Until we Get a Forum for the 8.9 can you use this Thread
Thanks Guys
A
Thanks! We'll call it a temporary home. Now we need some dev's who can get CWM working and start cranking out some ROMs!
1st question !
Just bought a French HSDPA 8.9", locked on Orange network
Is there a chance to unlock it, using SGS or SGS2 tools available on Android Market ?
File structure is the same, network lock is probably stored in nv_data.bin (like SGS)
Does anyone know if we can use the 10.1 roms?

If we had CWM, I'd probably be willing to just give it a try!
what is required to get the new forum opened for the 8.9? A willing Mod? A certain number of committed devs? Enough user requests (is where do we send them)?
what android version is on your 8.9? Reviews say it comes with 3.2 preloaded but mine has 3.1 and when i check for updates it says there are none.

Would you believe that source instead of this one from Samsung? Read around the middle of the page (Google Maps pic).
Anyways I'd love a forum for this tablet I bought on the 7th. It is magnificent and pretty speedy (and even more so when you turn off all animations and delete useless Samsung widgets). Although I am waiting for Samfirmware.com to get the American source (they only have the Asian one for the 7310 which has a different versioning scheme) so I am able to ODIN safely.
Netflix apk for 8.9 ?
Just got my GT8.9-32GB today. Tried to install Netflix app 1.4.1 shows service unavailable error message. Same thing with 1.3 and 1.4.0. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Install via Market? Or manually installed the APK?
You get the error while installing the app, or while running it?
At the Mobile World Congress 2012, Samsung announced the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 running Ice Cream Sandwich. GSMArena.com got their hands on a demonstrator and produced the Youtube video below showing it off. I think we can expect the ICS release for the 8.9 to look about the same. What do you think about it?

Early GT8.9 videos also showed phone app (and a sdcard slot), so this doesn't mean anything.

Yes, including voice in ICS is not a problem. I think we just need a baseband that includes voice capability. If anyone is brave enough to try and flash GT7.7 or GT7.0Plus modem.img then we could maybe make it work. Unfortunately trying this could brick the radio or worse. I have thought about trying this, but i just don't want to brick my device...

1. Auto-rotate was off, so we couldn't see the rotation animation which is sometimes a bit choppy in 3.x.
2. Portrait mode wasn't shown (which is slower for the 10.1 in 3.x compared to landscape).
I wonder if ICS really brings us these magic software hacks that make the Tegra2 limitations go away...
I'm considering upgrading from the OG Atrix to the Atrix HD but I need to have a working lapdock for work. I use citrix to access my work computer and am worried about the up-scaling issues. (or if the dock will be recognized) I saw that the Atrix HD worked with ICS but there was some conflicting posts about the official JB update. Any information would be great. Thanks.

Mine did not work with JB, but does with ICS.
Nothing but a blank screen on JB, so I stuck with ICS.

Just tried it, same thing as the ahd rom... JB doesnt stretch the picture properly. Different in CM10, it just wont turn landscape whatever you do, even if you force it, it will show landscape in portrait mode.
You guys wont believe what I found... its actually an android-wide issue, Google has royally f***ed up all HDMI screen detection and stretching other than 720p and 1080p in JB, I'm not that smart to say if its a configuration or kernel issue though.

This really sucks. I want JB but this is the only thing holding me back.... why google why?

Question - there is the Mexican retail stock ROM on the development forum that is 4.1.2, is there a possiblity that it will work properly? Is it worth $25 to find out? I only ask because there is a garage sale page out on Facebook that my wife subscribes to and someone is getting rid of a mint condition unit.
No it doesn't work.
But yes, you can go back to 4.0 and it will work there.
Should we assume moto isn't going to fix the issue?
Maybe in their next phone if it has hdmi out, but even thats a stretch.

i have a lapdock for the ATRIX 4G modded to work with ATRIX 2, after i got the Atrix HD it still works with it... with Stock 4.1 BUT the celphone screen stays ON it doesnt work like with the old ATRIX 2 where i could set it to show screen in the laptdock only saving the phone from overheating... Anyone knows a way to make the Phone to poweroff screen while leaving lapdock on?, The other issue i have is with the resolution it seems the default table mode in the ATT 4.1.x is with a resolution smaller than 720p and it isnt filling my screen well.

1, You need to go back to android 4.0 for the screen to not stretch.
2, Delete the updater apk so it doesn't nag you go back.
3, Screen standby app on xda is free.

I was searching the updater.apk path to rename it and i found this:
cbrunner said:
Yes, you're right. That was dumb on my part.
My phone just did this again. The only thing I changed in this situation was the renaming of Updater.apk. So, either my device is defective or renaming Updater.apk somehow kills the phone eventually, but not immediately after you rename it. Just FYI in case anyone else thought about doing this.

Now im kind of scared to remove it i know that phone was HTC not Motorola but... And both UPDATE and APK seem to be the most famous words in this forum hehehe im getting lots of results with no real path.
I did it for a friend and he said the update nag didnt dissapear. Its not the updater apk the name is somthing else or maybe he just needed a restart. If you find out the exact name, write it here.
Is there any confirmation the lapdock 100 and lapdock 500 are working PERFECTLY FULL SCREEN with an atrix HD ? (1280x720 is ok, I can live without overscan)
not like the crappy 720x576 we get on the original Atrix 4G lapdock.

Hi everyone,
i'm looking into buying a new smartphone, the s3 mini got my attention!
i do have some questions about this devices do:
1:is it easy to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery?(with my previous phone htc desire c it was a pain to do it)
2: i'm a heavy modder (install another rom almost everyday ) and i noticed some issues with the cyanogenmod roms RIL and tearing are these issues a big of a deal? (I rather like touchwiz so i don't know if i'm gonna install a custom rom on it)
3: my final question: does this phone have a notification LED like the galaxy s3/s4 note etc
thank you very much,

i would like to believe that you have been on XDA long enough to know that the first rule is to search before you ask
there is a model of the S3 mini that has NFC support
please search next time
same goes for opening a thread on a topic that has already been done before

More expensive than s3 mini
S3 Mini is just great with my latest release. Other phone than on stock xD
I can recommend that phone.
There's a i8190N version with NFC chip, fully compatible with all custom ROMs for i8190.
But temporary there's no custom ROM that support NFC. I'm working on it, so NFC support might be soon.
Is there any other rom that is not HC 3.2 and has everything working properly? (wifi, teetering, 3G, camera, etc) Thanks
