[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mdtolic:
Sorry but, believe me, I've been dealing with this all week and I have read every post possibly pertaining to this subject, but I can't find a fix.

Went to flash the latest Bionix and PC (Windows XP-32/64-Bit HP) won't recognize my Vibrant. It's the only machine I've ever used with this phone. I plug in and get the USB icon and the Android Debug icon in the menu bar. Pull it down and it says "USB Debugging Connected" & "USB Connected". I can "Connect USB Storage" if I like, and it says "connected", but it's never recognized by the PC no matter what.

I can go into "Media Player" mode and "KIES" and same thing, it's just the USB icon instead of the Green Android. I've changed cords. I've used all the ports, front & back. Flashed back to Nero-5. I've gone into download mode and ODIN doesn't pick it up either.

32-Bit drivers are updated, but I've been doing a lot of install/reinstalls. The last thing I did on this device was flash Bionix-V. A couple weeks later I updated my wife's stock Vibrant via KIES.

What the hell can I do now? Thanks

edit...nevermind, sorry...at least i bumped you!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mdtolic:
Ha! Thanks TS10. And Mounting was certainly part of the problem. I could connect the USB storage and, in fact, it would say “connect” on the phone (“You can now transfer files between your SD card and PC” or something close to that), but it would still not show up on the PC. That’s what was driving me CRAZY.

But get this… Late last night, out of total frustration, I plugged the cable into a USB hub, that was connected to a removable HDD, and suddenly the Vibrant was recognized. I couldn’t believe it. I had plugged directly into that same USB port, on the back of the machine, at least 6x. Why the hell would it connect through a USB hub?!

I have no friggin’ explanation. But I’m running the latest Bionix now! At least I though that until I just check in here.

I just switched over from the Droid world and was wondering if there is a noob guide or what is the best action to take right now? Should I wait for the update before I go unlocking? Yada Yada

Thanks for any help you can point my way.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
unlocking... define? you sim unlocking your phone? you dev unlocking?

in terms of noob guide to general phone... stick the sim in, start the phone, follow the wizard... done.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelyRiver:
Hey

I'm talking about Dev unlocking, I don't need to unlock to another carrier just looking to see if I can unlock to get some of the better beta apps that are out there. Or to get access to the file system so I can install a simple ringtone they should of allowed for in the first place.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
for dev unlocking, you can do it now with no repercussions. not sure what the go will be when the update comes though.

[General Questions and Answers] lardman64:
Hey guys!

I've been lurking a while here and I decided to play around with my phone a bit and ended up bricking it! No worries though I found a ROM (UK ROM) from and-developers and flashed my phone. Problem is, my phone is originally WIND MOBILE from Canada it has no internet access with this ROM!

Someone told me the Brightpoint ROM from the US was identical to the WIND MOBILE but that ROM is not available on the and-developers website. Does anyone know where I can find a WIND MOBILE or Brightpoint ROM?

I didn't post this in the relevant forum because the website would not allow me :s

EDIT: Hey Molohov already uploaded this ROM for me. Thanks :)

[Focus General] BigwaveMx:
Hi. Some weeks ago, i bought a Focus. I use it in Mexico city with Telcel carrier, and I place the apn configuration to use 3g (850 hsdpa). Everything goes right but after 3 days, the 3g connection stop working. I dont know why, but to fix this, i need delete and create again the apn configuration. But this works only for a while. I unlock the phone with fastgsm service. Any one knows how to fix this permanent??

Thanks in advise.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
Ill do anything to fix this.

More often than not, YouTube will tell me 'there was a problem playing the video. touch to retry'.

This is unacceptable. Also, when a video does play, it will play halfway, stop and do what seems to be loading the rest of the vid.

Please tell me there is a tweak or something or other that I can apply, hopefully via EPST or a modified YouTube app.

Really looking forward to fixing this problem. Today I was attempting to show a very interested barnes and noble employee a video of honeycomb on the nook...the video would not play. Needless to say, I was a little embarrassed.

Please help!

Thank you thank you

Please elaborate on the modded flash player. I was using the YouTube app to attempt to play the videos. Even if I go to the youtube mobile site, it launches the youtube app and then...you guessed it, it doesnt play. Ive applied various tweaks in epst. tomorrow, ill be able to try real world 3g action, playing vids via the youtube app. i could actually try it now...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Ah I see. Well they do seem clear, but I can't personally tell you any results because personally haven't had to use them. Though for the flash player go to te thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688054 download the zip in the first post. Put it on the root of your sd card and install like any other app. THOUGH you need to uninstall your current flash player for this to work. Also, DO NOT update your flash player after you install the patched one. Hope this helps. :)

I'm pretty sure is the 3G hack for faster speeds messsing with YouTube It happened to me before you probably changed something that you shouldn't had, do a nandroid backup and flash the role.clean and if YouTube plays then you did something wrong with the hack, male sure you only put the 0 and the 0.0.0.0 on the HTTP wtv proxxys only no the one on top, that's what I did wrong and my YouTube would only play in wifi

You don't need to flash the clean rom you can check the setting first :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
On my wife's phone, if I restore a Nandroid there are always major issues. One backup causes it to hang on the Samsung screen and die, another causes tons of force closes and can't do anything. I always have to reflash over the restores to get it working. Is this a bad CWM install? I used the 2.5.5 download.

Thanks.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGi760:
Are you flashing a kernel after you do the restore? Nandroid doesn't backup or restore the kernel.

The way I usually restore now is to wipe, reinstall the base rom, and then advanced restore->/data. It seems to help get around nandroid's quirkiness.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
AHHHH! Yes, different battery icon with %! Dammit! OK, now I can do a new backup since I didn't install that yet. Only mod for silencing battery full sound which is ion my phone too and backs up and restores just fine.

[Wildfire General] Harmonial:
A HTC Wildfire was purchased for a family member, theres no ability to change the font size, so i was going to use "Font Changer" i messed about for ages, finally got the phone rooted, and put wildpuzzle on it.

Went to use Font Changer but it says an error of "system write required", and tells me my nand needs to be unlocked for me to use the application, i was under the belief that when i rooted my phone with unrevoked 3 it unlocked the nand.

I've had no experience with android phones other than tonight, as i use an iphone myself.

If any one could point me in the right direction, or call me a noob and send me toward a topic i may of overlooked, i would be very grateful.

Also, it's was on 2.1 when i rooted it, but i upgraded to "WildPuzzleROM_2.2.1 v0.8" afterwards, with that being the 2.2 i don't know if that means the HBOOT changed? and doesn't allow me to write, like i said, i'm not sure about this

Thanks

only thing i can think of is go to rom manager and upate it and see if that works but ive neva seen this before try searching on xda and see wat it brings up

[Wildfire General] Harmonial:
Thanks for the speedy reply! going to look into that thread now, it mentions about full nand unlocking so it could be something there.

I'll let you know how it goes
[Wildfire General] Harmonial:
it appears the part about fully unlocking the nand is device specific, in which the wildfire doesn't appear to be supported?

I'll look at the rom manager though and have another mess about and see if i can see anything
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
NAND Unlock here probably requires to S-OFF, which is not available for Wildfire yet. This is what also probably explains the "System Write Error".

Also, just to confirm, updating to WildPuzzle 2.2.1 will not update your HBOOT since danne has removed the HBOOT from the 2.2.1 update package. (Same goes for all other Custom ROMs)
[Wildfire General] Harmonial:
Thanks, i think i eventually realised that a full nad unlock wasnt avalible on the wildfire currently, but thanks for confirming it for me :)

looks like they'll have to make do with the small text for now
[Nook Color General] cwininger:
just looking for some input here. what does everyone think about the pros/cons of these two tablets? after everything's all said and done, which would you rather invest in?

The nook seems to have a much better screen and a more appealing form factor. it's also $130 cheaper.

the G tablet appears to have a mediocre screen but it already has the horsepower/expandability of tablets that will cost twice as much (ie. xoom). i know the xoom will shred this thing in benchmarks, but for all intents and purposes the g tablet can handle anything software-wise that's currently available with flying colors.

i'm assuming both will have a fully functioning port of honeycomb in the near future (whether official release or custom rom) so software-wise they will probably be pretty similar.

is the tegra 2 and added expandability of the g tablet worth the extra $ and putting up with the marginal display, or is the lower cost/better build-quality of the nook worth accepting the limited hardware? am i missing something in my comparison of the two?

would love to hear from the community on this debate.
[Nook Color General] ColoradoPhoney:
How are you planning on using it?

I went with the Nook because I like the form factor, it has a great screen, and more than enough power for what I want it for (e-reader, browser, portable multi-media, simple games, etc). Lacking a mic port and decent sound are the only two real negatives, but headphones do sound quite good.

I don't yet consider tablets to be replacements for PC's or Laptops so far as doing any heavy lifting, but the NC can probably handle the majority of business and entertainment needs for most people (minus phone features, which *may* be partially remedied is Blutooth support is worled out by the awesome XDA people working on custom ROM builds...)
[Nook Color General] cwininger:
good question, and probably the main factor people will use to decide between the two.

for me, i originally liked the idea of the nook because i've wanted an ereader for awhile, and plan on using it to read magazines, books etc pretty often. but i also want to use it as a multimedia device- streaming video/movies etc. i like the idea of gaming on a device that is larger than my phone. i have lots of fun playing games on my droid x (my two faves are gun bros and dungeon defenders) and the potential for using a tablet device as a killer gaming console seems to be limitless. the G tablet seems to fit the multimedia/gaming niche better, but i think it will be inferior for e-reading because of the screen. i guess my question is: does the superior screen/e-reading capability of the nook (and lower price) outweigh the untapped hardware potential and video/gaming prowess of the G tablet?
[Nook Color General] thedjo:
I was shopping G-Tablet and Nook as well. In the end I wanted a smaller form factor that can be easily held for a period of time for reading. I'm not a big gamer so Nook is my choice.

I think you would miss Nook's screen if you pick the G-tablet! The IPS screen is just awesome.

Did you look at Tmobile G-Slate as well?
[Nook Color General] Bandage:
I've owned both... And honestly its hard to compare. Main reason is the size factor. That will ultimately be the deciding factor...

Reading on a 10 inch had its benefits, as well as drawbacks. Holding the Gtab for extended amounts of time is tedious. The quality of the screen (viewing angles) really does not affect ebook reading etc. Honestly unless its laying in your lap flat, you won't notice the loss of angle.

For gaming... There is no comparison. Tegra2 @1 ghz rocks even the most graphic intensive games.

So... I'd say the following in summary=

For heavy reading and light gaming, coupled with moderate productivity and light media... Go with the NC

For light reading, heavy gaming and moderate productivity & media... Choose the Gtab.

Its really a matter of personal preference... Depending on what your ideal usage looks like.
[Nook Color General] cwininger:
uggh... this sucks. i feel like i'm right in the middle of these two categories. maybe i should buy both and see which i like better...
[Nook Color General] Bandage:
Understandable... That's exactly what i did lol. Also have the Dell streak 7 heh.
[Nook Color General] myadidas1981:
I'm coming off the G Tablet and still waiting for my Nook Color to come in, but I'll chime in with why I returned the Viewsonic.

Ultimately, it came down to cost and quality. There is a lot of hardware under the hood of the G Tablet, but for the $400 I paid, I regretted not just getting an iPad. It was really a build quality thing for me. I was willing to look past the horrendous viewing angles and the weird 3D effect in portrait mode, but I started getting some screen rippling, and the unit would kind of "creak" as if cheaply constructed. The rippling was so small that it didn't bother me, but it sure made me paranoid, because it showed up after just a week.

I will try to post after I've rooted my Nook and played with it a little while to give a comparison, but I'm pretty confident the screen is going to blow away the G Tablet. Probably build quality, too. I don't want it to come off as me hating on the G Tablet, because I really wanted to love it (it was a sweet cbr reader), but I couldn't risk having the thing crap out on me once the warranty ran out. For the money, if the NC dies after a year, I won't feel as duped out of my money and will still be able to replace it with whatever the new thing is.

I should also comment that I'll probably buy an iPad 2 later in the year so I have a big tablet for comics, movies and games and a smaller tablet for e-reading and light multimedia use. Because I do miss my G tablet for the multimedia uses.
[Nook Color General] ta2025:
The Quadrant benchmark for the Xoom is 1826. With Honeycomb and 1.1GHz overclocked kernel, I just got 1728 running the same benchmark on the Nook Color, so i'm not sure I'd call that "shredded"?
[Nook Color General] Mikroft:
Side by side the NC screen destroys the gtabs mediocre screen. Dell streak 7 has a crappy 800x480 resolution and also bad viewing angles.
[Nook Color General] theyownus:
I returned the g tablet because of the screen and weight. I could have looked past the weight or delt with it but the screen angles were so bad it was a chore to use. anything beyond black text on white was almost impossible to see unless directly in front of your eyes. I really wanted it to work too...

now that I picked up a nc and running honeycomb I'm glad I made this choice. I am also really liking the size and portability of the nc. for $250 I just dont see how you could go wrong
[Nook Color General] cwininger:
quadrant isn't an appropriate benchmark to use when comparing these two devices. besides, when apps start coming out that take full advantage of the tegra 2 it won't even be a discussion. that's not even taking into consideration what the dev's around here will be able to get out of the xoom.
[Nook Color General] epakrat75:
Agreed. Having owned one for a week, I'd say calling the screen mediocre is waaaaay too nice though. The NC is so much better. :D

While the Tegra2 destroys the NC's 530, it wasn't meant for that. I'd wait for the LG G-Slate pricing, etc. The XOOM is already a fail IMO due it's pricing, data plans and crippled wifi (until someone here at XDA remedies that). If either Tablet were to appear in a WiFi only capacity that'd be sweet too.
[Nook Color General] Canadoc:
For me reading in portrait mode on gtablet was horrible.Was too long and the horrible viewing angles made it impossible to get proper screen without weird viewing artifacts.....returned it and got the nook.

For flash though, the gtablet ran as well as my laptop
