[Windows Phone 7 General] Fernbedienung:
In other words best if u used the chevron updater u should either wait and see what will happen on future upadates (since u are up to date with chevron updater right now) or if u want to be sure u have to go the hard way unbranding your phone by the gold card method or whatever to get an "old" unbranded ROM installed and get the nodo update on this unbranded ROM over "normal" Zune update?

Prolly I should just switch to iphone5 once it gets realesed even tho I was really enjoying my WP7 so far :P
[Windows Phone 7 General] leglevy:
First I get all happy because WP7 owners can now upgrade their phones easily.

Then I get all sad because MS is acting up again (and might have forced the Chevron guys to take the updater offline).

WTF, Microsoft?
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Microsoft isn't acting up.

I mean, seriously... If they were acting up they'd be closing other loopholes to getting the update (i.e. turning your connection off to force an early update notification) not telling people to not use Chevron.

Use it, but don't come here *****ing when you're still waiting on Mango 2 months after everyone else has gotten it.

Android updates no no different. Lots of times installing leaked updates or getting them through other means can have the same effect. You stop getting update notifications, etc.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Just Wait and See

People, just mellow out about this. Those were MS servers that the Chevron Updater pulled from with MS software, using a tool that MS developed that contained the hole that allowed Chevron Updater access.. There are those in Canada who used this method to update and then, days later, got a regular update notice for their carrier approved update and updated yet again, officially, with no problems. There is no way to verify whether this unsupported, thrid hand statement from God knows who and where, is real or not. Only time will tell and until then you have NoDo. If it turns out to be a problem it will be dealt with, I am sure. In fact, the statement says it is possible, not that it will. For Gods sake, ANYTHING is possible but few things are probable. So, lower your bloodpressure and wait for the next release whether it be a device specific firmware release, an official carrier approved release or the next official post-NoDo release.
[HD2 General] THUDUK:
The HD2, has introduced me to both WP7 and Android.

One day I load up WP7 and say to myself, this is the perfect operating system why do I need anything else.

The the next day I boot into Android and say the same.

Then I think I should sell my HD2 and buy a HD7, then I think NO, I should buy a Desire HD, then I think I should keep the HD2.

Problem is you can still get some money for a HD2 and be able to put it towards a newer phone, can't justify buying another phone.

Here are my confused thoughts, Android seems to be getting more and more fragmented, probably best to wait until the new dual cores arrive, or I could add cash to the sale of my HD2 and get a brilliant Desire HD, but then will this be any better than I already have.

Or I could go the route of WP7 and get a HD7, the future looks new and fresh for this operating system, as am not entirely sure how long Microsoft will allow us HD2 owners to use activation codes, will future updates continue by the amazing DFT team, will Microsoft put a stop to it all, so many if's, so If I go for an official HD7 I would not have to worry about all this.

Sorry to ramble on about this, but as you can see I am confused.

So I need the straight to the point style XDA members to kick me up the bum and give there polished advice?:confused:
[HD2 General] orangekid:
There is no phone with significant hardware upgrades over the HD2 besides maybe the Atrix, but I wouldn't waste my time with that motocrap. Selling the device now instead of later might yield even up to $100 more but IMO it's not worth it, you can run WM6.5, Android, and WP7 (nodo soon).

If you buy an HD7 I can almost guarantee you will regret that decision in about a week or less, the HD2 is the exact same phone except multi-touch doesn't work quite as well and that's it. what other Android device you gonna buy, DHD really? Why? ok the display is a little better, not worth the hassle. Wait until an Evo3D type of device comes to GSM, big screen, Sense, dual-core, good stuff.

If I were you I'd stick with my HD2 till something significantly better in the Android world comes out, or an iPhone 5.
[HD2 General] adell_:
I think it's not worth to upgrade. The spec of HD7 and Desire HD are more or less the same to HD2.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Sounds like upgrading just for the sake of an upgrade. My contract date is due in 6 weeks, I'll be keeping the Leo and just dropping to a sim only contract for less than half the price. The money I save ill be buying a spare Leo for when mine finally snaps.(broken screen, not rigid anymore,,, the adrenaline surges when you hear it bend and creak in your pocket, lemme tell you!)
[HD2 General] vicene:
what I think is,

firstly, you need to ask yourself which system you prefer more.

I have used both of android and WP7. What I learned is that even Leo can run both of them, it cannot show all the advantage.

For example, I got a Dell streak running an android 2.2. I found that the battery consumption, the camera quality, the speaker volume and so on are so much better than my Leo with Froyo, although the main hardwares of Leo and Streak are supposed to be exactly the same. These maybe due to the driver faulty when being ported.

And I got an HD7 as well. The reason I bought HD7 is that I'm sick of using the physical button on my Leo. And also there is no physical shutter and auto focusing on Leo. Don't you think when you're taking picture with your Leo, the image looks really bad? Without this, you may not really experience the most advantage of WP7 - social network.

Personally, I'll go for the HD7. If you buy a DHD, I pretty sure you'll regret that because it'll sometimes be really laggy, and this would be a common problem of all android device currently (because I had never try any dual-core phone). Now I already put my Dell Streak aside because as a phone and as a communication tool WP7 is amazing.

I'll never go for iPhones. I hate iTune... haha
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
Camera quality in android is both drivers and HTC's fault, if there is anything to blame, I found images pleasing, although it was a bit aggresive with sharpening. HTC's fault being their imaging algorithim may not be up to par with the streak's own, as you say. Driver's fault in being that the camera driver is not entirely the HD2's own.

Well any experienced HD2 user knows full well WP7 on the HD2 doesn't give us auto focus. hence why a dev developed a camera app that lets us auto focus.

Now stock rom of a dhd? More likely it will be "laggy", aren't all android stock roms "laggy" anyways? But on a custom rom it will perform better. But the "laggy" doesn't come from android, it comes from HTC sense. Hence why non sense builds perform so nicely. So yeah, i'm just pointing out that not all android devices face this problem, nor do they have to. The solution is to simply install a non sense build.
[HD2 General] vicene:
well, the camera may be my personal problem. I was just making an example. to me, taking photo anywhere and sharing it on facebook, flickr whatever immediately is very cool. That's why i can't accept an HD2 with WP7.

for the android, based on my experience, the lag doesn't come from android itself. it's due to the way it runs. Not only the HTC sense will make the device laggy, dell stage is also doing the same thing. Every time when I'm sliding from screen to screen, as long as the background data or auto sync is on and I turn to a screen which got a widget needing to download or refresh, it could be laggy. For example, the HTC Favorite and some news feed widgets. I also tried the ADW launcher, it's the same. The more widgets, the more laggy it is. and working with Wifi would be better than only running on 3G network. I also tried some customized roms. It is much better than the stock rom indeed and the one with original laucher is really the best as you said. but I'm a guy who like eyes candies...compared to iOS and WP7, this lag is really intolerable, at least to me...
[HD2 General] silverwind:
in term of Market Apps, Iphone is best. So many useful apps and can be easily downloaded.

You can easily get bored with the GUI, just the same as WP7.

Android is good, I have both HTC Aria and HTC Desire Z. Even their processor speed is lower than HD2, but it runs faster (default clock). But, I hate that I cant download commercial apps in the Android Market (not open in my region) :(

My HD2 will either be sold (if someone is willing to buy) or kept it as a portable wifi router ;)

Cheers
[HD2 General] ravonos:
keep the Leo

My personal experiences with Android and WP7 phones weren't anything spectacular.

My Leo is definitely better than either for what I use it for.

I will not be upgrading anytime soon unless something really spectacular comes out that just blows me away.

My advice, stick with your Leo, run WP7 on it and dual boot with Android on SD.

Win-win

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3AstLyBLitZ:
Ive been using some different 2.2.1 roms and im not liking that it doesnt have the stock camera launcher with face detection, smile detection, full working 720p without lag. It also doesnt have other features and i feel that something is missing from these roms. Yes, i know these roms are tweaked and are much faster but it actually might be worth going back until the official gingerbread??? I dont know what to do HELP ME CHOOSE!!:confused:

I dont know but i just have this feeling that if i do a repair in pc companion it would make my phone brand new again :( "legit"
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vito Andolini Corleone:
Flashing back to 2.1 boils down to what you want. 720p has been enabled in the froyo roms. But if you can't really stay without face detection etc then flash back to eclair. Yes if you do repair your phone, your root will be gone but you can reroot vain the flash tool.

I'd restore my eclair backup via x recovery instead of repairing it.

Keep in mind that in gingerbread os (official ) you wont be able to enjoy face detection and the Sony camera launching pattern. Since they have mentioned in their blog that the stock android camera app will be implemented.

Hope that helps you out.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwasson:
Dear Forum...I just purchased the Viewsonic G Tablet at CompUSA and they told me to purchase anti-virus software and install it on the GTAB. I have not done this yet until I seek some answers from forum GTAB users. 1. Any recommendations on which anti-virus software to install? I was considering the FREE version of AVG? 2. Would you down load this software to the internal 16Mb memory or to the 16Mb micro SD card that I just installed? 3. Is there an APP anti-virus software that is recommended? Thank you for the feedback and helping out this new GTab forum member.

Rev
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalpimpin:
Here's my take.

CompUSA was trying to get some more money out of ya.

I wouldn't worry about an antivirus, and I cant even imagine how bad that would slow everything down and drain your battery. Not to mention would it even do any good or would it already be to late.

Even on a computer I dont run an antivirus because of the side effects. I watch what i download and dont go to smiley central. and I don't have any virus issues.

On an android device its almost just more of a gimmick than anything else. If people will install it, they'll keep making it.

Not once though have i seen or heard from anyone I know that runs an android device run into a virus issue.

Just watch what apps your installing. Look at the reviews. If there arent any, and it looks questionable, maybe steer clear of it.

You shouldnt have any issues. If you do, you shouldn't have been doing what you were doing to begin with! :D
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yourdudeness:
I use the free AVG antivirus, works nicely, aint slowing the gtab so it was worth the try at the end.

Hi guys,

So basically, to stop the main thread from cluttering up about MIUI theme issues and new theme releases, i decided to create this thread.

It'll help everyone collaborate and discuss about the themes, and how to make them, edit them, etc.

I myself will post a few themes, but at a later date, (yes i2HD theme will come soon, sorry for the wait!)

So, post away, and share whatever you can find or whatever you've created.

If you aren't familiar with MIUI, check out the main dev thread: [ROM] MIUI 2.3.3 for Galaxy S - v1.4.1 [RC3c! - Based On Official - New Clean Guides]

I will add tutorials and list themes and so forth later to help everyone out, but MIUI theming is really straight forward and easy as pie.

Also please take note that as MIUI has been updated to Gingerbread and has a new layout, some themes may not work properly, so they need editing.

Cheers! :)​
