I am using a Miui rom and my HD2 is faster and has more possibilities then my colleques at my work. My job: Telecom Expert at a dutch Telecom Company called TRTC Vriezenveen. I can do things a normal Iphone 4 can't do. In my home, the only things i can't do with it are : controlling my washingmachine (no bluetooth in it) and vacuum cleaning (also no bluetooth or wifi in my vacuum cleaner) i have a self made

Vortexbox for .Flac music and i use Twonky Media server and player for movies on my plasma tv. I can control the Vortexbox completely with my HD2. Also XBMC and Twonky i can control completely. in my car i play music from my hd2 via ad2p. .flac quality

@ OP

I'm sorry to say that you are either mistaken, misinformed, using bad roms or smoking some serious crack if you think that Android has bad latency issues.

I agree some roms like DHD ones before you let them settle lag a bit but I haven't experienced any sort of latency at least nothing that stands out anyway.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
ok you like the iphone well done sheep,

now on to my point

WHY have you come to the HD2 section which is a Windows Mobile to bash an operating system that was hacked and made to run on a phone that runs a completely different OS????

you my friend FAIL
[HD2 General] backlashsid:
how is the battery life dude ? via SD ??
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
Might be some lag between the two however I have never really used an iphone for long before so I wouldn't know. However it is unfair for you to say that the lag is so bad or much worse in comparison to the iphone. Why? Because android is already so smooth, minus sense. Plus, can a iphone play a 720p Youtube video?

$1 gets you a reply

Well my pc runs Windows 98 quicker than it runs Windows 7.

Doesn't mean that I want to use windows 98 just because it's faster... it's outdated and has a c**p UI.... Just like the iPhone! ;)

Speed isn't everything and I know there are HD2 Android roms out there which are faultless... must be down to an iPhone user not knowing how to install a ROM!

History of an iPhone user:

Day 1: Oh, Shiny toy...

Day 2: Shiny toy play music...

Day 3: Awww, me gotta pay for stuff...

Day 4: Me jailbroke it, me a God...

Day 5: Ummm what now?!?!?!

Day 6: Let's bash other phones since I have just wasted my money on this plastic piece of turd!

Day 7: Take iPhone back on the pretence that it has a fault and get a decent phone!

See, it's easy to bash other phones but as was previosly mentioned, Android WAS NEVER designed to run on the HD2 and it's still a WIP.

I find the OP incredibly anally retentive for ignoring the hard work which has gone into development for this device. I have no latency issues which causes me to log onto a forum and open a new thread just to complain about it - get a life!

My advice to the OP: Stick to a couple of tin cans with string and be happy with what you have!

:mad: RANT OVER! :D

You need to sync the iphone with itunes to play movies or music, that is piece of s#*t phone right off the bat.
[HD2 General] pika2chu:
I dont own an iphone now and I am not a apple fanboy. I am not talking specifically about hd2. Its really a nice phone.. and I dont blame anyone for this. I am using the latest typhoon cyanogenmod 7 which is too great, I think hd2 is the smoothest android phone i have ever seen due to our chefs...

Basically I was developing an android app similar to smule's ocarina app in iphone. but couldnt make realtime recording and playback of sounds.. It lags about 250ms.. Even i tested in samsung galaxy s. Every android phone lags and has high latency.I defnitely know its not the phone's fault. Its a known issue in android software development..

I didnt yet develop for wp7. i think it wont lag as it is very smooth compared to android.

Even compare it with wp7 and any good nand rom you know.scroll through the screen.. the same phone(hd2) performs more smoothly in wp7.

Now dont say me "I am a wp7 fanboy".

Really sorry for my bad english grammar!
[HD2 General] thenotoriouspie:
As amazing as it sounds to have the option to control your washing machine from your phone uh what's the point lol or your vacuum cleaner at that matter?
[HD2 General] motoi_bogdan:
hahah, i've built a remote controlled robot that can be maneuvered from the phone itself via VNC and by using various internal cameras, sensors and lasers can be deployed to navigate itself to the kitchen and ask whomever is there for a beer + deliver it back to me in the living room. Operating this thing requires 2 hd2's (one for navigation commands, the other for viewing camera and sensors info) and it's kind of playing an intensive pc game with lots of control keys.

Man... that's useless! controlling the washing machine via bluetooth can be useful. :p
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
pmsl!

Dude, That is so getting added to my signature, At least for while anyway! :D

[edit] damn sig character limit :(
[HD2 General] eenbox:
I see his point but I do not think he formulated it correctly.

When you use Apple iPad or iPhone transitional effects are "silky smooth" BUT that does not mean Android sucks!!! I really prefer smoothness over capability but in my case with HD2 and MDJs NAND Ginger ROM I did not have to give up either or! It works smooth enough for my taste and capability to run it on WinMo native device is even more AWESOME!!!

I do not think there will ever be perfect phone that has everything we want for continuous year in the future but that's life. Find me a car that's perfect in every aspect... Maybe Apple should make them too to run "smooth" :) ...

Regardless, point is if you really cannot leave with Android, why don't you try Apple products (iPad and iPhone)? See it for yourself and decide. My decision as 75% of the world is that Android owns apple in every way possible - and it will for long years ahead :)

So long Appleish Smoothish fans :)
[HD2 General] buru898:
The reason why the old first generation iPhone would scroll faster even with it's slow processor is because the old iPhone had a piece of **** screen resolution compared to the hd2.

My HTC Wing scrolls through menus like a champ but who the **** cares? That phone is now a piece of **** and out dated. The processor doesn't need a lot of power to speed up a 320x240 screen as compared to a 480x800 one.

Go do your homework as to why there's "lag" when comparing different phones. Same **** when you have a crappy ass computer so you have to turn down the graphics or play on a smaller resolution for it to go smooth.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
I actually felt my brain cells committing suicide for every word of the OP I read.
[HD2 General] koolxx:
it looks like richy99 is having a wet dream of android again. hes as bad as one of those android fanboys who thinks that android is the fastest o/s. but what he fails to realize is that ios on the 1st gen phone is FASTER in scrolling than the latest android... duhhh...
[HD2 General] spike15_mk:
! LOL DUDE ! You make my day. Do you have any idea what are you talking about. OMG. Do not post something that funny. Just for your information results in Android are better then ones in WinMo, and sometimes better then devices with stock Android ROM. Or I have another example for you. I own 512 LEO, and I have Android on it (Tyween's ROM). Now if you run Quadrant (benchmarking program), you can see that HD2 has better performance then HTC Desire (with STOCK 2.2 Android ROM).

Now just to finish this: To the opener of this thread, man if you do not like Android it is yours right, do not open new thread just to tell (or intimidating) us.

And to all remember this.....Do not FEED the trolls XDDD
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
seems like you don't know what your talking about either when believing in quadrant scores.

quadrant is testing processing speed and gpu speed but it doesn't test the crappy drivers we have on the hd2.

i would prefer the phone with working multitouch and agps that runs everything as it should instead of a phone that has high quadrant score and no working multitouch and various other things due to bad drivers.

sure the hd2 is faster when you compare it to a galaxy 3 or wildfire but if you take a phone with similar hardware components you can see very soon that the hd2 wasn't designed for android.
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
Yeah because its resolution is was **** and its UI was extremely simple, ie no widgets, no themeing, nothing, just a ****ty black screen with rows of icons!!

Well looks like its x3 then because you dont know what your talking about either. Multitouch works fine, apgs works with exception to some roms (afaik), And as far as I can tell the HD2 runs Android better (not just faster) then many native Android devices.

Even if somebody was to offer a swap for a brand new Desire HD tomorrow I would 100% keep my HD2, infact I've been thinking of buying a second one as a backup.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
you didn't understand anything that was written here.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
I'd prolly swap for the DHD, sell it, then buy an HD2 for cheap and go for some sushi.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
multitouch is working? there is support for 2 fingers and not more. gps is working but not agps. and as i said. it's running android better than a galaxy 3 or wildfire but not better than a nexus with the same hardware components.

edit: ok think agps should work now with tytung's new gps libs. but this is only out for about a week.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
multi- does have a definition of "more than one"

What app/game do you use that requires more than 2 point touch? I've yet to see one on WP7, iOS, or Android (I'm sure they exist, but I have never used nor needed one).

GPS works fine for me, better than my iPhone's GPS so I'm not complaining.

edit: my CM7 ROM also works better than the 2.3 stock on a nexus one, and just as well as any CM7 ROM on the Nexus One. I have yet to see another Android device outperform my phone, or any device actually. The Nexus S with CM7 probably would I guess.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
if you want to use a psx emulator for example you will need more than 2 points for some games. but all this was just an example that you can't say that something is better just because of a simple benchmark test. i had much higher results with old sd roms from the beginning of the hd2 android era but they weren't as smooth and good working as the nand builds of today which give me a much lower result in quadrant.

and i'm fine with my gps and everything else, too. but there is a difference between gps and agps. and that agps didn't work before the release of the new gps libs last week is a fact. and i read that the new libs are buggy sometimes and cause reboots.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
well ok but I thought everyone just used a wii/ps3 remote for PSX emulators anyways.

benchmarks are garbage, I agree, but what I am saying is that the HD2 can function as well as any other Android device at this point, and can also dual-boot WP7 which no other Android device can do. So for someone to claim it's "so buggy" and this and that is just plain misinformation.

If someone wants to say "I ditched my HD2 because it didn't have agps support in most ROMs and I couldn't play a PSX ROM using 3 fingers" then I'll grant them that, although it sounds stupid to me.

My point is that with the right GB ROM this the HD2 functions about as well as any other Android device and just as smooth as an iPhone 4.

If you want to talk about Sense 3 ports and all that mess, well that's something else.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
i agree in every point you mentioned and i wouldn't trade my hd2 for any other phone at the moment.

all i wanted to say with my first post here is that it is stupid to say the hd2 is better just because it has a higher quadrant score. everything else were just examples to show that there are points were native android devices are superiour to the hd2 at this moment.

i don't use a psx emulator on my phone but if i would i wouldn't want to carry my ps3 controller with me all the time. but again this was just an example to show where more than 2 touchpoints would be needed.
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
Err dude, 2 = multi! End of!! , agps is working, end of!!

And have you tried NexusHD2 rom?
[HD2 General] spike15_mk:
It seems that you are the one that do not knows what your talking about. What is wrong with multitouch? Have you ever experienced problem with Android (Except 720p recording) Please en light us.
[HD2 General] ManTheDan:
Ive never had an issue with latency on my hd2?!, and the iphone/ipod/ipad are paired with one type of hardware unlike most android devices so the OS will always run smooth because nothing changes not to mention the Iphones OS is so limited and i don't need to open an app to get updates on facebook or twitter...etc instead i can view them all from my home screen. And i also hate the fact that apple copied android and is adding a notification bar... Apple designs there OS so you have to do what "they" want you to do, Android makes an OS/Device so you can do what "you" want, thats why you can personalize it and i don't mean changing your wallpaper i mean widgets, pretty soon apple is going to make there "own" version of widgets too judging by the fact they added the notification bar....oh and i can also remove my battery and replace it....Apple = Fail, but there name makes money so it works for them.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
I did. At the monent i'm switching between ndt miui and hyperdroid cm7. These work best for me. And i have no problems with my hd2 and am fine with it's abilities. I already explained the two other points just read the other posts. And if you are running nexus hd2 agps isn't working for you if you didn't update the libs on your own.

But the point why this begun was benchmark stuff and i stick to my opinion there. You can't say a device is better just because of a higher score.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
If you would have read the other posts you would have been enlightened and didn't have to ask again. I already said that i'm fine with everything and that these were examples of things that work better on native devices.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Yeah this dude is right, agps only works with one brand new lib, and if for some reason you needed more than 2 multi-touch than you couldn't do it.

Other than that you're golden.

And if you really want to get pedantic, "multi" has many definitions: More than one is one of them, more than 2 is another, so you're both right.

But to claim that Android is buggy blah blah is just ignorance.
[Thunderbolt General] want a droid:
The majority of roms both GB and Froyo have the 6 signal bar mod. I was wondering if someone, maybe a dev, could let us know what the scale is?

Here's just an example from what I've noticed:

3 bars: -99 dBm

4 bars: -92 dBm

5 bars: -81 dBm
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
It's relative to whatever the developer feels it should be set to.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosralr:
Something is wrong with my Nexus One.

There is no way it will charge if the phone is left on. It will only charge if:

-I turn the phone off.

-If I have left the charger plugged in then I must remove it and plug it back in. If I turn the phone off and plug it in to the charger that was already plugged in then it will not charged. The charger must be removed from the wall and then re-plugged back in.

Any ideas? Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ethan Allison:
Have you tried a different charger? How about plugging it into your computer?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosralr:
When it started with my first charger I went and bought another. Same thing.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] albanianbrotha:
I've been using my phone recently, and I just noticed that whenever I talk on the phone, whether or not I had speakerphone selected during the phone call, the sound comes through the speaker.

Has anyone experienced this? Is there any way to fix it? I'm in KD1 deodexed and rooted with Bali kernel uv.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
I have had this issue once. Never again, and I didnt to anything to resolve it. I simply floored the phone over (screen facing away from face) and proceeded with the call! If I rememder correctly I was on wifi calling and it was received while in another application (not sure which one). Since it only happened once I just wrote it off. Is it constant for you? What are you doing on your phone when it happens? receiving calls? out going calls? All calls? Are you accessing other apps? More info would be great.

On the moon our weekends are so advanced they encompass the entire week
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sgyee:
Its the Ball kernel and wifi calling. Shut off your wifi and the problem disappears.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] albanianbrotha:
So it's the Bali kernel...I've since given the phone to another family member who just uses it as a...phone lol. Can I put the stock kernel back on it because he needs both wifi calling and the calling to not go through speakerphone..

I installed the ROM and absolutely love it! That guy is simply amazing and now I'm patiently awaiting Synergy, as I think that is gonna be a little more stable than this is. Here's my question- did a full backup through ROM manager originally of Myn Warm 2.2, and my SD card and put it on my hard drive for safe keeping. I installed the ROM no problem, but why should I put all that back on? I dont really want any of it, unless I need it? And what steps should I take if I want to go back to MYN Warm 2.2 (my backup of it) because my SD card is partitioned and whatnot? ANY help would be greatly appreciated!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimReaper24:
Just copy the nan back to your backup folder on the sd card. When done wipe and reflash your backup. I use AMON 2.3 and my card is partitoned.

The screws on my wildfire are torx 5 aka T5 screws, so u need a screwdriwer or bit that is T5.

EDIT: Theyre T5, not T6 as i previously mentioned. I messed up with numbers, my old nokia E51 had T6 screws, but wildfire has T5. I just tested, T5 fits and T6 doesnt.
[Wildfire General] DeletedUser99284:
Put a fingernail in the hole, pull back a bit to make the crack between the back cover and the phone about 1mm. Then just move the fingernail towards the audio socket and pull back gently again. Works every time.

Oh if you mean the back cover, just put your nail in hole and pull the halves apart.

I thought you guys might want to know about this: I went to Best Buy yesterday to get a Wiimote for my G2x and came across this much smaller controller:

It's the length of the phone, it's light, and you can put it in your pocket. It doesn't work with the Wiimote Controller APP in either Froyo or CM7, but it does work fine with Bluez IME in CM7. I haven't tried the nunchuk attachment as I'm just using it to play SNES and MAME games.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Thwiipp:
So how is that Power A Wii remote working out for you? I see mixed reviews for use on the Wii with sync issues and lag, but if it work fine on an android phone, i may think about trying since its nice and small.

[Galaxy S II General] Jinoxide:
Are you just looking to output sound from the 3.5mm jack, or video as well?

If both, I think you may be out of luck, as as far as I know the 3.5mm jack in this case is a standard mic + stereo sound (+antenna) thing.
