Good news, if you ask me.

However, if you purchase the 750-AAHC, do make sure that you can return it for a refund. The 750-AAHC would not work or respond at all with my Dell Venue 8 7840 tablet. Works with a bog-standard capacitive stylus.

I purchased a 750-AAHC and it works perfectly. Notice that appropriate software is needed such as Squid. It really actually works, palm rejection works, there are no interferences of any kind.

Thanks for that - didn't realise anything else was needed. Fortunately, or unfortunately as the case may be, I managed to return mine for a refund.
Somebody else told me operability depends upon the revision of 750-AAHC that you get, but I had no way to verify this. I think my packaging said A00, but can't check now.

That is good news but i just chatted with a dell agent and he said he had no idea about it

Good to know, I love my 7840 regardless....best tablet I've ever owned. I'll probably buy another one if another Dell refurb deal comes along.

I still had hopes back then...

MC3 errors?

First off, no warez please.
I'm getting a bunch of account based problems. With the exception of the reported sensitivity problems when aiming (no big deal for me, I still get kills).
Basically this.

My match data is off, I've played close to 10 matches and it says 3, and that I've only won 1 match, and lost zero out of the 3 (never tied..).
I almost never get credited after a match, I've lost about 20k so far because when I exit the matches after I'm finished the gold isn't there.
My K;D counts are way off, it should be higher - and my match history shows me playing matches I haven't played (only play alert & divide).
Plus my level 51 account was reset to level 1 when I started.
I don't mind playing it just for fun, but I can't even get to the point where I can buy a better gun or skills/equipment so I don't die as much.
Do you have the game on other device and does it do the same? I think this is more server related.

Never did this on my tf101, but that was using an unmodified apk for an a500 on HC.
I don't have an answer to your problemo....but do you mind me asking how you got it on the TF201? I know you purchased it on another device so you did pay for and own it...but does it just work on the Prime or does it need to be modded?

Do we have any DEV interested in joining the force?
This would be really slick. Sounds like they're making it pretty straightforward for devs to get working once Samsung decides to allow it. Let's hope they do!

Some people have already had success running Ubuntu on the Galaxy Note. It's not an official build so it won't be as tight as the one Canonical has running on the Atrix, but it's a pretty promising start.

hmm... not quite
that one is different
that one is really running Ubuntu in Note or whatever phone you have
the new one is HYBRID
you are still running Android, but at the same time it's running Ubuntu
so when you do things in Android or Ubuntu, both sides updates immediately
and the phones automatically switches back between a Desktop or a phone as you dock / undock the phone

Does anybody have any information about the development of this for the i717? I haven't been able to dig up how this hybridization process works. if i had access to the sources that cannonical came up with for the atrix prototype I'm fairly certain it should be a direct port.
it strikes me particularly odd that cannonical would keep this technology closed source given how open ubuntu generally is.
please, anybody with info, give a shout...
I know that this thread hasn't been posted in for a while, but I'm very interested in the functionality that it represents. I'm rather curious to know why there isn't a greater amount of pursuit of this from either user demand or dev perspectives.
I'm interested in any new information anyone can provide!
Thanks!
I wonder how many people are running some version of Ubuntu right now. I've been using it for a few years now and would loooooooove to see my phone and laptop be an extension of each other!

Broken camera, what happens now?

Sooo... will the warranty still cover this?
Just a couple of hours ago just when I received the dongle(took longer then a month, but I can't complain ) I randomly tried GPS Essentials Camera feature and whaddya know? It doesn't work anymore. I think the camera just pop'ed from the board or something, but how? this thing is way to expensive to throw it anywhere like some nokia device. I've been so careful with it, sure I have some scratches here and there but I had nothing like this before...

Common problem. Search. RMA only choice.
Well I didn't notice anything like this to roll around in the forums so I'll ask here: Can I fix it myself maybe? or can't I because of some warranty stickers in the way?

As I can guess, you can't fix it completely by yourself. My tablet has the same problem and it is now in service centre. Waiting for the results.(Best variant is receiving it on Wednesday).

In fact, if you have warranty card, you can try and send it to your service centre. If it won't help, try to get your money back.

I have two cases to give away (You pay shipping)

I ended up not liking my Nexus 6, unfortunately I had already ordered two cases. I live in the western states and whoever wants to pay shipping can have the cases for free (Or at least nearly free, I just don't want to lose anymore money on them so you pay shipping and they are yours.) Shoot me a PM and just send shipping over PP and they are yours, I ended up getting a completely different phone so I have no use for them.

[Q] There is something wrong with the SCREEN!

Hi guys !
I have a big problem here please help me ........
I just bought a Fire HDX 8.9" from Amazon.com.
After a couple days, I found there is something in my screen.
It's like couple of super-tiny-red-dash-matrix, you have to watch the screen very carefully to see those things.
They look like the Attachment picture below, and they show more clearly in white background.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
They are actually smaller and more blurred than the picture shows. And when I change the angle between the device and my eyes, the matrix will move up-down.
So, when I found this problem, I contacted Amazon and Replaced the device.
BUT, the Second device they sent to me, has the SAME problem:crying:!!!!!!!!!!
This situation very very confuse me. I just wonder is there any fellows have the same problem with me ? And what should I do?
MY device: Fire HDX 8.9, 8.9" HDX Display, Wi-Fi, 64 GB - Includes Special Offers.
(I'm a new international student here, so please forgive me about the bad language.)
Thank you all if there is any help or advises.
should I take a third shot?

Which firmware is on it? Did you rooted kindle, put some other recovery on it, than stock? Using safestrap and running nexus on extra slot?
No? Then that could also means, that there is some faulty batch of Apollos (bad screens or faulty HW) devices in Amazon storages, so you can end with faulty device again ... Or not. What you do, is up to you... :good:

Thanks for the reply.
No, I have not done any thing about the kindle. It is definitely the hardware problem.
I just wanna check other's kindle to see whether you guys have this problem or not. It turns out not.
I brought it when Amazon has the Valentine's Promotion. 64G ROM just need $299, I think it is a great offer. But......:crying:
I will contact Amazon tell them what I have found, and good luck for me........:silly:

Try putting kindle in airplane mode see if that fixes even try switch off WiFi try it may be your picking up some sort of signal noise worth a try.
