First of all let me totally apologize for this thread. It's not the norm in these forums, I see, but am unsure where else to turn for help.
What all of you are doing and talking about here is all above my head. Rooting, bricked devices, software this and that, mods, etc. *whoosh!* - right over my head.
What I do have is a hardware issue. Does anyone have any idea if there is a site I can go to or somewhere I can search for HDX 8.9 parts? You can imagine the stuff I get when I put in "HDX 8.9 Fire speakers" anywhere. Bluetooth external speakers galore! I've found one site that seems to have the part I need, but it's out of stock.
I seem to have a speaker gone bad on my HDX and need to replace it.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Again, let me apologize for this thread and being one of those drive-by posters. Not sure where else to turn!
Thank you so much in advance for any help!
Steven
Answering your post is way over my head... HDX speaker, parts..? *woosh*

Hands up, I have to be honest, this thread is basically a duplicate of one I already started elsewhere but it's just gotten buried in that section and I doubt I'll ever get any help with it.
As I said in the other thread, I'm wondering if it's possible to embed switches/toggles for functions like bluetooth into a live wallpaper.
I mean, I know that live wallpapers can respond to touch input, I'm just not sure if they can be used to control other functions within the handset itself.
If that is possible, the next problem is that I have no idea how to create a live wallpaper.
Any/all suggestions, advice, etc would be greatly appreciated.
Quick bump in case anyone can help...

Top two work best bud, good luck! That would be pretty cool if you incorporate that though.
Because, of course, I'd never thought to actually try finding out the answer myself(!)
Pretty much every link on the first page of that search I've already looked at.
But answers aren't hugely forthcoming, especially about being able to control the bluetooth status, and the guides aren't the clearest for someone who has no idea what he's doing like myself.
I asked here in the hope that someone with some expertise might be able to help.

Try that
Thanks for the link, I'll look into that.
One guy mentions 'livemake' which I've not encountered so far.
The second one just uses 'Custom Creator 2.6' which I'm already familiar with and isn't remotely capable of what I'm trying to do - it can only produce basic animations.
I'll definitely chase that up though, thanks.
As it stands right now with the current state of hardware and software hacking on the Nook Tablet, what are the chances that bluetooth will be activated? I have been reading the Nook Tablet forums and it appears that there has been some very good progress made at cracking this thing wide open, so I was just wondering. Maybe we're at that point already and I've just missed something.
rodorr
I had a link somewhere how to do it...
I'm still totally noob to all this, and simply haven't gotten smart enough to try it.
Ok, I can't post the link because I don't have 8 post. I PMd it to you.
Will you PM it to me too?
Thanks!
Done, and again I say - it's currently over my head. I spent all weekend rooting my Nook Tablet, yet feel so clueless.
I would very much be interested in that info. please pm me also.
Thanks
Since many posters have few posts and can't link, If someone can PM me so I can link it in here for everyone else?
Well what i have found so far is this: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/wireless/bluetooth.html#SettingUp
I purchased a Lenovo IdeaPad tablet. I've rooted two phones easily, no problems. This thing is being testy! I literally spent all night trying to use "SuperOneClick", which freezes every time. Apparently this is a large problem, with people posting on the shortfuse website about it, but no word at all from that developer (too bad...sounded promising). Then, I utilized the thread search, but I only received, oh I don't know, ~70 pages for the same thread, which provided no help whatsoever. But all I want to do is root it so that I can put an app on it to recieve a bluetooth internet tether. No custom Rom's or nothing. I'm here because not only is this place the standard for Android apparently, but the shortfuse page also links back here as well. If this is in the wrong spot to ask, please move accordingly, but there is no spot in the tablets for the IdeaPad. Thanks in advance for your help!
Wow. I thought something special about this place! But the "noob" fixed it himself. Thanks for the load of a lack of help.

If you noticed in my post, I said I did try "super"oneclick (and yes with all appropriate drivers) for a whole night. As I mentioned, I figured it out myself. But at least you did try, can't say that about anyone else...for that you receive my thanks.
Lenovo thinkpad a-1
I have the same problem tried oneclick and always stops at # 7 waiting on device.
how did you finally manage to get root? any help would be appreciated.. I have also rooted several HTC android phones but this thinkpad is kicking my butt.
hey guys,
i recently bought a commtiva N700 off ebay from a guy that said his son had entered the pin too many times and now the screen wont turn on.
thinking i may be able to grab a quick bargain i bought it for £30,,
i got it this morn and the device certainly seems to be bricked. when i press any and all combinations of buttons, nothing happens, when i plug it in to the USB cable, the led goes solid red and then flashes red at me..
have i just bought an expensive paper weight or is there anyway of reviving the tablet from death??
thanks!!
So this is def a brick now then? What does the flashing red led mean? Any ideas?

Hmmm, this topic really doesn't belong here - more of a general question ... perhaps a MOD want to move/merge or close this thread as I just pointed another poster in the "general" direction on where to start troubleshooting - might have to use the flash the factory ROM again with their provided utility to stock condition, without root - assuming it's NOT a hardware issue & not covered by factory warranty (or expired already)
For newbies not familiar with Android OS and various how-to's, it's dangerous to try DIY fixes as it will truely turn a "soft" brick into a dead paper-weight brick that's unrecoverable.
My suggestion for where to start is linked here - please post your followup questions & findings in the other thread, it's easier for me to read - for everyone to share AND learn, and other newbies to search for possible solutions as they discover this sub-forum, thanks in advance -

This is specific to the Vpad 7 only or its generic/off-brand equivalent, not other similar Viewsonic devices that I do NOT own nor familiar with.
Many thanks for your help.. i wasn't sure if the general area was the place to use or not.. in general I find the Dev area has more knowledgable and savvy users, although i can understand why they'd get annoyed with Plebs like me trying to answers to inane questions..
i'll follow up with your advice and if a friendly mod could either move or kill this thread it would be greatly appreciated..

Sirgeekalot, I posted a few thoughts on what you folks might want to try next in the other post in this section - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359605
It take time to digest all these info & to try it out, but do let us know what you come up with, if any - so that the rest of us can point out the directions on what possibly steps to take next. Good luck & please try to post in the "other" post next as it will be far easier for everyone - it's a rather small circle of users around the world, compared to iPads and Samsung Galaxy's, etc. so the more we share together, the more we learn ... Thanks & believe me, I understand & share in your frustration in having an expensive "brick" in hand.
Hi All,
I'm sorry to re-post this again, but I haven't seen anyone here to say me it is possible or even completely impossible - just forget about it. I will leave this issue forever if someone comes up with the latter. But no one has commented on this so far.
Please find the link to my situation here -

Your input, assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Do not make more then one post about an issue.
As for the issue you are gonna end up factory resetting. No way around it.
