[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricobhi:
I'm sorry for posting in multiple threads on this issue, but several people seem to have raised questions in many forums about Google Voice not working on their X10 after upgrading to various versions of the 2.1 software, but all of the threads seem to have died with no resolution. Has anyone figured out how to get around this issue where outbound calls are displaying the number on the phone's SIM instead of the Google Voice number? I only upgraded to 2.1 on my AT&T Xperia X10 a few days ago, so just now am experiencing this problem, despite using GV without an issue on several phones for almost 2 years.

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mtk87:
Hi to all, searched along the forum but no answers found for that...

I was just wondering why when we passed from WinMo+SD to Nand the touchscreen started to recognize 2 point near each other as one single point: if the fingers are too near in one coordinate, IE quite same Y coord, doesn't matter X coord, the Y coord became the same for both fingers and you aren't able to keep them divided (found this while playing SliceIt, but also dev tools shows the problem)

When we were off the SD there wasn't that problem! I'm not asking for a fix, just wanted to know why that happens, it's because the missing ts-calibration file we had in every winmo+SD rom?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
The HD2 always had that issue with it's multitouch... even in Winmo. It was there with SD builds too.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Newanzer:
I have a real Malata Zpad (from China) which I have been trying to get a new ROM installed (for english GUI). I tried both the Zpad rom and the GTab roms. In both cases nothing worked. I have been unable to boot the tablet and need to do an NVflash. The only one I can find is for the Gtab and the hardware is just different enough that I do not think it will work. Does anyone have a nvflash bootloader.bin for a Zpad?

Update: Tried the GTab NVflash. It didn't work. Found the original stock flash here: http://www.ez-pad.net/android-1340-1-1.html.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lanegd01:
nvflash for malata

can you post how you manged all this. I am a newbie to android and I have zpad that I want to take back to scratch. Tried CWM but with the gtab mod I used it just runs over CWM

Thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
I also bricked my Zpad some time ago, and finally unbricked it.

Here is the thread where I told about my attempts:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1039547

One of the main thing I learned at that time is that the odmdata flag is one of the keys. It is really linked to the boot image you use. In the thread above, I used --odmdata 0xbb0c0011 with the various parts extracted from nvflash_t2_mp_wifi_1202.rar.

Later on (and not announced on the thread above), I also succeeded to flash directly the gtablet files from thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950, but this time using --odmdata 0x800c0011.

You should also take care of which bootloader you send to nvflash (using the --bl command line flag). Some of them for example did load but stopped immediately without doing anything. Try first to use the bootloader.bin that comes in the rar or zip archive with all the other files (bct, img, cfg ...) and if this fails, try to use another bootloader, from another file (but in this case use a relative path, like -bl ../another-directory/bootloader.bin) instead of copying the bootloader.bin in your current directory. The reason for that is that the bootloader.bin is also copied in the tablet for normal boots, so the one that comes with the rar/zip is important and should not be overwritten b the temporary bootloader.bin you use only during the nvflash run.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bytie:
Hi I managed to use the viewsonic gtab after installing ROM. You need to root first.

Its some time ago now so i do not remember what i did exactly

but after installing ROM (look at market) and rooting you start the tablet while simultaneously pressing the volume up. Make a backup and place the update files on the sd card. There are some real good posts here on xda where it is explained in detail. Just use th search feature :) good luck!

BTW: My malata has 3g too but I did not manage to get that working yet because i think it is not available in the gtab version...

[Nook Color General] pasqualebambino:
So I have rooted and autonootererered. I have Zeam launcher up and running. No issues.

However, when I long press and try to add a shortcut, it just jumps back to the screen. Nothing happens. I can however add icons to desktop through app list by long pressing.

Also, I would much prefer Launcher Pro as I already paid for it for my EVO. However, I cannot seem to change the icons (phone icon, etc) Want to use it for widget purposes, but dont want inactive icons such as phone and contacts sitting on the dock...

Is there a workaround for this?
[Nook Color General] Novaglarion:
These are known issues. There are multiple options that can be found by searching the forum.

1. open the app drawer press and hold on the app you want an icon on the homescreen. you will be able to drag it to the homescreen

2. edit your launcher pro settings on your phone, back up and restore on your nook. (search the forum, i think someone has a blank backup or something.

I think the answer is you would need to ask the vendor/forum where that firmware came from .

A Custom Rom does not normally contain Odin etc so it may not be a custom rom .Leoon says the same .

[G Tablet General] Neudle:
Hello,

I've read a few posts about people purchasing gTabs that were returned to the store.

Is this from specific retails only and how do you track down those that have returned units? Are all stores willing to re-sell a returned tablet?

Thanks in advance. I have a gTab and my wife has decided she'd like to switch from her laptop. Hoping we can track one down for her.

[G Tablet General] doctorisin:
Purchasing returned tablets

Sears outlet (www.searsoutlet.com) will display available tablets and they appear fairly regularly. The catch is they are usually only available for in-store purchase and they usually sell pretty fast. Not surprising, since they are usually priced around 279 USD.
[G Tablet General] kylelipp:
The buy instore is really dependent on the store and the customer service people.

SearsOutlet.com had one about two weeks ago, I called the store to ask if they could ship it. The answer may vary but here's what you should do:

1. tell the automated answering machine, "Electronics" and "Store" or "Floor" (can't remember) , the Call center people you usually get can't help you and will just direct you to the Sales staff on hand. You need to talk to someone physically in the store. So listen for the option to talk to a rep on the floor.

2. Make sure they actually have the unit on hand.

3. Ask about shipping it.

a. The manager I talked to in Buffalo, NY(Scott Nash) Said that Sears will ship it for you.

4. You pay for it on the searsoutlet.com site and then give the confirmation number in the store, and I guess they'll arranged for a UPS Pickup.

I got it about 4 days later. If the people in the store give you trouble complain to @sears on twitter. Maybe they can help. They acknowledged me when I thanked Scott and Roland the guys who helped me. :)

Good Luck.

PS: Seems like you have better luck seeing them on the outlet site between 8 and 10 am, either they sell like hotcakes or its a bug. But I would see em in the morning and then not see the tablet in the evening. just go to searsoutlet.com and search for viewsonic that way you'll see the case too if you want it. you shouldn't get much else. click the one you want. if it says they don't have it in your area click view all available and click on the store info. the phone # will be there if you need to call them.
[G Tablet General] jshea:
I picked mine up at a Sears store for $279. It was listed on searsoutlet.com, try "searsoutlet.com/d/products.jsp?md=srh_md&stxt=tablet" (I'm too new to post outside links). They'll show up there for a couple of hours to a couple of days. You should check once or twice a day and be ready to pounce!

It was missing the manuals (I already had the pdf's) and usb cable (I have plenty). So far I'm happy with it.
[G Tablet General] Neudle:
Thanks for all the replies.

Unfortunately our Sears is the size of a convenience store and they never had them for sale. I tried searching on the next closest location but nothing wanted to come up. :p Haha maybe we don't have any others here in Montana.

We do however have two Staples within two miles of each other. I stopped at one and the manager said they had nothing. All units had been returned to Viewsonic.

I'll keep searching, thanks again for the information.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigsmitty64:
So...I don't think this has been brought up here before, so I figure I'll be the dummy who asks. :) If I recalibrate (bump charge), and wipe battery stats, is it safe to assume that swapping out batteries (spares) will mess this up? I plan on picking up a spare battery, but wondered about this. Any input? Thanks in advance.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ua549:
I just swap batteries when needed about midday. I ignore the battery stats. They don't affect my use of the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigsmitty64:
I understand that wiping stats does not "improve" battery life. but I have no problem believing that with a recalibrated battery (@ 100%), wiping stats will help the phone/battery meter "read" more correctly.

I thought so too, but I believe coupling it with a bump charge helped me a lot. I'll explain:

I recalibrated my battery about a week ago, (didn't know about wiping stats) I improved by about 3 or 4 hours daily, bringing me up to about 15 hours of use on a charge.

However,before I posted this thread, I did a recalibrate along with a wipe, then allowed the battery to drain and then a complete recharge. As of right now (27 1/2 hours later) I'm still looking at 30% :D

However, thats not why I started this thread though, I am simply wondering if swapping batteries back and forth will affect the stats and how the phone reads the state of the battery. (makes sense that it would I guess)

any input on THAT would be awesome, thanks in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuriousTech:
True. Unplugging the charger as soon as it shows 100% won't give you a full charge since it's not really accurate. I believe the charge complete notification is triggered by the charger shutting down. Not positive but I have noticed that can be triggered at varying times after 100% is reached.

Swapping batteries does mess it up but I can't say how much. There's always going to be a difference in charge between the two, and depending on different brands, a difference in the battery capacity and voltage at different % levels.

In short: The charge circuit measures amps going in and coming out, and remembers voltage levels at different times, so swapping batteries or using external chargers probably confuses it a bit.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e4e5nf3nc6:
Would it be possible to just create a separate batterystats file for the spare battery and swap out the files when the batteries get swapped out?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boumbles:
There was a post recently by a Google engineer, Dianne Hackborn (can't link yet, just google "Dianne Hackborn battery stats" and you should find it).

It explains that the battery stats come from data/system/batterystats.bin and are reset every time you unplug with a "relatively full charge." The file is reflected in the battery use screen.

It won't affect how much battery level is shown to you or how long your battery lasts.

Having to rebase after 3.0 is cut next month is double the work for samsung, assuming they've already started rebasing for 2.3. Probably would go faster to drop the current iteration being worked on, instead of finishing that build, just to start again on the next one.
