[HTC Inspire 4G] crypted:
I'm switching over from an HTC Pure (win mob 6.5). I've been watching Android and am dying to get going with it. But before making the plunge, I'm curious on the phone.

1) If HTC does not provide Android 2.4 upgrades or beyond, will the custom ROMs offering 2.4 allow the Google Marketplace to work? I ask this because the HTC Pure Android ROM doesn't offer Marketplace because of incompatibilities with a non-Android phone.

2) Will Skype work on it? I've been holding out for an HTC with a front-facing camera to do video Skype like iPhone offeres. But, that doesn't seem to ever be an option for HTC users... always a back-side camera only deal.

3) I know the Netflix isn't available for Android yet. But, does anyone have input on this CPU being on the supported list for the Netflix app that does come out?

First of all the pure sucked so this is godsend compared to the pure. Just get and see for yourself.
[HTC Inspire 4G] crypted:
I agree that the Pure is crap. But, what about the proposed questions above? I'm wanting to go in knowing what I'll be capable...
[HTC Inspire 4G] djspira:
Sure um well lets see...

1. Absolutely however 2.4 is a ways off and 2.3 has yet to be officially released for inspire (summer i think). In other words don't worry about it unless you intend on rooting and flashing but as far as I know most if not all roms support marketplace.

2. Skype app should work but you kind of answered your own question. Why would you attempt to video conference on a phone without a front facing camera? I had iphone 4 and hardly used facial time, it was more like "cool i can see you" and um you look exactly the same as I saw you last.

3. Yes as far as I know all snapdragon processors should be supported.

Like I said before this phone is worlds better than the pure (I had one). If you just want a phone for pure (no pun intended) functionality then get an iphone 4. But if you want a phone you can hack and customize, with tons of potential and great specs then definitely get the inspire. I hope that helps
[HTC Inspire 4G] RogerPodacter:
all custom ROMs still support the marketplace with no issues. so you have nothing to worry about.

[Atrix 4G General] auric_goldfinger:
What is the simplest and cheapest way to tether (via USB) undetected with the Atrix?

I’m strongly considering getting the Atrix as my first Android phone and don’t want to root at this point (as I’m new to this). I currently have a WM 6 device which I use to tether undetected on occasion while traveling. I prefer a free option since I don't tether very often. I would simply like to ensure that I can still tether undetected with the Atrix before I buy. Is this possible?

I just got home from Best Buy where I played with their Xoom for about 20 minutes. Anytime I tried to use the keyboard (in the browser or just doing the google search on the home page), the keyboard only registered like 1/5 keystrokes I made. The line "just testing out this new xoom" would come out as "j tesgo t ewom" or something like that. I watched as I was typing and it looked like the keys were lighting up. Is this just a bad display unit or does the keyboard really suck this bad?
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Let me put it this way, I am typing this on my xoom almost as fast as I can type on a computer. It does get laggy in the browser on more complex sites, but it shouldn't lead to that much mispelling. The keyboard is at least as good as the ipad in terms of speed.
[Xoom General] TheSonicEmerald:
Best Buy has some crappy units on display for some reason. ANGRY BIRDS lagged when I used the one at Best Buy.

[Xoom General] ZBoater:
i find the keyboard quite laggy. I am typing this post in the quick reply box and am running about 1-2 keystrokes behind. And this is with stock or Thumb keyboard.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
The xda forum makes the browser lag like crazy, probably because of all the elements that are on the page at once. Use the xda app instead.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Not sure, but as far as my personal experience goes, every single floor unit of any device I've tried is always slower than the real thing. With the amount of abuse that the devices get, and in the case of Android the people messing with things that they don't know the reason for make everything laggy.

I remember using the Galaxy Tab at a T-mobile kiosk and having it run pretty smooth, then trying one in a Sprint store than absolutely lagged out and crashed several times. It really depends what people have been doing to them.
[Xoom General] kcrudup:
Let me also +1 the Xoom soft-keyboard- between the responsiveness and accuracy of the touchscreen, the size of the keys, and the medium autocorrect setting, what used to be a chore typing on soft keyboards has now made sending E-mails FAR easier (which my client certainly appreciates, as now I respond to E-mails coming thru in late at night or early AM much faster :)).
[Xoom General] androd:
I found that when I went to bestbuy the display unit was terrible because everyone installed apps and put a ton of widgets on the desktop. When I actually got my own xoom it was perfect and never had any issue browsing or using the keyboard. So I guess the point I am trying to make is that its more what people put on it then the unit itself and when you have tons of people messing with it a lot of things get screwed up.
[Xoom General] schnoz:
The unit at the best buy I was at didn't have a google account tied to the device. You couldn't use the market, gmail or any google application. So nobody put extra apps or widgets on there. Maybe they messed with the settings? All I know is the keyboard was horrible. It would enter a couple letters, miss a couple letters. Half way through typing something it would auto-close the keyboard. Something must have been messed up, I guess. Otherwise I assume everybody would be complaining, which they aren't. I just wish I could have tested the device with the keyboard working correctly so I knew what to actual expect since I'm still on the fence between this and the ipad 2.
[Xoom General] verusevo:
Sorry but its not the store unit's fault. This is something ive noticed and subsequently been annoyed with using my Xoom. Usually its while im using the keyboard in the browser window. It just cant keep up and misses keystrokes. It wouldnt be so bad if the keystrokes were just behind, but it lags enough where it doesnt even register some keystrokes. but like i said this is mainly in the browser. Plus for the person who mention Angry birds, i noticed this myself. Which is something thats alway bothered me about Non-Apple(dont shoot me im not a fanboy) hardware/software. If there was one thing i never experienced on my iphone/ipad it was subsequent slowdown while using apps and such. Everything was as quick the first time as it was the last time. Slowdown to me is a major nusiance becuase it seems to happen in intervals as apposed to consistantly. i hate that. Sometimes AB is smooth as silk other times its choppy, but i never know why or when.
[Xoom General] keitht:
I have noticed the lag too. Not on all sites but some especially XDA.I have seen many others complain about the same thing in other posts. Obviously an issue that needs to be corrected by Google in an update.

I have yet to see any lag playing Angry Birds.
[Xoom General] androd:
Interesting since the unit I messed with had a ton of stuff. The only time I have noticed some keyboard lag occasionally was in the web browser when on some intensive websites but other than that seems to be fine. As a note you could try out a different keyboard on it if they actually have a Google account such as swift key and see if that helps. Also id see if you can go to another store such as Verizon and test it out there since normally it works well without lag for me.
[Xoom General] ChongoDroid:
That is very strange, I played with my new xoom and it was quick on all apps except for SBM but it makes sense since its not optimized yet but as far as browser and keyboard I haven't experienced any lag yet. Side note Google body was very underwhelming.... more for children then Med students or anything past high school.
[Xoom General] xlGmanlx:
I get no lag but I use voice to text a lot and that works great
[Xoom General] nitewalker033:
I thought that I was the only one that noticed a little lag on the keyboard..... nothing I can't handle or that stopped me from buying the Xoom
[Xoom General] Ballzdeeep:
My problems with the keyboard are how it freezes up during a keystroke and the only way to stop it is to turn the Xoom all the way off. It can be a bit laggy, but it seems to depend more on the app being used vs the keyboard its self.
[Xoom General] androd:
Ya it probably depends on if the app is optimized yet for honeycomb so the keyboard lag issue should be fixed when everything becomes more compatible.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheepdog elite:
Don't flash things in rom manager for the fascinate. There are tons of problems that could use addressing. For now your best bet is to stick to CWM and Odin for your needs.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Jackal:
Why would you part this on the dev forums? This isn't related to the development you are along a question.

To answer your question the newer cwm recovery was ment to be installed via recovery menu or odin.

If you read the post in the dev forums you would now that jt recommend not using recovery manager on froyo.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
You can test your card's real capacity with a utility like h2test, which will write files until it's full and then verify them. Though you've basically already verified it...if it consistently stops writing files at a certain capacity, that's probably the true capacity of the card. As others have said, if you bought it from ebay, it's common.

Just went through this with a Wintec card bought from Fry's. Here's what will happen with your card, too:

while (patience == good)
{
Card will spontaneously corrupt data;
Reformat card;
Restore data from back (you do have a backup, right?);
}
beat card into powder with a ball-peen hammer;

I spent $119 for my card and this happened. Return it if you can.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
I used to get corrupted stuff too. What I did that stopped it for me was put a thick piece of paper on top of the card and into the slot. When the battery was on top of the card, out would keep it from moving. I suspected the card and phone contacts weren't staying firmly set. If a write cycle happened when the connection was intermittent, corrupt files and or file allocation table.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
Is the microSD card in the Evo when you transfer all that stuff to it? If so, it might be worth a shot to take it out and just use a standalone card reader or USB adapter to hook it up to your computer and then transfer that way. No idea if it would make a difference, but just another thing you can try.

Howdy! I like the reference sticky with all the quick links for everything for rooting one-click fixes, etc. Definitely a great reference point!

However, the ROM list is a bit out of date --- I don't have the time to test things and compile a list, but is there anyone that basically has a list summary with links to the threads of the "most stable" builds for folks at this point in time?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HKSpeed:
Which link from the first post should I use to flash roms on my SGS4G that I rooted a year ago using Super One Click? At the time there weren't any stable roms available so I kept the stock Gingerbread rom. I don't think Super One Click installed CWM (the laptop I used to root my phone is long gone). I prefer to put TWRP on my phone since I have good experience with it on my Kindle Fire, Touchpad, and Nexus 7. I saw this thread, but it appears to require a custom rom already installed.

When I reboot to recovery using Goo Manager an "Android system recovery <3e> Samsung Recovery Utils" menu appears with options to: reboot, apply update from sdcard, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition. Goo Manager says nothing is available when I use the install open recovery action.

Btw, what happened to super one click? I don't see anything about it anymore. Thanks.

I rooted my G2 about 2 weeks ago with Virtuous ROM and, the other day I picked the phone up to go to work not thinking anything was wrong.

When I got to work, I had an X where the signal bars are. Tried to turning phone off and, nothing.

When I go in and search for the carriers it shows T-Mobile and AT&T listed then I tap the T-Mobile section and it tells me "Your SIM Card doesn't allow connection to this Network"....So we called T-Mobile and switched SIM Cards and still get the same thing.

My SIM works in every other phone we have, including our myTouch4g...I have un-rooted and, same result. Then rooted again and, it still acts the same way..

T-Mobile said it was something with their network and, could take 3 days to get it straightened out.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iggybug:
I am a happy EB13/Bonsai 3.0.0 user, with one exception:

Wallpapers selected from my SD card through QuickPic are narrow/static, and not the side-scrolling 960x800 pixel size that I've come to like.

The stock Sprint wallpapers selected through the stock wallpaper control remain wide & scrolling.

Is this a QuickPic issue, a Bonsai issue, or something else altogether? Are static wallpapers a setting that is burnt into the Bonsai rom somewhere, that I'm just going to have to get used to?

How would this work for a kludgy workaround:

1. Locate the Sprint wallpapers on the phone; and,

2. Dump my lovingly-prepared 960x800 wallpapers in that directory via a root shell?

<I'd have posted this question in the Bonsai thread in the Dev forum, but I don't have the requisite 10 posts yet.>
