    roaming notification

    I tried PRL and profile updates as well as every possible combination of roaming settings and always had this pop up randomly. The confusing part is I have very good coverage everywhere I go around here so I'm not sure why it ever went roaming in the first place. I know my old Epic would not...

    Does GPS Work in Airplane Mode?

    I can't speak for the S3 because like everyone else in the US I don't have one yet but I would imagine it should be able to or can be made to with a bit of a workaround. I know on my Epic 4G it will not get a lock when in airplane mode but you can take it out of airplane mode, get a lock, and...

    Gorilla Glass 2 = POS?

    I think one thing that may not be helping with its drop tests is the fact that unlike most screens in the past that were flat and had the body come up to cover the edges the GS3 actually has rounded edges that curve down to meet the body and this probably makes a thinner part on the edge that is...

    Trade NC for Galaxy Tab...

    Straight across trade? you bet. I have a Epic 4g so I know the video decode is MUCH more powerful than the Nook as it can even play 720p@60FPS AVIs without a stutter where the Nook struggles with 720p period. That being said I picked my Nook up for $200 so good luck getting a Tab for the same...

    Phiremod issue

    Phiremod (and CM7) do not have the DSP working yet that is needed for hardware accelerated video playback. In the mean time until that is working I recommend using Rockplayer, its not perfect but it will play just about anything as long as the CPU can keep up.

    Touchscreen Issues

    Well I had a chance to try that touchscreen calibration app finally and while it did not make a massive difference it did help and touches do seem more accurate, I would highly recommend giving it a try.

    Touchscreen Issues

    Well I just got my Nook Color this week from the ebay deal as well and found I had bad calibration type issues once I put Phiremod on it, while not phantom touches but if you try to tap the backspace button on the keyboard you have to aim for the bottom of it or you will get a "L" instead. Since...

    Charge phone with nook charger?

    Ah, if that's the case and the Nook Color's charger is not a standard micro USB port that is possible it might not charge a phone. Sadly I do not actually have my Nook Color yet to test this because its still in the mail, might have to find out on Tuesday when it gets here.

    Charge phone with nook charger?

    Honestly it depends on the phone as to if it will harm it or not. With the Samsung Galaxy S series it has been tested that they will not draw over 700mA even when put on a more powerful charger than the stock one so basically the charger will have excess capacity and the phone will not take...

    Nook Color on Sale for $199 today only

    Looks like I barely made it in time then, I ordered about 30 minutes before it expired and got mine. I can't wait for $250 I was somewhat tempted but since I have been reading a lot of manga and comics lately the $50 price drop pushed me over the edge as this will be MUCH nicer than reading on...

    Touchscreen doesn't work when charging

    I have had this happen only once and it was when I was using the stock charger running off a power inverter in my brothers car. It was so bad I could not even unlock the screen while it was plugged in. I switched to using my old Pre charger and I was fine after that. I would honestly point to...

    No sleep; new apps.

    The issue is when something keeps the processor from going into its sleep state so while its not chugging on something at 100% usage it is not going into its proper low power idle state and this will typically cause me 5-6% drain per hour on wifi (compared to less than 1% when working properly)...

    [ROM] Nebula v1.0.6

    I have been using this for a couple weeks now and will say its an incredibly stable ROM and I love it. Much, MUCH better than stock DK28 with great battery life and speed.

    Froyo DK28 is out for EPIC

    Well I was getting errors when i tried to update and found out that the old One Click Root 2.2.5 has conflicts with this update (modified system/bin/playlogo) so I removed it and the update worked fine. That being said for some reason now everything is seriously laggy, the status bar takes...

    Disable Battery Popup?

    The popup will turn the screen on shortly to display that it is done charging and should turn off again but if you are like me and use alarm clock plus then its special home screen and screensaver will then stay on with the popup displayed the whole time. I wouldn't mind if it poped up and...

    Dust Under Screen????

    I'm not sure dust under the screen is possible with a Super AMOLED screen due to how they make it, the digitizer and screen are bonded together so there are no extra layers in the display for dust to get into. This is also what makes for the amazing outdoor visibility compared to older AMOLED...

    Some Android Market Apps Missing Again?

    Of the apps I was using previously I'm missing Fandango and Jet Video Downloader, when i try to open the market page in I get a message saying "Not Found. The requested item could not be found." and a normal search yields nothing. Would be nice if this was fixed soon, its been 3 days now.

    Epic Photography

    I was out doing a service call out in the mountains by Victor, CO and came across some lovely fall colors and couldn't help but to stop and take some pictures. Click for full size. I didn't touch these up at all and was using the stock camera app.

    New update killed my battery life

    Yeah thats exactly what warned me something was up today along with the 10-12% an hour battery drain (compared to 5-6% an hour) when I wasn't really even doing anything with my phone. The drain was so bad that after over an hour of it being plugged in and playing music off the SD card it had...
