The problem persists after running some seafoam through it. I tried cleaning the TPS, and while that usually solves the issue, it was a no-go this time. Since it's a sealed part, however, the contact cleaner may just not have penetrated enough. She also died on me the other day (idle get...

Sorry, I'm an idiot. 04 R6

Hey all, I just got my bike back from the shop (in Ottawa), since I have no tools or place to work on it here. They replaced the air filter, oil and filter, spark plugs, synced the throttle bodies. I've been out the last two days, and have found that the bike is stuttering under acceleration...

Jailbreaking, eh? What's the matter, phone not open enough for you? Feeling too restricted? I know this great little open operating system I could recommend... :D I kid, I kid!

Don't get me wrong: this is definitely not cool. That said, your issue is with Sony, not Google. Sony took the code, modified it, then stopped maintaining it for that device. Gingerbread has only been released a month and half or so, and as far as I know is only available on one device; the...

Couple things: you misunderstood part of this. You don't have to lose the screws. If you send your phone in for service, they will replace the old phillips screws for these new pentabular ones. Even if they don't NEED to remove them for the service. Second, a new phone coming out doesn't make...

Primary? This is my ONLY communication device. Well, I suppose I use a computer too, but I'm sure you do the same. Anyway, a few nice features in gingerbread, but I've only been using it for a few hours. My favourite (useless) feature? The screen power on and off animations. It does that...

A buddy of mine just built CM's gingerbread source this weekend. Apparently it was a nightmare to build. haha I'll probably flash it sometime today. I'll let you know how it is.

Where are you getting these quotations from? I've been reading a lot about CES the last few days (Ars technica, Techcrunch, gizmodo) and have been pleasantly surprised at the lack of apple news.

Gotta cite that stuff, bud.

Froyo was a huge leap. In my humble opinion, it should almost have been 3.0, not 2.2. I really can't speak to unlocking a motorola phone, as the steps would be different that on the nexus, which was remarkably easy. I'd have a look over at xda-developers, androidforums and at cyanogenmod.com...

I haven't been able to find anything decent. Actually stopped looking a few months ago. Upside is that the new version of google maps uses vector graphics, which means it can cache a lot more. If you're looking to navigate somewhere, as long as you generate your directions somewhere with a...

For the record, I think you completely missed the point of that video...It was demonstrating how annoying a computer without multitasking would be (having to constantly switch applications like on some phones), then going on to say that if you wouldn't buy a computer without multitasking, why...

This 5mb issue (5mb is a number I heard once; I know mine would stop loading, and 5mb made sense, though I never confirmed the number) was when I was with wind. Seems to be gone now that I'm with mobilicity. You can import your contacts via csv or vcard into google contacts, which can then...

Hey Firestart, can you do me a favour? Try looking at some larger (longer) youtube vids or something that requires a lot of data over a single tcp connection. Does your video stop loading at a consistent point (maybe around the 5mb mark)? Also, I don't think I need to tell you this, but just...

Now that's the kind of post that carries some weight. Another thing to note, however, is that while all phones apparently have GPS chips (for 911-related services), not all phones will allow software access to the GPS chip and are thereby restricted to cell-tower A-GPS location. It can be a...

re: boxee setup for the average user: http://www.boxee.tv/ http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/boxee.aspx Open source, no more difficult to setup than any other piece of media centre hardware.

I'm going to try very, very hard to explain this without sounding like an ***, and I'm honestly saying this to help you. I've noticed this same thing in several threads. You constantly post things wherein you take a condescending or downright derogatory tone, posting "facts" and saying that...

I'm not convinced, but that doesn't matter. At this point, firestart has two different people telling him two different things (albeit, one of us is saying A with nothing to back it up, and the other is saying B with first-hand experience) and seems like a smart enough guy that he'll do his own...
