[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
+1. I had a TP2 as well, and the stock ROM sucked.

I am still running the stock ROM (1.34) on my Desire Z, and I love it. I'm sure the custom ROMs are great/even better, but the stock ROM on the DZ is so much better as an experience compared to my old WinMo phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michd2:
Thnx to everyone who answered my question! I've got enough info now. My father is going to buy the Desire Z and I guess he's gonna like it ;)

Android was ahead of wimo7 before google even bought it.....

Avoid actually paying money for anything that comes with MS on it... you should only pay for things that you actually USE.

How can you not use the keyboard? I've tried struggling my way through the IME, but despite the missing characters, I continually find myself opening the keyboard. Much MUCH easier to type with real physical buttons.

WHAT 4G service? Despite the lies, tmobile does NOT have ANY kind of 4G service. What they have is 3G@14.4 Mb/s. It is STILL 3G and 3G ONLY.

You could always be waiting for the next thing... there will ALWAYS be something better if you wait just a little longer. At some point, you have to actually buy the thing.

And the other thing is that the wait could be longer than you expect. It took TWO WHOLE YEARS for them to produce a phone that was a worthwhile upgrade over DREAM. A whole lot of phones have had some really compelling benefits, but considering the whole package, nothing else has yet been able to measure up.... so go ahead and wait until October 2012.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
That's what I used to say too. But someone else here pointed out a press release from the ITU, who have *changed* their definition of 4G to now include this sort of HSPA+.

Who said the big companies have no influence over the standards bodies ?

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] dudin03:
The app was removed from the market, but I've read that they released a version for qvga phones. it's v0.006 I think.

Anyone got a copy? would really love this LWP running on the wildfire
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
edit: nvm .
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] zamolxees:
Timester was not removed from the market at any point since it was released.

Also, qvga is not supported, perhaps that is why timester will not show up on qvga phones when searching the market.

However timester runs on medium and high density screens.

This is the development thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=819988

You could do it manually (a drag, yes). However, thats the default for adw launcher (if you have stock i'd recommend trying it anyways). I'll look into it, see if there is some other way

Don't know why I keep getting like. 1 mbps everywhere I go. Is it just sprint in my area? Or do I have a hardware problem. I rarely see 3 bars and I never see 4 like ever. I remember doing technofiles Verizon prl Hack but it didn't like my phone very much so I RUUd and updated my prl. I don't think that's my problem. I'm in a heavily populated suburb of Sacramento idk why the coverage would suck...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtr145r:
your best bet is to try the prl again.... thats the only way i ever get a faster 3g connection. i switched back and forth just to see my sprint speeds again. lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1Brite1:
I am having the same problems. I have searched for answers and have tried running the newest RUU for the 3.70 version and it still isn't working any better. I went to my local Sprint store and they said there was no problem. If I do the Sprint Zone "I need help" and it checks my connection status it shows that both voice and 3G connections are good. Something is going on and not sure if I need to take phone back and exchange because of bad radio. 4G does work when I drive 40 miles to a city that has it. So, that is not a problem. I know there is another thread on data connection problems but people read different ones and hopefully someone who has experienced and found a solution can give us some insight. Nothing like paying $94.00 a month for less than dial-up speeds!! Thanks and have a great day to all.

[Droid 2 Accessories] ikilledkenny:
ive never used one, so i ordered one to try out
[Droid 2 Accessories] juliend:
I had one for my old blackberry, and one for my eris, loved them both. I def plan on getting one for my D2.
[Droid 2 Accessories] jhollender:
I am returning my Otterbox Cummuter case. I was very disappointed with the fit of the top part of the case. It leaves a big gap on the lower left side, and when you slide the keyboard out, you have to push on that flimsy part. Seems like bad engineering. I think it would get snagged in my pocket also. I will be going back to the Seido Innocase - seemed a lot better after comparing the two.

Review thread @ droidforums.net /forum/droid-2-accessories/115571-droid-2-otterbox-commuter-case-review.html
[Droid 2 Accessories] KingWaffle:
I don't have any issues with my commuter case, but I will agree, I am disappointed with the build quality of it.
[Droid 2 Accessories] marcort:
I have had Otterboxes for two of my Blackberries and had absolutely no problems with them. So I recommended the Commuter to my buddy for his Droid 1. The top part immediately broke within a couple days. He called Otterbox who happily replaced it for him. The second one immediately broke. When he called back they actually told him they know there is a problem with the Droid Commuter cases. However, they have no intension of stopping the sale of a bad product. I'm assuming the Droid 2 cases will most likely have the same problem. So I'm steering clear.

Just my 2 cents. I was a fan of Otterbox until they burned my buddy.
[Droid 2 Accessories] kwheel596:
I've heard of people having issues, however I've had mine for a while. When I'm out and about its in my pocket. I've dropped it (onto a hardwood floor) once. I personally have had no issues with it...Except that it wont fit in the home dock or vehicle dock :(
[Droid 2 Accessories] marcort:
Speaking of docks. I bought the really thin snap on case Verizon had in their store. I was thinking of getting a dock for my office. Does anyone have experience using just a regular droid2 dock with a case (before I run out and buy one?)
[Droid 2 Accessories] kwheel596:
Yes it will work, the dock has an removable insert to fit phones with/without case. As does the vehicle dock.
[Droid 2 Accessories] marcort:
Sweet. Thanks for the info.
[Droid 2 Accessories] mcmillanje:
Nice, thanks
[Droid 2 Accessories] Topplayer2g:
does this case work with the extended battery???
[Droid 2 Accessories] kwheel596:
No, it wont work with it.
[Droid 2 Accessories] NiceGuysFinishLast:
Sure it will, if you leave the battery door off.
[Droid 2 Accessories] Abowersq:
Here is an interesting idea...in my search for the best cover/case, i have purchased at separate times both the otterbox and the verizon cover for the Droid2. IM now using the otterbox back, cuz it looks cool, and the verizon front because it fits better than the otterbox front. So far im liking my setup.

I just flashed to assonance and there is this thing called voltage control. Have no idea what it does.. anyone know?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Allows you to tweak your voltage settings on your phone.. and controls overclocking.

... Have to let the experts tell you how to tweak the settings though.

Just wondering if its just my tab or just the tab in general, this thing is always freezing n just runs like its a frigin g1, slow! I have the sprint version, anyone else have the same probs?
[Galaxy Tab General] zozodouce:
sory to tell dude it's your tab, i gave up my ihone4 & ipad for my tab. it's one of the best devise i ever had, maybe omething is wrong with your tab take it back get an other one.:D
[Galaxy Tab General] nigelw:
Got a Tab last night, and even after flashing to the latest ROM it is rather unreliable in terms of performance and lag. I've already experienced several complete lock ups which is more than my Desire has had in 6 months.

So I will be returning mine for a refund tomorrow. Think I'll wait for the v2 with 2.3 or Honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab General] notinkeys:
Got mine loaded to the gills, and it zips along just fine, not a single lockup.
[Galaxy Tab General] ykman1:
So there's no way to fix this? I can't take it back cause it wasn't brought new, I did a reset n started all over with it tho but I have these probs... I'm guess the stupid sprint activation thing has somethin to do with it but I can't get rid of it untill I root my device... there's gotta be a reason this thing is messed up?!
[Galaxy Tab General] heythorp:
I sat in a sprint store playing with their tab for about an hour. I was blown away with the speed of it. If you are not finding the Tab peppy I would look into bringing it back.

I would also say that the sprint tab i was using was a much better experience than the ATT one I bought. I kept saying to myself something is not right here. Then I flashed it and all is good.
[Galaxy Tab General] Phone_Junkie:
Mine was suffering from bad browser lag until I flashed it. I don't have a Sprint Tab though. Mine is T-Mobile. I'm running Roto-JMC. It's very smooth now!!!!
[Galaxy Tab General] simon2901:
Hmm

i just watced a lagg fixed galaxy s phone on youtube run super super fast.

he said it was about 2700 quadrant score ( iknow its not a good method) i dont even get half of that and my tab is so much slower.

I am keeping it though i really cant see this not getting to the galaxy s smoothness level sometime within the next months, whats your thoughts? will it get as smooth, i mean why would it not? i cant even use flash in any of the browsers except youtube mobile, and i the old desire running hd flash!

it should be able to be soo much smoother with future firmware updates or hacks?

btw. Kindle app on this is like the best e reader ever! if u dont mind only 10 hour batterylife.
[Galaxy Tab General] Hanson68:
I have the Sprint version full stock, and I have no freezing or lagging.

Just a long shot here, but on my Evo I was having some lock-ups out of the blue, and when I finally connected it to my PC via USB, it told me that the SD card had errors. Ran scandisk, fixed the errors, and then everything was back to normal.
[Galaxy Tab General] sillyrabbitt123:
i have verizon version and its blazing FAST! however it did reboot a couple of times on me but i am sure its an app i have downloaded not the tab
[Galaxy Tab General] Asori:
My Tab runs fantastic. I also have a lag fixed SGS. A lag fix switches from Samsung's proprietary file system to an ext4 file system and therefore will not help general performance, it will namely help loading apps for the first time and saving. After that, you will not be able to see an improvement. This is also why lag fix methods increase the quadrant score.

If you are seeing ANY speed issues with the Tab, you should return it. If you bought it used, you should have got some kind of guarantee... they probably sold it because it was running slowly.
[Galaxy Tab General] ftgg99:
You guys really have to look at the software youre running on your tabs. Mine is running flawlessly and has been almost from day one.

Start by removing bloatware and unnecessary services. Flash to the latest supported firmware using Kies. Use firefox and Dolphin mini as your browsers. Turn on airplane mode + wifi to save battery. Look into a replacement launcher like adw ex or launcherpro. Get no lock to remove the lockscreen. Etc.

Android is all about user imput - if you dont customise it you will never feel its benefits over an ipad!
[Galaxy Tab General] famanfwppc:
It's a good idea to try different task managers like the one in ASTRO i.e. and try to catch the faulty one. I found some issues in using the yahoo mail client.
[Galaxy Tab General] famanfwppc:
Mean the faulty process that uses much processor time, in above post.
[Galaxy Tab General] simon2901:
Hmm it is not like i havent done all of the above it is still not as smooth as a galaxy s phone. I really think there is some firmware difference since all danish tabs i have tryed run like this. Tryed 4 my own encluding. In Denmark people are selling tabs allover the place since many regular customers are disappointed. Got mine half price so i am still quiet content :) but it does lagg and with newest official firmware jj3 via kies. Flash in any browser except youtube mobile is not usable
[Galaxy Tab General] Geletis:
My Tab is faster than my Galaxy S, has been from day one. My Galaxy S isn't slow, it's running a very fast Froyo rom. My Galaxy S phone is the fastest phone I've ever seen, but it's still not as fast as my Tab.

I haven't rooted my Tab or uninstalled any bloatware or disabled any services. If the Tab were laggy, I would have done all of those things. I haven't because I don't like to mess with what works.

My guess would be that your carrier has something installed that is slowing it down. I can't imagine what, I have tons installed and nothing has ever slowed it down.

That said, Don't use the stock browser, it can be laggy, especially on Flash heavy sites. Try the Miren browser and set Flash to "on demand".
[Galaxy Tab General] ykman1:
Weird how some people have problems and some dont, I have the Epic also and it flys! But this damn tab is horrible and I too experience the browser lag, restarts, freezing, u name it! I saw that someone did mention they had alot of problems till they rooted and flashed it so if you could be so kindly to share info on what exactly you did it would be appreciated, especially cause others that have flashed didnt have the same outcome... If it dont work for me then its goin on ebay cus as of now this thing is just a paperweight...

[Galaxy Tab General] cellwarrior6:
My Tab flies with no freezing... Rooted with z4 and use oclf. If i get lag in the Dolphin browser I try this trick I discovered on xda: Hold the power button to get the power off menu, then press the back button to exit that menu. Thats it. Browser will increase in speed and fluidity!

If you are rooted, market enabler and change to the US sim.

Whats your CSC or how its called? (Flashed a rom with a kies hack and changed to KOR maybe?)

Whats your ROM version anyway?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juno14:
Thank you pagot! thumbs toes way up :D

I am using Doc's rom and CSC should be the original coming with it.

If I change CSC or kies registry to KOR, do I still need to install market enabler?:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAGOT:
Nooooooooooo I wrote it wrong. My english sucks!!!!

Dont change the CSC :D . Sorry (was meant if it didnt change to the BAAAAAAAAAD KOR while you were flashing)

Anyway try the market enabler :) . Just backup your setting on the first screen and on the second just long press to fake the first provider there , which is US.

I flashed my Bell i9000m with the Speedmod rom, and it is running great. However is it possible to revert back to the stock kernel for upgrades via Kies?

Another stupid question, can Darky's rom be flashed via Odin on top of Speedmod?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectre85:
You can flash the stock JL2 kernel on top of the speed mod yes. If you want to keep the speedmod and are only interested in being able to upgrade, you could use the kies registry hack and trick kies into thinking your phone is at an older model, this includes the kernel, however i'm not sure what will happen because some of these roms only have some of the data needed in the flash, example is that the stock 2.1 has a sddata folder and non of the roms after that have that folder.....

Darky's rom is meant to be flashed with clock work recovery, so if you want to flash it just follow his instructions. it comes in a zip file so it can only be flashed via clockwork. Do not unzip because it's signed

Has anyone figured out the problem with changing notifications? My email notification (gmail) switches to a random mp3 file at least once a day, and I don't connect the phone to the computer in storage mode, so unavailability of the assigned sound cannot be blamed here. It's not a big deal, but rather an annoyance.

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
As noted in the stickied FAQ at the top, this is a known issue.

Connecting the phone to the computer at all causes the phone to go into a "pre-mount prepping stage" in which the OS will start separating itself from the SD card partition. I don't know if that's technically what happens, but that's what's been my observation.
