Thanks Nitro it's good to see a familiar developer. Ran your EF roms on my fascinate & loved them. If we get a workaround for the bootloader, will you be sticking around awhile?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crnkoj:
Hey guys, im looking for a friend of mine how to update a desire from 2.2 to 2.3, he doesnt get an update if he goes to about phone -> check for updates (it says its latest version), so i was wondering if there is a method to flash the update over cable on the phone. to be clear, he would like the stock 2.3 from htc not cyanogenmod or custom roms.

thanks for the help guys
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Its not out yet. If your friend has a branded Desire, it will take longer for the update to go through because carriers are like that. If it's unbranded then the update should come through straight away.

Swyped...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crnkoj:
thank you very much, i searched for that ont he internet and mostly it said coming may so i was confused... thanks anyways guess he needs one of the custom roms ^ ^
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] status_six:
There are plenty of 2.3 custom roms but he will need to root the phone first.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] artvandelay300:
Why would I want to root the Asus Transformer? I have no need to overclock. Anyone have a reason why I should root?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rjskalet:
The biggest thing I use root for is to delete apps that I have no need for. Less bloat allows it to run faster and increased battery life. But thats just me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] glgehman:
There is only one I can think of: to run Titanium Backup.

I got my Transformer about 2 weeks ago and am running 100% stock. I have few if any problems and find it basically an exceptional device.

It bothers me that I can't back up my apps and settings except through the cloud-based systems provided.

Oh, yes. I would also like to be able to change the screen dpi. You'd need root for that. Or is there some other non-root way to change the icon sizes on home screen?

And don't forget the sheer unadulterated joy of learning how!

Along with releasing the breath you were holding while rooting? lol

Seriously, it's just fun to actually OWN something you bought!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zerozed99:
There are reasons to root (many listed already) and reasons not to. I have carried a rooted EVO since the week it was released for many of the reasons enumerated here--but especially because it lets me tether my Transformer for free.

I purchased and rooted a Viewsonic G-Tablet because it was junk without a custom ROM. Rooting it freed me from the horrible stock launcher, and made the tablet markedly faster. It also gave me access to the Google Market, which the stock tablet did not provide. These were substantive improvements.

On the other hand, I have yet to root my Transformer because it remains a state-of-the-art device that is actively being updated by Asus. I am eagerly awaiting the Netflix app which is being blocked on rooted devices. Will there be a way to get around them blocking it? Perhaps, but if so it will probably be a PITA to deal with as Netflix is sure to try and keep the app functional only on approved (i.e. non-rooted) devices. Overclocking, putting a custom theme on the device, or blocking ads might be nice, but I'd rather ride the good wave for now. When there's a compelling reason to root it I will.

[Defy General] Nietzschean:
Hi guys,

I was wondering how you update your contacts with their facebook pictures and such, since for some reason only a few of them seem to be synced and I can't seem to control when to refresh it and such (the names match and such, that can't be the problem).

edit: I found out how to do it by manually joining profiles to contact names. However, the first contact in my list is called "1 eigenaar" ("1 owner") which has my home phone number in case my phone would get lost. Is there a way to link your own facebook profile to one of your contacts? Also, can you link contacts to a facebook account of a person that isn't in your friend list?

Lastly, is there a way to make contacts appear with their nicknames in the name list without having to put the nickname in one of the normal (first/last) name fields?

Thanks
[Defy General] feh_pexto:
Sure man! just install the facebook app from maket it will ask about the sync. To link numbers just enter the contact then on menu, click on "edit" then choose "sync" :D

About the nicknames, I can't help :/

[Defy General] Kawadude:
Hey Nietzschean ,

could U tell me how u manually joined the facebook profiles to your contacts ?

I'm also on CM7 but i can't find a way to do this.

Thx
[Defy General] daniel.galinkin:
I think mine actually merged themselves, at least the ones with the same name.
[Defy General] F.Ace:
First uninstall your facebook apps from your phone

restart the phone

and install again from market.

when you finish the installation just open it and the apps will ask to sync friends from your contact.
[Defy General] boonhoong:
Go to your contacts, "Edit" your contacts. Then when you're in the "Edit" mode, hit the "Menu" key on your phone. Then use "Join" and search for the appropriate facebook profile.

Pssst for dumb folks that didnt get joke read in different section where a guy was testing a 3D and asking for help to port info. The guys who got there hands on it were couple best dev 4g has who had hand in rooting the original. No doubt wthey will keep quiet til launch, but id say if what i read was true and pretty certain it is they prolly already have it done. Besides htc has been awesome with whole issue anyways. Very tiny chance they cant get past it htc will step up as always and solve it asap. Moto photon is simply a nightmare for motorola. They already losing stock big time now with this issue? 3D will outsell it 20 to 1. The rest will buy sammy. I was in bb in boro tn and the bb playbook? Lol dude said they have yet to sell ONE! Moto deserves same fate after that dont like locked bootloader buy elsewhere. Uhhh sure thing ill do exactly that you freaking noob!

[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Ok so I've been reading these forums and time after time I see posts about the evo 3d being slow and the gs2 just being a beast..am I missing something bc last I checked the 3d hasn't been released yet and the only review I saw was on wirefly the 3d looked very impressive to me. No indication of lag or slow down? I still believe in HTC..I don't think they would release a ****ty or out classed phone..not saying the gs2 isn't sick but I just don't see what makes it so much better..I've seen a lot of quality/screen issues on their forums..
[HTC EVO 3D] aaronpoweruser:
i think the lag they are seeing is based on the governors operation of the a sync cores but there is no doubt that the gs2 is faster
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
I just don't know how that can be said without the phone being released yet..no one has used it..I think it solely based on the benchmarks which are inaccurate based in the a sync cores..even a gs2 fan can't deny that..

[HTC EVO 3D] Zorachus:
I sure hope the EVO-3D is on par with the Galaxy S 2 smoothness and lag free, because the Sensation reviews sure make it seem choppy, and just an average phone, nothing spectacular.

Specs are similar. If it is laggy it may be software related. But I don't for see any issues.

Correct with those specs. It should fly..I think the devs will make it ridiculous with a slick custom Rom and a oc kernel

I think GS2 is out in Europe already. Saw a video of it on Phonedog youtube channel.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
For some reason people are thinking that this phone is the same as the Sensation even though they are 2 different phones.What they are thinking is: So since the sensation has lag the evo 3d must have lag too. When in reality nobody will know until more reviews hit.
[HTC EVO 3D] LearnIIBurn:
I'm pretty sure any of us prior Evo4G owners are going to be quite happy with the performance of the new Qualcomm dual in here, increase in RAM, Adreno 220 GPU (YES!) and higher screen res. I can't wait for this phone. I love Samsung displays, but I really am not a fan of their handsets for some reason.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
It's been out for weeks
[HTC EVO 3D] sprinttouch666:
What lag? I've watched every video i can and I've never seen lag. no doubt the gs2 is faster? Evo 3D isn't even out yet, not sure you can make a claim like that. (but i think the E3D will beat the gs2 in the end)
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Just because the phone isn't out does not mean nobody has EVER used it. :rolleyes:

If you do some research you will see people that have used BOTH phones and side by side the GS2 is SIGNIFICANTLY faster in all of the benchmark apps out there. I know that does not mean much, and it is not to say that the EVO 3D will be slow or laggy, but the GS2 *IS* going to be faster stock.

I believe once the EVO 3D gets rooted and we are able to overclock and remove the bloatware it definitely has the potential to outperform the GS2 assuming that the Samsung doesn't get as much development support as HTC phones get. I am getting the EVO 3D, but I am not expecting it to perform like a GS2.
[HTC EVO 3D] ttieder:
No video says the sgs 2 is faster then the evo 3d there only against the sensation which is not the same phone

One word: sense

[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
The only difference between the Sensation and the EVO 3D that will affect performance is 768 RAM vs 1 GB.
[HTC EVO 3D] ttieder:
I asked bob at wirefly if there was any lag at all he said no and said its faster then the sensation
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
That is not true..they use different displays..both qhd yes but different panels..they also have different cameras..and of course the RAM ,those benchmarks.don't mean **** ..I know that people love to brag about there high bull**** quadrant scores but it is useless..honestly I thought the sensation held up very well against the gs2 ..the reviews online were so ridiculously biased I couldn't watch them. The first thing they do is "oh I'm.gonna run some benchmarks here" in Their British accent..in one comparison he was comparing messaging apps and the two apps were basically identical besides one be black background (gs2) and the sensation white..and he was like the gs2 clearly wins here again. Anyways side by side i did not see the epic difference in speed between the two..they seemed to be very similiar running through tasks IMHO..both very fast and smooth..and people act like 3d is no big deal but I think its pretty cool..its easy to call it a gag when your phone can't do it..and its an option u don't need to use it..but I'm sure it will "wow" the friends at work
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Read my post again. I am not saying there is lag and I am saying that it is faster than the Sensation. But the only thing to make the 3D faster than the Sensation is the extra little bit of RAM. Also the performance of either of those phones is not up to par with that of the GS2 from what I have personally seen in side by side comparisons.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Your probably bloated..I don't get Wtf you are talking about and if you don't like it go aosp after root..sense is.def most usable and best looking UI out of them all.

Seven words: come up with something better than that
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
By bloated he means the phone comes with many 'extra' apps that Sprint or HTC provide that usually nobody uses and runs in the background using up memory and CPU. He did not say sense was bad. Sense is miles ahead of Touchwiz but the fact remains that STOCK, it is very bloated. None of those reviews online were rooted phones. Obviously once we achieve root and are able to remove this bloatware, and overclock the CPU to at least 1.5 ghz, this thing will fly. But I believe we are currently comparing stock phones.

Some of you guys need to read more slowly and clearly before jumping to conclusions or trying to add your own meaning as to what the other person is saying. :rolleyes:
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Hahah

Pure win

sent from anything but an iPhone
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
I read his two words very carefully and he in no way said "the apps that are loaded on the phone suck and Sprint puts too much bloatware" he said "sense sis bloated" sense has nothing to do with the apps that are preinstalled..most phones come with carrier specific apps from the "carrier" nothing to do with sense. So maybe you should read a little closer before you play hero ..he was obviously bashing sense UI
[HTC EVO 3D] srb7215:
Has the Sensation even dropped yet? Unless I am mistaken it releases next week. So we are basically arguing over 3 phones that aren't even available yet (SG2 only in Europe).

And doesn't matter anyway. Give me root to the EVO3D and this beast will fly. For the couple years I have been on the Hero and if they can make that thing run like they have then I have no qualms about how amazing the 3D will be.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
I mean.......the SGS2 still uses 800x480 and has more RAM than the Sensation. With a lower resolution screen and more RAM, why WOULDN'T it perform better?

However, the EVO 3D will have the same amount of RAM, how much of that is dedicated to other things has yet to be seen. Also, we all know how much Sense UI affects benchmark scores and with version 3.0, I don't expect that to be any different. Samsung's TouchWhiz UI blows and not being nearly the same size, customized, and awesome compared to Sense 3.0, I gather the EVO 3D will utilize the dual cores much more with its interface than Samsung.

In other words: It wouldn't surprise me that the SGS2 would perform better in benchmarks. Slap an AOSP ROM on both like CM, then let's talk.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Totally agree..of course a stripped down Rom would run fast....I mean all that nice eye candy on 3.0 comes at a cost..but isn't that the point of having all the power under the hood..so we can run intricate Roms and UI..but i still have yet to see a vid of the e3d lagging.
[HTC EVO 3D] toxicfumes22:
I want to argue with everyone here, call you a f@g, your phones stupid, this phone is better than that phone, but they are both awesome phones, quadrant is gay but it is also awesome, benchmark doesn't mean anything to me but it will dictate what phone i get, Im dumb but your retarded, and all this stupid arguing about a phone that hasn't been released is dumb.....but the (EVO 3d)(SG2) is better.

OK i covered both side for myself so I am totally satisfied. :D

If you laughed thank me, haha.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Same. I'm not in the least impressed by synthetic benchmarks that have no relevance in real world usage. Even with my EVO 4G and its varied benchmark scores, it was just fine and never struggled a bit with everything I threw at it. Had it OCd to 1.26 GHz and was a happy camper. The only thing that bothered me was battery life, which I hope to be somewhat better on the 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
That's the thing..ppl talk about lag and my 4g doesn't lag at all..and it a first gen chipset..so it only makes sense that thing phone will fly..the only thing the 4g lacks is a good gpu but the 220 will take care of that..I'm not a Sammy hater..I'm just a HTC fan and I hate to see bashing of a phone that's not even released..how can two almost identically specced phones be so different..the only real difference will be I. The user experience for the most part
[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
Man what's the point? If anyone has seen the wirefly video of the evo 3d then you know its fast and that was a pre production model not even the final product. I swear when they handed out common sense some people got skipped.

that's because obviously you got all the common sense
[HTC EVO 3D] srb7215:
The point is why are we arguing over what these phones are when no one has actually played with one. People are saying that the SG2 is better than the Sensation even though no one has had both (or probably even one) in their hands to compare the two. Such a waste of time.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
That was what I've been.saying..no one has used the e3d to make assumptions about its performance..all speculation
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I said sense is bloated, I meant sense is bloated...i will be installing the first aosp rom I come across as soon as I can. Perhaps this is another of those circumstances where it depends on the phone but every sense rom I've tried is slower and more battery hungry (and laggier) than cm....Ud...MIUI...etc...period. The kingdom roms especially so. I'm not trying to start a holy war here...just stating my own personal observations.

And I tried to like sense, really I did...then I dumped the sense launcher figuring that would help..and it did, a little....but cm and adwEx out lp are just sup much faster, smoother and easier on the battery...calm down fellas

[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Like I said earlier if u install a Rom that is absolutely bare bones of course it would be faster..but current phones barely lag ..the difference in speed will be negligible..fraction of a second for certain functions..I tried cm7 and I thought it was boring and didn't see the speed difference everyone talks about..I didn't keep it lomg and I know everyone can't be wrong about it but I enjoy sense and like a phone that has some cool stuff going on differentiating it from other boring uis..and I.never wanted to start a comparison ..I was asking why people were insinuating that the 3d was laggy..
[HTC EVO 3D] Wekko306:
Actually, both phones (SGS2 and Sensation) are released here in The Netherlands and I've played a few minutes with both of them. Both phones are really nice but the SGS2 indeed feels snappier.

I don't want to go too much off-topic, but is there are significant difference in real performance when comparing Sense to other ROMs? I know benchmarks on Sense are usually lower but does that really mean performance in for instance graphics-intensive games is lower on a Sense ROM?
