I've seen threads like this before where accessories are listed in one thread and sticked so they don't get lost in the fray.
I'm sure we'll be getting some more gTab people coming in and it would be easier for everybody. There's a lot of stuff that people won't know to hunt for or could miss.
Could we get this done? Could you add both Androidstickers.com and the Carbon Fiber Cover from Getshadeonlline.com to the list?
Maybe it can be locked and the actual creators can send a PM to have their accesories added.
interesting idea, dont forget the canadian place with the dock.

That's right, Indirect needs a new phone and wants you all to donate...kidding. -read below-
This is more of a thread to be offtopic for this section so you can chat about your day and whatnot.
On topic for the thread though: I do need a new phone which makes my day upsetting. How is everyone?
Got a paper clip?
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/story/2006/07/07/paperclip-house.html
On a more practical note, try Craigslists' bartering forums. If you are good with phone mods (or whatever), you can probably find a service-for-old-phone deal or two on there.
It does take persistence, so I'd suggest setting up a script bot to search & reply to any lead. If you live in a big city, you should get plenty of leads.
sounds like someone else is board... like me i usually buy used phones off of ebay. You will be amazed how many people just have old phones laying around and dont realize they can sell them on ebay. Even if they dont work. People are always looking for parts. So, I would start out by asking friends and family if they have old phones laying around, then go to ebay if you have no luck.
Ok after a dozen of the same posts, complaints, observations posted over the last little while hopefully people will read this and stop posting new (read useless) threads.
HALP! my browser / launcher / whatever isnt as fast as my phone!
Yes, different devices, different reactions. The same way two different cars may react differently the stock browser on the prime and on your nexus s, htc, samsung, etc. will react differently.
It is no secret that the stock browser and stock launcher can be laggy at times. If you dont like it try a different launcher and different browser.
To do a proper comparison between two different devices you should load the same launcher and same browser on both devices. Please stop and think before posting "my phone is faster than this %$#@ prime" threads, do proper tests, know that we know the launcher and browser are slow, and use one of the suggested solutions.
OMFG! Da prime is discontinued!
At least three threads i have been in TODAY have people speculating the prime is discontinued. "An asus employee told me, my store stopped recieving stock, my local store has them on clearance"
As of this date there has been no official word from Asus reguarding the status of the prime. Please do not post threads about this unless there is something official, or you have proof.
Actually, know what? please just dont post these kinds of threads. Speculation never got anyone anywhere.
WTF! My GPS / / Wifi works / doesnt work
Ok, we pretty much all know at this point the wifi and gps are crap on the prime. Some people have better than others, some people find weird solutions.
Im personally convinced there are several plecibo fixes (you THINK they work because you WANT them to work). There is yet to be found a fix that works for everyone, aside from having wires hanging out of the prime. Lots of threads about this, read the "opened my prime" thread (all 100+ pages of it) lots of good info.
I WANT ROOT, WHY CANT I HAS ROOT! .21 issues...
Ok, seriously? Few things i gotta clear up...
Just because its easy to root ONE android device does not mean its easy to root ALL android devices. Also consider we HAD root before .21 which was a pretty good effort from the devs. Asus patched the hole used to root, now we need to find another way. Complaining will not get us root faster. Yes, we all know you want to root your prime, just give devs time to figure it out.
CAN I HAS UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND KEEP MY WARRENTY TOO?
No. just no.
The reason its easier with samsung devices is because samsung does not lock their bootloaders and actually gives us the tools to flash new kernls / roms to our phones. Asus does not do this, in fact they try to make it hard on us. The only way to unlock at this point is to send your serial to asus, they do some fun math with it, and send you an unlock code. Deal with it, use the unlock asus gave us or dont unlock at all.
HOW DOES I GET GPS DONGLE?
The GPS dongle was prematurely leaked. It will be officially announced when its ready, not a moment before.
Basically, when its ready you can register your serial nubmer with asus, they will send you a GPS attachment (fixes to the dock connector on the prime), should be available in the next week or so, stay tuned. VIP.asus.com, should be announced April 16 (ish), expect a month to have it ship once they have your info. Should be free for every prime owner.
OH LOOK! SHINY PRIME SUCKS/ROCKS COMPARED TO ______
For serious? Because there are not enough comparison threads already (use the search, its what its there for) you had to make another? If we want comparisons we can easially search youtube, there are literally dozens of em. Sure its nice to know how this device stacks up against another but there has got to be a thread you can post in already, no need to make another one. (Also, warning, you may get banned, just sayin)
Thanks for taking the time to read this, may your future posts be constructive and benefit the community!
You might want to add the stupid comparison threads although those have all been b& recently.

I find this to be a useless thread. Can we get it deleted too?

It wouldn't be so bad if there was one of each of them but as soon as one pops up 15 more pop up. For a certain period of time I only went into the dev section because it was a huge flame war about prime vs iPad...

Thanks this eliminated 1/2 the threads on xda haha

I'm confused, my gps sucks, wifi stinks, I want my gps dongle, my Prime is laggy compared to my HTC Aria and my Prime kicks the new iPads ass.
Should I go ahead and make separate posts for each problem?
Oh ya, here's my home screen.
Thanks for the thread .
There should be like an Android quiz before you are able to post (newbs can still register and read) new questions.
Kinda like a Sgt's exam for cops or something similar.
Something not too hard but will require some sort of experience and/or common sense with regards to Android devices.
Updated to include comparison threads.
Lol Nefariouss sorry you think its useless, i was hoping that people might read this thread and know not to post the same types of threads we see pretty much on a daily basis here. If you do not tire of the same quesitons being asked or the same statments being posted every day you are much more patient than I, and I commend you. Well done!
scataldo721 ya, sad isnt it? however it would be a much better place donchya think?
theandies: Lol, thanks for the chuckle.
admartian: I agree, however then we wouldnt have half the posts on the forum, there would be a lot less spamming and flaming, people might treat each other with respect, use the search button, and post relitive topics!..... we cant have that now can we

Haha, thanks for the laugh! that would be funny stuff.
Dam.. people just need to read more..
I don't think I ever created a thread and Ive learned so much from xda.. just from reading and searching.
Does anyone now of any phone or tablets coming out. i don't care which one, talk about any!!!
it could be the SIV, the next nexus, a new HTC phone I DON'T CARE< just talk about it.
If you refer to links that would be great and videos are the best, or you can just type it up but i just want to know of any new good phones and tabs coming out.
P.S. I did do a lot of research on Google and did read a lot, i just want to know some of the stuff you found or rumors you heard.
P.S.S. This is supposed to be just for fun so don't go around saying random stuff like, "Wrong Discussion im moving it".I hate pricks that are party poopers.
THNX!!!!XD
So I know the Market section is closed for sales and trades, no idea why. I am assuming it was due to some legitimate issues. But my question is will the Market section ever come back? I would assume that if it wasn't, the mod would have removed it all together, but its still there. Been trying to find a place to trade with people but not having much luck. Is there any place that people trade android devices?
It was closed because users were abusing it. Basically people scamming others and people were not taking the proper precautions to protect themselves when making a deal with another member.
Celltraderonline is a good website to check, quite a few of the well known xda member in the market place are over there.
Or if you rather buy a phone, swappa is a good site to check as well.

I kind of assumed as much was going on in the Market Section. Its pretty sad. Thank you for the suggestions.

Yeah its sad that there's low life's on here that scam people, ruining the MP for other members. Hopefully the people who were scammed, learned a lesson and take the proper precautions when dealing with anyone, whether online or in person.
You're welcome!
<When Emotion Goes Up, Logic Goes Down>
Yeah, I have only done one trade on here and it was great. It was a great feeling knowing that options like this are here for people that don't have alot of extra money to pay full retail value for devices. All well, hopefully in the future.
Im Hoping that this is the right place to post this if not please let me know and I will gladly move.
I will just start with some background info on how the idea formed. I bought a new laptop and after spending $1000, I wanted a case to protect it. I spent 3 days searching laptop cases and each time I found a case I thought I liked, I wanted to read the reviews from people who have already purchased and used it.
Well, one site that sold that case had no reviews, 2nd site (same case) had one review, 3rd site had 4-5 reviews. Then there are company's who review the cases as well, but Im not sure if I should trust those because they might or probably are being paid to say good things about it.
After 3 days of going site to site to read reviews on multiple different cases, I was frustrated. But I realized that the process is the same no matter what item Im looking for.
So my idea is to create an app, when opened, a person can type in the name of the item that they are looking for then post a review of it, or read through the reviews that other people may have posted, if no reviews have been posted the person can either post one themselves if they have the item during which they could post pictures of the item to accompany their review, or they can post a request for reviews of the item they are searching, which people can see at the bottom of the initial page below the search which requests scroll through. and above the search would be a scroll of recently reviewed items.
So its basically an app for consumers to post and/or read reviews of items they have or are interested in purchasing.
This idea now being spelled out, the only other thing I have is a name for it, and thats it. So... how would I go about to creating such a monstrosity. I have no knowledge on coding, so please use layman words.
Im willing to do the work and learn but I don't even know where to start, do I need software, hardware? I have not the faintest idea.. Please any help would be appreciated. Thank you

You need to learn Android Studio and Java Programming Language.
Android Studio is a software for developing android apps.
As to learning Java, I recommend that you use SoloLearn android app.
It contains tutorials for learning programming languages.
