I really need fast performance,style and sturdyness. I love the 4.3 inch but 4 isn't that bad. Its all I've had so far lol. I wish I could have both to test out lol
[General Questions and Answers] l Frosty l:
I have the inspire and love this phone. Its my second android phone after being with the iphone for the past few years.O and Its free at best buy this week with a new two year or upgrade with 2 yr. ;)
[General Questions and Answers] brd912:
Thanks for all the replies. I think I'm gonna go with the atrix for 2 reasons. First is gorilla glass. I'm known for keeping a lighter or keys in the same pocket as my phone and I've scratched many screens. Also I hate screen protectors. Second is actually 2 reasons in one. Sound quality and the fact that the only thing that drags me towards htc and sense is the evo. I actually have the evo,and its one sexy beast. But I feel like the inspire isn't even up to the evos standards when it comes to the epicness of the phone. The evo set a high standard and still after over a year holds its ground against any other phone on the market. People are still paying 200 dollars for it with a new contract,but the inspire just don't seem to get that much hype. I really like htc's builds and how sturdy there devices are,but I'm no stranger to the plastic feel. I've owned nothing but samsungs ( :( ) so the atrix wouldn't be a problem on that end. The only thing(s) that is still giving me doubt is the fact that I really wanted to upgrade to a 4.3 inch screen,and that with the atrix it looks as if everything is really tiny,even the keyboard. Please,if anyone has had both,tell me why you decided to go with what phone.
[General Questions and Answers] brd912:
Just updating here for people who may be stuck in the position I was but I went with the inspire,and folks until you hold it in your hands,you wouldn't know its awsomeness. I stated it wasn't as good as the EVO,but I have both and this thing blows the EVO away. And as far as battery life,im a heavy user and I make it through the day off a charge. That's with very heavy usage. I did tweak a few things but nothing I even noticed. Brightness down to 47% and turned off HTC mail sync and news sync. Saves a lot. Great phone here,bada ba ba,I'm loving it:D

I've been using many splash screens, and I have many pics that I want to use but don't know how. So can somebody explain how to create my own and what I need?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Did you root using the toast method, or unrevoked?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] criticl12:
Both, I used toast on mine and my brother used unrevoked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
So to create a splash, make a 480 by 800 .bmp file. Then use nbimg (google it) to turn it into a .nb. Then use my tutorial in my signature to install.

Ok guys I'm going camping with school out for a week. Peace!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
an image manipulator, like gimp or photoshop. make a 480 by 800 bmp image. then use nbimg to convert it to an .nb. rename it splash1.img, and use the tutorial in my sig to install.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] upperkingjr:
I dont know if I like this OS or the hardware "cpu" on the flyer,

You cant really get any of the honey-comb apps that support tablet screens.

for instance if you download skype on the flyer, the video is not supported nor is Gtalk video where as on honey comb its enabled by default, also I noticed alot of the honey-Comb apps I was looking forward to you cant see in the market from the flyer.

I wonder if maybe HTC didn't release Honey-comb with flyer because the CPU and or gpu couldn't handle the power that Honey-comb needs to run smoothly.

I noticed on the xoom that even with a tegra and duel core CPU you still get lag in the UI..

And I also tried a few games like vendetta and the CPU-GPUs way under powered to run those 3dgames where the tegra runs very smooth.

Not impressed with the power of this device I guess if it were not for the pen functions I would return it and buy a duel core device instead .

Its basically a galaxy tab overclocked with a pen and 2.3..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Westfire:
A lot of the benchmark test show this 1.5 single processor performing the same if not better in some cases to the dual core Tegra 2. We can't see the tablet apps because the market only shows them to devices running Honeycomb. Time will come, unfortunately we just have to wait on HTC.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
Or community supportted ROMs... I'be not been privileged enough to play with homeycomb extensively, so I'm ignorant to the enhanced capabilities... :-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] upperkingjr:
Here is the link dl for vendetta, works on non tegra devices.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] alexland:
From what I've read the real knock on the tegra 2 vs 1.5ghz in the flyer is battery consumption. The tegra 2 can underclock, correct, meaning that it will passively use less power?

I'm eager for honeycomb as well but I don't think it's the end all be all. The Sprint version of the flyer is supposed to ship with honeycomb, meaning that we should see an update to the wi-fi model in a few months at the latest. As long as I can get the USB host functionality etc I'd be happy :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] falconeight:
The battery is good enough that its not an issue. I can see how a tegra 2 would consume less battery, just know that after two days of use the battery is better than any htc device I have used and on par with the xoom.

I have seen an app that can change density of the pixels on the screen. Can it be harmful to the screen to raise the standard value of the density?

[Xoom General] emmib:
I'm on fence on whether to buy a Motorola Xoom (32GB WiFi EU) or an iPad 2. In terms of price, here in Malta the Xoom seems more worth it as I can get it for 498 euro whilst the iPad 2 Wifi 32GB is at 609.

My main concerns are regarding software, and more importantly, apps availability. Now, before you bash my question, I've read a lot of reviews for both devices, and I've gone through lists for Honeycomb apps, but I'd like input from actual Xoom owners that are using it day to day.

Thanks in advance,

Emmanuel
[Xoom General] theuchi:
well email and surfing is alot more fun and productive on a Xoom compare to an Ipad2 because of the integrated email and the flash enabled full size browser experience

but if you look at the build quality of them it sure looks like the Ipad2 went thought a lot more intensive QA then the Xoom since on the back of the xoom you kind of able to push in the plastic a bit.... thats makes me a sad panda :(

anyway comparing xoom vs ipad 2... there is only one logical answer

android =widgets

IOS = no widgets

and with widgets you get your information a lot faster like news, socks and twitter on one page... so yeah and i do use that alot

productivity = xoom

build quality = ipad2

that said i still think the ipad2 really rocks since it's a finished product but it does not have the widgets
[Xoom General] stevebakh:
I've owned an iPad and now I own a XOOM. For me personally, the ipad doesn't come close - the OS is far too restrictive and the dependency on iTunes was a killer for me (I use linux on all of my home machines, forcing me to run a windows virtual machine just to activate the damned thing).

With that said, the XOOM, or rather, Honeycomb doesn't even come close with regards to app availability. Even if you take the huge headstart that apple have (1 year+), the ipad has simply always been better marketed and there are a lot more apps available. Let's not even get started on the android market place; it's dire. The worst. And for some reason, it's even worse on honeycomb than it is on phones; no ability to rate apps, plenty of bugs (some of which have been addressed in 3.1), no ability to view only tablet apps, terrible filtering and search in general, etc. Apple's app store is how it should be done, the android market place has a long way to come.

The situation is improving for honeycomb and I personally wouldn't dream of going back to the ipad, but for friends and family who couldn't care less about the restrictive nature of iOS and the other things that I dislike, I would recommend the ipad.

With all that said, it looks really weird to see me almost recommending Apple, because I personally can't stand the software. Oh well...
[Xoom General] chrisjcks:
Well, I've never owned an I pad but I have just purchased the xoom and I LOVE it!!!

Most comparisions regard the xoom better, but with the I pad having loads more apps - to some people, this is the deal breaker.

However, if you want a true tablet experience and not just an oversized iPod touch, then go for the xoom.

The xoom has better OS, greater browser and keyboard, better cameras and support flash, it is also not tied down to any PC software such as iTunes and includes more customization options such as widgits. (Android includes a free turn by turn navigation system too)

Oh and the maps and YouTube apps are better on the xoom and have more features (Google property pays off)

I made my decision and I'm happy with my xoom - but the choice is yours.
[Xoom General] myv6mustang:
I have to disagree. I think the xoom build quality is top notch and better than the iPad. It's just when I hold the iPad I feel like it will break... to thin for my liking.

Now applications look better in my opinion on the iPad. Like it was mentioned here the Apple eco system keeps me away.
[Xoom General] rschenck:
I have owned an iPad, and will likely own an iPad 2 when the current shortage lets up. There is very little left to say about the iPad (either version) that hasn't been said already. They are exceptional devices, gamechangers, perfectly designed to introduce mobile technology to mainstream users. Almost anyone can be up and running in 15 minutes with an iPad, even with no experience and iOS rewards those who embrace its deliberate limitations.

My first experience with Android was with an Archos 5 tablet, and then an Archos 101. I bought both as relatively inexpensive ways to get acquainted with Android. and both were very frustrating experiences in different ways. They really made me begin to view Android as a very niche market.

However, when I needed a new phone and decided that I couldn't wait for a Windows Phone 7 device to be offered here, and refused to get an iPhone, I opted for the Galaxy s and a whole world opened up to me...which then led me to my new Xoom.

I have been playing with it for about half a day now after doing a great deal of reading...I unlocked it, tried to root it and ran into the "stuck on the red M" problem, spent about 2 hours reading and sorting out how to get myself out of the trap via adb, rooted it at last, installed CWM then flashed the Tiamat kernel and finally began loading up my apps. Loved every moment of it. The build quality of the device, in my opinion, is excellent. It feels much better and more substantial in my hands than the iPad. The screen is top notch and I really like the honeycomb environment for work and play.

Most of all, I like the fact that Android is a living, breathing OS. SO much to explore and learn and investigate.

The iPad, for all it's many good points, as I said before rewards those who embrace its limitations. The Xoom rewards those who refuse limitations, who are willing to spend the time and effort to learn how it works and discover ways to do it better.

The iPad is the USS Enterprise...sleek and beautiful but cold and a bit sterile for all its power. What you see is what you get.

The Xoom is the Tardis...a hodgepodge of history and possibility, all wrapped in a shell of sweet wonder....and it is bigger on the inside.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
With a Xoom I could have never ever owned a PC and set it up and get it working. It does not require you to hook it up to itunes first. With the iPad... yea I dont know about 15 minutes but after you hook it up to your computer to unlock it (lol) you can finally use it. In my house we have both, I like the Xoom better :)
[Xoom General] okantomi:
you said

"The iPad, for all it's many good points, as I said before rewards those who embrace its limitations. The Xoom rewards those who refuse limitations, who are willing to spend the time and effort to learn how it works and discover ways to do it better."

I couldn't have said it better. The Xoom is my third Android tablet, my second Tegra2 tab, and the most hands-on and most rewarding and fun to own. I have never liked the Apple zeitgeist and have always avoided that product. I prefer the freedom to mess around, get into scrapes and come back from the brink with a better tab and a lot more knowledge. I think that as an open source, Android will continue to grow and evolve in wonderful ways and I want to be along for the ride.

Also, this thing is built like a tank.
[Xoom General] inspiron41:

[Xoom General] CyberPunk7t9:
i'll keep this short as can be...

iPad/iOs = Checkers.

Xoom/Honeycomb = Chess.
[Xoom General] MiRaCL:
I have played around with both Ipad and Xoom. I currently own a Xoom. Ipad is probably fine if you want something simple with few options(not talking about apps).

The Xoom is pretty cool, and even cooler after unlock & root. The downside is app / game availability, but it's getting better every day.

The killer for me between the two is multitasking. The xoom has it, the ipad not so much.

And also, no itunes. The xoom works out of the box.

The Ipad on the other hand has more accessories, wee..
[Xoom General] abn.geek:
Keep in mind that these sorts of issues are ultimately a matter of taste, so the things I don't like the iPad may not bother you at all.

I bought an iPad2 and returned it within 48 hours. I really can't explain my utter contempt for that device, but I just hated everything about it. I'm not an Apple hater, mind you; I owned every iPhone through the 3GS and was one of those dorks standing in line on launch days. I really, really wanted to like the iPad 2, but after having owned two Android handsets (and being a big gadget whore) I couldn't stomach going back to an iOS product.

What I hated about the iPad 2:

-Screen resolution sucks

-Too thin and flimsy feeling

-Stock keyboard is HORRIBLE and there's no way to change it

-No widgets

-No UI customization, period

-Cameras suck

-"Notification system" is sort of a joke

-"Multi-tasking" is also sort of a joke

-Far higher cost for iPad apps vs. iPhone/iPod apps, developers nickel & dime you for every little thing (subscriptions, in-app purchases, etc) - seriously, the whole ecosystem was like a giant money sucking vacuum

-QA on my particular unit was terrible - massive light leaks around the edges of the screen and 3 stuck pixels within 1 day of use (and this is not an isolated issue, though Apple is replacing defective units but making sure to blame their supplier)

iOS is getting long in the tooth, and this is hugely magnified in tablet form, especially with the crappy-looking display. I felt like I was using old technology, despite the awesome internal specs. The best comparison I can come up with between Honeycomb and iOS on a tablet is something like Windows 7 compared to Windows 3.1.
[Xoom General] Croolis:
hello,

i'm maltese too, on a xoom us wifi .. from amazon.com

worked out to 508 eu including hsbc's 'conversion charge' of 8 eu or so.

ipad vs xoom.. depends on what you need.

if you want a platform to play stuff from itunes.. ipad

if yiu want a portable computer you can meddle with.... xoom of course.

build quality, screen and battery life are excellent too.

cheers
[Xoom General] Croolis:
btw where is that price from?

when i bought mine it was closer to 600eu for wifi eu

which is why i got the us one..
[Xoom General] Techsniffer:
While I will state now I am no expert on iOS or the Ipad1/2 I will say this:

My Xoom has me constantly entertained and I've NEVER felt I needed an app that I didnt have at least 4 decent choices of. I have also never left limited on my Xoom for any tasks I wish to undertake, I stream all my media from my computer (via WiFi OR 3G) so everywhere I am I have access to all my media (and now thanks to Google Music moreso) and with Remote Desktop I have access to my Linux and Windows machines no matter where I am. The Xoom constantly feeds me information without having to do anything but look at my homescreens.

I have played with friends Ipad1/2's and while for the most part things seemed smooth and work well I always had this feeling of being lost when looking through the app screens, its like all the icons look the same (same size, many of them same colors) just felt very sterile and un-enjoyable and you get ZERO information without going from one app to another just felt like so much work for simple basic information readily available on my Xoom.

I've never been a fan of iOS or Apple's strategy towards their customers but I really tried to look at my 2 options without bias before choosing my Xoom. As several others are stated you really dont have any choices with Apple products, you take what your given and if you dont like your options you dont have any more to look at.

Android (despite its fragmentation in some areas and flaws, hiccups in others) is the best choice if you like options and a desire to learn more and have real options with your chosen device. If you want something simple that tells you what you want then Apple products are for you. If you dont mind a hiccup with something here and there and having the ultimate say in the apps and add-on parts for your device then I say without a doubt Android is the way to go. Widgets are the best thing to happen to phones/tablets as it gives you so much information without having to do anything to get it and you can always enter into that app for a more detailed look and more options.

As for the comment on Apple App Store having more options, maybe it does but judging by the amount the Android Market has grown over 1 year I highly doubt Apple will be able to say the same thing next year. More and more developers either jump ship from Apples restrictions in apps or choose to release their products on both Android and iOS platforms which means in many cases the Apple App Store is slowing down and stagnating in some areas due to the open nature of app development for Android OS, its infinitely easier to write and sell and app for Android than iOS.

As a side note a friend of mine and I compared apps, we both had some niche apps and some common ones... my total cost was about $40 (like I said I have some apps that cost about $15, my phone apps only had a grand total of like $10) but all in all his total for all similar (sometimes the same app) was about $200, that alone pushed my decision for another android device with the Xoom vs Ipad2.
[Xoom General] jamaicansolja:
If your cheap and want to hack get the Xoom. If you want to easily be able get VIDEOS to play fluently for rent or TV episodes get iPad. I got the ipad because it was so gay to get Videos on the thing. Having to convert then drag to device verse iTunes makes iTunes seem easier. Especially is JB.

Xoom =iPad none is clear winner
[Xoom General] rschenck:
I am not sure I would call the Xoom cheap (not in build quality and certainly not in price) and I don't see what the sexual orientation of the iPad has to do with the issue.

I feel the video converting question is a non issue. For me, converting via iTunes or by a third party app is just as big a pain, and the iPad's native video app is even more limited codec-wise than the Android stock Video. Anyway, just use a player like MoboPlayer or VPlayer which can show pretty much anything, and you are golden.

However I agree that there is no real BEST TABLET...it is just a matter of personal preference.
[Xoom General] MiRaCL:
So spend more money for the more restrictive device? Also, you don't have to hack the xoom. The Xoom has more option out of the box than the ipad.

You didn't manage to get gay videos on the Xoom?
