[Nook Color General] nicko1968:
My NC is at 1.01 so I upgraded it to 1.1 and did the install. But I puled the SD card out too soon because I didn't think anything was happening and it wasn't working right. So I did a factory reset by doing the 8 restarts, etc.

Then I forgot to upgrade to 1.1 again before running Autonooter for 1.1, and now my device draws the Android symbol, then repeats, in a loop. I can't do the 8 reboots any more, it doesn't seem to turn off. Am I screwed? Any help would be much appreciated.

Edit: Nevermind! Looks like I was able to restart 8 times after all. I thought since the screen didn't turn off 8 times in a row that the counter wasn't incrementing, but it must have been because eventually I got it to restore. So happy!

Now I will try again when I'm not tired and upset. :)

No worries. That's a pretty common mistake. I was concerned my autonooter failed when my screen was black but all turned out ok. At least you had the common sense to restore with reboots. Learn by doing.
[Fascinate General] bwheelies:
I was on IRC a couple of nights ago asking a simple question about battery stats when I get the bull**** answer from one of the community's finest.

Thanks to the other IRC member who was able to give a reasonable and respectable answer. I think it was Micellis.

Anyway, the whole battery situation on my phone has been like this: I flash whatever rom tickled my fancy and as long as things worked with a minimum of fuss and gave good battery life I would keep it on.

In the search for the good battery life I have flashed just about everything that was pretty much fully operational(still waiting for that Death Star build...) and came across only one that gave decent life. Superclean 2.6Voodoo.

For the sake of experimentation I proceeded on to 2.7.1V and 2.8V as well as DR1V and now DR2V. Since SC2.6V I have went back to bad battery life and I started checking Spare Parts for battery stats and noticed that my phone would flatline and 3,500ish mV. Apparently the phone should be kicking the bucket when it is around 3,000mV.

Now with DR2V I am back to what I feel is normal and the only thing I have done is do a full charge and run the bstats zip from Adrynalyn and the thing is using the battery in a much more miserly manner.

It still isn't accurately reporting yet as I am at 3,823mV at 56% after 4h:45m but under normal circumstances the battery would be at 25% right now and hit rock bottom come 3,500mV. The battery life is at a stand still when the screen is off and nothing being used which is an amazing thing to witness as it usually drops 10% an hour or more.

My hope is that after a few full charges and discharges the phone will start using what available battery is there and really kick up the mpg's.
[Fascinate General] soba49:
For what it is worth, my battery is currently at 3595 mv at 3% remaining. It is at 36 hours of use including 4.5 hours of display on. I am running 2.1 DL09 though with no voodoo and no UV.

At least for me, it turns out that 3500ish mv is a perfectly acceptable reading for ending a decent day of battery life, so perhaps it is being misreported or there is more to the equation.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VenezuelaDan:
Solution

It did end up being my registry settings. Went to another computer, installed the Developer Tools, ran ChevronWP7, and voila. Still dont know my problem though, and with the new NoDo update I know I'll have to reset again eventually, so if anyone can shed any light that would be great.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heathcliff74:
I'd say, uninstall the samsung drivers, remove what's left of these registry keys, install the drivers again and connect your device to recreate the registry keys.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VenezuelaDan:
I've already uninstalled the Samsung drivers, and I'll try deleting those registry keys. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the Windows Phone Deeloper Tools, didn't do very much. Can access just fine through Zune, but any xap deployer (including Microsoft's) and the ChevronWP7 can't.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VenezuelaDan:
I deleted the registry key (or rather what I could, some of them were system protected and wouldn't budge when I edited permissions), then uninstalled zune and reinstalled it. I plugged my phone in and everything synced just fine. Tried Chevron, it started and detected my phone was jailbroken. I was also able to deploy xaps. Thanks for the suggestion, saved me from a lot of frustration.

I have the same problem as above; Unlocked my Focus, it got re-locked somehow and now I can't re-unlock it, after trying everything. Should I do what OP ended up doing? If so, how do I do that?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w0rd-driven:
I've had a somewhat related issue where something in my PC's registry or user profile was screwing Zune up. I'd get a generic "Please disconnect, restart your phone, and pray" response that never worked. The fix? Recreate my user profile in Windows which has a net effect of giving you all new HKEY_CURRENT_USER stuff. This may be necessary for others in the future, specifically when one computer works differently than another.

[EVO Shift 4G General] john410312:
I've search but to no avail. My bluetooth volume on my Evo Shift is very low. My Moment and other phones were/are loud enough and I'm not using cheap headsets. I use my phone for work and I have a lot of ambient noise that is unavoidable.

Low Volume Hack (apparently) doesn't work, nor does Volume Boost.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thx
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
Suggestions? Not really. Observations and confirming your problem, yes. Myself having many phones and bt headsets, I have noticed that one that may be loud on one model phone is not necessarily loud on a different one. Sometimes the motorola h790 is so loud on one phone that I cannot turn it down enough. That headset on another phone is quite quiet. I don't know why it is but it is.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
None if the current volume hacks will work on these phones with a stock rom at least. The files that they modify are not present, as apparently it uses a different way to control sound output and equalization
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daehenoc:
Hi,

I got a Samsung Galaxy S here in Australia, rooted it and upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 :) I know that GPS worked just fine with 2.1, I was able to walk home and see my position updating very nicely on Google maps :)

Since updating to 2.2, GPS hasn't worked at all. When I turn it on, and start an application that uses GPS (Navigation, Maps, etc), the GPS icon sits there and flashes back and forth between those two types of icons and I don't get anything on the maps which shows me where I am. I haven't chased this up since upgrading, but it's starting to bug me now :)

After searching these forums for 'gps not working', I've pulled down the 'GPS test' application and I don't know for sure, but it appears to find one satellite:

PRN SNR Elev Azim Flags

2 11.0 74.0 150.0

But the GPS icon just sits there flashing back and forth.

I may have missed something since upgrading, do I need to do something to the phone to get my GPS working again?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daehenoc:
OK, I seem to have fixed the problem :) I turned on "Use wireless networks" and voila! I now have successful GPS lock and position in my maps :)

I would have thought that you could use GPS without having "Use wireless networks" turned on!?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PAGOT:
Wouldn't call it a successful GPS lock. Since you got it with the mobile networks. (in my case when I use it :P . the accuracy in my village is about 1000-1500m since the BTS is that much far from me :D)

So if you get into an area with weak mobile networks, wont help you much :) .

Wouldnt call this as resolved with "BAD GPS" cuz your GPS still sucks as before (and doesnt work :P, you just found a workaround that was there also before :D, 2.2.1 has even some other function for GPS that tries to fix it (or help?) :) )

But since you can use it now, its ok I guess :) . OH and there are kinda almost no real fixes for this. Most of SGS GPS suck :P . There is GPS aids, shutting down wifi, GPS status app, changing the something according to your country.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcosrg3003:
Ok!

I got the same problem as the user from the post.

GPS worked like a charm on my Galaxy S (NDrive or Google) running 2.1.

I updated it to Froyo 2.2.1 JS7 and since then it doesn`t work anymore.

I can't get a fix.

I did the GPS position test and It locks on 8 satelites. Why the F%CK it doesn`t work anymore?

I am almost going back to Eclair.

Any sugestions?

TY!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daehenoc:
So you get a lock when doing the GPS test, but no luck in any other applications? I couldn't get a lock at all until I turned on my wireless as well as the GPS, then it worked for GPS test as well as applications...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcosrg3003:
I get a lock on 8 satelites on the Location Test with and without "Use Wireless connections".

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killa357:
I believe mine is one of the newer ones (got it as a refurbished replacement a month ago.) The screen actually sits slightly below the bevel on mine. It feels kind of awkward at first but I guess it is good to have as it would help protect the screen in some instances. How old is your evo? Just new, or is it refurb?

Now that I did some research its really starting to bother me. There should be a higher standard to be achieved when it comes to smart phones. Especially flagship devices
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killa357:
Hmm I say return it asap. Sometimes products that aren't top notch do make it out in market, that's usually just something getting past quality control. I didn't have any problems with my other evo until the USB plug came unmounted from the motherboard. This was probably because I was using a Nokia USB cord that latched on to the port a little too well. Have you had any other problems with it?

It's a light leakage problem that Sprint has NEVER admitted. You can go with a link on the issue to their repair department.

Here it is acknowledged on Engadget:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/htc-evo-4g-review/

Daniel.R.Hesse@sprint.com

That is the email for the CEO. Last time I emailed them the first week I had the Evo from launch about battery issues, I was CALLED the next day. Albeit from his assistant but that's pretty impressive. Try it. They might flag your account to get it replaced.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigjim1488:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
I just looked at mine and noticed the leaking light. The screen isnt coming up, yet (knock on wood). Mine is a 0003 and I have a stuck pixel (2 weeks old) I was worried about returning it because I didnt want a 0004. I heard 0004 was not as good, who knows! lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sekigah84:
Just to clarify a few things for some people.

I had a 0002 release date Evo. I didn't have any screen separation while some other people did. Some were bad. Like complete separation of the screen from the body itself. You could pull the screen off. That was obviously a defect. In dark environments I had "light leakage" from the bottom like in the Engadget picture. Not noticeable in the light.

I got my phone replaced for free cause I hosed my RSA keys. Now I am on 0003. It didn't have any heat spots on the screen and it didn't have any screen separation.

The differences was a brighter screen and a lower volume speaker (guess they got tired of blown speakers). As for the differences between the 0002 and 0003 for flashing purposes, there wasn't much. The differences are between 0002/0003 and 0004 due to the camera among other things.

Is there an App to turn my phone into a wifi hotspot for free? Like, I'm fine with paying for the app, but I don't wanna pay for tethering. I will root if necessary (heck, I'd probably root regardless when I get the phone).
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Clienterror:
You can use barnicle app (free) or if your more comfortable with modding your phone you can enable the mobile hotspot setting, it only takes like 10 min.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aquariuz23:
why do u even need 3rd party apps? Root your phone, and the wifi hotspot (aka tethering) option is built-in within the phone itself, for free.

Go here: http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-root to root your phone. It's very simple actually. Just follow the steps.

Good luck.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Rican2008:
Will AT&T know you are tethering? I am on unlimited plan and they may just switch me to a limited plan. That will suck!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] kenio8185:
They can't switch your plans unless you say so. They either need your sig from a store or need you to switch online. The worst that might (and most likely won't) happen is that they'll just cancel your plan, in which case, congrats, you just got an Atrix for a really good deal.

What is most likely gonna happen is that IF AT&T figures out you are tethering, they're just gonna charge you for it. I don't know how AT&T's rates are, but I believe the company I'm with, Bell (it's in Canada) charges about $5/mb if you're tethering.

So, if I were you, I'd get the app or do the mod. Then use about 1mb through tethering. Then call them in a few hours, maybe the next day and ask how much tethering you have used so far. If they say 1mb, you did something wrong (and get dinged on your next bill for it), if they say nothing, then you're good.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] kenio8185:
Ya, rooting is the easy part, but how do I access the wifi tether option after rooting? and are you sure I won't be charged for tethering if I use it?

Also, like I said, I'm not with AT&T. I live in Canada, and a company called Bell is gonna be getting it here soon, I'm gonna be buying the phone from them, and using it off their network.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Zerxer:
No, don't root using that article (could someone get them to update the article with the new method?). It's messy for the Atrix. Best thing to do now is use aRoot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=981866
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] DJ Yoshiman:
Dude, neither Telus or Bell have any sort of tethering fees. You also don't know if Bell will modify the phone to just include the option, seeing as AT&T have some sort of tethering fee service going on for some reason.

The only thing you're going to get from tethering here is whatever data you use being chipped off your regular data plan. I use 50 MB worth of tethering, that's 50 MB off my data (which makes sense).
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] kenio8185:
Are you sure they don't have any tethering? I remember once they increased my bill by a horrific amount, and they said it was because I tethered to my computer (I didn't tether and after many calls and hours of complaining, they took away the charge). However, thinking back to it, that was before I had data as well. I do remember the rep specifically saying it's because I tethered data to my computer though, maybe he meant that I tethered it but I was being charged regular data.

Anyways, what you said is what I want, I have 6gb of data and I rarely get passed 500mb. I wanna start using more of my data per month, and wifi tethering is gonna help me with that.

Hi All,

I just got the phone and love it but would like to be able to play my music from my SD card over my stereo without having to mount it as a usb drive, basically be able to use the usb plug to charge and carry audio over and being able to control it from the phone not the stereo itself.

When I had my iPhone I was able to put it in "iPod by hand mode" which would let me switch songs via the phone and not the stereo controls and I could also play Pandora over it as well and I would love to have this functionality back.

Thanks!
[Ideos S7 General] themoses:
Hello all ^^

I own a dual-touch captivescreen s7 with no intergrated SD (i have an 8gb microSD card inserted) , and I'm currently facing couple problems which I'm couldn't find any solution or discussion to them so I was hoping if anyone could have some input on this.

1. captivescreen bug:

There is a person who uploaded a video regarding this issue; when bottom left and top right's clicked , the axis jump to top-left and bottom-right and 2 axises cannot switch positions from a rotation, so during game plays such as pocket legends, it often mis-click on things

There is a video showing exact what the problem is, but I can't post links yet :o hehe

From what I can think of is that, since Taiwanese rom is also locked in 2-way rotation, could it be what's causing the problem? so I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem?

2. TuneinRadio stop playing/freeze/system hang then restarts:

It's just when I play musics it randomly stops or hangs, regarding if I'm using wifi or 3g, I think it might of being cache overloading or something? but I don't know how to fix it and it seems most people are happy using TuneinRadio with no such issue.. so I was wondering if anyone had encountered such problem?

I have rooted my s7, but I have not yet used app2sd or link2sd because I'm not very technically smart ....

the reason I rooted is because my s7 came with a build-in free version of document-to-go, and I could not upgrade or install my paid version of the software so I had to root it and remove it manually before I could install the full-version

If anyone's facing that problem, this way could fix it ^^

Thanks guys

Coming from an iphone 4>nexus S>Inspire 4G im akin for an atrix. Im just curious about a few things though, im not quite sure if i should give up my inspire just yet.

1. HDMI out - I'd like to connect the phone to my 55" LED TV and watch some netflix, HULU, or even network shows (fox, nbc ect) Is it possible? Or will i need the Multimedia dock for this? Or can i just output straight from HDMI to tv. Also would i need a third party app like PlayOn since Netflix wont play on Android yet? T

2. Quality - As said before i'd be outputting to a pretty awsome TV. How is the quality of the video youve guys seen?

3. Screen resolution - Coming from the Iphone 4 then Nexus S the inspire was great but you can easily notice the resolution, vividness just isnt there with the Inspire. This is a must have for me now. Is the screen resolution really all that???

4. Battery life - Im a heavy user. Im lucky if i make it 10 or 12 hours on my Inspire. Does the battery live up to the hype?

5. Fingerprint reader - Does it work? Is it convenient? Or is it just an add on that nobody really uses (i.e. NFC Nexus S)

6. Motoblur - How is it? Is it possible to install say ADW launcher and replace your home screen entirely?

Any opinions are are really appreciated guys
