[Atrix 4G General] begadkepat:
I mentioned this way back when the Atrix was first announced. People jumped all over me, saying what a stupid idea a tablet dock is. Since that time, I've seen dozens (yes, I've counted) of subsequent suggestions for exactly the same thing, generally with positive responses.

I still think it's an awesome idea. I doubt, however, that something like this will ever be produced, by Motorola or not.
[Atrix 4G General] UnCommonGrafx:
Chuckle,

Watch: Apple will take this idea and create this logical next step.

Motorola actually had a good idea, as well implementation is looking pretty good. Yet I think that if they don't get their accessories priced better they will lose out on their own revolution.
[Atrix 4G General] Scoop3:
The sad thing is... Apple will price it similarly, or higher, and they'll still sell tons... :(

[Nexus S General] thelonealchymist:
Hello,

I'm trying to decide if I should get a Nexus S while there on sale and just terminate my G2 line and sell it on Craigslist. Would this work or would T-Mobile catch on and charge MD or something also what do you thinking about the Nexus S compared to the G2 I mean j like the keyboard but I do type faster on the on screen Keyboard and I really only like the feel of it irk what do you guys think
[Nexus S General] [hfm]:
I got tired of the bulk of the G2, and I hardly ever used the keyboard. Swype deprecated it.

I am much happier now.
[Nexus S General] n1ggyn1ce:
when I saw leaked pics of the G2, I was like this is gonna be my new phone. Then I checked it out in person and was turned off by its bulk and clumsy hinge. It didn't feel smooth sliding out the keyboard..had to use 2 hands instead of 1. Anyways, good thing I waited for the Nexus and I love it! So my answer is YES.
[Nexus S General] BraydenJames:
Absolutely. You get true stock and a much faster and sleeker device. I thought about the G2 when moving to T-Mobile. So glad I got my Nexus S :).
[Nexus S General] frenchy99:
I came from a G2! I got tired of random data loss, poor call quality
[Nexus S General] mcp2009:
This here. I had random signal loss a lot.
[Nexus S General] xandermpls:
Dude definitely get the nexus s. If you want a new experience.

I would say as long as you have an android phone, n not an iphone your golden,

Personally, I have my G2 running CyanogenMod 6.1.1 with setcpu (overclocked when battery full to 1ghz and as the battery gets lower, I have it slowly clock down), and juicesaver (this kills having data on when the screen is off but it still alows googlevoicetexts to come through etc.) Also, memory AND battery expansions make this a good solid phone.

I also have the MT4G modded n such.

BUT,***** the nexus s is very sleek, the best samsung has put out so far imo. It has a fast proccesor, nfc, amoled, and gingerbread, off the batt to startt with, if you mod it, it just gets better.

Get and use what makes you happy, but just don't bite the apple. If you have had your G2 long enougj and want a new experience and get a good sale on your G2, go for it.

5stars
[Nexus S General] zephiK:
T-Mobile doesn't care if you change your phone when you're in a 2year contract with a phone. You just don't get the 2-year discount.

It'll take a few days to get used to using a virtual keyboard than a physical but once you get used to it. You'll feel that physical keyboards are just a waste of space.
[Nexus S General] CB620:
I traded my g2 for the nexus. Haven't looked back since. once you root it everything else is a no brainer. It beats out close to all phones on the market.
[Nexus S General] CB620:
Your original plan will work. And download swype you won't miss your keyboard
[Nexus S General] CB620:
Dont have either issue
[Nexus S General] chrisfilmpunks:
I started my android ownership with a G1 because it was cheap, and there was a ton I could do to a $80 phone.

Before that I had an HTC Diamond for cost and "crap to play with" factor.

The Touch Pro just turned me off for it's bulk and subjective feel.

The G1 had some of the same issues, but I knew if this experiment worked I'd go for the Nexus S.

In between getting the G1, and later buying a Nexus S, I just found too much of the lingering turnoffs about the Touch Pro/G1 when I checked out the G2 as a cheaper alternative to the 2x cost Nexus S.

A guy I work with can't stand bar phones and what I like about the nexus S in general. He's always liked his TP2, G1, blackberries, Droid pos with keyboard.

Find a "good" Nexus S and just be happy, if that's what you subjectively "like".

My case

The battery was drained yesterday (is not the first time) and ever since then, it won't get pass the window screen in the beginning. It would immediately shuts off after the window screen appears.

I am able to get into

tricolor screen

When connecting to the computer, it would restarts instead of shutting off.

Tried:

Reinstalled Hardspl, radio and window rom - didn't help

Any pointers?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dark_prince:
Recharge the battery using any External Charger (called universal charger)

Then, put battery back into your kaiser. Keep Camera Button pressed and insert USB Cable (remember you must have sim card and SD card removed). Then Disable USB in activesync and flash with default HTC rom
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] beely:
I was able to install the stock rom.

The phone only load up on one occasion with the following things are met:

sd card removed

connected to computer or charger

and hold onto reset button for 3 seconds

It won't load in any other way.

THe next thing I did was to install an android kernel.

I was able to get into linux with the above items are met.

In the linux screen, I try install the SD card in while it was "waiting for a SD card" <- not sure if I should be even doing this, the phone will immediately shut off.

Could this mean my SD card became faulty? Window is still able to read it via a card reader.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Captivate General] h0s90:
I currently have a rooted Captivate running 2.1 stock rom. If I update to 2.2 via kies will I run into any issues? Will I still be rooted? Good idea?

ps - i'm pretty noob

Thanks
[Captivate General] ConeyKiller:
Unroot, update, reroot literally takes 10 minutes
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
with 2.2 you will now have 3e recovery with signiature verifacation.

use this fix to fix that.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=909213

if you have root explorer or similar with mount RW, you dont need adb just mount and drop file!
[Captivate General] bobapunk:
I believe you can skip the "Unroot" step. I did not unroot my 2.1 before running the update and it worked fine.

There is an alternative method to get CWM on 2.2. All you need to do is go to this thread and download SuperCurio's "UCKB1+Voodoo" .tar file. Use Odin to flash this onto your phone. Once you do that you will have a new KB1 Kernel that has Voodoo Lag fix AND CWM Recovery built in.

This method is so much simpler than the ADB method Trusselo pointed you to AND you get Voodoo Lag fix at the same time!
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Or you could just flash Cognition 4.1.1 which has voodoo in it.

Have fun!
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
In that case, better to go straight to Cog from 2.1 and skip the Kies update to 2.2 entirely.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
As stated above If you are look for a stock feel that will not make you hate the phone go with cog right from 2.1.

On a side not this has been covered alot already. please search before opening a new thread.

Its there something with our in singer themes that make battery life better our worse? I flashed sc 2.9 and have had great battery life better then ever before I always theme but decided to stay stock for some reason. I want to try a theme but asm scared I wil lose my 24+ hours of battery life.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivorycruncher:
Um, a theme is just a package of recolored icons, apps, and other graphics. How would that cause poor battery life? Okay, I guess some also come with some mods like the accurate battery mod, but nothing that should ever affect battery life negatively. Theme away, my friend. Oh, and make sure you get a theme that's designed for the specific rom you're using (I.e. don't install a theme for AOSP on Super Clean, and vice versa). Worst case scenario, something in the theme actually does cause battery drain, and you reflash the rom to revert to the stock theme.

Hello to all!

This seems a stupid question, but not for me. I read every night befere sleeping, and the size of the Nexus S makes it a little hard. My thumb doesn't reach all the screen when I hold the phone with only one hand.

Anyway, is there any case, or some way, to attach the phone to the hand, like a rubber band, or a tight strip?

It would really improve my Nexus experience :)

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsI9003:
I have a new (2weeks) samsung GT-I9003 which kies report a new firmware update & before doing that want me to take backup but it will only backup my contacts/sms etc. how do I backup my installed apps as I have not yet rooted my phone, I searched the forums & found a way to root but got to know that even rooting will loose my apps/data so what should I do first?

I need the following things

I am testing various apps to find the best ones which I will using long term so as of now lot of install/uninstall hapening, after few days once I settle I want to update new firmware but should I root before that or after updating to new firmware.

Does rooting remains rooted after new FW updates in future?

Once rooted I can install apps like Titanium, unrooted I can't use Titanium yet to back up my apps & its data so its a catch 22 situation for me & atleast once I will have to loose my apps data but this time I should do it once for all so I can streamline future updates.

I took backup & then started the firmware update, it downloaded a small file showed 100% complete & then strangely it opened another windows & its now downloading a huge file of 400-500Mb...........is the firmware that big?

The downloading is going on past 10 mins on 1mbps connection.

Finally it gave error in mid way I assume that something happened & made the usb connection loss, I got these screen shots & the phone is now hung displaying "downloading do not turn off the target"

What should I do, need help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsI9003:
Since i did not get any answer i took the battery out & then plugged in again the phone booted fine.

I now have rooted my phone, if i update the firmware will I need to root it again?

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ADude:
Is there an LCD Density app whose setting survives a reboot ?

I am enjoying setting it to 200, but it resets on reboot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mintcookies:
you can manually edit the build.prop file in the system folder.

There's a line for lcd density that looks something like:

edit ro.sf.lcd_density

use Root Explorer to access and edit it. then save and reboot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] hrizzy:
Also there is Font Changer that keeps density after reboot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rulevoid:
What is the absolutely correct LCD density? What exactly is it anyway? I don't understand its difference from resolution.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ThrowingKs:
169.3333

It is the density of pixels per inch. Use the physical size of the screen and resolution of the screen, and determine how many pixels are in a square inch.

The Nook Color is 1024 x 600 resolution, on ~7in screen.

http://thirdculture.com/joel/shumi/computer/hardware/ppicalc.html

My preferred method of permanent density change:

adb pull /system/build.prop

edit build.prop on PC text editor

enable r/w /system/

push build.prop back to /system/
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] philburkhardt:
You can also just do it through Root Explorer, right on the nook.

-Go into the system folder

-Change folder to RW

-Long press build.prop and choose 'Open in Text Editor"

-Find the line with LCD density and change to whatever

-Switch folder back to RO

-Reboot

-Enjoy!

If you don't want to do any of the manual editing, LCD Density Changer by Beansoft (in the Market) will keep your density after a reboot. It costs about $1.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] docfreed:
Unfortunately, there are two lines in build.prop with LCD density (x and y direction) - which one [or both] do you have to change?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] philburkhardt:
Not sure what you are looking at. Mine is as follows:

# ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES

#

keyguard.no_require_sim=true

ro.com.android.dateformat=MM-dd-yyyy

ro.com.android.dataroaming=false

dalvik.vm.lockprof.threshold=500

dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=m=y

ro.com.google.locationfeatures=1

ro.com.google.networklocation=1

ro.allow.mock.location=0

ro.sf.lcd_density=160

ro.setupwizard.enable_bypass=1

Don't see anything about X and Y. There is:

ro.sf.hwrotation=270

...but I specified the LCD Density line.

EDIT: Btw, I am running CM7.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] docfreed:
I'm seeing ro.sf.lcd_density.xdpi=169.3333 and ro.sf.lcd_density.ydpi=169.3333. I also see a line (looks commented out) that is # ro.sf.lcd_density=240. So I do not which one to change - is it p0ossible that # ro.sf.lcd_density=240 was left over from a previous ROM flash or use of LCD Density Changer (I used to use that app but trashed it because it would not hold density on reboot.

And thanks for the prompt response!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wretchedlocket:
LCD Density Changer is available in the market.

If you go the build.prop method, notate out (using the # sign at the start of the line) the X/Y lines and use the lines from the poster's build.prop
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] philburkhardt:
I would say it is a definite possibility. 240 is the density on my EVO. I don't know that is was ever associated with the nook.

Here is my build.prop from CM7 v21 (sorry, I had to zip it to attach). The LCD density is pretty straight forward.

Sounds like you may have a Frankenstein build.prop ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] docfreed:
Yeah, I see what you mean about a Frankenstein build.prop - mine's quite different (although my Nook is running smooth as silk - just running Eclair (rooted) with no special tweaks excepting that I applied a tweak for the screen sensitivity via ADB. The tweak (posted on NookDevs) did a fabulous job of making the notorious "corner sensitivity issues disappear. Hmmm! That could of changed build.prop. Anyway, I'm probably not going to screw with it now - I'll wait until a really stable CM7 or HC comes around.

Thanks for the help anyway.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ThrowingKs:
Comment them both out. Using the # sign.

Then add ro.sf.lcd_density=169.3333 right under them.
[Galaxy Tab General] yorkeyorke:
I'm trying to reflash my sprint Galaxy Tab back to stock rom but currently am stuck on the Samsung logo when booting. I can access download mode but not recovery mode.

I've tried to flash the stock firmware via Odin 1.3, Odin 1.7 and Heimdall, but all have given me the same results. I've even tried to flash KhasMek's kernel in an attempt to access ClockworkRecovery. That actually works, but even after clearing user data/cache/Dalvik cache I can't seem to boot.

The only thing I haven't been able to do is to perform a repartition via Odin. Everytime I check that option Odin hangs at the DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!! message. Once I give up and unplug the galaxy tab I am greeted by the phone ! pc logo, but Odin detects it fine and I am able to flash the stock rom on it again and access download mode once more.

Would being able to perform successful repartition allow me to boot up my galaxy tab again?

[Xoom Themes and Apps] ghoticov:
Can someone please point me to a place that explains how to push files via adb? I have Android SDK installed and I know how to do a screen shot using Dalvik Debug Monitor using the ddms.bat file. But other than that, I don't know what I am doing. lol Also, I am not rooted.

I know it can't be that difficult, any help is appreciated! Thanks!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ghoticov:
Holy crap, apparently I pushed a new bootanimation via adb and really had no idea what I was doing. lol

So I guess my question is different now.

First, I put the bootanimation.zip file in the platform-tools folder.

Then I launched a CMD prompt and then I went into my Android/Android-SDK\platform-tools\

then I typed in "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local" and I wasn't even sure it did anything.

So my question now is what made it push the bootanimation file to my xoom? Did it have something to do with the file being in the platform-tools folder, along with the adb.exe file?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] sangreal06:
I don't really get the question... It pushed the file to the Xoom because you told it to. A better question might be why it did not push the file during your previous attempts, but I cannot answer that without knowing what you tried. Anyways, I just wanted to chime in that since you are already familiar with DDMS, right under the screenshot option is a file explorer that you can use to push files.

edit: actually, I think it may not be possible to push to subfolders in /data using ddms since it cannot see them
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ghoticov:
Yea, I didn't do it in ddms because I did not see the local folder. I did it through the CMD prompt. But my question is how does it know where to push the files by just typing "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local"? No where in that does it say push it to the xoom. When using adb, does it automatically try to push the file to whatever Android is plugged up? How does it know where and what to push it on? That was my question. :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] short/y:
Best place I've found to start is http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html which gives an overview along with some good details on some of the subcommands. Beyond that, use your favorite search engine.

To answer your question more directly, though, if only one Android device is connected, ADB can figure out how to talk with it. With two or more you'll need to specify the device (which you can get from "adb devices").

HTH
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ghoticov:
Ahh.. cool. I did google it to see what came up and learned a little but nothing ever explained how adb knew what or where to push the file.

But just knowing that it does know, then the rest is pretty easy to figure out. I can follow and type commands well... even though I might not know what they do (which is scary, huh?). lol

Edit: Thanks for the link also.
