I as a T-Mo customer am completely against the merger. I have filed a petition for comment with the FCC stating this. I have signed numerous petitions against it and will continue to voice my opinion as loudly as I can. I disagree with many of you. T-Mo is not broke. Their parent company has more then enough money. They just want to focus on the European markets. As for destabilizing the market... I can't even begin to tell you how absurd that is. Let AT&T get up off their ass and build out their infrastructure the old fashioned way. By actually upgrading their systems and doing some actual work. If you really think that AT&T is going to let you keep your plan once you want a subsidized device, you will not be allowed too. Anyone quoting AT&T to the contrary should realize just how ambiguous and open ended those statements are. As for people that are happy with AT&T, I'm happy for you. However your happiness does not trump others choice in having more than one MAJOR GSM network in the U.S.

/END RANT
[General Topics] cajunflavoredbob:
Just so you guys know, even if the merger doesn't go through, there is a claus in the terms that requires AT&T to pay T-Mobile 3 billion dollars if the merger fails. AT&T also would have to transfer over some of its AWS spectrum that it isn't using if the deal fails. It would be better for T-Mobile customers if the merger fails.

This is typical in business. It will really go nowhere. The Gist is I have an application patent that is piggy backed from another patent (so I make a microphone to listen to earthquakes and someone decides Ill use it on a guitar... you apply for an application patent for that specific use for example)

Then I assume i can then attack you if the application is similar to mine (oh wow you are using pink paint i have a patent on red paint...... oh cool red paint is a component of pink paint....so i am going to sue you) seem crazy..... that's is what this kind of stuff is all about............

It seems as though the people who constantly try and get new/replacement phones from insurance are finally reaping the consequences!

I've had insurance since the day I got Sprint and won't be dropping it anytime soon. It has come in handy at least once per phone. :)
[EVO 4G General] Cagtex:
Insurance is a cost per benefit thing. It's only worth it if the cost to replace is worth it. If you have an expensive phone like the EVO or EPIC it's worth it. At least now. I find that 6 months to a year on an expensive phone its worth it. The second year probably not. I dropped the insurance on my hero and the wifes Pixi after 6 months the cost to replace was less than $100.00 and I was having no problems with either phone. It's $100.00 on the insurance to replace. I probably would keep it if I was having to get the phone fixed a lot. Or just upgrade after the first year. $1 or more on insurance doesn't make a difference it just effects how long its worth it to you.
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
lol you should've heard what I was saying because of the $5 spending limit fee. They managed to give me a $50 credit, and gave me another $50 credit this month for being with them for a year lol. I pay my bill on time every time, it's just because I have no credit that they have the stupid spending limit on me. I think they're removing it next month from my account.

Now this increase in TEP, we're going to have to make a call to Sprint again...
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
Here is an idea about best buys insurance, we all know they will tell you they replace phones there with no problem....so before you tell them you need yours fixed, act like you're buying a new phone and when they tell you they replace them on the spot, pull yours out (that's what she said) and ask them to swap it!

[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
I thought the fcc deemed unlocking (aka ESN cloning) legal last year. After a year you pay $84 for the monthly service ($96 after the new increase) plus the $100 deductible. That's more than $150 based on my math.

This makes absolutely no sense. Tep for $100 or illegal esn clone for $150? I guess this makes somewhat sense if it were to happen after month 7.

[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
ESN cloning is NOT legal. and rooting your phone isn't either, they are allowing unlocking for different carriers such as the iphone legal now. why do you think motorola & htc are locking bootloaders now.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
Decompiling and recompiling firmware and then reposting it here is also illegal and against the TOS of the carriers, so where do we draw the line?
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
i don't think google minds as much as the carriers do. android is pure open source anyways. that's why the nexus line has an already unlocked bootloader, it's a dev phone. personally i think a person should be able to do whatever they want to their phones, they own it, not the companies.

im not happy about the price increases sprint is setting forth but they are smart, they haven't breached anyone's contacts yet. if that happened a **** ton would leave the network and for free. their service "at least by me" is a joke anymore.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] viruscrazy:
Hi,

I'm opening another testing thread for android development.

This thread aims at testing the diamond panel power up / down code that I've reworked.

It has been already tested on my DIAM100 with a sharp panel but I need some more tests on different diamonds. From what I've seen, the diamond 500 do not yet have any panel code but I need some diam500 users to confirm that with a small log.

THIS THREAD IS FOR PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO USE ANDROID AND ADB.

Any feedback is welcome. If you're experiencing problems, please attach a dmesg log so that I can analyze the problem, otherwise I probably won't be able to do anything to help you.

People who wants to help but don't know how to make a dmesg log should start by searching for a guide on the forum. Once you've got adb working and know how to make a dmesg log, then follow the small instructions bellow.

Source tree : http://gitorious.org/~jbruneaux/lin...ux-msm-home-work/commits/htc-msm-2.6.27-panel

Logging instructions:

If you want to make a usefull dmesg log, then follow these few steps :

1/ Reboot your phone (that way, I can get the boot log, which contains tons of usefull debug outputs).

2/ Once the phone is booted into android, make a first dmesg log to ensure we have all the boot logging data

3/ Now, turn off / on 3 times the screen

4/ Make a new dmesg log

5/ Post the two dmesg logs along with a short description of the problem you encoutered (i.e screen does not power up or must be "forced" to be turn on by blind touching the unlock bar, ...).

virus if we lower screen resolution of diamond l480 x 640 in to 320 x 240 we can gain speed i dont know how to do it like james which is doing rhalp nand project did in ralp n gain speed as 36.5 in neocore like huawe u8150 hav same processor as diamond n running on 320 x 240 resolution ?? i was wondering if this is possible ppl tried but they are unable to find data sheet od diamond if u could help in this helicopter88 did lower but he dont know how to scale ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] viruscrazy:
In fact, helicopter88 has already contacted me for this downscale but I don't have any clue on how it does work. Right now, my aim is not especially to get the diamond running faster but to improve the panel power on/off because I've got this fix for a long time now but before submitting it for the main tree, I must have some tests on different devices.

Maybe if helicopter88 or james have successfully reduced the resolution we can see how to make it available for all users if it really accelerate the global device speed.

Datasheet are not available for most of the components of our devices and qualcomm have protected all those stuffs with DNA and things like that. We have a few application notes but nothing really specific to one phone or one component. The only way we can work is with other official kernels and reverse engineering.

hi Jerome :)

Nice work! thanks for looking in that matter ! That issue kept me from using android since it was quite a pain to wake the panel up !

Now the screen powers up pretty faster, even though i still see some glitches sometimes (but less than before) and seems like it's more difficult to power it on while it's sleeping (sleep mode is set on 1 in startup).

I'll do a dmesg later on, if I remember well, my diam has a toshiba panel..
