[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Jargon:
After losing two styluses, I bought a stylus with a built-in pen at the other end. To keep from losing this stylus, I modified the XDA II case. I cut the transparent hard plastic packaging material of the stylus and attached it using electrical tape to the top of the XDA II leather case. The plastic is now blocking the path of the stylus. There is no way now for the stylus to fall unless I open the case.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] alanjohnstone:
I don't like cases so I don't have that option. I was wondering if there was a way to modify the silo or perhaps put some sort of compression spring/washer in the grove at the bottom end of the stylus
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] AcidSlide:
Real Filipino inguinity.. hehehehehe... :lol:

Almost lost my sytlus two days ago, its a good thing that I remembered that I tried to get the stylus out while in the car but had to stop because my XDA2 fell in the floor. After 2 hours my friend noticed that the stylus is missing, took me a few minutes before I remembered the attempt that I made while inside the car... hehehe.. almost made me angry at the thought of losing the stylus...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schweetz:
Hi all.

I am aware that I am a new member but I did search in regards to activating the camera on Bluestacks but failing to do so.

What I am trying to do:

Use my camera on my laptop on apps, such as Instagram, Whatsapp.

What I have done:

I tried to use the camera on Bluestacks apps, but all I got is a black screen.

Read the forums and changed the camera registry to 1, still the same problem even after restarting the app and computer.

Is there a way to maybe change the source of the camera to direct it to my default camera?

Or if there is something wrong with the default camera, I have an external USB camera as well. Could I re-route and get Bluestack to select that camera instead? There is a front and back camera, maybe that can be done?

Thanks for the help!

Hello,

I have Sony Xperia S running Android and i am wondering if it is possible to modify the boot loader to accept windows ISO from USB stick or from internal storage? or is it possible to somehow convert windows desktop ISO into a ROM somehow? the reason i am asking is because i like the unrestricted features of windows and the ability to run .EXE on my phone would be brilliant and being able to use skype for group calls which is not featured on android yet.

Thanks everyone... looking forward to your replies

no you cant convert an iso to a rom...its not that easy. However there are some devs who have managed to port the windows phone os to some devices.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adry1988:
I updated to 4.2.1 lately and it's so unstable.

My experiences with new update:

1.Poor battery life

2.restarts itself every now and then

3.streaming videos doesn't go well either for some reason

4.doesn't seem as stable.

When I first got the tablet it was fast and everything worked well but now it feels unstable. When the dock is connected it charges the screen but when it goes dead it seems to discharge the screen even without using it.

Has anyone else experienced this problems?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerdely:
Yea these are common problems i had exchanged my device because had 30 days to do so but the random reboots are still there doesn't seem to be any fix except for maybe another future update. I hope asus looks at these problems we are having and trying to fix. Theres alot more to it than what you had said just look in the q and a section so many people having problems if thats all you have your lucky as well i but so many aren't also wait and see more could pop up in future took a while after i got my exchange and some more problems decided to show them selves. This update was just thrown together wasn't good. Other thing you can do is go back to previous firmware some have done that you can go back as far as the first jb update but alot have just gone 4.1.1 i stuck with this one after my replacement and about a week later i just get a random reboot once and while my original would every couple hours device was almost useless not much can do to fix it but go back at this point.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerdely:
No you don't can downgrade or reflash without being unlocked. Just name the 4.1.1 update file US_epad-user-10.4.2.20.zip or where US is just put what ever version your using like WW. You can go back as far as first jb update but 4.1.1 should be good in your case to flash cm or what ever else. I would unlock unless absolutly decided to or unless warranty ran out but to some that doesnt matter to them i would have thought same in passed but thats due to how asus made the unl0ck tool and they'd know no need in this case for u though.

[HTC EVO 3D] atomicfire:
I am getting kicked off of Sprint's network because I moved out of service range. I was about 4 months into a 24mo contract when I moved, so I was not about to terminate that contract. I just now got the letter stating that my line is being disconnected.

I would like to keep my HTC Evo3D phone but move to a Verizon account. I have been searching to find out if this is possible and I have turned up many differing responses. I am hoping to get a definitive answer here. I have seen that it is NOT possible, and that it is illegal.

I have also seen that it IS possible, but I can't find any walkthroughs with the actual EVO3d that I can use.

Granted this phone isn't worth a whole lot anymore, but I can't go and spend $200-300 on another phone right now when I have a perfectly good one. Is anyone willing to give me an honest opinon on my problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] jaredl45600:
The device can be flashed to Verizon, but you will probably have to do it yourself. Most contract providers don't do flashing.

[HTC EVO 3D] liljoka166:
I heard Verizon prepaied allows sprint esns. Dont know the truth behind it. Call and find out. Let us know what they say. But as far as flashing goes its easy to do. It's the esn that is the tricky part.
[HTC EVO 3D] liljoka166:
I talked to a rep today and the info Is false
[HTC EVO 3D] ipagan10:
If your phone is being disconnected by sprint, then the esn is good as there is no outstanding balance on the account nor the phone has been stolen. Flashing is possible, but youll have to flash the phone manually and get a donor phone for the account to activate the other.
[HTC EVO 3D] liljoka166:
i your using a donor phone it shouldn't matter if the esn is clean or not because you are changing the info in the phones
[HTC EVO 3D] ipagan10:
not exactly, you see the donor phone will be the one that will be activated, but you need a clean esn to flash the phone properly to another carrier otherwise, the phone will be flaged, once the phone is flashed, you just need to update the info of your account with the phone you wish to use and wala, its done and you have vzw service on a sprint phone.

not really....if you find the communication, wifi, BT and all that working....no need to worry....also check your battery consumption....if everything is fine...dont worry

I think normally DM 1.6.5 has four RILs...V30A, V30B, V30B german, V28 (maybe I am wrong...please check) and you can select it from AROMA.

If the BB is not working or having issues with your current BB,....just use smart flash and change your BB. not a big deal my friend.\\

Hey Guys,

Just thought id mention over here that I posted a complete guide to getting the most out of our tablet in the development section. If you have been hesitant about tweaking or modding this guide was meant for you. I include very detailed instructions that are meant for inexperienced users. If you have never been over to the development section i suggest heading over there. Here is a link to my thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2232715

The guide is really simple and I have had incredible results since implementing these tweaks. I tried to compile as many useful tweaks into one complete guide that is really easy to follow. I explain everything thoroughly and include links to posts and articles that explain everything from unlocking and installing TWRP, to kernel tweaks and low level mods. Its a collection of solid resources from many people, plus a lot of hardwork, research, tweaking, modding, and testing done by myself.

Happy tweaking,

[HTC Rezound] ozo012:
Hey all,

Since it seems there are a decent amount of users who have moved onto the Note 2 as their next device from the Rezound I had a few questions as I am looking to obtain one as well.

First, how do the Radios in the Note 2 compare to the Rezound? I'm currently on a AOSP 4.2.2 based ROM so I'm able to see a more accurate representation of reception compared to Sense and Touchwiz which both over exaggerate signal strength.

Second, I have small hands (I'm 5'4) and I was wondering what your thoughts were on the size differences and how long it took you to get used to the Note 2. I have primarily been able to use the Rezound with one hand but I realize that probably won't be the case with the Note 2.

Third, how spoiled did you feel you were by the Rezound's screen or is the Note 2 up to the task?

Anything else to take note of? :D

Note: I did use the search feature because I felt like there was a somewhat recent thread about this but I came up empty.

Thanks,

Chris
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Radios seem about the same to me. Wifi may be a bit better. As for the size, I was worried it was going to be too big for me, but, as it's said occasionally on the N2 forums, it gets small fast. I really couldn't imagine going to a smaller device now, and it has somewhat quelled my lust for a tablet as well.

As for the screen...I'm an AMOLED hater. The screen on the Note does look good, is easy on power, and there is plenty of resolution (it's full 16:9 720p), but it's severely oversaturated to my eyes. The colors are unnaturally bright to the point that they don't really look like the colors they're supposed to. Most people like that about it...I don't. Luckily, you can change the display mode through the settings, and you can also install a kernel with display tuning capabilities, so if you don't like that aspect, you can control it. The other aspect of AMOLED that I don't like is that OLED technologies in general have questionable longevity, and AMOLED is not immune. Unlike LCD, OLED pixel slowly dim with use. That can lead to a burn-in type effect. Give me SLCD over AMOLED any day.

I can't say anything bad about any aspect of the phone other than the screen, and even then, the screen isn't bad per se, it just has some caveats that are worth knowing about going in.
[HTC Rezound] ozo012:
Good to know that it has quenched your interest in a tablet, I'm now afraid that my Nexus 7 will get even less use than it has been getting recently. I will definitely check out the screen, I read Anandtech's review of the Note 2 on my commute home and will probably take another look later too.
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
small girls does not seem to have no problem using note 2 so it should be ok for you.

nexus 7 and note 2 is close in size. maybe you won't feel the need to carry a 7 inch tablet? you should have bought 10 inch tablet.
