My wife owns the Xoom now. She was very impressed by it and was excited to get it. I want a better screen but if no good contenders present themselves, I may pick up the Wifi only version.

I like it a lot more since she owns it and not me.
[Xoom General] freemsk1:
Wish I could trade my wife to a girlfriend so my xoom will not be interfering my personal life :)

Hehe, my wife already hates my phone, wonder how much more she'll hate the Xoom when I get it.

[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
The Xoom should come with a Surgeon General's Warning: "Using the Xoom will incur constant bickering from your wife."
[Xoom General] dougvan:
Got the Xoom under the condition she could have my Galaxy Tab.

I too was banned from bringing it to bed until I bought the dock and turned it into my alarm clock ;)
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Mine does just the same. Well we don't fight over it because we take turn. when I play game shes using the xoom. When im using it. She would be watching tv. But still my xoom goes with me everywhere I go and she thinks I take care of it more than her. We only had 2 conflict so far. I put my gmail account on the xoom cuz I have many already paid apps so every time she uses she complains about her account not being on there. Second, she makes me wait for the xoom to fully charged and unplug it! And it's always at night about time for me to sleep.
[Xoom General] dubsjw27:
Did that...she was disappointed that she couldn't get her magazines on the nook app that she returned it and bought the nook instead.

Win win in my book.
[Xoom General] despich:
Funny.. Reminds of the early days when Microsoft would release a floppy that had most of the popular website loaded on it for use without an internet connection.

My wife hates my xoom as well, Jelously is not pretty.. My 4 year old son though on the other hand is willing to eat vegetables in order to use it.

Xoom does not have vibrate notification option which is probably why they don't want anyone bringing it to bed. :)
[Xoom General] angermeans:
My fiance says the same thing I saw on some forum somewhere that one kid stated that his wife spit on his Xoom because he wasn't paying any attention to her lol.
[Xoom General] angermeans:
Lol all I hear is,

Her, "turn down the brigtness"

Me, "I already did, twice"

Her, "if your going to sit on your Xoom all night your banned from bringing it to bed"

Me, "just one more minute and i will put it down"

[24 hours later]

Her, "turn down the damn brightness, I have work tomorrow"

Me, "I did....."

And so on for the past two weeks
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
Was the other way around for me. She bought me a Nook Color for Xmas and used it herself until I discovered this site and rooted it :D Then I got excited about the Xoom and told her to use the pimped up NC instead of her tiny iPhone... Will teach her the way of the Nook this weekend ;) At least she accepted the Xoom as newest family member.
[Xoom General] Ryououki:
Thankfully my wife embraces technology (Not as much as I do, but she enjoys it still). She plays with her EVO or Nook, and I play with my Xoom or EVO, depending on what I'm doing. We ordered her a Viewsonic G-Tablet which should be here tomorrow.
[Xoom General] gigglebox:
I've gotten some success by angling the screen slightly away from her side of the bed. It seems to make a real difference.

Failing that, sometimes you just have to duck under the covers, old-school style

Hey everyone,

Long time form creep here. Ive been running CM7 for awhile now and wanted to do a fresh start and only put what i need back on my 8Gb C2 SD card. And I have been trying to get my Apps 2 SD partition running again with ROM Manager. So far I have tried 512 EXT4 and 256 swap, all it does is reboot into recovery and sends me to the yellow triangle recovery. Ive never had a problem before, so i kinda stuck in a hole.

Thanks to all of the devs for such a great ROM
[HTC Inspire 4G] gallogj:
Help! I installed Android Rev 3.0 with no problems at all...worked great! Today I noticed Android Rev 4.0. I saw in the instructions that you needed to WIPE to install. Being a noob, I thought that meant that you had to format the sd card...which I did using rom manager. Then in rom manager I went to install the new Android Rev 4.0 off of my newly formatted sd card...and i've been stuck in a HBOOT loop ever since. I can't even get the phone to be recognized by my computer to try to flash RUU. I do have S-off. I do have the clockworkmod backup recovery.img, system.img and boot.img...but I can't get past this HBOOT loop. I tried everything to get into recovery...but nothing works...even tried system restore...nothing. I think the sd card might have lost its goldcard status because it no longer says "goldcard". Could that be the problem? Any suggestions? I need help before my 30 day return status is gone!

When the phone starts...it goes into fastboot...then goes to HBOOT...then runs the PD98IMG...updates....goes back to HBOOT screen. When I select recovery...it shows the HTC logo...fades to black...then nothing. No button pressing in the world gets it out of that black screen. I take the battery out...put it back in...and back to the fastboot screen I go. I'm going to try the new updated PD98IMG file mentioned...fingers crossed! I wonder if it would be as simple as getting a SD card file dump from someone who just installed AR 3.0 and putting the same files on my card? I dunno...gonna try the PD98IMG again first!

Is there a way to send pictures through MMS without having the phone compress the picture so much? When the person that I send the picture to, views the pic on their large screen phone, the picture looks pixelated. Can someone help? Any way to edit something on a rooted inspire 4g?
[HTC Inspire 4G] r_3:
you can always email it at full size.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Email it to a phone number? Is there a better way? Or edit something within the system files to compress it less?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dondula:
I would download handcent from the market and use that instead of the stock SMS app. It is fantastic and you are able to send MMS's up to 600k but I would limit it to no more than 300k for compatability. Also make sure if you do install it, disable the notifications on the stock app, or you will get dual alerts.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Thank you, will give it a shot. Does handcent offer LED notifications like the stock one did?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dondula:
Sure does, it has a ton customizations.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
You can also try GoSMS. Between the two, I like GoSMS better.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blackviper71:
The stock messaging app already allows 600kb sizes. It still compresses too much. I agree that email may be the more viable option when quality pics matter.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Thanks guys. Will try both and see which one I like better.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
Handcent will actually allow up to 1.2mb MMS (it also has a 2mb and 5mb option as well, but they says (EVO Only), I've never tried them)
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Yes, i see that option to select size limit in both GoSMS and handcent. I've tried both and like GoSMS better. I don't care if the image isn't full resolution. I just want it to be less pixellated when the person receives it. I think these third party apps work perfect for situations like this. Thanks for all the help guys.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kschang:
CIO Magazine just published an article that has six tips on Android security. It's okay in general, but what's with #3: NEVER Root your Android phone?

http://www.cio.com/article/675129/A...tect_Your_Google_Phone?page=2&taxonomyId=3061

The author, Al Sacco, claims that

"

Unless you're a developer or someone who is very familiar with Android and you're simply willing to take your chances, you should NOT root your Android device. Ever. Not rooting might mean limited access to some cool, custom applications and services, and you won't be able to download apps from many unofficial third-party app stores. However, avoiding a root does vastly increase security, because in large part applications can't gain system-level access without a root."
​

Excuse me, but isn't that exact what DroidDream does: gain system level access without root pre-existing root?

Which brings up a question for the Android experts...

What *does* Droiddream do on a system that's ALREADY rooted? Will it bring up Superuser? Can DroidDream or similar hack somehow BYPASS Superuser allow/deny?

I'm thinking the "doubleshot" that was rumored the other day is going to be a new mytouch. maybe a mytouch slide since the first was espresso..think "I'll have a double shot of espresso" Some say the doubleshot is going to have dual screens.. others think it's because it's dual processor. I read also that the doubleshot is the pyramid just renamed... I kinda think though it will be the next mytouch slide.

yeah but now I have noticed those ads are now pushing the Samsung 4g. Before it came out they had the commercials stating the mt4g was the fastest phone.. now they pretty much have those same commercials but for the Samsung 4g.. in the marketing scheme of things the peak of the mt4g marketing is over.. now we will see tmo pushing the samsung more and possibly the gslate
[myTouch 4G General] XDA-WTF:
Far as this topic goes they won't call it new myTouch as normally myTouch is heavily TMobile branded device. If you know about project Emerald you would understand what I am talking about and where they are coming from. This is just for them to upgrade the base by mass for long term usage on hardware/software platform. When you have device that is heavily depends on the brand it sticks for sometime. Will TMo have new device? Sure they will will HTC be still top dominate? Sure they will be but they won't be TMobile branded directly.

Well thats just another failed attempt to push the SAME device with minor hardware update, gatta love SamSUX they do things that no one else can lol I mean take a look at the whole 4G fiasco. Galaxy S and Vibrant you add 4G powwww new device lol.

[myTouch 4G General] AJ26T:

I do believe that the double shot will be the new mytouch but in slider form. 1st was Mytouch, then Mytouch Slide, then MT4G, So it seems like every 6 months or so there will be a new mytouch, keyboard and non keyboard version.

Just my thoughts,
[myTouch 4G General] carmeng4evr:
I actually like the design of the Mytouch

it doesn't look like any other phone on the market right now that i can think of

i am hoping that it might not be a slider form because that doesn't sound like something major to really announce.

Hopefully it is something better. And is it sure that the pyramid is an Android device? Is there any chance it could be a Windows device or is it confirmed to be Android?
[myTouch 4G General] kgbkny:
@carmen:

At this point, only rumors exist about the Pyramid. One of those rumors is that it will be running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). The phone is expected to be publicly announced at this year's CTIA, scheduled to take place in about a week.

While I like the design of MT4G (I like it, but don't LOVE it), it lacks the upscale/professional form factor of the Evo/Thunderbolt/Inspire 4G/Desire HD. If the Pyramid will have that form factor, I am a first day buyer.

What's a good app to sync photos automatically via wifi to my computer, and vice versa?

[Xoom General] IndivisibleP:
I know I know, "CDMA is not for international use" etc, etc. I am aware.

Still, although it isnt probable - it is not necessarily imposible! And thats what I am banking on :rolleyes:

Long story short, I need to travel soon and I dropped my xoom the morning I was going to return it (no need to remind how stupid that was, i havent forgotten yet...) Anyway everything is fine with the tablet except the aluminum body got two minor marks on the edge. Now best buy wont accept it back.

I love everything about the tablet except that I wont be able to get mobile data overseas. The country I am going to has CDMA networks but how can i get verizon to release me from their clutches? I didnt register a data plan with Vz but as i understand I am still at their disposal in terms of wireless service. Anyone have any experience getting any CDMA device unlocked (particularly with Vz)? Can you point me in any direction?

I am willing to do it "legally" through them (if they will even allow it), or through a hack, or any other method. Just let me know whats possible.

I wasnt sure about my travel plans and my Grandmother had been asking to get me gift - end result is I have a perfectly good Xoom I cant return and cant use overseas. :mad:

(Just for the record I HATE THE IDEA OF BUYING A DEVICE LOCKED TO A PARTICULAR COMPANY. I never bought a CDMA device for this reason, first time I did and it bit me in the @$$ immediately)
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
It isn't that it's locked to a company, it's to a technology. Europe uses a different standard. It's like trying to plug a US power socket into a European power socket, it ain't gonna happen! There aren't any "converters" for this. You would be better off getting a mobile hotspot once you're there and connecting via WiFi.

If it was with at&t or tmobile it would be a different story, though I'm not sure the data would work on 3g, it would be 1g (I think).
[Xoom General] IndivisibleP:
Thats true, i didnt think about a mobile hotspot. Although I had remembered that I can tether to my cell phone (then I entirely forgot again in the frustration of not being able to return the Xoom :o )

Anyway I am aware that GSM and CDMA are different standards, but the country I am going to has at least two CDMA carriers that I am aware of. Admittedly I dont know much about CDMA networks but I know my friend had a phone from Sprint that he was able to use overseas after they permitted it.

I still got my fingers crossed...
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Phones typically have an unlock code that enables you to use them on other networks. It works for att and tmobile since you don't have to activate the device (just swap sim cards) but getting Verizon to activate a sprint device is nearly impossible.

That said, I don't even know if the Xoom is completely locked to Verizon in the same way. The issue will be provisioning the device for another network with cdma. Either way it's probably not worth the effort.
[Xoom General] Daxten:
The radio is a plug and play Module, if you get your hands on the right one and flash the right ROM, could work, but first thing first .. wait for the release

Sorry for being such a layman and a noob but what exactly are you referring to the release of? :o

I feel kind of bad having to do all this ranting and not knowing entirely what I am talking about, so I hope you'll excuse me.
[Xoom General] hawk2k8:
Technology, you can use xoom and connect cdma EvDO network outsea.

You need change ESN、IMSI、AKEY、SID、NID to register xoom on the other CDMA network and make phone call. You also need change AN、AAA to using EvDO service then you can get 3G network link。

The most difficult thing you need to do is getting the AKEY and AAA，which is controled by service provider that you want to connect.

To write ESN、IMSI、AKEY、SID、NID、AN、AAA， you also need some CDMA crack tools，such as CDMA Workshop、QXDM、QMAT etc.

when you google for "AKEY AAA"， you will get more technical detail.
[Xoom General] knut150:
That’s all correct.

I had the same experience with a CDMA device in Germany. That is another reason that I am waiting for the GMS version of the xoom.
