I got mine from Phones 4 U here in the Uk, I'm sure mine came with this sticker as well. If I remember the actual box was secured with a plain white sticker - and the inner box was a right pain to get out.

I assumed that the sticker came in the box so that a retailer could charge the handset or check the contents and then reseal the box.

I bought a handset a while back from Vodafone and it came with a sticker saying something like "walk out talking" because they'd charged the handset before selling it?

I could be wrong though.

You are correct. Mine was the same way. Since the DHD is sold unlocked/unbranded there is no need for the seller to open it, so we get that sticker.
[Desire HD Accessories] DN41:
mine is tmobile branded and didnt include such sticker.

so your theory seems to be right :P

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosaigon:
Hi everybody, recently i have had a big problem with my Galaxy S Gt-I9000: My phone worked perfectly, it has FROYO 2.2.1 Band base: XXJPY updated as XEU via Kies with the registry patcher. But suddenly, one night, when I turned it on, it got stuck in the "Galaxy S" logo. After that it couldn't react. It just did strange vibrations. I had to perform a hard reset. I had to configure everything from the beginning.

A few days later, I installed an app called "startup auditor" that allowed me to erase startup programs. When I rebooted it got stuck again. Once again I had to hard-reset. Today, I inserted a new SIM card, when I turned on the phone, it got stuck again. Even if I try to remove the battery, it doesn't seem to have any effect.

What do you think it can be? Is it a software or hardware issue?

My installled apps are:

-AVG Antivirus

-Brightness Level by Curvefish

-Angry Birds and Angry Birds seasons.

from Gameloft:

-Asphalt 5 HD

-Brothers in Arms 2 HD

-NOVA HD

-Gangstar West Coast

-Assasins Creed

-HAWX

-Krazy Kart Racing from samsung apps

-Opera mini

-Ebuddy messenger

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N-Forced:
Hey guys i've ran into a problem that maybe one of you experienced themers can help with. I am running Lou's Redemptive rEVOlutionn rom and decided the status bar and icons were too stock looking so I decided to replace them with another one. Well I went into framework-res and com.htc.resources and replaced everything I wanted to change then rebooted, after rebooting my phone everything was what I wanted it to be but when I plugged my phone back into my computer and the usb icon came up it was the same icon as before. I went back into framework-res and double checked to make sure I replaced the usb icon and yet assured I did. So I am at a loss here, i've been searching for other places where the icon would be and haven't found it anywhere besides the framework-res apk. Can anyone help me out?

[Wildfire General] aspudgun:
Had my wildfire for a few months now, finally decided to root and flash a ROM after my service provider failed to roll out froyo. It's all been pretty simple and I've had no real difficulties, but my battery is now draining at a stupid rate.

I mean, with all the typical battery draining applications/services off it is still draining faster than pre-flash with all of them on. Literally like 1% a minute while hardly doing anything.

I've not bothered to overclock, even went so far as to underclock processor, still to no avail.

I've tried a few ROMs now and they're all the same, currently running 6.1.0 wildpuzzle. It doesn't help that I have a slow charger (original broke), this normally would do a full charge in around 10 hours so I'd leave it overnight. But now the battery drains nearly as quick as it can charge.... I've not even had it at 100% power since upgrading to Froyo.

Any ideas how to fix this? Obvious suggestions will be to try a fast charger (will do tomorrow round a friends) but I cant see this making a difference other than making it possible to fully charge and waste again in an hour after unplugging.

Battery life was typically 8-48 hours previously. :eek::mad:
[Wildfire General] aspudgun:
Ok, so I've finally got the battery to charger to full. However, the voltage reading is given as 4V, whereas is was previously around 4.2. Battery isn't fully charged. WAT DO? :\

My market always says starting download, But never actually starts. It HAS worked, and my connection is fine, but its really finicky.

Anyone else experiencing this?

//from the nook
[Nook Color General] zdrifter:
Think lots of people see this behavior ... and actually it seems that while it looks like it's not DLing, it actually is ... try this ... click on an app you want ... the market will ask if you want to install, after you say OK it goes back to the market .. click again on the app you are DLing and watch for a minute .. it'll probably display that it is now DLing and it seems it really was all along. Also this is not 'repeatable' .. sometimes it behaves this way, other times it goes straight to DLing ... have this same behavior on my Froyo phone and a small android tablet.
[Nook Color General] Alisneaky:
I used to have this issue and HTC had no idea about it. Realised that if you have the low disk space icon showing in your notification bar, market will not download or update any applications until the issue of space is sorted.

Hope it helpa
[Nook Color General] jewnersey:
Thanks for replying.

Nothing seems to be working. Pandora and jorte Have been starting to download for over 12 hours. My disk space is fine so that can't be the issue. I feel like its connection based in some way, but I have no evidence of that.

[Nook Color General] jewnersey:
So I jumped on market help just now and this is a very common issue. The fix is just signing or resigning into to gTalk. Weird but it worked immediately after I defrosted and reboot.

[Nook Color General] succulent:
Start downloading in the market only hang on my NC when there's a low on disk space notification even though there's 100MB left. When I clear some addition space, the downloading resume.
[Nook Color General] TCStehle:
My NC was acting the same way last night. Marketplace downloads took forever and many times it would say "download paused". Dolphin HD and default browser were both super slow loading pages if they loaded them at all. I checked the Wireless and it seemed to be "cycling" between "Connected to the Internet" and "Connected, testing...." every 5 to 10 seconds. I managed to load Speedtest and my download rate was 50 Kbps or less. My Samsung Fascinate sitting right beside the NC was hitting close to 1Mbps on Speedtest over WiFi.

So I started backing out the apps I've installed, no change. Frustrated, I end up doing a hard reset to reload the system partition and deregister to clear everything else. So now I'm back to bone stock and it's 1:00 am, still NO CHANGE!! WiFi is still super slow to non-existent

Needless to say at this point I'm a tad irritated with the NC. I box NC up thinking it must have some type of wireless defect and plan on taking it back to Best Buy since I just bought it 3 days ago.

For some reason I decide to check out the Barnes and Noble website thinking it's a long shot they'd have any answers but what the heck. In the Support forum for the NC I found a thread talking about the NC having issues with WiFi when using WEP security. Not 100% of the time but sometimes. Oh my, I'm using WEP security on a DLink router!! (I know, not the best decision I've every made but certainly not the worst, the ex-wife holds that honor!!)

So I unbox and power up the NC, "Forget" the current wireless connection, turned off the wireless all together and power off the NC. I log into the router and change over to use WPA-PSK security. Power up the NC and turn the wireless back on. It finds the network and shows WPA-PSK security in use. I enter the key and it connects immediately. I open the default browser and poof the Barnes and Noble page loads quick!!!

It's now 2:00am and I'm re-rooting the NC and reinstalling apps. The Market Place and Dolphin HD are now responding like they should. The constant "cycling" between "Connected to the Internet" and "Connected, testing..." has stopped. The NC still cycles between the two but it's not nearly as often.

So I've learned: Don't work on the NC at 1:00am. You'll make rash decisions which will cost you a lot of unnecessary work later on. And, if you're having WiFi issues and using WEP try WPA-PSK instead.

Sorry for the long winded ramble, lack of sleep I guess.

Or just Mac address filter :P I have no password on my router but if the devices Mac address isn't on the list they can't even connect to the 192.168.2.1/192.168.1.1 router login stuff.

Not recommended unless you like setting stuff up because anything you plan to use have to be added to the list.

Off topic but it's really easy to spoof a mac address. Still use WPA if you care about security. I personally don't.

[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
They can determine valid MACs for your network by simply monitoring the traffic and clone one that you've white-listed.

That's like locking your car door and leaving the windows rolled down.

It's still better than WEP, though.
[Nook Color General] camwinnn:
Thats with anything tho, if a supa n3rd wants to come sniffer/brute force for hours for wifi they will get it.

But, Especially, since it was about the NOOK not liking WEP/WPA2 Mac address filtering is another option with which ive had no problems plus the no password hassle while still enjoying some security.

Crappy belkin routers never have problems with the NC tho WEP/WPA2 or not.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Sure, but it's a matter of the effort/reward ratio. MAC-cloning and WEP-cracking is trivial. It can be done in 1 minute. That requires no meaningful effort. Brute forcing for hours obviously requires a considerably greater effort and time expended.

You can see the difference, right?

They're going to go after the low-hanging fruit and then move on to more easy-pickings, not waste time hammering away at WPA2 for hours and hours.
[Nook Color General] camwinnn:
I guess its all your set up, either its was the PSP or DS but I play soulsilver via wifi an one couldn't manage wpa2 and since wep is bad I'd rather not bother with a password.

Plus if my connection lags a second I look up the dhcp list :P hourly almost if torrent uploads fall below 250k. It still may be easy access but it would be a pain to get my "fruit" :P

Well, the rom is not so different from the stock one, the main difference is launcher pro (and the custom battery icons are from circle.glx.nl, i couldn't include them in the build because it gave me a infinit boot loop, but if you like them, just go to the site, select "SCB with %, Version [A-M]", then the D version, then just next, next, next, and upload the framework-res.apk found in the rom's zip /system/framework/framework-res.apk, the site will give you a zip that you can flash trough the custom recovery "flash zip from sdcard"). Anyway, there you go, launcherpro, some widgets and the default wallpaper:

[Epic 4G Accessories] watermoore:
The guy selling these batteries messed up my order. He is working quickly to make it right. I just wanted to share what was going on with everyone.

His sales name on E-bay is "Moretalktime". He has all positive reviews but when I went to order I noticed he had identical ad postings for a long life battery (Yoobao) but with different prices. I checked both meticulously and even had a family member double check. They both were claiming to be YooBao 2800 Mah. So naturally I ordered the cheaper one. Once I got the battery I knew right away that it wasn't YooBao. It was black, had a generic label on it, and rated at 3000 Mah. I even double checked the ad on e-bay and I wasn't crazy. It read, This YooBao Battery..... and in the middle of the text claimed the rating to be 2800 Mah battery life.

I shot Kevin an email and he was really quick in responding to my issue. He said he would pay return shipping and swap it out for the Yoobao once he got the generic returned. Apparently the ads got mixed up or something. He gave me the option to condition the battery, try it out and see what I thought; if I didn't like it I could swap it out and return it for the Yoobao.

I figured I would try it since I already had this battery in-hand. I quickly ran into an issue. While draining the charge that the generic battery came with, I noticed the screen kept flickering Rainbow-like horizontal banding. It only would occur when I had the screen brightness up from 80% - 100% and when a large majority of the screen was pure white. like the market loading screen or the facebook app, even dolphin HD in Full screen mode on a website like Google. It freaked me out because I didn't want anything to happen to my device. I tried with the OEM battery and couldn't replicate the issue. I also figured out it only occurs when the screen brightness is up past 80% and gets really bad when maxed out at 100%

Does this phenomenon occur with the YooBao's too? If so I doubt its an issue that will effect the device, but either way I would rather take my chances with a battery that has a reputation versus a generic no name so I sent it back to the guy for the YooBao.
[Epic 4G Accessories] muyoso:
Sounds like a defective battery. I dont have the Yoobao but I can assure you that it doesn't cause screen flicker. I have the 3500mah generic battery, which probably is the exact same battery you got, and I do not have this issue. These generic batteries of the "extended" variety are pretty much all the same, just with a different wrapper on them with different mah ratings. Its just a theory of mine since I only have the 3500mah one, but since they are all the same size its pretty well founded. The generic 3500mah or 3000mah are probably both truly 2800mah.
[Epic 4G Accessories] watermoore:
Thanks for replying. Yeah I figured it was the same. Its already back in texas waiting to be swapped for a YooBao so all is well.
[Epic 4G Accessories] hydrogenwv:
My screen did that exact same thing with the stock battery. It happened when the phone was charging and I had a lot of apps running.
[Epic 4G Accessories] austin420:
my screen does that with the stock battery too. i only get the rainbowie flickering when im 100 percent bright(all the time) and under 20 percent battery. i acually see this almost every day.
[Epic 4G Accessories] watermoore:
Well I got my Yoobao on Monday. I just finished draining it from 100% so day one of the conditioning is over. Its was a champ all day. Brightness set up to 100% from 5am. I made it to 7pm with heavy usage. lots of internet browsing, videos and gaming. All I want is to be able to reliably get through an entire day without having to consider putting my phone in airplane mode in low signal areas, turn down screen brightness and account sync times, etc.....

Yoobao = no problems with rainbow phenomena
[Epic 4G Accessories] watermoore:
I didn't pay attention to the percentage. It may have been under 20 percent. It also would have explained why I couldn't replicate the issue on my OEM battery. However I finished "day-one" of my conditioning for my Yoobao battery and even the back ten percent didn't have the rainbow issue.

In regards to having a lot of apps running to replicate the problem. I rebooted my phone just to see if it was a software issue or maybe even some background processes causing the problem. With the generic 3500Mah I had reliable rainbowing issue between 80-100% screen brightness without any apps running in the background. So long as the app background on screen was nearly pure white, I had rainbowing. On my OEM I couldn't replicate it, but it was fully charged. I will, however, try to manifest the problem when I get the OEM battery below 20% and then report back.
