperarted the front and bafk stuck the front piece jn the oven for 20 minutes at 200 degrees and I seperated the glass from the lcd and stuck the replacement glass on it. Good job you just paid somebody 126 bux to change a little piece of glass.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
That's pretty horrible reasoning. Maybe they don't feel comfortable taking a heat gun to a $400 phone with no guarantee that it will be fixed. Have you ever paid to have a car fixed? I did the head gasket on my mustang and saved my self 3000 but would I think someone was lazy because they took there's too a shop? Of course not they may just not have the technical skills.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ivie:
me too! cheaper now

i am sending mine in to samsung. As of today cost is 135.31 after shipping both ways. this is to replace glass, lcd and digitizer, sounds like i'll get a new frame too!

**edit**

FYI i lacked the technical skills to do this. my lcd and digitzer was fine. then i tried to remove the glass, well i suck at life and i broke the lcd and cut the digitizer! so im a noob! BFD! and yes i read the how to and watched vids, even had a second set of hands. i would say try it, you're looking at 20 bux nowadays for the glass. if you break it like me its still under $140 to send it in to get it fixed by samsung. better than having some pro screen guy do it, he charges you much more the glass alone.

(if this helped please give me a thanks)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] glacious2k:
Grab a new screen online (ebay, other sites). Most come with instructions on how to do it, just takes patience.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ivie:
If you are replacing just the glass yes. If your LCD is busted don't bother. send to samsung, its cheaper than all other options.

i cracked just the glass, bought a new red glass (which i still have in packaging) and 2mm tape (still have too in package) PM if you want them.

in the process of removing old glass, i destroyed my LCD, this is why I'm sending to samsung.

20$ for the glass is definately worth an attempt on your own but research alot before you do, its a tedious and scary process, at least its scary when you see the lcd break...

unless i'm looking in the wrong places, you cant find an LCD/ digitizer/ glass assembly for less than $135.31 shipped.

if you are in a hurry and trust yourself, and money isn't a factor, do it yourself, shipping to samsung will take around 10 days. But if money isn't a factor just buy a new phone and sell yours on ebay!

[HTC One X+] XSafire:
I'm wondering if there is anything holding back an AOSP build for the HOX+. I've read that it might be lack of kernel source, S-OFF, or a driver related issue. I've noticed a lot of Sense-based ROM's pop up lately and I was just curious if there's something we're waiting on before a AOSP ROM can be possible, or if it's just lack of development. I'm coming from a Gnex so I don't know a great deal about subsidized phone "hacking".

I just "arrived" now here coming from the One V

I have worked there together with Lloir to sucessfully make

CM9 and CM10 available for the One V

So you can expect that this "project" now gets some extra "boost"

having 2 people working on it.

And I really really really have the strong need to get rid of that Sense

stuff ASAP :)

That's awesome news Maxwen!

Yes, the official USB does work, but not if you try any other "bigger" one, like if you got one in the car, one @ work, etc...I tough I specified it in the video, maybe I forgot!

as for shipping from canada to US, considering the customs and how long they can take, I wouldn't expect it to be delivered within a week! Have you tryed best-buy?
[LG Optimus G (International)] runlsd:
just got the bumper from Futureshop today. the free shipping (within Canada) took only one day to deliver.

Definitely a better case by look and feel compared to the hard rubber one I got from Telus. I like the grip better, looks sharp. But it also leaves the back exposed.

The only gripe is that my earphones with L-shaped connector doesn't click ALL the way. Still plays music but comes off a bit easy.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Singlddy:
So how does this bumper compares to a case like Otterbox?

I mean esthetics are good, but does it protect the glass on both sides or is it just a bare minimum.

(protection against a 4 yo boy is key for me)
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
Well, it creates a "bump" over the back and front. So, unless it is droped on something pointy, It is protected.

[LG Optimus G (International)] sucsss:
yea. I guess that's my only option.

still feels odd paying so much for so little.
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
You can still get a cheap TPU case for a couple of $ if you don't want the quality of the OEM bumper...

But it will be not even close in quality and design!
[LG Optimus G (International)] sucsss:
