I understood how much better and polished Android was seconds after starting a build on my Diamond. And I am talking about quite buggy build. Flashing NAND Android to my HD2 was the first thing to do in the morning after it was released...

I'd rather pay NOT to have WM on my phone, so I dont understand the will to use it at all :)

Ok so I've been using ADWLaunchEX and to use Kies i need to use touchwiz. So I changed Touchwiz back to the default launcher and rebooted and hooked up USB. Well the USB connection prompt isn't coming up like it should. Touchwiz has this stupid "What would like to do?" prompt and it's not the one thats appearing. The normal usb android mount interface is coming up. Yes The Samsung launcher is running but the usb insert prompt isn't the right one. Anyone ran into this before? Kinda making me sad since they have a new version out and they actually let you download it from the united states now.
[Galaxy Tab General] gobslotch:

Just saw this on Gizmodo, it's called Profile Valet. Basically you can set up your system to change based on location or time. Need your ringer off at work, set the time for vibrate only. Want your wifi to come on automatically when you get home, set it for that location. It does more (Dispaly, Sound, Wifi, and Bluetooth. Location, Time or manual. Check it out here...http://gizmodo.com/5728106/app-of-the-day-profile-valet-for-android . I just installed it and will report back. Oh and it's free.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] rsfaze:
this was one of the main features on the g1, now having a mental block on the name of the app way back then.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jersey_609:
It was locale it use to be free also but now they charge 9.99
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jdanisevich:
Doesn't Tasker do the same thing only better? It's a little more complex, but once you figure it out it can do some crazy stuff. I personally don't use any of those features much anymore. Never really seemed to help me 100% of the time. I do miss the old G1 free Android Market launch titles. It was so fun to watch the platform grow.:p
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] explodingboy70:
I haven't used any other app like this nor do I really have a need but I have seen some on here asking for something like this. I tried it out and the UI is real simple and straightforward, couple of clicks and you have different profiles set up and hey it's free which is always good. Strike that! Almost always good.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jersey_609:
Yeah tasker does the same there's even a tread on here to share your tasker set up but thats a paid app also . I miss my g1 also got it when it first launched my things change
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eion:
the interval on the gps check for location profiles seems to be very long. i left a given location to have my wifi on and it stayed on about a hour and a half after i left that place. maybe i have to set something up to turn off wifi once i leave the place?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zori:
By this I don't mean the batch process, that I know. But once you batch, you have to click install and done one by one until all the apps are installed. I jump roms a lot and am wondering if there's anyway to do this all at once without having to click individually?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kschang:
One of those "restore all apps" batch functions doesn't work for you?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xpeppyx:
Go pro. Or you cannot use root explorer and Giro were your apparently are installed on your phone copy them and the using your PC put the in the same folder in the rom and then flash. Now they are installed just use titanium to restore the apps data.

so if i buy the pro vesion will that let me select/multi-install without accepting the app "install" and "done" every time?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] WiredPirate:
Hit menu>batch and you can restore all.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] YoungSinema:
Yes, you must go pro. I didn't buy the pro version myself, but I've heard from many others that that is the only way to do them all at once without confirming each app.

TiBU has a feature to create a flashable .zip file for installing the applications. I have yet to try this, but it seems pretty cool.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] powerpenguin:
AFAIK this only refers to a flashable zip of TiB itself (I thought otherwise before, but I tried it)

Still handy to use for restore if your new rom doesn't include TiB and you had to wipe your data and want to restore your g-account etc. first.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gazzacbr:
ok, thanks guys. the paid version does indeed just install without intervention.

this app is great. well worth the few $ for paid. had the license file in less than 15mins from paying.

good to see that the free version is still available anyway.

the installable zip file would be a great addition.

I have got a tablet that has TELECHIP8902 with ARM1176 using android 2.1

I don't seem to view flash sites. I tried downloading floash player for 2.1 and flash lite but neither worked on the tablet!

Any idea if this processor supports flash and if yes (I'm hoping it does) anyone can point me to the right direction of getting it to work.

Much appreciated!!

That is the message I get when I try to mount an SD card in my Gtab. When I power up, I get about a half dozen force closes, including Clockwork and Titanium. It lets me unmount the card, but when I try to mount it it sticks on the "unmount in progress. None of the apps that I installed or that came w/ the rom show up when I look at the SD card on my pc or at the internal one through a file manager. Almost everything FCs or crashes. Someone please help !!!

this all started on how can i test my NFC (in the UK) that its not a defect unit.

although at the moment, the Nexus S is only able to read NFC tags, but in future, when its enabled to be able to write as well, we will be able to ditch our oyster card and use our phone.

[Nexus S General] booyakasha:
NFC is going to take over the world, hopefully the next iPhone implements it as well. Imagine checking in to flights with your phone, movie tickets, payments, the possibilities are endless :cool:
[Nexus S General] qwerp_:
yes, we all know that. but some others are like totally new implementation of NFC which will take some time before happens.

the example i given is already running on NFC. we just need to be able to read and store the NFC info from the oyster card to be transmitted over to the checkout at stations.

not sure how this is going to happen.

imagine, you can just hover over your friends wallet and pickup all the tags. oyster card, credit card and etc etc, and be able to like read and store to be transmitted again.

some sort of security is needed, hence i believe that is why google did not enable it (to be able to write) in the first place untill they come out with a secure way that you can do it.

Only the Library card was a surprise as I hadn't thought of it and was in my 10yo's wallet.

So far I only know that Paypal and Sony have developed useful apps for this tech but with some luck the IPhone 5 will have it and that will boot the development.

I am really hoping that T mobile and Visa will pull there fingers out and get Visa Mobile sorted.

Ps Looked into the Barclaycard pay tag thing that has been advertised and it is a sticker with a passive NFC chip or should i say contactless cc chip.
[EVO 4G General] nyczwillz:
I've rooted my Evo with unrevoked and just kept the stock rom. However, my data services are not working properly and only works every now and then. 3G or 4G. I will get the 4G/3G logo on the top but eventually both goes away and I am unable to access any data. I am not sure if this was happening before or after the root as I never really used it stock.

I've also tried updating profile and prl.

[G Tablet General] vsc:
I just spent the past two days at CES and in fact spent time in the Viewsonic booth.

There are so many tablets on display that one person in my party suggested that if you threw a Coke can 100 feet in any direction you would hit a tablet...

Overall in my opinion on a relative scale the Viewsonic G-tablet is not that bad given everything I have played with. Some other tablets might be a little leaner, maybe a little tighter build quality, but the main difference I see is the display in the Viewsonic.

And yes I did play with the Motorola tablet. While it is leaner and a better built I was shocked on how hot the tablet was when the Motorola person handed it over for me to play with. The G-tablet no matter what I have asked it to do, never gets "hot".

With respect to the Viewsonic tablets introduced at CES, their smaller tablet seems cheep in its constructions. Perhaps that is due to the use of silver colored plastic. And their dual-boot tablet... It was shown running Android 1.6. We asked Viewsonic and were told reboot it to get into Windows. After a power off and power on, I was presented with a boot manager window with Android and Windows as options. But it appeared to be looking for an arrow key press to move the selection bar. Basically I don't think Windows really is useful on the tablet without a keyboard. Perhaps this is why they were showing the tablet with Android. Thus I was never able to get into Windows and try that out.

The RIM tablet is very well built but running QNX. QNX is a realtime operating system and they were in the booth with RIM. QNT is something that is embedded in a product and normally never sees the light of day with respect to the end user. To be honest I worry about the ultimate availability of applications as QNX has nothing to do with Linux, Android, Windows anything, etc. Basically RIM is starting out from scratch. Their user interface is different. Not bad, just different. My opinion, shared with others that I talked with, is that this tablet will appeal to corporations who already have a RIM infrastructure in place and have users complaining they need a tablet. Note that the device on display was WiFi only, where RIM claimed that a unnamed carrier 4G device is near release.
[G Tablet General] cadillax02:
Did you by chance check out the Notion Ink Adam tablet?
[G Tablet General] BigJohn89:
That would probably be Sprint, who is already advertising the Playbook's imminent release...
[G Tablet General] cutterjohn:
Wow! You found better build quality that the gTab? Even my Nook Color seems to have poorer QA as far as actual build goes, and I TRULU expected MUCH better of B&N... defective USB port on my first one OOB, and the casing feels "loose" on returned & exchanged units... however both are better than the Pandigital Novel(white v1) or Augen Gentouch78... although neither of these had defective ports, etc. OOB...

VPAD 10(dual boot one, I presume): Only runs Android 1.6 as it's the latest version that "officially"(?) supports Android for the x86 arch...
[G Tablet General] vsc:
To be honest I could find a booth for them and they clearly are not in the show directory. The bloggers are finding them but they have armies of people all over the show floor.
[G Tablet General] vsc:
Overall there is a lot of junk Android tablets at the show.

It is notable that when the basic software is the same you have two ways to differentiate product. Industrial design, build quality, etc or a software framework such as TnT. Many products simply do neither.

Another notable fact is most tablets are running v2.2 of Android, even when their writeups for their product cite Android 3.0. I was put off by this.

I returned a NookColor because it developed 16+ hot pixels in the middle of the display. At night on a plane ride they just lit up to the point I decided this is too much it goes back. B&N gave me a lot of trouble returning the device, but after three hours of standing my ground they accepted the return. I decided to take a pass on the NookColor for now. And I agree the USB connector choice could have been much better. Also why go with a unique connector in the first place?

I want to say the coolest phone at the show is the LG Optimus 2X. I want one. NOW. We couldn't get it to lag, even when doing our best to crush it. The display quality is also very good. LG won a best of show award for a display and I think it is the same one used in the 2X.

One of my co-workers bought back some info after the CES about the MOTO XOOM, he said that the software was very unstable and lot of FCs. He said that most hardware were ready and just google holding them up..

VSC: did you get your hands on the XOOM, was it unstable? We may need to wait for a few more months then... :(
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
I may be mis-reading this article:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/09/motorola-xoom-pretend-ui-hands-on-walkthrough-video/

but it sounds like they (MOTO) were showing a "fake" Honeycomb UI on the Xoom? Maybe that's why it was "unstable" :)??

Jim
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
That article was kind of confusing.. Said they were running a fake UI on top of the REAL Honeycomb? How is that any different from running say, Launcherpro on top of Froyo? So we aren't running Froyo if we use a different launcher? Maybe they mean the Motorola specific launcher is unstable, I don't know..

At least they haven't put it up for sale as a totally unstable device like Viewsonic did, yet...

I imagine that by the time people can buy one of those surely overpriced, probably locked down tablets they will have all the kinks worked out. Just seeing the Verizon name makes me not want one.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
So would you say the viewing angles of all these new tablets are light years ahead of the Viewsonic, tad better or the same?

Reason why I am asking... Should I wait or not on a G-Tablet with the expectation of upgrading in about 9 - 12 months.
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
I was a little confused by the article too, which is what I started with "I may be mis-reading...".

Jim
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
I saw that:) Just a general observation... Guess if it doesn't make sense it must be right! Right?
[G Tablet General] JoeMofknDot:
Well I was at CES also and the only thing I saw for Viewsonic was a little office and I was everywhere. Do you remember where they were? I played with the rim playbook for a bit the interface was nice then I watched for 20 minutes and I didn't see a single crash but I like that when you open different tabs in browser or media you could see all the pages that are open in small windows similar to when you have multiple pages open in Firefox on windows 7 rim playbook is a small platform.
[G Tablet General] Prof-KOS:
It was basically a demo video of Honeycomb playing in the Android video player in Honeycomb. The actual 3.0 on the Xoom was pretty much unpopulated. Empty screens and almost no apps. The only way to experience it was through the video.
[G Tablet General] vsc:
All is very strong. Most of the tablets at the show have a similar display and are no better with respect to the viewing angles.

After talking to the display suppliers it would appear that in general the 10" displays have limited viewing angles (e.g. 90/50 degrees). Smaller panels (e.g. 5" and 7") have much better viewing angles (e.g. 160/140 degrees).

[Focus General] xThe Enforcer:
Don't know anyone who owns one and a replacement is already on the way. Thanks though.
[Focus General] dead_on_the_floor:
nvm !
[Focus General] GrayWolf:
Meh

So it turns out that my Tilt-reformatted card must've been a fluke due to the fact that my 32GB Class 4 Kingston card flaked out on me. While I was able to successfully reformat that card (which worked for a day or two before causing the phone to become unstable), I was not able to do so for a Sandisk 8GB Class 4 card that works perfectly in my colleague's Focus.

As such, I officially retract my previous belief that the Tilt is a viable platform for reformatting microSDHC cards since it clearly isn't capable of formatting "locked" cards. :(

i got into Android system recovery (2e)

then i choose apply sdcard:update.zip

then it forward me to ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5..

then i choose apply sdcard:update.zip again..

then it rebooted and back to system recovery (2e) again

what should i do to fix this ? i want to update my ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android.francis:
If your custom ROM can be flashed via cwm, go save it in your internal sd then use the install zip in sd card option in cwm.

I suggest you do a full nandroid back-up first just to be on the safe side...

thanks for reply..

i think i can't use cwm anymore to flash.. since it keeps looping between this two recovery mode.. i just flash it using odin, now i'm runnning original firmware 2.1

but i still see those two recovery mode.. how to remove one of them ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Wesku:
When you get into Clockwork, don't press the "apply update.zip".

Select "install zip from sdcard" and locate your roms .zip and install it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] snapper.fishes:
Read the instructions again and again until you understand it. It's obvious that you have no idea what you are doing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] w98seeng:
If I understand your post correctly, you are having trouble getting into CWM after installing it. I had the same thing on my phone.

When going into recovery, you hold down the power button, the home button and the volume up button and release the home button when the Samsung screen appears. I tried releasing the power button when the Samsung screen appears and it goes into CWM recovery.
