I think I will wait for the honeycomb! Thanks...

I just started doing research. Don't understand the android market place? I would just search for cracked software to install... am I missing something?

It would be used primary as an ereader, she now has the itouch... but it is a little to small. But it will also be used for movies (on plans), reading PDF's, and all other formats. And I will use it for games...lol.

She has dozens of apps on her itouch... I am sure she will download all kinds of stuff for the android.

advice on android tablet

Hi!

For me,

the best tablets on the market are :

- Viewsonic viewpad gtablet 10.1" (android 2.2, capacitive multitouch, 1GHz CPU,512Mo RAM, USB, 16GB,Camera, G-sensor, supports :wav,wma,mp3...;avi,divx,xvid,wmv,rmvb,mkv,mp2,x264,x263; epub,pdf,...)

At OfficeDepot: $379.99

-Samsung GAlaxy Tab(Android 2.2, capacitive multitouch, 1GHz, 512 RAM, front camera,rear camera,G-Sensor, supports all the formats above).Price varies depending on the Carrier($400 to @560).

But , If you really want a very good tablet you might as well wait 6months to the newer versions with android 3.0 honeycomb(OS specially designed for tablets).

Good luck on your new tablet!

The Notion Ink Adam is another device which I think is extremely good - it uses a Pixel QI screen which makes it especially good as an E-Reader. Also it uses a specialised version of Android which makes Android amazing on it. However it is a bit expensive at $550.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AsapA3:
I have been very happy with my Archos 70. It comes with a nice eReader and with the Google Market installed, I have the Amazon Kindle app. It is a little hard to find right now, $275 is the retail, which is what I waited for and got direct from Amazon. Although my wife picks it up to read and ends up playing Angry Birds...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Asselberghs:
I was under the impression Archos had their own market software and thus it made a bit of problems getting the real Market on it. I don´t own one though so I might be mistaken. As for Adam (Notion Ink´s device) yea theres reviews and such but IIRC Notion Ink has pushed Adam back, the pre-oder people aren´t getting their devices because Notion Ink can´t handle the demand or something it´s pushed back for one reason or another (from androidtablets.net) Android 3.0 aka Honeycomb is Android (re)designed for Tablets. My advice wait for the release of Android 3.0 and the explosion of new devices that are sure to follow in it´s wake. This, my guess is, will bring competition and make for a large selection and maybe price wars which is always good for the end users:)

How come this works:

[seanconnolly@fenrir:~/android-dev/optimus_m]$ adb shell su -c id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)

But this:

[seanconnolly@fenrir:~/android-dev/optimus_m]$ adb shell su -c pm disable com.seven.Z7
Permission denied

Fails?

In the first example superuser prompts for permission and then allows the command, in the second it doesn't prompt and just instantly fails. There are no related saved settings in superuser.

If there isn't a way to fix this, is there another way to execute commands on the phone as root from a script on the host computer?

New update available for my Nordic Combined (B) 2.0.2.A.0.24.

IF YOU'VE UPDATED THE KERNEL WITH MULTITOUCH THEN IT'S A FALSE ALARM!

ALL IT DOES IS TO ROLL BACK TO THE OLD KERNEL AND INSTALL 2.0.2.A.0.24 AGAIN!
[XPERIA X10 General] batman_112:

[XPERIA X10 General] Sir Ice:
False alarm, it's not new update. It's still the old 2.0.2.A.0.24. Quite misleading, considering we are expecting the official update for dual touch.

Probably I lost root, xrecovery, dual touch... but at least I do not have to reinstall all applications and contacts.

Hey guys, this may be a retardedly idiotic question, but can these roms be used with the Mesmerize? It is exactly the same phone (on the outside anyways) but with US Cellular instead. The mesmerize section doesn't have jack... hoping these can work on it. Thanks!
[Fascinate General] obededom:
this will not end well

edit: no, can't interchange the ROM's. Radio issue. delete thread before wrath of many consumes you...you are innocent, but even innocent men die in this creul land of xdaopolis. Run...run like you have never run before...run far...

edit pt2: cruel not creul
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
At the risk of sounding like a noob idiot, I would like to know if this is possible too. Unless the ROM includes an actual radio to flash, why can't it work? Does the RIL have to be customized to the specific baseband code or something? I understand that in general, ROMs never work across different phones due to hardware differences, but this is a somewhat unique came in that the hardware appears to be truly identical, so I can't help but think it might just work, though it may need some slight tweaking for some reason.

If nothing else, since the hardware is, in fact, identical, then I would imagine somebody should be able to take the source code for, for example, Kaoscinate, tweak the code to account for whatever minor differences there are, and release it as a Mesmerized ROM (I would they give credit where credit is due if that happens). If that is, in fact possible, you may be able to find a dev willing to do that much more easily than finding one to do a whole new ROM from scratch.

Is it possible to boot the Android emulator into recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
OK....long story short...finally decided to delve into rooting and custom roms. Flashed CM6 yesterday and everything was going great. Then suddenly yesterday evening as I was swiping between home screens on my device everything froze, and I have been trying to recover ever since.

Anything I flash now just freezes, and i have a touch panel-fail so even when i do get a rom to boot i cant actually get into set it to usb mode or anything.

using bootloader i can not get it to connect using the adb driver so that I can push via adb.

about an hour ago I was successfully able to run the latest RUU and it ran successfully, but device is still way laggy (takes 15 minutes to boot) and no touch screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! don't know where to go from here. From what I have read its not bricked because I can get into Bootloader and Recovery???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lil-dice:
Just a shot in the dark here, but it sounds like since you're stock now it's an actual hardware failure.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
Is there way I can verify that the RUU did indeed flash *EVERYTHING* back to stock?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
It seen like you have a HARDWARE issues, Re-Boot the Stock Rom. Call Sprint and explain what's going on with your phone, please *DO NO'T MENTION YOU ROOTED YOUR PHONE* Tell them you try to wipe your phone and it was really laggy before you wipe, since you gonna Re-Boot the stock rom the phone is going to get UNROOTED, I know this cause I work at Sprint... So good luck...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
I definitely wont rule out hardware issues...this is a refurb device i just swapped my original EVO for on Monday. I guess I just want to rule out any software issues for sure.

You mention that re-booting the stock rom will UNROOT the phone...however I hav no way to currently re-boot the rom??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
Also looks like i can not get into recovery now, when I select the option in the bootloader it just takes me to the screen with a picture of a device and a red triangle
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
Get a Memory Card adapter for PC or use anything that will let you connect your SD card to your computer... As soon as you put the *ORIGINAL STOCK ROM* in your SD card your phone will do everything by itself...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
ok, going to try this now...

I assume I need to load it onto my sd card as the pc36IMG.zip so that i can load it from the bootloader?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bprinehart:
you got it...just put it on the root of sdcard and good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
Yeah... Good luck... Let me know how everything went..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
OK, so I loaded this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=874091 onto my sd card as PC36IMG.zip

It loads the zip then says parsing for about 1 second then just reverts back to the HBOOT option ???

Doesn't ask me if i want to install????
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
I think so, on the bootloader it still shows "S-off" ...doesn't that indicate it is still unlocked?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
OK, so I was able to flash the file in the bootloader. It looks like it won't load past the 'HTC EVO 4g' splash screen.

ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
But the Installation finish without problems ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
yeah, as far as i can tell. It said it completed and gave me the option to press the power button to reboot.

It did finally load up...after about 15 minutes, but touchscreen is still erroring out and not funtional.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
Well that's good and bad... Bad cause your device don't work but GOOD cause we got rid of all the evidence of ROOTING. Now you can go back to Sprint and get a replacement and remember you don't know nothing about rooting or hacking phone hehehe... Nice helping you ! Good luck...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azkevman:
Thanks a ton for your help!

As far as evidence of rooting, the bootloader screen still shoes S-off...will that be a problem?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
You should be fine.

EDIT: And If they say something, just be like " I just got this PHONE from you guys on Monday and is refurbish " that normally help's. But you should be fine.

AT&T tab flashed with roto jme v4.

Voice sevice works great. In the dialer there is a button labeled 'Video Call'.

What is this supposed to do? Lemme guess, video call. How?

It just gives me an error when i try it (to a contact with an iphone4).

I am famillar with some the other video calling apps out there like Tango, Qik and skype. I am just not sure what this button should do?
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
it doesnt do anything. if you were in europe you could video call with that button but since in the US video chat isnt supported through the carrier its just a useless button. would love to find a way to let it launch an app like tango tho.

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] psych0t1c:
Hey!

On my old Samsung WinMob phone there was an option to manage caller ID (suppressing / enabling the display of the own number on the called persons handset).

Here in Android I can only turn it off and on. The Samsung also allowed a third setting for "Display when calling known contacts".

So basically, when I dialed a unknown number it would automatically suppress, when calling a contact from the phonebook it would automatically display.

Anyone know if there is a way of enabling such behavior in Android, maybe trough a 3rd party app?

Switching is kind of tedious and I really liked that feature. I do not know why it is not implemented, should not be too hard. We are talking about european GSM phone here btw.

Any input welcome, thanks.
