Same in France at Micromania, 209.99€ the 32gb wifi tablet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] LakersDroid:
Nice!! Glad some of you took advantage of the opportunity to save money!! $200 for the nexus 7 FHD 32GB is a great deal. I wouldn't have passed up on it if I didn't already have a Nexus 7. :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] charesa39:
My 32GB just arrived today! Looks like I'll be jumping back and forth now between these forums and the Nexus 5 forums. Can finally put my HP TouchPad to rest, although it has served me well running CM10.1.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] gotimekill:
Great deal
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] pvtjoker42:
Picked my n7 32gb up from microcenter today.. Been waiting so long for it to go on sale for the right price.. :)

I went to Staples and got them to price match. ☺
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RKnight1983:
I used this same offer to buy a 32GB from Best Buy last night because they price matched it for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jadmr:
Is this the 2013 model?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] just lou:
Yes...
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Jhall8:
Thanks for the info! Best Buy matched this price, saving me $50.

Sent from my RAZR Maxx HD
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] C5Longhorn:
I got the same deal also from Staples back in November. You can't beat it.

Rick
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] frankws:
Those of you that got the deal of price match and then $30 off at staples are lucky because according to the Staples price match they were suppose to deduct the $30 from the $269 price and then price match. Here is their policy on that, taken from their web site.

If you buy an item from us for $159 and you have a $30 coupon, the net price is $129. If another company’s price is $125, your price match would be $4 off our net price of $129. Dollars-off coupons will be proportionally deducted from the prices of items in your order.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] just lou:
Yeah. They wouldn't deduct any coupons when I pricematched at the store.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] LakersDroid:
No problem dude, just saw the sale so I thought it could help people save money if they haven't already got a N7FHD and want to purchase while it's on sale. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] shook187:
I guess I'm one of the few lucky ones that got a 32 GB for $169.99
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] C5Longhorn:
You are correct. The manager said that they should not discount that way but he would honor it since the clerk already said he would match that offer.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jo0b4k4:
Too bad it's only the wifi only version :/

I wanted to install an acrobat reader, I did a search for acrobat readers and came across the application on the adobe site. I downloaded the file adberdr20_ppc_enu.exe from the adobe site. However when I try to install the application, I get the message

'adberdr20_ppc_en

' is not a valid Pocket PC application

Can you guys please help
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda_guy:
now i understand what the difference betweeen a .cab and .exe installation is.

correct me if i am wrong. i clicked on the .exe file while it was on my pc and my xda was connected to the pc using activesyns. and the reader installed itself.

i guess thre are some .exe files that the xda exec can install and some which have to be installed through activesync
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
.exe == executable file

but only on the platform it was compiled for

when you get programs for your device

it's most often as exe files you have to run on your pc

then it copy the cab file for your pda cpu normaly ARM

and run it so it unpack the pda exe files to the dir

the exe file is a selfextrating zip file normaly

and have cab files for arm, mips and other pda cpu's in it
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] tweakradje:
Did you try the alternative one: PocketXpdf

http://pocketxpdf.sourceforge.net/

Cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda_guy:
is pocketxpdf better than acrobat reader?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] nasoor:
thank U tweakradje for the program

its a free one BUT still having bugs and errors and under development

the Acrobat Reader is a famous and rigid program for viewing PDF files and I do strongly recommend to install it

Thank U all
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dstarfire:
The small memory size is getting rather annoying, and since SSD's are fast enough to perform like (very) slow memory, I'd like to set up a swap partition on my YP-G70 to function as some virtual memory.

I've found this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1659231 and I wondered if it will work with the YP-G70 since I know our system uses some weird drive partitioning scheme.

Also, how badly will this shorten the devices lifespan. (Well, technically lifespan of the internal drive, but since that's non-replacable ...)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
The guide implies an external SD card.. Doesn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dstarfire:
Yeah, wasn't really paying attention to that part. I'm used to GB style thinkign where everything for the system has to be on the internal card.

But yeah, I'd definitely put it on an external card, if it will work.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
Well, In that case the "weird" partitioning should not affect it at all.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lildhiel08:
its theres a way to swap internal to external sd in 4.4. like in the 4.3?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] TheKryptonite:
Apparently, it's possible, but I haven't seen anything swapping "tricks" for the Galaxy Player (or many other devices, for that matter). You can, however, use Directory Bind, this script, or Root External 2 Internal SD.

so this kernel is 4.4 Kit kat For HTC Sense.. I can build the same sources for a GPE ROM and fully intend to after some other work is done

this is not full beastmode style kernel YET

I go ahead and mod it out

Downloading now!! Can I use philz latest recovery for this or has to be twrp beta

And the xda direct downloads are nice and quick
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
TWRP .6 Beta Only

Have not tried with PhilZ, but I can confrim that regular CWM fails and so does any other Twrp version.
[HTC Droid DNA] Ndaoud360:
What doesn't work on the rom if any? And wow 3 minute download. I like it.
[HTC Droid DNA] hipsh0t:
Wont hurt to try correct? Probably will just fail or not boot into rom.

Any way we can remove the battery percent? And what works/doesn't on this ROM?

Other then that, all should be working...its early to say for sure though.

The battery is in 1% increments.

There is no number or percentage visible.

Make sure you have superuser working.

If not, there is a zip in the Op for it, then it's just a matter of installing the framework and modules correctly and doing FULL reboots in between...

Hi santod040, i installed this ROM, i cannot go into *#*#4636#*#* edit mode via the mobile dialer, any solution here?

I flashed the beta TWRP in preparation to try KitKat at a later date. I was surprised to find it would not reboot the system only back to TWRP not Viper. I am restoring a backup. Has any one else had this happen?

Works fine for me :confused:
[HTC Droid DNA] Steve One:

Not sure if this should be directed [MENTION=1331268]santod040[/MENTION] or [MENTION=1615671]Zarboz[/MENTION] , but what's up with the WiFi driver? I've never had to run WiFi tether in ad-hoc mode while on a sense ROM. Compatibility issue? I'd look myself, but my wife has sort of forbid me from spending hours looking at code.
[HTC Droid DNA] rayjr13:
side note: dialer still provide sip?
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
Wifi should be improved next update.

In the meantime, the built in Hotspot should be working just fine out of the box.

Last I checked though, using the usual wifi tether app on Sense Kitkat was troublesome at best.

That's why I hacked the native one to work without having it in your plan.

Hope that helps a little at least for now.
[HTC Droid DNA] zoujialing:
very nice, it was resolved....BTW, any app can also go into ##3282#? Here the city is testing 4G network, some place the mobile will find and use testing eHPRD mode that still cannot use network.
[HTC Droid DNA] r0nz3y:
Awesome rom, thanks a lot. I only wish pics via mms would would on my global gsm carrier (bell Canada)
[HTC Droid DNA] Zarboz:
Unsure if santod has included HTC One Mini bcm wifi firmwares

that is how we resolved this error in 4.2.2 due to using updated wifi drivers...... but we are using a different wifi driver now it actually using the same wifi driver in the kernel as the HTC M7 uses ... so not too sure about the wifi tether... your error is the same as the 4.2.2 error in wich we needed updated firmware ...

[MENTION=1331268]santod040[/MENTION] are you using the bcm fw from 4.1.2 dna rom or 4.2.2 dna rom?
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
I'll have to check to be sure what I added.

I thought I had the right ones, but maybe not.

I'll double check it though as I have a new build to upload anyhow.

Will make sure its in this next one if not already.
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
Don't known on play store may be searching on google :laugh:
[HTC Droid DNA] bryant23109:
Love this rom will the camara recording fc and no notifications lights be fixed in the update. This rom is awesome thanks guys.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Why one earth would they do that? Shake my head... Every manufacturer seems to insist on needlessly removing features these days...
[HTC Droid DNA] MisterSprinkles:
True, but think of how many "average" users will come across those codes from a quick Google just because they lost data for 10 seconds. Then they try something and screw it up. Then they have to figure it out and fix it. Which costs them money and time.

I absolutely love this ROM.

Santod I cannot thank you enough for this ROM

It's amazingly fast and smooth.

Is this a stable daily driver yet?

I need all of the "standard stuff" working such as voice, 3G, 4G, WiFi, WiFi tether, still and video cameras, bluetooth (to car, computer, etc), Skype, SMS/MMS, Google Voice, Google Maps/Nav. I like the latest greatest look and feel but am totally uninterested in sacrificing functionality or stability.

I've been running this since release.

I can verify everything you mentioned is working for me except video camera. I don't use Skype, so I wont comment on that.

This ROM runs super smooth, right out of the box, on the DNA. I sure it will only get better. Santod has done an exceptional job on this. :good:

My recommendation is give it a try and see for yourself :)

I will look into the vCard support.

Glad to hear the rest is working good for you.

Next update should hopefully resolve any/all remaining issues. :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Droid DNA] rayjr13:
Do I understand correctly that you don't plan to continue developing this ROM in order to not duplicate what is in the Team Blackout Stock 4.4.2 rom?
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
That's not at all what I said. :)

This Rom is getting the same update my Vzw One stock Rom just got.

This was and will continue to be a Global Stock based Kitkat rom.

Was actually the first one to fully support both Cdma and Gsm if I recall, not that it matters.

Not at all duplicating anything.

That happens on the stock build from Verizon too. Honestly I contacted htc and Verizon about it all they said was they had no idea and to use a different sms app. Do I went to Verizon messages. I know what your thinking why would he go there Verizon does everything wrong except putting up cell towers everywhere. Well I have grown to really like this app. It's very smooth and customizable. When I stopped using the stock message app I stopped getting that error.

Hehe now that's how you motivate a dev!!! j/k That just makes it had to choose what to do when I'm ready to go 4.4.2. Honestly I'm just waiting on someone to confirm ISIS works on the rom and then a t6-esque kitkat rom or at least the look (56px stat icons, 5x5 homescreen, smaller fonts, etc.)

I cannot for the life of me get root. Updated SuperSu from Play Store and from OP. Used TWRP .6 Flashed several times and downloaded Rom several times. Thoughts? I'm thinking firmware maybe. Where is latest firmware now?
[HTC Droid DNA] santod040:
Root works out of the box.

If you allow the update from the Play Store that came out yesterday to install, you will have to open it and update the binaries as well.

I advise if you're having issues updating it, then don't.

It should be working as is. You can select for it to not auto update if it's causing you problems.
[HTC Droid DNA] zolazar:
Dunno what finally got it working but I'm good now! Thanks for this ROM!

Does this happen to any one else? When I plug my device in via the USB port to charge it boots to the recovery. Basically when my phone is powered down like completely off I plugged it in and it booted to the recovery by itself, however when its powered on and I plug it in it charges like normal? Is this my hardware? Maybe my USB cable? Anyone try it and let me know if its just me? I usually use wireless charging anyways but I applied a wet screen protector and then decided to keep my phone off and let it dry for the 24 hours and I plugged it in and noticed it doing this. Before this ROM it just charged like normal.

Anyone who is running this ROM please try plugging in the USB into the phone while its powered off and let me know what you get.

Thanks in advance.

My phone went dead. Plugged it on and booted to recovery. Reboot and all is fine
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
So when the phone us powered off on this ROM is it supposed to boot to recovery by itself. I thought it was just supposed to charge the battery and remain off. So I guess its the ROM?

I'll power off before bed and report back. U shouldnt be alarmed about it. U running twrp?

Sounds like a Recovery thing to me...

CWM had a bug where it would do this at one point a while back.

May wanna look into that aspect, as I don't believe it to be rom related.
