I am coming from a Vibrant and find the G2x display easier on the eyes. Yes the blacks looked better on the S-AMOLED but the colors are more natural on the G2x. However what I find to be most important is text look a lot better on the G2x display than the Vibrants Pentile display. I don't have to zoom in anymore to read text on webpages like I did with my Vibrant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moemoney12:
I have a thunderbolt and a nexus s also. The nexus s just sold on eBay. As previously stated you can not compare the blacks on a nexus s with the G2x, two totally different technologies. But compared to the thunderbolt the G2x shines. And the G2x has more clarity and better whites. When compared to the nexus s. G2x has great viewing angles. Over all a great screen, once you get past the back light bleeding.

[Atrix 4G General] TiM3SH1FT:
I just got the HTC Incredible S a week ago and while I was checking local ads online I saw that someone is willing to trade his Atrix for my HTC.

The Atrix specs seems to be great because of the Tegra 2 but then again the screen brightness and colors seems to be washed out compared to the Incredible Super-LCD. Also the Motoblur crap turns me off but either Sense or Motoblur it doesn't really matters because I use Launcher Pro. I know that the Atrix can be rooted and the Incredible can't (at least not when it's S-ON). I want to be able to use custom ROMS and be able to update to Gingerbread.

How is the Atrix on day to day use? How is the screen? Can we remove the crap that comes with the phone so it actually feels like a dual core? I really like my HTC and I don't want to make a bad move...
[Atrix 4G General] Deleted member 2488575:
I personally recommend the atrix. I mean what does the inspire offer. The atrix does feel like a dual core.

Can't you return the inspire within 30 days of purchase?
[Atrix 4G General] Smallsmx3:
Incredible s? Can u not read?
[Atrix 4G General] PixoNova:
Atrix has a higher resolution. More internal memory as well. 1930 mAH battery compared to the 1400. We'll get 1080p someday.

One thing to consider is the Atrix having an encrypted and locked bootloader.
[Atrix 4G General] QkSi1ver:
i'd like to continue on this discussion... although not exatly the same situation...

i need to upgrade my htc legend with BELL and i have the choice of Atrix or the Incredible S...

Coming previously form HTC Touch where i first experienced Windows Mobile computing, the ability of changing ROMS, then ported ANdroid ROMS which imo the best experience of them all with all the hacking/mod abilities...

So now my only criteria is the phone must be an Android phone... because it has such a large user based and hacking community in general...My current HTC Legend, is a great phone especially after the Froyo update, very responsive but its lacking the storage capcity...

This is why i'm changing my HTC Legend which is still stock ... i read about rooting it but it was a bit too complicated to root it without going through hoops and loops . So I didnt bother... and im running out of space

I've read a few reviews about incredible and atrix... and although the atrix looks superior on paper... i wasnt impressed by the motoblur and the few videos i saw...

The Motorola Atrix hardware is futureproof but only if Motorola decide to release new upgrades to take advantage of the hardware... i heard some bad things that based on history, i shouldnt bet on getting upgrades... is this true? If i'm not getting the upgrades from Motorola, this is why i think the hacking community plays an important role to get the best out of this wonderful piece of hardware ( like the HTC Touch in its time ). Apart from the wonderful beedfed up hardware ... i havent seen anything good... in fact i saw a few threads about rebooting problems, issues...etc and bloatware , not being able to install non market apk and motoblur ( which i only saw in the 1st generation motorola blur in the android 1.5 phone cant recall the name of the phone)

The Incredible S seems to be a more stable phone and i personally like the SENSE UI and HTC in general. I havent seen a lot of negative reviews or problems. COming form the HTC family, i tend to trust it more than Motorola. The 8MP cam is a plus but the inability to root is sad... at least some dev are working on it ...

bottomline, i can live without rooting the IS in the short term or with a rooted stable Atrix which i can customize and change the UI to put something similar to the SENSE UI ( weather and launcher). is there such a thing?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaijinboricua:
Anyone knows how much do we have to pay in customs if we import a SGS2 from the U.K. on release day? I am looking at purchasing one once I get a good review of the GPS performance and want to make sure I am not surprised with any hidden cost.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
unless you live in new york, you dont have to pay any. you just pay for shipping, i ordered from clove.co.uk, and there was no tax, or customs charges, only a shipping fee of 14 their money. however mobilecityonline.com is US based, and is cheaper than clove, you will pay 699, no tax, free shipping, no international hassle. the only reason i went with clove was because they will get it to me anywhere from 2-4 days faster

edit, i just noticed you wont be ordering the day they get released, then it would be faster to order from mobilecityonline, because they will receive stock from uk, which will take a few days to ship, but after that, you can order overnite delivery if you live in the US, so i suggest mobilecityonline.com
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwc3b:
MobileCityOnline has free shipping on pre-orders. But no ETA. Yes, it's 699 but no certain date when they receive stock.

I also ordered from Clove and it's about $744 with 2-4 day shipping. I hope it'll arrive by the end of that week. Also, I think there's some currency fee charged by your card issuer. Maybe 3%?

Handtec is slightly cheaper but they've been inconsistent with stock date.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
yeah but if hes going to be waiting to get his, till after people say they are happy with theirs, and everything works well, then im sure by that time, mobilecityonline will have gotten theirs.. but yah good point

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwc3b:

I suppose that's regardless of where you buy the phone from. Anyone care to input?

When I ordered a phone from the U.K to Chicago, I was not billed any customs rate what so ever. Even while ordering stuff from H.K, I didnt pay any customs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
then you have to pay sales tax, thats all, idk what it is over there, but in ohio its 7%

thats if you order from mobilecityonline, if you order from clove there wont be any tax. the tax is only from mobilecityonline because theyre actually newyork based, so newyork residents have to pay =/ not sure who would be cheaper in this instance, hmm
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaijinboricua:
thanks everyone

That was one of my worries, at least I can breath now :)

Now to see if the GPS performs good or not. The first SGS let a sour taste in my mouth.

Ok, so the sellers that can ship to the U.S. that I have so far are:

clove.co.uk (444.00 euros + 14 euros shipping = 458 euros)

mobilecity.com (699.99 dollars + 0 shipping)

handtec.co.uk (515.99 euros + 12.99 euros shipping = 528.98 euros)

expansys.com (519.99 euros + ?? shipping)

expansys-usa.com (749.99 dollars + ?? shipping)

Watch out, UK still uses pounds, not euros :o

So it's actually 14% more expensive (1GBP=1.14EUR) :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwc3b:
I believe the Handtec price you listed includes VAT, which you don't have to pay if you're in the states. The last time I checked it was about 430£.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
It's 8.75%.

I tried figuring out where it's cheapest, realized that I was using euros instead of pounds, and gave up.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinan:
Is it an international warranty? From my previous experience with Samsung products (laptops, not phones), the warranty would cover the item in the locale where it was purchased, which in this case would be the U.K. no?

Clove just emailed saying if there's an issue with the device, it can always be sent back to them.

They didn't mention any other details. It sounds pretty vague so I guess I'll have to deal with either SquareTrade or Ensquared.

Guys, i want to make sure i've got it correctly: if I'm buying from UK (expansys or handtec) and ship it to USA address not in New York, in my case Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, then i wont pay any US taxes and customs, and expansys's price (which exclude EU VAT while shipping to US) + shipping costs will be my final price?

I've been saying for months that VS is sitting on a goldmine in regard to their gtab. It's absolutely mind boggling that they seem to still be hesitant to cash in this goldmine. I don't understand why VS is so reluctant to endorse their own very popular product.

Edit.

It still seems like VS is trying it's darnest to promote the viewpad over the gtab even though hardly anyone even pays attention to the viewpad.
[G Tablet General] edirector:
I wrote them that they were leaving money sitting on the table back when HC first came out and after the woot sale. All this tab needed was a solid OS. The article said it was beating ipad in sales and that it is set to win sleeper tab of the year. lol

Viewsonic has spent 1% on advertising the article said with most advertising coming from users like us and the boatload of youtube videos. The words they used was "went viral". Too funny!
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
I've been trying to figure out for months why the hell VS released this gtab and decided to let it go quietly into the night and die. I'm willing to bet the new found popularity this tablet enjoys has come quite a surprise to them. Did not one of their marketing personnels see this coming?

And again, they are still trying their darnest trying to promote the viewpad while seemingly hoping for the gtab to die a quiet death. I just went around their website again and the feel is still the same. Their not-so popular viewpad remains their #1 focus even though it's not really bringing in any money. The gtab, on the other hand, is raking in the dough. When are they going to realize their mistake and start loving their forgotten son, the gtab?
[G Tablet General] edirector:
Viewpad 7 is now $299 wasn't it just $499 about 15 days ago? It doesn't support flash 10.1 is what the write up is saying.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Yup. And still nobody is buying it. Some genius up high in VS decided to keep endorsing the failed products viewpad 7 and 10 while keep ignoring their succesful gtab. Let's face it, nobody wants a sluggish windows 7 atom processor in a tablet. I mean, what the hell are we going to do with it? Might as well get a netbook. Windows 7 was never designed for a mobile device like a tablet. And who the hell wants a 7 inch tablet that costs $500?

No wonder viewsonic ain't moving up the food chain any time soon. They got idiots running the show.

Edit.

Here's a video review of the viewpad 10. You can tell that the speaker was desperately trying to look for good things to say about the viewpad 10. Android 1.6? Windows 7? It's no good for anything.

[youtube]c8ZmVvmb7Es[/youtube]
[G Tablet General] edirector:
That video was pretty sad. Is it me or is it thick as hell? The funny part was when he said it was quite responsive and it didn't move when he touched it. What does anyone need a dual boot tab for? I don't get that. Anyway next month they could be $199.

The commercial for the 7th inch has a guy holding it to his ear to make a call. Just put a Bluetooth earbud in his ear. He looked crazy with that big tab to his ear. Talking about the quickest route to brain cancer. The advertising for that device sucked.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
But if you look around a bit you will see that VS must have been spending a fortune pushing the viewpads. They even made a bunch of videos and posted them on their website.

In other news, I'm starting to get the over capacity window thing for xda. Looks like xda is under seige again by wooters and amazoners.

Edit.

Half of the videos out there officially made for the gtab were criticisms of the gtab not being responsive because of the TnT UI. And yet in this video this guy was giving it a positive review even though he had to restart the OS to get a response.

The viewpad 7 and 10 are a total failure. VS should realize this and stop ignoring the gtab.
[G Tablet General] wasserkapf:
You can install a full Linux distro on it! I think that the latest version of Ubuntu has touchscreen support. I purchased a second g-tablet from Woot just to put Linux on it. But nVidia seems to have suspended Linux support for the Tegra line. If the Viewpad prices keep falling, I may have a g-tablet for sale, and then I will get a Viewpad!

Amazon currently lists the tablets in this order of popularity (4/21/11/ 17:22):

#1 ViewSonic g-tablet

#2 Motorola Xoom

#3 Apple iPad2

EDIT: The Viewpad 7 has an ARM11 processor. Not as easy to install Linux on that one.

Hello,

I recently bough a full housing for my kaiser and include keyboard because my other keyboard is failing with H, V and B.

The problem is that the new keyboard is worse! a lot of keys aren't working and some bad mapping, for example windows button activate FN.

I saw a CAB file for repair son bad mapping problems but no idea what to do on android and i think that is possible that after a change for a different hardware is causing the problem (I recently changed a laptop mouse hardware and didn't work until remove old drivers).

1- Pressing call 'green' button starts the camera application, I know that the problem is in the 3 buttons to 5 buttons problem. Is there any fixes for it ?

2-SD is not read. Formatted and still not being read by the WM7, is there any software/bug fixes for this, other than purchasing a new Scandisk ??

3-HD2 is not recognized at all by the pc, even though it charges!

1-Flashing HSPL'ing

2-Flashing mgldr

3- USB Flashing Leo

and i did a factory reset, any suggestions would be nice
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hjhjhj:
First of all, it is WP7, not WM7...WM is Windows Mobile and WP is Windows Phone7.

Your questions: 1) No way to fix. It's not a problem. WP7 was never meant for the HD2 so deal with it! 2) No way to fix...it's a trial and error process on the SD card. 3) Depends on what OS you are using on the desktop. I would guess it has something to do with the way you flashed and/or the particular ROM you flashed. Also, check the USB cable you're using and make sure it's for both sync and charge cable.

Secondly, if you've never flashed ROMs to your phone before, I you better be careful and know what you are doing at each step.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
Any of the Sense ROMs built of the last OTA will work for you. MikFroyo, Warm 2.2 RLS5, Azrael, Sprint Lovers, Unleashed, Elite 3, EViO, etc.

For me, I like MikFroyo, Warm and EViO. MikFroyo and Myn both have TONS of add ons. EViO always gave me the best battery life. I think EViO and MikFroyo are both a little faster than Warm, but all three are extremely stable.

A lot of the other sense ROMs are built using Aamikam's base ROM as a starting point and he is the one that made MikFroyo, so any that say they use Aam's base should be good too.

[Nook Color General] PizzaAmerican23:
My girlfriend just got a nook, and used it for about a week stock. Recentli I flashed phiremod, which she really loves, but wants to go back because she can't read magazines like she could with the stock software.

* So basically I'm looking for a custom ROM that is a rooted and modded version of the original software that can still read magazines.

* I would also like to have it Overclocked, as i noticed a big performance increase going from 800mhz to 1100mhz.

Lastly, I've read that people are working on getting it to work with other roms, (eg CM7 and honeycomb) is this true? What would the ideal rom be that I should be anxiously waiting for? (3.0? with nook features? and videos, bluetooth, and other crap working?)

Sorry for newbish questions, but we just got our nook, so were a little behind. thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Only the stock rom right now can use the special nook included apps. Yes, there has been some work on getting them running on other roms, but there is no guarantee when or if it will happen.

That said, you should be able to overclock the stock rom, and still get the benefit..
[Nook Color General] PizzaAmerican23:
well if i were to do that, i would like to overclock it and root it, but i specifically am looking for a rom that already has that built in.

theres gotta be a rom like this right?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Sorry, but again, no there isn't. No rom, short of the one that first came on your nook, has the special nook app. The special app requires specific changes made to the OS by B&N, and so far, nobody has sucessfully made those changes to another OS. So,if you want the magazine, you will have to stick with keeping the stock OS around.

That said, it is very easy to root and overclock, and you don't lose anything, so you dont actually need another rom to get what you want...
