wtf, stop spamming old threads
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] crazyforandroid:
If you guys want muittouch (fake gestures) you can use X8 Toolbox (on XDA) to install it. Fake gestures is for user without the cypress chip. X8 toolbox will check so you don't have to worry. If you do have a cypress chip, congrats cause you can get real muittouch!!!! Just install it the same way in x8 toolbox.

Hope this helps! :)

I'm new to XDA! :D

Please click the "thanks" button if i helped!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] chewdaniel:
and u found it fit to bring up a 1-year old thread because...?

i have the cypress and i am willing to test it
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] nilse:
hey IT IS POSSIBLE to have dual touch, but just on cypress chips, like we have it now

the synaptics dual touch is a "fake" dual touch, it takes one touch point and and duplicates it so the second touch is just a copy on the other side of the screen

but still an awesome work from doixanh
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Spevky:
But, it detects the other finger. But it is Clearpad 2000, and Sony cripled it so it only supported 1 touch. If we hardware modidy the clearpad 2000 we maybe can have the real dualtouch on Synapthics.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] velnens123:
Stop trolling in this OLD thread! Mod close this thread! And if people want to discuss about multitouch on synaptics, do it in GENERAL section!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
So I lost my friends wimax.img file (I did backup rsa keys but that's useless) and we flashed his evo back to stock using unrevoked s-on and pc36.img*. Took the phone into sprint and the tech immediately came out and said the mac address is bad and therefor the software has been modded and they couldn't replace the phone except via insurance and deductible. We played dumb of course. Is there a way to change the mac address or should we try a different tech center?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nefariouss:
Do the right thing and pay the deductible. Think someone on here that works for sprint said that if you take it in for repair and its been rejected for warranty claims its noted on your account and will always be that way.

As far as fixing out yourself I have no idea, sorry.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
Pretty sure there is no way to fix the 4g but not sure if the mac address can be corrected. Looks lik we'll end up just doing it through insurance, but not sure if $7 a month plus $100 deductible is really 'the right thing.' I did wonder about phones being tagged once they are denied for repair though.

Hey there!

I've been having difficulty connecting to my 2 wireless routers at home, it was an on and off thing for a while but it has been now a couple of weeks ever since I last was able to connect.

Weird thing is, a friend of mine with the same phone and firmware came over yesterday and connected just fine.

I'm running 2.2

Baseband: i9000XXJPP

Build Number: FROYO.XXJPO

Any ideas?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XmentalX:
Flash to a non GB rom, make the changes, flash back to GB rom, because your changing radio settings they should stick through a flash no problem
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtr145r:
are you using an asop rom?

if not and you are just using a 2.2 sense rom you need to get the 2.1 epst.apk then copy the file into system apps then reinstall it.

all should work after that.

hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiderman3k:
I have to use 2.2. bc the 2.3 I can't pop the epst menu.. ill try the 2.1 epst.apk if that work.. and i omly need this in order to change the MMS server.. everything else work, and when u go from 2.2 to a diff rom or to a 2.3 i understan that u have to do a full swipe.. but im going to try with out the swype see if that work and ill report back

I am trying to install android onto my hd2 from my sd card. But every time i try to boot it up it goes to the black screen with the writing on for about 3 seconds then gets stuck on the boot screen. I have checked my radio version and it is 2.08.50.xx so i do not need to install a new radio version.

Can anybody help me to install android?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] locoelbario:
first time you start it it can take about 30 minutes to start
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] spyderman33:
That doesnt sound like your radio... It sounds like you have a bad ROM on your SD... Re-download the ROM, format the SD card on the computer (not on the phone) to fat32, reload the ROM and try it again...

If it doesnt work... I heard someone formatted the SD card through Windows Mobile and then loaded the ROM and it worked.

Lastly, if all of that doesnt work, then re-flash the WM ROM and the radio then try it again.

Good luck.

[Nook Color General] rog152:
Now with CES behind us but with thoughts of all those new tablets still fresh in our heads, anyone still think a rooted Nookcolor will be able to hold it's own against the tide that's coming.

Anyone with a rooted Nookcolor-will you still buy a tablet this year and if so which one, or will the Nookcolor still do.

I think the price point of the Nookcolor is it's greatest strength now.
[Nook Color General] wendellc:
I agree for $250, the NC can't be beat. Honeycomb on NC:D

I do plan on getting a new tab, maybe one of 10.1" running Honeycomb but don't know which one yet.
[Nook Color General] spikey911:
My opinion is...

The Nook is a book reading device first. Its a make shift tablet second.

It is not really fair to compare it to tablets that are designed to be tablets.

With that said, the newest thing is always around the corner. What is NOT around the corner is the hundreds more dollars for me to spend that these new devices cost as compared to the Nook.

Once the Nook gets a stable and functional Froyo, it will put it a very good advantage for at least the next year with app support.

It will take some time for Tegra2 to build up steam and drop in price. Meanwhile you have all of these older devices/tablets/cellphones still running older systems.

Just because 3.0 is coming up does not mean that all support will stop for the older devices. Developers would be foolish to stop supporting the older builds.

So, the answer for me is YES, the Nook is a great buy at this moment in time.
[Nook Color General] phirephotog:
I have to agree with the price point being the NC's largest draw and strength. For $250 you can't get a better piece of hardware. Once we can get honeycomb (and by we I mean you people smarter than myself) on the NC we'll be flying high.
[Nook Color General] duloz:
From what I have read, which may be BS, honeycomb will require dual processors to function properly, so I doubt nook color can handle it. :(
[Nook Color General] ehrune:
There's always something "better" available "real soon now". I'd have to check, but none of the CES announcements included either a price for the device or a release date. Heck, the Adam took almost a year from CES to release, and even then it had a very limited release and still hasn't shipped. But you can go over to B&N and pick up a NC right now.
[Nook Color General] 911jason:
There is no minimum processor requirement for Honeycomb.

I just picked up a Nook Color for $180 from CL...but even at full price I didn't see anything that blew me away from CES. Sure the newer tablets will have better CPUs etc. but I doubt they will have the Screen quality of the NC at this price-point. For me what sold me on the NC is the ability to Root it, make it a very functional tablet (even if so claim its a book reader first, I think it makes an amazing tablet). I am one of the few that do not need a webcam etc. And let's not forget the amazing Screen quality!
[Nook Color General] IM0001:
CES Shows some really awesome looking devices but the market at the moment is pricing everything retardedly high. For the moment the $250 NC is the best bang for the buck for a simple Tablet. And I do fully expect to see a Honeycomb port in due time. ;)

Untill the market gets saturated with actually good devices around the $300 price point and not the $499 point, (Especially the 3G only devices?! Not everyone wants or needs 3G!).
[Nook Color General] HotShotAzn:
From my viewpoint:

The OS is sometimes the most expensive part of buying a PC/tablet. I would expect with the fact that Android is open, costs for these devices would be driven down significantly. However, the new crop of Android tablets are up there with Win OS tablets (almost), yet don't have a full featured OS.

I agree with spikey911 that this is an ereader first, Android tablet second. To me, having it run android apps is a benefit, not the primary reason I got it.

I would love a dual core or a Tegra 2 tablet. Would I pay more than $300 for one? Absolutely not. By the time that comes down in price, the next crop of the "greatest" comes out.

The only way I would upgrade to different tablet is if/when the Lenovo LePad/U1 comes down in price. Then I could chuck the NC and my Core 2 duo netbook.
[Nook Color General] myv6mustang:
That's the same thing i thought, but then how to you explain the galaxy tab? 600 bucks for what? Where they price gouging? I picked the nook color because the ability to root and the build quality was outstanding. Closest to that of the iPad. With the new crop of devices coming they are not bringing anything new, dual core yay but other than that what else. For those with nooks is 4-500 dollars worth a larger screen? What can you do on those that you cant do on the nook color? Also nook is still on 2.1 so with froyo there should be a slight speed increase.

Dont think anything from CES was mind blowing and would make me considering giving up my nook.
[Nook Color General] IM0001:
Outside of Android, Gigabyte just announced a reasonably nice Win7 Tablet with a N550 (duel core) and even a 320G HD supposidly aimed at the sub $300 market. If so with a reasonable capacitive screen it would be one of the first reasonable Win7 Tablets. For a device that has netbook specs it may be the first to finally get it that they need to be priced reasonable for the reasonable specs. Touchscreen replacement for a keyboard should not cost $200 more.
[Nook Color General] britoso:
I'm still waiting patiently for the NC with 2G/3G... Anyone know when it will be out?
[Nook Color General] DiDGR8:
I think that we are seeing the NC at razor thin markup (almost cost) due to the "razor/razor blades" marketing model that ebooks use. B&N expect to make all their money on book sales, not the hardware. Until we have a Tegra2 KindleIV to compare to, I doubt we'll know for sure:)
[Nook Color General] Homer_S_xda:
I'm not looking for my Nook to replace my laptop. The thing that got me is the performance/price and the big thing: not having a data plan. I don't understand who has the money to buy a $500 device and then pay $25-50/month for 24 months. I can buy a really nice laptop for $1100-1700.

[Nook Color General] bugeyed1:
For me the NC is a tablet first & an ereader second! At least that's the way I use it. IMO it has enough going on hardware wise that the only time that it is an ereader first, is that period of time between opening the box & rooting it! Just because it doesn't have a few hard keys, camera or GPS & USB host doesn't mean it is not a viable tablet. Actually, a rooted NC has more tablet functions than it does ereader functions. I am very happy with the NC without these features, as that kept the price where I could afford it. With it competing in the ereader market, B&N had to price it accordingly. If it had been competing as a tablet, it could have demanded a much higher price. I was not looking for a laptop replacement, just a more portable connected device that doesn't require a data contract.

Cheers,

kev
[Nook Color General] colorado_al:
Best tablet for under $300. Once Froyo is successfully ported and BT able kernel it will be even better. There is no way you will find another 7" tablet with capacitance screen, 1024x600 res, 512MB RAM, 8GB Internal Storage for anywhere near this price. B&N is selling them at a low price to get people to buy their ebooks.

Rooted = WE WIN!

Thanks to XDA!!!
[Nook Color General] duloz:
Glad it was BS. :)
[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
I am not convinced that not having some pretty strong minimum hardware specs is a good thing. Microsoft was pretty smart by setting the bar high on their Win Phone 7 units. I think the Android community would benefit from having some specs that ensure that a tablet or phone will perform fast and smooth. You know that Apple will increase their specs for the next iPad and it will suck if honeycomb runs poorly on previous gen tablets.
[Nook Color General] spikey911:
I can say for sure that stuff runs terribly on my Iphone 3g after upgrading it to the 4.x series, so Apple might boost the hardware, but they always support previous generation for a while for better or worse.

I think support for older generation is the key to success. Most people can't afford to drop top dollar every year for the latest and greatest.
[Nook Color General] hoola20055:
I am in LOVE wit my. NC. I had an archos a70 and an a101. Yes the archos gen8s are great but I am ALL about the screen. The NC screen blows the Gen 8s out the water. I don't need a front camera. The. NC feels extremely better built. IMO. Gen8s multimultimedia is far better but rockplayer is working good enough. Froyo built for the nookcolor will Make it as good or better than any first Gen tab out there. Imo of course.

[Nook Color General] jerrykur:
The 3G is 2 generations back. The 3Gs was the previous generation and most iOS4 stuff runs OK on my 3Gs.

But in the case of android tablets the next OS version will be the first version of Android that Google is saying was designed with tablets in mind. It needs have tablet specific features that show off the tablet environment. And it needs to launch with a bang, not with a chorus of criticisms for being too slow, buggy, etc. Having some strong hardware specs with respect to processor, memory, and graphics would go a long way to help ensure the success of the launch.
[Nook Color General] supersoulfly:
The new Tablets look great. I didn't see anything sized at 7" I found too compelling though. I only recall seeing Honeycomb on 10" tablets like the Xoom and the G-slate. When I see a wifi only, 7" tablet, running Honeycomb, with a Tegra2, and priced under $300, that's the day I will get jealous.

I'm fairly sure the Nookie will keep me satisfied for at least the next year.
[Nook Color General] myv6mustang:
+1 to this why do you need to pay a data plan on something that will probably be at home during your work day and on wifi while you are home.
[Nook Color General] bonzer2u:
My thoughts exactly, get 12 to 18 months outa the NC and see whats available??
[Nook Color General] DatterBoy:
I really would love to have a XOOM, especially if it pans out to be as great as the hardware sounds, but I have to admit, the NC is an awesome tab already. As great as the capability of the XOOM would be, really though, until the software demands that kind of power, there is no need unless you just want to do it faster/smoother and want the big screen. (Cameras and extra hardware notwithstanding).

In reality though, the NC can pretty much do what I like to do on a tab. Not as butter smooth as the high end hardware but once you're in, it's pretty good if not perfect in many cases.

If I get a XOOM, it will be house hardware where the NC becomes mobile hardware when I'm stuck somewhere for a duration and the phone becomes the anytime anywhere hardware.

But as of right now, XOOM may be too much for what I do on a tab. But I still really want one!
[Nook Color General] conan1600:
Amen. I've been thinking just that since the darn things came out. Plus if im on a trip i can tether my phone. Its just another marketing scam to suck every dollar a man makes outta his already deflated wallet. Imho.
[Nook Color General] paleh0rse:
My original intent was to use the NC to play around with android in preperation for a larger tablet in the near future. However, I quickly discovered that the NC does 90% of what I'm trying to do with a tablet, so I may just keep it for an entire year before exploring the more powerful alternatives.

If only this thing had gps, hdmi output, and cameras... if it did, I'd probably wait even longer to upgrade!

Don't get me wrong, though. I will certainly be paying VERY close attention to the Xoom and Adam reviews. Both Eden and Honeycomb look HAWT, as does the pixel qi screen for ereading poolside!

I AM looking to upgrade my iPhone 3GS to a new 4G Android phone soon -- I'm finished with Apple! Right now, the leading contender for that is the new Motorola Atrix (I really like the WebTop concept!)

We shall see. :)

[Nook Color General] xwint3rxmut3x:
I thought the 7inch Dell Streak looked pretty sexy, but i'm not paying $500 for tablet...on or off contract...just me though, i'm sure other people are ok with dropping that kind of cash, i'm going to hang by the 300 range, and for $250 the NC will still be able to hold it's own against those new tablets if for no other reason than it seems the "acceptable" market price for most tablets is going to be around $500
[Nook Color General] psymon101:
Going to chime in on this... I bought a NC and was fully satisfied, yet with all the stuff the Galaxy Tab had, I took it back for one... Nothing but problems.. after going through two GT`s I got my NC back..

Lessons learned, Samsung dont update jack, no real ROMS for it (Yes I know NC doesnt but I would expect the GT to, alot of other minor things to which bugged me, no pptp support in the kernel!)

Anyway, in my experience, I am staying the heck away from Samsung products and will wait till the Motorola Xoom releases... Only now I realise how good the NC is for the money, B&N have done a wonderful job.
[Nook Color General] gadgetrants:
Definitely feeling the Nook love in this thread, and I agree with all the enthusiasm and support our baby is getting.

But a reminder...last time I checked, it was G BEFORE H. Not Honeycomb people. Gingerbread. First Gingerbread, and then Honeycomb later. ;)

And please, I'll lose my marbles if one more person repeats the "minimum hardware requirement" rumor. :confused: Please read the news before making up your own facts.

[Nook Color General] painter_:
I would not of bought a tablet if the price was over $300. For $250 the Nook is near perfect. Bluetooth is the only thing missing. Bluetooth would be for tethering and music. The 7" screen is the perfect compromise between usability and portability. I have a phone with a camera and netbook for heavier computing tasks while on the go. Once a ROM with overclock and pptp is made this ereader / tablet ill be perfect. I watched 2 movies on it on my flight today and read several newspapers. Very convenient, bravo Barns & Nobile.
[Nook Color General] GarJones27:
After reading a lot of these posts I definitely agree with many. AS FOR CES, I looked at Engadgets breakdown of all the tablets and nothing really stood out mostly because for me I like the 7" form factor. 10" is just too big for me; I would just rather use my laptop. Also I wouldn't buy one of the many new tablets because the price point and the fact that buying it unsubsidized is even more. I hate the fact that cellulalr companies are selling all these tablets/manufacturers are making them with 3g/4g radios and selling them through cell companies. If I ever need a data connection for my NC I just whip out my Nexus One and tether away. I wish more of these tablets were Wifi only because they would definitely drop in price.

I definitely see myself keeping the NC for at least a year if not longer. Hopefully we can get a fully functioning Froyo build with a working Nook app (I miss those page turning animations).

Plus I love having an "exclusive" piece of hardware that "Wow's" people due to the wonderful hacking community here at XDA.

The NC was always goin to be worth something more,even to Barnes and noble.I love my NC,I have hacked it to no end,and for being designed for a ereader, it has gone far beyond expectations. and withthe surprisingly wide base of NC users, I'm sure a fully useable android tablet wit honeycomb, Bluetooth,FM radio, ad lots of other fully featured androidvyhibgs available in the NC.ether early the nook color it the MOST valuable tablet that could go head to head wth a galaxy tab any day

[Nook Color General] markcat:
Painter,

I heard that the NC does indeed have bluetooth, however at this point it is kind of hidden from the general public. Sounds like B&N has plans to access the bluetooth hardware in the future and other threads on XDA have already discussed getting bluetooth via rooting.
[Nook Color General] techboydino:
I agree that nothing touches the Nook for the pricepoint. I love mine and will use it as long as developers continue to write great for it. If you want mind blowing check out the Xoom. I was at CES (as press) and had a hands on interview with a marketing manager for the Xoom tablet and Atrix. Both blew my mind. Nvidia Tegra 2 stole the show.

Here is one of our initial Moto postings with video. (Atrix is part one, Xoom video is coming soon.)
[Nook Color General] fwdixon:
Until someone comes up with system like the Atrix that will dock into a 7" tablet or 10" slider, I think the NC will stick around. If I've gotta pay 200 bucks for my phone, I ain't paying more than $300 for a tab. If I can get an all-in-one device, then I'll consider dropping more.
