I have experience with both and hands down the Galaxy S is just much more comfortable to me. It's camera is still good enough for taking some quick snaps, which is only what I'd use a phone for. It's always held up to running games, apps etc. smoothly. I have had issues with the usb though which are a little off putting.

X10 is still not a bad phone and I'd suggest seeing if you can try them both out in store before you buy either as a lot of it is down to user preference.

SGS

Galaxy S would be better if u want to have MIUI ROM official supported ;) Greatest android mod IMHO)
[General Topics] niffsparrow:
so i think frm wht u guys say galaxy s is btter............kk:D
[General Topics] InterPlace55:
OF course the Galaxy S is better than the current crop of Xperias, due to the mass of better tech in the Galaxy S I would think
[General Topics] vnvman:
Sony Ericsson are probably the worse smartphones to date, they are cheap looking, badly built and break easy. X10 is no exception, while instead the SGS is still a pretty wicked phone, especially for gaming purposes, you'll still be able to enjoy tegra games for a fair bit of time. It's also a really cheap phone right now, a great bang for the buck, about 300€ and you'll have it, if you know where to buy over the internets ofc ;)
[Nexus S General] XDA_Badman:
So i have a Samsung Nexus S and im having problems ith my battery/charge.

I have recently installed a new Rom [CM-7.1.0 RC1] http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-NS-signed.zip

And noticed when i woke up this morning that my phone was off [ok thats strange] so i got up tried turning it on , i did fire up [thank god] BUT hen it came to the homescreen it started to run uber slugish, and the battery bar was RED [wtf] then it just did the shutdown procedure.

So i plugged in the charger thinking it was flat and tried fireing it up again, it did the same thing, i have an app called ''Battery Monitor'' where it shows all battery info in my notification pull down, the battery is now charging on my laptop but not actually charging its just keeping my phone alive.

This is what it says,

1% On USB for 3m ETA n/a

1%, 275mA, 3625mV, 30.0C

Im just about to order a new battery, but if anyone has had similar problems please let me know as this is rather frustrating
[Nexus S General] Kindatired:
Could be cm7. I just read about a Guy who's screen kept waking up in the middle of the night on the new cm7 RC. You could try flashing another rom or even go back to stock and see of that fixes the problem.
[Nexus S General] XDA_Badman:
Thanks for the reply, soon as i seen the problem i reflashed to a stable nightly [115] and the problem persists i might try deleting battery stats in recovery but would this have any bad effects ?

[EVO 4G General] dmolavi:
So I've been a lurker on XDA for a while, and recently signed up for an account (and this is obviously my first post). It seems as though I can't "thank" people in their posts for the information they share. So I'll do a group thanks here:

Thanks to xHausx for the rooted stock OTA ROMs. I had rooted my EVO long ago, and didn't want to lose root with the recent updates. I was patient and have maintained root through the past 2 updates.

Thanks to the CM team. The guide on your wiki on how to root got me started down this path of righteousness :)

Thanks to Amon_RA for his recovery image. Clockwork popped my recovery cherry, but after much reading, I made the switch.

Thanks to the developers of Unrevoked. Rooting made easy.

There are lots of others who have had little bits and morsels of information that I've used in the past 8 months or so; too many to call out individually, but thanks to anyone and everyone that posted a "here's how I did it" or "here's what worked for me". Thank you all.
[EVO 4G General] jayharper08:
I believe you can "thank" now. It's required to atleast post once I think. And yes these guys here at XDA are amazing. :D

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zaphyr:
For some reason the Swedish carrier Telia got a head start. They are selling them from tomorrow, 29. June, although I think with all the preorders they have none left in stock.

Here is the press release (in Swedish)

Btw: Workbench ftw!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] StuMcBill:
Ah, thats interesting, am I correct in reading that the WiFi + 3G is 5300 Kronor and the WiFi only is 4400 Kronor?

If so, might be worth an import since I wouldn't need to pay customs from Sweden, or would I?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zaphyr:
I'm far from an expert on this, but as Scotland is part of EU, as Sweden is, I believe VAT is included? But there can be special rules, like i.e. Swedes can't privately import your whisky :( They just won't send it to Sweden.

in the end, it's up to the buyer to check which rules apply.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] StuMcBill:
I would think that VAT would be included in the Swedish price.

Would you have any links to any sites where I could look into buying it outright? Ie without a contract?

PS Yeah Workbench was software genius!! :D

[HTC EVO 3D] kannaguchio:
Instead of paying another $5/month to get another Rhapsody music authorization, I'd like to just run it from the mobile browser. The problem with the default browser is that the music stops playing if it's in the background or the screen is turned off. I also tried Skyfire but it doesn't stream music off the website.

Are there any fixes to the browser or any alternative browsers that can stay alive and stream music when in background/screen off state?
[HTC EVO 3D] kannaguchio:
Miren browser is the answer. It has problems displaying the entire web page for some frustrating reason, but at least it streams music in the background or with the screen off.

Hey, I am looking for a timer app that can be fully controlled with volume buttons without turning the screen on.

[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Edit; pics added..Anyone else having a problem with it? It seems that if I open the app drawer, and turn the phone sideways, no landscape.. but if I'm in an app, like the browser, then press menu to get the pull-down bar, I get landscape....Is this normal? (The only weird non-market apps I've installed were a few live wallpapers from the transformer, and I added spare parts from the market as well). Did Rosie landscape work perfectly before I installed the IOTA? Does it not work at all on the 3d yet, or am I just "miscomparing" it unfairly to a custom EVO ROM where all the landscape stuff has been tweaked so well? Help, please..I'm trippin about this.
[HTC EVO 3D] todah09:
No landscape rosie,on the 3d..sorry
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
For real? Did it work before the update? And is is correct if it doesn't even rotate on the homescreen? I still have my EVO, (we've been thru way too much together, couldn't put her down when the time came, LOL)..anyway, here's what I mean..The EVO pic..View attachment 639401

The E3D pic..View attachment 639403

Is this the same for everyone else?

There is a dock mode app that is already on our devices. This will do both directions and is pretty cool.

Is it possible to port samsung galaxy s2 (touchwiz 4.0) to htc aria??

I have looked in many places and have found some 'themes' but I would like an actual rom.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] richiehd:
There is a port of the entire touchwiz 4 launcher here on xda.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] lucashumbel:
Yeah I have seen that but:

1. Doesn't work on the aria

2. I was looking for a rom that was exactly the same as samsung galaxy s2 - like same applications, same home screen, same lock screen etc...

but thanks anyway
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] drowningchild:
if the launcher doesnt work, what makes you think a rom could be made from it?
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] lucashumbel:
The launcher wasn't specifically made for htc aria - thats why it didn't work.

but a rom has to be made specifically for ONE phone so i was wondering if someone had made one?

You've seen the difference in the aria and sgsII specs right?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coomercove:
So, I've searched and not been able to find an answer to a question. Why was the original Evo's bootloader locked in the Gingerbread OTA? It seemed like HTC was beginning the process of keeping the bootloaders unlocked, then WAM. We get an update that broke more than it seemed to fix and killed my battery life. I was not rooted, but my phone's overall performance was so poor after the OTA, I was ready to root it. Then, I find out there is no way to do so.

It is annoying that they do an update that hurts my phone's performance, and at the same time, block any chance I have of improving the performance.

So, have we got an answer as to why it was locked?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Because Sprint has the final say so on it, and they wanted it locked....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokuzumi:
HTC stated they would be locking the bootloaders on their phones. There was a small public outcry, and HTC said they would have an unlock solution for their future phones. At this point the GB update for the Evo was finalized, and was too far in the game to make a change. Maybe the Evo will be on the "list" for HTC to unlock the bootloader. But it really only has about 5 months left on its support cycle (18 months for updates), so who knows.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coomercove:
Thanks!

So, it was a Sprint thing and not HTC that locked it. That makes more sense. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benpage:
I emailed HTC referencing their decision to not lock future devices and requesting help unlocking my bootloader. Here is the response I received:

I guess that enough for a little hope. We'll see what happens...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wfrandy:
I just want to point out for those new to the Evo, that the Evo's bootloader has always been locked since Eclair on launch day. This is not new with this update, after each ota update a new root exploit has had to been found to get past the locked bootloader.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coomercove:
wfrandy, thank you for that clarification.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk63:
The 4G's bootloader is not locked like the 3D's. The 4G's bootloader still isn't unlocked but it is a lot easier to circumvent. This article explains it better than I can.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...r-recovery-and-kernel-images-all-locked-down/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unknownforce:
This is not true. HTC controls the bootloader on

their

devices. Sprint just gets the img file from them and they add it to their own updates, They don't get the source or the ability to change it in any way, aside from switching to a different version.

Besides that, look at the release date in the bootloader menu... it says March 8, It was developed and released BEFORE that announcement. And THAT is the real reason why it's still locked. The only reason the update came out in June was because Sprint took forever to lock down everything that they COULD and put in all their crappy bloatware and whatnot. In the future when HTC develops and releases the next version of the hboot, I would guess that it would be unlocked from that point forward.

But again, nothing Sprint can do about it, other than choose not to release it.
[HTC Sensation] Bearvius:
I've got rooted Desire loaded with RCMix S with Sense 3.0 which runs incredibly smooth. Unfortunately I managed to tear the volume button module from the main flex cable. A new one would come at ~70$, which makes me unsure as I've already spent money replacing the lcd and usb port.

I'm therefore considering Sensation, but wondering whether it'll be very different from my Desire which already runs Sense 3.0 (partly). Is it worth the upgrade?
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
short answer ? yes.

made the same change about a week ago :)
[HTC Sensation] Bearvius:
And what's the long answer? ;-)

I'm also looking at Samsung GS2, but Sense seals the deal for me.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I did the same move 2 weeks ago and won't go back. Sense 3.0 just runs SO much better than on the Desire, no lag whatsoever
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
same thing made my choice. touchwiz is like a baby toy against sense ... display is better (at angles). i surprised how good an slcd can in front view o0 (coming from amoleg desire) so s2, slimmer, lighter, faster ... but overall this wasn't a choice for me :P
[HTC Sensation] BonesRed:
All devices are not created equal as we know and the fact that your device has root isn't very significant in and of itself. Sensation will be getting root at some point and until then it's a beautifully running device that we can't customize in all of the ways that we would like. It definitely beats the hell out of my rooted MT3GS :D
