    Pluto TV doesn't work properly on Android Box

    Hi all, I'm new to the world of Android TV (or OTT boxes). I installed the Pluto TV app but it behaves strangely. It won't show me a program guide or let me change channels. When it first loads there's a flash of a channel up/down button to the side but too quick for me to get to, and the...

    Corrupt EFS/missing nv_data files

    I'm running Cyanogenmod 10.1.0-RC5-Hercules on a rooted phone with Jelly Bean 4.2.2 I got off eBay that way (in other words, I'm a newb when it comes to root). The problem started when I tried updating CM--I can't remember what I tried to update it to, it came through as a new update and I...

    Help Bluetooth no longer auto-connects

    I have only one BT device, a Jabra media remote control/headphone jack thingie, which has worked smoothly since day one (more than a year ago). Suddenly I've noticed in the past couple of months it will no longer connect automatically when I turn on the device and I'm forced to go to BT...

    Disabling Swype?

    Something has changed recently on my phone (not by me), don't know what, and now no matter what I do Swype constantly switches itself on as my keyboard (I prefer TouchPal). I know how to long press to select the input method, and this works temporarily, but as soon as I leave the phone alone...

    Yet more Tasker questions

    I have a new Samsung Galaxy S and in looking for ways to maximize the battery I came across Tasker. I'm in the trial period (just downloaded today), am very excited by what this app seems capable of, but I know nothing at all about programming code and am getting that drowning feeling. I read...

    Help Cliq XT USB compatibility

    With the Cliq XT being so new, I'm having a hard time finding accessories for it (I mean cheaper eBay items, not OEM/TMobile brand). I sort of miss my G1 with its universally recognized, very common microUSB. :( I came across a comment somewhere that the Cliq's port matches some model of...

    Help OTA updates on non-contract phone?

    I'm in the middle of a T-Mobile 2-year contract but really, really, really wanted the Cliq XT. Didn't want to pay full $500-whatever retail and not eligible for TMo's rebates, so I bought one from Craigslist. I was on a G1 previously so I switched it to an Android data plan and seem to be good...

    Help Blinding back light on key pad

    Anyone discover a way to shut the back light off behind the key pad? I tried watching a movie last night and those keys just blind me.

    Help Accelerometer on Cliq XT

    I finally left my beloved G1 for the Cliq XT (since discovering SlideIT soft keyboard that works so well thought it was safe to give up bulky physical QWERTY phone). Also just to point out I've had the G1 for almost a year so am very familiar with the Android OS (and married to it). I'm loving...

    SugarSync stopped working?

    Is anyone else having this problem? I spent a month stocking my SugarSync folder full of files and entertainment for my big vacation. On day one of my trip the Donut 1.6 update came through and now SugarSync force closes constantly, haven't been able to use it since. I've been emailing the...

    Saving ringtones to phone instead of card?

    I tell you, I love this phone but I hate it. Compared to a Windows Mobile device where everything is as simple as dragging and dropping into folders, this phone gives me such headaches with its overly simplistic (and limited) processes. Thanks to all the helpful threads on making your own mp3...

    Way to block read emails?

    Hi, I've had my G1 for about a week and am still exploring all its possibilities. I've searched around on this forum and can't find anything regarding this. I have it set up to check my email once an hour to save on battery (not gmail, my Comcast account. I wasn't ready to sell my soul...

    Touchscreen started acting weird

    This is my first post, so hello first of all :) I've been reading through a lot of the forum and there's a lot of useful stuff on here. I'm really grateful I found it, because the user manuals/resource books I've found are pretty vague and unhelpful. I've had my G1 for only a week, loving...
