[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gizmolio11:
Thanks for the point in the right direction, im glad you could help fix my noob problems :D

turns out i had to use another computer to run qdl tool, no idea why but it worked fine and continued with the update :)

solved!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
don't feel bad gizmolio, I had to go through 4 different laptops before one would act right and let me install the drivers the way I needed to to be able to push the files to the Streak.

As far as I know it's not an issue with a 32 bit machine, but all mine are 64 bit except for an ancient HP I had laying around with XP 32 bit pro that I now use to do all my adb work on my android phones.

Then I installed PDANET and that seemed to concrete the correct drivers on my W7 64 bit laptops and I can use any of them now

[Galaxy 3 General] ronhoover88:
Thats coz you've extracted the tar files itself

[Galaxy 3 General] scapula101:
thank you for answering. i didnt noticed it until i flashed the kyrillos rom. ^_^ i first saw the xwjpf in a .rar archive. i didnt know that it was the .tar file itself! thank you.!

Samfirmware have announced that Android 2.2 is available in France via Kies, and also some new Apollo firmware releases "soon". (I always wonder what the hell soon means!)

Dude..why ur asking whether its 2.2 or 2.3..??
[Galaxy 3 General] chakti:
He,

What's about CSC = I5800XENJP1, do whe have to upgrade like I5800XXJPM :

With Odin > 531.OPS + I5800XWJPF.tar in OnePackage.

Or is it an other procedure ?

clarkkov I have xwjpf and have no problem with GPS. I only rooted the phone with SuperOneClick, then downloaded Fasterfix from Market and set gps pool server to europe, because I live in Europe. Now I have gps fix in about 10 seconds.
[Galaxy 3 General] baldimir:
Strange, my setting is still europe after reboot. Have rooting worked correctly? I had to reboot the phone after rooting to Superuser work.
[Galaxy 3 General] ayancold:
I just flashed this version of rom into my device the feel is good. But the camera bug is still there..unless and untill there is a lock you cannot take a photo. Except for that its prettty good. :) I am from India though and this firmware is for Europe but still i getting a accurate lock with 10-15secomds.

[Galaxy 3 General] baldimir:
I don't use iGO, but Google Maps and Waze get fix in 10 seconds. And I'm using only GPS not with enabled wireless network location. And yes I'm still using the ROM. Did not find any bugs till now.

And I almost forget. I did factory reset after flash through recovery menu.

Hi, I have tried various builds such as valentine 1.01 but have noticed that during installation of certain apps (I think ones that try to install themselves to the card) the card gets umounted and the installation fails.

I tried versions with android 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 but same problem, with Scoot CyanogenMod 6.1.2 build I didnt have this problem but system was much slower than other builds and after a few days it seemed to crash alot.

Any ideas how to fix my problem?

Thanks

:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Some builds seem to allow installation of apps to SD Cards, while others (mostly older builds) have trouble with the task.

Look up builds by clemsyn, and aceyome(spl?) As their builds can do Installation of apps to Sd cards.

One I know for sure is the Gingerbones build, which is a stripped down version of Froyo 2.2.1, but with Gingerbread animations.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kvnxp:
this a problem or "bug" with install apps on SD card... any fix ?

hey krazy killa ... install apps on SD work you ??

i have installed you kernel and valentine not super froyo... and no work apps on SD ... help too !!!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raybond25:
he has already agreed to do so based on the Telstar sbf that was released and can be used with Bell devices, he just needs some files dumped from the stock ROM that he should have within a couple days, then he can get to work doing this and it will be done once he's done his work :)

Hello everybody,

Yesterday I was looking on the internet, about porting Sense UI to different phones, i wondered if someone could do the same for the Spica?

[Galaxy S II General] dhiral.v:
HTC Sensation or Galaxy S2?

Torn between these dual core beasts.
[Galaxy S II General] Master05:
Just a very small overview:

HTC:

Screen

Battery

Internal storage (1GB lol)

VGA Front Cam

RAM

Weight. 148 gr. Holy Moly. We should send the phone to fat ca...errr weight management retreat lol

screen resolution: qHD

HTC Sense

Galaxy:

All things HTC has red are better

The thing HTC has green

Easy decision for me.
[Galaxy S II General] yeus1:
I think Galaxy S2 is better.... at least in Korea.rep
[Galaxy S II General] touness69:
sensation is running gingerbread..

@OP, C'mon there are tons of threads to talk about this comparison use the damn search button !!
[Galaxy S II General] nikzDHD:
Sense vs TouchWiz if a slapped on interface matters, sense is lovely! Hardware wise SG2 wins.
[Galaxy S II General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
both are good phones and you cant go wrong with any. however. i believe the GS2 is better specd hardware. better GPU. better screen in terms of colors. there is no even lag in scrolling at the browser.

the only advantage you will have with the HTC if you call it an advantage is the HTC S 3.0 and i wouldnt call it an advantage.

besides. and the most important factor you need to consider. the HTC now is using a Locked bootloader. meaning you wont get custom roms for sure. and considering how the incredible S is been locked for 3 months now without any luck to open it. i would say avoid HTC phones for now

i will not even buy the HTC for 100$. locked bootloader = useless phone for me.

i learned that the hard way from the atrix. and never again.
[Galaxy S II General] El Salvador:
Having a lower weight does not necessarily mean 'better'. I think build quality in terms of materials (partial reason of the higher weight) is another plus for the Sensation. On the other hand, I prefer the dimensions and shape of the S2.

Furthermore the Sensation's camera has an instant capture feature but the S2 cam has a pretty fast capture too.

Looking at all the + and - I think the S2 is the overall winner.
[Galaxy S II General] Guitarfreak26:
^^^

Very true, imagine when the sgs2 gets cm7 or darky rom!

It's blazing fast on stock!
[Galaxy S II General] touness69:
I wouldn't want to put CM7 on that as the browser would loose any GPU acceleration and be as crappy as other dual core phone, I'll take it as it is with all the optimization from samsung included for performance and battery life
[Galaxy S II General] saveferris:
We don't know that yet, so far the benchmarks indicate that the Adreno 220 GPU inside is quicker than the Mali-400 in the Samsung, I still find it hard to believe considering the mali-400 is quad core, so maybe the benchmark is not up to date with quad-core graphics processor's.
[Galaxy S II General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
what ???? isnt adreno 220 GPU is the same was used in Desire HD and Xperia Play ?

if so, thats more reason to avoid the Sensation. because that GPU is lower than the Nexus S GPU. let alone come close to SG2. that thing will do marathon around the Adreno 220 and that is based both trying to run Nintendo 64 Emulator at the same time same game.

hell i just hope you made a typo and you are not talking about that old horrible GPU :/

oh ok then. i thought its the same GPU. i was about to throw you out of the window lol

we will see. honestly i dont have high hopes for it because the 205 came after the hummingbird and still sucked compared to it.
[Galaxy S II General] mur76:
Is this thread still going on, frankly there is no competition with the SGS2, here's a brief summary:

The Galaxy S2 is out May 1st (phones4u will release on 27 Apr), it will be the king of superphones for a while yet: Most powerfull 1.2 Dual core CPU/GPU combo (yes much better than HTC Sensation), Thinnest phone in the world (8.49mm compared to the Sony Arc 8.7mm and Iphone 4 (around 9.2mm i believe), Best screen tech in the world (exclusive to Samsung - Super Amoled Plus) see below:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016334

MHL which is micro USB/HDMI in one, and lets you control the phone through a remote of a MHL enabled tv, Wifi direct - access your phone through wifi and any browser, the list is extensive, check out the comparison to its nearest competitor that was anounced recently(the HTC Sensation):

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3621&idPhone2=3922

The SGS2 is an amazing phone, 1080p recording check out the video comparison here (click the comparison tool at the bottom to compare videos with iphone 4 and Nokia N8 - also youtube has many other SGS2 1080p samples):

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_ii_vs_lg_optimus_2x-review-585p4.php

3d capabilities here:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/03/samsungs-exynos-4210-flexes-3d-gaming-muscle-at-gdc-2011-video/

many youtube videos detailing amazing things like motion control zoom in-out, face recognition lock screen, front cam is 2mp, better than most phones back camera,NFC, Gorilla Glass, etc...basically think of a feature and the SGS 2 will probably have it.

also see below:
[Galaxy S II General] EleCtrOx666:
Just want to say : HTC Sensation also has Gorilla Glass. And NFC is not yet confirmed on all models :/...

And also
[Galaxy S II General] k87:
r there any vids showing the face recognition lock screen? I didnt know about that..seems like a good feature to have :D
[Galaxy S II General] tjtj4444:
You cannot compare the number of cores on a GPU unless it is the same architecture, it doesn't make sense at all.

A single core GPU can easily be ten times faster than quad core GPU. It is just how they choose to arrange the GPU-architecture in order to have versions with different speeds.

In fact, even a 300$ gaming card for PC's is single core.

Don't be disgusted of womens because of this video, it's only to show face recognition!

Mind the hands!:eek::p
[Galaxy S II General] alex9898:
I dont think so.

Even in the Qualcomm's Mobile Development Platform with a MSM8660 @ 1.5Ghz, Adreno 220 is not as good as the Mali-400 in the SGSII with an Exynos @ 1.2Ghz.

A Mali-400 performs 41fps on GLBenchmark Egypt Standart and the Adreno 220 performs 38fps.

In a real phone running a MSM8660 @ 1.2Ghz, results will not be as good for the Adreno 220.

I like the sense feature on HTC a lot, but G2 has the better hardware.

Will it be possible to install a custom sense rom on the G2 in the feature?
[Galaxy S II General] touness69:
definitely yeah

As there is already a sense port available on the original GS
[Galaxy S II General] vimto25:
Is there really a question to answer :D
[Galaxy S II General] rovex:
Its not so clear cut for me. I much prefer the look of the Sensation. Its not even close. I also much prefer Sense to Touchwiz, which i find quite vile. I also think WVGA is old hat and would rather have qHD.

However the thinness of the GS2 is impressive, the price is right and im bored with the streak.. and the GS2 was out first! The unlocked boot loader sealed the deal, but if they were out at the same time and the HTC was unlocked the HTC would win.
[Galaxy S II General] ndnesh:
Lol! :) 10 characters.
[Galaxy S II General] _dsk_:
Are there any actual benchmarks of the Adreno 220. Would be nice to see a comparison of it compared to the Mali 400 ans Tegra2 chipsets..
[Galaxy S II General] FishTaco:
FWIW: "Pre-production HTC Sensation benchmarks leak, Samsung Galaxy S II has the upper hand"
[Galaxy S II General] Death666Angel:
Yes, I personally think the SGS2 will be better performing than the Sensation. Maybe OMAP4 can touch it on the 3D devices, we'll see.

However, we shouldn't start using pre-production numbers here to compare. As we've seen with SGS2, they can be way off. :-)
[Galaxy S II General] NoOneCanHelpMe:
Have you read the title? Sensation vs S2...not Desire HD vs S2 :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] spyrale:
come on man, there is nothing that cannot be replaced by some apps on the marketplace :)

nobody has mentioned a big advantage of sgs 2...it's owned, among the others, by chainfire, supercurio, paul o' brian, codeworkx, pulser_g2...you know the meaning of that, do you? :D
[Galaxy S II General] dinan:
No matter which android phone I get... I stick launcher pro on it. So obviously I picked the phone with the best specs. I'm sorry but Sense (whatever version) is sluggish and slows the phone down, takes up hundreds of mb in memory. Touchwiz is at least acceptably smooth and doesn't take up too huge a footprint, but I still sub it out for Launcherpro or something else (I'm a Nexus One/S user... not a fan of those custom shells. MotoBLUR is TERRIBLE though, so at least HTC isn't as bad there lol).
[Galaxy S II General] xEraseRx:
I got my S2 like two weeks ago. My only concern about it was the screen resolution and the size of the device, so I was thinking about trying it out and sending it back, in case the screen looks bad or the device is to big to carry around in my pocket.

1. Now, having it directly compared to to iPhone 4 with its way higher ppi, I came to the conclusion that the SAMOLED+ display is way "prettier", so I think the resolution of the S2 is fine, but thats a rather subjective topic I think. (The guy who owns the Iphone 4 agreed with me btw.)

2. The size of the S2 is just incredible. Because its so thin, it fits in my pocket without any problems and is actually even way more comfortable to carry around than my old 5800.

The Sensation has a lower ppi than the iPhone, so I assume the screen will look ever worse than the retina. It is as well bigger than the S2, so it would not be as comfortable to use and carry around.

I guess the performance of the two devices will be comparable.

The S2 is my first Android phone, so I do not know how TouchWiz compares to Sense, but I actually like Touchwiz. Judging from videos Sense is not much better than TouchWiz, if better at all.

To sum it up: I would choose the S2 over the Sensation any time.
[Galaxy S II General] downwiththebanksters:
The sensation came to Taiwan a few days ago and I finally got one in my hand yesterday. It is a really beautiful piece of hardware, and truly feels small in hand. But now I get Engadget's review being an 8/10, and the Swedish ( http://www.nordichardware.se/testla...are-med-hoeg-upploesning.html?start=8#content ) review provided a very fact filled point of view too. Even though I haven't yet actually held an SGS2 to compare it, the HTC screen underwhelmed me. It was in Chinese so I couldn't check what the brightness was set at, but next to the LG Optimus 2X the Sensation's screen just didn't pop. But the Nordic review really sealed it for me. They did a really well done measurement of the radio issues, and battery life. Also according to several folks here in Taiwan we will be getting an SGS@ 32GB Xenyos version! I would dearly love to hold the HTC, or have it in my pocket, but want to own the SGS2! I agree with several posters that say that either way you go you'll have a top 3 phone for the next year. But no root, a radio setup that can't be fixed with a bumper, a meh QHD screen, slightly quieter speakers, and lesser battery life make the SGS2 the winner....at least for me....your mileage may vary.
[Galaxy S II General] Athar Mansoor:
Apps on the market place still standalone.. I was talking more about intergration across..

And to your second point, Well thats the only relief.. :P
[Galaxy S II General] daivik:
So I'm not repeating other people I'd just like to clear a few things up.

To various people - still haven't figured how to do muti quote.

The GSII also has gingerbread.

And WVGA and qHD. Let's put that inter perspective...WVGA Super AMOLED Plus vs S-LCD. S-LCD qHD is sharper in text. WVGA Super AMOLED Plus is more vibrant. But people say that the S-LCD used is of a poor quality and videos have showed the Incredible S LCD being a higher quality and brightness than the Sensation.

And @Mansoor Less RAM is available on the sensation, and you can link profiles and the phone will pull down their pictures. And to select one you delete the one you don't like.

You post was well thought-out...but it seems that you didn't even give the GSII a chance from the moment you got it and simply wanted it to be the Sensation.

And TouchWiz vs Sense is all about opinion. Personally I love it, and I'm not sure if I'd go back. It's so fast, never an hint of lag. I my eyes it looks more streamlined - generally with the colour choices and the use of rectangles. To me, Sense, which generally uses curves or circles or rounded rectangles for menus,options, and the actual UI, just make it seem chunky. Again, just my opinion to add to this repeated debate.

And onto something else - yes we could sit here all day and be "why would you need that much"....the reason is, is because in a years time, the GSII should still be able to handle everything that comes out with ease - with the exception of Kal-El quad core games ofc. The device has been future proofed, so that the users still enjoy the experience and the everyday usage of the phone in a years time. IMO, HTC have gotten a little greedy and have put just the right amount to make you need and upgrade before you've had it for a year. A tiny bit like apple, they're riding of success achieved from past products, eg the Desire and the HD2.

I imagine I've made a lot of enemies, :o but just my opinion and thus, disregard it if you don't like it.
[Galaxy S II General] Athar Mansoor:
If you mean merge the profiles, yes I did that. But no option to select which profile to select the display pic from. The phone just randomly does one..
[Galaxy S II General] daivik:
It uses the first pic. If you don't like it, delete it and it'll show the next picture. Of course doesn't really give you the choice...but I'd sacrifice this option to choose (even though you can pick the one you like) for the speedy-ness that TW gives. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Greenie-UK:
Samsung Galaxy S2 all the way, Hardware much better. PLUS, Sensation has Antennagate (Poor phone signal) like iPhone 4.... Lulz.

http://htcsource.com/2011/06/video-oops-death-grip-takes-hold-of-the-htc-sensation/
[Galaxy S II General] godutch:
SGS2 has that 2, reception drops 2 bars when I hold it
[Galaxy S II General] daivik:
no. that's your faulty unit. Me and my brother have them and haven't seen any signal loss. Near my house for the last year I've never got 3G with my Desire. I now get 3G at least 50% of the time with my GSII...There was me thinking that signal in my area was rubbish. Turns out it wasn't the area, but my phone.
