[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
(As they do on Howard and a few others)....to keep if off 'general'.

This is a natural instinct (to compare a product)...but there are a ton of E3D owners here who are incapable of hearing of issues people are having, or comparing it to other phones without dumbing the thread down to schoolgirl name calling)...when those should be fair topic game on this forum. I mean this forum lacks civility more than any I've ever seen...by far! Yes there's trolling yes there are a ton of repeat threads, blah blah... It can still be handled without blatant rudeness.

Anyway, I know nothing will likely come of it...but I want to throw that idea out to mods: all comparative discussions with other phones/'dogfight' topics have its own section.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Im so sick of this vs that threads. It always turns into splitting hairs, trolling and personal attacks. Especially when it involves Apple. Its all about personal preference on what you want for a phone.

But yea most of the time I wont even open and read those horrible threads.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
People can't even figure out what goes in the development section, you seriously think something like this would ever work.

I am more sick of reading these new threads that say absolutely nothing. If you want to make suggestions to mods, then PM them. Do you really need to start a new thread here?
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
@OP

You don't even have this phone anymore. You said you traded it in. So why are you still lurking around here like some crazy stalker? Most of your posts about the phone have been somewhat negative. So.....

[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
If I need to have my Infuse replaced under warranty can I load my Nandroid backup from original Infuse onto the replacement?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Indeed.

At least to my knowledge there should be no conflicts because the backup shouldn't contain any device specific information(unless you're changing devices completely i.e. infuse to atrix or something)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
I am new to the infuse so I don't have a definite answer for ya...I know on our other devices it has always been discouraged
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
Nope, Infuse->Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sixn3is7:
MisterEdF, did you ever have to do this? ZeroIsntTheHero says "no conflicts" and 00mred00 says "discouraged". What is the correct answer?

I just shipped my Infuse to Samsung to have the GPS repaired and I would like to know if a nandroid restore is even worth the try if they ship back a different IMIE.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
At the time I had just bought the phone...as there is nothing radio specific from device to device I would say go ahead.

The only issue I could see is if imie info were stored in the back up, and I don't believe it is but I don't know for sure.

(sprint phones would be highly discouraged due to wimax keys)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
Yes, and it worked perfectly fine. From what I have been told there is nothing in the nandroid that is "phone specific."

However, if the problem you are having on your original phone is software related you will carry it over to the new phone.

I did have a problem going from Froyo->GB but what I did was install a GB ROM first then it worked fine as per one of the devs recommendations .

Whay not just backup USER APPS ONLY with Titanium Backup and restore that. That worked fine on any OS for me.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Royal King:
I'm planning to buy HTC Wildfire / Samsung Galaxy Ace / HTC Wildfire S.

I don't know what to do :(

HTC Wildfire:

Pros:

Sense, Many ROMS, little more RAM.

Cons:

Less pixels, smaller screen, Lesser Batter Life.

Samsung Galaxy Ace:

Pros:

More pixels, larger phone, better battery life

Cons:

Less RAM (278 or something), ****ty TouchWiz, Not many ROMs available till now.

Please help me decide!!

Check this for comparison

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Get the Ace...

(or the wildfire S)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Royal King:
Yes, I'm reconsidering HTC Wildfire S!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
The original's biggest flaw is the lack of GPU, which makes 3d games imposible/way to laggy :(
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Galaxy Ace costs 15K. If you have that budget, I would strongly recommend you extend it by 5K (Wait a little if you cant extend it immediately), and get the Nexus S. Stay clear of the original Wildfire, seriously. Also, going by current trends, it seems there is not much interest in the Wildfire S, and even AlphaRev X failed for it, so there is no idea really when it will get root and custom ROMs.

I am sure you will find the Nexus S far more enjoyable then you can ever find the SG Ace or Wildfire S, more so if you enjoy modding and flashing Custom ROMs.

Another alternative is the ZTE Blade. (Dell XCD35). It beats both, has a lot of Custom ROMs and interest, and costs just 10K. Also, its HDPI, which is a big advantage.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Royal King:
I had considered Nexus S before but my dad isn't going to allow me to increase the budget :(
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Even if you postpone your timeframe to buy? That's unfortunate. Did you consider the Dell?

EDIT: Consider the Motorola Defy as well. I forgot about it, but, I had an opportunity to play with it, and, it was awesome. :) Besides, it seems the Defy also has an active community. (And also includes the eyecandy MIUI ROM. ;))
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bx19:
If you are looking for HTC sense then no option from me. I would suggest to use a 3rd party launcher like lpp in any device.

Then options from me are blade, defy, nexus s. I know they are already suggested.

Go for blade if your budget is low and if you don't give importance to camera.

Last time I checked angry birds on my friends defy stock Rom without overclock. It's far better than on wildfire with overclock. Wildfire lacks gpu which makes gaming horrible. Consider gpu also.

And if you can wait for the nexus s budget, better wait. And in the meanwhile you may get even better options.

Personally, I'm ready to swap my wildfire for blade ( at the moment ) if any of my friends are interested in camera or flash. Definitely ignore wildfire.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brilldoctor:
i wouldnt advise a wildfire due to the age. you may be able to get a old desire cheap though.

Hi. I currently am on att stock 1.83 rooted with gingerbreak and gladenable. But I am doing a warranty enchange and need to return it back to stock. I tried using the sbf file but after I put in the password" atrixdl" I get a error that something is broken and cannot open. I do have ADB working but have never used it before. Any help would be great thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xenocyde:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RPK925:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duby1186:
I know when u root ur phone and have custom roms it voids ur warranty. My front facing camera appears half working. U can see image only half way and other half is a blurry grey and nothing. I thought it was the case I'm using but even when removed, camera is chopped. The back cam is fine.

If I odin back to stock, will I pass for being able to take my phone to sprint and have it fixed or replaced? I have ins. Thanks

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duby1186:
Is there any recamendations as to what I should do or not do after I'm back to stock? Shud I redownload apps or no? If my phone is replaced, will my google market apps still be saved when I loginto my account or do I have to find and reinstall them? Same with titanium backup, will I loose all my data/apps I backed up when I reinstall it on a new device?

I just want to be prepared thanks!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Synyster06Gates:
My battery sometimes runs out early on me, so I installed JuiceDefender. It significantly increased my batteries life, BUT some times it will randomly kill my radio completely. I don't know unless I check my phone, but it displays the X where the bars are. This is extremely inconvenient. Does anyone else know a similar app or a fix to this problem?

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Foggy79:
Doesn't that happen when he switches between 2G and 3G mode?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Synyster06Gates:
I think so, but my 3g never works... I'm using a T-Mobile phone on the ATT network. And it won't come back on until I shut the phone off then back on.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] agentfazexx:
Yeah, it kind of stopped working properly for me. It was good while it lasted.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Ok, I'm not sure what's going on or how to fix this. Yesterday, I couldn't connect to the market, it kept telling me it was a network error. I could still browse the internet no problem. Then I notice that Facebook wasn't updating, so it is a connection issue. It's weird that I could still browse the internet and Google+ would load my streams as well as upload photos that were taken. I decided to do a full wipe (data/cache/dalvik) and re-install Oxygen2.1.6.

The re-install went fine, but now I still cannot connect to the Market so my apps aren't re-installing. Any ideas what might fix this since a full wipe didn't help?

Nothing had changed between the connection working and it not working. The phone wasn't rebooted, nothing changed in my APN settings either. Connection bars are all green.

Everything works fine when I'm connected to wifi.

*Restoring a previous backup doesn't work either and whenever I try to re-flash 2.1.6 I get a bootloop. So confused.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Nobody knows?

Really don't want to flash the RUU and re-root/s-off again if I don't have to. Just seems weird to me that this was working one evening then suddenly not working the next day with no re-boot or anything different installed in between.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robots3humans0:
I'm not using a desire but rather a nexus s.. but I'm having the exact same issue. I've tried just about everything except unrooting to fix it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
I'm going to try flashing a different radio when I get home but I can't really see that fixing it as it's been working with no issues since I first rooted it a while back.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robots3humans0:
I tried several radios with no success. Its so strange. Gmail, xda, browser work.. but no market, Facebook, or twitter widget updates from launcher pro. I'm so confused.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Yea, all the same here. My YouTube app doesn't work either.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentiZen:
I've been experiencing the same problems. I've been researching and tinkering and I've found some interesting things out.

First off I am going to assume that you two are on the TELUS network, you never said but that is what I am on and I have heard no information about it occuring on other networks

I noticed it yesterday and initiated several re-flashes and radio updates, none of which helped. Today I went into TELUS and they told me that they have been having alot of people with the telus bravo encountering similar issues. So instead of frowning and walking out I decided to ask if I could speak to the technician.

According to him the issue is not a connection to the network, rather that either the phones radio or the network is dropping the connection partway through data transfer. Therefore you can get through the connection, DNS and handshake processes, but it will fail during the transfer of data, but at no specified time. So I could use Grasscities Tapatalk app because it was just transferring text and other light data, but downloading large amounts of data winds up failing, which is why you can’t get market to work. TELUS does not know if the issue is only affecting desires (looks like it’s wider than just that) or if it is happening on any other network. They are in the information gathering phase and still waiting on a reply from HTC’s technical team to see if it is a problem affecting the radios.

I’ve spent most of the last 48 hours trying to solve this problem with no luck. TELUS has assigned me top level case advisement so I will update this thread as I know more about the problem. In the meantime, and I know how much it sucks, you will have to stick with wifi (as will I T_T)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robots3humans0:
Yeah, I'm on Telus. That would explain why a friend with a Nexus S on Rogers had no problems at all. I sure hope Telus figures this out soon. For now, I'm subscribing to this thread and hoping you hear something back. I'll update if I notice my data connection has returned to normal. Thanks for the info!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Also on Telus. Thanks so much for the update. I was thinking it was something on their part and have been meaning to call them but I'm at work. Just kinda assumed it wasn't their fault since some data did work, but it's good to have an answer.

Now I just need to figure out why my phone keeps bootlooping on a fresh 2.1.6 Oxygen install.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentiZen:
No problem guys, I know how frazzled you feel; I’ve been the exact same way for the last 48 hours.

Though I must say I am surprised that the forums are not all aflutter with discussion about this. The way the technician at TELUS was talking it sounded like they were getting a lot of calls about this. But dear freaking god I hope they get this solved soon… and if not then they had better let me out of my contract.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hiquin:
glad to hear it's not just me.. this has been happening since I went and saw U2 at the Rogers Centre in Toronto Monday night.. Every time I tried to upload pics I was taking at the concert it would just pause on the upload, or fail out completely.. my signal was dropping to nothing there as well.. I thought, being at the "Rogers" centre, that perhaps they'd set up a Telus signal blocking station ;)

But then the problems have continued through to today. Some stuff kinda works.. I can get FB and Twitter updates from my Colorize Widgets, but can't actually use the FB app. twitter.com works, but facebook.com doesn't. google works sometimes.. but most pages time out in the manner mentioned above.

Quite annoying.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
That's weird. This has been happening since yesterday for me, but last night it had no problems Instant Uploading pictures to Google+.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robots3humans0:
Some functionality has returned for me. Market still won't load.. but Facebook half-loads and the twitter widget in launcherpro is loading again. They must be working on it. I hope they fix it all soon.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Still all down on my end. Hope it gets resolved by tomorrow.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robots3humans0:
All function has been restored for me. Hope you guys are good too.

[HTC Sensation] BEWBTUBE:
Personally, it feels cluttered. I feel like I'm browsing a website that has so many ads surrounding its content, except those "ads" are actually content. Yes, it is an improvement over the previous market, but it isn't very aesthetically appealing on those "home" type screens. The 2 column app screens, however, are wonderful. I am also experiencing a little bit of stuttering here and there, but that could be down to the software/hardware issues inherent in a stock Sensation.

I ran into the same problem. My phone plays crystal clear music through every other bluetooth device except my Belkin. Apparently, this is an all too common problem with this particular receiver. There is a sliver of hope if you are unsatisfied with the terrible range of your Belkin though - there is a metal plate located under the circuit board inside your device. Remove it and it will extend the range of your device to the advertised 30 feet or whatever it is. As far as the sound quality, I'm afraid you're SOL, partner. Thanks and Gig 'em!

I then followed this guide using the talk with av.zip version via the adb instructions.

You will have to substitute the remount line with the correct defy line :-

I got a adb shell , su'd to root then issued a :-

mount -o remount,rw -t ext3 /dev/block/mmsblk1p21 /system

Finally I added the googleservices apk after extracting the alternative3 zip file to a temp directory, and pushed it to /system/apps.

This for me had me have to run through the google talk registration/login session again. No biggie.

After that I was able to get a two way videochat going with a laptop user. The first couple of times the video from the phone failed, but it all just started working for some random reason.

Of course the defy doesn't have a front mounted camera, but I do however own a mirror, low tech but works great...

Have fun. The voice chat works great too..
