I have same problem
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] alaindev:
Let me tell you first that your problem has nothing to do with Gingerbread.

It all depends on which build you are using, which version of kernel, and which version of radio.

The "robotic" voice, the echoes, and low volume problems are very common, and the solutions can be found in the thread relative to your build.

My wife loves my NC, she wants one for herself but doesn't want all the glitches I keep hitting due to my constantly trying the newest thing posted here on XDA.

So my question is what would be a great setup on a new NC for a non-techie type to use that is rock stable, has B&N/Android Markets, can play games like Angry Birds, still function as an eReader and if possible play Youtube videos?

Just use the nookie froyo or honeycomb builds that run off a Microsd card and leave the stock nook software as it is for the lady. Just boot off the microsd card when ever you use it and boot the stock off the emmc for the wifey.

You can also get another nook color. If you are like me, you don't like to share or hear complaints.

[Nook Color General] ChrisJ951:
I'd actually suggest 1.0.1 rooted, since I've found it has greater compatability than 1.1.0 and theres no real reasons to upgrade to 1.1.0 (you can get pinch zoom without it)
[Nook Color General] claytorj:
I'd suggest Stock 1.0.1 rooted (or 1.1.0 rooted if you prefer), with overclock.

hi,

how are the screws safed by samsung?

exactly what i want to know is how are the screws safed by unscrewing the first time to save the warranty?!

if i open the phone how can samsung see that? is there something special to the screws e.g. some lacquer on the screws that they can see you have opened your phone?

thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
Not sure but I'll will warn you that taking it apart even after removing all the screws is a huge pain, it doesn't just come apart it's still snapped together all the way around.

I didn't worry about mine because it was already apart for warranty repair (and not put back together right, left a gap, which is why I took it apart).

[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
Eww that vid with the creepy nails again

Let me tell you without the freak nails (or some special tool?) getting that plastic off is a pain. I used a tiny screw driver and worked at it for a while.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dukuletz:
I've opened mine and there are some kind of paint at the tip of the screw (see the picture below). I don't know if that is for waranty propose but i think it is not, because let say if you take your phone to a service center, they take the screws off, the same thing happens, the paint is take away. So there is no way for them to note it.

But there is a bigger problem :)) I'm sure when you try to take the scews off, you will damage some of them. So there will be a clear sign that you opened you phone.

And finally I recommand you to take it to a service center if it is under waranty. It is pain in the ... to open the back plate.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
The blue material is 'loctite' type stuff to help secure the screws from loosening, not related to any kind of 'intrusion detection'.

What is your reason for wanting to open it anyways? There's not much to do in there except break it and possibly void the warranty.

Only way we know is if the screws are slighty rounded off as we replaced them after each time we open them.

The colour on screws is just to fasten them nothing special.

mid section comes off with ease just start at the bottom of the phone and move the bezel off the sides of the phone a bit and yay almost drops off.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] elviroo:
ok thank you! this means they can´t see it if we dont damage the screws.

2 of my screws are a little bit scratched since it was in repair.... i never opened them myself.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dukuletz:
Hi, can you tell me where can I get some replacement screws?

I've got an issue with my camera (black blurry dots on pictures) and i opened mine and cleaned it up but the problem seemed to be a hardware one.

Now i have to take it to waranty for them to replace the camera. I'm looking for replacements screws cause I rounded and scratched mine and you can clearly see it. There is no way they gonna accepts it for waranty like that :(

[General Questions and Answers] Lok3sh:
Hey guys

So I have this app called Reliance Express Call which is an APK supplied by Reliance Mobile (indian phone company). I basically have a calling card from them which requires me to dial an access number, then dial my required number. This is automated by the app. Basically when I chose to call a contact, it asks me if I want to call through Reliance, or directly and I chose. Now this app conflicts with my google voice since google voice also asks me if I want to call directly or through google voice. So now its in an endless loop if I have both selected. It first shows me the reliance choice, then the gv choice then the reliance choice and just never makes the call. Is there a way to modify this apk so it waits for the google voice choice FIRST and THEN gives me the reliance choice? I don't know much about coding, but heard that the people on this forum were really good at it so figured I'd ask! Help would be much appreciated!

If it is something that might be possible, let me know and I will upload the APK.

Thanks!

On full battery or still plugged on the charger.... I know if u change your rom on half or low battery it really screws up the battery...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsfan1130:
I've never heard of such a thing. I've switched ROms many times while @ 30% or below. Regardless, I think it's best to be above 50% and on wireless.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tim.ton:
Why would it screw up the battery? I've installed many roms on many occasions and my battery was not fully charged. I'm gettng excellent battery life on CM7 right now (yesterday/today's uptime is almost at 19 hours and still at 40% with moderate usage).

I have the stock battery, mind you.

It really doesn't matter at all, just don't do it with 5-10%, don't want the battery dying while you are in the middle of a flash.

Make sure that it's just charged enough that it wont die in the middle of a flash. You don't want that expensive of a paperweight. Other than that being said, i've flashed roms with under 40% battery before.

My phone was running z's rom 2.2 for x10 when I took it out of my pocket and the screen was black. The blue lights turned on but not the screen. When I turned off the phone, it wouldn't turn back on.

The computer won't recognize it for flash tool or se fix software or battery won't charge if I hook it up to the charger. what do I do? I have never had this issue before. help would be awesome.

thanks. is it bricked?

Solution sort of: I took my phone in to ATT service center and they said my phone and battery weren't working. So I got a new phone for free. (THANK GOD) Xperia x10 refurbished. So I got to mod it all over again. lol. They couldn't tell me what I did wrong or anything. So I guess I have a solution. So whoever has an issue like me, lets just hope your phone isn't dead like mine :) The other sad thing was they didn't have a battery for me so they are sending me one through the mail. by tomorrow. one day shipping yess!!!!

I have a similar issue here.

I am using the CM6.1.3 custom ROM on my phone (Android 2.2). It ran out of battery(for its first time) this afternoon so I charged it and tried to turn it back on but it wouldn't. It just starts up until the Sony Ericsson logo and just fades out and a white light will turn on at the notification lamp for a while and then reboot again. I tried the Sony Ericsson update service to reinstall the software but I changed the firmware and baseband so it doesn't work and it doesn't seem to be able to boot into xRecovery either. What can I do? Help/advice appreciated!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omnikam:
Problem might be with the faulty offline charging.so your battery's flat.I believe there is a fix for the problem, you might need to borrow a battery, install the fix(check the Rom main page) then you should be good to go :

I know it sounds kind if odd.. bu[YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE]t is there a possible way to utilize the gps from an iphone on our tablets somehow?
[G Tablet General] TeutonicWolf:
Is there an app for that?

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

You'll need to find an app on iTunes (or if you've Jailbroken, on Cydia) that can output your GPS signal via Bluetooth in NMEA format

Then you can use one of the many "Bluetooth GPS" apps on the gTablet to receive the signal...There are several threads here discussing it (but none involve an iPhone)
[G Tablet General] soumikpal:
I hope not to be spreading misinformation here, but from all of the BT/iphone threads I've read on here - it's not gonna happen. I think iphone's BT capabilities are extremely limited with the stock iOS, so to begin even thinking about this you'd need to hack the iphone...

Could be wrong, but check the search for iphone and bluetooth and i think you'll find your answer-

EDIT: just jailbroke my iphone 3gs to test out MyWi, will also play with some of the BT apps to see if I have any luck with sharing the GPS...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] viperv303:
Figured this was a general Android app problem. And in case it matters, I'm running an HTC EVO Shift with stock room and rooted.

My problem, and this has been so since day one but its gotten to the point of bugging me too much, is that google maps will constantly run. i can kill it using taskiller, but it'll just come back after a few minutes. and normally with more than one copy. i do use it a lot which is why i don't just flat out delete it off my phone. however, it'll auto run its self without me doing anything.

for example. i can hit the kill all button (i've hidden the system apps) and it'll kill everything off and be fine and dandy. give it about 5 minutes and during which i don't even touch my phone, and when i refresh taskiller, maps is running again and is the only thing running, and their may be more than one copy of it running (aka more than one icon with the name "maps" under it).

so short of uninstalling it, how does one go about making it stop and stay stopped till i run it again? is there some program that's starting it? how do i find and destroy it? And yes i'm fairly certain its not latitude. i've never even run that program once. personally, i'd like to just uninstall it, but don't see it under titanium backup any where's. is it embedded in google maps or something?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lvnatic:
When you buy a phone you should 1st do some research about it's OS, how it handles memory and all that. You don't even deserve an answer you know that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] missparker76:
Why are you so obsessed with killing Google Maps?

If your phone works fine I don't see the problem. Android handles process killing by itself when needed. Task killing in Android is a bad reflex. Android doesn't work like WM.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] purline:
Hello Viper,

I played around with this for a little while, and here is what I came up with for ideas:

1. You have the 'Let Google use my location' enabled. Settings -> Location and security -> Use Wireless networks

2. You have some app that is tied to Google Maps, maybe not Latitude, but something.

I also have Latitude, but I found that if I leave the 'my location' setting unchecked, Google Maps stays away. Once Maps once, though, it is there until I reboot.

p.s. You deserve an answer. I can't figure out why people who don't even have the answer go out of their way to point out that they don't like your question.

And yes, you DO deserve an answer...people who criticize should be banned IMHO. Anyways...hope I helped...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogier666:
Google Maps can prefetch map data when you're not using the app, so it keeps burning battery power and data in the background.

You can disable prefetching and switch off network location, but then you'd have to switch it back on everytime you need it. In some scenarios killing the maps app makes more sense.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] albundy2010:
In android you DONT kill apps/process's/services unless there is a problem with the app itself.

There is no point in using a task killer unless you want to waste your battery for some reason. That is why you do not deserve a answer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jason Black:
Instead of being a jerk, you could have just avoided the thread. And, pretty much, there's no use killing it. If you're rooted, you can use titanium backup to freeze and unfreeze when you want to use it, but apart from that, inorder to avoid problems, just let it be.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jason Black:
I have latitude and trust me, im feeling the pain lol. Latitude is raping my battery at the expense of keeping my gf happy.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Meaple:
Go to Settings > Location. Uncheck GPS and wireless networks. It should be good enough to not run constantly. BTW, task killers are bad. Who ever thought it would be a good idea to have on Android is stupid and who ever installs a task killer is stupid too.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogier666:
Unchecked network location, switched off map prefetching, disabled auto updating, but when I rebooted Google Maps still started all by itself to download a few megabytes of data.

Task killers are a waste of time for most apps, but Google Maps is an exception. Google Maps is really a misbehaving app that needs to be tought who's boss.
