I want to know how many more ppl are still after the NS back covers, whether its black or if a white version is available.

the last time i visit china i did get hold of the android edition case, this did cost me approximate USD 25, they only had two so i took both, they also had about 15 pieces of the normal version, to what i have seen and check. they are original, the price for them each were approximate USD 21, if i do bargin with them, i may be able to have the price down to about USD 18, the shop has been tight on price, even in china seacrhing through over 50 or so shops, not many shops stock them, even non branded ones are very limited.

my point is, ive been in this forum for many years, and help many ppl buy things from china and have also gave stuff away free of charge (gave 3 i9020 cases away), i can help ppl buy these covers, also you may need to add USD 2 to cover the cost of shipping material, shipping cost which includes register post.

my next time to china should be on the 28th april, stuff i'm looking for will be i9020 cases, battery covers black and white, the side pieces if available, and other stuff for my HTC mozart 7. all items i buy will be individually tested there and then, so will fit perfect if not 100%.

if anyone is interested please PM me before 27th april 23.59 PM hong kong time, anything afterwards , i will just ignore.

Did anyone ever find a supplier for the WHITE Nexus S battery door?
[Nexus S Accessories] Kurupt1:
Dam I still want a white one and don't really even know why. These darn smart phones..

Edit: I actually have a relative who travels to china/ japan frequently. Could you tell me where I should have him look?
[Nexus S Accessories] rotten.monkey:
My uk white sns back battery cover is hammered. I bought it 2nd hand. Can't find anywhere that sells replacement covers. Love the phone now its on miui but cosmetically it looks bob ba.

I bought a black origional off eBay but it doesnt fit. Silightly smaller which annoyed me. Didn't realise there was various sizes.
[Atrix 4G General] ItsaRaid:
I urgently need your valuable opinion. I spent several hours yesterday (Sunday) at a AT&T Retail Store with the Motorola Atrix. As you may know the phone display is a smidge under resolution to the IPhone 4- it lacked the "Punch" I thought the Display would or should have- is it because of Android 2.2? The dual core and Nvidia graphics accelerator should have given the Atrix a absolutely stunning display, it was “Just Ok” display, but nowhere near the retina display of Apple. I am resigned or guessing to think that this may be a Android software thing-

The Battery time appears good, I ran the Motorola “Flash Demo Site” about 9 times, ran Kobe Bryant’s “Nike Black Mamba” 5 min Trailer sever times was all over the web, Huge Multi Media Sites, and I didn’t ding the Battery at all, which was very surprising-

There is no question the Phone is very fast, actually at this point, I’ve never held a faster phone in my hand, we downloaded Extreme Labs Speed test, “Blink” it was done, actually initially I thought the download aborted- No such luck, Its fast-

So the Bottom line, The Display worries me. On the other Hand I'm hearing the Display on the Xoom is Gorgeous- but their running Gingerbread 3.0- I remember there was talk that Gingerbread required some very High Tech Hardware in place, Dual Core, Nividia ect- The Atrix is running Android 2.2-

Oops! I left one thing out-

The Sales rep told me the phone was “LTE Ready”, when I asked what do you mean, he smiled and said all that’s required is a Sim Card Change Out, He said Both the Inspire and the Atrix were that way. After I got home I called AT&T and spoke to a Supervisor in Technical Services, who confirmed that dialog. I am very surprised, as none of the reviews have said that. There has been great debates over 4G, and articles that say the Atrix is but isn’t 4G, and cannot work on LTE-

I have always valued your Forum opinions, and hope that you will take a moment to answer my email. Any comment you can give or overall opinion would be graciously received as always.
[Atrix 4G General] acPIZZA:
-You're right, the Atrix display is just a bit under the iP4... but it is also a larger display, in a package that is nearly the same size as the iP4. I think it is great. Some people coming from some of the samsung screens are complaining of its vibrancy or whatnot. I think it looks fine. People are saying it is more natural and less overly saturated. Also, from reading engadget - it looks like one of the galaxy phones just got a software update fixing colors... So what may be a slight (and probably un-recognizable to most people) nuance, may simply be corrected in an update. Motorola really did push this phone out the door and may have even rushed it. But from owning the device since launch, I can attest that there are no physical hardware issues to the device.

-The battery is absolutely huge. If you want the full android, syncing, viewing, browsing, calling, messaging, emailing, widget-updating, animations etc etc experience - this battery can deliver. Personally, I don't have every bell and whistle turned on in my phone - I am a little more conservative, but not entirely, and my battery last EASILY a day. I usually TRY to kill it at night in bed when my girlfriend goes to sleep (early) just to see if I can.

-Phone is fast, but motoblur is not desireable. Some people like it, some people don't. It's not the worst, but it's not like HTC's sense where you would actually prefer to keep the stock launcher. I experimented with ADW launcher first and I really liked it. However, as far as silky smooth, super consistent lag-free performance, Launcher Pro is where it's at. Many options and more smooth than ADW. I am 100% happy with my setup at this point - the phone never hiccups.

-As far as I know, the Atrix is NOT LTE ready. There is a lot of confusion over the jargon going around and what companies are calling "4G". Most likely, those reps were confusing HSPA+ with LTE. I am almost positive the Atrix is not LTE compatible.

*You mentioned the Xoom and Gingerbread. Honeycomb is apparently optimized to get the most out of the dual core power... This makes the Atrix more future-proof, as it already has the dual core and will eventually see HC.

*Also, although the bootloader has not been unlocked or whatever - the phone is very easily rootable - which enables freezing ('removal') of bloat apps, ability to install out of market apps, and tethering off-plan.

Hope that helps your decision. I had an Iphone 4 and sold it for a lot of money on Amazon. I had briefly dabbled with android (Evo 4G) briefly, but always ended up back to the newest iPhone... But with this device, the iPhone is not even a thought. I love android, and I love playing with, tweaking, improving and customizing my phone. It is much more fun if you are somewhat technically savvy. The iPhone is very safe, and is a great device, but if you are looking for something that lets you take the reigns a little more... get the atrix. the display is awesome, trust me. compare both screens from normal viewing distances... they are not THAT different. Sure, look up close and spot imperfections, but it's not that different.

[Atrix 4G General] ryanthered:
The Android OS has little to do with the resolution of the display. The Pentile matrix reduces the clarity and sharpness compared to the Retina display. The Atrix also has lower pixels per inch.

I'm pretty sure you need a different radio for LTE compatibility.
[Atrix 4G General] nabiladeeb:
I can confirm that the phone does not need a SIM change. I am using mine with the old SIM that I had on my desire. As, for LTE the phone does not have a LTE radio and is not LTE compatible.
[Atrix 4G General] eatkabab:
You definitely need a different radio for LTE.

-Display: The Galaxy S phones have the most beautiful displays IMO. iP4 is a very close second. Atrix is a somewhat close third. Compared to the Captivate, the atrix has severely muted colors (almost looks B/W next to the captivate's super saturated display but the atrix colors are actually more accurate). The biggest problem I see is the low bit depth (gradients look like crap). Pentile isn't desirable either. ------ ALL is made up for with the increased resolution. There hasn't yet been a single other android phone announced with an equal or higher resolution. We're safe for at least 6 months...bottom line, the display is good enough so that it's not of real concern unless you're doing some artsy stuff on your phone in which case, you want the iP4.

-this phone is INSAINELY FAST. Like I can't even explain what it's like on a day to day basis. a godsend. I don't have to wait for menus or programs to load (not even google voice!!!). I blindly know where all the buttons are for all context menus and I flick my thumb around and the menu has loaded before my thumb lands. It's truly incredible, a dream come true for a phone. I don't know if this is because of the tegra, ram, or file structure. whatever this pixie dust is, I don't think froyo could possibly run any faster and I don't really care for it to.

-the battery runs circles around every other android phone to date. easily twice my previous captivate.

-Moto is kinda sorta almost acceptable when it comes to updates...

-oh and holy crap the GPS actually works!! and its fast AND accurate?! O_o something samsung couldn't do even if they had access to DARPA's research.

bottom line, this is the best android phone by a long shot. A phone that has people leaving the iP4 for. Prying an apple boy away from apple is quite an impressive feat. Put your worries to rest. If you're on this forum and going to get a phone inside 5 months, this is your phone (or wait at least 6 months for the next wave of phones). It's absolutely not perfect, but its somewhat kinda in the same universe as perfection...

Oh yeah, there is no 4G, but thats not Moto's fault. Att's 3G has gotten impressively good lately. Probably due to the loss of a large chunk of apple users. Plenty fast for mobile/hot spot net as long as you're not trying to stream HD video.
[Atrix 4G General] TareX:
What about the fact it won't get GPU acceleration or Gtalk video chat during the May/June Android update? Doesn't that worry you?

What about the fact a Nexus S with a flashed kernel and ROM is reportedly faster than the Atrix?

What about the reports that it struggles with some GPU-intensive live wallpapers in a way the Nexus S and Captivate don't?
[Atrix 4G General] eatkabab:
That is all true, but I came from the captivate. Yes I whole heartedly admit that the capitvate was about twice as smooth, able to do some things better, but the atrix is twice as fast and has more 'space' on the screen.

Overall, its a much better phone and I doubt the captivate will get any love from samsung given their track record...moto has almost as bad of a record though.

The nexus S is great and probably the most 'time safe' phone since google is its support, but its not on the ATT network, as in, I'd have to pay retail. I got the atrix for free (in fact I kinda made $42 for getting it)

[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
I signed up for swype beta and installed it without any problems. Swype was working for 1 day then all of a sudden I got the "blue box of death" .. I can't seem to swype at all. I tried select/deselecting swype as input but no help.

This has happened twice. First time I reinstalled it and it worked. But I don't want to do this again and again.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] djspira:
Go to the swype beta forums... Easy way to fix is long press in the input field or search field until a box comes up that says input method. Change back to normal keyboard and then switch back to swype. voila fixed.

Anyway to replace Firefox with Chrome in webtop

would allow 'Chrome OS' technically, would be sweet
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kjbreil:
you can get a precompiled for arm Chromium build at http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/c/chromium-browser/

I will try installing it soon, check out other webtop threads for more information about installing and running other applications

edit: chromium-browser is installed by default - will not start though. I think moto wanted to use chrome and probably had it working but chrome does not work with google gears and having some sort of offline database is crucial to this type of environment.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redger725:
Can I flash a new ROM with 60 percent battery? I see where most ROM'S recommend flashing with a full battery. Does this affect anything like how much charge the phone thinks the battery has? Or are there other reasons to flash with a full battery?

Sent from my Captivate running Firefly 2.3
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goob1284:
It doesn't matter. I flashed at 5% once. The only thing you have to do is recalibrate your battery after.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjblack11:
Wouldn't it be a risk if your phone died somehow during odin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
That would be a big problem

I tend to always flash at 100%. Just to avoid any issues. But you can flash at 60% if you really wanted to. Just do a calibration
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcon10:
Do it with full battery . Calibrating takes ages

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soccer_Dad:
Trying to be a smart aleck, not confrontational...

If you are using odin, by definition the phone is plugged in to a USB power source. I suspect you couldn't drain the battery in that circumstance - maybe if you were plugged in, playing a video while serving up Mobile AP. But not when the screen is doing nothing but saying it's in download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I have flashed through cwm with under 50%
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwertyaas:
That's assuming every one uses odin ;)

I just clear data and cache and flash the new rom. But I charge up to 100% so the battery reads fine.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjblack11:
Yeah thats why I said "somehow". I thought about your point while posting though and it makes plenty of sense and im pretty sure you can charge a phone no matter what state it is in (soft brick, hard brick, waterlogged ha)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movielover76:
Yea

I've flashed in the range of 50 - 100%, never had a problem

like others said you just have to recalibrate your battery after.

I probably wouldn't go less than 50% though just to be safe.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hondo82:
It would probably be best to flash on a full battery, but I don't think its necessary. Just recalibrate and wipe battery stats and you should be fine.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Yes you can. May need to calibrate

Is anyone having this problem. I have an a70 250gb when I push the power button it stays lit even in deep sleep. My battery drains completely overnight. I don't want to power off when not using for short periods of time.
[Gen8 General] -NRG-:
I had the same bug as well with my 25ogb, but for some reason after a full reset it seems to be gone...

I thought at fist a program might have caused it, but i've reinstalled the same apps and i don't have this problem anymore..
[Gen8 General] rhtizzy:
I too recently developed this problem where the LED light stays on and keeps using power when in standby. I thought it might be some app I'd installed but thought it might sort itself out so after a week without improvement, I did a Reset, without result (except for losing another 32MB to the Swapfile). So then did a Reinitialise, also without result. To be clear, I didn't install any apps and still the thing won't go to sleep anymore. Any idea's?
[Gen8 General] Zoidpilot:
Well looks like we're at a loss... I got the same bug on my a101. Battery drain isn't too serious though, but still it just boggles the mind.
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
I have the same problem and it happened around the same time my USB port died.

I've been waiting until the shop where I bought it has stock again to return it for repair/replacement. I think this is related to the USB dying.
[Gen8 General] enteo:
It's happening the same with my 101. The led stays on when it goes to sleep, even after stopping all the processes using the Archos OS Monitor tool.

After a reboot seems to work OK; the led turns off in standby mode after five seconds more or less.

I haven't used deep sleep yet.

Maybe some application is causing this?

I installed only a few apps and firmware is v2.1.08:

- Aldiko

- Angry Birds (of course)

- DroidWall

- ES File Explorer

- Google AppsWidgetsoid

- SiMi Folder

- Zuma's Revenge
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
Have you checked the right tab "Wake locks" in the Archos OS Monitor?
[Gen8 General] enteo:
Yes, I did change to this tab once and the list was empty. It appeared and disappeared a process very fast, so fast that I couldn't read the complete name :)

Good hint!
[Gen8 General] CarsnGadgets:
I get this sometimes on my 101, but a reboot seems to sort it out, Its got to be a process or app running in the background I think.
[Gen8 General] rhtizzy:
The best answer on the ArchosFans forum was :

I verified this and my USB port was indeed not responding, so I've swapped it at the store and the new unit is wicked :)
[Gen8 General] teddybearjr69:
Re: Power Button Staying Lit (Possible Fix)

Ok here's what I did after checking that the USB port was not the issue(worked fine with a usb flash drive). Check the following location

Go to: Settings-->Location & Security-->Use Wireless Networks

Description lists it as "See location in applications(such as Maps) using wireless networks)

If it is enabled, disable it. I turned it off, went pack to my home screen Soft press the Power Button for Standby Mode and the power LED is off within a few seconds.

Worked for me, Hope it works for you
[Gen8 General] hugsrwarmy:
Yeah, I have the USB host problem too, and it does seem like that is the cause. Argh, I don't want to go a week without my A70. D:
[Gen8 General] hugsrwarmy:
Confirmed. Hell, didn't know that would work O_O.

Thanks!
[Gen8 General] pbarrett:
No luck for me - it was already off, and toggling it on then off didn't help, even after a reboot.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuri1:
Hi,

I have in my hand a DHD from virgin telecom.

Now, in belgium we have three providers: Base, Mobistar, Proximus, Mobistar and Proximus I can register on there network but I can not register to base network!

that means I need to unlock. First and foremost I have to root release by s-off, then engs-off I did that

my CID is now 11 ......,

that means that my DHD is unlocked but I still get no network.

I already did downgrade from 1.75 to 1.32 with goldcard,

En then i have change the buildversion to 26.04.03.17_m2

Actualy, i do everything correct but why cant i register to base network? It is very strange. Must i try another rom version

Forexample revulution hd or something? But i see not a piont!

Or must i pay for a unlock code? En how works that system can they really unlocked from the air? If they so, than must them hacking the system in dublin eho they check the imei numbers..

Have somebody any suggestion to my problem, otherwise i gona sell them :(((
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] braveBuddy:
try installing some other rom and try putting in a different sim card than what you currently have.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuri1:
ok, i'm know trying to install the revulution hd 2.1 rom now.

1/ according to the guide i must download the full wipe and then the 1.3 upgrade Wipe 1.3 for the safety of the device

2/ I need put these two files (.zip file) in the sd card with the rom file.

3/ then should I be sure if I'm released by the root in the Terminal Emulator Android

typing SU, As a result I've gotten #.

so far I have everything correct according to the guide.

4/The next step should be in the rom manager, I need the flash clockworkmod

and then rebooting which means boot in the clockworkmod.

but when I reboot I got that stupid htc logo. I tried that part again the same old sh*t again and again i'im every time stuck in that logo!! what am I doing wrong?

thx
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Are you sure the problem isn't the SIM card and not the handset?

In the UK I use Orange and no matter what I do to the phone it won't let me use Vodafone. That's because its an Orange SIM card.

As for your current problem.

Take out the battery and boot the phone normally.

Within ROM Manager you need to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery 2.x.x.x not 3.x.x.x you may need to do this twice as some users experience problems with flashing it once. Ensure you accept any Superuser requests.

Now, with the ROM & Full Wipe .zips on your SD Card boot into Recovery, either from ROM Manager or by turning off and starting holding volume down. Select Recovery using the volume keys and press power to enter. Make sure HTC FastBoot is unchecked first (Settings > Applications > FastBoot)

Now once in Recovery highlight "install zip from sdcard", press power, highlight "choose zip from sdcard", press power, highlight "Full Wipe 1.3.zip", press power, highlight "Yes - Install Full Wipe 1.3.zip", press power.

Now repeat this process for the ROM you downloaded and wish to install. Once complete highlight "reboot system now". Done.

Sorry if this teaching you to suck eggs, that's not my intention.
