Anyway to stop the verizon media page when mounting phone to PC?

This is really down right annoying. Every single time I plug my phone in to the usb port, a Verizon Media page loads. Is there anyway to stop this?

I'm guessing the search button was broken?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775003

Right click on the moto icon and change the option there.. its in the bottom right task bar
I even called verizon and ask them WTF and they are like "i never heared of this before" and the even transfered me to level 2 and they still didnt know

Well, if you had used the search button and found all of my posts, you would know that not all of them were smart-ass responses.
This one of course, is. Dumb-ass.

I should rephrase that all of the post I've read, which is probally 70% lol

hey dude seriously though, one night i spent hours trying to search for something before i made a post. and it doesn't help that one must wait thirty seconds before searching again, and low and behold someone already posted a thread about it. the only thread in the whole forum i'm guessing, but yet i wasn't able to find it only because my words were not exactly that of the original thread. My point being is that this is a cool website where people go to help each other out. and the only thing i find more annoying than multiple threads resembling the same subjects, is the one person trolling around slapping links to other threads while being unnecessarily rude about it. if this is really all the better you can do to be polite in this forum then maybe you should switch to apple and continue to hold yourself above others and have it be accepted by the elitist peers you would gain. other than that do the world a favor and play nice. please.

[Q] Louder volume hack?

Anyone know if one exists for Tab?

Search a little, Amigo.

For the time it took you to type out for him to search, you probably could've just answered.

Searched for half an hour, 'AMIGO.'
Honestly, it's guys like you- bent on trolling and pointing out the search function- that litter these forums up even more than those who don't search at all. I'm aware of the search function. I didn't post out of laziness. Clearly I couldn't find what I was looking for or I wouldn't have posted.
Do something USEFUL with your time, troll.

Thanks again for the direction, unfortunately I have a T-Mobile US Tab so I have no dialer to enter this settings menu through. Any other suggestions? Also, the low volume I'm looking to fix is in the media player- when I watch movies, other media, the volume seems incredibly low...

Install euro firmware to get the dialer and then the modem switcher to get call/3g data functionality.

I had the same issue(s) with volume. This solves the problem, with changing sound volumes in speakers and headset. Flash as stated above, your problem will be solved.

In fact the Search function doesn't work,at least on my Galaxy tab. Hen I clidk on Search this forum, a window pops open and when I click in it to bring up the keyboard,it disappears! So I go to advance search,where at least I can type something but it always says no results found!

I've been avoiding flashing my sgt, not that I don't have the ability but more-so because I don't want to have to set everything back up again.
However, after reading this thread, it's another reason to flash me thinks

I just reminded you of a forum rule, you probably didn't read. I said search in a friendly way, and did not use any insult.
I posted a volume fix for the tab, so I know if you searched, you could find it. What litters the threads are the same questions repeatedly asked by people who don't do their work, and the people who argue and insult.
If you disagree with someone, you should say so, and stay away from insults.

I agree with you. The search process is pathetic. I always go to the pc when I look for something on xda, because its so slow or non-existant on the tab.

XDA to go offline officially on JAN. 18th 2012

I guess xda is planning to officially go offline on purpose on JAN 18th to help petition against SOPA. The only way we can help get xda back online is by getting involved in the fight against SOPA by joining the petition process.
As far as I know this only applies to the U.S., so if you don't live in the U.S. you should have nothing to worry about.
More information about xda's goal here:
http://www.xda-developers.com/annou...8th-at-8am-you-can-help-bring-us-back-online/
More information about SOPA here:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Online_Piracy_Act
Just thought I would point this out to raise awareness of the situation.

Good deal man. Should be paying attention to this, and doing there part.

I'm glad to see xda doing this, I already been signed a petition but way to go xda.

Well if I don't see you guys on here again it's been a pleasure j/k I have faith that this petition will get through and am also glad xda is doing this. SOPA is way out of controll and could probably threaten to shut down xda for silly reasons if it gets passed. I will definately help to fight this.

Great. Shutdown the site as a protest for your own political beliefs. Great way to get everyone to go to other sites (if it were shutdown for more than a few days).

The internet has been around for 20+ years. **** like this comes up every 2 years.

We'll see what happens. Sopa is a pretty deal nothing like ever before that gives the gov the right to shut down basicly any website they want for suspected copywrite. I don't think xda or other websites would fight against it unless they felt threatened by it but who knows.

Lol, let me know if you need testers for anything but it's kinda hard to test patches on a broken repo source. Message me on git sometime and we'll have some convos on there.

Lol, yeah I haven't been on talk anymore much just was busy with life stuff for a long time. Still kinda am which is why I don't have much time usally to do much for development purposes. You know "****" is always interesting on xda (never a dull moment). I think it is about to get more interesting with SOPA. I just tweeted @htc and @htcdev about where they stand with devs distributing their "non" open source software (exluding the kernel). I want to know if they plan on attacking sense rom devs or not for distributing their software. AOSP roms may be the only future for android devs. Anyways sent you a request on talk.

[Info]Can't use Megaupload anymore, shut down by feds

I'm pretty upset that megaupload was shut down by the feds. I had a very important rom uploaded on there and now I can not access it. Rom devs if you have used this site to upload your rom(s) to, your pretty much screwed:

Yes this is total BS. It just proves that the powes that be aren't interested in following the same guidelines they set forth for others. This particular action isn't just an infringement of rights, it's a clear abuse of power. They have no interest in fair and just. This is a clear indicator that if we let them continue down this path, one day we shall all be asking for permission to use our once freedom of speech. They hide their attack of our rights by saying that certain individuals were pirating. But in reality it's the same as confiscating your home, and every house in your neighborhood. Because a person three blocks over might be stealing cable. In essence it is downright ludacris.

The FBI site didn't even go down, basically, they're not as amazing as they thought. In a way I want to see them prevail but it's inhumanly possible, I can only imagine that they'll eventually be found and arrested, sparking conversy and if anything that'll light the fire for the fight against these bills, and overall a new outlook on human rights.
Might prove me wrong though

They were shut down but they(the gov) got it up and running shortly after

Yup, the whole reason they attacked megaupload was because of all the sites like this one protesting against SOPA. Hello even google protested against it. It just goes to show how much of a bully our government can be when people speak their minds. It's like them saying "you don't have rights to free speech or to decide what we the fed government do" or "we make the laws not you the people".

Sending an attack directly to fbi.gov is really dumb and childish. It's also a great way to get caught. I'm pretty sure they'll get traced back pretty quickly.

Yeah but the problem is most of them are located in other countries hiding behind proxies. And a lot of isp's don't want to co-operate, and tech they don't have to if they are in certain countries. That's why they call themselves anonymous because it's really hard to find them. Trust me they've gotten smarter since the last time people got arrested. I've done my research on it.

The youknowwho everyone is referring to is you, just to let you know. I will not reply to you again and add you to ignore because I know who you are and don't want to trail any more threads off topic. I can tell that that post is intended to just cause more drama because you are desperate for attention. This post did not contribute to this thread at all (and neither did mine really, but I am replying to another post). If you actually posted something useful that pertains to the thread you are saying it in after searching the internet and getting a knowledge of the subject, I wouldn't rant. The only posts I have seen you post are insulting other users, such as "it is all of the old people" and "marcusant is insulting other users". If you are truly this hypocritical and are truly new even though you seem to reference to events that have happened long before you joined, I would be surprised. I will try to not reply and try to ignore any more posts by AdjectiveAnimal or any other troll that seems to use the exact same phrases. The reasons behind my insulting (it really wasnt insulting), was to show you what you are saying to other users in the forum. I am really confused as to why you would cause this much drama on a PPC development forum. I would be less mad if you actually contributed positively to the community. I hope that you read this post entirely. Please do not respond (I am talking to everybody) as it will bring this thread more off course. I see that you are already banned. I hope that if you do make a new alternate account that you actually attempt to contribute. I'm sorry for any thread jacking or additional drama. Have a nice day.
Now for a real reply. I find it odd that they are able to sue for data throttling that everyone has noticed and known about for a while. It still effects android phones and probably dumbphones with 3g. This is one reason I chose sprint. But I do bet that the throttled speeds are faster than Sprint's 3g on a good day.
