[Focus General] TIGGAH:
So my HD2 touch screen decided to die on me and my work has been trying to get me to jump on their AT&T plan. I was hoping to hold out until the HD7S showed up on AT&T (which I now think it never will) but since it's not available I went with the focus.

After using the phone for a few days I really like it. The sound quality is better than my HD2 (running WP7), call quality is excellent (but the focus gets HOT compared to the HD2) and I really like the camera quality. Pictures look really good.

So the bad - and this part confuses me. People were raving about the screen quality of the phone, that the super AMOLED screen was incredible. I think it's terrible! The pixels are the size of waffles compared to the HD2 (yes I am exaggerating). Yes I can see the screen in sunlight better but that's it.

I wanted to get the opinion of some focus users. Do you think the picture/screen quality is good on the phone?

It's certainly not an outright deal breaker but I might jump on the HD7S if it comes out within the next month.

So to recap: Love WP7, love the focus sans the screen and hate AT&T :)
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Mate, I own a Focus now too.

I owned WP7 phones in this order: LG Optimus 7, Omnia 7, Samsung Focus.

One of my friends has a HD7 so I can say I've seen the first phones closely. I think one of my first posts here were about the quality comparison between these phones.

To summarize it, put side by side, the phones are:

Screen size:

HD7>Omnia7=Focus>Optimus7

Screen quality (I know it's subjective but I'll detail later)

Omnia7=Focus>Optimus7>HD7

Battery

Optimus7=Omnia7=Focus>HD7

Phone build quality:

Omnia7>Optimus7>Focus>HD7

Sound quality (overall)

all seemed about the same

That's my impression.

Now about the screen. Put side by side any LCD (Optimus7/HD7) screen with the same thing on alongside Omnia7/Focus and you can't miss the difference. Also, if you're complaining about the size, I can do that too. :) I can't use only one hand to tap all across the HD7 's screen, I need to use my other hand as well, while on the other phones I can do it with one hand.

To summarize: The contrast, brightness, colors, legibility is simply better on Amoled than on LCD.
[Focus General] TIGGAH:
The contrast is better and so are the colors but I have to say that's it. At least when comparing the HD2 and the Focus. I am watching netflix, looking at pictures and reading web pages side by side and the HD2 picture is more crisp and text looks better.
[Focus General] foxbat121:
That's because Focus screen, which is Super AMOLED, currently uses Pen Tile subpixel arrangement that have half the number of sub pixels as normal LCD screens. It could be problematic to some but not noticeable to others (like me). Next generation Super AMOLED Plus will double sub pixel count and a few other quality improvement.

If you can overcome this subpixel deficient issue, the screen visual quality, especially the contrast, is next to none. Some might argue that the color is too satuated.

I personally will take contrast over pixel counts. Can't stand the forggy screen. That's why I only buy Plasma TVs vs LCD TVs. Die hards would willing to spend $3000+ for a used (no longer in production) Pioneer 50" Kuro plasma TV over any fansy new TVs today because they know how to cheerish the superior black level (and hence the contrast) or a Kuro TV that none of today's HDTV can match.

Also, be careful of screen burn in. Don't let bright text display on the screen too long. OLED screens are very suspectable to burn in because the pixels have a very limited life span.
[Focus General] TIGGAH:
I hear you on the contrast - I own a 50" Panasonic plasma that I will be hard pressed to part with. I like how the picture looks compared to most LCDs.

I just looked on AT&T's website and they are showing the HD7s on the list of wp7 phones with a coming soon tag. That just happened today so maybe they really are getting it soon. It's got a really nice super LCD on it and once it's in the store I will compare the focus and it closely and get the one I like best.

One point that may keep me on the focus though is the camera is a lot better. I took some low light pictures on the focus and they came out great. On the HD7 - not so great. Maybe the HD7S will be better but we will see.

I got the SGS2 on an upgrade with O2 and I want it to be shipped to Bahrain. For this, I need the box dimensions and total weight.

Let me explain, I'm in Bahrain at the moment working on contract (which is why I still have my UK mobile contract). I called O2 and got them to send the phone to a friend of mine.

Now, I want to organise the courier service we use in Bahrain to pick up the box and bring it to Bahrain. For that, I need the dimensions and the weight. I'm trying to get the courier service sorted as soon as possible, which is why I need those details.

I got the latest Evil Fascination ROM 3.4.2 but when I try to install using CWM, it gets stuck when trying to boot up. any idea?

did Wipe data/factory reset atleast 3 times each. Still I have the same issue.

Please help.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahud:
Hmmm.... I would try downloading the ROM again and then trying to flash it. Maybe you got a bad download. If that doesn't work try flashing the newest clockworkmod. Good luck.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuasiTD:
When I was first trying to go to evil fascinate, I had an issue with updated kernels. I could not run JT or OTB kernels and ran an older ED01 I had on my phone. This then let the rom complete the setup. After the Rom was setup I could switch to an OTB or JT kernel.

Not sure if this is your case, but just something I observed on my own phone.

This was on Evil Fascinate 3.3 as a note.

I can't use fastboot because of the root method I used a while back (unrevoked) and I just wanted to know what's the easiest way to get it going. My evo came with the 2.10 hboot. Do I have to downgrade my hboot to get fastboot access? I have Ubuntu and windows by the way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] untruestory:
Fastboot only works on hboot 0.76. There is a thread in the development section on downgrading. According to what I read you shouldn't do it on hw v0004 or latter v0003 hardware or you'll brick your phone. I did it on my 0003 but I bought mine in early June. Search the thread.

Ahhh I do have 0004. Guess I'm SOL
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] untruestory:
It's a bit of a hack to downgrade hboot anyway so maybe there is/ will be a hack for newer hardware somewhere. The prob from what I read is differences in partitions so maybe an ambitious person might dig through and replace all references to old partitions with references to the new ones. I'm sure you're not the only one looking :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
Am i the only one that would like to see a sense rom on our G2x? I think it would look pretty sick. I know we are early in the development stages, but do you guys think we will get one? If so what port or sense like rom would you LOVE to see on this device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ctt0002:
Sense was cool for a few days for me but i don't prefer it. Now i like the pure androidness But the g2x is pretty popular so i'm sure we'll have a sense rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] los0325:
There is a sense launcher

coming from a few sense phones i can honestly say im tired of it

From my perspective... yes, you are the only one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spovik:
^ This...

...and becuase I didn't want to have to root a device just to get rid of all that junk.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
AFAIK Sense is built specifically for HTC hardware specs and there is no source code for it so porting it over would be extremely hard.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] johnnyp500:
Just ordered the G2x , switching from blackberry

Hi,

I had enough of blackberry and enough of AT&T so im switching to Android :). Soooo.. What is Sense rom and touchwiz? :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
Sense is the custom interface HTC puts on all their phones. Touchwiz is Samsungs UI. They do it to try and set their phones apart from one another in a market full of android phones. You dont have to use them though if you dont like them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I'm pretty sure you can put the TouchWiz Launcher on any phone. I'm almost positive that I had installed it on my Nexus One but removed that crap within seconds.

I know for a fact I installed LG's launcher too.

Most of that stuff isn't anything but a bunch of fluff. While I prefer Stock, I do know that Sense is actually built into the rom more ways then one and you have to have the whole rom built around it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cervantesjc:

Didn't they release a sense sdk and make it open source? Or did they just give devs tools/apis to develop for it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
i think

i think they jsut gave out an sdk to make apps that will only work on sense devices.

if you like sense try out go launcher. it has much of what sense does without the lag. the weather app and live wallpaper is as awesome as sense(maybe not as the new weather animations) dont know but they are pretty good.

kinda a mix betwen muiu/apple and sense. its a really good launcher and has all accompaning apps to go with it.

To any TouchWiz 4 lovers, (I hate TW3 but do like TW4), type tw launcher 4.5 into google and go to XDA link. It's a hacked TW launcher so it should work on G2x. I'm using it on MIUI SGS and it's nice :)

I like Sense, however i am a crack flasher I never stay with one ROM to long so I would like to see it just to give more options. Some things are better on Sense, but it is a memory hog!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JRudnik:
The thing I would like to see from the Sense UI is the Sense Dialer and Sense Contacts. For me, I think it looks so much better than the stock Dialer and Contacts.

I don't know if there are any apps which emulate it (I'm not really interested in apps for this), but I would love to flash a better dialer onto the phone. Not to say that the dialer is bad, it works. But it could look flashier.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Go Contacts comes with a dialer and it's even flashier than Sense. I love it.

I totally agree. GoSMS, GoContacts and GoKeyboard really make the phone look good and function well. Do those apps seem to eat up memory though?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chuckhriczko:
Botlock and maybe Widgetlocker can give you the sense lockscreen in cm or stock
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I'm on Miui now and its dialer is awesome and clean. Dialer One and Go Contacts is also nice.

With the stock dialer I've just learned to use voice commands to make calls. "Call wife mobile". Boom.

Also good for quick texts.

Nothing on sense I want.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
The same answer you got on the other threads you asked this question... It's android its one of the reasons we come here in the first place, we like to see what we can do and how unique one phone can be from others.

I wouldn't mind sense on this phone but I purchased the phone knowing it wasn't an HTC phone, so it wasn't likely it would happen, still isn't!! I'm okay with it though we have MIUI, and I like it A LOT, lol... anyone that is wanting to use a different UI then look into it for the G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] machobug:
Good Sense Theme

The app is a little out of date, but you can download GDE Home and Hero Theme for GDE and you get a nice sense launcher, the app runs pretty smooth on the G2X. And like they said before, MIUI is very nice, nicer than sense.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fabricatedhero:
My 2cents is that AOSP/Vanilla android is why i got the g2x because i wanted a fast daily driver without all the fluff. Its also the whole reason why nexus phones are popular because its pure android.

Yah you may not get the neat lock screen or dialer but you can get apps for that like others mentioned.

Plus the weather images and animations of sense take up a butload of space. So that's a con. From all the threads of htc phones, there is always a dev who makes a senseless rom that basically is a AOSP/vanilla android rom which we have already.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
No kidding there. Most G2x ROMs (like CM7) will run you ~92-120MB. Take my fiance's HTC Flyer or Amaze which run ~300-500MB or more.

i'm on 7.0.2 overclocked to 1.3 ghz with lordmod kernal 4.6
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
1.3 ghz is not soo much...

when i was tried CM7.0.2 i was staid with his stock kernel... my batt drain was well...

maybe you should re-flash the rom... you did this when flashed?:::

1-full wipe (fact. reset, cache and dalvik)

2-all formats (in mounts & storage paragraph)but NO FORMAT SD-CARD :D

3-FLASH cm7.0.2 and reboot the phone...

4-THEN GO BACK TO cwm and wipe battery status... reboot again

5- turn to cwm AND FLASH THE KERNEL

5-reboot & try

It is exactly what I would do
