Thanks for the heads up. It's about time they said something. Sounds good, but I'll wait till our Devs get there hands on it. Don't want the same issues some people are having with the EVO 4G update. Don't want to lose root, and have to wait.

Actually the EVO 4G owners are getting an update to fix the GB issues the same date that the Shift is getting the GB update

Well on the plus side netflix should work =)
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Netflix works for me and I've been on 2.3.4 for a while now. What I want is an updated kernel source for our devs to play with. Remember, HTC is listening. Tweet, Facebook, email them or whatever and ask that they please release the source :)

[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Yes, but if you do the OTA and have the new HBOOT you have to wait to root. I'd raher just wait for the Devs.

Also, looks like updates could be pushing out as early as the 17th

hope it has the updated sense. and we dont get the same exact thing the evo did
[EVO Shift 4G General] jwigley24:
i'm running GB shift deck ROM and the android version already says 2.3.4... is there a reason why we would want to update via OTA if we already have that version?
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
The leak that is over in the Android Dev section has sense 2.1. I wouldn't expect the final release to have anything different.

This will be good once the kernel source comes out, and we can get some overclocking going.

Also, once the kernel source comes out, this should give the kingdom rom port a shot in the arm, as we will be able to OC that rom, and make it run like it should run.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
+1. That ROM OC'd should be Bad Ass :)

[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
Shift deck is AOSP, right? This is the sense rom update. You should only update to this rom if you want a sense rom again.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
I will be waiting to install it as well. The root process on this phone is already involved enough. It will probably be a long time, if ever, before it gets rooted again after they patch the root method we are currently using.

The one thing I am curious about is if we are stock rooted will we be able to ignore the notifications about updating or is it going to constantly notify us to update forever?
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
According to Sprint's twitter account, the OTA is available now. I'm rooted, so I'm not going to mess with it, but for anyone who isn't rooted, and wants it, go get it...
[EVO Shift 4G General] tokuzumi:
If you turn off update notifications, you will never be notified.

[EVO Shift 4G General] gtkansan:
Not showing for me. We need someone to get it and pull the .zip so the devs can root the update...

[General Questions and Answers] WarrGrinn:
;)

Yes I know, noob here. I've looked in all the threads I can find and on the marketplace but I just can't seem to find the app I want for running (like the Running Room).

Basic premise is an Analog Clock face where you could mark the time you want to take (ie, 45min, 30min, 25min, etc) on a run and then mark multiple spots where you want an action to take place. ie, run for 3 minutes then walk for 1 min, or run for 2 and walk 2, or 1/1 etc and have different notification sounds possible for each that would not interfear with your musicplayer (ie, you can hear it but it wouldn't crash it or close it etc).

I know this is probally the wrong spot but I am unable to post in the right spot as I am 'noob'. I'm really surprised the Running Room or Garmin don't have an app like this as this is how their running works, in stages with walk breaks in between. Not really looking for gps, pedemeter etc just the basics, clock face and the ability to mark diff color points with notification sounds and to set time spent running (or infinite, just set #/# interval).

Anybody know of an app like this or have the ability to code one, the last coding I did was c64 with visual basic so I'm......lacking.....lol

Thank you,

Steve (WarrGrinn/Deathstalker/Thor 911)

[General Questions and Answers] WarrGrinn:
Thank you, Yes I've looked and the Adidas one, havn't really gotten too deep into it, more just want a 'click and play' type app where there is just the options I need without alot of extra's or accounts etc. I love the 'minimal' apps that xda members have made (clock, text , etc.) and was hoping for something as simple. Ah well, few more posts and I can post in another forum I guess :)
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Could you elaborate a bit more, describe some details?

What is the problem with the other running apps, they can't all require rocket science to use?

I'm always looking for ideas for new apps...

If there is nothing already there that fits that purpose, i might be willing to invest some hours :-).
[General Questions and Answers] WarrGrinn:
Sorry it took so long for a response, kinda lazy here :rolleyes:

I'm looking for a general 'clock' app, analog clock dial face with touch-points all around the dial, inner circle is seconds, outer circle is minutes. Ability to set a specific time for a run (ex, 45 min) and then divide that time into run/rest periods (ie, 5min run, then 1 min rest) along the dial and even have differing periods in the run (ie, after fourth run of 5 min a 3 min rest then 8 min run, etc).

Would like ability to set notification sounds (pick sound/s) for each 'event' along the run that inturrupt music/etc the phone is playing but not crash/stop it.

If it takes off advance stuff like compass/gps etc can be added but I'm just looking for a glorified stopwatch (analog style, like the old huge clocks that had tabs you could slide around for laps and times etc at the pool or gym) so I don't have to hog my mothers 'Garman' running sattelite watch, lol.:D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spidermagicat:
Hi,

I've recently updated the ROM on my phone to LeeDroid 3.0.7 and the radio to the latest 5.17.05.23.

The call volume is unusably low. Is the call volume related to the ROM or the radio?

What can I do to fix this?

BTW: Excellent work by LeeDroid on the ROM other than this!

(I'd also rather post this in HTC Desire android development but it seems I can't until I've nattered around here for 10 posts, any chance a mod could move it? :-D)

Thanks

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdub5:
As the title says, how do I do this? (is it possible). I'm currently on serendipity 7 and I love the rom. Problem I have is the same prob I have with all GB roms, and most I9000 roms, (I'm an I897), call quality. Through trial and error I have found that jl2 and jl3 modems offer the best quality for myself and the people I am speaking with, however I would really like to increase the volume in my earpiece. It's ok, but it's a lot lower than any kb1 I've used. I have the volume all the way up, and sometimes it's a struggle to hear the person I am speaking with. I have sgs tools and I've investigated in the volume controls of the audio section. Problem is there are so many options for tweaking and I don't want to just go in and start increasing numbers that I don't know what they're for. Any guidance on which numbers I should increase to hopefully solve this issue? Also, galaxy tuner gives me issues, mostly just not working, so I don't think this is an option. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. And yes, I searched this before posting, and didn't find what I was looking for.

There's a Serendipity sticky in this forum for exactly these kinds of ROM-specific questions. Please use them.:) <---Smiley to avoid being characterized as a "****" again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdub5:
Not calling you a ****, but if you read my post, my question isn't rom specific. It's referring to all GB roms and I9000 roms in my experience. Can anyone else help?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
In-call volume is a known Cappy problem that is fixed in many of the custom ROMs available here. Some do a better job than others, but it is a ROM-specific issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
I say try a rom that is based on kb1 the official froyo build. The kb1 kernel had the proper drivers fire the audience chip used in the captivate. The I9000 uses a different chip so all I9000 roms will not have the use of the audience chip for noise cancellation.

Roms like cognition and fusion might be worth a shot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdub5:
Thanks studacris. I actually am running cog 4 on my other cappy, I just love using my gb cappy more. Just hoping there was a way to get same/similar call volume as my cog phone. So is tweaks with sgs tools useless with the gb/I9000 roms? Are you the captivate creator? You know everything bout this phone! Lol!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Lol. I have no idea about the sgs tools tweaks, I get about 1 call a week never really looked into it myself.

I don't blame you for wanting gb it's pretty sweet, I haven't gone to froyo since I made the jump. If you want audience chip support and gingerbread goodness keep an eye on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1125596

I have had this rom for about a month. The ROM thread states that the chevron unlock is not need and I have not any problems with side loading apps, using them, and syncing with zune. All of a sudden today none of my side loaded apps are working, I can't side load apps, and they are saying Microsoft revoked. I understand we used to just unlock it again and all is well, but why did it lock in the first place if the ROM included the unlocked keys?

[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
No offense, but that's a review from Apple fanboys. Do. Not. Want.
[HTC EVO 3D] lbhocky19:
they seemed relatively ok.

i'm just unhappy to hear the battery is even worse than the evo. i just bought an evo and thought it would have better battery than my hd2 but nope :/ and i thought with the bigger battery in the 3d and dual core then it would improve.

eh, either way im getting it. just keep chargers everywhere!
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Lol... they compared battery life of it with the sensation with 4g on... Thats unhelpful.
[HTC EVO 3D] lbhocky19:
oh i just skimmed. dumb engadget :/
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Figured some info is better than no info ..
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
It sorta makes sense... kind of... (seeing as the sensation had 4g on) but the sensations 4g doesn't require a separate radio. How could the 3d possibly have worse battery life with a bigger battery?
[HTC EVO 3D] phistyle:
I guess I'm going to still hold on to my evo and wait for next year's version or if something better comes along. All these negatives and worse battery life just not going to cut it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapMaker:
I think the 4G comparison is fair... both phones had whatever it took, enabled, to obtain the same speeds... This is a beef I have with Sprint. My friends with T-Mobile get sick speeds, without any additional battery draw.

On another note, you guys cry foul and say Engadget is biased? Okay, let's assume that's true. The camera he was using certain has no opinion in the matter... I saw the side-by-side comparison of viewing angles... and they flat out suck. I guess it's because of the 3D? I was really, REALLY hoping that there would be no side-effect of having a 3D phone and not using it, but it seems like the two most important parts have been crippled...
[HTC EVO 3D] issafram:

[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
Although I don't disagree, it shouldn't have to come to that. I'm still getting the 3D and I think it will be a great phone. I just wish HTC had learned something from the Supersonic with (what is in my mind) it's 3 biggest negatives, battery life, camera quality, screen quality. All seem to be an improvement over the original, all still seem to be lagging behind the competition.
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapMaker:
I don't think you should be REQUIRED to hack your phone to make it usable. It's great that we can customize this phone, (assuming it gets unlocked,) but how can you tell them to stfu when all their points are entirely valid?

Your fanboy is showing.
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
No, the battery tests are with 4g on. Seeing as how it uses the same 4g radio... its going to drain the battery a ton still.
[HTC EVO 3D] evohog:
Well if your taking close to a hundred camera shots and videos a day the battery might not do so well. Ill take 14 hours of battery life anyday. And we all know as soon as it gets some custom goodness it will at least go up to 20 hours!
[HTC EVO 3D] spicy_mchaggiz:
Honestly the reviewer couldn't remember some of the items that came on the phone, and had several other mistakes during this video. I feel as if someone who had an idea of the phone to begin with would have done a better review. Heck he complained about "mushy" button's which the EVO 4g has, and complained about the camera which has done good pictures that Ive seen. Hell he couldn't even tell if the camera was covered by glass or plastic, something thats very easy to distinquish.

Honestly the ignorance of the reviewer for this phone showed pretty well. I wouldn't say everything he said was 100%.
[HTC EVO 3D] Zabalba:
There are a more reviews out there than Engadget. A lot of them state they get better battery life than the EVO 4G. Also as I said in another thread, they are very biased.

Take a gander at the other reviews
[HTC EVO 3D] spicy_mchaggiz:
Nothing has showed that hacking the phone was REQUIRED to use the phone. The phone is 200% usable out of the box, "hacking" will mainly get rid of Sense or bloatware and make battery drain minimal.

Your ignorance is showing.
[HTC EVO 3D] m4rk0358:

[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
I believe that would ZERO because its twice as better than it was on the EVO 4G.

14 hours with all radios on is pretty damn good. A better question is how many trolls will still be here after friday because they have no life.
[HTC EVO 3D] m4rk0358:
Calm down. I hope I am wrong...I'm just skeptical. If things start looking like this is truly a winner then I'll probably wind up getting one in the next few weeks.

And 14 hours of mostly being idle is what was stated in the review. No camera use either. That was a separate battery test.
[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
LOL, im very calm. BTW you ever turned on 4G on your EVO and just sat it down??? How long did it last? My guess would be alot less than 14 hours.
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapMaker:
Did the Engadget review really say they got 14 hours use with 4G data on the whole time? I swear I can only get about 2 hours tops with 4G on... no matter what ROM I'm on. Sometimes I can get 3 hours if I am stationary with EXCELLENT 4G signal. Other than that, battery life is crap.

I guess we'll all find out tomorrow what the battery has in store :)
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
You are right. Although I hope there are no issues with it I'm sure there will be thread after thread of *****ing about light bleed, battery life, viewing angles, whatever. You can't please all of the people all of the time.

[HTC EVO 3D] phistyle:
exactly...I have the evo 4g and I have no problem admitting that the iphone has a better camera, screen and better battery life. It's like saying buying a car with ****ty to decent gas mileage and then you have to rely on modifying the car to make it lighter or whatever to get better gas mileage.

[HTC EVO 3D] spicy_mchaggiz:
Generally if you are on XDA, you want to root the phone. If even to remove bloat ware, it will help the battery. This review is one of the few that says battery performance is weak, all others say its better.

Once again ignorance is showing. If you're not going to get the phone, why be here and make comments like you've done?
[HTC EVO 3D] shadowhawk2020:
I remember when the Evo 4g came out, they knocked it down a point or two based on the time it took to connect to 4g. Like they are complaining about the few issues with the 3d.

If a feature is an add on (especially one that doesn't have to be used) it shouldn't count against the phone and the rest of the functions.

If the phone is faster, it has more storage and a better screen than the original Evo, then it should at least get a better review than the original.
