[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadtrabulsi:
hello

I have just got my galaxy tab2 10.1

android 4.0.3

first I worked on WiFi as well, I insert my SIM and reboot and I lost my WiFi connection the WiFi is working but can not find my net signal,also I tried different SIMs ,also removed the SIM,the problem can only solve by factory reset ,any other way to fix ??

thanks
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadtrabulsi:
any suggest?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BongStrong:
sounds like your best bet would be to just factory reset with the sim card in it. Taking the sim card out and putting it back in has apparently confused your tab and the only way to fix it would be for the sim to re-validate with your carrier after seeing a fresh install. you might be able to try the setup wizard but i dont see that revalidating your sim since its already verified. Factory reset isnt end of the world, if you start rooting and flashing custom roms you'll get real used to resetting up your tab/phone in minutes from a fresh wipe.

[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] htctouchelfin:
Hi, i'm coming from 2 years of htc desire HD, I'm interested to buy a new phone, i was wainting for htc m7, but 8x is really beautifull, but i'm a little scared about wp8 give me good reasons to don't be scared and to buy 8x.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] SuFuS01dier:
Its a smooth phone. Me and my wife wasted our upgrades on a pair of 8x. Missing a lot of basic functions and apps, which I could deal with, but then stopped receiving texts, missing calls and random rebooting. I'm now back to my Inc 2 until I can afford to buy a used phone. Very bitter about the whole deal
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] stephboyle127:
Reasons to want a 8x

1. Its a beautiful phone.

2. Very well made.

3. Screen is awesome.

4. Camera is up there with the 920, in my opinion.

5. WP8 is a great OS. Very fluid and just works.

6. iOS and Android users always moan about the Apps, I have been with WP since the beginning and have never had any problems. Some of the big names may be missing but the alternatives on WP are in my opinion better. I believe its quality over quantity.

7. Many moan about the live tiles being distracting. If they actually use a WP they would know that these tiles stop animating after two minutes of non use so not distracting at all.

Hope these small points help in your decision.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] htctouchelfin:
Thanks, I know, it have a beautiful design, i'm afreid about the apps, and the personalization, i have the flash maniac syndrome :) , but, i'm considering it, because, i'll usually don't play games on phone, my use is, send sms some calls, music (very important) photo, and when bored going to Facbook,

Maybe is better if you sell it, to recover some money.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] jerrya:
Ease of use. Fluid system, reduced dependence.on apps, elegant design, OS quality (texts, emails, cloud integration) Xbox connectivity.

Now, flashing my old android several times, I was worried about that as well. But this phone, I honestly don't want to flash!

I was also worried about the lack of customization, but these live tiles and just the whole set up just seems to work!

There are some apps that you may miss, but outside of Alarm Clock Extreme, I have found I don't miss anything, or.found I don't ned it after all.

Easiest for me to say is that this phone just works, really well.

Design

I've been a long user of HTC ever since android. Before I loved the SE phones (in the time each phone came with its own OS)

It depends what you want to do with this phone, yet I found ALOT of problems with it and reverted to my old phone even though I like the phone physically less. (HTC Desire HD)

PRO:

* Very nice design, feels just right and light

* Pretty interface

* High quality

* Top notch technology

CONS:

* Connectivity is bad - all applications are "loading... loading..." you'll find yourself waiting alot (no issue with Wifi or 3G)

* Screens are often out of sync and reload...

* No USB drive (this means, you can't plug the phone in your car to listen to music)

* No decent navigation software

* The music application is confusing - where do you "play all" ?

* All screens sortof look the same - it might be a pro as all your social networks are seemlessly put together - yet it gets boring as all looks the same. It's not an engaging experience.

* No Sender or caller block

* No sync SMS/MMS with gmail

* No "Save MMS"

* Gmail application is rediculiously slow in incomplete

* The "cloud" and sync options seem scattered. There hasn't been a clear place where I could understand what is synced and how

* How much I would love to use the NFC - yet the software is a bunch of scatterbrainedness

* No settings button

* Personalisation is limited to changing the base color - which is from a picklist (not a colorwheel)

* Typing takes more effort as typing on the HTC Desire HD (more spelling mistakes - less well touch-prediction)

I really love how the phone feels in the hand and the design - I'm in love with it. But the software has been so annoying and breaking my flow I'm back to my old phone and selling (or hoping for improvements) this one.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] jValdron:
Just thought I'd add my comments. I've been an Android fan for many years, but I really don't regret my choice of switching to the 8X.

Never had that problem myself. On 4G+ and Wifi.

Neither does the iPhone, the Android, and most major phones. They're all MTP now.

Nokia Drive.

When you launch the Music app, at the bottom, there's a play button. That plays all of your music.

It is the Metro look. I much prefer that everything looks the same than every app you download has it's own look. Just look at Android, a lot of apps doesn't really look good, weird icons, colors, etc.

I do agree that most of the cloud syncing is a bit weird and incomplete. The problem is that Google needs to realize that there's a potential on WP8 and develop apps for it.

Personally, overall, I love that phone. It's, without a doubt, the fastest phone I've ever used. Even if the specs are slower than a lot of high-end phones out there, the software is just so much faster.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] htctouchelfin:
At the and i bought it, it' ok, but wp8 is missing a lot of things, one of that when i go to music, there's no way to find a single song by typing the name of it, really?
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] jerrya:
yes, there are some basic elements missing, however, if you tap on the little squares at the top of each section, it brings up a way to quickly go to a section alphabetically. Hope that helps.

And don't give up on the phone whenever you have a problem, ask and there are a lot of people who can help you out!

[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] stephboyle127:
To find a single song.

1. Go into media

2. Select music.

3. Swipe right to songs.

4. Then just press letter of song name.

I know its not the quickest, but also not that hard.
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] htctouchelfin:
Not what i was searching for but is ok thanks :) not dlna in wp8? is there a possibility to have it soon? in next realese maybe
[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] thegh0sts:
tempted to get an 8X as a potential replacement if/when my S3 suffers the SDS fate. the thing that ticks me off is the fact that the 8S has a micro SD slot and the 8X doesn't.

removable battery is not so bad but i do feel that 16gb isn't a whole lot for a phone nowadays....especially since my S3 has 16 + a 64gb sd card. i could live with 32gb if they every offered it.

EDIT : i have used WP 7.5 before in the past and i like the (formally known as "metro") UI and really like it because it was different to android and iOS at the time.

In my opinion it's unlockable If s1tool says:

"NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE"

Or

"Semc SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE"

It's unlockable otherwise it's not.

It's unlockable I think but it's your phone ,your risk, I'm not responsible for bricks.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Abhinav1997:
You can but make sure you're on official ics on both the phones before flashing the ics based ROM.

Here's what u shud do:

1. Install official ICS on both phones.

2. Now root ur phone.(if u officially upgraded via pcc or sus. No need if u did OTA update or used flashtool with correct wipes)

3. Install CWM(not need if already present)

4. Install the custom ICS u want by correct procedure in the thread of the ROM.

5. Boot ur phone and then make a CWM backup.

6. Now copy the backup and paste it to other phone's sdcard in the backup folder of cwm in sd card(or just move ur sdcard from the phone u made backup to other phone)

7. Now restore the backup in other phone and boot...then ur done...

Congrats :)

Press THANKS if I helped,

Regards,

AJ
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
I would also recommend installing the ics kernel before you use cwm to restore the ICS you installed manually onto your other phone. I would also do a factory reset and use cwm to wipe dalvik cache and cache. These last steps are probably not even necessary but I am feeling a little superstitious.....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] batjon:
Thanks guys. That's a shame, I was hoping to do without the faff of insstalling and rooting ICS twice.

Peace
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Abhinav1997:
U can use flashtool or do an ota update if u don't want to lose root and btw the kernel trick for rooting .587 is also very easy ;)

Hi there guys! I'm having some problems again with init.d not working. It only seems to be triggered whenever I install a new custom kernel by flashing it, wiping the dalvik cache and cache then fixing the permissions. The problems is, whenever I check Seeder to see if it's working or not via Terminal Emulator. Seeder says it's off although it's set to run at every boot. The things that I've tried to fix it is by restoring the /system partition of my RC6 backup with no mods/scripts or custom kernels installed. How do I prevent it from happening again as doing all those things are time consuming.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pita910:
Hi,

I´m from Portugal and since December i have a Xperia U (Optimus operator), stock ROM was 2.3.7. After 2 weeks i update using Pc Companion to ICS (release 6.1.1.B.1.54 ). I notice some delay in response, no big deal, i was satisfied with it. But after about 10 days or so, it start freezing aplications, and some errors messages. After it when i want to use the phone it only shows a screen saying that only emergency calls allowed". Werd, i take out the battery teh SIM, and the same problema, can use at all the phone. Take it to the warranty, they reset the factory settings, and install again the 2.3.7. Phone is fine, the first day i have aftaer the warranty i install the ICS using the PC companion (official release from Sony) again. Guess what 3 days later the same problem. They restore again the phone with 2.3.7 an till now, after 2 or 3 weeks the phone is fine.

I´m thinking Sony made a bad job with ICS to the Xperia U. What you guys think about it? Do you think i can install a custom ROM or other rOM from Sony? I don´nt now if there are others to my phone. Wich custom ROMS can i use?

Thanks guys for the help, and sorry about my English.

okay buddies... recently I've been trying to get my network printer.

well when I say network print, I mean it's connected to a PC, not the router.

but I found out that it's not available on the network, even though it's been setup as a network printer. so any info on this problem go ahead and bash the answer in.

also if it's helpful, I've got a wifi booster, 'devolo' so my surface is connecting to that. I've found out that being connected to that stop me from looking at my NAS drive.

ha... yup (i'm not daft) the PC is shared and so is the printer.

also, after trying a lot to get it to work... I went on the desktop mode, and opened up IE, then CTRL + P, after fiddling with a few things I clicked add printer... *my face lights up* my HP lazerjet was on the list. but then after double clicking on it, the damn thing said something about the drivers being missing, but after finding out that the surface doesn't have a disc drive I tried the HP website to get the drivers, but they only come in .exe which doesn't work on this device. :@

If it's an HP Printer it should've been added automatically (mine did). However, HP also has 2 apps in the Windows Store which assist with this. One is HP Scan and Share or something along those lines, and the other one is Printer Solutions I think. Search for them and try that out.

[Venue Pro General] cdgoin:
Everything you need from Mango (DVPs normally upgrade to Mango on their own) to 7.8 is there..

#1 - First be sure your phone has gone through the normal procedure to 7720 (Mango)

#2 - Then go here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/15491148/Update - DVP.zip

Done.. and done..

DVP help

Attached is what i'm looking at is it supposed to say "ERROR: no update found"

Also how do you know why it update is finished? I ran all 7 cabs through the sender and nothing happened.
[Venue Pro General] savage25rcracer:
Currently on 8107

im on build 8107 will this still work?
[Venue Pro General] cdgoin:
OK.. First off remember to move the CABs in order to the folder th BAT file is in, don't move the BAT to the CAB folder.

This will work with any version post Mango.. Just start with the set of CABs you last ended with.

IE, if you have 8107, go to the folder after 8107 and use those CABs..till 7.8..

Other tips..

1) Make sure you have upgrade via Zune to Mango first

2) Make sure Zune is off

3) make sure you install the WP07 support tools before running the BAT file.

4) to ensure a clean install of all filess.. Hard reset the phone. Before installing all the CAB files.

Hope that helps.. Remember when all else fails read the directions.
[Venue Pro General] cdgoin:
OK..

> First off remember to move the CABs in order to the folder the BAT file is in

> Don't move the BAT to the CAB folder. (It won't find the program files it needs that way)

> You will know it done with each step, when your phone and the command line says Success! (This will come up each time you go through the Update procedure)

> Don't try to run the BAT file without moving the CABs into the correct folder (results it will not finding the files to update with)

> Don't try to run all the CABs at one time (From all the folders) also can cause problem

> DO copy ALL the files from the INDIVIDUAL folders for each run.. (Some updates required 1 file, some 2, some 3, etc.)

So remember :

Create folder and unzip all the files and folders into the directory (We will call it UPDATE and put it on the desktop for example)

Install WP7 Update Tool (See folder --> update tool - INSTALL FIRST)

Start by moving the files in CABS/7740 folder to the main UPDATE folder you created (the one with the BAT file in it) and run the bat.

In command windows hit <S>

Let phone go through the upgrade process

After successful upgrade, move the 7740 file(s) from main folder, and replace with CABs from the next folder (8107) in the order

Run the BAT again.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..

Also, This will work with any version post Mango.. Just start with the set of CABs you last ended with.

IE, if you have 8107, go to the next folder after 8107 and use those CABs..till 7.8..

Other tips..

1) Make sure you have upgraded via Zune to Mango first

2) Make sure Zune is off

3) To ensure a clean install of all the CABs. Hard reset the phone. Before installing all the CAB files. (Not required.. but it doesn't hurt)
