    KitKat update - issues?

    Every since the KitKat update, I have had some issues. Primarily the phone seems to have slowed down, it runs hotter and uses battery faster. I have not rerun the Snapdragon Guru learn process again so that might help, however the oddest one was this morning. The phone just rebooted without...

    Finally Happened - USB cover came off

    Actually it appears to have ripped off. I know I had it fully pressed in when I unplugged it this morning but who knows. So for the few that still lurk around in this forum, has anyone else experienced this? I always did consider this the biggest weak point of this phone. I already...

    Love my Active so far

    I figured I would put my two cents in. I upgraded from the Captivate which I had from day 1. Despite all my efforts, after almost three years it just didn't want to do what I wanted. Fortunately AT&T Premier had a deal where I got the Active for $100 and still got to keep my old phone. The...

    I assume the OTA update that I received this morning was just for the android bug that recently came to light. Can anyone confirm?

    I ran out of space ugh! Solution

    I found my A200 running out of free space. I was baffled. I just recently rooted and went exploring using Disk Usage. I found the /data/GPS directory had 7 GB of data in it. It was full of gl*.txt files. It seems that every time an app uses the GPS it puts a file here. I did find a script...

    Help Pull data off of broken phone

    My sister in law broke the screen on her phone yesterday. A replacement is in its way but I wanted to know if I can get the data off the phone without being able to use the screen. Ideas?

    USB to serial

    I am sitting here at work, not really wanting to take one of my older laptops that has a serial connection out into the field. It is bulky, awkward and has a very short half life (battery). So I am thinking about USB to Serial and staring at my A200. I use my A200 for more than pleasure...

    Reboot without root

    It seems when I get close go 2 weeks of usage things start to freeze up or FC. I then have to turn it off and then back on. I really wish I could just reboot instead. Fast reboot helps to refresh some of the apps but I have had some stuff stuck that just will not unload no matter what. What...

    GPS tether to tablet

    Since the GPS sucks on the captivate I usually use an external Bluetooth GPS device for navigation and other needs that requires very accurate values when in motion. Now I have an Acer Iconia A200 with a remarkable GPS. I would like to use it if possible. Any ideas on how to tether it to the...

    Considering Purchase of A200-10g16u

    I have been wanting a tablet for a while now. My netbook is just cutting it anymore, plus its screen went Kaput. It is now delegated as a workstation for the kids. I am a couch surfer and casual game player. I am tired of laptops and really think tablets are the way to go. I think the...

    GB Upgrade Great - Camera.apk ugh

    I am really happy with the GB upgrade. However, I don't understand why the camera.apk that comes with it does not have the ability to use the power button as a shutter button. I had a hacked version with Froyo. Can I use the same one? What is everyone else doing?
