[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] SerkTheTurk:
Hi, I have a 4.2 and my RAM always gets used up. I try my best to close background programs, but yet I still have barely any left. I always have to force restart the player. This problem started happening out of nowhere. I didn't install any apps or anything either... I've been using ADW Launcher EX and ics keyboard for a while. Any help?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] NATO556:
You could try Go launcher EX. That seems to manage my RAM better. Also, if you are not already doing so, turn off your Wi-Fi when you are not using it or it is not around. Also once you turn off your Wi-Fi, try rebooting, that usually will stop any apps that stay open and require Wi-Fi in various ways that somehow are still active. You could also try a custom kernel, I use Terrasilent and my 64 emulator run smoother and I seem to have more RAM. On top of that to you could try a custom governor, which controls your RAM. Just stay away from task manager apps, they add to the problem instead of solving it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iurnait:
actually, its not bad that your ram is filled up.

Hi all, I posted this in the Q&A section but no one answered...

My touch cover makes a sound when I press the keys.. no it's not the "pop" sound from the OS.

video: youtube

Is it normal and does your touch cover also do this?
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Never heard anything from mine or anybody else's except for the sound that the OS makes...
[Microsoft Surface] schettj:
Wow, that is weird. They should be silent. Are you near a Microsoft store? I would think that would be swapped on the spot. And dissected.
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
There is a thin, pressure-sensitive layer which will deform a little bit under pressure (this is how it registers your keypresses) but it's almost invisibly thin and I've never heard anything before. Agreed with schettj on this one, although since it works anyhow if getting it replaced would be a hassle, you might be able to get by.

Has the cover ever gotten really wet? They're almost entirely waterproof (you can clean them with a damp cloth just fine, I'm not sure about a running faucet), but the contacts at the top are not sealed and if water got in there it might "squish" a bit.
[Microsoft Surface] HTCalltheway:
Thank guys!!

Thanks everyone!

im 500km from the nearest ms store... :S guess I'll have a small trip soon...

just hope the replacement I get will be okay...

BTW my touch cover never got near any water.. :)

Hi!

I am deciding between these 2 micro SD card's. Please tell me which one of these 2 is better.

1) PNY 8GB MicroSD Class 4 Memory Card

2) RetailPlus 8GB Class 10 microSD Card (MEMS8GC10)

Thanks :)
[General Questions and Answers] murshid1988:
You don't have to judge between them. Both will be awesome somehow. Anyway I vote for PNY.
[General Questions and Answers] curryfishes:
Is there a big difference between Class 4 and Class 10?
[General Questions and Answers] XPinochitoX:
Well it really depends on how much memory you want in my opnion the more the better also how much can your device hold. Some device only go up to 32gb, I love my 64 gb sandisk class 10 running
[General Questions and Answers] Gilly1984:
Class 10 will be much faster, minimum 10Mb per second write speed. (If it really is a class 10)
[General Questions and Answers] MeS117:
I got a 16 GB Class 4 SanDisk microSD for around $20 or $30 while on sale. I find that you can often find these better known brands on sale quite often. Check weekly flyers of stores nearby.

Personally, I got mine from Tiger Direct.

EDIT: As for your two options, I do not need the speed that a class 10 microSD has to offer. I would just go with whichever is known to be more reliable. Exactly why I would opt to find a SanDisk on sale.
[General Questions and Answers] zano07:
Class 10 is faster for read/write data.
[General Questions and Answers] hi.johney:
Class 10 MicroSd is far better

Class 10 MicroSd is far better as it is also recommended for RAM expander app
[General Questions and Answers] hellios1:
Odp: Which micro SD card is better?

Class determine only write speed not read. If you are using card simple as storage you dont really need class 10 but ofc copying files will be faster. Class 10 is recomended for making hi res movies, gaming or ( as mentioned above) swap. Personally i recomend Samsung class 10 cards, no problems and nice speed.
[General Questions and Answers] darkie666:
i would say go with class 10 it is the faster out of the 2
[General Questions and Answers] nadiren:
as it is stated above if u use it for swap etc., a high speed card would be very handy, but as for just storage i'd go for pny.. btw take a look at this topic for the speeds: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15269669#post15269669

Hi,

I recently got a N64 emulator and have been playing it with my xbox controller in between my classes. I've been wanting to play Smash Bros with my friends but I can't figure out how to connect 2 Xbox controllers. Would a USB hub allow me to do this? Would I need it to have external power?

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

As far as I know flash doesn't work with stock browser or Chrome I don't know about Maxhton. But in Firefox it workd like a charm to me. If you can't install the flash form your device you can try with the Nexus Root Toolkit it has a "Install APK" option in it's advance menu which might work.

A straight forward guide on how to flash CWM .... ANYWHERE?

I dont feel I'm a noob.... I've flashed all my phones.... Elf, HD, HD2, Desire.... but this Xoom is about to go out the window!

The instructions to me read "boot to recovery and flash from SD card" ... how do I boot to recovery when thats what I'm trying to install? :confused:

I've tried Lord AIO and that will unlock the bootloader, but CWM install flashes past in under a second so I dont think its working... If I try the root it just says it cant find SD card... and of course CWM ROM manger wants Root access.... One click root wont work with UK Xooms...

Anyone got a straight forward guide.... ?:fingers-crossed:

UK Xoom running 4.1.2 wifi...

For example.... TWRP thread ....

Installation instructions (option 1)

Download zip file from link below

Place zip on Micro SDcard

Reboot into existing recovery

HOW? I'm trying to install my first recovery??????

Cold booting ODM? whats that??? I get that if I hold vol + & - together....

Or power and Vol - I get "Starting Fastboot protocol support" - it stays there until I reset it....:(
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfib1:
Here is how I rooted my xoom and install the initial custom recovery and the install TWRP recovery.

If you already unlocked your bootloader you can skip that step.

follow the directions here but instead of doing step 1 follow this for adb install http://www.support-4-you.com/main/i...ged-adb-installation&catid=40:how-tos&Itemid= it is a 1 click adb install then follow from step 2 on.

When you are done there you can install TWRP 2.4 touch screen recovery (a much better recovery than what you used to root.)

Download TWRP2.4 zip and put on the root of your external sd card. ( if you don't have a sd card we will do it another way just let me know)

Boot into recovery by turning your xoom off.

1. press power

2. when the moto dual core logo comes on wait 3 seconds and press volume down

3. recovery should be displayed across the top press volume up.

You can skip steps 1- 3 now that you are rooted if you download Quick Boot open it, select recovery and the grant Super user permission

4. go to install zip from sd card (just like when you rooted) and find the TWRP 2.4 Zip and install

5. reboot your xoom

6. you now have TWRP 2.4 recovery installed.

Spent hours on this now.... nothing

Its a UK GED Wifi Xoom... I bought it with ICS on and its done OTA to JB 4.1.2 - so I guess it has already had the bootloader unlocked... I've unlocked it again... so I dont know if that has caused problems...

I've tried following the guides but they seem very disjointed and not easy to follow, is it worth continuing? am I actually going to gain anything?

It would be nice to be able to overclock it as the Xoom is starting to show its age now.......

I'd be most grateful if anyone can help me....... :(
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnishamk:
Google whether your phone can be bootloader unlocked. If it can then the best way (I think) to get cwm and root is to

unlock bootloader.

flash a kernel boot.img in fast boot which has cwm.

Flash a rom which has root

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

TRY THIS FOR FASTBOOT

OH JUST A NOTE DON'T TRY FASTBOOT IN WIN 8: IT DOESN'T WORK

GO TO WHEREVER FASTBOOT IS

SHIFT AND RIGHT CLICK SAY OPEN CMD HERE

DRAG FASTBOOT INTO CMD {SPACE} FLASH {SPACE} BOOT DRAG BOOT IMAGE TO CMD

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

So basically instead of typing fast boot drag it. I and the same goes for the last bit in ur case the cwm img file
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfib1:
easy fix. The folder you have adb installed you need to put fastboot.exe and then run the fastboot command.

It sounds like you don't have all the files you need in the same folder.

did you run the one click adb install method I posted?

don't worry about he sdk part (like i posted use the one click adb install and then skip to step 2 of that thread).

If you follow the steps posted in that thread (skipping the sdk) you will be rooted. And then continue on with the rest of the steps I posted for inbstalling TWRP
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geeba:
Really appreciate your help dfib1.... but now I get....

error: cannot load 'recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img'

The disk image file is definitely on the SD card.... :confused:

OK - I put the disk image in the same folder as the SDK_tools and it appeared to flash... I got..

C:\SDK_tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img

sending 'recovery' (3998 KB)... OKAY [ 0.650s]

writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 1.283s]

finished. total time: 1.935s

But when I hit the vol - 3 seconds after the logo I get "Android Recovery" - I selected it with vol+ but I then get a an Android laying on his back with a red triangle...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfib1:
that should have put the recovery on your xoom. Did you unlock your bootloader?

try this recovery twrp 2.4 download it and put it in the c:\sdk_tools folder and type

fastboot flash recovery TWRPv2.4.1.0.img

then try and reboot into recovery

As it says in the title, I went through the steops in the following thread to root my phone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2046439

I followed it to a T, and when it came to rebooting my phone, it said to take out the battery, then put it back in (keep in mind, ODIN said it was successful in doing what it's supposed to do). I unplugged the usb from my phone and took out the battery. I waited a minute then put it back in, now it won't power up. I've scoured the net to find a way to get it to turn on, and everything i've tried failed. The battery was at 95% when I started the process, so it's not a dead battery (i've even let it sit and charge for a bit too on a wall charger). I've tried getting into download mode and various other key combinations while trying to power on the phone, still nothing. I've held the power button while doing key combinations for 30-60 seconds like a post on one of the forums I read suggested, still nothing. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
So to confirm, you got to step 3, you flashed the custom recovery in the PDA slot with ODIN, waited for the green "PASS" to appear, pulled the battery, and are now bricked?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gseyffert:
Also wondering; does the LED turn on? My first attempt at rooting my GS3 the device would boot to a black screen, but the little LED would turn blue. It was also pretty finnicky about booting into download; make sure you have the volume button pressed down first. If you can get it back into download, I would flash a stock recovery via ODIN, and try again (If you're not too traumatized).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xbongox:
You are correct
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xbongox:
The LED doesn't turn on no matter what. As of today, for some reason it turns on for a minute when I plug in the charger (it lights up orange), but then disappears after a few minutes

If you can get it into download mode again, you can flash the stock Verizon ROM.

Download a kernel onto your computer as well as a ROM. Open a command prompt shift +right click. Plug the n7 in to the computer. Type "fastboot reboot recovery" without the quotations and press enter. Your device should boot into Cwm/twrp or whatever recovery in installed. Using windows explorer, Drag the ROM and kernel to your n7. First flash the kernel, then the ROM, then reboot. I know cause this happened to me too.
