Thanks for the repliies, I am not to worried about the cost, Orange reckon due to my history with them it could well be free.

It just worries me that it has to be opened before you can see who is calling, it is a shame there wasnt a button to answer or dial on the front.

Also these caller ID headsets, how do they work? do they just say the number to you or am I getting the totally wrong end of the stick?

Also any ideas on price of these headsets?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] inspectorgadjet:
I have the i-mate JasJar version of the Universal, and I am very very very impressed with it. It's a very well rounded device, and sure, there are a few quirks, but they are very minor in my opinion.

You can definitely answer and hang up the phone without opening it. There are two buttons on the side for answer and hang up, so you don't actually need to open the phone to answer. Also, if you use an application like voice command, your phone will tell you who is calling.

I use the wifi at home and I don't have any problems with it. I do wish they would have put in 802.11g, but hey, it's only for internet, so you don't really need that kind of speed just yet.

As for the bluetooth headsets, some of them support the caller ID feature via a little screen on the headset. I have heard different people say that their headset displays only the number, but others have said they display name too. I think the Jabra BT 800 is one that displays only the number with the JasJar, and I think I have heard that the SonyEricsson headsets display the name too. I am not 100% sure though.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mikeycrawford:
Headsets

Can you clarify whether or not you can voice dial from a bluetooth headset WITHOUT first opening up the phone. I have seen some people say yes to this questions, and others say no.

I am happy from what I have read so far that you can ANSWER a call via bluetooth headset without opening up the EXEC, but what I really need to know is about MAKING a call via the bluetooth headset without opening the EXEC.

Thanks in advance

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Arthedes:
After returning my previous nexus 7 because of a dead pixel, I'm happy to confirm my new new nexus 7 is working perfectly! No GPS problems, no dead pixels, no super weird touchscreen problems.

But here's a thing I'm uncertain about. I can confirm this happened on both JSSR66N and JSS15R. Although I don't have phantom touches, and my screen supports 10 finger multi touch, there's a little bit of interference when using two fingers: when I hold one finger steady and slowly move another finger so that one of the axles is aligned, the screen registers movement in that same axle on the non moving finger as well. Usually It jumps about 10 pixels.

This results in unsmooth aiming when playing fps games, or other 2-thumb games. It's not game breaking or anything, its just noticeable.

I was wondering if this is normal for capacitive touchscreens, if its just a software bug, or maybe it is indeed a hardware issue in MY tablet, in which case it can be returned, since I'm on day 3 of my 14 day return period.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
It isn't normal for touchscreens in general.

However on the Nexus 7 2013, many units will exhibit this behavior. If you don't have any other issues, I wouldn't return it for what you are describing. There are far worse issues you might encounter.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nemesis_00:
This behaviour is pretty normal for touchscreen when crossing axis with two fingers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Arthedes:
Your answers seem a bit contradicting. Could one elaborate?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] plznote:
The nexus 7 just has a batch of issues. That is not normal, try it out on a different device like a Nexus 4, HTC One or any other device that doesn't have a crop of issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bokoy:
You are not talking much about this in the forum, i don't know if people don't realise about it or just don't have it but there's a big issue with the grounding of many devices. In a Spanish forum we have a big post open about it, one is back from asus and mine is going tomorrow. Mine works well, not perfect, in my hands but over a table works bad, it changes a lot. I guess it works as the creator from the thread says.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tni.andro:
I haven't seen a capacitive touch screen that doesn't have this issue to some extend. The touch screen uses a line grid to sense capacitance; so if you have two fingers at the same line-pair, they will influence each others capacitance reading.

My N7 touchscreen definitely works better than my Galaxy i9000 one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bokoy:
Multitouch in my 2 years old and much more used samsung galaxy s2 works much much much better than the n7. One and multi as far as the s2 can go
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
It is the job of the DSP to filter out noise and produce smooth data.

There is absolutely no jitter on my GS2.

Apple iPhone 5 also has no jitter.

Therefore I make the claim that the jitter is not "normal" for touchscreens in general, but for the N7 2013, many units exhibit this behavior, so it isn't worth trying to get a new one, because there are worse things than minor jitter.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tni.andro:
So you are saying, if you take something like 'Yet Another MultiTouch Test' that displays coordinates and a cross; put one finger on the screen and then cross the displayed lines with a second finger that the first pos doesn't move at all?

As long as I don't cross those lines there is no movement/jitter for the first finger.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
On 9 out of 10 Nexus 7 2013 I tried there is movement. On my GS2 there is no movement, nor was there movement on the iPhone 5.

I don't need to use YAMTT, the jitter is immediately apparent when doing rotations in Google Maps. The axis cross when rotating clockwise, counterclockwise.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bokoy:
+1
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tni.andro:
That's not a challenging test - my N7 has no problem with that. But maybe, I have have one of the better ones...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
You are welcome to your opinion.

It is very challenging for 9 of 10 N7 2013 I tested. I have never seen jitter in YAMTT that was not also reflected in Google Maps.

On N7 I turn on developer options show touches and show pointer location which is actually more direct than YAMTT because it is at the OS level.

I have run YAMTT on three units, but the reason I don't run YAMTT on all units is because some of the units I test do not have access to Internet to download it, while developer options and Google Maps are on every unit.

Just to satisfy you, I installed YAMTT on my GS2 and it is rock solid with

2 finger overlap, pinch-zoom

one finger static, the other sliding to overlap

two finger rotating and overlapping clockwise, counterclockwise

two finger overlap sliding down the screen

It is a shame that folks have gotten so used to buggy touchscreens that they are convincing themselves it is normal.

I know people who think jumpy Google maps is normal because they think it is downloading data. When they see maps on my phone, they are amazed how smooth it is on 2.5yr old technology.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bokoy:
I can just agree with sfhub, many people just agree with the problem an see it normal as some people said in this and other posts related. Your money doesn't have problems, why would you accept a faulty device? It's not just my GS2, even the touch screen of my galaxty 3 (low end from samsung) performs better than this, less points but all are still working today and that's a 4 years old 2.2 froyo (back up phonein case of xtreme necesity).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Arthedes:
conclusion

So, in conclusion, the touchscreen's behaviour is not normal for touchscreens in general, but it is very common among nexus 7's.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
From my experience experimenting with many units, that is accurate.

If your jitter progressed to ghost taps, stuck taps, spasdic multi-touch, dead spots/bands, then I'd start to worry.

Minor jitter, don't worry about it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nemesis_00:
There are 2 separate issues. Jitter issue, which is not OK and should not happen. However a slight shift in position when using 2 fingers, one static and the other crossing the same axis, the static finger always has a slight shift. That is normal for many touch screens.

So "Network 0" means you;re locked with no unlocking attempts left.

But here is says that "Network 0" means you are unlocked..

So - any experts - which is it... does all zeros mean completely unlocked or locked with no attempts left?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Xenoism:
Hello Community,

I'm here today to get some feedback in regards to a solid rom/kernel match up for excellent battery life.

I know, I know...I've answered many threads just like this with the response "Not all hardware is created equally" and "testing is the best way to determine what's best for your device".

I've decided however that this might be the best route to take, since the device is my girlfriends, not my own. If the device was mine, I could test different roms and kernels throughout the day in order to determine the best for the device...but since it's my girlfriend, this isn't really possible. She needs her device on her for work....soooo, I am here asking for advice.

What would you guys suggest? What works best for you? Maybe it will also work best for me ^^

Thank you

There is no BEST and yet they are all the BEST. Members are expected to research and read through the ROM threads before altering their $700 device.

Go to the first link, follow the instructions there and if all goes well, you'll have a rooted Galaxy Player. Once done, you have to flash cm9 in your Galaxy player before upgrading to 4.3. Click the link, go to page 8, there's a step by step instruction that the ROM Dev wrote for someone who wants to go from 2.3.6 to 4++. And I'm not sure what's a DAB+ radio is but when I flash a custom ROM, the default radio is missing afterwards. Hope that helps.

Yes how strange. If someone calls me the phone rings, but if pick up the call or i move the volume control up and down i hear nothing. No sound enabled applications make any sound. If i put the wired hands free kit in it still works fine (phone calls and applications). At a gues i'd say the chip powering the internal speaker has died, but then how does the ring get played?

I used to have a simlar problem with my Himalaya in that after using the wired hands free there was no sound. This turned out to be the switch in the jack socket not working properly.

Hi, That would explain it you know. When the hands free kit is plugged in and the phone rings, the main phone still plays the ring tone, but all other audio goes via the wired hands free kit.

I have had the same problem for a week now and it's driving me up the wall. I have been plugging and unplugging the head phones to no avail. I have been in contact with O2 Technical Support, Asia Pacific Region (where the device was purchased) but all their reset-suggestions have failed thus far. (There is something about a Cab File that I haven't tried yet.) What surprises me is the fact that I have only used this device for 6 months ...I don't want to go back to my old mobile but I love my O2!! and this incident makes me want to cry as there is no O2 support in North America (where I reside)! I feel so alone and lost with my device!!

No sound output

Hi Upcityhighroller,

Its a hardware fault so no amount of resetting is evey going to fix it sorry. The socket where the headphones plug is has broken, telling the phone that the headphones are constantly plugged in, even when they are not. the only solution is to fix the headphone socket, or just live with a phone where you will always have to use a headset.

My headphone socket broken within a month of getting the phone, but i think i may have dropped the phone and the headphones lead caught it (i think this may have broken it).

My solution was to exchange the unit with a new one.

I hope this helps?

sound/speaker issue with O2 Xda II mini

Hey Futurity - thanks for the reply.

Another contributor on this forum had the same problem and suggested tapping the device against my palm. I gave it a try and it worked!! HOWEVER, now my power button isn't working. ARGH!! At the moment, I have the buttons UNLOCKED so it can be turned on by any of the buttons and have it set so it turns itself off after 2 mins of inactivity - but that doesn't solve the problem. I have contacted O2 about this again and although I hope that they would be willing to replace the device for me, I am afraid that it will take an extraordinarily inconvienient amount of time, make me pay the courier fee, and I will be left with no phone to use! I wouldn't be as worry if there was an O2 office here in my city. No matter how I LOVE learning about new gadget/tech toys, It is times like these when I miss my past simple existence with my Nokia 6100 and Moleskin notebook.

From scrolling through this forum, it seems as though many have experienced the sound output problem with the headphone socket. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the makers of the Magician suppose to test these things out vigoursly??

Many thanks!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] futurity:
To be honest a lot of these types of problems are only reported after the device has been released due to everyday use. I mean its hard to test all the possible strains that a headset socket would go under. Saying this, a Sony Erricson head set plug would just pop off and would not damage the socket as there are just contacts and no socket.

For me, dropping the phone and the head phone lead being the only thing that stopped it from smashing on the floor put a lot of strain on the socket. I preferred this to the phone being totally broken. Thanksfully my Orange insurance means that i had next day replacement. I phoned before 5pm and got it in the morning the following day.

I think the makes expect everyone to use bluetooth instead of the wired headset, so the socket doesn't need to be so robust. I only use the wired headset because because the voice dial doesn't work through the bluetooth headset and i can't listen to MP3s through it. I still think its a great device and seems to be the must have PDA this Xmas.
