Neil

Whilst there are elements of truth in what you say, I think the lesson here is - if you want stability and reliability and don't have the time for patience or the "developers" instinct, then steer clear of cutting edge technology or the latest gasgets combining a variety of technologies.

I could certainly say I'd be guaranteed a more reliable simple and straightforward phone if I used my old nokia 3100. I would probably say a paper notebook would be quicker on occasion than whipping out the old PDA. If I want to do something on Excel, I'd be better advised to wait 'til I get to the office and so on. BUT for a mix of entertainment and a range of features to help me out from time to time, along with the enjoyment of trying out new things, I'd go for Hermes. In 6 months things will have moved on again, many things will have been sorted out for Hermes but some new gadget will be out next season along with a whole new set of issues. You either enjoy this and don't expect things to ever achieve perfection, or you opt out of the technology race. Change it seems to me is now so rapid, many will question whether it's worth buying the latest technolgy cos before it's even on the shelves it'll have been superceded by the next pre-release models. I can see the rate of customer disatisfaction with new technology rising and rising as companies are forced to release things far too early in order not to loose the superfast moving market. Sky digital being a case in point in the UK with thousands of digital boxes being returned as not functioning. Some folks now being on their 5th or 6th digibox already in the space of a couple of months.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your reply. I hear you and I do agree to an extent. The problem I have with it is that it isn't only guys like me who buy these devices. I am somewhere in the middle, between an early adopter and a neophyte. I know lots of guys who are neophytes and have bought these things over the years. They don't come with a geek warning nor do they offer any sort of solution in many cases to the operational problems. The guy who buys a device like this does so because he thinks it will work. It is enough of a challenge to figure out how to use the basic functions. He isn't interested in becoming a technology guru in order to solve the problems.

As I said before, I bought my first handheld a long time ago. (HP 620LX) While the market moves on very quickly, I believe there is still a place for mature technology. The 620 was buggy then and the TyTN is buggy now. What about a device that does the fundamental things well? Perhaps they are all over the place and I bought the wrong one. I still think the screen alignment issue is unforgiveable though.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zahar:
I agree with what Mike said about staying out of the firing line or the cutting edge as he put it. I believe I am more neophyte than most people here, yet I buy into these things for the enjoyment of having to find solutions to the now expected problems with cutting edge all-singing all-dancing devices...or maybe I'm just a masochist? :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I certainly agree with you regarding screen alignment problem, that's unforgivably poor design as is the loose stylus and loose keyboard.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] BRad Barnett:
Uh, no. No, no, no!

Sorry, that's not how it works. Nope! No siree!

You sell a device on the open market, and it had better be reliable, bug free, and within a certain reliability matrix. A lot of devices are falling outside that range, and the manufacturers are finding themselves in court as a result.

For example, Palm is currently in the middle of a class action lawsuit, over the poor build quality of their Treo 600 and 650s.

Caveat emptor? Sure, but only to a point. Every single democracy in the world has some form of judicially established, and in many cases legislatively established, understanding of quality as a requirement.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I know what you are saying but it IS what is happening as you acknowledge (despite the "Sorry, that's not how it works. Nope! No siree!") and indeed there may be quite a few legal cases brought as a result - but note it still carries on so it is the way it works. In fact, I believe things will get worse with the exponentially increasing speed of technological development.

I stand by my advice stay away from the leading edge devices if it's stability you want and I don't think any amount of cases brought in the courts will change this. I wholeheartedly agree with you as regards any hardware issues - Screen alignment, loose this and loose that, but software has always started out buggy and developed and to some extent, at least ,for those here that's part of the challenge - even if I don't say enjoyment!!

I've seen the bluetooth stack shutdown issue on my TyTN too. I'm currently testing the 1.35 TyTN ROM to see if it fixes this problem. In my case it was related to using the bluetooth stack for other purposes (bt keyboard, A2DP). It seemed to me that my car handsfree would work just fine until I used bt for one of the above then I'd see the random bt radio off issue. Sometimes this would even happen while driving after a successful pairing with my car.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djkomic:
Hello

About 12hrs ago, everything on my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone was working perfectly fine.

I was using my camera to record a video when the playblack crashed and the phone suddenly did a restart. When the phone booted back up again, the phone could no longer read the SD Card. I did several restarts and took out the SD Card and put it back in again and still the phone refuses to see the SD Card.

I know the problem ISN'T the SD Card because when I put the SD card into an adapter and plug it into my computer, the computer can read and see everything on the card.

Any one else have this problem and know how to solve it?

My phone isn't rooted or hacked

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolo9393:
-Go to setting/storage and check what is the status for the external SD. May be it is not mounted.

- second check if you get any other SD card to test the phone behavior with it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djkomic:
I tried a 16G SD card and it connected perfectly.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolo9393:
Save your SD card content to your computer and reformat it direct from the phone. If it is successful revert back the data et voilà!

if not Ok it is something wrong with the memory card itself...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartmw:
I have similar problem. Two days ago suddenly I got message SD card unexpected removed. That puzzled me because I didn't touch SD card at all. Turned phone off and on and seemed to be ok since yesterday. I had SD card removed message again and phone doesn't see any card anymore. I tried bunch of SD cards and no luck. Reset my phone, reinstalled firmware and still nothing. Opened even my phone check sim and SD card board connector.

All my SD card tested, formatted on PC. Any ideas?

No, it will most definitely brick your device. However, with some work, you can port its features to another rom that's compatible with z1.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssunstone:
Hi

Picked up my new Tab S 84 just under a week ago and am v pleased with it. Can't believe how things have changed / improved in Android tablets since the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (loved that too!)

Anyway, I use the tablet mostly for work so emails, documents, remote working etc. I noticed that the native email widget is missing despite me having several email accounts setup on the device. is this normal? seems odd given that every Android device I've owned thus far has had this widget and I'd really like to use it.

Also, the tab s has IR built in but where's the app? I also use a galaxy S5 which has both of the above and works fine.

I'm wondering what else is missing!?! had also thought about a reset to see if that helps.

Another thing. I've got the LTE version and the battery life tho ok doesnt give that same 'oooo this is lasting forever' feeling like my old WiFi only Tab 10.1 and ipad 3 despite having very similar standby times. I have not ran any scientific tests tbh here.. but have decided to turn off 'mobile data' as I don't use it a great deal atm. hopefully this will improve things

Any thoughts on the above would be much appreciated.

Thanks

email widget and battery life?

I've also got the Galaxy tab S LTE...

User the WatchOn app for the remote.

I'm having the same problem with battery life and can't understand why there is no email widget! I've got a note 3 and just want the widget on my tab s!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssunstone:
Thanks re WatchOn. Just discovered that this week. :)

I have also discovered the location of the missing widgets.

If you scroll to the left to access the Magazine UI. You can either add an extra page here and add special widgets including s planner and email widgets us other stuff or delete each magazine section by holding ur finger on them and replacing them with a widget or an app.

It's actually quite neat. Got mine looking good atm. Tho I like this I don't know why Samsung removed the option for us to create a traditional widgets for email and S planner etc..seems a bit of a daft move.

As for the battery life.. Ive simply switched off data whilst am not using it. Had a good 4 hour spell on it last night doing some work with only WiFi on. It dropped about 25% which I didn't think was too bad overall.

I'm still monitoring this though.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MkcorB:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEDEVIOUS1:
stock widgets in any launcher...SuperSamsung v2

here u go guys...the new V2 of my SuperSamsung rom which works with all tab s versions includes the ability to use stock widgets in any launcher as well as on the lockscreen (see post #2 in the link below for a screenshot)

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-supersamsung-v1-t2847070

as far as battery life...long story short u want to use apps with as much black as possible which saves major juice versus white pixels. i'm using dolphin browser with a night add-on (renders pages black) for my internet needs since most of the drain comes from the white backgrounds while wondering around on the web ...there have been test done elsewhere online that shows this thing has the worse battery life when it comes to surfing (like 6/7) hours while it has hands down the BEST battery life when it comes to watching movies (around 14/15 hours unbelievably!)

Hi all...

Not sure if anyone else has come across this, but with my 8125, I got into the habit of connecting to my lan via wifi and just leaving wifi on even when I set the 8125 to sleep. Whenever I would bring it out of sleep, the wifi would just connect again. The 8525 refuses to wake up so I end up having to do a soft reset.

Other issues... I had also gotten used to leaving gprs enabled since I have an unlimited data package. Again, with the 8125, everything was great. With the 8525, not so great. When leaving gprs enabled, the connection seems to die even though it still says I'm connected. I can't browse the internet, update Pocketweather, etc. I end up having to disable gprs for a bit and then trying again.

Anyone else have these issues? If so, did you fix and how?

If so then, using a microSD adapter, plug it into an XP machine and run defrag on the card. This solved my problems immediately.

If this doesn't help you need to look at what apps are installed on your card and uninstall if necc.

I have flashed CM11 - M9 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (I9300) freshly, doing factory reset and wiping all the data, then flashed PA Gapps Full Modular version. After booting the phone, was getting a prompt "Google Keyboard has stopped", there after was unable to get the keyboard option at all, during setting up the phone and CM account. Again, wiped, factory reset, clear cache and freshly flashed the CM11 - M9 without flashing PA Gapps this time. Booted the phone, got the setting done, noticed that Gapps are already installed in the phone. And CM stock Camera is missing :(:(

I have been using CM 11 since a long time, but issue arrived when I flashed Gapps 4.4.3 (Google Stock) to get the latest Google Play :o, but my CM camera has been replaced with Google Camera which sucks, thereby I have decided to reflashed my phone with CM11 - M9.
