[HTC Inspire 4G] nacymex:
What worked for me was to fresh install (erase everything) the inspired hd rom, confirm gps, install rooted stock, reboot, and confirm gps. Works fast and finds signal within seconds in mexico.
[HTC Inspire 4G] simulatordos:
Thanks. Following that exactly worked for me as well. I also needed to be outside to get the gps to lock the first time (didn't have to do that out of the box, but just happy to get it to work).
[HTC Inspire 4G] smalis:
Perfect! Worked for me, I get lock within 30 seconds. Thank you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] simulatordos:
One other thing: if you have the speck case sold by AT&T, take it off when you first try and get a gps fix. It definitely reduces the ability of the phone to "see" the satellites the first time out.
[Nook Color General] DatterBoy:
I did it. Here's hoping I don't regret it. But for the sheer fact that I can paint using Sketchbook Pro with a stylus, I think I'm gonna dig it.

Still love my NC to death!
[Nook Color General] luigi90210:
i might but im not sure yet, i am liking the $200 off without contract at BBY right now so i might get one while the deal is still going around
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Not a chance.
[Nook Color General] lyam23:
Can't afford to. Would love a XOOM, though.
[Nook Color General] madtopcoder:
I will get one because I am going to develop apps on honeycomb. NC doesn't have all the features. I still love the NC.
[Nook Color General] bjitty:
I doubt it, but mainly because I'm not ready to spend that much on a tablet yet.

Also I saw it somewhere and it's true. 7" tablet = 1 handed tablet, 10" tablet = 2 handed tablet. I really like the size of the Nook Color. No doubt a 10" tablet would be nice for a lot of things, but the smaller tablet really works well I think.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Nope. Sure, if i found one new for $200, maybe. But my NC does so much, that i am more than happy with it. I would not change it at all.
[Nook Color General] thecalip:
I think 7" is perfect size. 10" is too big. If i am going to bring out a 10" tablet, I might as well bring out my laptop and can do 10 times more and faster with it.

Reading on the 7" on the portrait mode perfect.

I just hoping the dev here can get honeycomb to NC soon. I love the new HC interface. Running 2.2 on eMMC and it is rock solid.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Just waiting for Google to get off their keister and get honeycomb on AOSP...
[Nook Color General] MechaGen:
It's hard to beat the $250 price of the Nook. I've bought 5 of them and rooted them for family members. Everyone Loves them!

I've been playing with HCv4, but it's not ready for daily use. Can't wait for Honeycomb ADOP. The nook will be nearly perfect balance What's honeycomb is installed.
[Nook Color General] DatterBoy:
I agree about the Nook Color doing everything you want. I made the jump primarily for 1 reason: Autodesk Sketchbook Pro.

If the NC had a decent enough screen for me to use a stylus with, I probably would have never considered it. However, the higher resolution screen an larger work surface were definitrely a plus. $600 was definitely a lot to spend just to get those things, but all things considered,

honestly, what more can the XOOM do (besides camera related stuff) that we already can't do on our $250 Nook 95% of the time?

Feel the love.
[Nook Color General] A. Nonymous:
Not a chance. The price is just way, way too stiff for me.
[Nook Color General] player911:
how is the xoom $200 off?

I don't see any of this? I'll buy it right now for that price!
[Nook Color General] nebke:
Had the xoom came out in late January, I would have been in for one, but I went with the nook a few weeks ago and I am completely happy with it. I don't care for the cameras and I like the smaller size. GPS would be nice but thats about all I miss.
[Nook Color General] robedney:
Price point is too high for me. The NC is doing nearly everything I need and is fun to play with. If bluetooth becomes functional (fully) it will be the cat's meow for me ;) I'll certainly upgrade someday, but I'm waiting for the initial Android tablet offerings to settle out some first.
[Nook Color General] A. Nonymous:
I dunno. $600 is still really stiff for me for a tablet. Actually $600 plus a data plan. No thanks.
[Nook Color General] player911:
I seen where people were ordering the Xooms from Motorola directly using a 25% off accessories coupons that was working on the Xooms, lol, but they've fixed that already.

Best buy shows it for $799 in store only.

I'm looking for a 10" tablet really. I initially bought the iPad which is nice except lack of SD card and intrusive use of iTunes made it useless. If I can't pull files off the device while I am out, then it is completely dead to me.

I bought the NC because of the screen and price point but the Xoom has everything that I want. The NC is cool but it can barely run Honeycomb so I would consider it an end of life unit right out of the box.

The Xoom on the other hand comes loaded with honey comb and should be good enough for a few more versions.
[Nook Color General] hboot2.02:
no way

deep down everyone wants a xoom lol. but lets face it, for the price of a nook and a few minutes of work you have yourself one solid piece of equipment. i would buy 2 nooks over a xoom any day. great great stuff, and its only the beginning with roms so there is so much to look forward to.
[Nook Color General] funnycreature:
I ordered my Xoom while the Motorola site still had their 25% off glitch. So I got it for $630 free 2 day shipping and a free gel case. Main reason is that most applications act funny on my NC with Honeycomb.... My wife will probably kill me :D
[Nook Color General] don_ernesto:
nope

my tablet needs are totally satisfied with the nook. i'm not a gamer and i prefer to watch movies in the TV so i cannot think of a reason for wanting the xoom.

but to be fair........ before having the nook i didnt knew what were my tablet needs. would the xoom show me new needs? (dont think so at the moment)
[Nook Color General] jlmwrite:
Nope. Not only do I prefer the 7" form factor, the price point is too high -- especially in light of PCMag's review which said basically said the Xoom isn't really ready for prime-time. (Did Moto really disable the SD card slot?)

Nah, gonna wait and see what else is out there, and will continue to enjoy my NC for now.
[Nook Color General] funnycreature:
there's always the option of returning it... I wanted a bigger screen so I can work more easily on it. But I will not be sad should I realize it's not what I need.
[Nook Color General] player911:
Well the requirement of a tablet of for me is for selling websites. The 10" screen allows me to show customers images of various web design layouts easily. Also I need to be able to draw mock-up designs right in front of the customer. Kinda tight on a 7".

I just returned my brand new iPad because of the iPad2 announcement in a few days and because it lacked a memory card slot and its close ties with iTunes to function almost kills it. A tablet should be free of requirements of another PC. The iPad is more then capable of signing up for an iTunes account and activating itself without the need of a computer.

With the money I got back I decided to buy the Nook and play with Honeycomb to see if it would fit the bill but it looks as if it is going back asap. Maybe the iPad2 will be better if I can use the SD card attachment. Yuck.
[Nook Color General] funnycreature:
+1! I love the Nook though b/c of its size. I just want something with a higher productivity factor so I think we're in the same boat here!
[Nook Color General] Desperus:
Maybe I will think of a replacement in one year time, when quad processor tablets are all the rage. For the time being, the NC is more than sufficient for my needs, and I agree that the 7" form factor is much better in my opinion than the 10"
[Nook Color General] ClarkSt:
I ordered the Notion Ink Adam for $375, WiFi only, but they have a 3G veriosn ofr $499. For that price, it's worth taking a hard look at. Should get it in a week, or two, I hope. If that isn't everything everyone says it is, then the new HTC tablet is coming out soon... that could be a killer. I like HTC's products. But, for me, the price point is gotta be under $500 - preferably under $400. WiFi only is fine by me.
[Nook Color General] bruceko86:
I am on the other hand right now. I got a Xoom from costco but after 1 day of playing around I want a 7 inch tablet..

Xoom is really heavy and you can't really used it easily with one hand. And yes Homneycomb is awesome but if you install a wrong app, you whole tablet crashes....
[Nook Color General] poofyhairguy:
I got a Nook Color because I knew I couldn't go another year to get a Android Tablet, but I knew that all first gen Honeycomb models are gonna have edges and are gonna be underpowered in the long run. I mean, dual core is cool but the quad core Tegra 2 stuff (that smokes a Core 2 Duo) looks even better. So with a Nook Color I feed the desire for a tablet, but I wait to put down real money until generation 2. At that point I will flash it back to a eBook reader and give it to a bookwork in my life....
[Nook Color General] jcollierdavis:
I brought my NC for a few reasons. I wanted an easy to mod device that was hard to break. Well that and $250 was a much better deal than$ 600+

Sent from a NookColor using the xda app
[XPERIA X8 General] parisstc:
Hello All,

First of all I would like to say a big thank you to everyone contributing in this forum as it is very helpful and makes your life with gadgets interesting :D

I have some questions concerning App2SD

I have rooted my X8 using the modded superoneclick that uses the newer exploit for android 2.1 and after that used the Xrecovery way to install app2sd.

So here come the questions:

After the installation most of the applications needed to be reinstalled, has anyone else experienced the same thing?

I also saw that the phone was working much faster and 90Mbytes of free memory where being shown right after the hack.

Now after installing loads of applications the free memory shown is ~60Mbytes, does that mean that many of the apps dont get installed to the sdcard?

If I rerun the app2sd zip from Xrecovery will that move those apps or it will mess up everything?

Thanks in advance
[XPERIA X8 General] kuyagaol:
try install titanium backup.. if there is a2sd, so your app2sd is working.

i never get such problem

i use SOC 1.3.0 and script for app2sd2.1 mod (dalvik-cache to sd)

(not from xrecovery)
[XPERIA X8 General] parisstc:
well, a2sd exists but the available internal memory keeps going down..:confused:
[XPERIA X8 General] kuyagaol:
mmm.. lets check again,

try install terminal / shell

than :

$ cd /data/app

$ pwd

if the result is /system/sd/app

than your app2sd.sh script is right,

if still on /data/app ,, you must reistall app2sd, but uninstall it first.
[XPERIA X8 General] parisstc:
thanks for the reply

The result is /system/sd/app

so I wonder why the available internal memory keeps going down..
[XPERIA X8 General] evilteater:
when i type

cd/adb

it always show "not regconized internal promp.....bla..bla..."

what wrong???

i already copy all app2sd in memory card, and also make partisions ext3 and fat32
[XPERIA X8 General] kuyagaol:
now I'm wondering too.

what apps did u install btw.

if the a2sd is working, maybe data app is too big, coz app2sd didn't mount that dir into sd.
[XPERIA X8 General] kuyagaol:
did you 'cd' to 'adb tool' folder in your windows? using cmd right?

if you did, type : adb shell

if adb works., continue with your app2sd manual.

there's another tread deep about this btw
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vdubbub86:
Hey all, hope I can get some great help here as I already have before.... I just picked up a bluetooth ELM327 Dongle.. I am trying to use OBDGauge and or HOBD to be able to get some readings off my OBDII plug.. Problem I'm coming across right now is that it seems that my phone stays on the initializing screen and does not read anything... any suggestions??? Please???
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wakkawakkawakka:
Just wondering -- what do you guys read on your NC's? what's news apps? magazines? books? Have Calibre set up?

I've been using NY Times for tablet mainly..
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] timekeeper:
I mostly use Pulse for news, Reader's Digest, some comics (Sandman), and academic articles in PDF.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] A. Nonymous:
I spend a fair ammount of time killing pigs with birds tbh. I read my Instapaper that I put together. I sideloaded a ton of books with Calibre and I read those. I also have ACV on it and read way too many comic books. Gotta rot the brain somehow.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] csurfer:
I love the magazines. Good selection and growing. You can get a trial subscription and just cancel before 14 days and no charge.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Foetus:
I've been using both Pulse and Moregood News HD. Haven't quite decided which one I like best yet.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] OB1J3D1:
For books, I found that the Kindle app and amazon store offered lots of free classics. I've been considering a subscription to Nat Geo through the nook app since it's like $1.50 an issue. But, it looks like I can get a real print subscription for about the same price.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] dizx:
Try the World Newpapers app.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] epakrat75:
I like PressReader from the market. It offers the Chicago Tribune among many others. :cool:
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Sithben24:
I use ezPDFreader for magazines, and Pulse for news and stuff. Newsrob is better for feeds though only because it can do more than 25.

ACV is great for comics too.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] charm1718:
I use the same 3. EzPDF, ACV & Pulse.. I tried JJ Comics also. Not bad
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luigi90210:
i use pulse for reading, so far i love it
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] whitney.k:
Pulse and Huffington Post for me.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Kayak83:
I just downloaded a magazine from the B&N store to see how magazines would read. So far I'm not really happy with it. Text is too small. The article view is a thoughtful addition for our smaller screen size but it takes away from the overall "feel" of a magazine. Images are crisp as can be though, which is a real stunner. I was hoping for a better coffee table magazine-like experience. But it'll still be useful when traveling.

Now I know why in-store demo units have National Geographic loaded on them. Pictures looks really really great.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] celticchrys:
Moregood News HD seconded. It's a lovely app. If it just did Google Reader sync...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crotalus9:
This is probably a n00b question (which is appropriate since I'm a n00b . . .) but I have a home server running Win7. All my movies and photos and music are on it. I have no problems using USB to transfer media to my Streak (and to my awesome, dirt cheap Chinese tablet), but it would be great to be able to just connect to my network shares and copy the files over the WiFi. Is there an Android app that can do this? Paid apps OK.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
If you just want to copy the files you can use ES File Explorer, SwiFTP, AndFTP, or you can turn your phone into a Samba server and mount your SD Card as a network share and use windows explorer to copy to your phone.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dflohr:
ES Explorer worked great getting to FTP server. Getting to a LAN computer required me to enter the LAN IP address as a "server" and also woked fine.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derechbennoach:
I use astro with the smb plugin works on widows or Samba shares
[Xoom General] juancferrer:
Everywhere I've read this thing has 1gb of ram, but the running services tab in settings says only 520.
[Xoom General] jondwillis:
It could be that android is hiding what it is taking up itself, but I've yet to see my unused RAM higher than about 450 MB (after reboot.)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chidesd:
was wondering if there is a way to edit and change Icons of apps without a app?

Or is this something u have to build customly into a custom rom.

Im using a 2.2 mesmerize
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ExMM:
You can change the icon with android 2.3 gingerbread since it's built with "Theme Chooser", not with Android 2.2 as I know..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chidesd:
darn and I dought the galaxy S series wont have gingerbread anytime soon if at all altough im sure galaxy s could handle it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ExMM:
You can always install a custom rom... ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chidesd:
True but it doesnt seem like theres a whole bunch of people developing for the mesmerize.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] beancookie:
reallly? how do you do it without a launcher?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArsenalGoonr:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyggy:
I use flikie wallpapers (free on market) then u can use dodol wallpaper (free on the market too) to set the whole wallpaper on your phone...Gallery will usually try cropping it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArsenalGoonr:
Thanks, i hate the cropping
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
any picture 960x800 will be the exact size needed

or you can try Zedge from the market
[EVO 4G General] Fredrow425:
Anyone having trouble with the servers for Black Ops on the 360?
[EVO 4G General] tx_dbs_tx:
I assume since you posted this question in the EVO forum here at XDA that you are tethering your EVO to play Black Ops? If so there could be network trouble or maintanance going on. Also I doubt you will be able to play well due to the higher ping of wireless networks. But again I'm assuming you are tethering with your EVO, otherwise you need to go to a gaming site for help with your problem.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jeremyt727:
Help!!!

So I obviously have the Google Nexus s and I am running on Cyanogenmod 7 rc1 etc. Im actually using the honeybread theme which is really Amazing!

But I'm having trouble flashing the theme "Bliss" that I found in the "themes for CM7" form.. xam someone send me a link to wear to get the theme or something similar or someone to help me flash this tthing because every time I flash iit, it just stays in the splash image and that's it..

-Thank you
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] fosdos4790:
Did you download the right one? There's one for the RC and one for the nightly.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jeremyt727:
Yea I'm sure I did I actually tried flashing both! Lol! Like honestly I'm just trying to get that framework of that theme were everything flips open when you hit the menu button and etc. That's pretty cool and thats pretty much all I want :(

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olieebur:
Does anyone have a problem with their Atrix flashing a yellowish flash rather than a bright white when taking a picture or using it as a flashlight? I was wondering if it was just my phone that had a bad LED flash or if it's all Atrix..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airbillion:
Mine is yellow also.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] link12245:
mine is yellow but i'm more concerned about the flickering when on a flashlight app. warranty time if yours does the same.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
I think the yellowish tint is intentional to mute the buttons. My Fascinate buttons were bright white and really drew attention. I like the muted off white color.

edit: I mis-read the thread and posted about the led backlit buttons, not the LED flash... my bad. However, there are threads about the yellowish buttons!;)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] True2TheGame:
Yeah i prefer the yellow, i had the bright white on my nexus one and it always washed pictures out.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lvmike:
Yes my flash leds are yellow as well I think this is standard.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpoonerPS3:
I honestly like more the yellow tint than the insane white of other phones. Gives a more natural color to the shots.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olieebur:
Hmmm good to know this seems to be standard. I took some test pics and looked very odd to me. Maybe it was a combo of the off screen colors and yellow flash..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarretf:
My Atrix is yellow but my girlfriend's atrix is white... I will show pictures later if there is any interest...
[HD2 General] leffep:
Hi!

My HD2 have stopped to sound in speaker, the in-call sound are Ok. Only the music and ring signal is gone.

If the speaker are broken, can i repair it by my self?

Is´t difficult to open the HD2? Manual on the net?

Thanks for any help!
[HD2 General] xlr8me:
Q1. Yes you can repair it by yourself. Cost is very cheap too.. :) check on ebay for part.

Q2. Not difficult at all. Just follow the HTC guide on youtube on opening a HD2. You will need a blue plastic lever and Torque screwdriver.
[HD2 General] leffep:
Tnx for reply!

I read in another forum "bump the phone to a hard thing" and i started a mp3-song and try bumping.....

And YES the speaker started sounding !!! WOWWWW!

I just wonder: Are the speaker broken or only dirt in it? Will it stop again ?
[HD2 General] xlr8me:
Hard to say...

Just give it a few days and if it get worst or dies just repair it..

Good luck..
[HD2 General] martin.doktor:
Hi,

I repaired my phone by same way "bump the phone to a hard thing" and i started a mp3-song and try bumping.... :-)

What is your experience after a month? Is it still working?
[HD2 General] flutela:
wow, was searching long time how to fix this issue with my speaker. Tried to reflash ROM and radio many times but it didn't help at all.

But this "bumping fix" helped!! Thanks ;)
[HD2 General] Yes!:
Great! Your thread bumped my loudspeaker to live too!

I came along this thread while searching for instructions to revert my phone to stock so that i could send it for repair.

Thx! :cool:
[HD2 General] lucasseid:
Bought me a HD2 from Ebay, and i'm having some trouble with that also.

Tried this bump fix, but it didn't work for me.

How hard should i hit it, and where?

if it doesn't work, where can i get the speaker, that send it to Brazil? eBay?
[HD2 General] shiggins9:
Thanks!!!

I 2nd the bumping fix! I just wish I didn't hard reset my phone 5 minutes ago! But at least I know it's a speaker issue.:):):)
[HD2 General] maneshbt:
'Bump Fix' was a miracle for me. I just realised today that my speakers are not working after missed many calls as it was not ringing. I just played back some songs and made sure it was a speaker issue and found this thread.

But I was not sure if this was just a joke or how hard I must bump. I just banged it on my sofa and did not work. Then just shake bit hard and I noticed that I heard something ( a part of song). Finally I gave a good 'Tap' on the speaker and it worked. Here are my steps and hope some one will be helped.

1) Play any music file

2) Turn the backside of the phone

3) Spot the speaker (left to the camera)

4) Use your thumb and middle finger (or any fingers to make it as a Carom shot) and hit hard.

5) Its ok to hit hard as long as you use your fingers. But make sure you do not damage the camera.

6) After few (for me 2 shots) shots, you will get your speaker back.

This is a good try before you take any hasty nasty actions like un/reinstall programs/drivers/ROM or do physical repairs.

Cheers !!!
