Hi,

I want to buy a USB 3.0 Memory Card Reader. I have searched and found some good card readers from reputable brands. Which one should I choose from the list below?

Transcend USB 3.0 Super Speed Multi-Card Reader (TS-RDF8K): http://goo.gl/i8uEIw

Kingston Mobilelite G4 USB 3.0 (FCR-MLG4) Card Reader: http://goo.gl/16xLD5

Anker USB 3.0 Multi-Purpose Card Reader: http://goo.gl/ZMUwek

Circle Rootz USB 3.0 All in one Card Reader: http://goo.gl/W8FCXJ

Silicon Power SPC39V1W Card Reader: http://goo.gl/H931i5

If anyone has other suggestions then please let me know (links will be helpful) (Indian online marketplaces only). And I live in India hence all the links are from Indian online marketplaces. I'm not sure about the last two card readers from Circle Rootz and Silicon Power. Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] realyweely:
Hi I bought my new Galaxy mega 2 weeks ago in Bangkok from a reputable dealer so its a straight phone!. Got a local SIM from AIS and it was working faultlessly on both Phone and Data.

Got back to the UK and as my old phone has the 'Normal' sized Sim I ordered a Micro Sim from Virgin.

Now the problems start, when trying to make a phone call or message I get Not Registered on Network, but not all the time. I can occasionally make calls but for 90% of the time I get the above message despite have 3 bars signal power on the phone.

I called Virgin, they said it was the problem with the phone (but how come it worked perfectly in Thailand)

Called Samsung, they told me I had to call Bangkok.

Just as a follow up this phone is unlocked.

I find this phone perfect for almost everything I want.

Can anyone help with the problem? Ive tried all the Google fixes to no success.

This morning I went to access a movie on SD Card only to find that my 32 GB SD Card had been erased??

It was fine last night before I went to bed.

Only thing I did was reboot the phone before I went to bed. Spotify wouldn't open properly and clearing the cache didn't help so I rebooted the phone and went off to sleep!!

Checked card in my computer and it is indeed erased. I reformatted it and put it back in to phone and I'll monitor for a while.

Anyone else have this happen to them?

---Previous to this the phone kept unmounting my old 32 GB Sandisk Card. The card that got erased last night was a 32GB Transcend

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to talk a little about the best info widget for android.

Organizer widget combines the notification for everything you could ask for, in a very descriptive way: Calls, Messages, Calendar, Email, Facebook, Evernote and more.

I bought this app because it deserved the money.

Yesterday i searched for it on the market and nothing.... what's happening GOOGLE, are apps i bought just dissapearing from the market without notification?

I payed for that app and Google just took it away from me, are they even allowed to do that?

Have a great day,

Daniel
[Android Apps and Games] es0tericcha0s:
How do you know that it was Google that removed it and not the developer? And of course they would have the right to remove an app if it didn't meet the guidelines. Why would you expect them not to have this ability?
[Android Apps and Games] dumitrudan608:
I would expect Google to be more serious and let me know if an app that I payed for is no longer available. What would you do if you bought a big screen TV, and one day the store comes and takes it away, no questions asked? once you buy an app from the app store, you have the legal right to own a copy of that app. Luckily I had a backup done only a day before, but allot of people did not.

Hey guys,

i'm a big fan of the HTC M8 Dot View Cover. I was looking for something similar for the Galaxy S4 and i found this Kviewcase Kickstarter. It looks quite impressive to me, but sadly its a kickstarter and not available yet. I couldnt find anything else like this on the internet. Does Anybody know any other working Dot View Covers?

Anyway i just want to share the Kickstarter with you, maybe someone else is interested in something similar too.

Sorry for my poor English.

I just flashed this rom, locked bootloader, no boot loop.

And the corrected version for Ion is http://bbs.gfan.com/android-7700806-1-1.html

You can view the screen shots there.

After flashing it's in chinese so you must change to English (or your native language) but there are still chinese texts (like at the lockscreen).

The rom is originally in chinese so when changing into English there'll be some display problems.

Some chinese floatwares need to be removed, and no Google Apps, not even Google Play but you can download from the chinese App Search included with this rom.

It was quite smooth till I installed Google Play '__'

Hey Guys,

I have a Lg G2 D802 and I have tried various stock ROMs like Cloudy G3, Optimus G3 and ofcourse the stock ROM. The issue is that my G2 seems to use mobile data even when my data is turned off. Upon further investigation, i found out that it's the Location Service when set to High Accuracy triggers the data irrespective of whether you have mobile data turned on or off.

Thing I have tried till now

1. Mobile data OFF :- Data gets consumed when i have location service set to High Accuracy

2. Mobile Data OFF and Connected to Wifi :- Data gets consumed when i have location service set to High Accuracy

3. Mobile Data OFF and used a Fake APN name :- Data gets consumed when i have location service set to High Accuracy

Due to this issue, i am not able to use offline navigation app like sygic.

A similar issue is Open in the Google Issue Tracker Page which can be found here

Is there any solution yet to get rid of the above bug?
[G2 General] khaytsus:
I don't see how this restricts you from using anything. It's not like it's going to ACTIVELY use data, it sounds like it does some sort of very tiny data transfer, maybe even just agps data or such, and I'll bet it does it once a day.

It's not like GPS is "using data".
[G2 General] fundoozzz:
Yes it uses tiny packets of days, not like once in a day but may be every 10-15 minutes. But the main thing is that data should not get consumed once we have turned off the data.. People who are on roaming can still incur significant data charges. It indeed is a bug which is also on the Google issue tracker. Just wanted to know if anyone had any solution for it.
[G2 General] votinh:
If it's true, then it's weird.
[G2 General] createben:
change location service to battery saving mode. then it wont.
[G2 General] fundoozzz:
I know it doesn't then but then I can't use offline navigation apps like sygic
[G2 General] sugaritos:
if you install an application to track your data will you find the consumption of them?
[G2 General] mwedo:
I know there's some option when doing initial setup (like after reflashing ROM or hard reset). There's a checkbox or two, checked by default. Can't recall its name now but it's something like "Allow Google to do something (?) even when data is disabled".

[G2 General] Raymonf:
"Allow Google to use your location even when location is turned off" or something.
[G2 General] mwedo:
Ahh, yeah. That's correct :)

Sent from my LG-D802

That's not the issue.. the thing is I want to use location at high accuracy without using data.. I have offline navigation.. but that is not looking possible.

I'm sure you all read about the "mysterious cellphone towers" across the USA (maybe it's an extended practice by now).

Is there any device, addon or software out there (that isn't that expensive android phone) to attempt to find any of these anomalies?
