[G Tablet Android Development] rushless:
None the less- functionally, the orientation is off 90 degrees, hence why when you look at app pics in the market in landscape, the pictures are in portrait and vice versa. Seems that to position that the devs are wrong and the device is right is like a crazy person (Gtablet) is not crazy- everyone else is.

Only a few apps work correctly, Galaxy Tab and Archos 101 do not have this problem and the 95% of apps that do not work are not going to be modified for the Gtablet. I suggest the crazy person / odd one out, is the Gtablet and not all of the apps / devs. There needs to be the ability to adjust the orientation in settings. This (per Staples & Office Depot sales folks) is a main reason for returns. Fact is most apps do not work using the accelerometer and seems that is a mountain that will not move to us and our Gtablet- WE have to move to IT.

added: I do agree that the Gtablet is designed as intended (not truly broken accelerometer), but relative to 95% or more of apps- it is from the retailers and consumer's perspective and the fact that the apps will not be modded to work. Gtablet has to move to the mountain- Sorry for the blatant analogy. :)
[G Tablet Android Development] rothnic:
I was told that the Archos 101 has the same problem. The Galaxy Tab doesn't have some of the issues because the default orientation is portrait, not landscape.

This is a fix for the app devs, and is not something we can do on our end without a hacky fix. This is not a problem with how the Gtablet works, but with devices that have default landscape orientation. The Archos, Vega, Folio, Zpad, and Gtab all have this problem. It will not go away, and will be more pronounced as the new round of tablets come along.

This is not fixing apps for the Gtablet, it is fixing apps to not make assumptions about default screen orientation. The article explains this, and how to fix it.

I am trying to Flash the AXURA ROM. ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php...tion+2.5.1(12/21/2010)+Fixed+issues+themed!!! )

Problem is the forum will not allow me to download the "update.zip" file required to complete the Flash.

But it allowed me to download "disable-lagfix.7z"

When I click on the "update.zip" it logs me out and says -

[Windows Phone 7 General] nat45928:
Hi,

I wasn't sure where to put this so feel free to move it where it need be.

I recently got a new HD7 (love it!!! :D) but unfortunately the battery leaves a little to be desired, it only has a 1230mAh battery. This spring i need to survive a 15hr bus ride to Florida with no plugs in site for the whole time. So my question is who has a portable charger they like and or one that will help me last 15hr? I am looking at the Power Mat portable 2x which should give me almost 7 full charges on it 7800mAh but I am game for anything that will give me lots of power. :D

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
look at this : http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/htc/htc-hd7-t-mobile-9292.html

you can buy 1800MAh or 3900mAh :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] nat45928:
hummm....... Any idea how long the life time of these is?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
nop but mugen make very stronger battery life so u can't buy it eyes closed(i ordered one for my 7 mozart,i wait it :) )

here is the link for other user using mugen battery for their HTC

[Windows Phone 7 General] nat45928:
well.... I picked up the powermat, I have to admit its incredible..... its a great accessory for anyone on the go.
[Windows Phone 7 General] agentnobo:
That non-standard batteries are ugly!

I have APC UPB10 - portable USB-battery. It is very compact and has capacity nearly 10x more than standard HTC HD7 battery. This thing charges all my gadgets when I am not at home. And I've never been in situation when my portable charger was totally run out of power.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] amitsivak:
well I was fed up with the garbage phone and punched the screen over and over.. the screen doesn't work but everything else is fine. I need to copy all contacts from the phone to text file so I can copy it to my new phone. any software to do this or can someone tell me where they sit?

the lag, the junk UI the lack of video driver crippling the phone just drove me bokers. Never HTC again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
You can try Mymobiler;)
[EVO 4G General] vinscuzzy:
Sorry if this is old news, but I was in 2 malls this week doing some christmas shopping, and saw kiosks devoted ONLY to the Evo. There were about 6 Evos on display and 2 big evos like the iphones in the apple store. Funny thing was, one of them was setup right in-front of the apple store. Im sure that wasnt on accident! Go sprint!:D

PS, this was in Los Angeles Anyone else see these?
[EVO 4G General] nextohel:
Is that the new EVO 4G Tablet on the side of the kiosk? ;)
[EVO 4G General] mylasthope:
Saw these a couple months ago at Topanga Mall and Northridge Mall. It's one reason why I don't understand why the 42-inch nexus s is news worthy.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
...because it just came out and is the headlining Android phone? Which brings me to my main point, does anyone think it's sad that the EVO is still Sprint's flagship phone? During the same time period:

a. Verizon had the Incredible, then the Droid X, Fascinate, Droid 2, and now the Droid Pro.

b. AT&T had the iPhone 4, Captivate, BB Torch, and now a slew of WP7 phones.

c. T-Mo had the MyTouch 3G slide, Vibrant, G2, MyTouch 4G, and now the Nexus S.

..and Sprint? The EVO and Epic. What's up with that? This isn't a which phone is better thing, just pointing out how much Sprint is lacking on the high end phone selection.
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
Since as a Premier member I can only upgrade every 12 monts, I'm cool with it.
[EVO 4G General] Greenfieldan:
Sprint's NEVER had the biggest phone selection. They offer a few fantastic phones and dirt cheap plans. Honestly though, I'd pick the Evo and the Epic over any Android phone out there right now though haha. The Nexus S would be the only one I'd consider, but not anywhere near enough to leave spring haha
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
T-Mo is arguably as cheap plus it's HSPA+ is free. With them you got the options of: the Vibrant (it's SGS variant but is "meh"), G2 (Powerful and slick slider with Vanilla Android), MyTouch 4G (which is just about the/one of the best spec'd phones out), or the Nexus S (arguably the best phone out right now).

You could argue that you'll just upgrade every year in June but how is that a good thing? I mean, look at that Shift 4G thread where people are arguing on whether the EVO is still worth getting? It's 6 months old, I would feel extremely limited and not to mention shafted if I needed to get a high end Sprint phone right now.

I just think that Sprint has to step up with some more phones.
[EVO 4G General] chaoticallysweet:
+1 the rest of the carriers have copious amounts of crap phones. I would rather have a few good phones to pick from than many, many, bad ones. JMO
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
The thing is that they have both a bunch of bad ones and a bunch of good ones. Sprint has a few bad ones and a few good ones.
[EVO 4G General] coldsweat:
Yeah, but the EVO is still a stronger performing phone than most of the phones you listed there. Aside from the Droid Pro and Nexus S there isn't one phone there that would replace my EVO. Those WP7 phones aren't even a consideration imo....
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
The Droid Pro is trash IMO. I'd consider the Nexus S, iPhone 4, G2, and maybe (but probably not) a WP7 phone. It's all matter of preference but the fact is that you got more worthwhile phones to judge and I wish that was the case with Sprint.
[EVO 4G General] nextohel:
And what does all this crap have to do with the original question about the kiosk?
[EVO 4G General] Rainman95:
Agreed! I sell phones and I am yet to come by an android phone as reliable, fast, and attractive as the Evo. Sprint's got a lock on phone quality. All the other android phones you mentioned dont measure up...except the Nexus S.
[EVO 4G General] tangstang:
I sell more evos than any other phone, half the phones i sell are evos, the phone's over 6 months old, still crazy popular, and has hardware specs that other phones are just now finally beating. HTC did an awesome job with it, can't wait to see their next phone after the shift.
[EVO 4G General] tangstang:
Droid Pro is trash? It serves a purpose, small niche but still....

Iphone 4? Sorry but I like to use my phone as a phone, that means dropping calls is unacceptable.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Obviously the Evo is still top notch, notice you're still here ;)
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Could it be that people are on contract and there was nothing better to choice from on Sprint other than the EVO? Yes, it could.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
All carriers will help you with the cost of your ETF. Call and ask, it's Christmas season.
[EVO 4G General] apheonixboy:
I rather walk in the sprint store and see a few great phones that will fit my needs... maybe like a front facing camera? Or a 4.3 inch screen? HDMI out? 10+mbps of data speed? A kick stand to kick back in the office and watch Hulu at full speed? Or play Need for Speed Shift while waiting for my girl? Maybe use Fring to video chat with her since she also has a front facing camera? Or how about getting on the XDA app and laugh at stupid posts people make regarding sprint and phones and trophys about tours..

Oh crap.. i just dropped my keys.. let me use my twin-led flashlight to find them...

I found them!!

Where was i?

I was jamming out... downloading music with Gtunes.. i can also use windows explorer/music/copy all... dragging and dropping the music files i need without connecting to itunes and syncing...

I just got a notification on my Sony Ericsson Live View... i can see my twitter replys without taking my evo out of my pocket...

Aww crap... i lost wifi signal at work, so did my co-workers... ill just turn on my Hotspot.. there.. me and my friends have full speed 4G signal on thier pcs via my internal router on my Evo...

Im gonna watch youtube... let me connect my HDMI enabled phone on my 42 inch tv...

[Epic 4G General] Orbiting234:
Has anyone gotten the new 3D part of the latest Google Maps to work on their Epic 4G? I'm in an area that is supported but when I try to go to 3D view (two finger down stroke on map) no buildings appear. Tried on both DK28 and DI18. Am I doing something wrong or is this feature not working right on the Epic?
[Epic 4G General] APOLAUF:
Works fine. Make sure terrain and satellite maps are off. Zoom in closer. Pretty much all the way.
[Epic 4G General] drrayl:
Yeah I thought it wasn't working until I got to las vegas because there are actually buildings high enough for 3d view
[Epic 4G General] jeffyv2:
U can't get 3d views on everything

Correct me if I'm worng

[Epic 4G General] decalex:
To test it, just type las Vegas, or downtown los angeles. Then zoom in. It only works in the cities where the models have been created :). But if your tilt view works, the 3d should as well.

[Epic 4G General] ddpacino:
It seems thats 3D isn't everywhere. I had to go all the way to downtown Baltimore to get the 3D buildings, and they are nowhere else to be seen in my city except there. I guess Google is still working in bringing that feature to every inch of this country.
[Vibrant General] jzero88:
So I got Dungeon Defenders, I am running JL5 stock Odexed.

When I start the app it will start up fine showing the beginning logo for Trendy Entertainment then will get a black scree. I let it sit for a few minutes and nothing. Then it asks to force close? Any ideas on how to fix this, thanks!
[Vibrant General] iwillkillyou:
That happen to me once, just close the app with the task manager or reboot the phone and try again.
[Vibrant General] anilo:
Sorry, sort of a dumb question but is there a ROM that gives us 2.2.1? I heard it's superior than 2.2. I am currently running Nero v3 w/ Voodoo enabled and I LOVE it but you know what they say; "curiosity kills the cat". Thjanks...
[Vibrant General] jayprime:
None of the galaxy s devices are running 2.2.1 so it would have to be a port from another phone.

Fear the beard...
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
Wrong. There is a leak of Galaxy S running 2.2.1 and I believe that there is a 2.2.1 ROM by jellette but taken down due to drama.

2.2.1 isn't worth it, there are a lot of bugs and 2.2 is farly more stable.
[Vibrant General] jellette:
It is not worth it - unless you live in an area with poor reception and you can guarantee low frequencies hit your phone - once it hits 80 and above it soft reboots - as far as I know there is no headway on a fix for this - the problem exists in JPU, JPX and JPY - there are still a few hardcore Alpha testers working their butts off looking for work arounds though.
[Vibrant General] anilo:
OK thanks. I'll patiently wait for the Gingerbread port :-)

Good stuff, thanks. I've been longing to root this phone, but I refuse to do it without a factory .zip which I can flash to restore defaults. Too many people have various issues after rooting, just don't want to take that chance. Can't wait to see what CM puts out though.
[Nexus S General] hah2110:
what issues? You make a nandroid to go back to
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
I'm completely with you on this,need that safety net before any modding of any kind.
[Nexus S General] mprziv:
Make a nandroid backup.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
So to clarify, if I do the following ...

1) factory reset

2) unlock bootloader

3) root phone

4) make nandroid backup

I can then restore the nandroid backup at any time and phone will be completely stock, recovery, bootloader and all exactly as it is now with no sign of modding whatsoever?

I haven't had a lot of time to read into this so not sure as yet what's involved in the above steps but in a nutshell am I on the right lines? Theres a lot of confusing (and conflicting) info out there!

Thanks.
[Nexus S General] allen099:
While I understand what you're saying, it seems like some people are having issues even after injecting root. I can live without Titanium or drocap2 for a few days longer while Google drops the official restore...although I do want tethering asap.
[Nexus S General] ikon8:
?? You can already tether on stock. Also, I haven't heard of anyone having problems just from rooting the phone, in fact, all you're really doing is unlocking the bootloader and installing an apps to give you su permissions. Like the others said, you can always nandroid back to stock and relock the bootloader if you want to.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
The major things wrong with the CM7 alpha on the NS are the Camera and Wifi and other things you would consider major
[Nexus S General] irishrally:
Cam and wifi work on alpha2.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Once it hits beta ill grab it up but until then im way happy with what i got now :)
[Nexus S General] yungfresh:
guys come on. This is a dev phone. This is what Nexus is about. Why not flash? Cyanogen is the most consistant and top quality Roms. I love the stock just as much as the next guy, but I didn't buy this phone to be boring. Just flashed CM7 and all is good. updates should make it even better!! Let the fun begin!!
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
I'm all for that sure but not until I have a simple and sure fire way of returning absolutely everything to stock, out of the box condition.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Im personally waiting for Amon_RA to release his NS recovery :)

and ya, the whole not having a sure fire way to go back to stock is a downer.

Google needs to release the stock ROM in its entirety
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
I'm sure they'll do that soon... or at least I hope they will. Only then will the fun begin for me!
[Nexus S General] ikon8:
Just wondering, why do you guys need a surefire way to return to stock? Just reflash stock rom and relock bootloader.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Is it really that simple though? My understanding is that the only available 'stock' rom is not in fact stock, rather its an adapted rom as Google have yet to release the actual one?

I want to be able to return to normal in case I want to return the phone.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
you cant reflash the stock recovery over CWM either....so when they release the stock ROM officially all you would have to do is re lock the bootloader and flash the rom and it will overwrite EVERYTHING

i was a hardcore CM user on my N1 , flashed nightlies every day but i just dont see anything in CM for the NS that would make me jump right into an alpha
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
That sounds like just what I'm waiting for. Wonder when it will come. Until that time I guess we just have to be patient.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
Im sure it is on the servers, just a matter of time before someone manages to find it...they always do
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Here's hoping for a swift release then :)
[Nexus S General] yungfresh:
Why not just do a nandroid backup on cwm, then if need be just restore it and if necessary lock the bootloader. It just doesn't seem like a deal breaker.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
not having a current method to get rid of CWM is a deal breaker for me
[Nexus S General] hah2110:
Not like best buy checks the recovery console. They don't even know what that is.
[Nexus S General] yungfresh:
exactly my point. Lol. They dumb as hell when it comes to this type of stuff.
[Nexus S General] yungfresh:
Besides all you have to do is flash the 2.3.1 update and it reverts cwm back to stock. So of we go!!

It hasn't been made, the WiFi chip probably doesn't support it in Android, and if you're that desperate, boot into Ubuntu and run aircrack from there.
