[Gen8 General] vja4Him:
I too had the same concern, regarding carrying around a moving hard drive. I got my iBook G4 in June of 2004, and carried it around with me almost everyday, and usually the iBook was running while I carried it in my backpack, the van, or on my bicycle, walking around ....

Didn't start to have any problems with the hard drive until around 2008. I just got a new hard drive last year, as I was using an external HD when the internal HD started crashing. Was still able to get all the data from the HD backed up.

So far, haven't had any problems carrying my Archos 70 around. Haven't had it very long yet, but I've carried it around walking a lot, on the city bus, my bicycle riding around town, and on the church bus which drives over some very rough and bumpy roads! I was impressed yesterday when riding the church bus, and we hit some really rough speed bumps! I though for certain the HD would skip. Didn't have any issues.

I got the three-year extended warranty from J&R, only $49, which was less than other places. So, I figure if anything will go wrong, hopefully it will happen before three years.

Regarding the 7-inch screen, it is slightly smaller than I would like, but still much better than a 3-inch or 4-inch screen. The Archos 70 is still large enough that reading articles or books is no problem. Especially, since I'm holding it close to my eyes. The screen brightness can be adjusted as needed. When I'm at home, I have the screen brightness turned down all the way, and I can still read anything very easily!

I have a small shoulder bag/pouch, which just happens to have a pocket that fits the Archos 70 perfectly. I still need to get a screen protector and case though. If I carried around a 10-inch tablet, wouldn't be quite as convenient.

I'm really enjoying this Archos beauty! Might even consider getting the Archos 43, or some other smaller Internet tablet someday .....

I don't think there are many e-book readers that will do as much as the Archos 70 Internet Tablet 250GB will ....

Archos

Hey first post on here. Been reading for a while. I bought every single cheap android tablet i could find locally to tide me over while trying to get my archos 101. i got an email from newegg that they had them in stock. went there and were already out! later that night i got another email they were back in stock, so I ordered 2! So I left one in the box and been playing with the other one. I'd really like to trade the 101 (8gb) for a 70 because I'd like to try the smaller size, but I'm too concerned with getting screwed to actually do it. It'd be nice to find someone local!

This solved my unregistered device problem.

It didn't fixed my borked IMEI but it did allow me to update via Kies again. Everything on my phone works, save for Market which always breaks on a stock AT&T rom within a day. Every other ROM it works on. After flashing a few I9000 ROMs and a couple Rogers, I had the issue.

Flashing back to stock didn't fix it. Methinks we need to get some ROM cookers to fix that one up...

Dear Experts,

I had bought Galaxy Note recently in India GT-N7000, after turning on the device it found OTA and I updated the same now the Version is BB Version DDLA2 and Kernel Version DDLA5.

Current Connection Mode not supported my Kies" Following where the troubleshooting I had already did. Only one this which I observe new is previously when I use to connect my phone my phone use to notify MTP Connection at the top of the screen but now it says USB Connected Select Files to/from your computer

1. Uninstalled and re installed Kies

2. Clear Phone Cache through Recovery Mode

3. Tried the "Troubleshoot Connection Problem" in Kies

This has been mentioned in a few other phone specific threads, but pretty sure this will work for any android phone running:

Android 2.2 (Froyo)

Flash 10.1

I have used Kongregate to play games on my computer for over a year now, but this app seems to work great. Browse up to 300 of their flash based games with the option to download them to your SD card for play without 3g coverage or WiFi.

The messaging system wont let me post links since I have not yet posted 8 times, but google: kongregate arcade for android

and you will most certainly find what you are looking for. Sorry!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cms062407:
just got my captivate and want to root it and install a custom ROM (still have a lot of research to do on how to install ROMS)

but basically, I was curious is there only ONE program to root a phone? or are there various different programs we can utilize to root the captivate? If there are different programs, do they do anything different to the phone, or all the same thing?

secondly, my friend told me I need to get ODIN. (still have to do research to figure out exactly what ODIN is and does) Same thing as the root, is there only ONE program for ODIN? or various developers who have ODIN software?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
There are multiple ways to root, they ask do the same thing more or less. They put a file into your phone that you use to flash and give you root access.

There is more then odin. One click is most common but depending on your phone may not be the safest.

What are you looking to do with you're phone? Just root, or flash roms?

This is how I Fixed my WIFI on Cyanogen 7 mod.

It has worked for a few others, hope it works for you.

(Making this thread, cuz I keep seeing same Q on the CM6,7 thread).

1. Press Menu and go to settings

2. Wireless & Networks

3. Wi-Fi settings

4. Click Menu, advanced, Regulatory Domain

5. Change the channel from 11 to 13 (you can try others as well)

6. Try Connecting to Wifi again. It should work now with no problem

Note, this is only to the few having problems not connecting, or connecting but wifi not working etc.

Hope this helps.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] SefEXE:
Well, I hadn't tested it before changing channels, but I know it wasnt working with the previous CM7 nightlies...

After switching to 13 however, it does work now.

So thank you! :D

EDIT: Well, I thought it worked... It was just Google that worked apparently. D:
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Yeah...

...this isn't really fixing the wifi issues that still plague the slide. Hopefully the new Froyo OTA that got sniped from T-Mo will be able to help. Changing your reg domain will just not do the trick.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] r0man:
Google.com (and the mobile variant) are cached by default in Android, which is probably why you thought it was working.

Anyone know how to change the ui sounds on the aria? running CM7 Nightly build 8

I found a video on youtube of some dude doing it on his droid using RootExplorer and copying the *.ogg file of choice to the system/media/audio/ui, * being renamed to what you want the sound to be, for me it was Lock.ogg. I get an error saying that there isnt enough memory to do this and my internal phone memory has about 80 mb free. Dont know what to do...Anyone else?????

Thanks.

Edit: this is the file I want to use as my lock sound to go with the CM7 screenlock animation:

Note: I have converted it to a .ogg file already but couldnt post it on here because it is an invalid type.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] drowningchild:
i would say open up the update.zip file go to system/media/UI and replace the .ogg files and flash the zip as you would any other
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] jeebuz:
You can't change files under /system while the phone is booted. You have to either adb push the file while in recovery or do as what was stated above.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] blakermagee:
thanks, I'll try and see if that works.

Edit: I tried to repack the Rom into a zip and guess I did something wrong. I'm pretty sure I dont know what I'm doing. If anyone can spell it out in the simplest terms on how to put the .ogg file into the rom zip, please do so. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO Shift 4G General] viperv303:
So, just curious if anyone knows if there's away to fix this or not. But I'm have problems with the camera and it focusing on close up objects. The only reason I bring this up is because when the camera app "tries" to focus, the subject in question will come into focus, clear as a bell, and then go right back out of focus and it'll take the picture. And yes, I've got spot focus on, and tap and hold the screen where the subject is. still nothing.

i'm hoping this isn't one of those hardware to software hindsight's where there's no way to force the camera to focus where you want it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Heelfan71:
Not sure tap and hold screen part. You have your finger on the screen when taking the pic? Maybe I just misunderstood you. But you normally tape the screen where you want to focus and then it should focus automatically and then just snap your picture.
[EVO Shift 4G General] EricSS619:
Nah, you do have to tap and hold in order for it to take the photo, thats normal. My camera focuses though and takes the picture no problem.
[EVO Shift 4G General] viperv303:
yeah, you can either click the little shutter button or tap and hold a spot on the screen and it'll focus there and snap the picture.

guess i should have been more clear. its having a problem doing macro focusing. if the subject is a food foot or more away, it focus every time, perfectly.

the problem is when i'm trying to take a photo of something very close to the camera. And the only reason I'm asking about this is because when it "tries" to focus, the image will indeed come into perfect clarity, and then go right back out. and sometimes several times as if the focusing is trying to find the right spot. and ultimately it just gives up and everything is blurry. And I'm left going what the...? because obviously it can focus on it, but why wont it?

My temporarily solution for now is to zoom in that tiny bit allowed and use that to get as close to the subject as i can before the auto focus stops working and get the picture that way. still not really what i want, but it'll work.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Compusmurf:
Set the camera to AUTOFOCUS, open the keyboard and use the ENTER key as the camera button.

Additional tips.

Turn OFF shutter sound and timestamp to speed up the photo taking process.

Leave ISO and Whitebalance to auto as they seem to work pretty well on the shift.

Quality HIGH

Geotag off (unless you REALLY need this)

NO review speeds up time to next shot.

Center area metering mode seems to work surprisingly well on the shift, especially with flash set to auto.

Also, note, the CLOSER you are to an object you are photographing, the more still you NEED to be. Panaramic/outside shots with a large DOF are awesome. Closeups at 6", you seriously gotta lay off the coffee and brace yourself well. 1mm of hand movement will blur your photos really bad. That's a intake of breath or exhale!

This isn't exactly a professional high speed Nikon with prime lens we're working with. Set your expectations accordingly.
[EVO Shift 4G General] EricSS619:
Ok, I take back what I said about it working for me because I have the same exact problem with it looking focused and then going out if focus.
[EVO Shift 4G General] StringerE:
I'm seeing the same problem. It focuses very clearly just before snapping the shot, but then the picture it takes is out of focus. I've tried the tips here and nothing improved on the problem.
[EVO Shift 4G General] yokken:
Cameras need light to focus. It's going in and out of focus because it doesn't have enough light to tell where the object is in relation to the background. Plus you can only macro so close with a camera lens. Try getting more light in your shots and see if it helps focus. I ran into this yesterday and fixed it by moving the object to a better-lit location.
[EVO Shift 4G General] P-Dub:
I know this thread is old, but I think this is a big problem. Even if the subject is well lit, and you use spot metering or tap on an object just a few feet away to focus, the lens will focus and you will see the object become really detailed, then the focus decides to focus on something behind it, rendering the object blurry. This is the case with almost every photo that I take of any object within 3 feet.

Lets say I take a photo of a flower outside in the daylight. Any foliage behind the flower will be focused on, even if you press directly on the middle of the flower.

My theory is that it seems to focus better in lower light situations, where your subject is the only thing lit. If the entire frame of view is well lit, it will make the majority of the image sharp.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
Tried searching but didn't find any old topic about it.

However i recall reading some members complaining about this

i always make sure i have enough space to do an upgrade, or install a new app

however this error keeps poping up very often

another similar error is

Unknown

error - 18​

these 2 errors are very easy to reproduce when you select the UPDATE ALL button in Market

or even when trying to upgrade or install 3 or more apps at a time

seems like whatever is the default size for the TEMP cache is too small

If any one knows which line of code we can edit to assign it more space, that should solve the problem
[Nexus S General] JRG1392:
I've gotten this and I have hardly anything installed so it was obviously a mistake. I tried to install right after and it worked fine. There's so many random bugs on this thing. Ugh
[Nexus S General] knytphal:
I get this every so often on my phone as well. It's moderately annoying, but usually just trying to reinstall the app works for me.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
i fixed my problem with getting unsuccessful downloads. this is what i did... open titanium backup, press backup/restore, find download manager in the list of apps and press on it, then press wipe data. and it worked :)
[Nexus S General] aktorun:
Just thinking loudly !!!

Could not your problem be related to USB ON/OFF mode? i.e. you might be trying to install an app from the market while your phone attached to your PC via USB and USB mode is ON on the phone. So, your SDCard is read only mode somehow.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Worth looking into, but it should only be an issue if he's using apps2sd (or whatever it's called in Gingerbread). Apps are installed to /data/apps unless you've pushed them to the sdcard.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
this is a great idea, definitely worth giving it a shot

i did the same but it was only done for the market app, not yet for the download manager
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
that's not the cause

as it works fine (install / upgrade) if i just hit retry

if the USB was mounted, it would always fail to access the internal SD, the market will always be unable to download/install

[Nexus S General] phillevy:
I continue to have these market problems with CM7 - and had exactly the same with custom roms on my Hero :(
[Nexus S General] RobbieCrash:
Seems to be IO related. I can reproduce by copying large files to/from /system or /sdcard

Large being defined as 25MB+
[Nexus S General] shrooms90:
I only get this error when i try to install 2 apps at the same time. I.e. when my apps r being restored from market after factory reset. Or when an app from market is being installed and i try to install one downloaded from xda at the same time
[Nexus S General] RickROM:
I have also been getting this error on stock 2.3.3
[Nexus S General] Androyed:
I get this error too, and I'm not rooted. It happens when I press 'update all'. When I manually update that app after the error, it updates just fine.

It's not really annoying or anything, it just happens. But it's not related to Custom ROMs.
[Nexus S General] DougB541:
thank you for this!
[Nexus S General] kaiser_bun:
That's what's worked for me when I've had this issue come up on my Vibrant. I can't attest to it being an update problem with the ROM or a problem with the footprint restored when I reload my apps using Titanium, but the Wipe Data has done the job.

All else failing reinstalling the app has worked. The one time the reinstall didn't (error code message instead of insufficient storage) I had to wipe the cache for the Market (Google Play) app to get it to work.

I also have to give credit to my buddy, as he has taught me alot of this stuff. Also he is the one that has helped me with the development of my program when I got stumped. I wouldn't even have this phone if it wasn't for him.

Also I would like to throw some credit to thatdudebutch (First dj05 rom I saw) as I used the apk's from his Super Dark Rom! The reason calculator isn't ported. If anyone would like that to be included, just attach it and I'll get it done.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DangerPanda:
If you want something stable, use the modded SE roms like Eternity or X10iUser's rom. ( Basically Sony's normal 2.1, with some theming and tweaking; no Flash on these ones )

If you want to experiment with the newer Android versions, I'd suggest using Z's FreeX10 2.2 b2. However, this rom is still under beta stage, most of the functions work, but there will definitely be some glitches here and there. ( FreeX10 2.2 is capable of Flash 10.1 )

PS: do everyone a favour and make sure you READ all the info of that rom before posting in the dev section.

Best of luck.

True, the >2.1 ROMs are nice, but I completely rely on my phone. There's still too many bugs, and they aren't 100% stable. Plus I see no benefit other than Flash, which is not a benefit to me.

I have not had a single reboot or issue whatsoever.. I have found it to be 100% stable..

Well if you consider having your quadrant score nearly double (mine is 1500+ now, was like 800 before), not to mention the far superior memory management of froyo, I think you'll see there are far more benefits than just flash. Do some research on it..
