Things to replace Dockingstation

Hello!

Here is a list of goodies I used to connect my Surface RT 8.1 Update 1 in my Office:

D-Link USB Hub DUB-H7

http://www.amazon.co.uk/D-Link-DUB-H7-7xUSB-A-1xUSB-B-Stromversorgung/dp/B0000B0DL7

Accell DVI Adapter to Mini HDMI

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Accell-J132B-002B-DVI-Adapter-Micro-HDMI-Stecker-DVI-D-Buchse/dp/B005PHHO5M

EDIT: Not available at the moment; ordered this one to test it too: http://www.amazon.de/BIGtec-mini-HDMI-Kabel-vergoldet/dp/B00ATE93J6

TrendNET USB to Ethernet Adapter

http://www.amazon.co.uk/TRENDNET-USB-TO-100MBPS-ADAPTER/dp/B00007IFED

(see this Post to get the Adapter working with Win 8.1 RT Update 1 >>> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51919569&postcount=41 )

Mouse and Keyboard are just the usual DELL stuff. Tried different USB Sticks and external HDD; all are working. ;)
[Microsoft Surface] UKseagull:
Can you link to the DVI adapter again? That one goes to the USB hub too. Cheers.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] boultz:
I have just bought an MDA vario in the uk and have noticed that the format of the contacts has changed from my previous phone (spv M500) and now will no longer sync with outlook which is very annoying! is this a problem that can be solved or something i've done wrong or is it a case of changing the ROM which i was considering any way?

Also the fact you can't select multiple people in one go when composing messages is a real pain in the ass as the majority of my txts go out to 5-6 people.

Any help would be much appreciated and i do appologise if this has been covered already.

Thanks in advance

So I saw the dot case in store on the display model, which we have all probably seen, However which the security device on the back side of the display models I was unable to notice this (see pictures) and I did not notice it in any of the reviews.

I really like the concept of the minimal 8bit lock screen which the dot case and further more the option to answer and make calls without opening is a great plus.

That said it's a shame I won't be using the case now that I have it. The lid does not close flush on the back when open which means the right hand must simple hold the phone and case preventing the right thumb from being able to be used to type / navigate on the screen. And if you were to not hold the lid flush against the back your left and can not maintain a firm grip on the phone because the lid is a tpu material which renders it a bit slippery.

This disappoints me because I really like the features it add.

* note to mods our accessories link is not working this is the reason this thread is in general and not /accessories

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
I noticed that too. I'm hoping mine just breaks in to a point where it was like my note flip case
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Karl:
you dont think it will soften up over time?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
This has been mentioned in the Dot View review thread, Others have said it is nearly impossible to type with the cover folded back unless you are really pushing on it.

The case itself does not appear to provide much, if any protection to the back and sides. The Dot View look is cool but with the lack of protection and the flip cover not laying flat, I passed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Same here after playing with it in store. More of a "cheap gimmick" case imo. Looks cool at night to show off to Ur friends but for any protection, day to day use, and the dot dirt it leaves on screen. Obviously not much thought went into this case outside of the "gimmicks."

Maybe if a soft see through cloth was on the inside of the lid so no dot dirt goes on device, lid actually was flexible to bend back and stay there, feel secure when closed, and had more protection then a cheap $5 knock off case, it would be well worth the $30 maybe $40 tops. Watch a cheap Chinese knock off becomes available on eBay in a few months with all these improvements and half the price, lol!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
Lol, not much thought went into this case???? Ok. I think a lot of thought went into this case, and I think they did a excellent job on it! The case, is meant to use while on the go. Like driving, and at work. Hence the reason for the features it carries. It's not meant to text with it. Lol. Just saying. Everyone has their opinions though.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
Not flaming, serious question.... Are you saying that you remove your case when texting or otherwise using your phone?

Imo a if your a case type of person wouldn't u want a case to leave on at all times?

I even like the display when the lid is on, in fact once we have write on the /system I fully intend on making it an optional lock screen when no security it being used.

sent from(:::§:::)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
Ya when I'm at home. I remove any case I may have. I don't personally use cases a lot bro. I'll use one at work because I'm a chef. And my hands get greasy. But for the most part I go bareback.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] russellvone:
[MENTION=3900214]runandhide05[/MENTION]

that's what I'm talking about....give me the sweet ass lock screen without the case!

good luck, awesome idea
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
Ok I could see that... Then the dot case would help you even more cause you can swipe to answer and other tasks without greasing up the phone, makes sense

sent from(:::§:::)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
Really? You take your case off when texting at home? You find that acceptable? :confused:

I guess there is no fear of dropping it when you are "on the go" either?

I guess it's like you said, everyone has their own opinion....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
I take my case off after work period.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
OK, fair enough. We each use our phones/cases differently.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ickedmel:
Run thanks for the the review bro I've been wondering about this case myself. I agree looks cool imho it's a bit silly if you actually fully remove the case for texting I mean seriously lol but everyone does have different uses. I got the incipio case which I'm pretty happy with dot case is a pretty neat feature.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
Let me clear it up a little. Lol. I don't remove my cases to text. Lol. I remove them period, as soon as I hop in my ride after work. I hate cases. Only reason I use one is so I don't get my phone all greasy while at work, I'm a kitchen manager and a chef. Hope that clears up my comments a little.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
Not a problem. I figured I'd either get some people prepared for what to expect or at least save some people a few bucks from buying something they will end up not using cause as of right now I have yet to see any in store and had I had the opportunity to play with it before hand I would not have bought it.

Having said all that if someone still wants it pm me and I'l send you mine,

Be moral if you actually want it let me know if you just want it cause it's free please let someone else have it

sent from(:::§:::)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ickedmel:
Haha yeah that's pretty understandable lol my thoughts were a bit exaggerated hehe
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sgtmedeiros:
I just stick my index finger between the case and the flap and the rest of my fingers on the outside to hold it in place. No problem texting for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
I could actually really use it. My job, the case would b perfect. U wanna sale it?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ihavenolife008:
This. Figured this trick out within the first hour, made it so much easier and more comfortable, not to mention security for if it slips. I love this case if only for it turning on/off when opening or closing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fernando sor:
I agree. Not everyone has the same idea of what a case should be. I normally don't use cases but wanted something minimal that still showed off the beauty of the phone and helped with grasping it. To me it's about protecting the screen while it's in my pocket.

After some practice I've gotten use to using the phone while the case is folded back. It certainly isn't impossible to type.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DangerousDave:
I also agree that everyone has different preferences.I really wondered about buying the DOT case ( why buy such a nicely designed phone then cover it up ??) but I thought I would go ahead and try the DOT case.

It covers the back nicely and does provide some protection to the corners.

To me feel good in the hand when case is closed.

Doesn't add too much bulk and can be placed in pocket easily.

Protects screen while in pocket ( I hate the screen protector films )

I too was a bit put off at first about the way the case opens and folds against the back but after some use I really don't notice it now.

I still kind of dislike covering this phone with a case and might have to consider some sort of belt case so the phone can be seen in all it's glory when I use it. Of course then no protection at all in the event of a drop.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
I hear Ya bro. I only use one while at work. I take it off as soon as I walk out of work. But this case will work perfect for my job.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
Last night, I wrapped rubberbands around the case while it was open to try to break in the material (like how you do with a baseball glove). It seemed to have helped with bending it back... I'll keep them on the case all day today and post the results.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
The only issue with that is if u form it too much it may not close all the way and cause it to not register with the magnetic

sent from(:::§:::)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ebb:
The issue seems to be with the edge of the back shell that bends up against the rubber hinge connecting to the front. There is no glue at that edge, so if it could be nipped back about 1/16 of an inch it might solve the lay flat issue, as well as be more flexible to use as a stand for landscape. If I can find something to use for that (nail clippers? -lol) I'll give it a try. The designers may have wanted it to auto-close, but in doing so they created other functional issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cyberr8der:
I do the same thing and have no problems.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattcooksey1:
This is exactly the reason I love the dot case. I was hesitant at first about the large size of the phone + power button on top, but with the dot case it's a non-issue
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
I'm glad most are enjoying the dot case, hopefully [MENTION=4523921]zounduser[/MENTION] enjoys the one I sent him

Good to see ya finally here with an M8. U dont want that case Z. I played with one in the store. They BLOW
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nelson5280:
Just got mine. I love it. Very cool idea and functional. At first I was having a hard time holding the flap back while texting, but once I figured out how to hold it, it actually improved my ability to text one handed. If you place your index finger on the back of the phone and then the rest of your fingers behind the flap like others had mentioned, you can actually use the flap to hold it tight in your hand. For me, this frees up my pinky finger from having to support the bottom and gives me a little better reach with my thumb. May not be comfortable for everyone, but I love it. Just takes a little getting used to.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bakemcbride21:
Interesting...swyping is no issue at all with the case folded back for me...don't even need to put my index finger between the flip part and back.

I could see it being an issue if you were actually typing one letter at a time..but that's so passe...Lol
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andrewnelson:
I noticed that too. I'm hoping mine just breaks in to a point where it was like my note flip case
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jbarcus81:
Mine won't stay shut... It just flaps around.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
Just want to thank the OP, Zach "runandhide05"!! I got the case today, and it's awesome! Love it! THANKS MY DUDE!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andrewnelson:
that's what I'm talking about....give me the sweet ass lock screen without the case!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sgtmedeiros:
Anybody notice this case is absolutely useless in sunlight
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
I like using it in the sunlight because if I dont have the case on, the aluminum backplate becomes a stove
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sgtmedeiros:
Yeah but you can't see anything on the front
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
I just noticed, if u take the case off, and set the phone on to of it, it thinks the case is on, and works as though it's on. Lol. Kind of cool.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nabbed:
Bought the case, had to return it an hour later.

The case breaks bluetooth voice dialing.

Also, don't you hate people you see, who drive and still stick phone to their ear? Then try to cut you off unknowingly, and don't pay you any money for the stress and saving both of your cars from damage?

Seriously, buy goddamn Motorola Roadster 2 if you don't have BT enabled stereo.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewksparks:
On the latest M5 release, and every nightly before, the phone cannot get a GPS lock if it's on LTE. If I go to the network settings and switch off LTE and use 3G, it gets a location lock. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Note: I'm using the Note 3 for Sprint. No custom Kernel.

Any ideas?

I know this is an old thread, but maybe this will help someone in the future if they Google search (that's how I found this while looking for a solution). This advice worked for me:

Change the 0 to 3. Save and exit.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beto778:
In advance I will like to appologyse for my communications skills as my english is "NOT VERY GOOD LOOKING".

I can 100% comment on a FIX for the GPS signal lost, many of us have been having this issue for the past few releases of 12.1 - 5.1.1 cianogenmod and I believe I finally found the reason.

When the new system updates gets done the update changes automatically the type of connections that you phone will pick up signal from the towers and satellites. When there is not satellites available it does pick up signal from towers and then based on that compute a calculation and makes a faster FIX that takes 14 seconds at its worst.

So based on that principal idea I went inside the bands and type of connections in the test menu that is in (*#*#4636#*#* ) without brackets and noticed that my phone was set to pick up signals only for LTE/GSM.

This is because this two kind of signals are the most common now days but it is wrong especially for Canada that actually has so many towers with 2g, 3g and CDMA type of conections.

I did a test and inside my home was not getting a FIX picking up just 2-3 satellites and not getting a FIX IN LOCATION, but my new not 4 was so QUICK that I decided to give it a better range of connectivity for tower calculation and went ahead and changed the option to WCDMA and LTE wich are the ones I have notice work the best... I put the one that had the most that includes WCDMA/LTE/GSM etc and ever since it works better than my new note 4.

1 - #*#*4636*#*#

2- Phone information

3 - Set prefer network type.

3 - WCDMA/GSM/LTE

4 - get out and reboot.

This should fix it PLEASE REPORT BACK if this works for you let's keep helping everyone.

Hi,

Maybe with this two files can unbrick my phone?
[LG Optimus G Pro] bijandoroudian:
Having looked into it recently, i believe it doesn't exist. U need to keep trying with the kdz files. I've bricked my phone a few times and they were all very difficult to unbrick.

There's been a few difficult new tutorials recently. Sometimes they work.
[LG Optimus G Pro] tomi001:
I also think they don't exist, just for fl240 and e980. You must try it with kdz file.

Try with the support tool select "update recovery" and it will automatically go in download mode
[LG Optimus G Pro] el-reza:
When i do these tell me "no upgrade to fix"
[LG Optimus G Pro] tomi001:
Then look in the general section there are a lot of instructions of unbricking
[LG Optimus G Pro] el-reza:
I think i try all methods but cant nothing.
[LG Optimus G Pro] bijandoroudian:
try this. it worked me last time i bricked my phone. this is for LG G2 but if u put your kdz file it should work. u have to do a bit of different things but all the instructions are there. i know unbricking is a pain in the ass. that's why i stopped fooling around with the phone.

i followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2625044 (don't forget to install drivers)

1) uninstall everything that you installed by now to flash kdz

2) install everything from the guide (follow method 2)

3) when in r&d tool follow instructions from attached photo (download mode works by tha way just press vol + and - and plug the usb...you should hear windows that recognises the device)

this way you avoid battery allerts and every other error

Hello I am going in circles trying to get my phone back up and running. It can only load into twrp or recovery and i have a custom rom i am trying to flash because accidentally erased the whole phone alongside the operating system. Now no matter what i do i try to run adb devices in the command prompt and shows device not found....unsure what to do at this point fasboot devices clearly shows it...any ideaS?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If you can do "fastboot devices" then that means you are either in bootloader or fastboot mode. If that is the case, then "adb devices" would not find your device because it's not in the correct mode to be able to do so. You can access your phone with adb when it's either booted or most recoveries, but fastboot/bootloader mode is only for fastboot commands. Without knowing what phone you have and what update it is / was on, I can't really provide any more direct help. But typically there is a way to reload the OS via fastboot on most devices such as HTCs, Motorolas, and Nexus devices, to name a few.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tommyboy77:
adb devces does not work in clockwork mod either.....what is the easiest way to get this custom rom sent to my internal sd card if the phone wont boot up and os is wiped off the phone? it is an htc one...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
adb should work in CWM... You might have to manually load the driver. Even if every driver works when the phone is booted and all, Windows can still have issues finding the right one in recovery. Check in your device manager. If that doesn't work, then you'll have to see if your recovery supports USB OTG and see if you can load like that. If none of that works, you'll have to reload the OS via RUU and start over with root/recovery/etc.
