[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ErrorCode680:
My AT&T HTC Tilt 2 is nearly a year old now, and I've recently run into a very irritating problem. Every time I try to use the "Update Now" feature (Contacts -> Updates and Events tab -> Menu -> Update Now) to update contacts' Facebook pictures and whatnot, the entire UI crashes and has to reload. No error messages or anything like that at all; the screen simply freezes for 15-30 seconds and the HTC Launching TouchFLO 3D screen comes up.

This issue has expanded to encompass any time I try to edit a contact (on that note, the "Link to Facebook account" button no longer does anything except cause TouchFLO to crash) or even open the Updates and Events tab.

I'm still using the same ROM that came with the phone (hard reset once or twice, so essentially the same thing), meaning Windows Mobile 6.5. Like I previously mentioned, I'm using the TouchFLO 3D UI (my attempt to update to the Sense UI went terribly).

Is there anything I can do to fix this, aside from hard resetting again? I've got a lot of contacts (more than will fit on my SIM card, in fact), and I'd really rather not go through all the steps of personalizing my phone for a third time if I don't have to. It'll be like November before I'm eligible for an upgrade with AT&T, so that's not a viable option right now, as much as I might like it to be.

Another side note: Using Windows Mobile Device Center, is there a way to basically copy all of my contacts and whatnot from my phone to my computer without adding in the contacts from Outlook? I'd really rather not deal with a bunch of random email addresses sitting in my phone's contact list. If this is possible, I may just try to use this method, hard reset, and then put the contacts back on the phone. The rest of the personalization isn't nearly as time-consuming as adding in another 80-ish contacts and then fixing the names of the ones I managed to fit onto the SIM card (because the SIM card saves them in the format of "Smith, John" in the last name field and nothing in the first name field...).

I've also got a 16GB microSD card, if that would be of any benefit in any of these endeavors.

Any and all help is appreciated! Thanks!

Not sure about all your facebook issues, but a great, quick and easy program that can save and restore contacts anywhere (including your storage card, if you like) is PIM Backup:

I use it all the time since I flash daily and I NEVER have any problems restoring my 200+ contacts using PIM Backup.

There's one problem with this kind of thinking,you can't charge people $300 more than a much more popular ipad for a beta product.
[Xoom General] jamaicansolja:
What's even more hilarious is people will sit here and defend this price point.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
What's even more funny is the people who will come to xda just to complain because they have nothing better to do.

The xoom is only $70 more than a comparable ipad2 while having better hardware and arguably a better base OS experience.
[Xoom General] sgtcasey:
A device is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. :-)

However, for $70 more than the equivelant model iPad I'm happy for the fact my Xoom eventually will have Flash and 4G.

[Xoom General] nbowes:
Got mine with a data package contract for $130 less.
[Xoom General] ihtfp69:
Also, to upgrade the ipad to 64gb, it's another $100 plus tax. To upgrade a xoom, it's the price of a 32gb micro SD and possibly missing that second part. Not to mention you can upgrade it on your own after you buy it. You're not forced to decide before you buy it.

The guy didn't say the Xoom was worth the price, but rather Android Honeycomb is a really good operating system.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jereso:
So I have a used CDMA US Cellular Desire (SLCD), and today, a screen imperfection appeared. It's not a scratch, and there's no dead pixels. I think the picture will show what I'm trying to say.

I have a screen protector on, and it seriously showed up randomly. The screen still works, and aside from a small difference in brightness there's nothing wrong.

Any sort of diagnosis?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannylill1981:
Have you taken your screen protector off it looks like its under that.....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Kinda looks like the screen has actually cracked. Don't know if it has but if it bothers you (I know it would bother me) I would get a new screen or something.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LINKSLOVESANDROID:
i had asimilar issue with my iphone and it turned out to b a bubble under the screen protector. i dropped my phone and the screen proptector took the impact which left a bubble, but a bubble is better then a crack. id buy a new screen protector and peel her off to double check. htc has a good policy with there customers and i bet you could get a new phone
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jereso:
Sorry, I was gone for a while and forgot about this. It went away the next day! And no, it wasn't on the screen protector. I guess it was some kind of oil that took a little time to evaporate.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtmaniak:
I would like to get more than just Firefox on the webtop. A few applications in particular:

Mozilla Thunderbird

Gimp (or equivalent)

OpenOffice (or equivalent)

If I can get these three applications installed, I could fully function without a PC nearby all the time. I have very little Linux background beyond loading up a build and playing with the applications that were already installed. Any information will be appreciated. Anyone think this can be done? Memory limitations is all that I see really standing in the way. I doubt this will be even up to par with most netbooks as far as multi-tasking...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sogarth:
It can be done. It's just a matter of doing it cleanly, which at least I'm working on. Although trying to run Gimp on this hardware... that's gonna suck. :p

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sogarth:
As others have pointed out, ya ain't getting Chrome. Source code isn't available for it. The best you can get would be Chromium, but the earliest Ubuntu packages available for that are for 10.04, and we're running on a 9.04 base. It'll be painful to do that upgrade, and there are no guarantees on what would work after that.

But, if you're willing to do the work, I'll happily cheer you on! :D

Are you overclocking? Sometimes it lags for me at higher speeds and will even crash or reboot the phone.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadFerIt2011:
How frequent are these "lags"? Check your running services and battery use and make sure you don't have any rogue service or application utilizing your CPU.

Even on the NS you'll notice a slight jitter once in a blue moon. It's just the nature of a multitasking phone that some request or process may suddenly take away too much CPU from your current application.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Philthechil:
I've been doing some research for buying an android tablet for about a month now. Things that have become a must for me:

512mb (or better) of ram

Tegra 2 cpu

Around 10" high res (enough for honeycomb) screen

Under $500

Rootable, and has good dev support

Most you will be thinking, "you're describing the viewsonic g-tab, right?" Well, that's mainly what I'm thinking about. I'm wondering if there are any other great tablets that I'm missing. Any advice, comments or whatever would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mobius999:
Id stay away from the g-tablet. The specs seem great for the price, but the screen is a HUGE disappointment. The viewing angles are terrible, it washes out when moved the slightest bit. In fact, straight on doesn't even seem to be the best angle.

I didn't even bother rooting mine, which anyone would want to do since the tap n tap UI on it is terrible. The screen was an immediate dealbreaker. My flytouch 2 screen is leaps and bounds better, and that's kinda sad since it was less than half the price of a g-tablet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AGx-07_162:
I think you're looking for something that doesn't exist yet. The best bet will probably be the Tablet Toshiba is dropping soon, assuming its around that price. Otherwise you might as well keep waiting with me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Philthechil:
Ah, ok. I had been hearing that. I didn't think it played that much into it. I wish I could buy one just to test it out
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] scytheavatar:
The view angle of the G Tablet certainly could be better, but this guy is exaggerating too much. The screen looks terrific when seen at the best angle. And I can highly recommend the G Tablet for you. It isn't perfect but no Tablet out there for any price is perfect.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Philthechil:
Thanks guys for your input. I've decided I'm just gonna have to go with the risk and buy one. If the viewing angles really are that bad, I'll simply re-sell it on ebay
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cmhartt:
Viewsonic Gtab

Viewing angle is NOT that bad, accessories are the problem. Can't find them in the US! But once you get a good rom on it, I have had no regrets dropping a few hundred on the toy.

Notice I say toy, cause there is no 'need' for this equipment yet. No honeycomb, no easy out of the box use, but I enjoy the speedy vegan tab rom and have used it for movies, email, and just tom-foolery android apks. Get an atom laptop if you want something out of the box that is based on functionality if you need to buy before Q4 2011.

You should check out the Barnes and Noble Nook Color! I got one just for the ereader and have since rooted it and then even installed CM7. The only thing it doesn't have is a camera and Bluetooth mic support(yet).

BN really under sold its capabilities. It is the little tablet tablet could...

P.S. the dev community is amazing around it...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Gin1212:
As much as I agree with how awesome the value of the Nook color is... It doesn't meet any of his requirements.

I believe the Acer Iconia Tab and Asus EEE transformer meets all of your needs and price range.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jon2555:
I have Toshiba Folio 100 and I'm not happy with it, little dev support, bad screen, lots of bugs that Toshiba don't fix and if you buy one, you'll surly get one with bad part(s), because Toshiba made bad parts and every tablet has another parts. New Toshiba tablet seems OK, but I won't buy any from Toshiba. I have same problem and I'll wait. In near future(2012), tablets will better and they'll have dual boot(android,ubuntu;androd, windows 8), faster processors(nvidia quad core processor), new OS's(windows 8, ubuntu, android ice cream sandwich tbat will be universal, chrome os) and the best of all, they'll cheaper!

After this, I think you will wait ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ddelamareuk:
I have the Acer Iconia A500 Tab which was bought in Germany.

Has a few small issues as you would expect from a fresh honeycomb device but nothing that you couldnt live with until Acer put out the update for Honeycomb 3.1 before the end of June.

If you can get past the little niggles, it has an excellent screen with amazing viewing angles, bright, crisp and clear. Fantastic build quality, including a thin brushed aluminium skin and a reasonable weight that wont flare up your RSI.

After the usual tweaks and additional root apps for improved battery life, you can quite happily use the device constantly for between 10-12 hours (mixed media)

has 1gb of ram, 32gb space, wireless -n, USB, Mini USB, Mini HDMI, encryption etc etc etc.

Baring in mind that it is almost 'stock' honeycomb 3.0 (Still includes the mobile phone elements even though this is wifi only, there is a reason bhind the choice ;) ), i believe the slab has a lot of potential and cant wait till people start improving it.

Im very happy with the device so far and fully expecting the issues to be resolved in the first customised version of the 3.1 update from Acer.

All for 499 Euro :)

There's your deal... :D

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolsticeZero:
Yes, against defects. If it's physical abuse, not so much. Even then, it won't be $400. Take it to a Sprint store and they'll charge you $35, as mentioned under their new repair ToS. The only time you need to go through Asurion insurance now is if there's water damage or it's stolen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
My usb port broke on my Evo. I have insurance, so it didn't cost me anything. It's a common issue with the phone apparently & doesn't fall under user damage. Without insurance it'll probably cost you $35 at a Sprint store.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbarresi:
Page plus is prepaid and uses Verizon's towers. You shouldn't have had to "flash" anything to get your Eris to work on PP. The problem is probably just as your phone is saying, that there are insufficient funds to make the call, send the text, or access the data that you hope to. Go to page plus's website and check your account balance. Any data leaks on your phone could eat through your balance rather quickly. That may be why you are getting the insufficient funds message.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viogrep:
If your eris is on pageplus, just make sure the ESN is associated with your pageplus account (call them). And then dial *22890, thats all you have to do.

*edit* after re-reading, what I'm assuming you did was flash a new rom... If you've already used that eris on pageplus before the flash, just dial *22890, wait for it to finish, and have fun.
