[Nexus 7 General] PMOttawa:
I have two cases... and I like both for different reasons.

My main case is a leather portfolio style, with the magnets on the cover for auto on and off. It's the standard go to and there are lots around like it. http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=4882380

But my secondary case, which I use for working and productivity was a real find. I bought it off of a recommendation from talkandroid

http://www.talkandroid.com/147462-n...ooks-great-lasts-long-and-costs-little-video/

it was cheap, so I bought it and it works way better than I ever expected in a situation where I need a keyboard. When it's closed it looks great too. You can't really tell from the pictures but the keyboard fits on top of the Nexus 7 to create a kind of hard clamshell for the top of the unit. It's made in a silver plastic with dots that matches perfectly with the tablet.

Unfortunately I have to choose between the cases, I can't use both at once.
[Nexus 7 General] frost_nz:
I also have on of those keyboard covers. They are such great value for money. And the rechargeable battery for keyboard lasts me literally months off a single charge!
[Nexus 7 General] Droid9:
I would get a Surface Pro... if it wasn't so expensive.

Go get a surface. Someone had to buy one eventually..

Don't expect much thou... There are no apps, it's a battery hog, chock full of manufacturing problems, it won't run windows apps (despite the branding).
[Nexus 7 General] chismay:
surface sucks.

done:victory:
[Nexus 7 General] issak42:
I've heard bad things about surface too, like build quality and that the touch screen isn't so good. About apps, you can pay a visit to windows market place yourself to see.

I'd suggest another option, one of those hybrid tablet/laptops running x86 windows 8.

At the very least, you can run bluestacks or virtual android on it, and have a fully functional PC which transforms into android if you need it.

Of course it's a bit more expensive, but it's not like they are giving surfaces away for free.

I've been getting bored with android too, but that's the phone, I'm keeping my N7 forever :D

I might get a Lumia instead of my Xperia though.
[Nexus 7 General] Macmee:
I really want(ed) a Windows 8 tablet, too.

My problem is that there doesn't seem to be many good x86 ones. There's some meh-priced RT tablets but Windows RT is immensely more limited.

I've completely held off from getting a Windows x86 tablet because every damned one I try out in Future Shop and Best Buy with the Atom are slow, sluggish, freeze often and just seem laggy as hell.

I'm avoiding them all for now, and eyeballing Acer's upcoming 8 inch x86 Windows tablet which may be cheaper and has a small form factor like my N7.
[Nexus 7 General] armada786:
I'm personally waiting a year or two for them to smooth things out. The hardware is too overpriced for what you get and having legacy x86 applications isn't that great when they're not meant for touch. Windows RT is also a joke unless they let devs compile for the desktop. They're totally cool though but not good enough for me.

Hopefully Android x86 will also mature by then so I don't have to give up the ecosystem.
[Nexus 7 General] tobiascuypers:
Go for the surface, I hate windows, but the surfaces are amazing. I would get one if I didnt already have 4 android devices, and everything hooked up to Google.
[Nexus 7 General] mrazndead:
Well after looking at the windows marketplace, I decided its much to early to buy a windows tablet, there are hardly any apps for it. Good ones, which sucks balls. The tablet itself is nice build, but the os is handicapped and hardly any developer support, if it can run blue stacks well that would be cool. No windows rt tablet for me.
[Nexus 7 General] :
played with a surface rt when i first got my nexus 7 and the guy wanted to trade for my tab,but, i did the smartest thing....deny the offer.with the rt heavier and bigger than pocket size of an n7, you really dont get better than android. c'mon windows vs a linux tab? id say less headaches with android. id stay with the tab,and if you have a laptop/desktop then run W8 from there. thats my opinion. the surface is nice but remember you cant modify or customize like android/linux.

Is there a software that gives you a list of all installed programs on you XDA II?

I think I saw something like this somewhere in the forum, but now I don't find it.

Thanks for the answer.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rudegar:
like remove programs in settings->systems ?

or the pc activesync tools->add/remove programs ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Urosh:
I'd like to have a txt file that give you all the installed programs.

Your solution can be interesting, but I saw also that there is a little software that do it. But I can't remember which one it is.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rudegar:
well since they are all in the registry then it would not be too hard to make such a program maybe if you remembered it's name search would give an url to it
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Urosh:
I found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=9333&highlight=installed+programs

It does something like this.

But now when I have read it carefully it is not exactly what I need.

[Hardware Hacking General] Elite83:
Hi, I am relatively new to digital 'prototyping' so USB protocols and almost everything digital is new to me.

The long and short of my question is, if I plugged a standard USB flash drive into an OTG adapter, and then plugged all that into a micro USB to standard USB (which I doubt actually exists) and plugged that combo into a PC, would I be able to access the flash drive? How exactly do OTG devices VS 'regular' USB devices work?

From the circuit schematics I've studied, it appears that the only difference between a standard USB and OTG interface is a bridge across pins 4 and 5. So how would this affect plugging said OTG device into a PC?
[Hardware Hacking General] n0ve:
Yes. Long as your device supports it. That is my $2 otg adapter...I plug in external HDD...flash drives ...keyboard... Mouse...PlayStation controller..

.tech you can make your own BC the pin config is only diff.
[Hardware Hacking General] Elite83:
So if I directly hardmodded a standard USB flash drive with a micro USB plug, bridging pins 4 and 5 to make the device OTG-ready, if I plugged that now hardmodded flash drive into a micro USB (female) to USB A (male) the PC would still read the drive as a standard flash drive?

This makes sense because apparently on the micro-usb interface, pin 4 is "sense"?
[Hardware Hacking General] n0ve:
Yes .
[Hardware Hacking General] Elite83:
Thank you for your assistance.
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
Yes/no.

The standard (full-size) USB A and B connectors only have 4 contacts and 4 conductors.

The ID pin (#4) is only on USB mini and micro connectors.

You need to signal your cell phone to go into host mode.

That means that the connector plugged directly into the cell phone has to have a grounded pin #4.

Pin #4 is never carried over the cable.

In short, you need an OTG adapter plugged into your cell phone.

Modding other parts of the cable or the USB device you are using won't do anything.

You can (as I have done) take a razor to the connector that plugs into your cell phone,

take the connector apart and solder a wire from pin #4 to ground.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egregious:
Hi,

I bought my SGA from India. I will be in US for 2 months. When I inserted a US SIM in my phone, no network was shown.

Is it because of the difference in frequency bands of GSM in India and USA? But isn't SGA quad-band? (850/900/1800/1900)?

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance..:o

Any solutions?
[HTC One S] RickoT:
Hey Folks,

So I've noticed on several ROMs I've tried as of late that I seem to be randomly losing internet connection. Basically, everything will be fine, phone goes to sleep. When I turn it back on the WiFi signal is full but grey as though it has no internet. Generally, if I turn it off and back on it works, sometimes I need to reboot my phone entirely if it doesn't come back up. I've searched through all the Power Management settings, and I think I have them all set to not manage wifi, or turn it off, or use it in low power mode, etc. But there has to be either something I am missing or a real issue with WiFi drivers or something. has anyone else seen this kind of behavior?

I am having an issue with my mobile internet. Everything will be fine on wifi, but when I leave the wifi area I will have full bars and say I am connect to mobile internet, but I will get no connection error in every app. I have noticed sometimes that if I get an edge signal and try go back to H H+ it happen. It is sporadic and hard to pin point when it happens and what is causing it.

I am s off h boot 1.06 on pacman. Now this has only happened in the last few updates of pacman, and i have been talking to the developer, but it seems like i am the only one having the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[HTC One S] cat2115:
Note: Doing this delete everything on your phone, So backup

oh sorry i can't help cuz i;m not on PAC MAN. Maybe try to re-flash the ROM with a full wipe in twrp-->wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system, & wipe factory reset. Maybe do it 3x. But as u know, this will erase all ur apps. If that still not working, it's better to run US T-Mob JB RUU. This will fix all your issue. Don't worry, u will still be S-off and BL unlock.

If u plan to run RUU, this is what i do and always success:

1. Make sure phone is on USB debugging

2. On cmd, type adb reboot-bootloader

3. Run RUU

4. When finish, do your normal phone setup, then go into Setting-->restore&backup-->Reset Phone and put check mark on Erase Everything

5 when done, do your normal phone setup and turn ON USB debugging

6. On cmd, type adb reboot-bootloader

7. on cmd type: fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img I use twrp v2.3.3.0

8. on cmd tyoe fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img again

9. Your done and flash any ROM u wish and see if the issue go aways.
[HTC One S] RickoT:
Hey folks,

So I've noticed this on several roms, Currently I am using LiquidSmooth 2.3.1. But I have noticed it with the last 5 or 6 roms I've tried. I also tried restoring to the latest RUU, flashing the latest TWRP and going from there. I've even gone as far as getting the latest mutli-radio installer and trying several different radios, but in the end I experience the same kind of issue.

[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
i though it was just me that had this problem

Im on t mobile and since the firmware update I started having this problem no matter what Rom I tried sence and cm, my signal would disappear completly at times and the settings would show service is unavailable next to the radio at times when it was bad even in good coverage areas, any way this is what worked for me

1.- I changed the svn value on the bulid prop from 19 to 1, left the other ones alone (24,6,4)

2.- I made sure the build prop had the fallowing propperty "ro.ril.disable.power.collapse" and the value set to 0

3.-when I see service unavailable I swith airplane mode on and than off

4.-don't forget to thank me if I helped u even just a bit
[HTC One S] Deleted member 4718155:
thanks I think i will try this, but i am noobish and never dealt with a ruu, and don't really know what it is. Is it a file I need? if so where can i dl it?thanks again.
[HTC One S] RickoT:
Well its good to see that other people are having this issue ( I thought for a while it was just an issue with my phone ), I wonder if there is something wrong with the base image that people are using to create these ROMS
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
If the problem happens between midnight and 7 a.m., it's normal. The connection (both 3g and wifi) gets cut after 20 minutes.
[HTC One S] RickoT:
I have never had this happen before on any other phone. Is this something exclusive to the One S? Is there anywhere to disable this?

Also, it happens during the day as well, just not as frequently
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
?

I have never had that problem either in fact its past midnite and check out the screen capture
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Search for htc smartsync and you'll find what I'm tallking about. The connection (3g and wifi) gets cut with the screen off for 20 minutes during night time (midnight - 7 a.m.). This can be disabled but it needs root.

If your problem is not related to night time, forget about this.
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
ok ill check it out

Now check outy latest screen capture
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Actually I had already checked that screenshot but I couldn't get the meaning. lol The connection gets cut

only with the screen off

. As soon as you turn the screen on it reengages both 3g and wifi connection. You can see this happen because as soon as you turn the screen on (after 20 minutes off) there will be no 3g and wifi icon: after 1-2 seconds they'll pop up again.

Am I missing something with your speedtest? Of course it works, you are with the screen on! lol
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
o

Damn your right I can't prove the internet stays on with this, it does stay on do I now this because I have downloaded large files recently like TD10 and some others and the progress doesn't slowdown when the screen is off, how can I prove this?
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Wait for midnight, enable push mail (if not already enabled), wait 20-25 minutes (with screen off) and send an email to yourself from the pc.

If you receive a call or if the screen turns on for any other reason during the 20-25 minutes, start all over again! lol :p

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] killercheung:
if you need :

1. WIFI

2. Keyboard

3. a BLACK PDA PHONE

Then upgrade to IIs.

I won't upgrade to IIs because

1. It's even heavier than II

2. The larger capacity battery don't help much

3. WM2003SE not really as great as you think

4. I don't need WIFI.

5. Why upgrade to a device with the SAME CPU, SAME AMOUNT OF RAM, SAME SIZE, SAME SCREEN ?

I will upgrade to HTC Magician / XDA II Mini / Qtek S100 / T-Mobile MDA Compact / Dopod 818 / Imate Jam / whatever you like ..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Guest:
1) Don't really need WiFi now cause Macau doesn't have WiFi spots at all.

2) Keyboard will help me a lot in replying my e-mails and once Blackberry is available.

3) Not too concern with the color.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Martin3:
Nope

Hi,

Just sold my new MDAIII (same HTC Blue Angel as XDAIIs), and will continue to use MDAII. This is why:

1. The screen on MDAII is dreadful (yellowish, lower contrast, tiny viewing angle, must be used at full brightness (I use MDAII at lowest level) to achieve barely acceptable picture which nullifies the advantage of the higher capacity battery)

2. Wifi will not connect to Wifi networks with hidden SSID (SANDISK sd wifi on MDAII does this without problem (using newest socket driver)- which incidentally also has marginally longer range).

3. Keyboard is much slower to use than on-screen one, not to mention SPB full screen keyboard

4. BT radio has about 20% shorter range than on MDAII (using BTGPS for network access)

5. Needs very frequent resets. Particularily when connecting to different wifi APs and when switching between BT Network access and wifi access(BluetoothGPS works much better on the MDAII)

Given that the industrious contibutors to this site have provided us with screen rotation functionality (SRS) (as well as BT network access), the MDAII is still my choice by a long shot.

BTW 1.7 rom upgrade also offers FAX support.

The only thing that I miss is the "single column" IE browsing mode, but I'm hoping that someone will solve that too.

Cheers,

Martin

I have a Imate PDA2K and I must say it is perfect! I had a P800 before and the things the P800 didnt have was:

Wifi

Keyboard

and these two things make a big difference for me. I have wifi at home and checking email on that is just perfect. Download attachments without worries of GPRS prices. The Keyboard means I can ride a bike and type and email at the same time with one hand where you could not do that on a PDA without a keyboard.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xda-rocks:
I've had an MDAIII for a few weeks now and I can honestly say that I prefer my XDAII - The XDAII was a giant leap from the XDA. The MDAIII is a very small step, has many bugs and a yellow screen - wifi and bluetooth don't work properly and the keyboard is nowhere near as good as my original Nokia communicator. I got my MDAIII for FREE - I would definately not be happy if I paid a lot of money for it. My advice to anyone thinking of 'upgrading' would be to wait for whatever replaces this model. Hopefully the next generation of these phones will be 3G and have faster processors and really get the benefit of being truly portable wireless machines.
