No I haven't mainly because of the amount of bricks being reported. Too much headache and since its my mothers there's no point. Lol. You'll love it for watching movies I swear they look better than on my Nexus 9. Maybe that Intel video enhancer or whatever its got really works well. The speakers are loud and sound great too.
[Dell Venue] waingro808:
So I've had the tablet for a week now. The amount of bloatware pre-installed was insane. I was surprised since the 1st gen 3830 came with almost zero. After disabling all bloatware and all google apps, disabling animations, disable sync, disable backup & restore, it's running fairly well. Chrome browser is definitely not happening. Stock browser is good, but opening multiple tabs is still guaranteed to make the tablet lag.

All in all, this is a great tablet for someone who only does one thing at a time (No multiple browser tabs and switching back and forth between apps). 1920 x 1200 Screen is awesome, build quality fantastic, thin and fairly light, 802.11ac wireless, wireless charging, almost pure Android, and good enough battery life. This thing is perfect for my wife and was a steal at $75 from Amazon Warehouse. Got a $7 case from eBay and my wife is loving it. It's a big upgrade from her Nexus 7 2012.

That being said, I will not be picking another one up for myself unless we get a magic update that makes it as fast as my 3830. I like to multitask, so that's priority for me.

P.S. After all updates, I ran Antutu and the tab scored 33,000 vs 24,000 for my 3830. Sadly, real world experience doesn't reflect this.
[Dell Venue] ChristianJay:
Lol, my mother went from my hand me down N7(2012) to this and so far, with the way I've set it up, she likes it for her style of use. It really is a shame as if the darn thing had 3 (gasp!) gigs of Ram it would be a killer little tablet, the fact that you can pick them up so cheap is another huge plus.

Hi! CJ, I have a Dell Venue 8 3840, and for some reason I'm unaware of, it's WIFI, & BLUETOOTH, have completely being "lost", I.E. the icons, the Settings options etc.... Have " disappeared ".

I would be most grateful for your advice on it's recovery.

Thanks & regards,

Mahil.
[Dell Venue] ChristianJay:
Hmmm, never heard of that happening before. I could ask you a bunch of questions to see what may have caused it but instead my advice would be do a reset. Under settings/back up & reset/ factory reset. Back up whatever files you don't want to lose, the cloud works great for that, and then reset. See if that brings it back.

I had bought my tablet online. It was working well initially. Then suddenly from one day the screen started to freeze once it was not in use for minimum 7-8 seconds although the tab was not hanging, just the tablet touch screen was not responding to touch.

Dell Venue 8 8340 slow fix

Hey guys,

I have found a solution for the extremely slow performance of the Dell Venue 8 8340. You must disable wi-fi optimization in settings --> wifi --> advanced. After disabling this feature, the tablet runs fairly smooth with no crashing or delays. This may be a temporary fix; however, it does seem to affect the tablets performance. Also, I did not have the time to check if this fix has been posted, sorry for the repeat if it has. Please update on whether or not this tweak works for others.
[Dell Venue] dattguy:
Setting 'Developer Options' -> 'Background Processes' to 'At most 2 Processes' seems to help with performance. Reboots and updates sometimes reset this to the default though.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isamu99:
Hi guys. Is there an app out there that makes it possible to connect an external USB flash drive or 2.5" drive to the shield tab via its USB port?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primetechv2:
I'm pretty sure you just do, and you'll be good. Strangely I've never had any problems using an OTG USB drive with the Shield. That's what you'd be looking for, by the way... Am OTG cable.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
One quick thing to note is, be prepared to need to power the hard drive. The tablet may not have enough juice to power a full hard drive. So if you plug it in and it isn't recognized, try a powered USB hub.

Secondly, make sure you have ES file explorer.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarRaven:
I use a WD ultra passport portable 1tb drive and a otg cable.

I just plug in, open ES file explorer an get what I need an unmount an disconnect.

You'll lose a few percent of battery potential as expected.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isamu99:
Thanks guys. I'm honestly shocked this actually works. I tried it with my WD passport laptop drive and low and behold it works flawlessly. With the research I did in the past with my HTC EVDO 3D, and reading all the comments on various messageboards, I really thought connecting USB HDDs to any Android device would not work. Does it work in this instance mainly because the device is a Shield Tablet? Or is it only because I'm rooted, and as a result any rooted Android device will allow USB HDDs to be used?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oleg77:
OTG and enough power

It just works if your (android) device has an On the Go (OTG) USB connector AND if it gives enough power to your (hard) drive. If there isn't enough power, you need a Y OTG cable and external power source. Many smartphones do not provide the 500mA at 5V they should provide, but tablets usually give enough from my experience.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MikeJ112:
Hi all!

I have just upgraded my SPV M3100 to WM6, with a vanilla rom. Now i have updated i cannot acess video calling?

Any ideas?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
The vanilla ROM is a barebones rom (hence the name Vanilla.......nothing added) the only WM6 rom to incorporate video calling is LVSW, however this may be the WM5 dialer added ontop of WM6 (thus a downgrade....but i may be wrong).

The thread regarding WM6 Vanilla does comment on this, I would STRONGLY recommend reading through the threads concerned before flashing a new rom.

WMXL v0.2 does have the ability for video calling but (as above) it is the WM5 dialer and is therefor an extra you can download and install.

Is video calling an essential feature you wish to use??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MikeJ112:
No its not essential, I have already bricked a phone due to poor flashing (oops) so its not something im willing to reflash for!! Loving WM6 though, very smooth. Any ideas on Overclocking?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Cant say there is alot of info regarding overclocking there was a program released which was quoted as having Hermes support however im pretty sure testers said it just didnt agree with the device. If you have already lost a device are you sure you want to tinker with overclocking at the moment??

The best thing you can do is the read, read and re-read the wiki before doing ANYTHING, i know it may take some time but it is better than bricking a 2nd device ;)

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dennnnnnnis:
That 6.4" display seems to be great for a VR headset.

Anyone have any success?

What model?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] QuBe2:
i tried the colorcross vr and it is to small
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cupidstunt:
I got mine in the colorcross. Had to hacksaw the lips off one side which was easy and you can slide it in from the side.

Only problem is the images are slightly too far apart due to the size of the screen although it does work well in some apps
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] musebox:
I actually tried mine with one of those cardboard vr headsets that I bought on Amazon. Works pretty well with some of the vr apps but I couldn't get the magnet switch to work. Again, the ultra was too big for it but I held it in place with one hand and the visuals were pretty awesome. I know they sell extra large kits, but not sure if I want to buy another one just yet.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Forever5212138:
Oh
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adrianmignogna:
Same here, bought the Colorcross Headset because it said would work with Phonoes & Tablets up to 7".

Yeah...sure...7". Not even the Z Ultra does fit in, had to cut some pieces out to make it fit. No chance that anything bigger than the ZU will ever fit.

Then there was the Problem with the lenses, because of the Size of the Display, they need to be further away from the screen and the space between those two lenses needs to be bigger, I managed to get them out of the Headset and glued them back in (about 3mm further back and 8mm further away from each other) - with a cardboard holder i made myself.

That "thing" looks horrible now, but it does the Job. Although, the experience isn't that great with the ZU because of the low DPI of the Screen.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cupidstunt:
Mo3d is amazing if you want to watch either 2d or 3d films with the ultra. You can decrease the ipd so the images are moved closer together.

Im still a newbie but

Here's the question ! How do i put the app data to my external storage

and what does foldermount do?
[General Topics] HeyWee S.A.R.:
You need root anyways

If you mean with app data like the game cache you can:

Method (1)

use a xposed moudle named (obb 2 sd) activate it and reboot and then move the Entire Obb file (or only the games you want from it but make sure to keep them in the android/obb directory) to the extsdcard

What Is Xposed? See here:

http://xdaforums.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053

Method (2)

Download Foldermount (free version support up to three games but you can buy the full app from an in-app purchase to unlock full features and support the devs of it)

And follow [MENTION=5223797]jackaros[/MENTION] Guide it's a really good detailed guide should help anyone with trouble using foldermount:

About the game:

Flat design.

You "jump" to get gems that are moving on the top of the screen and the bottom. Each gem is one point.

However, there is a barrier on the top and bottom of your circle, you hit it, you die.

Use gems to unlock new backgrounds and cool characters!

Can you last the longest?

[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
I wrote a tutorial about it in the dev section I think. You need this widget

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sharp_eu.ste.wifihotspot

Also be rooted. And download this apk

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ptSoft.util.sqlite3forroot

And this one

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager

And this one

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor

Install all of them. Then reboot for good measure.

Next open smanagr and start new script

Next copy and paste these two scripts into smanager

#!/system/bin/sh

DB="/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db"

/system/xbin/sqlite3 "$DB" "UPDATE global SET value='0' WHERE name='tether_dun_required';"

#!/system/bin/sh

DB="/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db"

/system/xbin/sqlite3 "$DB" "UPDATE global SET value='0' WHERE name='package_verifier_enable';"

Each script name them what you want but they are two separate scripts. So start a new script for each. Click "SU" and "boot" like in the pic below

Both scripts should have super user rights and ran on boot up automatically. They change the necessary "1's" to "0's" in the settings. And they will do it on every re boot. So you don't have to worry about it anymore. My 11 year old son starts my hotspot every morning before I get up so he can play Xbox one thru my hotspot. But then again he learned how to set all this up a couple years ago when I had to manually redo all this on every reboot.

Now place the hotspot widget on your home screen and only use it. DO NOT USE THE FACTORY HOTSPOT WIDGET OR TOGGLE IN YOUR SETTINGS. It will mess all this work you've done and all the work I put into re writing this tutorial for you to waste.

The downloaded widget will toggle the factory hotspot and that's OK as long as it is toggled by a third party apk.

You should be good to go.

The other pic shows it works....look at my hotspot data usage.

Hell he's on Xbox live now.
