[General Questions and Answers] Tuskuno:
I have the HTC HD7 and I think you'll like it, the OS is AMAZING!!! And I saw it for 280* around Amazon.com

If you want android, but stick to the hTC family, they you should think about the hTC Desire HD. But if it's too expensive, the X10 from Sony will be also a good choice, and I saw it around 270* on Amazon. But the downside of Android is, that it is not sure when you get updates while WP7 (HTC HD7...) is.

Maybe, you should think about the iPhone, that thing has updates. And WP7 is also easy to update.

Since I don't know where you live and if you are a professional hacker or a noob, I just gave you recommendations that should fir almost anybody.

* New, unused price in EUR. Price may change depending on when you buy.

[General Questions and Answers] Moonystorm:
Of course,

EDIT As the guy abov333 said, The x10 is great too! But its best if you flash the miui rom that just came out for it

it adds multitouch and such stuff.

AND Miui On the desire has OTA updates!! :3

The HD2 is an amazing device,

so many hacks available for it c:

i had one But traded it since the size was a little to big for what i like,

I would for sure check if you can get an new HD2 (i mean used x3)

Or maybe the desire HD

Just as the Desire! I have one its an good size and there are tons of roms

just as CM7 and miui

even a sense 3.0 rom is out!

I would look for those since they will help you to continue with hacking in the future

[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
I've had a HD2 for over a year and a half now, and have been using Android on it for nearly half that time. I've also played with WP7 on it, and was utterly disappointed. I loved WM6.5 so I expected a LOT from WP7, but it simply didn't deliver.

The Desire HD is the closest thing to a HD2 out there, but is obviously a native Android device. Android does get updated regularly (especially if you're a regular on this site), as I'm sure you know. Seriously, no disrespect to Tuskuno's opinion - I just disagree with it.

I'm just about to get a Samsung Galaxy S II on contract, but if I were going for an off-the-shelf stock phone, it would probably be the Desire HD.
[General Questions and Answers] Feeshie:
You can't go wrong with getting a Nexus. A Nexus One is like $260 on ebay and has a great development community along with frequent updates because it's a google experience.
[General Questions and Answers] rami78:
Nexus

That was my first choice, then I read about how its not truely multitouch and is problamatic in multitouch games, so i decided against it.

the desire Z (tmobile g2) looks like a viable option, priced around 200 on ebay

If you want to have the latest version of android in your phone, i suggest you pick one supported by Cyanogen. I dont have enought posts yet to include links, but there's a relevant list over at "cyanogenmod dot com slash devices".

Dude believe me and just stick with the hd2 a lot of development space towork with plus u get the best of three words wp7, wm, Android. The hd7 is virtually the same thing as the hd2 with there old school screens but the hd7 lacks development at the moment.

Have to second that.

Until something as good as the HD2 comes along, I can't think what I'll go for next.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
I received a replacement unit today from the June batch.

I opened it up and realized that it looks a bit different. Maybe I'm just imagining it?

1. The backplate with the texture on it looks light brown, almost matches the brown rim/bezel. I could have sworn it was a darker almost gray color on the previous unit.

2. The Asus logo on the back was a chrome finish, now it has faint diagonal lines cut into it giving it a different look.

Someone please look at their unit and tell me if I'm just imagining this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
A picture would help.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] UKseagull:
+1 for some pics please and anything else that may have changed. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cdpriest:
Mine sounds exactly like what you're explaining; it even has the same very faint lines on the ASUS logo cut in it diagonally. BTW my tablet is only 2½ week old.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
Please check if you have any bleed on the screen
[Eee Pad Transformer General] heavy16:
Hi,

Please check the light bleeding issue and take pictures if it's possible .
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Freelancerx:
mine has the same diagonal lines on the asus logo, mine is also about 2 weeks old, got it from best buy, unfortunately i have some noticeable light bleed. I'm a premier silver member so im going to wait 40 days before exchanging it for another one. I love my tablet but I hope the next one has better quality control.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Don't have my early-stock 16GB in front of me to check, but my 32GB is only a few days old, and has the faint diagonal lines on the logo. I am unsure if my 16GB has the same, but I'd be *extremely* surprised if Asus has changed this, as it'd cost a lot of money to change molds for a barely-noticeable change. I'm fairly certain the plastic on my 16GB is brown, the same as my 32GB though.

And both units have an almost identical, minimal level of light bleed.

The biggest difference between the two (beyond memory) is that the newer unit shipped with the power supply faceplate already attached. (No, it's not second hand, both units were factory sealed.)

Apparently Asus realized they were costing themselves returns and/or tech support calls from folks who couldn't believe how hard you had to push to attach the faceplate, and thought their chargers were faulty. Hence they seem to have decided to pre-attach the faceplates to save on support / return costs. At least, that's my guess, but I'd put money on it.
[General Questions and Answers] ikheetkoen:
Hello there,

I have recently received an HTC HD2 from a friend of a friend of mine. It didn't work and was stuck at a black screen.

After receiving the HD2 I saw that the HD2 was in a boot loop of some sort. Every time I would turn it on it would vibrate once, and then turn off. Then it would vibrate once again and it turned off again. The backlighting of the screen would turn on, and then after a certain period of time (maybe like 5 seconds) they turn off again.

Somehow (by luck, maybe) I managed to boot the phone into windows mobile 6.5. I still got a black screen, but I could hear the sound that the phone makes after it boots windows. I then attached the phone to the computer and downloaded the latest HTC HD2 Windows 6.5 ROM and flashed it to the phone as standard procedure. Now, every time I turn the phone on I hear the sounds of windows booting up and I can connect with it using windows mobile device center. I also hear sounds when I push the buttons on the phone.

TL;DR-> Black screen, phone reacts to input.

Question: will replacing the screen fix the phone? Or is it some other component failing. Booting windows proves the phone isn't bricked, right?

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] spxc:
Might Help

Hi, you can always try to boot into three colored screen, by turning the phone on while holding the DownVol key at the same time. If this doesn't work you would need to buy a new screen to see if that fixes the problem.

Heres a link to amazon where you can buy a new LCD, you can also search how to change the screen on Youtube :)

"This version of the device cannot be updated"

Current firmware version : PDA:JV9/PHONE:JV9/CSC:JV9(KOR)

btw im from malaysia, i just don't know why my firmware version is not (XME):confused: does this means that it cannot be updated? plz help me>< im confused :(

Thanks in advance><
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kova4a:
Of course it cannot be updated with kies because there is no update for JV9. Also, Samsung hasn't officially released 2.3.4, so there are no 2.3.4 kies updates. Just use odin and flash whatever you want

Hi all !!

Is that possible to made a rom with the htc sense in the home and the beautiful application menù of the galaxy s II ? The HTC menù is not that great at all.

By the way I have never understood why that can't allow to change the wallpaper onbackground...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabryeludrea:
Hello XDA!

I am a big fan of ADW Launcher and recently I achieved the EX version of this wonderful app which has even more settings and greater look.

I created myself a stripped down base ROM and, of course, included the ADW Launcher EX in the system apps.

The problems begins with the following: when the ROM first boots, I see a changelog message for the ADW and then I see the effect of the implicit settings, the dock is messed up, the apps are shown in different places on the home screens, strange opening animation, etc. When I go to ADW Settings I see the option to backup/restore the settings to/from the SD card, therefore it generates 2 .xml files, which is great. But it would be awesome if I could include those files somewhere in the ROM, so on the first boot everything will look according to my desires.

That being said, could anyone point me in the right direction and tell me where can I put those files or what can I do in order to get that result? I wold appreciate a lot.

Thank you in advance,

Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikko96:
Backup your data and do a factory reset. If it doesnt work,reflash whole rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabryeludrea:
Thanks for your interest in helping me!

My question is how can I make it work as i want from the first time after I install a ROM.

As I said, there is an options in settings which can backup/restore the actual configuration by generating 2 .xml files on the SD card. I realize is as easy as 1, 2, 3 to restore my settings from the SD right after I install a new ROM. But I want it easier than that.

I want to know where can i put those .xml files into a ROM's filesystem in order to obtain that effect at first boot, without the need to restore from the SD.

I hope everything is clear now, thanks again!

Had the same problem, try changing the channel on your router, that worked for me (from 11 to 3 wpa/wpa2, b/g in my case). The stock rom had unstable wifi signal for me also, CM7 has much more stable signal and had fewer situations of not detecting or connecting, but wifi signal is still weak as hell... gotta live with that
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Features:

-Voodoo lagfix by supercurio! (all partitions converted to ext4)

-Voodoo sound by supercurio! (ported to the Infuse by the man himself!)

-CWM w/ ext4 support and Voodoo lagfix config options built in

-Root script built in (Just install Superuser and you're rooted!)

-Lowmemkiller tweaks

-Background writeout tweaks

-Tunneling support

-USB RNDIS support (required by some third party tethering apps)

-Init.d script support

v5 Changlog:

-Fixed ffc

-Fixed tunneling support

-Added USB RNDIS support (required by some third party tethering apps)

v7 Changlog:

-Added Voodoo sound (ported to Community Kernel by the man himself, supercurio, so you know it's going to work as intended)

Note: Please donate to supercurio. He took time to port his work to the Infuse and he doesn't even have the device. If he sees a sudden influx of donations, he'll know you appreciate his work and will want to port his future projects to the Infuse as well.

v8 Changlog:

-Updated Voodoo sound driver (v10)

READ CAREFULLY

1) The first boot after installing this kernel will take a LONG time. It's converting your partitions from RFS to ext4.

2) Before flashing, make sure you have at least 20% battery remaining. The file system conversion will stop if your battery level falls below 10%.

3) Before flashing anything that includes the stock kernel you should disable Voodoo lagfix. The stock kernel can't read ext4 file systems and won't boot if you forget to disable the lagfix. See below for instructions.

How To Disable Voodoo Lagfix (2 Methods):

-Method 1: Create a file or folder named "disable-lagfix" in the Voodoo folder on your internal SD card and reboot.

-Method 2: Boot into CWM recovery and select "voodoo lagfix" > "disable lagfix" > "reboot system now".

Flashing Instructions:

1) Make sure the drivers for the Infuse 4G are installed (installing Kies is the best way to accomplish this)

2) Download and unzip Odin_Community_Kernel_vX.zip

3) Run Odin3 v1.7.exe as administrator

4) Place your phone into download mode (power off and then press and hold both volume buttons while plugging in the USB cable)

5) Make sure your phone shows up in Odin as COM##

6) Click the PDA button and choose PDA_Community_Kernel_vXX.tar.md5

8) Press Start

Get involved with development!

While I do have a computer engineering degree and work as a software engineer, I admittedly don't have much experience with kernel development. Thus I want this kernel to be a community project so we can all learn from each other. If there's something you want to change, just fork, make your changes, and send me a pull request. Hopefully you can also build and test your changes before sending the pull request, but if you don't have an Infuse at the moment I will understand.

I do this for fun so you shouldn't feel any obligation to donate, but here's a link if you want to. Donations of any amount are very much appreciated.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
this is just the kernel, no need, its in 1.3.1. If you are running 1.3.0, you need to upgrade using the 1.3.0-1.3.1 upgrade odin flash. DO NOT use the 1.2.1-1.3.1 upgrade zip, it will brick you if you are on 1.3.0 and have lagfix enabled

[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
How exactly did you test that? What was the result?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
I tried flashing refused and then the lagifx kernel from red cwm, and it froze on the samsung logo.. tried again, went into mounts and storage, tried formatting system, and it did it instantly, reflashed refused and lagfix again, still hung on the samsung logo....

Reflashed infused 1.3.1 at that point, watching the install, the format system portion of your installer script went extremely fast, nothing happened, it flashed, and booted that time. but nothing is getting formatted...

flashed back to stock, watched your install of infused 1.3.1 on green cwm, and the format system took considerably longer, actually doing it, and then it booted clean, and enabled lagfix... so something fishy is going on with red CWM...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Wiping system finishing fast just means your system partition was already empty. This is the expected behavior.

Regardless, I don't doubt that there could be some issues with red. We'll see if the kernel I post tomorrow fixes anything.

Also, not sure what h8rifts current updater-script looks like, but he may need to update it to be compatible with red CWM.

Bionix flashed from red cwm is bricking too from infused 1.3.1... For the same reason... Its not wiping system
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kleeman7:
My red one works fine. I flashed bionix 1.2 which failed (still), so I wiped and reinstalled infused 1.3.1 full, it worked great. When you wipe do you select wipe data in cwm or just flash rom? Just flashing has never seemed to clear data for me. I always wipe data option in cwm. The only issue I see with cwm is rom manager not sending you into red, I deleted update.zip and rom manager stopped booting to cwm all together.

Go into the baseband app - it'll tell you at the top which one it is set to (CM7 comes set to USA as default I think) then just go & choose the correct one that's listed for your area.

There may be a few to choose from for your area eg for UK there's several in the list.
