So, I have a Transform Ultra without cell service (long story) that I now use as basically an iPod touch. I do this because btunes (the only music app I like) is very glitchy on my phone with service. However, on the TU, it runs perfect, apparently due to it being almost entirely stock android...

Topic. I actually had the Boost version of this phone, and loved it. But since I had ZERO signal at school, where I spend 80% of the day, I had to switch to t-Mobile after a few weeks. I got the MT4GS, which despite having dual core 1.2ghz and 768 RAM, lags behind this phone, and is buggy as...

So I was a rooted Ally user many moons ago (has it been 7 months already? time flies with a Sidekick) and now, a Verizon-afflicted friend of mine needs a phone to replace his broken BlackBerry. So I'm giving him this one. however, it's running Velocity 1.0, which when I was still using this...

Now, I know I'm not the only one who hates the ruined and compromised versions of android that OEMs, escpecially Samsung and (shudder) HTC vomit onto their phones. which Is why I made a topic on XDA offering a bounty for the first person to get true stock android running on this thing. I'm...

So I updated a few apps (colorize widget, Go Launcher, and a news app) shortly after, I start having crashing issues. when the lock screen comes up, it gives me the message to swipe one direction to start using the phones, or swipe down to adjust settings, as if it was the first time I turned on...

In the past week, I've had at least seven apps disappear from my phone. It may have been more than that; I'm only sure of the one that are gone due to the home screen shortcuts having been turned into the default android icons, and when I click those, it says "this application is not installed"...

I just used No Lock on my old phone, but now Samsung's modifications seem to have made that ineffective. I also used the widget in extended controls, to no avail. any other options?

Ok so I got a new, larger sd card. i never installed any apps to the first one because i knew i would upgrade. however, when i copy/pasted all the files over, I tried to turn on some apps, and got a message saying the app was not installed. i switched to the old card, and everything worked. so...

..but it's time I move one to something better. I'm getting the t-mobile sidekick 4G. i needs me a better processor, and the keyboard+physical face buttons=t mobile switch. So I've backed up my entire sd card to my computer, but are there any specific files I should transfer to the new one, or...

just wondering.

I just tried a demo phone in the store and it had no micro SD slot. I'm really hoping it was because they cheaped out on just the demo version; does the final retail version have micro sd or not? and if so, is there a max capacity known?

I need a larger sd card for my music and other stuff. does anyone know from practice what size card it ca take? i looked online, ad apparently LG'smanual for the Ally says on one page 16GB is the max, but on another it says 32 is the max. so I figured i'd see if anyone here has actually tried a...

running velocity for about a month now. I used the terminal emulator when I first rooted, I think I tried a couple of commands I found in a topic here, I think I recall overclocking but I dont know what to. anyway, ever since then, when I open it up all I get is this: export...

I wondered if it will install on this, since it installs through the browser. I figure if it does, that would be a great way to get a worth while app store on this thing without rooting.

so one of the advantages this Tablet has that gives me pause when seeing the Acer Iconia about to come out, is the inclusion of the 4 android capacitive buttons on the side. thing is, i saw one demo video where a technician or someone with an early model was saying they were probably going to...
