[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomathplz:
OK this is a question and what i did for a temp fix

I tether my phone alot because i have no internet at my house right now so what i want to know is at what temp does the phone just stops working ive had it happen to me once but the screen wouldn't turn on so i don't know what temp it was at.

My temp fix was to take some ice in a bag water and salt and lay bag of mix on phone and checked on a few time to see temp and it was around 80*F and but it got around 75*F the phone it self seemed like it started to lag

So my question is what is the operating temp for my vibrant

it has nero v3 and the jk6 modem

what else can i do to this phone cuse im bored

Edit: temp of phone was 109 to 112*F
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willsnews:
I've heard 116 and up is bad could be deadly to the vibrant but some phones are able to recover better than others from something like that you know how the top of the vibrant has a smell like that of cocoa butter our shea butter id say if you smell that without the phone being up to your face you might be in trouble

And please post in the correct place next time q&a would be the place for something like this
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuLLeT_PrOOf_wAlleTz:
Im always tethering for the same reason no internet in my house. I have never gotten no problems with the phone not functioning when it gets hot.. and I have pushed it. I've even gotten my g1 blazing hot in the past and still no problems... but what I do to keep my vibrant at a cool temp . while im tethering I plug my phone on the charger and I lay it flat down on my window sill.. and crack the window. The cold winter breeze here in the north east does not let it get hot at all! And if u have no insulation in ur house(like me) u prob wont even need to crack the window ...

And in the summer time while I have my a/c on I put it right on top of it.. near the vents and that works perfect ... also another trick is to take ur back cover off .. so it vents out.. hope that works for ya, as it works for me perfectly.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomathplz:
my ice bag trick works real nice being here in texas it doesn't get cold enough to cool the phone i've gotten the temp down as far as 64.6 *f
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagb1967:
Thethering alone ould not make the phone overheat that much. Are you running OC kernel?

I believe this is a Q&A question, it has nothing to do with development
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaesthetic:
116 degrees Centigrade is deadly to the phone, maybe.

116 Fahrenheit? It gets hotter than that in the summer in Tulsa. I've seen my Vibrant hit 135 degrees F while charging and using Mobile AP all at once.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willsnews:
I said HEARD!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jomasecu:
I had my phone charging next to my bed and it accidentally got under my pillow somehow... When I woke up it was almost too hot to touch and read at 65C/150F for a second before I pulled the battery (SetCPU was supposed to downclock and beep at me over 50C, but for whatever reason the temp didn't register until it came out of sleep.) Anyway, the only problem I've noticed since then is that when it was overclocked and playing videos in RockPlayer it would freeze up and need a battery pull. I turned the max speed to 1Ghz (normal clock speed) and haven't had any more problems.

The point is, the OP's temps are no problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuLLeT_PrOOf_wAlleTz:
Tethering does over heat ur phone. And also eats the battery like a monster... best thing to do if ur in a hot state, is take ur back cover off so it could vent more.. the more u use ur phone the more cpu it needs and creates heat like a pc. But we don't have a fan like a desktop or labtop. Try laying flat on a cool surface.. like maybe ur floor.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaykresge:
Just a question for the ROM developers, as I'm more of a hardware than a software guy.

My understanding is that the 8GB ROM of the incredible has 3 partitions; system (hidden from user), user (748MB usable), and phone (6.7GB, USB mountable).

Is it possible, even in theory, to have a ROM that would partition the 748MB + 6.7GB together into one drive that is not USB mountable, and thus, get rid of any issues with apps not using internal storage, or even needed to use apps2SD?

I apologize, haven't seen it asked in this context. If this is a dumb question, flame away, I have a thick skin to go with the dense head :)

Bump
[A7 General] stanglx:
Im curious to see if you guys have any issues without the multi touch. I would love to love this device but I do like to play games once in a blue moon and want to know if this would have an effect.

Also, if you had to do it all over again, would you purchase this device?

Thanks for your feedback
[A7 General] argie:
If by multitouch you mean "pinch and zoom", it doesn't work for me. Otherwise, it's known the A7 doesn't support more than two simultaneous touches.

I haven't decided yet, but right now I'm inclined to return it. Reasons:

Feels heavier in the hand after using it several times.

No USB-to-computer connection... unbelievable...!

In bed, I rest the tablet on my lap/stomach... yet they placed the AC connection at the bottom... another unbelievable decision...!
[A7 General] eskaryo:
I do find mine frustrating to type on due to the lack of multitouch. I'm not the world's fastest typer or anything but many times I touch down for my next keypress before removing my first and that causes a misregistered touches.

Other than that I'm satisfied with the tablet... though I am getting some pretty screwy touch behavior at times. I may follow up with elocity support about that.
[A7 General] stanglx:
This was my fear... Games require multi-touch.. but what many dont realize is so does typing on these things...

I appreciate the feedback... Seems this device is a no go for me... I dont care about more then 2 point touch.. but 1 point doesnt make it for me..

I just cant understand how they can come out with such a promising device and skimp on something would have amounted to an extra $10 per unit... they could have passed that on to the consumer and had a significant amount of units sold... as of right now they are the only Tegra 2/512Meg unit on the market...Really ashame...

On to my research...
[A7 General] greatdragon:
Multi touch

The Hardware for the touch screen is does support "Multi touch" or 1 + 1, pinch/zoom, etc.... inputs that being said it looks like the drivers that Stream are using have such poor support for it that it might as well not be there. they never Stated that it was multi-touch so you cant really hold them to it.

But in theory someone (Maybe on the XDA Forums) with right skills and mad skills at that because it looks like it would need a complete driver rewrite might be able to bring true Multi touch support to the device.

But I am not holding my breath, its a Amazing tabet for what it does, and even better for the price but with everything there is need/room for improvement, if there wasnt there wouldn't be XDA or any other hardware hackers
[A7 General] robbbzilla:
It is unbearable!!

Seriously though the pinch and zoom is cool and I hope it gets supported soon either by XDA or is Elocity is really reading these forums and wants repeat business from the early adopters than I hope they might actually support their own device and add the functionality.

What is a shame that I have seen with other manufacturers is that instead of fixing or updating or improving existing devices they just improve the next model that is released like 3 months after the initial release and expect people to upgrade if they want the problems fixed or leave it to devs. Seems like pretty poor support to me.

Look if you are going to build something and ask people to shell out a good deal of money then you should give the consumer the extra value by extending updates and improvements to the device as they come along. In other words development should continue on the device after it is sold so the existing customer base has a good user experience and then shares that experience with friends. As it is now I would not recommend these tabs to any friends unless I know they are tech savy. If I knew Elocity would back up their products then I would be more vocal about the product to others.

However, the lack of pinch and zoom is a problem and it would be nice to have. However, everything I have tried to do with this tab is does remarkably well. I have enjoyed using for now and hopefully soon there will be work arounds to the problems or limitations of the device but as it is now without any changes it is a very nice device and I like it a lot. For $300 there are not many other devices that come close. The Galaxy tab is nice but at $500 without Honeycomb I will stick with an iPad. For me that is what it comes down to. Cost and choice. If I can get an Aple iPad for $429 with an amazing screen, good processor, tons of cool apps, 4.2 ios then I think it is very hard to compare anything else. Android is cool but it is very much a phone os and it shows. While iPad uses a phone OS but it works very well and it shows the customization apple has done with their devices. I think when 3.0 comes out it is really going to change everything. The peek photos I have seen are simply jawdropping cool. So I did not want to fork out a bunch of cash on something that will be updated with a totally new os soon. The Elocity a7 was a way for me to experience Android without a phone or data plan and I am happy so far with my choice!
[A7 General] hoagm:
The A7 was purchased for my wife. Her use is eBooks, browsing, email, facebook, and some casual gaming. For that use case, the device (after Dexter's Mod) is perfectly fine. The only complaint I have is the fact that the menu buttons aren't backlit (onscreen keys work fine, but it's a workaround, not a fix).

For me, however, I like to tinker with everything (see my sig, running CM7 nightlies on my Droid Incredible) and I would prefer to have a Viewsonic G Tablet. Being that the A7 only cost me $300 and it's not really mine anyhow, I can't complain. Yes, the slew of new devices coming in the very near future will be better. But if you go by that logic there will ALWAYS be something better in the pipeline.

The A7 is a good device at a reasonable price. To make it great would take true multi-touch support and xda developer support for further Android versions (I'm not conviced we'll see much support from eLocity and while Dexter has done a phenomenal job with his mod, he's limited in his capacity to support a device he can't even get his hands on).
[A7 General] dburckh:
The lack of real multitouch does not bother me in the least. I'm using it mostly for surfing. What games require multitouch? Not angry birds ;)

I absolutely love turning the tablet vertically for typing. I can really fly! Way better than my Galaxy S

Anyway, Dexter's mod really makes this thing real.

Only complaint so far is the standby time (32 hours). That may be due to the mod.
[A7 General] I<3Android:
I'm very happy with my device. Aside from the lack of back lit buttons. On a side note the app "button savior" helps alot with the onscreen buttons. Yes i would of liked to have a multi touch experience right out of the box, but the price tag helped me get over that. That being said i would rate my elocity a solid 9.5 out of 10. Im just super excited to see what is to come!!!

And might i add Dexter makes this thing worth wild!! Big props!
[A7 General] rspray:
I'll echo everyone in the button comment. Maybe we can come up with a glow-in-the-dark solution? I'm thinking some relatively invisible (during daytime) material/glue to put small marks near the edge to indicate the middle positions of the buttons. I think I know the order of the buttons by now, so simple dot would be enough. I'll let you know if I think of something.
[A7 General] Canadoc:
Angry birds allows you to zoom in and out to get better view of the targets. So you are not getting best experience without multitouch
[Venue Pro General] enders4you:
Here are some video samples that I did in my back yard for those that want too see some quality of the video camera in both 640 and 720 rez.

It is honestly not that bad. But not that good either. I don't expect N8 quality, but I would consider it to be acceptable. I am just happy that the audio quality doesn't destroy my ears and it isn't unbelievably choppy.
[Adam General] can90:
Hi. I have some questions and I will be very happy if I learn the answers:)

Please help me to find out:)

1. Does Adam support 32GB MicroSDHC card?

2. What is the resolution and fps of video recording of Adam?

3. Can we plug 1TB hard drive to it?

4. Can we disable the ambient light sensor if we want?

5. Sniffer shows 1 USB drive even a USB drive doesn’t plugged. However, we have 2 USB port. What if we plug 2 USB flash drive at a time, will it work? Will Sniffer shows both of them?

6. Can leaves work in the portrait mode?
[Adam General] can90:
Can anybody at least give me an answer for this question:( :

Does Adam support 32GB MicroSDHC card?

I want to buy "Lexar High Speed MicroSDHC 32 GB Class 10" but I'm not sure will it work with Adam or not.

Thanks
[Adam General] Gkar3:
SDHC supports card up to 32 GB ... why Adam shouldn't ? I should reply during February ... because my adam should have arrive.

Don't really have any clear information but in this post on blog Rohan speaks about methode to drain power (Record HD Video and stream it over the Wi-fi networks) For me HD Video means 1080p

Don't really have any clue ... Rohan speaks about access on sniffer with usb pen up to 128 Gb ... But be careful that Android don't seem to have access to NTFS File System, android can access FAT32 File system or Linux Standard FS (Ext 2 to 4).

No news, maybe

I think that you sniffer groups disk by type. Android is an LINUX Distribution.

Then you should have USB 1 / USB 2 / USB 3 (there's 3 ports 2 USB Standard and 1 Mini Usb)

Don't have any clue on it, but if there's no clue it's maybe that leaves only work in Landscape mode as Sense for HTC doesn't work on landscape mode.
[Adam General] lilmikz:
I dont think it supports 1tb external hdd as of yet they said its because android has a limit on its fat 32 size i think its about 120 gig or something. But said in an interview that they were looking to extend this.
[Adam General] can90:
I think I can reply that too:) Also I hope I can reply that before February:) Let's say shipping is 5 days, then we can have it in 20th to 27th of January:)

Anyways, thank you so much Gkar3 and lilmiks.

Gkar3, I didn't see that there is a quote about "HD video", and I'm very happy to learn that,b thanks.

For 1TB hard drive, thats very bad:( I use FAT32 for my macbook, and it is 320GB. I really didn't understand why it doesn't support that, shouldn't be because of FAT32.

Also for microSD, I think you are right Gkar3, I will buy Lexar 32GB now. It would be very ridiculus, if Adam doesn't support 32GB micro SD.
[Adam General] joshua.lyon:
The Mini USB is a HOST port. Meaning that you plug in a standard size USB side of a cable to your computer and the mini side into your Adam... this will allow you to mount the internal storage from your Adam as a R/W drive on your computer. (it essentially makes your Adam's internal memory act like a 'usb thumb drive')
[Adam General] joshua.lyon:
You can run FAT32 on 1TB drives, but I have not heard of an Android limit on FAT32 before. Windows XP does not support formatting of external drives to FAT32 unless they are smaller than 32GB. This is a superficial limit imposed by Microsoft and there are a number of tools that will allow you to format large external drives to FAT32.

Another thing to note is that just because the base Android system did not support NTFS out of the box doesn't mean some of the XDA devs won't be able to able to add NTFS support into a custom kernel. We'll have to wait until some of the XDA devs get their hands on the NotionInk Adam before we can see what features we can add.

Also, FAT32 has a filesize limit of 4GB... so if you are trying to keep some large, HD movies on the external HDD for playback on your Adam you may want to consider another filesystem (other than FAT32).

--edit--

I'll try to plug a large FAT32 drive into my ViewSonic G-Tablet tonight and see how it works. It's running the nVidia Tegra2 chip so it should at least be similar.
[Adam General] tudor83:
i m new as you can see but i m so happy cause i found you
[Adam General] Gkar3:
For me it's Linux Kernel that rules Android then if you use FAT32 then you can create file system from 2 to 8 Tb
[Adam General] can90:
Wow, thanks for the informations. That 4GB limit is the thing that I'm always suffering about.

You are right, we should wait for XDA devs. to get their hands on the Notion Ink Adam. Hope this device will be popular in XDA-devs.

I will hopefully wait for your updates about FAT32 driver.

[Focus Accessories] spanky310:
So I read this thread and thought.... wow this is great! New battery for my Focus for less than $10!

I went on to ebay and found this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&view=all&item=130469767461&tid=508244445003

I bought the battery and it arrived looking "almost" identical to my original battery with the exception of some of the fonts being slightly different which is something I have seen on phone batteries I got from AT&T so I thought everything should be ok.

I went on to use it and it behaved like a new battery would for the first few days and then it started having problem staying charged. I would wake up to a partially discharged battery after having it plugged in the whole night.

It finally died after 10 days. I contacted the seller and he or she claimed that the battery is no longer available and I will get a refund instead of a replacement. According to the item's ebay page the same item was sold to over 100 people.

Guess the deal was too good to be true and I should consider myself lucky that the battery died and not exploded on me.

Just want to share my experience.

Cheers
[Focus Accessories] junkheadalice:
I ordered a pair of non OEM replacement batteries for my Focus to help me through a 2 day bus trip. I know what you mean. The batteries were fully charged but died after about 4 hours without so much as using the phone. I paid $30 for the pair on Amazon.
[Focus Accessories] Luuthian:
Has anyone tried the extended Mugen battery for the Focus?

I'm seriously considering picking something up since no one else seems to be producing extended batteries for the Focus. The $100 price tag is a serious turn off though... I absolutely refuse to buy it unless I can find a solid review on it or something.

Ok so I am new to this but I rooteds my phone yesterday on my mac the first time I got an error and re did it and it worked but now when i try to add different roms in the recovery screen I see every option but nandroid back up how come it is not there? Do I really need it to download roms? If so how do I get the nandroid on there?:confused:
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
the screen you see without nandroid, is it a white or black background?
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
black with blue writing
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
the recovery screen do you think I should just try to re root it again? If so how do i get the first root off
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
if it's rooted there is no need to reroot, sounds like you have cwm recovery, there should be a backup option, you won't find the word "nandroid" but that's what it is, if there is no "backup" on that screen can you please list what options are available?
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
im in clockworkmod recovery v2.6.0.1

and there is an option that says back up and restore which falls under install zip from sdcard
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
you found them, I've been using RA so long I forgot where in clockwork they are
[EVO 4G General] misfit0313:
It seems as if you are seeing the factory recovery. Do you have root? Restart into bootloader, it should say s-off at the top of the screen. If it does, you got root. If it says s-on, no root. If your not rooted run Unrevoked, at the end of the process you should have a proper recovery. If you have root, dl Rom manager from the market and let that app install cw recovery or ra.
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
But it still doesnt say nandroid is that ok?
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
@ mis fit i have the icon for super user and am able to tether so im pretty sure it is rooted but I do not see the nandroid option
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
yes it says s - off i just checked so now once I open a zip file i thought you had to store it in the nandroid file in the sd card but i dont have a nandroid file
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
in clockwork it doesn't say nandroid, that's okay, make the backup and your fine
[EVO 4G General] ddoug215:
ok cool so where do i place the zip file after they are extracted
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
leave it where it puts it, it can only find it there, you can copy it to your computer just in case your sdcard fails
