[Captivate General] Superalpaca:
Unless they had a lot of money, I don't see why any reasonable person would upgrade to an Infuse. Not saying your chart is worthless, but it's probably better-suited in other places, where people don't usually understand what the differences mean in the "techno-talk**".

**Yes, this is the vernacular regular folks actually use
[Captivate General] gtg465x:
I beg to differ. I'm sure someone will find it useful.

I can certainly see people upgrading to the Infuse if they have an upgrade available and really want a 4.5 inch screen, can't live with the Yamaha audio chip in the Attain, or just don't feel like waiting for the Attain. Hell, there are tons of previous Captivate owners already in the Infuse section.

OR, maybe someone is pondering the Infuse, but after seeing this chart they will decide to wait for the Attain, or decide not to. Whatever.

If you came here to bash my post, there's no need really. I'm not closing it for you and I don't really give a crap if you don't find it useful. Others might.
[Captivate General] xdahgary:
your work is appreciated. thank you.

It is a nice simple reference to see the differences between the phones. I don't get to upgrade for another year almost, but It's nice to have things organized and know what's to be expected in the future. Thanks for this.
[Captivate General] Madtowndave:
+1 Thanks and don't mind the haters.

[Captivate General] redeuxx:
Thanks!

I wish there was a chart for phones a little over a year away for people who go the Captivate when it first came out and don't want to pay extra.
[Captivate General] 1tontomato:
I might not be useful for me but my wife is definitely due for an upgrade. She is still sitting on an iPhone 3g and eyeballing my captivate all the time. The only thing missing would be what the next Gen iPhone is going to be.

[Captivate General] alexige:
Where do you get your attain data? I haven't seen any info in the blogosphere. Are you just basing it on the sgs2?
[Captivate General] gtg465x:
Yeah, Attain looks like it will be exactly like the SGS2 other than the button layout and possible addition of NFC.
[Captivate General] creepyncrawly:
The numbers are certainly interesting, but even without them, it was pretty clear that the attain is by far the better choice. The only issue is how long do we have to wait.

I will use my wife's upgrade to get the attain for myself, and pass my captivate to her, as long as I can get her to wait that long. She's really wants to upgrade now. I've heard suggestions/rumors of July 24 for some of the sgsII US release dates. Don't think that was specific to the attain, though. I wonder if anyone has heard anything more difinitive or has better info?
[Captivate General] gtg465x:
Things I found interesting were that the Attain's GPU will be no better than the Captivate's and the audio quality will actually be worse, but that's really just a testament to how mind blowingly good those parts were when the Captivate originally came out.
[Captivate General] gtg465x:
I think those late July estimates are purely based on US Galaxy S releases last year. No one knows for sure. Could be late July, or it could be September for all we know :(.
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
I didn't realize how badly the Infuse is bested by the SGS II.
[Captivate General] kletiz:
I would be fine if at&t waited for the launch of their LTE network so they could put an LTE radio in the attain.
[Captivate General] gtg465x:
I think I would rather have a little slower speed, much wider coverage, and much better battery life with HSPA+. Plus if AT&T waits that long the Attain won't be nearly as ground breaking. The SGS2 will be old news by then.
[Captivate General] tking0036:
I think wait for the attain

I really like the infuse but I like the fact that the attain has gingerbread and the tw4 interface
[Captivate General] bames:
no harm in the post not sure why people get so uptight....that said rather than trying to decide between the SGSII and the infuse most of the people here are more likely trying to decided whether to pick up the SGSII or hold out for the Prime or the Holiday.
[Captivate General] Dfinlay:
Perfect

Thanks for the quick overview, always nice to see the relentless march of technology laid out an easy to digest format.

I love comparison charts! Especially when they are beneficially color coded ones that fit on one page.

I too appreciate your efforts.

Now why in the heck isn't my Mosaic OTA updating? Ahhh!
[G1 General] FireRaider:
I am having all sort of trouble with my newly flashed G1, the main issue being the keyboard only has 4 keys that work after a HBOOT flash back to stock..

It boots up to the google log in screen ok but in the bottom left corner it says 'safe mode'. I can find nothing in the G1 forums about it but one of the other forums (myTouch) mention it is where it loads a minimum amount of apps or something if booted while holding the menu button down.

Anyways, is there anyone who knows how to get out of safe mode? And why it might be in there in the first place?
[G1 General] FireRaider:
figured it out. ( I searched xda using google )

hold the red and green buttons down together.

Some people say the menu button sticking causes this 'safe mode' to occur.

unfortunately my keyboard still only has 4 keys that work even without the safe mode issue.

edit: And upon rebooting its back in 'safe mode'. I would assume that means my menu button is stuck down? I wonder if that is why my keyboard is having issues too. I will have to tear it apart now.
[G1 General] ldrifta:
hmmm yes good idea.. clean it all out than tell me what happens i will help you out from there :D
[G1 General] (•.•):
I think this safe mode isnt save at all...
[G1 General] Bwanar:
One of the rep's told me to turn off the phone. Take out the battery for 20 sec. then reinstall and turn on. Should be out of safe mode.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Hey, guys, I feel very inadequate in here so I was wondering if anyone would be willing to Skype with me on how to root, flash, etc. on my phone. I ask for Skype because I truly know next to nothing in regards to this process. I vaguely understand what rooting does but I have never done any of it.

I have been patient with my g2x and am still on my original one(hoping that LG or TMO would do what was right by it's customers:rolleyes:) but after the recent news that they "might" start doing internal testing after having pulled our legs with this whole "by summer" nonsense, I have decided to try to correct their mistakes for now.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

here is a thread that will point you in all the right directions to getting the g2x rooted with clockwork so you can start flashing...

Man, that's great guide. I think I have skimmed over it before. It seems so daunting, haha. Am I making a bigger deal of it than I should be?:confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
You are. Why are you letting a phone scare you?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nuBex86:
Really its a piece of cake this is my second device I've rooted.. I did my old mt3g slide (it was a little bit harder especially being a n00b) but yea just follow guides to the T as much as possible. Even at worse case scenario you should able to revert to exchange and stuff if you have a warranty and whatnot. Have faith and go balls out you wont regret it!! I'm hooked on rooting/flashing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
dude listen just read it slowly and take your time u should be researching first before anything, i researched these forums for 7 months before i joined, but just take your time and if u need help ask, its really easy use tga gunmans guide for nvflash (putting recovery on your phone cwm), after u rooted it then always make a backup
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Ha, I figured. I'm not scared of the phone, I'm scared of not being able to use a brick. ;):p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Are you volunteering help? :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Docavelli:
Yep, you've totally scared yourself. Don't worry, I did it with my G1. Read, read, read. Then use the one click great app to root your phone then use TGA's thread to put CWM recovery on it.

If you're gonna do this stuff you gotta trust that you know what you're doing (unless there's something you really don't understand). Else you'll never do it.

And I don't think I've seen a thread about a really bricked phone. So relax and use the source young Skywalker.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] beamer182:
Easy, download AmonRA recovery and follow youtube video directions. pretty much, download amonra, put on sd card, insert sd card, Power down, then press powerbutton+volume down, brings you to hboot menu....then you look for hboot usb, press volume down, then youre rooted.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SirLange:
First 2 times in rootet, i did it with this htc legend, took a few hours and yet didn't work, but afterwards in went to theunlocker guide and piece of cake it was, i even have to tell im running @ 806 mhz stable, even if found the biggest stable clock on legend to 768 mhz :D good luck
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Ok, might take the plunge here in a few. Roughly how long does the whole process take?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea ill help and listen dont download amonra, thats for different non tegra2 phones, recovery do the nvflash way its the only way.....dont do rom manager either its whats called a fake flash and u can only get access to recovery thru the app, now if u go into a bootloop your screwed, and wont be able to turn your phone on or off u can pull battery but it does nothing cuz when u turn ur phone back on ur still bootlooping so this way if u nvflashed recovery (cwm) on your phone and u go into a bootloop u can get into recovery by holding power down and volume down and your in
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Thanks a ton, bro! I'm gonna try to root and then post in here every so often to show my progress/ask questions. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:
Do I need to take out my SD card before rooting?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
no u do not just go into ur settings go to applications then development and make sure usb debugging is checked then start the root process u need to install adb theres guides all over for that and install the lg drivers......oh and remember to reboot after u have it rooted for root to stick
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gogoplata1980:

there is also one in application / development / usb debugging will give you mass storage mode.

Yes, this will attach the device.memory & your storage card to the computer. The storage card should be your last disk drive under removable storage in Windows 7/Vista.
[Galaxy S II General] arix:
In this mode I can see the disks but without access them (win xp), I m using this mode to play with "adb"....

so to make it active as disk drive I need open notification bar etc etc.. most of the time I just need connect to PC as disk drive, so whatever u do it's very annoing :)

Even in my 5 years old HTC P3300 WM I had this option :)

Is there any way to make it default as disk drive or application that will ask me what to connect with one press key?

I meant without open notification bla bla, I counted 4 presses till u

get it as usb drive:

1. shift screen right

2. open notification

3. press usb connected

4. again, connect USB storage

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwscuba:
I have an EVO. Its basically is just the stock over the air rooted (android 2.3.3). The main thing that I have had issue with is only being able to have 1 exchange account. I have been told that apparently that is just an HTC thing and the stock android allows for multiple.

I have read through and search the forums for how to get the stock email app installed. It seems like everything is either to old or something and download links are not working, etc. I saw one post that said just get the app from another rom and install it.

So I downloaded the stock deodexed rom from the Nexus S (which I no is stock). And pulled the email.apk from it. Transferred it to my evo and tried to install and got the error "application not installed".

So I found things saying to try and remove the app that was already on the phone. So I used root uninstaller and uninstalled the mail app from the phone (the HTC one not gmail.apk)

But I get the same error. I tried, replacing the email.apk on the rom that I used with the email.apk from the stock rom and load the rom, but the rom wouldn't load.

Does anyone have any ideas or help they might be able to give me, or possibly any other way to get multiple exchange accounts working on the evo?

Advanced email is using your existing stock apps and a good solution

Better is to use k9 mail with more options and a multi user solution.

Already on AT&T (Family plan, no data contract)...

- Can i purchase the LG Thrive as a go-phone, insert my old sim, turn off data (if i need to, root it), then use it as a phone?

- Will AT&T figure out that i have a 'SmartPhone' and charge me for a data plan?

- Would like to use this w/o a data plan, since i'm almost always around wi-fi
[Optimus One, P500, V General] eortizr:
Yes you can.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] MechanicaIMan:
Everything that I have ever heard indicates that it is not possible. Don't AT&T and other carries use the IMEI to determine what phone you are using and charge all postpaid smartphone users for a data plan? That is what I've always heard.

AFAIK, you will need to switch to prepaid if you want to use a smartphone without a data plan.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] PhoenixFx:
I just did a quick transfer speed test by copying a 286MB file

Copying to the internal storage took 25 seconds (transfer rate : 11.4MBps)

Copying to a class 2 , 8GB microSD card took 45 seconds (transfer rate : 6.35MBps)

At those speeds a 1Gig should not take much longer than 1min 30sec to the internal memory and 2min 41sec to a Class 2 micro SD card (which is like the slowest speed you can expect from a micro SD card these days), unless you are moving thousands of tiny files, in which case it will take longer, but even then I doubt it should take 1hr.

P.S: 16GB TF running stock 3.1, connected to a Windows 7 32bit laptop

I only get 750KBps when copying files over wi-fi using ES File explorer; and I don't think you can expect anything above 1.0~2MBps when transferring from one wireless device to another wireless device on a wireless G network. That is still more than 10x slower than USB. What method are you using ??

Are you copying only one single big file or many smaller files..the speed normally drops significantly when copying huge amount of smaller files..

Go back to eclair with ea28 radio. There is no froyo rom/radio free of this issue currently available. I have tested all radios available right now and had missed calls on all of them. ED04 made it even worse actually.

I've tried numerous radios, roms, and kernels and am currently on stock ED04 with the same issues. I think ED04 is actually worse on my phone as well. I've read about quite a few people having the same problem and the overall consensus is that it's a hardware issue.

For ****s and giggles, Odin the EC09 radio. I personally use it and find it to be pretty nice, much faster data speeds, and it MAY fix your issue.

It's not a FroYo deal, it's a network issue. My wife's Fascinate is still on DL09 and she has missed calls too. A lot of people believe it is an issue with LTE affecting 3G, since the problems started popping up around the same time LTE was flipped on
