An SD card reader is usually a USB device that you put in a laptop or a desktop computer to work with the files on an SD card. If that is what is not working, chances are it is toast. Most of them are poorly made, but, the bright side is that they are very cheap to replace.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
Theres also one behind/under the battery...

I have seen many posts about this. I have heard of at least one that worked after a few bat pulls and letting it sit there for a while but i also know a lot of people had to get a new phone under warranty

Has anyone experiencing wifi won't connect once it wakes up from sleep. Mine is running the latest 2.2. My wifi keeps turning on and off in a loop until I put it back to sleep, and it does ok. 2nd time.

Any ideas or suggestion?
[G Tablet General] jtbnet:
I have 2 Gtabs... from my garage lab 1 shows 3 bars to basement router, other shows 1 bar to same router... the 3 bars one wakes almost everytime cleanly... the one bar (weaker) one shows similar problem to your's... I loaded power widget on top of one on my homescreens and just use the enable/disable wifi button to retry connect when it doesn't wake first time (else loops trying till disable/enable) and that has always fixed it for me on the tab having weaker signal (bad internal antenna????)...
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
Well I don't think it has anything to do with the signal strength since no matter where I am close to the wireless router.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I think this has been an issue with TnT stock (and Lite) since Day One. I usually leave the WiFi on even in sleep mode (in WiFi Advanced Settings) which seems to help.

Or, I use a WiFi widget to just turn off the Wifi before I put it into sleep mode.
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
Thanks. It is good to hear that I am not the only one. Yes, I have started using widget to force things.

I am going to try that advanced settings to see if it works. So far I think it happens when it goes to deep sleep overnight.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
You may be on to something, since my previous G (first 1000), was very picky as mentioned and newer G much better.

There are more then 1000's of these are out there? Anyway to track them by the serials? I have $279 version may be the earlier model.

Any ideas on how to make the Android forums better?

Sticky the builds so all non-sticky are Q's?

An Android Q&A forum?

I want ideas

Will make a poll when i have we get a few more ideas :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] AssasinQ:
There should be a topic wich would be actualised.

It should has all informations about every Android build.

What works, what doesn't work and links to these whole builds(new uploads with links on other servers than megaupload).

The topic should be some kind of list. But with informations about it.

Builds should be sticked, and creators of these topics should have a rule. Every topic should has a complete changelog.

Because now, we have a mess! Everyone says that his build is the best, that's annoying. I don't know wich one is the best for me i don't have full informations about them... I don't want to search whole their topics.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
Maybe Q/A section would be useful. Right now there are questions irrelevant to topic title everywhere. It would be nice to gather them around, so build threads can be strictly about builds.

I think that would make section a bit cleaner.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] gaurav_v:
We Have Started The Xperoid page at facebook and we need to setup twitter so that built info can be passed fast ...... direct links to the dloads and not the file sharing site so that we dont need pc to dload .. it can be done in mobile and resumed :-) hopping for the best . thanks .
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pbfree:
althuogh is't nice to have a free forum, I see that a moderator should have the role of filtering the new post mainlly when they introduce a release, everybody should have a structured way to post, change log, version, and so on. I suggest to have some fixed kind of test that a new release has to pass before releasing it.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] matejdro:
I don't think we should force developers to format their posts. They are already doing hard jobs to develop, so they can go easy on posts :)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kris312:
Xperia x10 android rom on xperia x1

or perhaps take on android rom xperaia x10 on xperia x1?

it would be great to have applications as xperia x10 like timescape, trackid, mediascape ...

yea maybe not everything is as smooth as our xperia x10 x1 has no such things as 3D Acelerator 1GHz ... but I would have xperia x10 rom on my x1)
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] pbfree:
template idea

yes, you are rigth when you say the developer have to go easy to post, that why should be a moderator that at least create a template for some kind of post, the reason is to find more o less the same information when they have post an update or something new. Having a template should easy their job on posting the correct info and have back the correct information for debug or problem.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Badwolve1:
Do you mean to create a kind of Reference Thread, I can't do anything about where people host their Developments.

I will add sticky all builds and developments to the list :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazzlet:
How can I delete the news app from my s-off desire?

Is it possible to do it direct from the phone without having to use adb?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Yes, you have to reboot after deleting to apply the change. Also remember to mount as r/w before removing.
[Galaxy 3 General] kenblat:
Firmware JP9, power-on to recovery mode => install update.zip => error can't mount sdcard => try to using adb for mounting sdcard manually but adb did not active.

One more thing, root using one click 1.5.5 OK for apps but can not achieve SU @ adb (and adb only work while boot into normal mode)

Any suggestion for install the update.zip from sdcard?
[Galaxy 3 General] Gsam101:
No more recovery for me either (I didn't flash the bootloader althrough).

When you use adb and type "su", the phone should prompt you a window.
[Galaxy 3 General] nastyba:
for the same reason I can not update gps.conf with european settings, it says error message when I try adb :(
[Galaxy 3 General] kenblat:
root your phone using super one click 1.5.5 (Run the soft first, and click root wait until the software said that waitting devices... plug your phone to PC using usb cable and wait more 2'' or 5'' . DONE! It's safe and you can unroot as well)

you can using some missing command by busybox (the easiest way in install titanium backup and click the problems? button in the right bottom it will automatically install new busy box to your phone)

adb shell

$su

#busybox mount -o remount,rw /system (change to your path to the gps.conf - with this command you can edit or replace the old file)

#busybox cp /sdcard/gps.conf /system/.../gps.conf

DONE

Good luk!
[Galaxy 3 General] angry_friend:
Or you can install "Root explorer" - RO/RW mount in 1 click + file explorer ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] nastyba:
Thank you for your effort - I have rooted phone & Titanium backup installed and busybox installed after Titanium was launched first time.

I can not run Adb Shell

#su works OK

after "busybox..." it says error message :(

I cannot find root explorer on market :(

and finaly I was trying Terminal emulator and SUFBS and I still can not edit system/etc/GPS.CONF :(((

any ideas please ?
[Galaxy 3 General] nastyba:
hi, where did you get it pls ?
[Galaxy 3 General] hamsiro:
google for blackdroid and there search for root explorer...
[Galaxy 3 General] kenblat:
google for "android+ root explorer.apk download"
[Galaxy 3 General] angry_friend:
QR Code of the app:

yeah I forgot, it's not free, but it worth 3.90$ to pay, trust me ;)

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] meltedmoops999:
I dont quite get what your referring to. Explain it a little better.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] ccb04:
He's talking about the little picture on the top right corner right that comes out after you take a picture..Now when you click it, it does nothing..instead of opening the picture.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] verkion:
And the bottom-most button below the "camera shutter" button in the Camera App. It looks like a little SD Card and normally takes you to the "gallery", HTC's Album. I'm thinking we have to change the link somehow.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piam:
I've Just seen somewhere on this website about some people porting HTC sense to the Samsung galaxy S. If this is the case, is it possible to port HTC sense to the galaxy tablet?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I suspect it would be much harder to port to the Tab since it is a higher resolution than all Sense devices.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
And why would you want this in the first place?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agne:

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gahh Its Lee:

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agne:
Go buy htc then.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justin^Tan:
so if i want to buy tab i have to like touchwiz?

most of the tab users dont even use touchwiz any "mo"

if people wanting sense, so be it

different people want different things, if there's something could be done about it, there's nothing wrong with having lots of option for the tab we love
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Body:
It would be great to have sense in the galaxy tab.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alcibiade:
Agreed (I am a big fan of it). Although honestly with a higher resolution and more screen real estate Sense makes.. less sense :) It's a great interface when you have a small screen, I doubt it's really useful with a bigger screen (you can organize your home screen better)

Just my 2... cents :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GANJDROID:
I like Sense, but thats why I got my Desire. I wouldnt like it on the Tab though.

Kudos to whoever can port it though, as youll have a hell of a challenge doing so.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksizzle9:
Sense is the **** and everyone knows it. Samsung galaxy s devices would suck a WHOLE LOT less if it had sense. And yes, i love my tab, but my fascinate and the other 5 SGS phones have serious flaws, all that sense would help
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
Ok, give me a list of the fellation reduction that would occur if a Galaxy S had Sense.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightnz:
Bwahaha.

Um. No. Looking prettier != better.

My HTC Hero had Sense, I put a MoDaCo ROM onto it instead as it was approximately a metric ****load faster with nigh identical functionality, it just wasn't quite as eye-candy infused.

By the same token, I _could_ run a HTC Desire port on my N1, but it gets a MIUI ROM instead, as once again, similar functionality, faster UI, smaller memory footprint.

Personally, I think Samsung have done a surprisingly good job with their custom apps. The widgets are sorely lacking but LauncherPro+ (which I own anyway) makes up for that.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminal 7:
sense

sense on this screen size would need some work, all the widgets would look too small at the usual resolution ( 800x480 ) that sense uses for most devices.

this could be ok though, you might be able to fit more widgets on each screen, or may be the widgets would all ends up huge and look silly, if that did happen i suppose we could use LCD DENSITY CHANGER to scale it back a bit.

in short i would love to see a desire-hd port for the tab, i probably wouldnt use it as my daily rom but its always fun flashing new roms and having options,

"ps, anyone else tried lcd density changer on the tab set to 180dp , with ADW or launcher pro set to a grid of 8x6 , looks brilliant and uses the screen space to best effect"..
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinniven:
Wow

Why do you have to give someone crap for what they like or dont like? He asked if sense would be possible and he gets jumped on. Grow up!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justin^Tan:
i tried, but its laggy as hell >.<

and i just realize u wrote 8x6

i use 8x8 back then

dont u feel any lag on 8x6?

Does anybody know if backlight is LED or CCF? I am planing on leaving Streak's screen permanently ON (low brightness) overnight as an alarm clock, and that would eventually kill CCF lamp, but should be OK for LED.

Thanks!
[Streak 5 General] werideonsunbeams:
Hey up. the clock app in 2.2 has a brightness button that seems to turn the backlight off, and its a pretty nice screen too. should be ok.
[Streak 5 General] dvowel:
You have to leave the screen on to use it as an alarm clock?
[Streak 5 General] ZodiacPhoto:
Yes

Yes, I would prefer to see the time when I wake up (sometimes) in the middle of the night. LEDs have practically unlimited life, usually 50-100K hours, but cold cathode fluorescent lamps loose brightness with time.

I'm sure no modern phone uses a cold cathode.

Edited to add:

This is no longer an issue. A replacement phone is being shipped. If there is a way that the moderators can delete this thread, thank you in advance.

Hi everyone,

I'm very new to this forum, and to doing anything root wise on a phone. Here's my situation:

I'm using a rooted LG P509 (Optimus T), and tried to install a theme meant for the Nexus One (kind of why I'm posting here for help). The theme used was obtained here, it's the Lucid theme. I tried to install the theme using the latest version of clockworkmod in the Android Market. Everything went well, or so it seems, and I was asked to reboot my phone. I allowed the phone to reboot and now it's stuck on the LG symbol. I've (1) taken the battery out, (2) placed it back into the phone, (3) pressed the home, volume down, and power keys at the same time to get to recovery mode, and that doesn't work.

I now know that themes meant for certain phones should be used for the intended device. At the time I figured because I used clockworkmod, that it would work despite the difference in hardware.

I'm wondering if there's a way to get my phone back to normal? Thank anyone in advanced for helping this noob.

---

I've also asked for help in the forum where the theme was obtained.
[Nexus One General] simms22:
you need to flash a custom recovery via ADB or fastboot, then data wipe(factory reset) your phone and reflash whatever rom you were on. if maybe you can get a recovery or ADB working, then your phone will be fine. flashing a nexus one theme onto your Optimus T isnt one of the brightest ideas. i would never consider trying to flash a theme from another similar phone onto my nexus, let alone a completely different phone.
[Nexus One General] kitsunisan:
If you have questions about using adb, there's a couple of helpful stickies up, make sure you read everything, but its pretty straightforward. And as Simms said, bad idea trying to cross themes.
[Nexus One General] wecrunch:
I'll read the threads on ADB. Thanks guys.
[Nexus One General] cmstlist:
Were you using ROM Manager? Or flashing manually via flash_image? Otherwise I don't know what you mean by Clockworkmod in the Market.

I suspect your phone never even got as far as flashing the theme. If you tried to flash Clockworkmod recovery, that's enough to mess up your phone, because you probably flashed a version intended for completely different hardware.

Now that you've borked the recovery partition, you probably need to get it into some sort of "download mode" that can interface with LG's proprietary software for reflashing phones. This would all be best dealt with in the Optimus One (P500) forum.
[Nexus One General] wecrunch:
Clockworkmod should have an icon of a black hat with an orange cog for a head.

I did attempt to flash a theme intended for different hardware.

The several computers I've gone on haven't recognized the phone, and my attempts to place any file on the SD card proved futile. Since the phone is under warranty, I called the store I purchased it from, and they're going to ship a replacement.
[Nexus One General] cmstlist:
The icon you describe is the icon I see for ROM Manager. Clockworkmod itself is not an app you can download from the market but rather a partition you flash that has to be written for the exact hardware. Unless there's something you saw in your Market that I can't see in mine.

From within ROM Manager you can flash Clockworkmod. But if you flashed a version of Clockworkmod meant for other hardware, I'm willing to bet *that* mangled your phone, regardless of what you attempted to use it for..

Anyway, glad you're getting a replacement.
[Nexus One General] KAwAtA:
Interesting, LG will let you replace the phone even though you've clearly rooted it and caused the problems? Of all people, I'm surprised LG lets you do that. You've stated that it's under warranty but what you done should've voided the warranty. You sure they're okay with replacing your phone like that?
