Leapfrog LeapPad?

Does anyone have any good links for softrooting this device and were to get apps for it? I bought it for my nephew not knowing the apps were 20 bucks each.

its not android based, sorry.
and i google search'd, cuz i was a little curious, there's not even a whisper about porting android to this. :/ so, pretty much, you're out of luck, unless you want to post android to it all by yourself.

Kinda what i thought considering I couldn't find anything for it either.

What if every phone had vanilla android?

I just dont get why the manufacturers bother with spending so much money on developing a user interface and then keeping it relevant with the latest android versions.
People say that they do that to differentiate their phones. When I see samsung, HTC, SE, motorola and LG phones I can clearly distinguish them on hardware.
Does google not allow them to release a stock phone or what? Basically it will be like we have several different versions of a nexus phone. Look at LG what good does it give them to have their user interface? Nobody says anything good about their software, they are so late with updates. LG makes respectable hardware for the price but because of the software thing I will never consider their phone.
I honestly think it will actually give the manufacturers a competitive advantage especially struggling ones and the money they will save on software development they can perhaps use it to lower the prices or something.

The vanilla interface is a bit rough in my opinion, i'm glad my HTC has sense

i find samsung contacts and dialer much better than vanilla one, i really miss them in cm7

Alright, I will go over this issue again. The members of this community who like to hack and tweak their phone are the gross minority when it comes to the consumers. The average consumer does not understand the hardware or anything about the phone. They see a phone with a pretty clock that can open an app quickly. If the manufacturers didn't offer their personal touches, there would be nothing to differentiate themselves from their competition. Consider us lucky though, we have a great community offering us any flavor of Android we choose for our phones.

That's the reason why some people chose the pure google experience.You know the Nexus One, Nexus S, and now the Galaxy Nexus. It would be nice that other manufacturers would make phones without any costom UI and other things, and the updates would be rolling out from google over the air. Welcome to reality...?

This was a thread for general discussion, there are many threads at the forum with a "?" in the end. This is the second time it's happened I really dont get it. I wasnt merely "asking" something for me but just something for general discussion.

Yea, it is stupid. Some people don't understand the English language. The Q&A section is not meant for questions without a definitive answer...those questions are meant for discussion. Some of the mods are real geniuses though.

I think he just sees a question mark and moves it. Its happened to me before and it is kinda irritating.

Rather than having manufacturer skins forced down peoples throats, i'd like to see a unified Android Theme Changer integrated into the OS. Manufacturers could then release devices with their own selection of Themes, including an option for 'Vanilla'. That way everybody has a choice.
Any additional software should be released through the Market for those that want it. One Nexus release a year is not enough for those of us who like our Androids unadulterated.

Anybody know Bb torch 9850?

BB torch 9850. I work somewhere where they gave me one but I refuse to use it. I'm good with android and love everything about my 3d and all available stuff for it. Still rather a noobie but have alot of fun with rooting all phones near me. Is there anything of the sort for bb. Anything would be better than the way it is, been turned on once. Thanks everyone.

Alright techies, I've got a question for you?

So I've been suffering from the infamous Bionic connectivity issues as of late. I've called in for a few replacements and it looks like tomorrow will be my last one. So here's the conundrum...
My original Bionic was forever rooted way back when. Sure enough, with the most recent Bionic software update, .902, my USB just stopped working on this device. Works fine on the replacements, but with this one it just says "USB Device Not Recognized." Obviously I need to unroot this phone so I can send it back in.
Did some troubleshooting with a member from DF, we were able to remove root without having to plug it into the computer by deleting some files from the /bin and /xbin system folders. This was verified with root checker. HOWEVER, we are unable to remove the Superuser app. We tried a few things, like booting it into different modes and trying to uninstall, with absolutely no success. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the newest Moto drivers several times.
So my question is this...how can I remove an app like that without having to plug my computer into the PC? Please help me!!! I really don't want to take the risk of sending this in and being charged $500!

Fair enough, my apologies. But did you have to change "challenge" to "question?" The main purpose of this thread was to offer the devs something, from what I can find, has NEVER been addressed before. If I knew the first thing about smartphone development I would love an opportunity to be the first to answer something like this.
Can I at least remove the question mark at the end and add an elipses? The grammar nazi inside of me is starting to panic.
PS. Please understand I'm not trying to be difficult, just thought it might be fun for a dev who is tired of making ROMs and is maybe looking for something a little bit different...even an explanation of how it's impossible would work for me!

[Q] LG Optimus LTE P935, P930

So I have registered just so I could ask for help rooting the p935, which is essentially the p930. I am unable to post in the thread for this topic because I have fewer than 10 posts. (This must motivate people to post junk.)
I have used the suggested software (have tried 4 rooting programs) and cannot seem to root this piece of junk. To be fair, it is a formidable machine but it is useless to me without root. Never had such a hard time rooting any phone.
I obviously put it in debugging mode and installed the required drivers. Not an obvious issue.
Thanks in advance.
At end of my rope,
tq
