i agree with everything you said about the blubuds!

Is it worth getting a pair of the hb730's too, or is that overkill?

I have a Bose BT2 for phone call useage now, which is the best mono bluetooth, without a doubt, and I have read alot of great reviews about the hb730's, most people saying they rival the sound of the blubudz..my wife thinks I need help for this phone accessory obsession!!

BTW, I finally talked her into upgrading the note 1 to a note 2 this weekend, so its off to ebay for her note 1!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Uh, you said something? Sorry, I always get distracted by your avatar :D

You already own bluebuds x and happy with it? Then, I would think HB730 is overkill. You just have to look at it this way, where/how do you use your headphones. Sounds like you already have BT2 for a phone use - check! And you have BBX for exercising or private music/movie listening (those do a great job with passive noise isolation) - check! HB730 will only give an advantage if you to keep it around your neck in case if you receive a call or want to listen to the music, etc. and then park earbuds back until you need to use it again. In a way it combines both and does a decent job, but you already have two other pieces which are at the top of their food chain. So in general, if you want to combine both BT2 and BBX into one piece - HB730 would be a great choice. But if you are happy using each as is, and you are not planning to use HB730 for exercising (beside maybe riding a bike or eliptical, or walking, etc.) - keep what you already have.

For my personal use, since I built my own home gym in the basement and have music/tv in there - I don't need headphones while exercising. For general use I have HB730. But if I want to watch a movie on my phone - I only go with BBX because it isolates the sound (screaming 5yr and 8yr old in the background lol!!!) and almost feel like a surround sound. HB730 has a good clear sound, but it's thinner in comparison to BBX and doesn't have as much bass.

Regarding the phone, I'm surprised your wife didn't want to switch to S4? That's what my wife is thinking about.

Last but not least, list your N1 on ebay and Amazon (create merchant account). I had more success selling our old phones and ipods on Amazon (sells faster, and I can list for a higher price).
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jlczl:
I say if you can.......go for both. I use the BBX for the gym and HB730's for work for the same reasons vectron mentioned. Love 'em.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wase4711:
Yeah, that Avatar was my wife a few years ago..she ages very nicely!

She did want a S4, but I have so many GN2 accessories to share, and she does like the big screen and spen, so I talked her into it!

Never thought about the Amazon Merchant account; I do alot of business on Amazon....I also do alot of business on Ebay, and sometimes the things that people buy from me,(used toothbrushes, razors, old pots and pans) just blows my mind...I bet I get ~250.00 for her GN1 on ebay...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
I bet you get $300+ on Amazon, the cheapest one someone is selling in there for $270 in a questionable shape and no accessories/box. Most of the people are asking north of $300. I know, a little off topic, but about 2 months ago I sold my 2.5+ yr old original DX for $80, 2yr old Fascinate for $90, and both of my kids 4th gen old ipod touches for $110 each. You will be surprised, just click on sell similar item and no need for pictures. Shipping/labels the same as ebay, and they do take the same cut of profit... With this phone upgrade plans, you might be moving into N3 soon :)

With earbuds, yeah - might be a tough call. Maybe if you sell N1 at a decent price, you can justify buying BBX? :) I noticed, no used ones on ebay or Amazon, seems that people are digging it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wase4711:
how do you get payment off Amazon sales? PayPal or something else?

Ebay has been great for me, but, I am always up to try something new!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
You can link it directly to your bank account, that's what I did. After I sold everything, I thought I will get amazon credit or something like that, but instead it was just sitting there for a week until I selected an option to link with my bank account. They wait for 2 weeks to make sure buyers are happy and it doesn't require a refund or something like that, and boom - it gets wired to your bank automatically. Very efficient. It's not bidding like on ebay, but you have full flexibility to add custom description, adjust price, etc. Very clean, and a lot more legitimate buyers, and prices are higher for anything you sell. I hear a lot of companies advertising buying your old smart phone and sending you cash - those companies pay you $100 less, and then they are selling it on amazon as merchants :) That's why prices for use smart phones in there are higher, and also you get more legitimate buyers cause face it - everybody using amazon.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RADLOUNI:
i bought them based on the feedback that there is no delay when playing games. I confirm that THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DELAY with them when playing games.

they're good for listening to music or making calls, but definitely not for games. The delay is roughly 1 second and is quite noticeable

the other thing is that "secure fit" which is advertised to keep the headphones locked in your ears is not for everyone, so it might work with one guy but not with another based on the shape of the earlobe. It definitely did not work with me as the fit is not secure and they fall off

so in a nutshell, I am not happy with them because of the delay and the fact they do not provide a secure fit as advertised, but again secure fit is based on each person's shape of earlobe
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wase4711:
buy a set of Comply ear tips on Amazon, and your fit problem is solved immediately..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
For under $20 it's a lot cheaper than ear reconstruction surgery :D

Regarding sound delay, I'm not sure how could it be related specifically to earphones. Wouldn't it be part of bt driver? Any sound coming off the phone, either if its from listening of music or watching the movie or playing the game, why would it get treated any differently? Have you (Radlouni) tried playing the same game with another set of BT earphones/headphones. I'm just saying that it could be a problem with a game and how sound driver code was implemented in there. I'm honestly not an expert on playing games on N2, so my ears are not as tuned into timing delay. Based on using one specific games you guys asked me to download, I didn't notice a significant delay. Doesn't mean it won't happen in another game. But if you are experiencing the same sound delay problem with other bt earphones, maybe a good idea to contact game developer.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] RADLOUNI:
delay is not a problem specific to earphones, its a problem of the Android bluetooth driver. i have tried multiple BT headsets on android and they all suffer from delay

i have tried all of them again with IOS (iPad and there is no delay). It beats me how Android which is supposed to be a mature OS by now suffers from such things. Google has to re-write the BT driver for android.

I am quite upset though with the fit of the earphones, they dont fit properly and keep falling.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Funny you mentioned this. I recently had a discussion with a guy behind MetaWatch (smart watch similar to Pebble watch). He said something about Google new APK related to BT during their conference (a few weeks ago) and it should address a lot of bluetooth related issues. So, let's keep our fingers crossed!!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] waxworkz:
can any one confirm use or not on the new tips? i just picked up a set and i think i'll order some of these. for some reason the left side doesnt stay in as good as the right and those little wings bug me. would be great to do away with them
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aeo 37:
If you have a problem with it staying in, I definitely recommend you try getting some"Comply" tips.

I had the same problem with mine when I first got them. Was going to return them until I heard about others having the same problem.

You can use the "wing" with the new tips. The new tips are not any larger than what Jaybird supplies you with.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Framedtrash:
Here is a pic of the medium sized jaybird tips next to the medium size comply tsx-500
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Framedtrash:
And a picture with them on the bluebudz
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] waxworkz:
So you do have to use the wings, I thought I could get away without them.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Framedtrash:
Every one has diffrent ears

Since ive added the complys I havnt tried them without the wings

I really dont care how they look aslong as they sound good and dont fall out

Im happy with my purchases
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] svefro:
audio Delay when watching video

All BT audio devices i have tried have a small delay

How are the jaybirds when watching video?

Are the video watchable or do they have to much delay?

i have a surface fro 2 i want 2 use them with?

have anyone tested them with windows and watching video? Preferably windows 8.1

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Suzie:
Hello! I haven't yet bought an XDA for myself, but I have been researching my purchase for months - thank you very much to the people who run this forum, and to the people that have posted so much useful info...

I have also already downloaded heaps and heaps of software to try - I am a software-nut and already have hundreds of apps and games, over 200Mb so far - but no XDA to try them yet!

I already have a nice Panasonic 256Mb SD-Card for my new XDA, but... I have realized that I can't afford a 2nd-Hand 64Mb XDA this month from eBay, although I can afford a 32Mb from eBay. I don't want to wait another month, the waiting is driving me crazy! (I left my old PDA on a train, and my life is falling apart without one!)

So my question is - Will a 32Mb XDA be enough, combined with my 256Mb SD-Card? I know that some apps won't run properly from the card, and I'm afraid that 32Mb won't be enough... On the other hand, I've read that it's mostly system programs that need to be run from the RAM, and they're mostly quite small... But I don't want to get a 32Mb XDA and then find I need to keep shifting apps from the Card to RAM and back again just to get everything running... What's your experience, and your advice?

Thanks,

Suzie
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] alqwerty:
I have the 32MB with kitchen 4.00.05Rom packed full of the free programs.

And yes you have to watch your mem use all the time and I keep a shortcut to a soft-reset program handy.

All my apps are in the sd card and so are the avantgo files.

The only things taking up storage is the PIM data and about 1.3MB of excel files which I need to sync

leaving about 20MB free.

This works very well for me and I do multitask a lot of programs.

Hope this helps.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] frederiklj:
Hi;

I have the Tmobile version with 32mb and a 256sd card and with some tweaks.

I did upgrade to wm2003

Most of the 32ram is used by my Pim

All apps and data are stored backed up on my sdcard and pc

so a restore or glitch is quickly resolved

It works like a gem

Good luck

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Peter Poelman:
I have a 32 MB unit (the 64 MB unit broke at some point). It works fine for me, but then I'm not software freak. I bought "Spb GPRS monitor" from SPB Software and "Agenda Fusion" from Developer One, and that's about all I use, apart from the programs installed on my theft-protected 4.00.11 ROM (I ran 4.00.05 until yesterday...).

If you're that much a software geek, why not get a 32 MB one and have it doctored to 128 MB? Gets you 64 MB main RAM, and an extra 64 MB ultra-fast virtual storage card. Links should be somewhere on this forum, and if memory serves me right it wasn't too expensive.

(And have someone lined up to buy it when the XDA II hits the stores ofcourse.)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] kitarolivier:
I have a 32mb qtek, and would like to upgrade it to 64mb. Of course you can have extra storage with SD cards, but some functionalities don't work on SD card, because when the device is off, it sometimes need 2 or 3 seconds after power on for the card to be recognize. So if you place ring tones or pictures of callers (to use with Caller2picture i.e), they won't be displayed since they try to load picture/ringtone immediately at power on in case of incoming call.

Regards.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Carlos:
Most people do well with the 32MB version, unless they're geeks. I'm one of those geeks, and really like my 64MB, but did survive with 32 for a while. Unless you plan to load a lot of stuff internally, you'll do fine with 32.

Sorry for my poor English.

Yesterday, i faced a problem of "SD card blank", I cannot access into the sd card no matter i tried in my phone or connect to my pc,

however i figure out that if i go to recovery mode, i can find my sd card and the file was entirely the same before.

I wounder can anyone of you can help me to get back my photos and videos, it is memorable for me and i nearly cry.

Please help me!!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] RuedasLocas:
If you don't find other solution, put the card in an adaptor and just copy them to the PC.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ynkamat:
Have you by chance deleted a folder called external SD from your memory card, coz it formats your sd card. Try recovering files from sd card through connecting it via some other usb card reader.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] powervrm3d:
there are programs, that can save the photos even if you format a disk or in this case a sd card...

let me find one for you,,,, don't know if it works...read in here...

http://www.easeus.com/resource/sd-card-format-recovery.htm.

of course there must be other programs better and free, I really don't know if this easeus is of any good...

never tried...

you must have a sd card reader in your pc of course...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ansonlee2001:
thx guys

i tried to use other adapter and i find no change as i still can not found the sd card via pc.

i sure that i have not delete the file of external SD, it keep showing Blank SD on my 4x.

i am really frustrated about that...:crying:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ynkamat:
Maybe sdcard got corrupted. Try formating the card from your phone if it gives you the option. I dont think this will be repeated.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ansonlee2001:
sad..

in fact i dun care about do the sd card can function after all.

i just wonder can i get back my file:crying::crying:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Mr.LOVER:
may be your sd card has corrupted or it is fake, how long are you using it?

once i bought a fake 16gb card it worked good for few days and then the same situation as you are in. and i found no solution to recovery my files as it becomes strange, files are there but you can't use them anymore, can't delete them or copy them.

try using some partition manager after inserting your card into your pc and check if your card is there, and it's status.

if your card is fake, i have no solution,

if it's corrupted, it can be brought back to life by formatting or using other partition recovery tools i think.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ansonlee2001:
i dun know whether it is fake or not, but i have used it for around half a year already.

i dun care whether it can come alive i just want to get back my data.

today i have send the sd card to a engineer, he said he fix it but it cost a large amount of money and i am not able to afford it.

and then he recover the sd card to the original situation.

it means that there must be a solution for it.

can anyone help:crying:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] L2Deliver:
i had the same problem too. my 32GB went on and off after i dropped it from 1 meter high.

Just wanted to share my experience so that someone else can maybe avoid or fix the issue I have encountered.

My sd card (sandisk 16gb) was almost full with almost 1-2mb left. I tried to take a picture and that crashed the camera app after saying there was no more space left. From that moment I could not open the My Files application and every app that had to do with the sd card crashed. My mac nor windows could recognize the sd card and after searching a bit online one solution worked. Chkdisk /X /F g:(sd card drive) in command prompt fixed the sd card and all is working well again.

Hope this helps someone else that might encounter the same problem.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
I've had two BSOD's today. I've owned this phone for about 2 months now and it's never crashed. In fact, it's the first phone I've ever used that hasn't crashed, at least until today.

Earlier, it did it, and then an hour ago, it did it. The second time, the system time was reset to 01:00 hours, Jan 1st 1970 too. I'm quite worried. All Logcat says is this:

Void 2.1 (the revenge) firing up

01-01 :01:00:01.340

Error reading configuration file (no such file or directory)... continuing anyways

System clock is before 1970; setting to 1970.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTzTrevor:
When I first saw the title I assumed it you mean't Blue Screen of Death on the windows operating system. Its probably the sleep of death. Black Screen of Death.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
I wouldn't consider this a Sleep of Death. This seems to be worse. Like it could be a hardware issue. But okay, for semantics sake, call it SoD. The first time it was incredibly difficult. I held the power button down and nothing happened. I then started tapping the power button fast repeatedly and it booted okay. The second time I just repeatedly tapped the power button and it came out of it okay.

There is nothing to describe as such. Both times, the phone was locked and asleep. I pressed the power, and nothing happened. There were no symptoms, or even anything I can think of that remotely links the two. The second time, my clock was reset back to 1970. That, is very worrying. That has repeatedly been linked to a internal battery problem.

I've done a lot of work on Android, including some ROM development and to me, the Sleep of Death is a very specific issue which I attribute, primarily, to the ROM or software being used. This, is a stock ROM, my worry is it's a hardware issue, especially due to what I just said.
