[QUOTE=PyroCF;33767428]Didn't really affect the UK if you're referring to legal problems with Apple.[/QUOTE] Im on about the 'oil slick' problem everyone has been referring to. And im hearing about battery problems to.

[QUOTE=djjkxbox360;33764762]Wow why are you still on Froyo[/QUOTE] For whatever reason when I ever try to upgrade to CM7 Gingerbread my phone freezes at the boot screen and I don't know how to fix it.

[QUOTE=Wootman;33767665]For whatever reason when I ever try to upgrade to CM7 Gingerbread my phone freezes at the boot screen and I don't know how to fix it.[/QUOTE] did you wipe everything before flashing CM7?

[QUOTE=PyroCF;33767905]Oh newton rings, haven't seen them on mine. As for the battery there is a guide on how to properly calibrate it on XDA.[/QUOTE] I just dont want to root it to find it has problems and break the warranty D:

[QUOTE=Neddy;33767965]I just dont want to root it to find it has problems and break the warranty D:[/QUOTE] you can unroot it anytime

[del]Why is it my phone can't get to the Market but my desktop loads it fine?[/del] NEVER MIND. Problem was with my router. Yet another reason I fucking hate working with wireless.

[QUOTE=TomZa;33766302]daamn. what a shame. paypal is currently the only payment method for me.[/QUOTE] Go to a convience store or something and buy yourself a prepaid credit card. Mastercard and visa works fine. But you have to go online to get the card working one Internet. I have a prepaid Mastercard credit card for my android Market purchases. And you can get rid of the card when it's empty as you probably can't add more money on it. Best alternative for people who don't have many options, or are paranoid as hell.

[QUOTE=mankind_me;33767845]did you wipe everything before flashing CM7?[/QUOTE] Wipe everything on my SD Card and Phone? Or just one of those two?

Just got the Galaxy Tab 8.9'' for my mom, nice as hell.

[QUOTE=Neddy;33767965]I just dont want to root it to find it has problems and break the warranty D:[/QUOTE] No rooting required

[QUOTE=Wootman;33768280]Wipe everything on my SD Card and Phone? Or just one of those two?[/QUOTE] not the SD card or the internal memory where you have pics/music and stuff like that, but the system partition, the cache and the Dalvik cache from what I know CM works differently from normal ROMs, so that's why you have to wipe those 3

[QUOTE=Killuah;33764318]Dammit GTA 3 freezes at the GTA3 logo on my galaxy i9000. Maybe because I am still on 2.2.1?[/QUOTE] I'm still downloading the 450mb game data file :suicide:

[QUOTE=Wootman;33768433]How do I do that?[/QUOTE] hmm, I don't know what phone you have, but try finding instructions to flashing CM for your specific phone

Finally got my hands on the new galaxy nexus at my local phone place. Yeah, I miss physical buttons.

Just flashed my LTE GN back to Android 4.0.1 to see if the older radios fix the signal and battery rape.

I just tried Swype. I installed the Eastern European version first because I wasn't really thinking straight. After I got that changed to Western and changed the layout to Finnish, I only have one question: Why the fuck would I ever use the stock keyboard ever again?

Swype is still absolutely brilliant for one hand typing.

Personally I liked it for a bout a month.

I can't receive pictures that people send me on my htc inspire on CM7. I click download, it says downloading, but then it doesn't do anything. Is there a fix?

After a hour trying to find out why Clockwork mod wasn't working I fixed it! Now I have CM7 on my phone.

Yeah.

[QUOTE=garychencool;33769513]Let's say your drunk, and some how swype failed since you were so drunk, you couldn't swype your self on facebook. Yeah.[/QUOTE] if you were drunk enough to not be able to swype words, then I'd think you would also be too drunk to tap each letter individually

[QUOTE=mankind_me;33770189]if you were drunk enough to not be able to swype words, then I'd think you would also be too drunk to tap each letter individually[/QUOTE] I'm not sure if anyone of use would still have our phones if we were too drunk to type. We would probably lose it to that one female server that happens to take your wallet too.

Hulu Plus "works" on the Touchpad if you count obnoxious color artifacts as working :v:

[url]http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wp/2011/12/15/ice-cream-sandwich-alpha-rom-available-for-unlocked-xperia-phones/[/url] It's only an alpha and has limited features. (eg. No wifi and phone functions) Looks like they'll be releasing it early 2012. Before any of you make jokes, it's not for the Sony Ericsson Xperia™ Mini Pro SK17a.
