[G Tablet General] Frrrrrrunkis:
Hi tablet users, as a relatively new Android user, (ARIA Rooted and updated to 2.2 thanks to ATTN1) I have been extremely interested in this tablet. I was hoping to get some real answers from honest users of this device. I just don't trust the reviews that you can read from the various e-stores as they could be made up to entice people to buy.

Any feedback would be stellar!

Does it work with the regular Android market?
[G Tablet General] codhero:
Don't be afraid to buy, as long as you don't mind tinkering just a little...

It's extremely easy to install one of these custom ROMs and have this little machine humming right along...I went from TnTlite v2.4 to 3.0 in about 5 minutes...

I haven't installed ClockworkMod. Adding Flash is easy enough, and I think is included in TnTlite 3.0...Getting the market to work correctly (99% anyway) is very easy.

I'm looking forward to 3.1 and future updates...it will only get better.

Thanks XDA!
[G Tablet General] popezaphod:
You can add Market to the stock GTablet; there are instructions in other threads on the forum.

You will get the most bang for your bucks by flashing one of the custom ROMs available here. I used Zpad for a while but was won over by the soft buttons and lack of TnT in the VEGAn build.

I use my tablet every day for all my web, email, and chatting needs. I only use my laptop... hmm, when DO I use my laptop? Oh yeah, for torrents and word processing, since there aren't any tablet-aware office suites... yet.

[General Questions and Answers] rajukaju:
hi guys! :)

this is my first post lol so here goes:

basically every time a media scan occurs, my recently added playlist on my stock sgs music player always rearranges/shuffles the music not in date order. however this does no happen on doubletwist! im so confused lol :confused:

thanks in advance :p
[General Questions and Answers] jenisiz:
More then likely it has to do with two main things I've typically seen. A) You have two or more folders that only have access to some songs so if you have alot of music it looks like there's things shuffled when they're really missing. or B) You simply have the sort method setup differently.
[General Questions and Answers] rajukaju:
thanks :) for the quick reply, could you suggest anything for me to change on my sgs plz?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legendary1022:
Your headset isn't a2dp compatible which is needed for media to be streamed to your phone. I suggest looking at something like the backbeat 903 for that.

I just joined this lovely community yesterday and I could not help but notice the massive collection of phone sections present. I think, as this forum grows, it would be a good idea to put all Samsung phones in one section, HTC phones in an HTC section, etc etc. Also, google should have it's own section :p.

[Nexus S General] lpasq:
As a new T-Mobile (US) customer, I was told by customer service that my $30 data unlimited plan gets down/up speeds throttled once data usage exceeds 5gig within the billing cycle. This was said after I lost data service as a result of my device having been identified as a Nexus S and the account had been originally and incorrectly provisioned as a Smartphone by the agent setting up my account and SIM on the 16th.

Interesting...
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
dont quite understand what your getting at, but if you did go over your 5gig soft data cap then there aint much you can do
[Nexus S General] diversificationied:
You've used 5 gigs of since the 16th on your phone?
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
On the G2 forums, they've developed a way to defeat the throttle.

However it has it's own drawbacks, and may not work on our phone due to changes in Gingerbread and/or just general differences in software.

Once more, this may not work on our phones but may give interested parties/developers a place to start.

[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
I got throttled on my Nexus One last month. I was tethering, but not doing torrents or movies or anything like that...I'm not sure what happened, but in one day I got like 2-3gb downloaded on my laptop...never figured it out.

I got a text message saying I was throttled in speed until the end of the billing cycle. I never really noticed the throttling. I was getting 4Mb/s on speed tests before the throttle and 2.8-3.0Mb/s after. For normal use, this isn't a big deal.

Total usage last bill was 7gb. Never used that much before, usually hover around 3-4.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Pecata:
Hi Guys I have the T-mobile G2 running stock software-hasn't been rooted or anything. I've noticed that the phone will stop audiable notifiations and vibrate on then for unknown reason. It does that eventually every time after reboot, the only way to fix it is to reboot the phone or if I receive incoming call it will resume the notifying and the vibration on the notifications again. It is rather weird and If you guys know what might be causing it or how to fix it please let me know. I know there are more people out there having the same issue. I wonder why is noone complaining about it?

Thank you.

Have you tried to disable "Power Saver"? (Menu-Settings-Power Saver)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Pecata:
I do not have such an option on my phone-I have the T-mobile G2 not the Desire Z-maybe there is a difference there in the options menu...I don't run the HTC sense version....
[G2 and Desire Z General] AllWin:
Root your phone, flash some DZ ROM and then do what i said before :D

Now seriously. Sorry, that was my bad..
[G2 and Desire Z General] Pecata:
Does anyone think this is an issue worth looking into? If anyone has the same issue please advise if you have found a way to fix it. It does look like software issue to me just don't know what is causing it....
[G2 and Desire Z General] Pecata:
Come on guys, does anyone have the same issue? Any way to fix that without rooting and using a custom ROM?

Help is appreciated...
[G2 and Desire Z General] sinistersai4d4d:
This used to happen to me all the time... on a few different stock android devices.

Notifications would just stop working. NO sound. I would go into Handcent and do a "Test Notification" and there would be no sound.

Always happened after having the phone on for several hours. I just got in the habit of rebooting daily. Currently I'm on Cyanogen Mod and haven't noticed an issue recently.

But like I said it has happened to me on 4 android devices all running various versions of Android.. so I'm guessing it's an app combo that I have.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KiNG OMaR:
I'm on CM6 and this happens to me randomly too :mad:
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
Yep, mine doesn't vibrate on sms notifications. Vibrates for incoming calls ok though. I only noticed it a few days ago. Hmmmm,.... Using CM6.1
[G2 and Desire Z General] Pecata:
I see, I am also guessing it's software related just don't know what is causing it...

The strange part is that when I reboot the phone shortly after it will stop notifying me or vibrating on notifications and after I receive a call it will start working normally again-until the next reboot-it is weird...

HTC G2

Hi there Everyone, I do feel that this is somewhat of an issue, :(

I have HTC G2 t-mobile running Cyangenmode 7-10 Rc

My issue of no sound notifications started after I updated the Rom

I was running 2.2.1 now it is 2.3.4.

I keep getting DSP manager error, and this will pop up when I make a phone call or if I have an in coming call. (and I hear some static noise) that part is not as annoying as the fact

Some times during the week (when I am at work and need the phone to be quiet) I will get actually get sound, and then on the weekend I don't

Not sure what is going on. with this I have been looking on line to find a solution I have tried a few but still no luck, Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Blessings from Moondaughter6:)

[Droid X General] jjalenak:
I got a DX a few months ago, rooted it, etc. About a month ago I decided to go ahead deodex it. Installed CWM and did a backup first, then deodexed. During the process the instructions said to copy the guava.odx file out of the modded fileset, so I did. Everything seemed to work OK, rebooted, been fine since.

Early this week I got the update notice for 2.3.340, so I restored the CWM backup, downloaded the update, and tried to install. The phone rebooted and began installing the update. A few seconds into the install I see what looks like a yellow triangle around the progress bar, and it bails out. Once it finishes rebooting I get a message that the update failed.

I haven't removed any bloatware apps, so I don't think it's that. I suspect it's either 1) that I'm rooted, althoughs others here have updated while rooted; or 2) that guava.odx is missing and I'm not sure where to put it back.

Any ideas on my next step? Grab the 2.2 SBF and start over?

THanks.
[Droid X General] thepolishguy:
Um - sorry. I did read the post wrong.

I am rooted and was able to install. So I don't think that is it. After you rooted - but before you made your back up - did you mess with any system files or remove any bloat ware? You need to have all of that stuff to successfully install the OTA.
[Droid X General] jjalenak:
I don't remember messing around with anything. I had originally thought I'd remove the bloatware, but ended up not doing that.

Where would I find the stock 2.2 SBF? I can restore that, then update and re-install all of my apps, etc. Can someone also provide the instructions on how to install the 2.2 SBF?

Thanks.
[Droid X General] zwade01:
Head over to mydroidworld.com and check out their thread on the update. You can flash it via cw recovery along with the baseband, bootloader, etc.
[Droid X General] kdkinc:
A full SBF (2.3.320) via RSD cures all then start all over ***MAKE BACK UPS !!!** Then do 2.3.340 via phone.

If you want to really do it right copy your SD to you PC format the SD with your phone and only add back to the SD files you need and know that way you get rid of any old data files that may haunt your phone.
[Droid X General] jjalenak:
So I hit MyDroidWorld and found the 2.2 SBF thread. Downloaded the file along with the RSD Lite version. Update the Moto USB drivers to the latest 4.8 drivers, and installed RSD Lite. Plugged my X in, making sure it was set for PC mode and Debugging - but it doesn't show up in RSD Lite. What now? Or did I manage to overlook a crucial step?

Thanks.
[Droid X General] jjalenak:
Found that I had to put the phone into 'bootloader' mode. Did so, and the phone now shows up in RSD Lite. I can select the .SBF file, but the 'Start' button remains grayed out.

<sigh>

It shouldn't be this difficult, should it?

Do I have the wrong .SBF file? The bootloader shows 30.03, so I think that's the correct one for the 2.2 SBF....

Thanks.
[Droid X General] jjalenak:
Found an approach to flashing the 2.1 SBF here - http://rootzwiki.com/index.php/Smartphones/Motorola/Droid-X/Droid-X.html

This seemed to work (RDS List showed 'Passed' as the final status), but when I go to reboot it is giving me an error. Here's what's on my screen -

Bootloader

30.03

Err:A5,70,70,00,1F

MEM_MAP Blank

Service Req'd

Battery OK

OK to Program

Transfer Mode:

USB

Help! What do I need to do next?
[Droid X General] jjalenak:
Apparently needed the 2.2 SBF. Flashed it and the phone has re-booted successfully. Whew. What a pain in the a.....!

Thanks.

PS - RSD Lite has a status of 'Please manually power up this phone.', progress is 'Executed; 100%', Result is 'In Process...'. THe phone is powered up, although I do have this odd little blue triangle in the status bar next to the signal strength. If I click 'Close' in RSD Lite I get a message "Application is currently busy. Closing application may DAMAGE the attached device.". Needless to say I'm a little unsure about this. Is it OK to unplug the USB cable and close RSD Lite?

PPS - OK, needed to *228 it. Still not sure about close RSD Lite though...

PPPS - Success! Went ahead and unplugged the USB cable, then closed RSD Lite. Did the 2.3.340 OTA, rebooted, and everything appears to be OK. Need to get my root access back, but that shouldn't be too bad.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipje:
You mean the theme? It's his own theme so you'll have to ask him to make a sense version of it.

Feature-wise it's just a basic evo rom right? So any regular HTC Sense rom would give you the same features.

I didn't realise that it was just evo base, thought it may have been specific for htc hd2.
[Streak 5 General] zkyevolved:
Hello everyone. I've got a question. I've been having issues with my keyboard. It seems to not register certain letters when I type. I have an officially unlocked streak running an official 2.2 rom. I have NO idea how to fix this. I've tried various keyboards and they all have the same issue (except for the default android keyboard, which I don't like too much).

I saw this link (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=848487). I'm not sure about anything. I have no idea what baseband I have or anything like that, nor if I have to be rooted or not. I'm so very confused about EVERYTHING Android. I've had this device for a total of a week. I'm not sure if anyone can give me a hand?

Have you ever had this issue? When I type messages it sometimes misses letters (but they register but not on the screen), for example, the letter jumps up (as if it knows it's being pressed), but then doesn't register on the screen. For example I can type:

"this is an example"

and it would come out "his is an exmple" or something like that.

I've downloaded multiple keyboards and they have the same issue (some more than others) and I'm not sure how to fix this. Any ideas? Suggestions?

Thanks!

Kent.

[Windows Phone 7 General] stillriza:
I had an HTC Magic. Tried 2.1/2.2 different roms. I enjoyed the Android experience and the fact that there was such a huge amount of apps and customization. What really bothered me was how fragmented Android and its devices became. Different devices with different specs giving you a different user experience. I also got pissed about the whole 'no updates after 2.1' fiasco from Rogers..because "the hardware on the magic didn't support it". Considering there were other devices out there with the same specs that got 2.2 officially and even 2.3 on the way. :confused:

Anyways.. in all honesty I never considered wp7 until I played with one at bestbuy and was totally blown away with how smooth and fluid everything was. I really had wanted a Samsung galaxy S but was disappointed with the lag at times and stuttering.. but was willing to live with it..but after I messed around with the wp7 at the store.. I couldn't stop thinking about it. I kept on thinking of how slow my phone was.. So I picked up a Samsung Focus and have never looked back. I also tried the desire Z, and a 2 other newer android phones..but android still exibited stuttering at times or lag.. but i am sure that will get fixed with time. Android's still young. Oh, I had done all my research on the galaxy (gps issue,random shutdown (sleep state), bluetooth audio issue with android) but i was content a fix would come soon after 2.3 officially released anyway.

The only thing I do miss.. is the ability to side load apps..which I know you can with chevron... And I hate having to go through zune for everything. I am sure in time there will be other 'homebrew' apps out there you can use in it's place.

The app selection so far isn't that bad..but its getting better. In general I'd say the apps are pricier than android..but most are excellent quality.

And I miss that there still is no "emulation" apps for say..snes or psx for wp7 yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JonP81:
I used to have a HTC Magic and Hero, and just got rid of a 3GS to go to WM7.

I think Android is great for tinkering, but most the time the phone was a problem for me.

I always get bored with apps and stuck to my core apps, I tried lots of widgets but being stuck in a GPRS area (out in the sticks) I found many widgets stopped me receiving phone calls (GPRS fault not the phone but took the shine off the phone), so they always ended up being uninstalled.

The random stuttering/lag along with many apps being on newer firmware to what I could get at the time were the straw that broke the camels back for me.

after that I had a 3GS, now theres apps galore and a nice smooth experience, but once I got bored of trying loads of apps, I found my main use was web/email.

So my main motivation for moving was a large screen (HD7) for web browsing. And I havnt looked back since, nice and fresh compared to iOS, and just feels alot more polished compared to Android.
