[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
You can, like zelendel says below, start with the screen replacement tutorial.

I had my old BB bold torn completely apart so I could clean the crap out of the trackball assembly. Several times.

Granted, the bold and the inspire are different phones, but what gets put together can be taken apart...the main parts of the phone at least.

Though I haven't messed with taking apart an inspire, if it's anything like other phones, the bezel/body would probably be the trickiest, as the two halves snap together in a rather "semi-permanent" way. Inspire might be different seeing that it's metal, and not plastic.

Not to mention, the part you're trying to get to, along with the power button, is most likely sort of "floating" inside, meaning it might pop out once the body is separated.

Also, the ribbon cables that connect components like the screen to the main PCB are rather delicate, so be gentle when separating parts.

Again, I don't know for sure, just based on my experience with some other similar electronic devices I've taken apart.

The point is, go get yourself a set of those micro-screwdrivers, and go at it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] skatin707:
I was watching a video on changing out the screen, looked really complicated (lots of small connectors) but possible. I replaced the screens on all of my iphones so I may be able to accomplish this.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
It's complicated device...enough to warrant your undivided attention and, if there are a lot of those ribbon cables that look similar or have the same number of contacts, it might be advisable to have a fine point sharpie permanent marker around so you can mark what ribbon goes to what connector.

But if you've replaced a screen on an iPhone, you should have a head start, not to mention, you may not have to dig as deep to get to the part you're after as you would to get to the screen.

All this verbage coming from me is based on having NOT watched the video myself. I've just opened up and put back together more than a couple electronic gadgets before. ;)

FWIW
[HTC Inspire 4G] skatin707:
I'll give it a go. Maybe ill take pictures and post a guide for future reference.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Stuff like that is always appreciated. Good luck.

And remember, if it ain't coming off easy, there's probably a screw still in that you overlooked... ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] skatin707:
I'll do that then. I'm sure it will take me a while lol. The video wasn't descriptive of parts.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Oh, and for gods sake, take the battery out first. Lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] ZeroRilix:
And it wouldn't hurt to use one of those anti-static wrist straps that are used when tinkering with a pc. Never know how sensitive these phones are to static. My rule of thumb is; better to ne safe than sorry. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] skatin707:
Roger that, remove battery and static strap. Can do.

Posted with my model confused HTC Inspire via XDA premium.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Obviously good advice, and I used to be paranoid about it, now not so much. I've never fried anything due to built-up static electricity. I'm not saying it can't happen, just that the danger is probably a little overblown.

If you handle elecronic components carefully, you shouldn't run into problems.

For example, there's no reason to directly touch any IC's on PCB's or other parts that have them, just grab the part so that skin only contacts two of four edges.

And don't skate around in your socks on your thick shaggy carpet prior to doing this stuff. :p

And if you must skate around in your socks prior, touch the metal case of something plugged in... Computer power supply, etc.

All pretty basic stuff for anyone whose ever built their own pc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] skatin707:
I'll keep that in mind :P

[Android Software Development] martyxng:
Good day. I am just getting started in Android development and am ready to work on my first app that I want to put in the Market. I want to make a free sports prediction app just for fun. When there is a big game on a given day, I would like to put my prediction for which team will win. I want the push notification to go out to users. They can then read my prediction and choose to "Agree" with me, or "Disagree" with me. I need to save the counts of how many people agreed and how many disagreed. Once the game is over, I would like to send a push notification to all users saying the results of the game, and how many people agreed and disagreed.

What do you folks recommend that I start with for the web side? I'm assuming I need some web space that the app can access to upload each user's vote. Also, how do I push out my prediction each day? Is there a web front end somewhere that might be free/cheap for something like this? Thank you!

Hope its not a joke 2430mah :-)

but I heard that the Sensation and the EVO 3D use the same size batteries so a EVO 3D battery should work in a Sensation and Sensation battery should in an EVO 3D

Now that the bootloader is unlocked, can the Xooms overclock be ported to the Atrix?

I just read about this app in the portal, Dual Rom X2 for the droid incredible and went to the thread and was blown away! Up to 5 ROMS on one device without having to flash every time! Could someone take a look into this could it work on our G2's?

Even the thought of having two or three ROM's to easily switch back and forth from would be awesome!

I for one would be a willing tester if any of you kick ass dev's could compile something like this for us g2 owners.

[HD2 General] evilwise:
Well my Hermes is getting a little old and I'm shopping for a new phone. The HD2 seems extremely awesome. I love that I could always fall back to WM6.5 if WP7 and Android don't suit me. It seems this phone is also quite common so with a little patience I should be able to find one at a price I want to pay. The only thing that I'm not crazy about it the lack of a hard keyboard. I see that there is a Toshiba K01/IS02 with a hard keyboard that also has a capacitive screen even though it shipped with WM6.5 but it seems to be a rare and undeveloped phone.

Can anyone tell me if there are any other WM6.5/WP7 phones besides the HD2?
[HD2 General] psyCORe:
I think no atm,
[HD2 General] Mister B:
I too was not keen on no hardware keyboard but ended up getting a T-Mob HD2 because the price was right.

All I can say is typing on screen is far faster than any HTC hardware keyboard I have tried & you can use a mini hardware keyboard via BlueTooth if required.

All in all the lack of hardware keyboard was a step forward for my typing experience ...
[HD2 General] anubius:
For the criteria you are asking HD2 is the best. This is the best dual OS phone out there. And I agree with previous post that screen keyboard is way better. My prevois phone was TyTyn II but I think I like sceen keyboard more than hard keyboard. It just takes a little time to get use to typing on the screen. I am really happy with HD2 and I can not think of the better phone for now that does not cost more than 300 euro and have such features. But the choice is yours. Good luck.
[HD2 General] evilwise:
Wait a sec. No video out? What the dip?
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Indeed that was a big mistake from HTC ... The flagship model at the time with no video out ! between that & the selected battery capacity some HTC designers & market researchers should of been shot ...
[HD2 General] htccraze:
Well I'm not sure about w7 but the HTC touch pro 2 can run Android & w6.5..(a bit laggy though & very outdated) & also has tv out I believe. It's been sometime since I've owed it so I can't remember. I text (up 2) 4000 texts each month & Im coming from the mytouch slide which has a keyboard....I have 2 say I really dont miss it. I will admit it took me a good few days b4 I could text as fast as any of my old phones that had a keyboard.

Personally I would suggest to buy a phone that has good development that way you won't be left in the dark. Going from the tp2 to the mytouch was horrible bc I had a phone that was well developed & then went 2 a phone that was slim pickins 2 mod it.
[HD2 General] lokalboy808:
The Desire HD is sort of like an upgraded HD2. I hear that a lot of devs are also working on it.
[HD2 General] Shawn_230:
I was just like the OP, really excited that I could fall back on to WM6.5 if I didn't like Android or WP7. Then I moved to Android and never looked back.

I do admit the HD2 is a beastly device, I can't think of any other device that is nearly as hackable... the HD2 runs WM6.5, WP7 and Android all basically as if those were all natively supported.

Still though, it will soon be 2 whole years since the HD2 was announced. I personally had one for 18 months before buying a Galaxy SII. The HD2 looks pretty modern on paper... 4.3" screen, Snapdragon processor... but next to a truly modern phone like the GSII the HD2 looks clearly dated.

I put WP7 on the HD2 but it's not really my cup of tea. I also tried going back to WM6.5 but after a year with Android I found it laughably slow and clunky. So I may end up selling the HD2, though it would be by far the hardest device I've ever parted with.

I don't really know what to tell the OP. The HD2 is a hell of a phone and can run the newest versions of WP7, but when you set it next to a newer, official WP7 device you will see the differences. If you don't already own an HD2 I'd advise getting a WP7 phone, maybe one with a better screen than the HD2 has got... unless you really have a need to still be running WinMo 6.5.

Love the hd2. Got it for it's support of tzone grandfathered plans on 3g. Wm6.5 is a joke. I could not believe how amazing the phone was after removing that dead weight of an os.
[HD2 General] AntonJart:
I am too trying to upgrade my HD2. I am thinking of Nexus one. It seems similar in many ways to HD2, but will have a better battery life. My plan is to: sell HD2 + $50 = Brand new Nexus one.

I was also thinking of Moto Defy...
[HD2 General] Shawn_230:
I'd recommend looking at a Nexus S... a bit plastic, but the Nexus One is long in the tooth now, in terms of hardware.
[HD2 General] evilwise:
Wow thanks for all the input today, Guys! I discovered a couple more things today that are going to affect my phone purchase. The first thing is that the T-Mobile branded HD2 does not support the 850 band and I am an AT&T user so not only would I not get 3G on it, but AT&T generally sends me angry emails when I use like a gig of data while "roaming" on T-Mobile's towers.

I doubt I'm going to be able to get an HD2 that does HSDPA850 at a bargain price so I checked out my upgrade options through AT&T. I am considering the following phones which I can get practically free, and here's my thoughts on each from most to least likely to be my next phone.

Samsung Focus - I've played with this phone at the store and it has the nicest looking screen by far of the three AT&T branded WP7 phones. Looks nice (except no video out). Everyone posting ITT has given me some faith in on-capacitive-screen keyboards and I must have had to work on my Hermes a million times because of the slide mechanism damaging, or more often just twisting the ribbon cable. I guess the only doubt that I have in my heart about this phone is that it's a WP7 only phone and I don't believe in WP7 largely because it's not backwards compatible with any of my WM6.5 apps. It boggles my mind that someone asked why I would want WM compatibility after I have spent nine years using it.

HTC Inspire - Seems like a pretty solid Android phone, and one of only two Android phones in the price range I want to pay (although still $50 more than the Focus). Video out only through DLNA

iPhone 3g 8gb - I think we all know everything we need to know about this animal. It's solid, spare parts are plentiful, and it's extensively developed. I just hate Apple. I don't want to have to install iTunes on my computer and so forth. Still may be my choice purely for resale value.

LG Quantum - Ditto most of the Samsung Focus opinion. Noticeably poorer screen (smaller and backlit LCD vs OLED), but does have a hardware keyboard and is the form factor I am accustomed to from the last six years with Wizard and Hermes. I guess Focus or HD2 would just feel like Wallaby in my pocket though.

Samsung Solstice II - Basically what the Quantum is to the Focus, the Solstice is to the Inspire in the Android arena. Smaller, poorer screen in exchange for a slide out keyboard. DLNA compatible though.

Palm Pre Plus and Palm Pixi - Seem like decent phones but a little too cute for me. Plus I have even greater misgivings about Palm's WebOS than I do about WP7.

Sony Ericcson Vivaz - I carried an Ngage for a while switching back and forth with Wallaby. There seemed to be a lot of development for Symbian back then and it was stable. Probably not the thing to discuss on this forum though..

Anyway, hopefully I'm not derailing my own thread too much or getting it off the topic of the section I posted it in but I appreciate all the replies and would love to hear what everyone thinks. Deciding which phone to get can be a real brain drain! And what's up with hardly anything having video out? My friend's Evo has a freakin' HDMI port right on it!

I'm looking to make custom roms for the LG Phoenix P505 from scratch or use someones to learn how to? Tutorials or books or something would help, I'm not familiar with the code but I wanna learn so any help would be great, I'll be going into Computer Engineering Technology at a local college so I'm looking for a little head start in some areas.

I understand that a recovery menu or something around those guide lines is needed to use those custom roms? Is there one out for the P505 or is there a compatible one made from a previous rom?
