When I first got mine, it vibrated badly when the volume was anywhere over the minimum. I returned it for a new one and this current one hasn't done it once. I have read many reports about this issue all over the interwebs...there must have been a batch or two that is stricken with this issue.
[Epic 4G General] cornaljoe:
Thanks, I was hoping it was a software problem but it seems it definitely is a hardware defect. I'm in the process of ordering a replacement.
[Epic 4G General] blazinazn:
I don't experience the "popping" noise when I'm on a call. Only when I've left it on the charger for awhile. I'm not not sure what exactly causes it but it's quite annoying. If I take it off the charger and let it cool off, it's fine. Not sure what the deal with that is..
[Epic 4G General] cornaljoe:
It seems my replacement phone has the same issue. Did I just get unlucky or is this a problem with all Epics?
[Epic 4G General] mrzood:
Mine does the same thing. You are talking about the earpiece, right? Sounds like theres a hair stuck in it buzzing when you are talking to someone. It's definitely something screwy with the speaker itself.
[Epic 4G General] incisivekeith:
Happens on mine, too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pobinghun:
I want to flash back to official froyo 2.2.1 that came with my inspire. I also checked almost all the threads relative to this topic, but still have no idea how to do it. I am stuck at ungraded 2.2 with s-off now. I cant flash other roms cuz when i went to recovery mode, my phone shows error icon. Now I want to go back to stock and find another time to study this phone. I need to flash it back tonight. Please help!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] wackydavo:
FAQ #11 (from the one click root post stickied in the dev forum) should get you back to stock here:

[Samsung Mesmerize] mezster:
Hi everyone, I'm new here but have been browsing the forums for a couple of weeks now and since then USCC has upgraded their mez software to froyo and thus raised a few questions that I haven't seen asked or answered fully yet and was wondering if I could get some answers from you gents. I found the voodoo kernel for EC10 on jt's fascinate post, but my big question is do i need a updated version of cwm or is that a dumb question because it is a recovery mod and as such is unaffected by a move to the new EC10 froyo build? So basically will the same version of cwm that ran on eclair work with froyo? Remember I am new here so please be kind.
[Samsung Mesmerize] emarohl:
What version of clockworkmod did you use? My understanding is that the mesmerize had issues with the regular version of clockworkmod (the ones from ROM Manager) so there is a custom clockworkmod called Red CWM all. It should work with your version of froyo. If you had this previously on eclair, then there is no need to update, if not, you can downoad this file and flash it via ODIN.

also check out this forum, its got some good info on Red CWM all. http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...-clockworkmod-recovery-w-screen-captures.html
[Samsung Mesmerize] mezster:
Thanks emarohl that was a lot of help. Much appreciated.

Sweet design!

JWang158,

Great job! I would love to see "cassette loading battery" in more detail. Also, I like how you have incorporated innovation in your first concept. As with any designer, thinking "outside the box" is a must. Good job!

My only concern is the capacitive buttons on the front face. I think capacitive buttons are over rated and get in the way of usability. Yes, they look cool and help to enhance a minimal design, but far to frequently accidental presses occur when your finger slightly grazes the buttons; especially when playing games. I am pretty sure thats why Apple hasn't used them.

Lets see what your design looks like with hard buttons and with a preview of the cassette battery door.

Keep up the EXCELLENT work!!
[General Topics] xplanowestx:
Actually, from some leaks that have happened recently, Apple seems to be moving to the capacitive touch buttons on the new iPod Touch.

http://www.dailytech.com/Photos+of+...+Home+Button+Possibly+Leaked/article21301.htm

I love the minimal look of the capacitive touch buttons. I have zero issue with capacitive touch buttons as long as I have haptic feedback. :)
[General Topics] daprince047:
This is a amazing concept everything on it is what i always wanted in a phone favorite feature is the ti omap im a big fan of texas instrument
[General Topics] mistadman:
xplanowestx,

Good find! But as the article suggested, this may be been just one of the many prototypes that Apple was testing, as the firmware on the device was relatively old. Hey, but who knows, maybe Apple figured out how to prevent accidental button presses when using capacitive touch buttons.

But my original thought stands, capacitative buttons look great, but are a usability concern due to accidental key presses that occur when actively using the touch screen. Thanks!

Great concept, excellent work.

One thing i would like to see in new phones is magnetic charging, like in mac books. It's definitely more elegant than micro usb, and if it also could be used for data transfer it would be really awesome.
[General Topics] drcz_92:
That is just BEAUTIFUL MAN

One question .. How could HTC use this prototype.. ??

Could it be this a actual phone . ?? Just wondering
[General Topics] mailkid14:
Amazing work....you just put a couple of HTC designers to bed. I wouldn't even label the phone "HTC" cause the design is in its own class/brand.

Here is my suggestion which is associated of the internal component that ingages with an external component that will go along with the phone.

A elegant, minimalist induction charging unit is also a hi-grade audiophile speaker dock. instead of the industry standard docking the phone through a usb port or 30-pin dock connector like an ipod touch or iphone to play and charge.

Instead you have a device that can play music wirelessly and charges wirelessly through induction.

The phone and dock has NFC technology that allows you to transfer small pakets of data such as music.

Keep in mind NFC does't send large amounts(limitions to I/O) of data but lets say you enable the bluetooth connection to give higher I/O of data. This will allow the music to sound rich. Every time you place the phone on the induction unit the bluetooth connection automatically turns-on on the phone and music starts to play at you tap or a voice command. When you pull the phone off the induction unit the bluetooth connection turns off to preserve battery life.
[General Topics] htcfreak:
Nice work..!!! :)

Aluminium looks awesome..!!!
[General Topics] professoroak:
Really lovin' the design! Looks sturdy yet sleek and elegant.

I do have one verrryyy small preference that may or not be relevant to a lot of people. I noticed the rear camera is 16.41mp... That's a ton. lol. Idk about the quality of that specific Sony-branded camera, but just from the surface of things, I'd prefer less megapixels with more quality, than more megapixels with less quality. Essentially, megapixels do not equate to better image quality; jamming that much detail into such a tiny image sensor only creates more noise and overall less quality. The iPhone 4 has done well with only 5mp and the Nikon D40 has done well with only 6mp despite being a real DSLR.

Just my 2 cents :)
[General Topics] dodo2244:

some ideas for the luxury model - sapphire screen guard, gems for the buttons, Gold / Titanium / Platinum body, Giorgio Armani embossed on the back or just your name ..... ;-)

[General Topics] abprie:
i like my trackpad on the DZ and certainly do miss something on that design (which is nice anyway)
[General Topics] kirkdis:
nice concept! i like it! but one suggestion i have:

Why do all use these "hard"buttons below the screen. i prefer a smaller desing or a larger screen with soft buttons direclty in the screen. so htc has the option to turn the buttons with the holding postion like on the desire s without problems.

so pls do a smaller version of the device without these crappy oldschool buttons!!

keep this good work going on!!!

thanks

kirkdis

[General Topics] bloodychaos:
Is it for sale yet? I wanna grab one of that!

Haha, I say nicely done! Great, sleek design and it's an iPhone killer in my book.

I like the idea of a cassette loading back and the specs is especially juicy. I was really disappointed when I can't find an Android phone with 1GB of RAM with at least 16GB of storage. I have to agree with professoroak on the camera though, more pixels doesn't mean better images.

And talking about images, I kinda have an idea - possible to add in an external camera lens option? I'm sure some of us love taking photos with their phones, I'm one of them, and camera phones is a pain when you just can't zoom in as much as you want to. I saw one for the HTC EVO before so I'm wonder if that's possible.

[General Topics] Dragon Queen:
Love the thicker corners in alum, I have dropped my HTC and have marked the corners and that is it. Where is the power button? Having the usb port on the left side could interfer with charging if you have to talk at the same time, I like the bottom for that port for that reason. I do agree with everyone for the camera on the quality vs quantity for pixels. A brushed alum would look better and not show any small dings and small scratches. Awesome and clean design overall though. Keep em rolling, someone needs to snatch you up for design.
[General Topics] hyellow:
looking very good. I'd definately by this phone, but it must have magldr, hahaha.

btw, wich programs/tools have you uses to accomplish these renderings? I'd like to do something similiar as well.
[General Topics] Kangal:
Yess!

Why so ignorant? See the iPhone 4 tear-ups and you can see how in that tiny shell the 1420mAh fits. And the Motorola Atrix has a whopping 1930mAh battery! 1700mAh is relatively theasible, probably easy too.

Besides, you know batteries can be condensed further... it justs costs a little more.

I was just thinking how great it will be if you can choose to boot with Android or WP7 - without the use of Magldr or any third party softwares. Just download and flash your ROM of choice of either Android or WP7 from HTC and you're on your way:D
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
Well, that's not very nice. Actually, he's right and I was going to comment on the same thing.

The 'Eden' concept measures 117.5 x 61.7 x 9.1 mm. By comparison, the Atrix with that 1930mAh battery measures 117.8 x 63.5 x 11 mm, so it is, in fact, bigger than the Eden concept. Even the iPhone 4 with its 1420mAh battery measures 115.2 x 58.6 x 9.3 mm, so it's teeny bit thicker.

In fact, using GSMArena, I'm unable to find any phone that has such a powerful battery with such measurements. The closest is, well, the iPhone 4. So it seems most likely to me that with such measurements, a battery of somewhere from 1400mAh to 1500mAh is all that is possible.

Back to the topic at hand.

Jason, I am in love with your Eden concept. It looks incredibly sleek and elegant -- it's the kind of thing I would imagine Apple coming up with. Additionally, the specs are incredible.

Admittedly, though, there is something that confuses me. Perhaps I'm not seeing it correctly, but are there two sets of speakers on that phone? On the front at the top and on the back at the usual location? Typically, I despise phones that places speakers on the back, but I'm not sure how I feel about this.

If you're willing to pay money, you can download the application Tasker from the Market. Once you download it, you can set it up to run the script that's linked on the top of page 2 of this thread. Decide what you want the trigger to be (I have mine set to when I launch the Kindle app) then choose for the task File -> Write File. Copy and paste the file location from the link on page 2, then type "2" in the Text box. Save and activate and you're good to go. For kindle at least, the lights will stay off until you turn the screen off and back on or touch one of the buttons. Not a perfect solution, but the best we're likely to get.
