One may never know what you do when you are asleep....my girlfriend once found me in the bathroom brushing me teeth with shampoo in the middle of the night. I never ever knew I was a sleep walker, until I got caught. Had she not woke me up I would definitely have not remembered that, lol. What an awful taste that left. So maybe you did a little sleep/drunk texting in the middle of the night? Or maybe you do indeed have a weird virus or something....as others have asked, do you use pirated apps?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Hmm I don't think I am either...maybe I'll have to tape myself, cuz sometimes I wake up with bruises, awkward, yes.

But yes, download the av anti virus and check for them, cuz it seems to be a virus.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 12gage:
I have a few "less than expensive apps", two antivirus sweepers, kids who were asleep, and wife status I won't comment on as she may be monitoring, and recently flashed a kernel
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Lol, the "man" cracking down on ya? xD
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Yes, had she not found me, I would have woke up with the most horrid and confusing taste in my mouth, lol. (well, I did, but at least I knew where the taste originated from)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Hey...at least it wasn't something more toxic. But she came in handy, so +1 girlfriend. :) Else wise, who would come to the Q&A rescue squad?

Ha, yea thankfully it wasn't more toxic, for sure! I'd wake up with no teeth! The rescue squad, lol. Is that the assigned title?

To the OP: If that happened to me, I'd be a bit freaked out, and probably would wipe everything completely. Calks format all.zip and everything. Reinstall the rom fresh, and start from scratch. This time, being more cautious of the apps you choose to install. I'd be thinking it's maybe from one of the pirated apps. Unless it was just a case of sleep texting, haha. But if you're sure it's not, then I'd wipe everything and start over. I'd be a bit sketched out I think...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 12gage:
I guess I'll see if it was just a gilch in the Matrix or if I have a definite problem and have to wipe...I hate starting from stratch. thanks for the advise, just wanted to see if it was common (as i find with most of the dumb **** my phone does, I come here and find out I wasn't the first) today i guess i was ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Lol, then we'd have to call you k2toothless xD And perhaps..lol There are acouple of frequent users I do see here helping, you being among them.

And I agree, you should wipe everything and start over.

SwiftKey has released their tablet version for beta testing. You can sign up for an account at www.swiftkey.net/vip to be a part of the beta testing program.

I signed up for the SwiftKey Vip account and was confirmed within 5 minutes and was able to download the beta right away. I am running Calkulins rom with clemsyns latest kernel and was able to get it installed. Once you install it you need to go into the language and keyboard settings and then to the swiftkey settings and install a language pack before attempting to use it or it will force close on you. As of right now I think I will be sticking with thumb keyboard as my primary keyboard though as swiftkeys keys are a little bit small for me.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] pc2828:
Thank you, registered and received login almost instantly, using new keyboard to type this.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Butch1326:
madj1,

I like the neon (HC looking) keyboard theme.

Although, it took almost a day for the administrator to approve my access to the forum. Otherwise, I think it was worth getting. Thanks!!!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] setsudaj:
After the beta, will they lock the app and require purchase like on other android devices?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
What's different?

Can someone list the differences between the version that is in the Market now and this "tablet" version? Screencaps would be great too.

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] manikin13:
Rapidly has become my favorite

On Sunday Amazon App store had the paid std swiftkey for free. I installed it, downloaded the language pack, and within 2 days it has become my keyboard of choice.

See attached screencaps of the version, and features
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
Anyone? What is the difference between the tablet beta Swiftkey and the current Market version? I was hoping they would divide up the keyboard like the TnT keyboard so that my thumbs won't have to hyper-extend to get at the center keys.

I've been using the Market version for about a week now and honestly for me it's not all that great. The word predictions are cool and work about 60% of the time but if I have to type the entire word it's awkward for my thumbs to reach the center keys. And I have pretty big hands; I can't imagine how much more awkward it would be for folks with smaller hands.

Between the TnT keyboard, the Swype keyboard, and the Swiftkey keyboard I would have to say my preference is in that order at the moment (TnT, Swype, and Swiftkey).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] manikin13:
I find the swiftkey to be similar to TNT western, with arrow keys (a must for me), works better in portrait mode than TNT western, I like the android keyboard but was using the notion ink keyboard exclusively as it had easy access to the arrow keys,

I use a standard 3-4 finger typing method so don't have a thumb reaching issue, needless to say the tab is propped up (inclined) when I type.

Swiftkey beta

I ran the Swiftkey beta on my Droid1 and when it came out of beta they sent me an email telling me I could upgrade for free.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jorijn:
Hello fellow XDA members,

Currently residing on Android, I'm thinking about making the switch to WP7 using a HTC 7 Trophy. http://www.htc.com/www/product/7trophy/overview.html

I would like to know the pro's and cons about wether to make the switch. I'm basically tired of Android and rather not have an iPhone.

Thank you for your time.

Jorijn.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Crimson Lotus:
I highly suggest you get some hands on experience w/ the OS rather than asking for Pro's & Con. It is something you need to experience for yourself. See if your carrier could let you demo one.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jorijn:
I could drive up to a store which sells these HTC phones with WP7, this however gives a quick impression rather than experiences from (power-)users. Thank you for your help though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tanneji:
I made the switch a month or so ago. I have loved it. I had one of the Samsung Galaxy S phones and got a Samsung Focus from a buddy of mine. I love it. I was swapping sim cards for a while not sure of which I liked better but after about a week of that, I just left it in the WP7 cause I like it much more. It's mainly just more cohesive. I'm just sick of tinkering with the Android and having constant lag no matter what. I have begun using my Android as a media player for car trips, etc simply because it's easier to get movies on it. Music etc is much better on the WP7 from organization to sounds quality. Just get a little hands on time with it. It's still a work in progress but I have been using it great joy and looking forward to future updates. With Android I NEEDED the updates hoping they would fix some killer flaw (like the GPS not ever working).
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
Here's my take as a power user on iOS, WM6.5, WP7, and Android:

Here are the draw-backs of WP7 as compared to Android and iOS.

1) no 3rd party multitasking till a year or so when the Mango update comes out

2) not as many (or enough IMO) apps/games

3) The facebook app sucks royally as it's laggy and has a terrible UI (again, just my opinion, not really important if you're not a facebook junkie)

4) You can't change the UI much at all right now or for the foreseeable future.

5) Various bugs on certain phones such as camera shutter sound, random reboots, market download failures, etc...

Now, having said that the NoDo update apparently fixes things like number 5 to some extent. The UI really is fun and sleek. The app store is building up every day and developers seem to like WP7 except the lack of APIs at times. It's a new experience which quickly grows on you and if you are tired of Android this really is a nice alternative. It is still at a growing infant stage but for a new OS release it's actually pretty damn impressive. The built in facebook integration is really cool if you're into that, and I really do like the Live Tiles, although I really wish I could modify the UI more.

Apps run smoothly for the most part, although not as smooth as iOS, but still really great. Xbox live games are getting better and better and

I'll admit that I've come off as a WP7 hater at times, but I guess it's more my annoyance at some people claiming it's the best thing since sliced bacon and some of the lack of features of WP7 personally I can't get around. But as long as you go into it knowing what it can and can't do it's honestly not a bad buy and I think you'll enjoy the experience, just know that it does have some limitations.

iOS is pretty cool because you can theme it in a million ways and the apps support and smoothness overall, as well as things like multitasking and being able to put your apps in folders (I hope MS implements that at some point, I hate having my apps just floating in the right menu).

Android is cool but you already know what it can and can't do and seem to be tired of it.

WP7 is a great experience, I guess I am just too impatient for a fully featured OS which is a pretty unrealistic hope when the OS just came out.

edit:

almost forgot, Netflix streaming is a HUGE plus on WP7 over Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] >On_the_way_to_the_toP<:
WP7 works really well on my omnia 7. its fast as hell, its beautiful, no laggs, no obvious bugs but. too much restrictings, its just totally unflexible.

after 2 weeks i sold my omnia 7 and went back to my 2years old nokia 5800.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
My suggestion would be to wait a year, minimum, before jumping to a WP7 device. MS is screwing all early adopters by not holding to their statement that updates will be done by them and not the carriers. There has yet to be one single update for the majority of WP7 devices, and updates were expected months ago.

WP7 is buggy with system freezes requiring reboots, market freezes requiring reboots, dead volume issues and so forth. I highly recommend staying with Android for the time being or going to an iPhone. Maybe in a years time, once MS has shown its nature, then consider a WP7 device.

WP7 devices are great right up front and in the beginning of ownership. But they become very displeasing as time goes by.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
Very well said, and the fact that you own an HD7, an HD2, and an iPhone4 means you at least have some great comparisons and experience enough with different devices to opine intelligently on it.

I think when you get an opinion from someone who owns/owned WP7/Android/iOS/WM6.5 (i too have all of these) you can get a fuller picture. WP7 was freaking AWESOME the first couple of weeks I had it but the limitations do manifest themselves. In a couple of years I think it will be very polished and great to own, but you just want to do some serious research before you drop funds on a phone you may seriously regret, that's all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
I used WP7 for about 3 days on my HD2 before flashing back to my 6.5/android combination.

I have to say that I loved the wp7 experience and the main reasons I flashed back to 6.5 were because I wasn't able to use WP7 on a native device.

I'm still undecided about where I'm going to go with my upgrade in a months time, WP7 or android.

That said, the points already raised about it still being rough around the edges are very true.

But hey, you could always sell it and buy an android device if you didn't like it....

Sent from my fingers to your face...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ryude:
I bought a Focus the same week it was released, brought it back 2 weeks later. I love WP7, but I will be waiting until at least Mango update. Maybe the new Nokia devices will be what I want.

Basically, it felt more restricted than iphone. I want a in-between of Android and iPhone, not an iPhone clone. I can't use custom ringtones, I can't use flash, I can't customize the homescreen the way I want, free apps are horrible (but paid apps are really good), battery life seems worse than android, and a few other issues I had.

Other than that though, I really liked it and I'm hoping MS can fix everything.
[Windows Phone 7 General] alesscam:
I have and really like hd7 and wp7

but as far as I'm concerned MS

is out of step with other OS

watch new devices HTC Evo 3D, LG Dual Optimus and Optimus 3D Android

I think we will see something similar with WP7 in 2012 .... and I did not want to wait
[Windows Phone 7 General] tanders04:
I personally don't feel the same as others seem to about personalization.

For me this is the most personal device I've ever had. Sure I can't change the background but to me thats a moot point when I can change nearly everything else. First off the lock screen is definitively "mine" but even once you're past that it is my xbox avatar, my friends, my pictures, and any icons that I've made (you can get apps that do it but when I do it I just use the built in option of pinning a webpage to the homescreen). I'm able to go one step further in that I "hacked" mine and get the custom color options for tiles. Though honestly even before I did that I think the basic color option gave it a fair sense on "individuality." Plus again with the homebrew you get custom ringtones.

Out of all of the options out there (and I've used them all except for webOS) WP7 has been by far my favorite.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
Depends on what kind of user you are. I have used the Blackberry, Android and WP7.

Blackberry: Functional, solid apps but underpowered and slow device. Could not see myself using it for more than 6months.

Android: Hate hate hate the context menu button. Everything takes 4-5 button clicks to access, email on android is horrible unless your only account is a gmail one. Very good apps and app store, and extremely customizable

WP7: Almost instant access to everything. Flip the lock screen and I can tell how many emails I have, what meetings are coming up, any missed calls or text messages. The commercials don't lie about how easy and quick it is to get the information you need and move on with your life.

For me the WP7 is exactly what I wanted from a smartphone. I'm don't stare at my phone a lot but when I do whatever info is needed should be fast and to the point.

If you like to configure your phone or treat it like a football team to the envy of your friends then stay away from it
[Windows Phone 7 General] jackleung:
OMG, it's the best summary I saw so far for WP7
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
I own an HD2, Vibrant, and HD7 and I've been saying the same thing since I started posting in these threads.

For the first 2-3 weeks, the phone is awesome. The user experience is fresh/new and you don't really notice the deficiencies.

When "playtime is over" and you need to actually get work done, this phone OS falls flat on its face.

I'll probably be SIM Swapping my unlimited data plan back to my Vibrant in the next week. The only thing I'll miss from the HD7 is Board Express, the Huge Screen, and the Roomy soft keyboard that makes both Swipe and the Samsung keyboard feel like it's on a 3" screen (can hardly type on them after using the WP7 keyboard so much).
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
You're assuming someone wants to buy it. Not many people want to buy WP7 devices.

I get 10x the amount of offers for my HD2, and 5x for my Vibrant that people trying to sell WP7 devices get for their phone. The interest is just so low. When you buy this phone, you have to make up your mind that it's what you want FAST so that you can return it in the carrier return window. They are hard as hell to sell.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jorijn:
Thank you for these extended opinions. I decided not to make the switch. Microsoft seems to have a rather unpleasant image on phone updates. WP7 doesn't have advanced navigation features like Android does at the moment.

WP7 seems to be a wonderful experience to have for a few days. After that it'll probably get old and boring and I'll guess I'll probably start seeing the negative points on this all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] peacekeeper05:
I suggest stay on android or either go to ios. Wait for 2012 and nokia's wp7 releases. Wp7 is still too premature for hardcore users. Too many restrictions and drawbacks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pdauser92:
Thats not strictly true. Speaking from personal experience I've sold Omnia 7s, Mozarts and HD7s without problems. It wasn't difficult at all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
I think you've made a wise choice for now. let's see how it does after Mango.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jasongw:
As an idiot who foolishly jumped on the WP7 bandwagon at launch, I implore you to STAY AWAY FROM WP7. It's fast with a sexy UI (the best in the industry) but the OS is lacking features even dumbphones have had for years on end.

Windows Phone 7 will be a great platform when it grows up--it's not there yet. At the earliest, wait for fall 2011 and the wave 2 devices, AFTER the mango update becomes stock on all the devices. Right now it's just not worth it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
I feel similar.

After beeing totally and utterly happy of having my dream UI in my hands and very good homescreen, fluidity etc., now I feel "fooled".

I would be maybe less bitter if I could at least buy apps in my country but I guess I will wait for a loong time for this "privilege".

But after spending 3 months with it, I'm fed up. ****, I'm the poweruser.

Have been using Symbian UIQ for years and than WM6x for another years.

The fact is I will buy Android of which UI I don't like.

But the fact is I can do EVERYTHING I want there right now. It's almost complete. And WP7 will not do most of it for a loong time unless MS will really change their policy.

I actually don't believe in MS success if they will stay on their current route.

And the update situation - well considering Mango in December, I CAN'T LIVE with this device for so long in the current state. More and more I need profi features, more and more annoying it is. Right now it's for kids or for people who don't really need much from the device. That's it.

I mean I thought I will adapt somehow but - the restrictions are totally idiotic. It's just a disaster in some areas.

In the end they don't even have a single REALLY attractive device with a decent camera.
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
Or a decent camera app..
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Guys, give this a good read, and read the comment from the ex MS employee. Very enlightening...and frightening.

[Windows Phone 7 General] jtn04:
like everybody else has said, if you're a power user then i would wait until next year when the platform is more mature. if you're just a casual user like me ( web browsing, check sports scores, games , news, ect) you will like the platform just fine. Only thing that really bugs me is the lack of multitasking or more of letting every app run under the lock screen. It's so frustrating to put a game on pause and come back 5 min later to only find out i have start the game over:mad:.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
so if a phone doesn't have 3d it is a failure? Because wp7 is optimized for hardware??? My hd7 runs circles around my wife's vibrant or my son's hd2 which are rooted/unlocked to try and get peak performance out of them (on similar hardware).

Really??? I can't find a hd7 for under 300, yet hd2's are 175-200 and are all over CL.

To the OP, it really depends on what you use your phone for. For me, it really fits my needs of twitter, facebook, games, multimedia. If you are looking for a business phone, it's probably not there yet. If you are looking for a phone that you can hack to death, it's not for you. If you are looking for a phone that "just works" without freezeups or problems, it's been the best phone I've ever used (winmo, android, wp7). I am actually using my phone instead of constantly trying to make it better, and I'm barely on xda anymore (because I don't need to fix my phone daily).
[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
Actually the Vibrant is known to have lag because Samsung can't seem to code for ****, so that's a bad comparison. My HD2 running WP7 actually looks faster than an HD7 for some reason, and my Gingerbread ROM way outperforms WP7 in every facet imaginable.

Like so many mentioned, it's what you want out of your phone. But honestly the iPhone is what you want if you really want a phone that "just works" more than WP7, at least Apple doesn't fail so bad at pushing updates and it's already rife with features and much more stable than WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sylau90:
you should not get one,until 1 year later...

[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
yeah I used a Vibrant 4G at the tmobile store and in about 10 minutes it was frozen completely so you had to do a battery pull... I swear that phone stock is utterly useless, but like you guys say, using the info on here you can fix it!

Then I went to the very back of the store where they had 1 HD7 and no one playing with it, I checked it out, basically just like my HD2, then went and played with the galaxy tab. It's funny man, these reps don't give a **** about WP7 at all. MS fails at promotion on this thing, it's going to take more than some psychedelic spinning phones with some dude spouting off some random **** no one cares about to excite people on this phone.

But back to the subj, I'd wait at least a year man, especially because in like 3 months we'll have all these dual-core, 1080p, 1gb ram, advanced Android and A5 iPhones and WP7 afaik doesn't look to be releasing anything with better hardware soon and still can't multitask or do a lot of basic things a smartphone should do, so you're going to feel like you've made a huge mistake.
