The boss man speaks this morning:

<slayher> The stuff wont be getting merged anytime soon because it breaks all other devices at the moment

I am disappoint :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fhornmikey:
doh! I had hoped to wake up to find CM7 builds ready to test on my TB, sadness. Guess I'm stuck with Sense for another few weeks...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Hemorrdroid:
Mine worked just fine out of the box, did you go to your camera and press menu>switch camera?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] OldManJames:
hopefully the code gets shared so we can get some straight aosp builds going in the mean time
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
I wonder why they won't just do a 4G Specific build.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dickenam:
+1000 on that one, chief.

I have noticed my body start to shrivel everywhere since I got rid of my Incredible w/ the CM7 action...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] OldManJames:
Generally that's not how it works with cm. It needs to cooperate with everything else. If it doesn't work with everything else then it would require a separate repo that would have to be maintained. That's the reason Galaxy s phones don't have official cm.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Right, I understand that. But considering that (I would think) future 4G VZW phones would use the same RIL layer, that it would be easier to keep them separate, rather than break non-4G devices. Either way, I'm sure they'll work something out that works effectively.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] royolpunk:
Yeah i agree with your thoughts...4G phones from Verizon are keep goiing to meet this same fate. Except for the Bionic,of course,lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] OldManJames:
Better to find a way to make it not break other devices which is what they are working on now.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Russ36363:
As much as it sucks waiting, I agree with doing this instead of needing to require two builds and forcing what is likely to be a more intensive merge down the line.

Can't wait to test out though once you get your builds up, Pro.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
i thought mecha specific files were kept in their own branch and only pulled in when compiling the source ? so wouldn't the ril for the mecha be in its branch. i'm a little lost on how it would cause problems for everyone else
[Thunderbolt Android Development] phillycreamboy:
This sounds like we might be waiting a while.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Chopes:
It's for future issues that could popup as a result of having the separation, best to tackle it while its in infancy rather then go at a problem 100x larger.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] drod2169:
Partially. The RIL is controlled in the framework base, which all the devices call from. RIL code is very annoying, especially given how temperamental it is. Once they figure out a way to incorporate it (likely how WiMax is incorporated into CM), they'll release the other code. It's very, very doubtful that they'll just release the LTE code, since it seems to be a part of the data code at large, whether LTE is turned on or not.

[G2 and Desire Z General] hyoungluv:
I bought the phone off of amazon originally to use with my AT&T 3G lol but it was the wrong model BUT will it work with Tmobile 3G
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
If i remember correctly, the Canadian and Euro versions (Desire Z) are "world phones" which carry compatibility with all GSM bands in the world. The T-Mobile G2 is the same hardware but only has the compatibility of T-Mobile's GSM bands.

To see which one you have, check the battery cover. If it has "G2" then you have T-Mobile's version. If you have just "HTC" with "with Google" on the bottom, you have the Desire Z version.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
T-mobile runs on different bands than most European carriers though. It depends on the exact model he has. T-Mo runs on 1700/2100mhz for 3G. AT&T runs on 850/1900.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
He actually stated which version he had---the A7272, which is the European version. This version is not compatible with 3G for AT&T (which he found out) or T-Mobile. It will work with 3G pretty everywhere in the world outside of the Americas though.

The Canadian/NAM version is the A7275. It works with 3G on AT&T, most of the rest of the Americas and parts of Australia, but not elsewhere in the world for the most part.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EdWRX:
Sell it and get the desire z

Ever since the market updated, i can no longer update aps without telling it to update like 500 times, sometimes it works. But its really annoying anyone know how to fix it
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xKrisx:
What Market were you running prior to update. Was it a modded version or stock.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordKitsuna:
Its stock and the update was some time ago idk what version all i know is im on the current version and am having these issues.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Disclaimer: I've done a lot of reading already, but I want to double check my steps. Thanks for bearing with me.

I'm running Bionix 1.3.1 and I want to reinstall it (and flash the latest overstock kernel) but I want to start from scratch and kill all the ghosts first because I have some weird things happening with my phone.

So, is this a good process?

- Back up apps with Titanium

- Make Nandroid in CWR

- Back up SMS/MMS

- Disable Voodoo

- Odin3 v1.0 to Eugene's Froyo (Do I need to wipe data/reset and wipe cache partition first?)

- Reboot

- Flash Bionix 1.3.1 in CWR

- Wipe data/reset and wipe cache partition

- Wipe battery stats (from 100% charged of course)

- Reboot

- Flash latest Overstock (Do I need to turn off Voodoo first?)

- Reboot

Did I miss anything or get anything out of order?

Any feedback is MUCH appreciated. I've Odin'd before, but I've never gone this route before. Brick fear is in full affect.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
Anytime I want to clear any ghosts out this is exactly what I do.

- download and place said ROM into internal sd

- make sure you have the cwm update.zip in your internal (which you should if you've flashed it before via ROM manager)

- do a titanium backup

- odin back to JFD, with repartition checked

---- I use ODIN 1.7 with a 512 PIT file

---- the repartition is what's important here, it will clear out anything, including voodoo. So technically, you don't have to disable it.

-once it's done and you're booted up into 2.1, reboot into recovery

- reinstall packages, it will reboot back into 2e recovery, reinstall pacakges again

- at this point you're in CWM and free to flash anything you like

I don't usually bother with resetting battery stats because I flash at least once a day it feels like, but mine tends to be pretty accurate anyhow (maybe because I'm always on power when flashing? dunno, not questioning it!)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
I already have Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo.tar.md5 downloaded, but for some reason I'm having trouble finding a link to JFD...

Also, what is 2e recovery?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
I suppose you could use Eugene's.

Ok, you see how he has 2E in the name? He's already replaced it for you, so technically you could just use that one.

With Froyo the stock recovery is 3e, which is not capable of flashing the CWM zip as easily as the Eclair (2e) recovery. When you boot into it, just look at the top, it will say which version it is.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
How long does it usually take? I've been looking at this for a few minutes:

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

<ID:0/005> Added!!

<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..

<ID:0/005> File analysis..

<ID:0/005> Enter CS for MD5..

<ID:0/005> Leave CS..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
Don't think it's supposed to take that long... let me upload JFD for you
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Much appreciated. I guess I'll leave it plugged in for a minute, but if it doesn't do anything then... I'll just pull the battery, or unplug and start over?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
Just pull the battery for now
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Boo, I also just realized that I might've used the wrong version of Odin.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
That Eugene file is what I suggest/link to in the noob guide, and what I use when I go back to stock. Go to the development section stickies for stock jfd if that's what you want/need.

That error sounds like odin issues, so yeah, guessing an older version. I have the newest version in the noob guide.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Well, this kind of sucks. All the reading I did and I was trying to be very methodical and still end up at the phone!PC... and I'm not being able to get into DL mode. This might be a long night for me...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
try and connect your phone while having odin up

does it recognize it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Yep, com port lights up each time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Hm, you got me thinking. Since it was still recognizing the phone, I just went ahead and ran Odin anyway, despite the phone!PC image. Worked!

Thanks for bearing with me, for real.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romanbb:
That's what I was getting to. Grats!

If your phone turns on, there's hope!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunkstar1:
Whew!

Another newbish question... I always get confused at this point for some reason.

When restoring through Titanium, which one do I pick?

Restore all apps with data?

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out.

I will probably get one off contract this week. Not a fan of the form factor, but I need to replace my Diamond ASAP.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Androidboy35961:
Not on Sprint.
[Windows Phone 7 General] matts4313:
I ordered. Looking at other forums it appears that instore stock at most stores was very limited. No best Buys or Radio Shacks carried it. Amazon and Wirefly had it cheaper, but it wont be here until wednesday.
[Windows Phone 7 General] goodguytx:
I got one on Sat 3/20, pretty neat so far. I catch myself using my old WebOS gestures sometimes.
[Windows Phone 7 General] samrozzi:
I got one today (3/21) Had carried an EVO since day one. still have both. so far so good. the biggest reason Im most likely gonna keep the arrive is the zune player and zune pass.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sketchy9:
I posted this review on sprintusers.com:

I came from the Hero running the latest official ROM (Android 2.1 I believe). I've actually extensively played around with WP7 prior to this so I'm very familiar with the OS. IMO there is no comparison between the two devices. It had gotten to the point where I didn't use my Hero for anything other than phone calls and SMS becaues it was so slow. And it wasn't as if I had a bunch of stuff loaded onto it. Even after hard-resetting and only loading absolute essentials (such as Exchange data) it was still SLOOOOW. (lags to switch between screens, pull up menus, open SMS, etc.)

The Arrive on the other hand is lightning quick for the things I want it to do. It loads apps very quickly and never seems to bog down. I've managed to load two exchange accounts as well as several GB of music and videos, sync with FB, etc., and it's still fast. Fast to make phone calls, fast to SMS, fast to load apps. As I said, I have extensively played around with WP7 (was able to borrow a friend's HD7 for several days) so none of this is a suprise to me. Software-wise it delivers exactly as I thought it would.

Comparing the hardware to the HD7 has been interesting. I thought I would find the screen too small on the Arrive but it actually seems to be ok. Definitely smaller than the HD7 (obviously) but not so small as to be a deal-breaker. The biggest surprise has been the quality of the screens between the two. The HD7 colors are very washed out and the screen in general is kind of "meh". The Arrive screen though, really POPS. Colors are nice and saturated and the screen in general seems sharper. My friend who owns the HD7 agreed during a side-by-side comparison. As far as weight, it is noticeably heavier than the HD7. However I think the Arrive feels higher-end than the HD7, even though there is a lot of plastic in both. I can't put my finger on it-- maybe because it's more dense, i.e. more mass in a smaller package, it just seems more substantial.

The keyboard is a pleasure to use-- I have not had a physical keyboard since my HTC Apache back in '06 (!) and I realize now what I have been missing. Very easy to type, intuitive key placement, and good tactile feedback.

All in all I'm very satisfied with the phone. The limitations of the OS have been discussed ad nauseum elsewhere, but as long as you are ok with those limitations you won't be disappointed.

[Windows Phone 7 General] orangekid:
you mean they didn't order any?
[Windows Phone 7 General] peacekeeper05:
Haha. Im assuming your right
[Windows Phone 7 General] cyclical:
Well the Arrive/7 Pro has it's own Forum section at the verrrrrry bottom of XDA. Most of the posts are there.

I bought one for myself and one for my wife. I am really digging it, there are obviously some things that is missing, but the overall responsiveness and "just works" is great.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ms79723:
i just got mine and i've been trying to activate it for a while..being stubborn...
[Windows Phone 7 General] cyclical:
If it won't connect to sprint network/activate, go into your settings-->Cellular--> Change Network Profile/Update PRL.

I had to this on mine after the Sprint store activated it because it would not make phone calls/connect to the internet. My wife who got her activated at the same time by the same person did not have to do this.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ROCOAFZ:
That coming from a T-mobile user who in a year will have to buy an ATT Phone ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ms79723:
yeah, that worked. i stumbled upon that a little after posting my last comment and 10 seconds after stumbling upon it, the person from sprint told me to do it.

All I can say about this phone is that this sht is immaculate!
[Windows Phone 7 General] oskinosmee:
Got mine sat. And I love it, was coming from the evo . I hate the evo and android but I do miss some of it's features! Don't think I'll look back
[Windows Phone 7 General] whiteonline:
I pre-ordered mine and picked it up Sunday. I think the thing is very nice. I came from a HTC Hero. What surprised me is the thickness is only sightly more than the hero. It's noticeable but just slightly.

There are a few quirks to get used to, especially multitasking limitations. But the speed, flow and intuitive interface make up for that. Thinking about it, even though my rooted Hero did multitasking, the performance was so bad, it ruined the experience (same goes for my wife's Evo).

I still find myself using the soft keyboard -- but for the long/detailed email composing, you cannot beat having a physical keyboard (screen real estate).
[Windows Phone 7 General] Bleak Morn:
I had two on pre-order. Picked them up on Sun. afternoon (3/20).

I entered my Live ID and had contacts, Xbox, ZunePass configured by the time I hit the parking lot. When I got in the car I added my main Hotmail account, and when I got home I configured it for Exchange. The rest was spent exploring apps (no, Steve Jobs, NOT "apples").

The wife was another story, she's spent a few days on the migration - mostly because she hadn't synced her phone with Outlook in the 30 days prior, she wanted to migrate her PST to another machine, and she hadn't properly configured Outlook to sync with Windows Live. (Edit: Here's the Live support forum thread on that issue)

She's getting where she needs to be - but I think migrating her old Calendar items are giving her problems. She's posted in the Windows Live support forums and I'll try to post a link to the issue later. It's not really a WP7 issue - just a sync issue she's having between Outlook and Hotmail Calendar.

So I guess how smooth it goes depends on how much you embrace the Windows Live "cloud" concept. In my case, I've never had an easier more care-free migration to a new phone. The wife's experience has been frustrating, but mostly because she's having to learn a lot of new things at once and of course she's in a big hurry. Procrastinators of the world unite... tomorrow - right? ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] emaculant29:
I picked up one through wirefly for 80 add a new line, and coming from Webos its a very nice device. WP7 is second to only webos IMO, and I was advict hacker for webos homebrew community, as well as a old WM, WM6 user for over 6 years. Heres hoping microsoft sees that supporting the hackers, as HP does will only benifit for the platform, because if you havent used Webos, and the tools available I would def advise you to. Glad to be back with Microsoft though very good device.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hopmedic:
I ordered mine through www.sprint.com/everythingplus, and using the employee info provided by Russ McGuire at www.mcguireslaw.com. Two of them (had to get the wife one) came in the mail yesterday, and now I'm working on adding all the stuff to it that I want.

The screen looks really sharp, and the keyboard is just as good, if not better than, my Touch Pro 2. A couple of the keys are in different places, so I keep hitting the wrong key - enter for backspace, for example. The touch screen is very responsive, and though I expected it to decrease in sensitivity when I added an Invisible Shield to the screen, but it didn't. The only thing that changed is the slickness, since the shield has a rubbery feel to it, though I have one on my TP2, so I'm used to that.

I wish there were accessories in the stores for it. I didn't want to buy a case/holster/etc. online, as I want to SEE it, and SEE how it fits before I buy, but the stores I've been in don't have any yet. Only one store had the phone on display, and it was back in the corner. Yeah, they really want to sell that, right???

Internet Explorer Mobile is very nice. The pinch-zoom is quite responsive, and I have yet to see any white space on a fully loaded page when scrolling. There are pages that didn't work on my TP2 using Opera Mobile 10, but work on here. www.redfin.com is a realty site I use, since my wife and I are looking for a house, and it works VERY slowly on the TP2 (didn't work at all in Opera Mobile 9, like molasses in Opera Mobile 10). The site has a google map on it with pushpins for houses, and it works on the WP7 device, but it is still pretty slow, albeit faster than on the TP2. The important thing is that it works - so far everything I've tried.

I am not happy with the facebook app from Microsoft. You'd think they wrote the OS, they should be able to rotate the app into landscape, but no. So I have a phone with a keyboard, and have to either use the on-screen keyboard or type sideways because the app doesn't rotate. Come on, Microsoft! Get with the picture! Other than that, the app looks decent, but I'm looking for something better. Suggestions?

I'm not real happy about the reception here, after they told me I had "Good 3G coverage". I'm going to call today and see about getting a free femtocell from them. I get one bar, and they had a hard time hearing me at home yesterday, so we'll see what they say.
