lovely little beast

I could further extend this discussion, with a real experience! Take for example last Friday.....

Yes! I am sitting at 8:00 am at the Syntagma square at the center of Athens(Greece), enjoying my cafe under the sunny sky of Athens and also enjoying free 4Mbps WiFi Internet, browsing with my TyTN and PIE a special electronic service that provides me with the press clippings related to my organisation.

Before leaving the cafe, I download news headers to my RSS application to read at the Metro (where there is no steady signal), just to exploit the 10 minutes, on the road to a meeting.

During the meeting, my boss calls for an issue, but my complete office is in my pocket (actually in my TyTN and its 2GB card!). No problem to answer e-mails, browse documents or powerpoints and provide immediate insight on the spot. Everything is always sync'd to my home and office PCs.

After finishing the meeting, and inputting all relevant meeting details and future reminders at a note on my TyTN, my push e-mail sends me an e-mail from my secretary, where she has included all phones/ people that called while I was away. I just copy+paste them to my calendar as tasks and no-one slips....

And the story goes on and on........ The best part (and one that I am the happiest about recently) is that while driving to meetings that are in places I don't know, I just put my TyTN on the car-holder, link it with bluetooth to a BT GPS and drive by the directions that this lady-voice gives me!

I have asked the GPS software to divert me to the closest branch of my bank for some ATM withdrawals, and after that and before entering any new meeting, I just finish a web-banking transaction with my TyTN, paying my electricity bill on the road.

Isn't it a lovely beast?

Regards,

I get a bit annoyed when people, looking at my phone, ask, "What is it?" or, "What does it do?"

Mainly because I really don't know where to start. My nice little story about the awesomness of this device is the following:

In my university class on financial institutions (banks) my group of 5 people was supposed to do a presentation on the financials of our bank. Four groups were presenting that day. Lucky us, we were picked to go last. Once the first group started, we realized that all of us forgot to do an introduction about the bank's history. I looked up Wikipedia on PIE, and wrote down a summary in MS Word on my device. We also realized that one of the Excell sheets I built for calculating fractons had wrong data. Lucky fo me, my TyTN can open and edit those as well. I fixed the problem, then spent a bit of extra time creating line graphs to show trends in various numbers over the years to show in a slideshow presentation, since apparently other people did too. All of this was done just in time, since I attached all these new files to an e-mail and hit send as I was getting up from my seat to go to the front of the class. The e-mail was sent to the teacher's laptop at the front of the class, which was connected to a projector. By the time we waked to the front, the e-mail arrived, we opened it, and were able to do our presentation. So, with the help of PIE/Wikipedia, Word, Excell, and e-mail on the fly (transfering as we are walking across the classroom) our project grade went from what would've been a C, to a perfect A :D

Hoping

Just bought myself the SPV M3100 (Trion etc..). am just hoping afetr a few weeks or couple of months of getting to grips with this peice of art i can enjoy the beauty that this phone is capable off.

p.s.. cant seem to put it down at the moment... and as i work for Orange UK i am currently waiting to go on a special tarrif that allows me 130MB internet download a month for £10. cant wait...

But for now... sorting out little tweaks, bits and bobs.... Patients is the key

You know, in 1995 with my Psion Series 3a I was able to access CompuServe forums and e-mails, also Internet browsing (though there are people who believe that Internet was invited by Bill Gates!)... I had a very powerful word processor and shreadsheets there, lots of other productivity tools, also some games. I was able to write programs directly on that device, very good and useful programs... I had a good income selling them...

It didn't have a color display, so no photos. It had no enough storage space for such purposes either... But its 480x160 grayscale display without any backlight was clearly visible even in twighlight.

The amazing thing it that it had 512 kilobytes (yes, Kilobytes!) of RAM dynamically allocated for internal storage and to run programs. I also had a 4 megabytes flash card in it, and an external 3.5" floppy drive. It powered from two alkaline AA batteries, which I was changing every 2-3 months. It supported true pre-emptive multitasking, of course (not that "kind of" that was in Windows 95 those days!).

It didn't support firmware upgraing, and the firmware was in true ROM. It never required it though. It never required a hard reset during several years of use, and didn't require a software reset for an average user (developers are different, of course!).

I'd also like my current device to run at least a week from two alkaline batteries, have no memory leaks and to be bug-free (at least without really annoying bugs), and to see the screen content without a keypress, and being not afraid to drain the battery to 0 very fast... But it's non-science fiction during over five years already, and, probably, forever!

But what did you say, in general, is a real life for many people during past 10 years and even more, for those who know that Bill Gates is/was never first and best, but he always the last, unfortunatelly. He is great in winning the market, but he's nothing more.

I'd better have my current device Symbian/UIQ based, like my previous one (SE P800), but, unfortunatelly, they've lost this game once again.

I am impressed how powerful Pocket PC are and what they are going to be.

Soon you can run Windows XP from it and run your usual programs on it. Okay if this is an improvement in all points is another thing.

I had an Palm IIIe some years ago. That was nice to do some things. But i had to synchronize it with an extra cable to my PC. Before using an xda there where three devices: mobile phone, mp3 Player and pda. (i am a firefighter so there were 1 to 2 devices more in the time from change to analog to digital alarm, makes 4-5 devices to carry with me.)

I started just this year with an xda mini s and had all together in one device and even more (excepting the last two devices ;-) but i heard from people using sms alarm... ^^).

Its getting more and more like my home PC. Its amazing. I like it.

Okay there are bugs. But I can handle them. Maybe most wouldn't exist any more if the providers would release the newest AKU a bit earlier. I read somewhere feature Versions of WM have WindowsUpdate. An direct Update for the OS would be nice.

Before I changed from mini s to trion I read some really bad news about this device. And it sounded more worse than it actually is. The reason for this is maybe, that i am working with computers for years and i can handle many computer problems. If there is a problem an automated reaction follows solving it in some way. And in the last time i see more and more people with another background using such devices. From that point of view there where mobilephones with simple functions working everytime. And now they have a mini pc with problems like big pcs ;-)

I just switched from a Moto X to the LG G3. First, the screen is fabulous. After that I am losing interest quickly (bloatware galore).

I just spent the better part of an hour troubleshooting why I couldn't edit my existing Google contacts on the phone. Turns out you have to enable displaying of the local "Phone"calendar in the Calendar app. My best guess as to why is because for some reason the phone wants to save Birthday events to the phone calendar. There really is no reason for that.

My current issue. For one reason or another I have nicknames in some of my contacts. I use these nicknames (Such as when I tell Google Now to "Call my Wife") it adds the nickname. I am a little OCD about my contacts so it absolutely kills me that it now moved my wife down to the bottom and filed her under Wife. I see the options to Sort and Display by first or last but I am not finding the option to not display nicknames.

Anybody know of a solution? Thanks in advance.

Same problem here - It's driven me nuts - I cannot figure out how to get rid of the Nicknames - Interestingly as an android flashing addict - I have not had this problem "EVER" - I want my nicknames - just not on the phone.
[AT&T LG G3] jl337:
Update on this issue?

Does anyone have any updates on this issue? I just switched from a S4 to the G3 and I really dislike this feature. How can I make it so it doesn't display nicknames?
[AT&T LG G3] Rbennett8994:
Flash a custom rom
[AT&T LG G3] dmalone:
Well that was helpful. Why even comment?

As the OP, no I never did find a way around this. I dropped nicknames and am hoping it gets fixed in Lollipop.
[AT&T LG G3] badrsj:
Well folks I fixed it by deleting the annoying contacts and remaking them again with less love
[AT&T LG G3] dmalone:
You shouldn't have to delete the contact completely. You can just edit the existing one and clear the nickname.
[AT&T LG G3] Rbennett8994:
I comment because I had the same problem and couldn't find an answer. after flashing most any custom rom I haven't had the issue and I have not changed my contacts. I'm on ROM 855 minus 5 and contacts work as they should.

Hi all,

I'm in a trouble, i tried to flash TWRP without uncheck the "Update recovery with system updates" option (ik, silly error).. now i'm stuck in boot animation and no recovery :(.

Any help please?.. I'm guessing now only i can do something in fastboot ?

Thanks in advance
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
So you can't boot into the OS at all? Simply flashing a recovery shouldn't cause that, was there anything else you did?

So I will be the first to bite. I have the Dot View case and since I have both the android and wiindows M8's I figured I would share what I like and don't like. Well its easy windows is exactly the same expect there is a few more notifications and windows does not have any themes. Themes would be cool but I don't see a way for them to update the app so Idk if we will get them lol. Anyone else have any thoughts

Could you Share your feeling about the case ？
[HTC One M8 for Windows] RLKirk:
works the same as the android case if you have ever used it. Case doesnt offer alot of protection and you have to clean your phone from all the particles that get inbetween the case and the phone. other then that i love it. still using it if that says anything

I've got some pics in the thread in my sig. They are all screenshots, but its good enough.

Beyond that, anyone should be able to make a third party/cheap case. All it uses is a small magnet in the case and a sensor under the screen to activate it.

I want to view my old outbound SnapChap videos and pictures and I am aware that they are stored somewhere on smartphones. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE.

Is it possible to find these files?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
Whenever you receive a snap, Snapchat stores them temporarily in /data/data/com.snapchat.android/cache as jpg.nomedia files. They are able to be accessed if snaps haven't been opened yet (and for some reason some just tend to stay there long after the message has been viewed).

When a Snap is opened, the app deleted that cache of files. So it's likly that if you have already viewed them, they have been deleted.

That may not always be the case (as I managed to dig up some old snaps last night), but it's how the app functions.

There's an app called Snaps that can fetch whatever is in the temp cache folder and save it as jpgs. If you have root it's worth trying to use that app (the apk can be downloaded off Github somewhere).

I bought this locked ATT phone and unlocked it few months later.

The battery life was really terrible and it couldn't support T-mobile 4G LTE.

However, after I flash the recent PAC-MAN rom, it began supporting T-mobile 4G LTE.

The battery life is much better as well. Thanks to this rom, and my life is much easy now.

1. I do not know which one causes it begins supporting T-mobile LTE.

a. I made a mistake while factory reset at bootloader and I had to use my laptop to format the phone.

b. I installed the PAC-MAN rom after format.

Anyway, it's nice to support T-mobile LET since I just switch to them.

2. The battery life is much better. Before I can only use this phone for less than half day with the original battery.

Now, I can make few phone calls and play games for about half hr. The phone can last for more than 24 hrs.

3. The google voice/ MO+ is not working (either me or the one I call can't hear voice.) and the speaker mode is not working as well.

Anyway... I am very happy now..

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Chatty:
Well... I'd surely love 128MB of RAM. There aren't many PDAs around even until now having that relatively huge amount of memory.

If you want to go faster than one horse can run you can't simply solve this problem by using two horses - do you understand?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Ultimate Chicken:
RAM does not make any computer run faster - it only allows them to load larger/more programs without hanging or swapping out from disk. The illusion of speed comes from the fact that the computer is no longer required to swap things out from HDD that often, so large programs load immediately. Only processor and system bus determines speed - increasing your RAM isn't going to make that SD-Card slot work any faster.
