Well I love this phone but between the speeds, having to try different hacks and the even worse battery life. I'm going back tomy BJII at least for now.
I think that ATT will be revamping the radio, but until then I guess its going back to the store. I really like phone but its hard to rationalize the price I paid for the phone.
I'm really hoping they revamp the radio firmware or come out with some big new update for the phone
what issue are you having with the radio? is this the FM radio or the cellular radio?

Too bad its not working out for you. I personally think that the fuze is the best WM6 phone available at this time.
Stop crying seriously forever who wants to take it back fine. We all already have our touch pros. If you wanna stay on the cutting edge plan for setbacks. I think you neeed the iphone go bother them with worthless thread avout taking the phone back because everyday I read ohh whine... i'ma that the phone back TF3D is to slow or GPS lock is to slow somthing really its getting old.
No offense, but why do people feel the need to make a thread telling people they're returning the fuze? Are they trying to justify the return by posting a thread here or what? Obviously those of us who haven't returned it like our Fuze so far. Perhaps we should stick to more constructive threads so we can share our experiences to help make Fuze a better device for everyone, instead of making public announcements like this. Frankly, I don't think anyone cares if someone returns his/her Fuze and sticks to BJI/II/Tilt/miscellaneous.
Cuz I was bored and sso tired of doing work, needed something to break the stress. I know no one really cares but oh well you can delete if you want no biggie.
asingic Sorry to be a **** man but honestly it seems like people are threatening the forum with taking the phone back. My last post might have been a little harsh but I think that was the 3rd thread I opened that said they where going to take the phone back.
------------------
no worries ... its the internet...
what was more annoying was the iphone comment haha. I hate that thing never gave it a serious look HAHA
I understand what you meant. hell I hated the thread where people were saying .... ooooh the official date this and the official date that. I'll still be reading here probably posting
It does look like the phone performance may be more localized anyway be it the bjII, iphone or the fuze.

Don't be so defensive. Just because he's returning his Fuze, doesn't mean your phone is any less worthy. I, for one (apparently), like to know when someone is going to return, and why. It helps to create an informed consumer. If I wanted a completely biased opinion, i'd just go to the HTC or At&t website to get "the facts".

If it was a good review then yeah it would be a good post. But "Well I love this phone but between the speeds, having to try different hacks and the even worse battery life. I'm going back tomy BJII at least for now" The Speed of what? TF3D? What hacks? How bad is your battery life? And if it was 1 post it would be okay. I bet I can find I dozen posts with the same useless type of information in it that just end in I'm returning the phone.

Yes, because when you think ROAD you think "Lets talk a walk", moron. They can say its for walking, that doesnt mean people wont use it while driving. In fact, I'd wager the majority of its users will be driving.
Obviously, your brain was not made for THINKING, you know that thing where you make logical inferences based on the information present.
so im about to do it. been wanting a tablet for some time and as nice as the xoom looks for 1/2 the price this make sense.
can a newbie root? i dont know the first thing about programming. ive searched the forums, and i see roms, and all these things i dont even know what they are. TNT programs, which sound not so newb friendly lol....and i want to know if there is a basic root that i may be able to follow. root for dummies is what im looking for.
and also, if i screw this up can i revert back to the original way this thing was?
sorta nervous to order and not use it to the fullest potential but seems like without rooting its not worth a crap.
i know probably asked 100 times, but ive searched and just cant find basic rooting 101 concepts. read the faqs - nothing so straight forward that i found.
thanks in advance. if i find the support i need here which seems likely im going to order the viewsonic shortly
First, welcome!
And then...
Start here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
This was the post that helped me the most. Have you rooted and installed new ROMs on Android devices before? It's not difficult, but does require that every last instruction is read. Twice. And look at posts about people "bricking" their tablets to see what they might have done wrong, or what they had to do to fix their problems. Don't worry about rooting; I've rooted a MyTouch 3g, a TMobile Vibrant and this tablet and it was the easiest by far. I'd like to say that the stock software sucks, but I can't. I purchased this tablet because I knew I would be rooting and ROMing and only had about ten minutes in the store and ten minutes at home with the original software. It wasn't horrible, but I do know that Vegan 5.1 flies and is very stable.
READ READ READ and search your face off for your problems before posting. Many people frown on oft asked questions here. I see a lot of people writing about how easy it is to search to get your answer, but I'm not a fan of the XDA search function for many reasons. So, Google is your friend. When searching Google, be sure to state your issue clearly and concisely, and in as few words as possible. Oh, but do include "XDA" in your search, or "site:forum.xda-developers.com" if you want to only search the XDA Developers forum.
Happy modding!
(1) We don't mind newbies, although it's nice if they actually respect the hard work of the people here by pressing the shift button to capitalize where appropriate. It would also be appreciated if they don't use run-on sentences.
(2) We highly recommend against modding for people like you. Just turn it on, update what viewsonic has for you, and everything will run just fine. We recommend you play with the gtab for a while before taking the plunge.
(3) You don't need to know programming to root. This thread will give you step by step instructions on how to do the essential things of modding. These instructions are so easy even a cave man could do it.
(4) That said, again, their stock rom + update should be good enough for someone like you. I have 2 gtabs. I've modded one and kept the other one as is. Trust me, it's more than sufficient for your needs.
thank u!!! im going to review that. now thats a detailed step by step which couldnt be answered easily but somehow seems doable for a newbie thanks. brings me closer to ordering.
I somehow doubt you read everything I said.

goodintentions - I was thanking adampdx but appreciate your input as well. I read his reply and his link provided and at first glance it seemed helpful. With that said, I also appreciate you letting me know the stock VS GT is pretty good and perhaps I will leave it as is when I get it. People make it out to be like this thing is so unsable out of the box, which apparently isnt the case. I just want to be able to get to the market and download a few apps I like using on my droid pro phone, thats all. Additionally I will use capitals and try watching the run on sentences. I was just excited to post and get involved.

I think your whole thing is condescending, including that rant you posted in the General section about the "wooters". If you wanted to be helpful you could do a write up and review about the stock ROM and make suggestions of what to do to make it better. This singling out of a group of people is rude and dangerous. You create an environment that is hostile and discourages fresh ideas. There are always kinder words to use and gentler ways to guide people.

Not to mention there be members who may not use English as a primary language and therefore may not be familiar with all of its intricacies. Respect begets respect. You get more when you offer more.
Well, here is my thought on why people are giving it such bad reviews.
(1) They compared it to the ipad right out of the box. Yes, the stock UI isn't the greatest thing, but it's usable. And after the update, it should work just fine.
(2) People were expecting an ipad when they bought this device. This is why I've been repeating over and over that this ain't no ipad.
(3) People have money coming out of their ears, so they want the bests and greatests. The slightest disadvantage and they will make it sound like the tablet exploded or something.
(4) Which brings me to my next point. People like to exaggerate.
I've always been a simple person. I like to work with what I have. I also hate Apple products with a passion. I only own one Apple product. I got my ipod (30 gig one) as a gift years ago. I've been thinking for a while to look for something that is light weight so I could drag it along for work and other activities. My laptop seems like it weighs a ton some time. That said, after I've done the appropriate moddings and installed the apps I wanted, the viewsonic gtab seems like a dream come true for me. It works incredibly fast. I didn't buy this thing to watch videos and listen to music. I have my tv and ipod for that. That said, I really think viewsonic is sitting on top of a goldmine with this device. I don't know why they haven't done more to publicize it.

Oh, please, I can tell the difference between a non-engrish speaker and someone who's just lazy. I'm a non-native english speaker. In another thread, I mentioned that I was born in a house with a dirt floor and grew up with a 4 inch black and white tv. I wasn't kidding.

Well, I apologize if what I said offended some people. But what I stated was a fact. Because of all the exaggerated reviews of how god-aweful the stock UI and screen are, average people get the wrong idea. They feel that they have to mod the device the moment they get their hands on it.
All I'm suggesting people do is give the updated stock rom a chance. Give it a few days before they decide to take the plunge. There's really no prettier way to say it.

You don't have to be white to be racist or self-hating.
Ah, all of this being said, I do think this whole thing is funny and a giant waste of time. I've also been noticing that the forums seem sluggish, and I'm getting strange messages from the server from time to time about not being able to load forum pages.

Read the sticky in General. It has vids and all the informatiomn you need.
Best thing I can tell you, before you get flamed for that post, is read. Also, you need to be more specific with your issue. If you want someone to hand hold you through the process, your probably not going to find the help you are looking for. Reading and searching are your friends. I am not being mean in anyway. People have gotten flamed in the past for a post like that. First, you didn't say if you've already searched. Second, you mention very little detail of your problem. Third, you don't mention which rooting method you are using and where you are in the process. Just on the last point alone, I think you are trying to have someone walk you through the process. In which case, you don't need to root if you won't take the time to read, read, and read again, and try the process yourself. Not trying to jump on ya, just from your post it seems like you are not even trying to help yourself first. If you have a genuine issue, please, give us more detail to make an effort to help you.

So... The phone is useless as it is? Why would you buy a useless phone?
Because you didnt discover it was useless until it was too late, like, after 31 days of having it?
Don't blame the phone for your inability to do what 90% of the people in these sections of XDA managed to do just fine.
Now, maybe you should go do a little reading.
Then, if, after you've made an honest attempt to figure it out using the plethora of resources at your disposal here, you still run into problems, and are willing to provide a little more insight into the nature of your specific problem, people might be a bit more willing to lend a hand.
Good luck!
Man rooting an inspire is not that hard. You just need to follow directions. Read up on the root methods available watch the videos choose your preferred method read the tutorial and watch the video AGAIN then do it. 99% of the time it will work. I used the hack kit But ive heard bubbys works great too. My inspire was rooted 20 mins after I got it. But I read and watched the videos long before it arrived. It really isnt something you should just decide to do on a whim. You should really understand the process and what each individual step does before attempting.

Hes right,
The main part of being successful with these devices is everything he said, you really shoud read,read,watch whatever it takes to be totally sure about the process. You must be very careful if its your first time, and at the same time, ive learned, you cant let it intimedate you, it will be much harder and that much easier to mess up. If you do all these things and are still not sure or dont feel right about doing it, find somone close to you that can.

Well, for one thing, if by "omnipitant" you mean *omnipotent*, then you probably *really* meant *omniscient*, so I understand what you meant. I think.
What I don't understand, however, is why you think that someone who doesn't know how to root shouldn't be expected to know how to search for information about rooting.
Perhaps you might better explain to me your logic?
Ok, your right. I should have been more direct.
By "omnipotent" i ment -all knowing.
My point is. People will never stop asking for help on this site, it will just never happen, nor will they ever stop being ignorant, ie. Not reading enough not following directions. I understand it gets old, but its one thing if hes new, its another if this is the 5th time hes been told. I just think you took the wrong approach at teaching him, there is such a thing as positive reinforcement, hes already frustrated, treating him like hes an idiot will get us all no where, well, most of us. We were all new at some point or another
Now, what does not seem even a tad bit logical to me is, getting offended over a damn cell phone

Sad thing is though if he searched he would have seen everyone else getting flamed for this exact same question and type of post.

This they didn't know how to search and cant get past the clutter thing isn't an excuse.
coming from the droid incredible and hero before it.. the inspire is alittle more difficult to root. but if u say take 30 mins out of your day its not that bad.. just stay focused and read and go slow and you will be on your way..

Now you guys know him alot more than I do, I even think hes helped me with a few things, one or two of those thanks are prolly from me. but if everyone really feels this way, ill prolly stop defending noobs then, unless its worth the time.

It probably looked like I was jumping on the guy because I was. A little. Thin skins don't do well, here, though.
There's nothing wrong with defending someone, when appropriate, I've done it I think, maybe a total of 3 or 4 times, all cases where a user was unfairly blamed for something or was made to feel like they weren't a worthwhile contributor or called a name because they weren't able to answer someone's question to their satisfaction.
All I'm saying is that XDA is less noob-centric than other forums. That's not to say noobs shouldn't come here to learn...I lost my basic noobness here (and I say basic, 'cause I don't know half the **** some people here do) ... Just that there's an expectation to fulfill some prerequisite familiarization with one's device, and to be at least a little proficient in problem-solving on one's own before posting.
Even though it took forever to get from China, this 500 GIG SD card works like a charm! Got it for 15 bucks from an app called "Geek". Grab it on the Play Store. Check out my screen shots! Works perfectly using TEKHD'S awesome Note 4 ROM!
Why does it say three different sizes in the pictures? Load up more than 200gb of stuff and see what happens.

You will be lucky to get 64 g of stuff on it. Put it to the test!

That's because it comes in 3 different sizes for 3 different costs

Agreed, good luck with your brand new 500gb microsd when SanDisk just announced a 200gb. Hope you keep a backup of your important files and spend some time reading how easy is to fake the storage of flash disks.

Well...I had NO IDEA that that happened here...wow! I assure you, I wouldn't treat folks like that here. I felt it was a pretty cool deal. Seems to work flawlessly. I even posted a photo to show it was a Class 10 device...ahhhhh THAT'S why someone asked to do so with "xda" written on a piece of paper! Got it! It makes sense now...I thought I had done something wrong or something. No..no spamming here, just honest, innocent sharing, that's it!

Nah your fine. I purchased this 64gb card off ebay a few years back and it wouldn't hold over 4gb. Like someone else said you should do a SD card backup monthly or bimonthly just incase your card stops working. I use a Sandisk extreme 128gb card and make backups, way to much info to loose on a faulty card.

Why all this vitriolic hatred toward obtaining something and sharing on this forum! The haterade is jus flowing! You so obsessed with a person NOT having what YOU don't think has value,and then putting it down, challenging them to do what you think can't be done? Go away, troll! Tell you what, YOU go buy it, and test it YOURSELF! Since you're so gal -darn sure it can't! I've wasted enough time responding to you! Folks just be HATIN'! GO HATE ON SOMETHING ELSE!

Easy there psycho. We want to know if it is legitimately 500GB. Thus me simply asking you to try that and see what happens.
The solution for you is simple. Don't make outlandish claims and cry and wine when your asked to back it up. Seriously get some help. Get a dog. See someone. You getting this worked up just because someone asked you to test your claim is insane.

Whatever, dude...and that's not how you came off. Screw what you wanna know! Then after I check your ass and tell you to quit hatin', you come off even more of an a-hole with insults and B.S! Outlandish claims??? What claim did I make you moron??? I posted something, that's all. I didn't make a claim. You should crawl back under that troll rock you climbed out from under, and quit talking [email protected]! Again, if you're that sure of what it is and what it can hold...GO BUY ONE! Then go post your own results. Leave me alone! Oh...got a wife, got a dog, don't need help, have a business; now go mind your own!

Aaaand you proved my previous point. This is a place to help people. Not to take out your life problems on the users. I countered your claim in one sentence. You blew up. I reminded you again expanding slightly and you blew up even more. I fear for your dog and wife. I hope you don't take it out on them as much as you do to the users of XDA. Go do some yoga or something.
Can a mod just close this thread or something.
i dare you to test it and post the screenshot of the result..
