I am not too smart, so forgive my question: What would this service buy us that the XpressMail (Cingular service programmed by Seven) doesn't?

sorry for my ignorance...

BBConnect

Raptor,

The BBConnect .cab is actually in the BlueAngel folder of our FTP site.

i'll look for it but it should be here ...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
difensore: The one that was on the FTP site was a german build for TMobile. You stated you were using a version in Americal on Cingular's Network.

Those of us that use RIM devices (aka Blackberry Interactive Pagers) generally use tham as they are required by our companies, are instant (push), and have other features. There is no need foor a desktop client to be running on a PC, and are much more reliable and stable. The Xpress Mail service is very unreliable, pull, and has to be reset too often on the device and the desktop PC.

Can't get to to make a PIN. I have Cingular. I have Goodlink and would like to try Blackberry.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
You have to already have a Blackberry service and device (7290 and up from what I understand)

You configure your blackberry device in the desktop software (provided by rim) this configures your secure pin

You then install the o2 software to configure your PPC

That's what I understand, I had a rim 950 but not blackberry, I am upgrading to blackberry service to try this. Many people I have talked to have half of the puzzle (7290 but no PPC or PPC and no BES services). Once someone get's this working successfully please detail the steps or correct the ones above.

"CURRENTLY"--- you have to have the BB HW (ie: 7290) even though you will put it in a drrawer after getting this to work.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Freak:
Yes I have BB 7100G but the blackberry software on the ppc does not create a pin it comes on with a pin of 0.

:(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
When you connect your BB device to the cradle, and set it to forwared your eMail to your device, it asks you to move the mouse around to create a unique pin.

This I have confirmed.

Then install the BBConnect SW, on the PC, and PPC.

Put the PPC in the cradle and verify it is connected

Then instead of the normal BB software, launch the BBConnect desktop client and you will still see the pin. Hit the connect button at that time.

Please let me know the results.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] saldous:
Moving the mouse around is not the pin, it is an encryption key isn't it?

Hi Guys

I have a blackberry, a blackberry service, a BES on a corporate Exchange system, a QTek 9090 and the files from the FTP. I have installed the exe and it seems to be a "BBConfig XDA II" I also have a program on my machine called ActiveSync Blackberry Configuration

What do I do with the CAB files?

Thank you
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
You copy the cab file to your PPC device using Active Synch or SD card etc...

You then tap the cab file with your stylus from you rPPC device. It will install the app and delete the cab file.

Reboot just to make sure

Then follow the instructions a few messages up on configuring your BB device first, then PPC.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sting0r:
Just found the files, this is great! Is there any limitations with the version of the System Rom, Extended Rom or Radio Rom? I read that Tmobile UK has to use a Radio Rom of 1.00 and Germany needs to use 1.60. Can anyone confirms if this works with the lastt 1.40 System Rom and Phone rom of 1.14? Any other experiences with the installation would be greatly appreciated. I am going to be using it on a Cingluar SX66 unlocked on Tmobile USA.

Lastly, is there a problem with once you get the pin generated getting it to be recongized by BlackBerry Servers? I saw a thread where someone was saying Blackberry doesn't support Blackberry connect in the US and the PIN number that gets generated won't automatically work unless you know a Tier 3 Blackberry support technician who is willing to add it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bormasina:
I just bought a 32GB Nexus 7 2 Gen and i can't get to home screen without force closed apps. It seems like the hardware is broken on mine, but before i head over to bestbuy for replacement i thought it could be a bad flash on ASUS part. As soon as i connect to wifi, it says that there is update, it restarts, but i get the yellow triangle thingie with error written below it. I thought i could try to flash the factory image, but i can't find it. I'm pretty sure it should be online, but i could be wrong. So, does somebody have the link with the factory image of the newest Nexus 7?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] lupin_iii:
As of right now, google has not made the factory image available.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] michaelg1030:
Take it back. Sure you may be able to fix it now and its probably just software related, but that's not a good sign and could just set you up for future issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Deathman20:
Hmmm... connected mine to wifi first, and had 2 updates. A small one right after the connection to wifi, and a larger 51Meg after getting the tablet somewhat setup.

Maybe boot into recovery and do a factory reset?

That is what i thought. I'm browsing from corporate network, so i thought the corporate network is playing tricks on me ...
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bormasina:
That is what i'm afraid of, i got lazy and thought i could fix it my self if it is only bad flash ... But, you are right, batter safe than sorry ... Funny, i couldn't even play with it ...

Well, i can't get into recovery either ... Hmm
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bormasina:
Well, i'll take that back, i can get into recovery since it fails right after the first update (inside the recovery), so when i press volume up i see that the small update is messed up ...

I forgot that i need to press volume up, not "power + volume up" ... So, BestBuy here i come ...

For Android those animations are implemented using xml files, so they cannot be created using any software, but they have to created like any code does.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] me:
There are some external stereo microphones for IOS that plug into the headphone jack rather than the dock connector. For instance, the IK Multimedia iRig MIC Cast.

They claim that they work on Android as well.

Well, they may work, but do they provide better sound quality than the internal phone microphone, turning it into a decent digital recorder for music, for example? (with the right software, of course).

My question isn't really whether those microphones are better quality than the internal microphones, as I assume they are. But does the headphone jack on Android phones (mine is the Galaxy S4) really provide the input capability for better quality sound, including in stereo?

Of course that jack can transfer sound in both directions, headset and microphone, as it is a phone. For output, the phone provides quality stereo music output to headphones, as modern phones are also music players. However, the microphones on phone stereo headsets are generally low quality monaural microphones only suitable for phone calls, usually not better than the internal microphone, might be worse.

So the question is--is the input function of that jack capable of providing quality stereo input, if one has a quality stereo microphone attached? (No matter how good quality the microphone is, if that jack really cannot transmit that quality sound, but reduces it to a very low resolution and frequency-reduced monaural sound, no point at all in attaching such a microphone.

Anyone know about the input capabilities of the headphone jacks on Android phones. (If it varies from phone to phone, then how about mine, the Galaxy S4?)

Thanks in advance for your input.

Anyone?

And that might be part of the reason why Google hasn't released support for this yet. They want apps to add native support instead of relying on mirroring. For most apps this makes more sense. I don't need my Netflix playing on my tablet and my TV, it frees up resources on the tablet to do something else. Now I definitely want a way to stream local media but even then just mirroring the display seems like kind of a waste.
