[Nexus S General] tsunami1609:
I can't wait for this. It really should have been added back when the Nexus S first came out. I support the idea of getting all of the kinks out, and if they made it better because of it then more power to them, but those at Google should work on their presentation. I know, it's not about bragging, it's about functionality, but come on.

I hate to say it, but they should have taken a cue from apple and released video chat in addition to their other big events. Just look at the iphone 4 (once again, sorry I had to bring it up). Of course Apple's presentation is overkill, but it was all of the things at once that made it a little bit beast. New design, thinner, faster, double res display, and software that gave it multitasking and facetime.

Now that it's this close to I/O Google should have just released then. It's just two weeks, why not wait? Then explode at I/O with all the goodies. Better that than an "oh yeah, by the way......"

Just my opinion though.
[Nexus S General] NPS_CA:
Skype + Other Mediocre Video take notice

Glad that Google stepped up to the plate to do this. Hopefully they will do an IOS client later (not that I use an Apple device but have friends that do - FaceTime being Apple only just blows).

Good thing it looks like from the demo is it will work with the Gmail Talk/Video plug in - which is BRILLIANT! First Google Video Call app that can go back to a desktop - a sore missing feature since Skype has done NOTHING with Video on Android. This being Google let's see if they later support multi chat/video - I don't see Google doing that and charging for it like everyone else (barring Qik) is trying to do.

Android really needed a proper Video Talk app and I hope this cuts it.
[Nexus S General] NPS_CA:
Looks like it will, from the Google Link:

You can now video or voice chat with your friends, family and colleagues right from your Android phone, whether they’re on their compatible Android tablet or phone, or using Gmail with Google Talk on their computer. You can make calls over a 3G or 4G data network (if your carrier supports it) or over Wi-Fi.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
I'm receiving an EVO4G for free from a friend who runs a warehouse and was wondering what I need to know about it (nothing too basic about android, im already a tech savvy htc hero user) for when I get it, eg:

is it a pain to root?

best ROMs?

MIUI Available?

Best Kernels/Tweaks?

Any common bugs or optimal settings, anything that you thing any EVO user should have, Im fine with testing very experimental work and such.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
Easy to root with unrEVOked

roms will vary person to person(opinion). i run rooted stock.

yes, muiu is available.

kernels(kinda opinion) will have to be compatible with the rom and there are many options.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJsax:
The EVO is very painless to root. There are so many ROMs available for the thing it's insane just a quick google search will get you going but I suggest trying VaelPak 3.2 RC2, very stable and reliable support www.vaelek.com

miui is available.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
Alright, thanks guys. I've used unrEVOked before, but not for EVO.

As for ROMs, I despise sense so that’s not an option for me. As long as MIUI is available Im sure I'll be fine though. I've heard about some ROMs not supporting 4G or HD Video, and that's huge for me because I live in a 4G area and tether A LOT. I realized the plethora of ROMs and didn't have the time to search and decide through all of them so I made a thread and will compare some of the most polished ones. Thanks

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
Wow great thread, thanks :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
MIUI is a great ROM, however you'll be sad to hear there's no 4g available yet... and there may never be. I'd still suggest trying it out and making a nandroid backup of it so you can switch to it if you ever feel like it & don't need 4g.

CM7 seems like the best rom for you, or you could try one of its offshoots. Vaelpak would be another good option - it's a Sense-less, Sense based rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fowenati:
I'll most likely go with CM7, I wish MIUI had 4G. I may do what you did or maybe dual boot MIUI if possible. There's another ROM by Myn that looked nice and fast that I may try.
[Nook Color General] m2pilot:
Hi guys-

Just tried to flash the latest stable cm7 & now I'm stuck on touch the future of reading. Prior to this I upgraded rom manager to the latest (3.0.2.8 as i recall). I've tried power+n on boot to force it into cwm but no dice.

Before i try the 'file of last resort' (which I believe will repartition me at the cost of losing my previous setup) are there any other suggestions?

Thanks,

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broons:
My girlfriend just got a thunderbolt. Unrooted. It seems as if Facebook will not sync with her contacts. Trying to manually link them does nothing unless the contact name exactly matches the Facebook name. Just wondering if there is some secret handshake or whatever to get this to work properly?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoreGone:
Do you have both Facebook the app and HTC's Sense Facebook accounts under Settings > Accounts & Sync? I believe its the Facebook App that syncs contacts
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broons:
Ya she has them both. I'm sort of at a loss, works perfectly on my incredible then do the exact same thing on her thunderbolt and it just wont link unless she edits her contact names to match Facebook profiles.
[Nook Color General] Wranglersm:
So the subject pretty much says it, all I did was use autonooter, I didn't install any custom ROMs, and now the Froyo update is out. Is it worth updating, or should I just wait until the Nook Color geniuses come out with a new version of autonooter?
[Nook Color General] chibucks:
i'd wait... flash works well with the browser and such (plays in the browser pretty nicely), but other than that, you're stuck with b&n's "market" and no way of sideloading anything at this moment... not sure if there's a way to revert either - no adb access because you can't get into debugging... so i'm pretty stuck with a 'reader' and some apps that i have to pay for, but i can get for free from the market... bleh...
[Nook Color General] t.d:
I dunno man, try flashing a custom rom. Have some fun fun fun :D
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxirane:
Since I ODINed my girlfriend's Fascinate to 2.2 (It was acting up, figured I'd upgrade to Froyo anyhow), it's been having random freezes/reboots/occasionally texts arrive in chinese... Are these EB01 issues or a bad flash perhaps...?

I've not gone and rooted her phone. But if the custom ROMs are more stable I'm un to try that.

Thanks!

I use the REI Travel Document Organizer for my Archos 70IT - 250GB. It fits great in either of the wing pockets. The 8GB is 4mm thinner, so it will fit even better! It runs about $20.00.

Here is the case that I bought....

http://www.amazon.com/Tablet-Reinfo...4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1293509927&sr=1-4

Here is my review from Archosfans.....

Just came in. Its not as hard as I would have liked but it seems to be a great case for protecting against drops and bangs. The exterior has a stiff rubber feel not hard plastic which is more what I wanted. You can bend the case if you wanted which is what I was looking to prevent but it still is worlds better than the cheap nylon or neoprene cases I have looked at. At this point its the toughest case that fits the 70 that I have seen. Fit is perfect. It holds the 70 nice the tight and has a soft mesh liner on the inside of the webbing so it wont scratch your device. This can't be seen from the outside but I was pleasantly surprised to find this added feature. Shows some thought was added to this case. I would have liked to have had a strap on the outside for holding but oh well. Maybe i'll add one later if it bugs me enough.

[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] Caiaphas:
First, you're going to need root.

Get some sort of file manager like "Root Explorer" or something and navigate to

/data/app/com.gau.go.launcherex-1.apk/res/raw

And there are 4 photos there and I don't know if they are the ones you want or what but I have attached them.

I also found one in/data/app/com.gau.go.launcherex-1.apk/res/drawable-hdpi which is zzzzzzzz_wallpaper.

If they arn't them, I'll be happy to look for the other ones if you can give a decription and any add-ons you have.

I was just browsing Youtube looking at videos of the Galaxy S2 and I think it has really made me forget about getting the Sensation, HTC to me is really dropping the ball and I really do think Samsung is taking over as the top cell phone company, the quality of HTC's phones are amazing build quality wise but performance is lacking bad compared to other companys. This video shows how the guy was trying to load up heavy flash content in the browser and the Galaxy 2 just eating it up, Im just wondering if this phone has the 1.0 dual processor Samsung chip or the 1.2 dual processor Tegra 2 Samsung promises to put onto the phone.
[Nexus One General] Axefield:
It's retail version with 1,2GHz dual core. You can find the maker of that video also from xda as Dombledore
[Nexus One General] phewizzo:
Can we confirm this is a HTC Sensation killer and put it to rest? I remember when the HTC Pyramid's details were first brought out, they talked of it having a 1.2 front facing camera, and now they bumped it down to VGA front facing camera when it became the Sensation, and we also so how bad the quadrant scores for the qualcomm chip is to. Also why not just give it 1 GB of ram like the Galaxy S2 does. Im really wondering what carrier the G2 will be going to.
[Nexus One General] soloxp:

They have a seperate forum for the SGS2.

(Nothing against phewizzo or any other contributors, i always like reading about what's new out there)
[Nexus One General] YoMarK:
Why?

Both Phones are not in the wild yet, but preliminary benchmarks show the potential of the Adreno 220, and that is that it *could* be much faster then both the Mali GPU and the Tegra2: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4243/...mance-1-5-ghz-msm8660-adreno-220-benchmarks/2

[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
wow that video is impressive. current android uses the CPU to render all browser scrolling (all scrolling everywhere in fact) so how is that so smooth in that video? its mind blowingly smooth.

now we know samsung gave the international galaxy s a special unique graphics chip update that uses hardware acceleration for the entire galaxy s phone, the browser, all scrolling, lists, all of it uses the graphics chip. no other android phone does this.

did samsung do the same update for the galaxy s2? seems like it. but also since dual core is so much faster, it could also just be using the regular CPU which is far more powerful.
[Nexus One General] pakraider:
Wow. All I can say.

They BETTER make one for T-Mobile with AWS support! I *might* just be tempted to buy one even without AWS support, because that smoothness is just unreal!
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
It has HDMI-out capability:

http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-review-26148446/

On the base of the phone is a microUSB port which also supports the MHL standard for HDMI connectivity, assuming you have the correct adapter cable. That’s handy, since the Galaxy S II is capable of shooting Full HD 1080p video at 30fps, still something of a rarity in the market.​
[Nexus One General] phewizzo:
Im really looking foward to this phone, also slimmest phone in the world.
[Nexus One General] YoMarK:
There is no special unique graphics chip in the galaxy S, although the SGX540 graphics chip is (much)faster then the Adreno 200 in our Nexus One, there is no such thing as "special" full hardware acceleration in Android 2.x. Latest samsung's Touchwizz accelerates some things like rotating and overlays, but full acceleration is for Android 3.0 and above.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i only mean "special" in that samsung gave the international galaxy s this update. do you have soem info that we dont have saying it doesnt have this update? cause i'm aware that android 2.x doesnt have any hardware acceleration. what i'm saying is, samsung broke this mold and provided the international galaxy s with an update that does exactly that. its been covered before.

[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i decided the galaxy s2 is my next phone, even though i swore i'd never go samsung.

question, will this phone be quad band 3G? or will there be an AWS version, an ATT version, etc? cause the spec sheet on gsmarena (always pretty accurate) shows quad band 3G.

man i cant wait.
[Nexus One General] izmar:
Yea, same question. I saw that too, so I think it's going to be able to run on T-mo and AT&T!

I've also read that an AT&T bands version will be released later in the summer, with T-Mo's version only having their bands.

Who knows though!

The question is, will AT&T offer the phone? Just because it runs on AT&T bands, doesn't mean we'll get to buy it for a subsidized price... And I'm telling you right now, I'm not paying $900 for a phone! I already chucked out $520 for my nexus!

Unless its a real screen actually on their. site somewhere i think its prob that adobe just grabbed some images that looked good.

Just my opinion. Lets hope it is real though.
[Nexus One General] Made2Last:
We have seen Sanding pull out the Quad Band 850 1700 1900 2100 phone before. The G2x didn't end up being quad band on t-mo like everyone speculated, but I don't see why Samsung would change their chipset.

Just so you know it is not unusual for a SD card build to not boot all the way up on the first time around. But bit usually if you do a reset and try booting it again it boots. Look into getting yourself a dual boot app too, just go to HD2 Windows Mobile themes and apps and do a search for Dual Boot apps or something like that. Turning HTC Sense hels with running Android from SD and also booting Android with in the first 10 to 15 secounds after Windows Mobile boots up helps out to, this is to keep Windows Mobile from establishing a data connection.

Radio Version: 2.10.50.26

and i notice that my battery doesn't last that much and i have wifi turned off... and want a better rom, if not a custom rom maybe the official upgrade but i want to know what about if my cellphone locks again to T-Mobile and i can't use it with my carrier.
