[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
stop waiting, splash freeze shouldn't last more than 30 seconds, and boot should take no longer than about 10 minutes. I assume at this point nobody can boot, has ANYBODY?..... I wonder if anybody tried flashing a capped kernel right after the "ROM". But what I REALLY want to know is if people who did flash this are able to get back to recovery and restore a nandroid?

[Windows Phone 7 General] deadwrong03:
with skype video calls coming to wp7 is there any hope for the current phones to do video chat?

i remember seeing a picture of something that connects to the camera lens on the cell phones and sits at the top of the phone to let u do video chats on phones without a front facing camera...is this real or was i seeing something photoshopped?

because after mix 2011...it seems like it might be best to wait til the newer mango ready phones with possibly a front facing camera comes out to go wp7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
Just wish they add FFC in newer devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kapanak:
Well, if the API for camera access is open, at least if you need to show the person on the other side something using your camera, you should be able to. That is what I expect. Video chatting isn't only useful for seeing the other side's face.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
You can stream out of the back camera if the app allows it (Tango on Android does this), and while I do have uses for that use case I don't know how exactly you're going to "Video Chat" without a FFC, TBQH...

I don't use Skype, though. Their Windows software is just too terrible for me to suffer though. It's in the same category as iTunes now. Need a decent WLM client with VoIP, File Transfer, and Video Chatting support... More people I know use that. No one I know uses Skype. They'll just tell me to text them instead, if I try to get them to install it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
I like how everyone now wants video chat since Apple "reinvented" it with Facetime. I had already had video chat years ago on my Nokia and couldn't care less. Same for many people in Europe I presume.

To the original question: The phones we have now won't be able to do some things, that's just the way it is and it's the same with the iPhone. You can still get a new phone after Mango is released to have full functionality. To announce video calls, they first need to announce new chassis with front facing camera which they haven't done (yet?).
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
It's a bit to do with Apple and a bit of other factors.

I remember 3G video calling here in the UK it sucked, didn't work very well, was pointless and never took off.

However, with wifi enabled phones and bigger screens its now higher quality, I assume as if you're using a PC. Skype will also allow you to video call people who are sitting at their desks etc.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
That's not totally true. Outside of Symbian (not a factor in NA) no other smartphone really had the capabilities. A few rarities, but nothing really big.

What Apple did was a "Me First move." They went first and tested out a capability that had been largely untested in this market and it was a hit.

Also, Desktop video chat software has also gotten better. Services like Yahoo! and Windows Live now support High Definition Video Chatting, and Skype now supports Video Conferencing. There is software like WebEx for Business Users to conference with, as well (we use that at work, there is an Android App for it in the marketplace).

Couple that with the fact that the smartphone market is growing at a nice rate, as well.

As businesses and consumers alike become more and more mobile, and began to drop netbooks/laptops for Smartphones and Tablets, they will ultimately want some of that portability on their devices. One of the most obvious things that smartphones were missing... are webcams i.e. Front-Facing Cameras.

That being said, Skype Video Chat has been proven a ridiculous battery Hog on the iPhone (something like 10% battery for < 30 minutes of video chatting - you're running the camera and streaming tons of data OTA). I think the market needs to focus a bit on battery tech. Hardware in smartphones is good enough that they don't need to be pushing the envelope as much as they are now. They're treating smartphones like their desktop gaming cards or something...
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
Ahh in the US Maybe, but in the UK video calling was everywhere. Infact we have a network that is dedicated to 3G only phones, ALL of which in the beginning were capable of Video Calls. I think only one of them was a Symbian Phone, the N70.

We had plenty handsets in the UK and Europe capable of Video Chat but it never really kicked off. However, from your post I now realise why Apple are plugging it as much as they are, it hasn't been done properly in the US (and now technology is more advanced anyway).

Remember the European/Asian market is bigger than the US one (This is probably the ONLY industry where Europe technically comes first) so it probably didn't kick off originally in the US because manufacturers were seeing their Video Call phones do poorly in the UK/Europe and just didn't bother with the US because of it (Aside from Nokia who arguably, at that time, were big enough to pull it off).

I want to add some weight and more protection for the battery door, and I would like to have metal or hard glass/acryl-like battery door. Is there such replacements available?
[Fascinate Accessories] bwheelies:
You could opt for the extended battery that verizon sells.

running on premium!
[Fascinate Accessories] minho422:
That thing looks like a gigantic tumor! I want to keep my fascinate a virgin but heavier
[Fascinate Accessories] Protonus:
Highly reccomend the Verizon OEM kickstand case, adds "just enough" bulk to the phone to protect it, fit finish is excellent, and it provides a very functional kickstand! And at less than <$10 on eBay it's a no brainer to me.
[Fascinate Accessories] minho422:
this?

it sure looks sexy with the carbon print...but it's a case not a battery door, so I'll consider that one if I can't find any replacement battery door.

where did you get it for less than $10? the cheapest one I found was that link

This is what he was talking about.
[Fascinate Accessories] minho422:
Ah...I like the one that I mistakenly found, but that thing is only $5 so I guess ill skip a big mac and buy that one to see how it holds up.

But is there a replacement battery door? Not for extended battery but regular size...in metal or graphite or some sort
[Fascinate Accessories] TheSonicEmerald:
Manufacturers don't really make battery covers for the regular battery, but Aaron636r (his thread should be in this subforum) is selling stickers for the battery cover and also a carbon-vinyl covered battery cover as well. Might want to check that out. His thread his named 'made my own vinyl cover'
[Fascinate Accessories] minho422:
I checked out his sticker and it looks very good, but the main purpose for me was to add weight without modifying or putting a case...but I guess that's unavailable. Ill just go ahead and buy the OEM carbon print Kickstand case for the design and some extra weight. Thanks for the help!

I have that case and I love it cause it's pimp! :D

I would love to get a titanium replacement battery cover for my Fascinate. Gorilla Glass up front, Ti on the rear (instead of cheap plastic).

That would be awesome.
[Fascinate Accessories] JeXus:
The kickstand case that was first posted is wayy better looking than the OEM one imo
[Fascinate Accessories] critofur:
Would also like to replace the chromed plastic trim ring around the front with a titanium part, though it would probably be less shock absorbing. I dropped my fascinate on a concrete sidewalk once and now it's dinged on the corner. No other apparent damage, thank goodness!
[Fascinate Accessories] AmanteNJ:
would love to have those covers with kick stand unfortunately it wont fit on the car cradle
[Fascinate Accessories] jobu3434:
that ****ty silver metal looking paint...i actually carefully chipped it off well at least the cover coat and used nail polish remover with q tips and a towel and got all of it off leaving this shiny black plastic. looks fantastic.

i think there is a thread about doing it but id didnt want to use sandpaper and brush away the shine of the plastic underneath. i noticed that with places that the cover coating of the silver paint got chipped off (around the mini usb, headphone jack, and a spot where it dot nicked off) it chips off fairly easy. try at your own risk though

[Thunderbolt Accessories] bmx5656:
Anybody know where i can get a replacement battery cover for my tb? Except ebay.. the one seller on there is charging over 20 bucks for the cover.

You can get them from VZW's site, but they are $20 there, too. Most people get some kind of a discount through work, so it does bring it down a bit.

I just ordered one and it ended up costing $14.97 with free next day early am shipping because of discounts.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] relbns:
Hi,

first of all i'm sorry about my english.

My carrier knows that i'm useing HTC desire and because they don't sell this phone they don't provide service that i'm entitled to have according to my service plan.

they do sell samsung galaxy s and they give their customers that own the phone the same service that i need.

so, i think how can i change the id of the phone so my carrier will see SGS instead of the htc desire.

i've succeeded to manipulate their software with dolphin HD when i inserted a custom user agent with this parameters:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2.1; iw-il; GT-I9000 Build/FROYO) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1

i found this line and information in forum which i read.

is it possible to change the id of the device?

and if it does how can i change it?

thanks in advance,

Ariel.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Mr A:
BlackBerry Messenger will launch on Android, so its heard that bbm is coming to android, just wanted to fill in all those how like bbm in the post iv read :):)......

BGR has learned from multiple trusted sources that Research In Motion is planning to bring its beloved BlackBerry Messenger app and service to Android, and eventually to iOS as well. According to our sources, RIM has not yet finalized details surrounding timing or pricing, but we have heard that the company might make the software free to all users. We’re also told strategy is still being developed, however, and RIM may end up charging users a one-time fee or even a recurring fee for access to its BBM service on third-party platforms.

It might seem a bit strange for RIM to want to bring the software that is responsible for keeping BlackBerry devices in the hands of countless potential defectors, but in the big picture, we think it could make sense. The company is getting very frustrated with applications like WhatsApp and Kik offering third-party experiences based on a concept RIM invented, and RIM apparently wants to own the space.

As far as what Android and iOS users can look forward to, we’ve been told RIM will offer stripped down versions of the BBM experience BlackBerry owners know and love. That way, Android and iOS users can communicate with practically anyone who has a smartphone using BBM, but they might not be able to share photos, location, or videos (when RIM crosses that bridge). Users who want the full BlackBerry Messenger experience will still need a BlackBerry smartphone to get it. At the same time, RIM could own the entire messaging app category on every major smartphone OS platform and could potentially draw new users in because it has given them a taste of what BlackBerry Messenger is all about.

Right now, we have heard that Android is definitely a go. But again, we’re not sure on timing, though our sources are confident that it will launch some time this year. RIM chose Android first because of the fact that it could develop and integrate something like this much easier with an open platform, but the plan is to build and deploy an iOS version at some point as well.

Ur'l can keep updated at this address http://www.bgr.com/2011/03/03/exclusive-blackberry-messenger-will-launch-on-android-and-ios/

Guys, I've been flashing ROMS for about the last 10 months and I can't tell the dev's how appreciative I am for what they do since they are supporting my addiction of flashing. I know there are several people that work on the ROMS and I guess my question is does the money go to the team of people or just the person who published the ROM? I'm not trying to offend anyone and if this is one of those unspoken rules then please just tell me to shut up and close the thread. It's just something that peaked my curiosity.

Thanks,

It really depends on the dev/team you donate to. Usually its one person...
