The screen is made of plastic not ape glass, this could be an advantage since it is lighter and won't brake so easily but it could also be a disanvantage since it can be scratched easily.

Hmmm....according to the preview on slashgear, the UI is not so smooth and the apps crash very often...this could be a big down side, if those bugs can also be found after release.. I hope they can fix them.

About the different RAM versions, I will just have to take a better look before buying.... man the price is really tempting
[General Questions and Answers] u.b.o.o.t:
Hm... I was almost sold on a Viewpad 10s for its great community support and tempting price of 249EUR inkl. docking station and then discovered the Archos 101 G9 having the following advantages over the Advent Vega/Viewpad/Mobii units:

- way better CPU (+0.5GHz, NEON)

- more RAM (+512MB)

- more vertical resolution (800 instead of 600px, I don't like widescreen at all but 800 is a big improvement for me over 600px)

- easy and affordable 3G upgrade which also serves as a 3G USB modem for laptops

- probably better build quality (according to comparative reviews of the 101 and the Viewpad 10s)

- better viewing angles (according to hands on previews on youtube)

- Honeycomb included, no need to void warranty with custom ROMs

- built-in stand, no docking station needed to carry around when on the way

The only I concern I have atm: how stable will the stock OS be and will there be improved custom ROMs...

Opinions?
[General Questions and Answers] aaa:
Yes. I also want to know how is the OS stability and smoothness of Archos 80 G9..and also Archos tablets/products durability in general, because I have never had any Archos products until now.

I am hoping someone in this forum can say several words regarding the durability first, since the G9 is not yet available in the market and no one has really tested it.

so...I could really use your comment on the durability term, based on your previous Archos experiences...please

I've had the Archos 80 G9 for a week now and am loving it. Value for money it is excellent, the Honeycomb UI is sleek and responsive and I haven't really had any problems with it. Battery life is excellent.

I particularly like the size, it is great for two thumb typing when in portrait mode.

Here are some images of the Archos 80 G9 next to an iPad 2 to give you an idea of the size: http://www.todoleo.com/2011/10/archos-80-g9-with-apple-ipad-2.html

[Android Apps and Games] Shambolicuk:
Hi all, just after some info please and a "Endomondo" search in this forum brings back nothinh as yet.

I use and like the Endomondo sports tracking app on my HTC Desire/Bravo, and on the original stock rom and all cooked Froyo roms it works fine, but on every Gingerbread rom i have tried so far for some reason this app keeps dropping the gps signal meaning that your not accurately being tracked. Im sure its not a radio issue as my Ndrive sat nav works perfectly.

So basically just after some community feedback, is anybody using a gingerbread rom, on ANY device and is running Endomondo with no issues?

Cheers.

If you are using the pro version have a look to see if power saving mode is active.

Failing this try another free version to see if they work (cardio trainer), as i know endomondo has always had issues on my SGS but none of the others have done.

i just want to know that why android operating system does not work directly in mobile devices

why there is need of development in it to use in all diffrent phones?

why it cant work directly like windows in pc does

and other question all others like bada os, symbien and apple os they all need they also need development or we can use them directly

if sumone didnt understand my question i will explain more :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] justkiddinghere:

windows we can install directly in any pc of any company or assembled

but android need development and designed for a seprate product of a specific brand

why?

For example

[n] Windows has the complete set of drivers

[n+1] The manufacturer delivers the driver
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GinoAMelone:
Fundamentally, you're misunderstanding the situation. Windows does not run on any computer you can throw together. It runs on any computer that you can throw together that matches the evolving, de facto standard that started as the IBM PC.

It won't run on a SPARC Station or a 68k Mac or an IBM 360 or a Wii or a PS3 or, well, a HTC Vision.

Similarly, Android will run on any PC, er phone, er tablet, er, well computer that is basically the same as an existing Android device. The vast majority of the custom development that is, strictly-speaking, necessary for a new device amounts to device drivers. Now, most manufacturers do a lot on top of that to distinguish their product. That's where Sense and MotoBlur and such-like come into play.

A further complication is that storage space and memory are at a heavy premium on these devices. So, it is infeasible to include the incredible variety of drivers and other hardware support that makes a typical Windows or Linux install need several GBs.

Back in the day, when dinosaurs roamed the earth and there were only a handful of PC makers in the world, similar customization was needed. My first PC came with a manufacturer-custom version of DOS 2.1 and Windows 1.1. Is wasn't until at least DOS 3.x (maybe 4.x, that was a long time ago) that a vanilla MS copy had a chance of working. Even then, most peripherals *needed* a custom driver to be used at all. My first mouse is an example. Only way to use it was the Genius Mouse drivers that came with it.

Inspire Radio Thread [OP Updated June 10 2011]
[HTC Inspire 4G] lee_:
I'm using the stock At&t radio with no issues... what does the recommended radio do better?
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
The answer to your question is: I like turtles. (credit goes to id10terrordfw for that one) :D

But seriously, the reason I said "I like turtles" is because sometimes that question has no clear answer. If you're not having any issues using the stock radio, then there is no reason to change it. Some developers recommend a particular radio because it has worked for great for them and has been trouble-free in hundreds of hours of their testing. But that doesn't necessarily mean other radios won't work just fine. One thing to keep in mind is many Inspire ROMs are ports from Desire HD ROMs, so a lot of these ROMs will recommend a radio that came out on the DHD, because the developer actually owns that phone and that's the radio he uses. Usually, for any ROM that recommends the latest Desire HD radio version, the latest Inspire radio version will work just fine also. So any ROM that recommends version 09.04.11, version 06.06.30 on the Inspire should work just as good in most, if not all, situations.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
The problem there, Henry, is that timeless concept of... The grass is always greener... ;)

That other radio *might* give me 6 out of 5 bars signal strength where I had -1 before, not to mention 10 gazillion kb/s down, and 5 gazillion kb/s up. :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Ha ha, that is true. I'm the same way. Myself, I've tried every damn radio/RIL out there multiple times. From a previous "gotta flash a radio per day" addict like me, my story to lee_ was to try to keep someone from going down that same path. :D If someone starts going down that slippery slope, I tried to warn them. :p

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
That's what I was waiting to see if someone said that. 32GB will be plenty for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DECIM8:
The 8G would be fine other than I use the phone to transfer ~5GB of CAD files to and from work pretty often. Add in a GB of music and I have very little space left. I was going to pick up a 16GB card with a decent class but I looked at what I COULD put on it and I would run into the same wall. 32GB should allow for work files, music, PS ROMs, A couple movies (got transformers 1&2 with my HD2) and have room to even grow from there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Just curious with your class 2 16GB card, where do you notice it being slow? Or maybe a better way to ask it is, with the faster card, when do you notice the speed gains?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DECIM8:
the 16GB class 2 card I have is out of my HD2 and is a very low grade card to begin with. Theoretically it should have transfer rates of around 2 MB/s or better. A class 6 card should have around 6 MB/s or better. When I tested between the cards I copied a folder of 200mb worth of mp3s onto the card and looked at what windows was reporting for the transfer rate. I got 1-3 MB/s with the 16GB class 2 and 4-8 MB/s with the 8GB class 6 when doing this. Considering I sync 5GB of files, most of which change on a regular basis, that makes a huge difference. I didn't test read speeds at the time.

From a more touchy feely place, indexing after a reboot took longer. Syncing my work files took a lot longer. It also took larger games (GOF2) longer to start with the 16GB card (when on the SD) and GOF2 was more prone to FC at startup.

The scenario I have with my work is really what is holding me back from using the 16GB class 2 right now.

If you would like me to run some tests with both cards I can do that tonight. I was planning on playing with different SD-Booster settings tonight anyway. Let me know what you would want to see.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Great info. Thanks! I asked because I have a 16GB class 2 in mine right now. Haven't really noticed any reason to upgrade to a faster card yet but just wondering how noticeable the difference would be. I always like getting real world experience from someone using the product. It usually means more than the theoretical numbers.

Thanks again. Very helpful.

[HTC EVO 3D] Deetz307:
Just noticed an odd very light whirring noise from my headphones when they are plugged into the Evo 3d and the screen is updating.

For example when i turn the screen on and the weather animation on my lock-screen runs, it makes the whirring noise, but when I am on a static home screen it is quiet, but then if i swipe to move to the next screen i hear the light noise again. Same if click on the launcher button to open the app drawer, or click on the phone button on the screen and it opens the dialer.

Wondering if this is a common issue/bug, or if I have a defective unit i need to exchange.

The headphones work perfectly fine in my old phone so it isn't the headphones.
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
I had headphones on for about 40 minutes yesterday morning and didn't notice anything like that at all. Have you tried a different set of headphones?....just to pinpoint in fact that it's a problem with your phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
I see what you are talking about. The noise is really faint, but I'd say not to worry about it since it may be software related. When browsing apps and what not the sound is gone.
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
Damn......just put my headphones on again and still nothing like that. Either my phone's not afflicted or my ears are worse then I thought after to many years working in a factory.
[HTC EVO 3D] ffolkes:
I can hear it too, when I scroll I can clearly hear it. This isn't anything new, I've noticed this sort of thing from other devices. Certain laptops will make a tiny squeal when rapidly scrolling something on the screen with the volume jacked up. We're probably hearing added EMI from the increase in CPU activity. Not much you can do about it. :/

The original Evo used to always make this annoying warbling noise during silence. At times it honestly sounded like faint music almost, it was that pronounced.
[HTC EVO 3D] BlaydeX15:
Yep, that's a fact of life, when it comes to electronic devices. When it puts out enough power, it'll interfere with the headphones (Which, if you think about it, headphones are just a giant magnifier for electronic pulses. Makes sense)

If you don't believe me, hook up an aux cable to your car stereo, and pinch the end. It'll make a buzzing noise. You're electrically charged enough to play music! :p

Same thing for the internals of your phone. Doesn't take much. Heck, you could probably set your phone

next

to an MP3 player that you have your headphones plugged into, and still get some interference.
[HTC EVO 3D] Deetz307:
Thanks for confirming that you can hear it too.

I know what you all are saying about electronics having some EMI, but i went back and compared it to my original Evo, and a friend's iPhone 3GS, and neither of the two gave any background noise because the screen was changing/scrolling etc.

Gotta decide if I want to return it. I love the phone's speed, features etc., and this is definitely a minor thing I am bringing up, but it just bugs me a little.
[HTC EVO 3D] audyo:
I also have this noise problem, noticed it right away. I also have a slight cracking sound from the speaker when a loud sound plays. It's odd because normally other devices are able to be placed at max volume without hearing distortion. I'm not ready to return it yet, my roomate got one this morning, and I want to see if his does the same.

Thankfully, it seems to disappear when I am not interacting with the phone. Therefore, it's not a huge issue for me.

Hey guys. Unfortunately, I am stuck on getting my Vibrant up and running. I've never had this issue until now. I am familiar with ODIN and all that is needed to restore back to stock. Everything has always gone smooth until this point. I was ODIN'ING back to stock, as usual, from a 2.2 ROM. I started the ODIN operation but then after 1 second or so, it showed that it failed. Then I unplugged it, like usual whenever it fails, and plugged it back in. And for some reason it couldn't read it. I've tried on two different computers already and it can't be read at all. Here's a picture that I found on a thread....BUT, instead of the phone and computer Icons being in the MIDDLE like normal, its on the TOP LEFT for some reason. I have no idea what is there to do now.
