[G2 and Desire Z General] KeithRVA:
So here is my current gadget inventory.

T-Mobile G2 (stock but still able to do wi-fi hotspot for free)

iPod Touch 4G (jailbroken)

Amazon Kindle 3

I use these devices together with the G2 as the wi-fi hotspot. Besides an hdmi port and a built-in kickstand, hardware-wise I can't think of anything awesome that I don't have. I don't want a tablet size device or a laptop.

Can do:

4G speed

Retina display

e-Ink display (for outdoors in direct sunlight)

Streaming Netflix (yay!)

iTunes

Appstore

Android Market

Front facing camera

Rear facing camera with flash

HD Video recording

Slide out qwerty keyboard

6-axis gyroscope (I think the iPod has this, not 100% sure)

Dedicated camera button

DLNA (using Twonky app)

Trackpad

Notification light

Ability to dock with my existing iPod/iPhone accessories (quite a few, blush)

Can't do:

Hook up to hdmi (maybe there is an accessory for iPod, not sure)

No built-in kickstand (Damn you EVO/HD7!)

Surround sound like the new WP7 Surround

S-Amoled display (I think the Retina is as good or better)

Windows Phone 7 Market (who cares, Appstore has best games)

Windows Live cloud stuff (hmmm would be nice, but oh well)

I know this might be pointless info, but I was bored, so feel free to comment or add to my lists. Someday I might have one device that does everything, but I don't think Apple will ever make a slider iPhone, but who knows.

Hello community!

I'have some big troubles with my Desire, it's restarting sometimes. I've looked around here and i will send my device back to TMO.

It seems to me that the AudioSource is not transmitted correctly. The tab's "asound.conf" has no "AndroidRecord_Speaker" though it does have an "AndroidRecord_Microphone" which apparantly cannot be accessed by the AudioRecord constructor.

Someone knows at which point the AudioSource ENUM is mapped to the devices in asound.conf?

Or what else might be going wrong?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deaz-34:
Hi,

Is there anyone who can tell me what to do with the phone before sending it in for repair at HTC?

My phone is rooted and running MIUI mod.

I know my warranty is void but because this is a hardware failure, I hope they will fix it anyway.

My question is whether I should restore the phone, or if it doesn't matter because they still can see it is rooted?

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CmpeKells:
Before upgrading to Froyo JK4 my phone (I9000M) was unlocked and working on the Rogers network. After upgrading through Kies I lost my unlock. I bought it second hand already unlocked so I'm not sure what method they used. I tried using the 'Samsung Galaxy S Froyo Unlock' App to unlock it again, but I just get the file not found error.

So then I set off to root the phone and try the root method for unlocking. I downloaded an installed z4root. Unfortunately, that app does not seem to work with this ROM, it runs for a while then just closes, I have USB debugging enabled and I have tried many times.

So my question is, has anybody found another method I can use to unlock my phone on JK4? Or is there a method to root that is known to work on JK4?

Thanks!

Still no luck

As I mentioned before, my phone was unlocked before upgrading to Froyo. I was using a Rogers sim in a bell phone no problem. I am not sure how it was unlocked because I bought it second hand. But since it was unlocked the posts at XDA lead me to believe I could update without worry.

So far I have tried flashing back to JH2 and following helroz method to set the unlock code to 00000000 as described here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8182729&postcount=107.

After following the steps, it let my try to enter the unlock code once, then I rebooted and it would not let me out of airplane mode.

I have tried rooting and using the Galaxy S Unlock Froyo App.

I checked the backup copies of nv_data.bin for the unlock code.

Anybody have any other ideas?

[Nook Color General] rob04:
First - thanks for all the contributors to this forum!! Hence the reason I decided to pay it forward...

My environment:

- Windows 7 64 bit, pro

I wanted to post my experience with the issues I had. I'm not going to bore you with another step-by-step guide but I am going to touch on a few key points...

1) Make sure you prepare your SD card! What I had to do was delete all the partitions on the drive, you can use diskpart to do this. Don't format, or create any partitions on the drive, when you copy the image this will do it for you. The mistake i made was trying to create the partition and format the drive... don't do this!! Below are steps on how to delete the partitions in Windows. If you're using linux you probably know how to do this in your environment...

Start > Run > cmd

Type in: diskpart

A new box will open... type in "list disk" (without quotes)

Find the number of your your SD card disk and type in "select disk #" replacing # with the number you found and without quotes

For each partition do the following: "list partition" then "select partition #" then "delete partition"

Do this for every partition

Then try winimage or cygwin, the latter was successful for me, I tried both

2) If your device boots up normally after putting in the SD card to root it, your SD card is not prepared properly. It could be a bunch of things... but at this point focus on fixing the image... not the ADB drivers.

- If it is successful your nook will appear completely off (no noise or display)... so you have to watch the notifications on your PC. I left it on for about 3 minutes then turned it off and took out the SD card.

Hope this helps, just a few lessons learned.
[Nook Color General] samofny:
WinImage won't see it after this

WinImage is not able to see the SD card once the partition has been removed. The SD card is now useless since Windows can't see it either. Thanks for turning a 4GB SD card into trash for me.
[Nook Color General] chuffykow:
Cut the drama, it's not trashed. Partition and format the card with the built-in Windows software and try again.
[Nook Color General] mick2021:

google HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool and reformat your sdcard.
[Nook Color General] johnopsec:
(1) It's not trashed.

(2) Even if it was trashed (and it isn't), how much of your lifes savings did that 4G card cost you?

(3) I'd ask the original poster for a refund RIGHT FRIGGIN' NOW! How much was it that they charged you for their advice? :mad:

Good grief. Some people.

[Nook Color General] rob04:
Its definitely not trashed.... just create a new partition.

Cygwin worked well for me... give it a shot!
[Nook Color General] johnopsec:
You were SOOOOO close...

The problem was that you wrote the image to the partition and not to the device.

Here is the correct command:

sudo dd if=nooter_sdcard_40mb.img of=/dev/sdb

The image is a complete disk image, not a partition image so it must be written to the raw device /dev/sdb in your case and not the partition /dec/sdb1.

Note: /dev/sdb (leave the 1 which indicates the partion off!)

Being a Nexus One owner

- How did I end up with such a bad digitizer? Not true multi-touch, where was HTC/google when they decided to go with cheap Clearpad 2000, screwing us with all sorts of screen issues?

- Why is the speaker so effin horrible, worse than my £30 phones?

- The menu keys seem to be mislocated with the screen, hence you have to somewhat press the top half (despite people saying this was fixed via software, it was not)

- Dust behind screen <-- WTF?

- Screen tearing

- Probably more that I missed

To be honest, the best part of HTC on my Nexus One was only the aesthetics look - with the unibody etc. Nothing else was of that great quality.

So please, lets take HTC off this pedestal which they do not deserve.

They even repeated the multi-touch issue on the Desire... I am actually happy they went with someone other than HTC.
[Nexus S General] EleCtrOx666:
Definitely gonna get this phone. It looks awesome.
[Nexus S General] frydiggity:
That's the way I interpreted it too, like (for some strange reason) the NFC capabilities were software-crippled. I know there's a LONG way to go in building out the hardware/software to enable some of the more interesting NFC use-cases, but I just want to make sure that if I get this, I'm not immediately limited to only the most lame NFC uses. If all we're going to be able to do with this handset is wave to get an NFC-encoded web URL, this awesome new technology just saved me the 2 seconds necessary to open Barcode Scanner and scan a 2D barcode that translates to a URL. Lame.

I think Google really owes us some more detail on the NFC end of this device.
