I have both phones but I prefer my x10 alot more!! Itsfater an smoother and more customizable

Sent from my X10i TripNMiUI-IRIS
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealPsygnosis:
thanks for all the answer...

but the owner of the x10 leaves me with no in hands...

he disappeared and call me 3 day after and said me that he sold the phone -.-

You right guys, he maybe change his idea to exchange my iphone with his x10...

So I've decided to buy (always used) an google nexus one... I hope I've made a good choice...instead of the x10...

thanks to all...

Not bD choice
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealPsygnosis:
bd =bad?

So I made a good choice? or it's still better the x10?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtblittlebrown:
Iphone=worst decision of your life you could ever make

You bought a nexus one instead of a x10 there are ceartain advantages between both phones xperia has better camera and design. Being a x10 user I love my x10 pretty speedy on custom rom good design

Nexus one has more ram and better support (google and xda) soo in my opinion xperia is better but these two are both good devices

X10

Nexus one

Both not the best choice being outdated not haveing true multitouch. Not getting newest version of android
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealPsygnosis:
I've listened that nexus will have 2.3 official support and either for x10...

I know x10 is better, the display is much wider (maybe the amoled of nexus is better), but nexus has more RAM and this is really really a good thing...

I love also x10 more that nexus, but it's a question of budget...in the used market I've found this nexus, near my city so I don't need to let the seller send it to me via letter carrier

oh, and I choose nexus also for the support of xda, and the unlocked bootrom

I know that the camera is not good but who care, Iphone camera is the worst! so anything is better that that...

Hey everyone, I'm a new Android user who migrated from Windows Mobile.

Are there any apps out there that can serve as an OFFLINE google maps (absolutely no data connection required)? For those familiar with Windows Mobile, there is a freeware called NaviComputer and you can download/cache google maps and view them offline. Anything similar for Android?

I came across offline map software like MapDroyd, but those aren't google maps but from some other place. What I want is google maps and all their landmarks and stuff...

Free T-Mobile MSG: You have used over 5 GB of data this month. Your data speed has been reduced for the rest of your billing cycle per the terms of your plan....<---is this a good thing or bad thing LOL
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjlawson09:
You should try cskigen's throttle patch and see if it works. Its posted somewhere in the royalglacier thread. Ivr got it on my phone but I havent gone over 5 gb this month yet so im curious to know.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgary:
I wonder if its from flashing a diff radio bcuz I never went over 5gb
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ESKIMOn00b:
I guess I just have good luck... Never got that message, and for this month Im sitting on 6.37GB. I did however get a call from the ISP the other day. Basically they wanna know what Im using to eat 2TB+ a month.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itmustbejj:
I'm pretty sure if you have a grandfathered data plan before they began throttling at 5gb you don't have a cap at all. How long have you had your data plan?

Edit: I'm pretty sure it was a T-Mobile CSR that said in here there is a checkbox on your account for throttled or not and if you had a plan before they began throttling at 5gb they didn't throttle you.

I can't find them anywhere...i thought they would just show up with the photos in the gallery.

While we're on it, not a fan of whatever the stock gallery is i have on here to view photos...seems to take forever.

Any help with both these issues much appreciated
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
Im not a fan of this post. First, where did you put the video files?

About the Gallery, are you using an sd card? Read this.
[Atrix 4G General] Dillsnik:
Ha, sorry you don't like my post, but i appreciate you coming in to respond!

I will read that article you linked...

I didn't PUT the video files anywhere. i shot some on my phone but once they were done shooting (i hit the stop button) i had no idea where to find them to view. I think i have like 10-20 videos that i just don't know where they would be stored
[Atrix 4G General] gnahc79:
if you have an sd card it's by default in /mnt/sdcard-ext/dcim/Camera. If you don't have an sdcard mounted then it's in /mnt/sdcard/dcim/Camera. If you connect your phone to your computer and set the USB mode to mass storage then you will just see the DCIM folder.
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
Haha, good times. ;) I understand now you are talking about video shot with the phone. I didnt know if you were downloading it or transfering it or what.. In my Gallery vids I shot are in a folder called "Camera Roll". If you are using an ext sd, the linked article will explain how you can increase the size of the cache. Im assuming that is why you dont like the gallery and it takes forever to load.? My gallery is plenty fast loading thumbnails and folders, and I have a bunch.
[Captivate General] zerkai:
My sensor has always worked perfectly until earlier today I was messing around in settings (Display > Horizontal Calibration) for whatever dumb reason I had, I pressed "Calibrate" while I was holding my phone at an angle. Then of course that messed things up, so I laid the phone flat on the table (the blue ball is still off to the side) and press 'Calibrate', it said it calibrated successfully and it brought the blue ball back to the middle during the process. But after it was done calibrating it just snaps back to the side.

*#0*# does not work for me, it simply doesn't do anything

Methods I tried:

Deleting ms3c_yamaha.cfg and rerunning sensorcalibutil_yamaha in terminal

Deleting the two files above and rebooting to recovery to wipe cache/dalvik

Every time I ran the "fix" above, it sets the blue ball in a different corner but never in the middle even when my phone is flat on the table. Even when I move my phone around, the blue ball is stuck on stupid. Like right now, no matter how I hold my phone the blue ball is stuck at the very top middle.

I'm on Serendipity 6.4 hoping to avoid a full flash, does anyone have any ideas? For whatever it's worth, can anyone with working sensors share the 2 files I mentioned above?

/data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg

/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha

Thanks

ok so i have been a faithful android fan since the first droid, then i got incredible on verizon, loved them both but hated battery life of inc, hated slow updates but i fixed that with cyanogen mod. so i hate the skins the manufacturers add to the phone cause it slows them down and makes them slower to get updates, i love android stock expierience, but verizon doesnt really offer a decent phone with that. the problems i have with android are the lack of polish and overall not the greatest user expierience and inconsistant behavior in the os lol. i changed to a iphone because a lack of good android phones and i like the consistant aproach apple took even tho i dont like apple or the iphone all that much. so ive been eyeing wp7 for a while. i like the ui, but verizon is just now getting its first wp7 phone the htc trophy, not the best phone, but is wp7 worth it? give me some advantages and stuff i would like, to help me decide if i should get it. also i just bought a dx2 and talk about a buggy and inconsistant phone, i cant handle the constant freezing and unsmoothness feeling of the overall os on the phone, so im gonna return it, just trying to decide to get a wp7 or a dif android phone. thanks fellas
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sylau90:
Stick with android and get samsung galaxy s 2.

don't get a WP7 phone until the 2nd gen devices rolling out and mango update is available.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kregstrong:
Well i would get the sgs2 but verizon doesnt have it lol. Verizon has no good android phones right now, i have the dx2 and it pretty much sucks haha
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
WP7 is IMO way way under developed. If you get one, you will probably miss your Android a ton. I suggest stick with Android for another year or so, maybe then you can try WP7 when it's worth trying.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kregstrong:
Bravo, do u have a wp7 device??
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrk112:
Do they have a 30 day trial period like sprint? I had an android device and was going to get an EVO or Epic but decided to try the Arrive with WP7. I was thinking that I would probably give it back and stay with android, but I ended up keeping the Arrive and am very happy.

There are some features lacking with WP7 but its definitely a good system.

"the problems i have with android are the lack of polish and overall not the greatest user expierience and inconsistant behavior in the os lol"

Like you that is alot of what I felt about android.

I like tweaking and fooling around with just about every piece of electronics I get my hands on, but sometimes I just want things to work... like my phone... :)

Anyways, if you like using your phone like a computer then keep android if you want it to work like a phone with computing abilities then get WP7
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kregstrong:
Nrk112. Yea there is a 15 day trial period so i have over a week left, yea im to the point where i just want the phone to work and be smooth. That is the main thing i enjoyed about iphone but i just hate apple so i got rid of it haha. Is it fast and smooth always??
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyskmaster:
wp7 is one of the smothest OSes I have ever used (as smooth and consistent as any iProduct you will get). And it is very fast! You will always get stock experience on windows phone 7 and updates are very fast if u don't get a samsung phone (or an AT&T) however, updates are pushed by microsoft rather than the carriers or the OEMs. If u get a windows phone 7, u will not regret it!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kregstrong:
The lack of multitasking isnt a big problem? It looks crazy smooth in videos ive seen, wish mango was out already and verizon would get a little better choice than the trophy hahah
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MartyLK:
With the Mango update, WP7 will be incredibly more attractive. It's already the smoothest, cleanest system available. It has excellent games, and Zune is superior. Android is a very nice system...depending on the brand you buy, of course...but is pales in comparison the heavy-hitting media capabilities of WP7. Android has great media capabilities but it can't compare to Zune and XBOX. WP7 is also much more reliable than Android, now that NoDo has arrived.

With all of the outstanding features to arrive with Mango, there just won't be any choice any longer. WP7 will be the only real player. I was always more fond of Bing voice nav, which I used in WinMo 6.5, than Google nav, and when Mango brings Bing voice nav to WP7, there will no longer be anything the other systems have over WP7. It will also have the world's best multitasking....or app switching for some people. Android has multitasking and app switching, but there really is no way to single out the apps to kill them easily. You can install auto killers and Android has a quick app switcher built in, but the best you can make Android won't compare to WP7's set up.

Hang on till Mango gets here and then do some testing.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] day2die:
I doubt that Verizon will be getting any new WP7 devices soon seeing that lack of attention that Verizon gives to WP. So if you need a phone now, get the Trophy and you'll get the Mango update.

If you are not in a rush though, you may hold out to see if Verizon is releasing any new Windows Phone. Perhaps hell will freeze over!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avandor:
Instead of taking someone's else word or opinion about WP7, why don't you hit a store or a friend and go try one out for a few minutes... it will make a ton of a difference.

Hey all.

When I had my x10 I removed the Shatter Proof film and the screen felt 100% nicer, smoother, and worked a lot better. Had that device for over a year and never got a scratch...

Is it the same with the Arc? I am still deciding between the Arc or Play but plan to remove the film on either device I choose.

so...

How is your Arc doing with the film removed?

[Trophy General] DavidinCT:
I'll be honest with you, all current WP7 devices are the same, the basic specs are the same, some might have a keyboard, larger screen or something else but, the CPU and performance/features are the same between all current models.

If you have done you homework and it seems like you have, give the Trophy a shot, you can't go wrong, you could always return it in the VZW 15 day return window if you don't like it.

It all depends on what you really love about Android, can you replace it on WP7, or can you live with out it ?
[Trophy General] bro1:
trophy,smoother interface and fast,had no probs with freeze etc etc etc,,not as good as android if you like to mess about a lot installing customized roms ,free COUGH games:D
[Trophy General] MrGoodCat:
I am sorta in the same boat, excpet I know I am gonna switch to wp7. I have had the incredible since launch day and it has been an awesome phone. I came from wm6.5 on the tp2. I loved how easily you could customize wm6.5 but it was a dying os, alas I went to android. I also got android knowing that the same sorta hack/customizing scene was taking off. Well, I just don't have time anymore to spend fiddling and customizing my phone multiple times a week. I have been running cyanogen 7 rc something for a while now, its been smooth, but I just don't have the time to keep up.

So long story short, aside from customizing android, I don't find it all that appealing. maybe the only thing i'll miss is "google maps." I have demoed multiple wp7 phones in at&t and sprint stores. And like DavidinCT said, they all felt/performed the same. I even almost jumped ship to sprint, but the keyboard was the deal breaker, hate phones with physical keyboards. anywho, i also (with every ounce of engery) despise apple, so iphone is outa the question.

another thing that sealed the deal for me is I have an xbox360 and zune hd. having both of those integrate with my phone will be awesome.

so all in all. every wp7 phone I have demoed have run buttery smooth, I dig the snappy ui, I am already used to the ui (thanks zune hd), and I look forward to xbox live integration. it is already enough to make me drop android and give it a shot, and its only going to get better (mango, and future updates). plus i look forward to a phone I don't have to strip down and customize to get it to run smoothly, oh, and hopefully better battery life. ok, I am done...hope that helps a little
[Trophy General] TotalAxim:
I'm on the same boat as well and it's torture. I have an HTC Touchpro2 and I'll likely go with WP7 but I'm not ruling out Android just yet. I'll think about it for a week.
[Trophy General] Tarquin76:
I changed from Android (Dell Streak) to my current Trophy, and I don't regret it.

I dropped my Streak, tried to replaced the damaged screen, and broke the phone more, so had to get something new. Thought I would give WP7 a try (As no one I know had used it at all, and I like to be different) and to be honest I think it was a good decision.

As mentioned, its not as 'customizable' as Android by any means, but I love the way it works and looks. Its a new OS, and to be fair its jumping forwards pretty quickly!

No lagging problems, good battery life (couple of days including playing about with it), no quibbles with updates, would be nice if I could stick in a memory card, but realistically who puts more than 8GB of stuff on their phone? I haven't met anyone who needs more than that yet!

Personally I reckon it'll easily be on par with the others once the Mango update appears at the end of this year.
[Trophy General] bro1:
agree,the mango update looks good,only a few months to wait and as for the memory card you can IF you dont mind voiding the warranty
[Trophy General] MrGoodCat:
well i just got my trophy today. right now it is charging. coming from an htc incredible, and was pleased to see that the battery was identical to the trophys. yay, two batteries now...

WP7 the worse mobile OS ever!!

My experience with WP7 is the worst ever! You can't do anything smart with this phone!

Ohh great, you can play music,games and chat on facebook.That's it!

No flash web pages, no bluetooth file transfers, no GPS software, stupid email attachment system, NO file management: you can't put your files where ever you want because of the new sandboxing system, no customizations for ringtones and alarms, you can download almost nothing with internet explorer,no multitasking yet,no USB mass storage for real, no way to install your own apps.

Now for a very few of these there is a fix with chevron's patch but still it's not a great thing to buy a phone, and be so dmn limited . My advice get an Android or if you have enough cash$$ an iPhone.

Cheers
[Trophy General] Avandor:
So let me get this straight... you bought a new smartphone with a new OS off the shelf without test driving it or even getting some information on how it functions ? Do you even remember what Android or iOS were like when launched ?

WP7 is not for everyone and clearly you are one of them... go back to Android or iPhone, you'll be happier.

On a side note, just wanna drop a link to this post, concerning WP7.5 list of features announced so far:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1084161
[Trophy General] Tarquin76:
Unfortunately you seem to be one of the usuals who expects everything from day one. How long have Android and iOS been around? Now how long has WP7 been out?

It takes time to do all of this stuff, and while we all complain when updates are dropped back etc, its a waiting game.

As previously stated, you're clearly not a WP7 person, so go follow all the other sheep and buy an iPhone so that you can start slating everything else. (Hey, at least you tried something else, most iPhone'rs have never used another OS yet spend all day *****ing about how crap the rest are!)
[Trophy General] ethan.r.besbris:
I'm actually leaving my tbolt for the trophy. I've become bored with android and I'm ready to give wp7 a shot! Lets do this!
[Trophy General] Avandor:
Give WP7 a test drive before you commit (a shop, friend or a demo phone somewhere), make sure it has at least the mininal apps and functions you can't live without and if not, that you are at least patient enough to wait on Mango.

I do alot of research before I commit to a new smartphone and WP7 was no different... and loving it.
[Trophy General] porkovich:
Hm i thing that the modern user is very spoiled.

You pick a gadget and expect from it to be Number One .... iOS and Android were soooo limitated when they were out. How many years were needed for them to become mature .... Let's say you buy WP7 as a system for your phone ... at the moment, it's actually working, and quite well too. Limited ? Yes ! A young system ? Yes .... several months later You have one major update and in several months ahead a nearly new Release.

If You are no enthusiast, this system is not for You. For something to move forward it needs time and users. Demand will move the things forward much faster. If the shiny, little messy, look of Android with all it's unapproved and tested applications is the best for You, than You have it, just use it. The decision is very personal, only You can choose. If WP7 seams pretty limited to You, stay away from it for now. Return after one Year to see a grown, well build and competitive product. If you look closer You will see how fast the operating system gains speed ...
