[G Tablet General] fasteddie58:
Well I picked this up at Sears today for $380 with a mail i rebate for the docking station. I tried to update the firmware and kept getting a failure, talked to tech support and changed some settings. The update still failed and tech support suggested charging for 24 hours, they claim this will help. I have used the G Tab with stock software and it seems really fast. I won't download any apps until the software is updated, supposedly this update will fix some major bugs. I think I'm going to like this tablet once the someware is updated.

Regards!

Ed

Two suggestions:

1- Charge it (in that, I agree with customer service)

2- Update the stock firmware as soon as it's charge (not a mod, just a newer stock update). The reason why is that there are bugs in the original firmware where the system may freeze, which you want to avoid.

3- Wipe your user data. It really helps with a lot of user issues, like force closes.
[G Tablet General] fasteddie58:
Well I turned on my tablet tonight and it was ready to install the update and did it successfully. I can see the difference in performance already. I'm happy so far and how do you wipe the user data? Also another question about a game called bejeweled. I tried to download and the site was asking which device I was using to confirm compatability....viewsonic wasn't listed so I could not download so now what do I do?

Thanks!

Settings -- Security. I would recommend it, before you start installing apps - if you already have installed apps, then no harm no foul.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camoway:
can someone make an app the can take the lower range audio and make it corisponed with the vibration ringer in your phone.

Its just for fun but it would be cool.

and kill your batt.

but i have seen it on a sprint phone alone time ago it was dialed in and it

was awsome!!

like so the bass hits on a ring tone and you feel it in your pocket. hehhe

if some one is willing to do this im am willing to donate =)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinnydakid:
So all this app would do is play a very low pitched sound or would it need to be a specific frequency for this to work?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdkxtreme:
No. He means that use the vibration to imitate a subwoofer. That would sound pretty cool. Maybe just a novelty app but definitely cool nonetheless
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chucked:
My old nokia use to vibrate with the beat/pace of the polyphonic ringtone.

Id love to enable that feature on my vibrant!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msnuser111:
I would love to have this on my vibrant too,all the major companies used to have this on their normal phones,they were called vibtones,I don't know why they stopped.

After a couple years your going to make allot of money! I don't want any at all.... If you could my name in the credits for the idea. Would be thanks enough agian Thank you so much. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbrad:
I think that's kind of rude I mean he created the app I mean I u dersta d if you helped him encode but if all you did is create the thread you don't need any thinks IMO but ofcourse its the devolopers choice
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinzy98:
He has a good point. You don't just create a ROM overnight just because you had this idea doesn't mean you get credit for it. He was more than likely already working on it
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camoway:
This thread is 2-3 years old. So eventuality some one will make the app because its a cool idea.

Ya guess given enough time some random person will do it on there own.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romitkin:
I think that what happened was quite the opposite. The dev created the app, and then he was searching on google for threads of people asking about such app, and posting the link. I don't really think that the idea came from this thread because it was posted 2 years ago. It would not take 2 years to develop that app.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
Any chance of getting this app compatible with 2.2 Froyo? I like my 2.2 Roms too much to upgrade. JellyBean has GPS problems and 2.3 is terrible IMO. Maybe you could post the apk and I can see if it works? Playstore won't let me download, says incompatible device unfortunately.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValkA:
2.2 doesn't support visualizer API's so it isn't possible..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
O I see, thanks for the response, ill be sure to check this app out if I upgrade again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jenuine:
Anybody have an idea where to look for a refurbished Nexus one for under $200 or do any of you guys possibly have an extra/no longer using it for sale?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
Good luck with that they still go for 290 and up. just save up alittle more cash sell few things on ebay that you dont need and you can get one. Or get a lg optimus or a hd2 they go for 200-250 and you can hack the hd2 and is a beast i sold mine i kinda regret it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jenuine:
Seriously still 290^? I really just need something temporary and up to par hence why i want the nexus one. Should i go for a g1 or the old mytouch until i hop on a plan in 4-5 months?

A n1 would be nice though lol
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
what phone do you currently have?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redbullcat:
I'm in the UK, but it's the same principle: I got my Nexus One for £190 from a shop selling refurbished phones. It's in poor condition (scuffs on the four corners) but other than that it's perfect! So it is possible to find them, you just need to look around a bit!

Good luck mate :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnHenrySDM:
Isn't that pretty close to $300? ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jenuine:
I don't own any phone right now, my touch pro 2 broke and it wasn't on contract either.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
whats wrong with the touch pro 2 maybe you can fix it alot of people sell parts for it on ebay. I still think the touch pro 2 was the best qwerty phone out there. I just look around ebay and a t-mobile Snap running windows 6.5 goes for 85.00 used and had the same specs as the touch pro 2 I think that would be a great device. I know windows mobile is old but for less than 100 bucks you get t-mobile 3g and wifi unless you wanna spend 100+ for a g1. In my opinion if you short on cash get a 20.00 flip phone and save those 200 to buy a nice phone that you really like.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jenuine:
Well i'd rather something better than the touch pro 2, something that i can atleast plug some headphones into lol, but i have around $160 ( and some extra for shipping), all i need is the phone itself, just asking around here to see if anyone is willing to sell one for around that price.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andynx1:
It is, but this is a country where a nexus s costs close to $700!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i_is_surf:
I just bought a second N1 with desktop dock and car dock for $344 off of Ebay two weeks ago. I don't think you'll find an N1 in good condition on there for less than $200. I would look at the various Android or N1 forums and you "may" be able to work out a deal with someone.

Good luck!

[EVO 4G General] Tempest_Inc:
Im think of moving to CM, I'm running Calkulin's Sense Rom no and i can't do with out a Good Calendar that will pull Google Calendar & Exchange. I also need a decent Clock widget as similar to the Sense on as i can get with an alarm clock. Also a decent people widget would be nice. these are the only things holding me back. You CM People here is your challenge to convert yet another.
[EVO 4G General] conflikt:
Pure Calender widget. Pure grid calendar. Also free ones in the market. If you want to incorporate missed calls/mms / exchange email/ twitter/Facebook then use pure messenger. If you need to know more Widgets let me know.

Beautiful Widgets for clock, or gtabsimiclock. Fancy Widgets as well, clokr too and tajm. search for clock widget in the market.

Contacts widget for your contacts.
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
+1 on Beautiful Widgets. If you pick up the paid version of LauncherPro, you also get a nice calendar and people widget (among others) that are similar to sense.
[EVO 4G General] Tempest_Inc:
I just wanted to then you both. I used grit calendar, launched pro for people. Beautiful Widgets for clock and weather for the sense like expierience withfull support of Hotmail, Gmail, and exchange syncing.

Has anyone in india got the 1.72 update for their desire hd? bought DHD last week and when i checked for updates it shows there are no updates for my phone. When checked the software version its still on 1.32.720.5.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PG101:
OTA is going to take a while... Over The Air update is only possible when HTC releases the update theru the carrier that you are on.. in your case.. when Airtel agrees with HTC to release, only then you will have the OTA update to 1.72... officially.. yes unofficially u can get it... but be careful, if you do the 1.72 update you wont be able to root your device.. YET! :)

Cheers!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wk101010:
I got my Desire HD from UK and its updated to 1.72, my carrier is Vodafone.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krunal1981:
I didn't buy my phone from Airtel so I don't think I gotta wait for Airtel to approve the update .
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geekoo:
I asked HTC India and this is their reply

Did you get the update through Vodafone, while in India? Or did you get the update while in UK?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krunal1981:
Mate , only if your phone is locked to a carrier is when you gotta wait for the Carrier ( Vodafone, O2 , T-Mobile) to release the software update. For users in country like India , the updates are never dependant on the carrier.

For example , i bought my Google Nexus One from the United States unlocked . The moment Google released 2.2 and 2.2.1 i got the OTA update on my phone.

Its just that HTC India hasnt released the update for DHD's , btw dont waste your time by asking HTC India , they are useless.

I guess its better to play the waiting game.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bharathgdk:
Its gonna take a while for the update in INDIA!

The problem z HTC INDIA is different from HTC Asia!

So we need 2 get a seperate update from HTC!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
As far as I know 1.72 got pulled from all markets due to bugs. If this is correct I don't think you will ever see 1.72 officially as htc develops are now hard at work and focussed on Gingerbread.

Sent from my Desire HD pocket rocket.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellRa1SeR:
The 1.72 update and the 1.8 update was not released in India.

Rather we will see a direct update to Gingerbread so you need not worry about 2.2 updates.

I don't think that DHD is sold in India locked to the service providers. All DHDs are unlocked. So as soon as India -specific region update comes up they will pass it on through OTA.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fastnite:
i see a few have encounter this problem but yet to find a solution.

Problem: Everytime i make a call or receive a call the screen goes black and only the buttons work but it still useless without any display on screen. I have already tried turning off the auto bright but still doesnt work.

This happen in every android i use but phone doesn't act up when i am using winmo.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yascorpion:
I have the same problem, please help !!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] m2shakiba:
well the answer is simple because the proximity sensor doesn't work properly

and you have to either change your build or i don't know figure something out

for me the proximity sensor works

and i am using nexus one build
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yascorpion:
Thank you,I will try your build
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pedroxxx:
Please share with us the result, because I have also tried several builds, and it does not work properly on any. Mostly with Desire HD builds which I'd like to use and it is frustrating. Thanks.:)

I tried more than 7 builds but it didn't work,I spent like 5 hours to fix it but nothing worked and it's really frustrating. cauz I can't know who call me sometimes and see how many minutes I spent.:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( please share if you have any results.

thank you very much !!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pedroxxx:
the issue is less sensitivity with the proximity sensor. Three reasons which I saw:

1) mechanical reason for less sensitive sensor could be screen protector which is covering left top side of the device. Remove protector from this area where you see two dots.

2) dust between sensor and screen. Blow some air between screen and plastic cover of the device. Perhaps with vacuum-cleaner.

3) this is not your problem apparently, but generally European type HD2 is less sensitive on light according the YouTube video I saw, comparing with TMOUSE device. On the other hand current kernels are the same for both devices. In this matter, put your device during call under the direct light and you will see.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] trumpeldor:
Screeb lite +Android assistant +Brightness Auto off did the trick for me .

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labnjab:
I posted this on the froshedyo page too.

For about a week now my fiance and I have noticed that our service has been getting really bad. We have verizon and usually have great service anywhere we go and where we live we have usually full service but lately its been going to no service and then back to kinda full and then full.

EWhat I was wondering is is it a rom thing or could it be that the baseband version we have is sprint so maybe that is causing the bad service or just verizon taking time switching over the towers to 4g.

We really love this rom and dont want to switch if we dont have to. What can we do to go back to the way our service was before? Thank you for any help
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
Have you noticed any difference in 3G speeds, call quality, or sending texts? It could be that the phone is doing it. Which radio did you put on? You can flash xtrSense and put what changes on the phone you need to on there. Just make a NAND backup in Amon_RA and you can go back to the way you want.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labnjab:
The speed seems fine it just drops the calls and picks them right back up once it gets service again. The radio we have is the one that came with the froshedyo v10 rom 2.42.01.04.27

Is flashing xtr sense the only way to fix it or can I fix it on the rom we have? Also would flashing a verizon radio make a difference. Thanks for the help so far.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CondemnedSoul:
The dropped call issue is a 2.2 issue. It's not the rom or the radio. It's a known issue with all 2.2 Eris roms. Unfortunately no fix has been found for it yet.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labnjab:
Right I knew the dropped call issue is a froyo thing but the phone also goes in and out of service while just sitting there not even doing anything to the phone and it never did that with our stock 2.1. Maybe it is just verizon. I dunno.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I just wanted to make sure you know that rooted ROMs usually don't include radios, and FroShedYo definitely doesn't. The reason is that screwing up a flash of a radio be pretty dangerous, so the rooted ROMs leave the radio alone.

Traditionally, once using a rooted ROM, the only way to get a new radio version is by manually flashing just the radio.

[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Hi guys, I recently used the 'fix permissions' option in ROM Manager, which caused my SMS contact pictures to disappear. I then was trying to fix this by doing:

su
chmod 666 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/files/*

in Terminal Emulator on the device and dropped it :o right at :

su
chmod 666 /data/data/

anyways, long story short......./data/data/ is now 666, the device just constantly force closed eveything and is now in a constant boot loop. So any advice in the best way to fix this? I have tried booting into recovery and doing 'fix permissions' but this does not fix it.

Would fastboot allow me to connect to PC and chmod /data/data/ to the correct permissions? (and what would those be??) Or is it screwed and do I need to factory reset?

Many thanks for any hrlp guys
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Have you tried re-flashing your ROM form recovery, this should reset the permissions
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
To be honest I'm new to Android and don't know which img that would be or how to go about doing it. Would doing this wipe any of my data? I was hoping there would be a simple way of getting a terminal through my pc and chmod from there (if I knew the correct permissions).
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
fix permissions will do it for the files within the folder so if it where that simple I think it you would have fixed it 666 gives read/write permissions to everyone so I don't see that would have caused your problems, what ROM are you currently running? If it's a custom one simply reflash it, which should preserve all your Data if not you may need to run an RUU for your vendor/market which will wipe everything
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Thanks for the reply, I'm running stock ROM with eng hboot, recovery obviously and custom kernel. The reason I ask about fastboot chmod is because I'm not 100% 'fix permissions' is working via recovery.

Also, just for knowledge sake, what .img would be for what from my backup?

- .android_secure.img

- boot.img

- cache.img

- data.img

- nandroid.md5

- recovery.img

- system.img
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Re-reading your original post, something weird is going on here as running 'fix permissions' shouldn't have caused any grief in the first place, possibly your OC is too aggressive for your CPU? (although it shouldn't be).
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Plenty of people have come across the same issue when running 'fix permissions' from ROM Manager. It causes contact pictures to not display in the SMS apps in some cases.

Also, I remember running an option from recovery and it did nothing (even though reported completed) hence why I want to overrule the fix permissions from CM Recovery 2.5.1.3 and try to run commands into the device someway (via fastboot if possible or another method).

I just need to know what permissions should be for /data/data/ and how I would go about running commands to the device. And failiing that, what .img would be needed flashed to get a working device again with as little data lost as possible nd how to go about flashing it... fastboot or recovery update.zip?)
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
assuming you are running cM 2.5.1.3 recovery?, have you a nandroid backup to fall back ON, restoring that, from recovery, would be my first step. If not Modaco has a stock ROM that you could try flashing from recovery which should retain your data
[Desire HD General] fubofo:
Yeah I have backups but from a while ago (first boot to be honest lol). But what should I restore and how? (system.img or data.img? as its /data/data/ that seems screwed)
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Not sure how a partial restore would go, I normally do a full restore via recovery
