[Xperia Play General] Mozza2k11:
Just depends on what you want. Not had a chance to play with the droid x but i cannot reccomend the xplay enough if you want a gaming phone. I dont play games all the time but its nice to know when i do im not missing half of the screen with my fingers covering everything.

The Xperia play is aimed @ gamers. If you have the desire to play on Fpse or emulators or any game where the d-pad can be used get the xperia play. Since proper gaming on anything but xperia play is pointless.

The Xplay only has a 5 MP camera and no hd video vs 8 MP camera and hd video on the droid. So if thats something you want dont get the xperia play.

The internal memory is only like 400 MB. But i have enough apps and games on my phone and im still around 180mb. Plenty really.

The speaker on the Xplay are awesome as well. Best i have seen personally.

The battery life on the xperia play is amazing. I dont think ive ever seen anything like it (unless you buy a massive battery)

Played games for a few hours, some browsing, normal use on calls and texts e.t.c and im still above 50%. I once had the battery last around 50+ hours with moderate useage.

The xperia play is on 2.3.3 (which can be rooted with a locked bootloader) and is getting the 2.3.4 update in october.

I would not swap my xplay for anything. If no xperia play 2 comes out il be keeping this long past my contract renewal :D

Also you didnt say which xperia play is being offered in the swap? R800i, R800a, r800x, R800at ? You cannot root or unlock the bootloader on the r800x and i think you can root but not unlock the bootloader on the R800a and R800at. R800i you can root and unlock the bootloader
[Xperia Play General] speedyink:
I hear ya there. Once you play some games on this thing it's hard to imagine switching to any of the other phones. I don't game all the time but when I do it's great. And it functions quite well as just a phone too.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
I bought my Xperia Play for one thing - Emulation.

There is currently no other phone on the market that plays games as well as the Xperia Play.

Touchscreen gaming sucks. It really does suck. Play a game on control pad, then play it on touchscreen. You will see how much it sucks. IT SUCKS !

Ok rant over.

If you like emulation and some nifty little gameloft games, then yes, get the Play. I wouldnt swap my Play for any other phone.

If you dont like gaming, then get another phone.

Simple choice really :)
[Xperia Play General] JasonKnight:
If he has the Droid X I am going to assume Verizon.

Our version of the Xperia is locked down pretty heavily.

Limited function with Facebook

Android version 2.3.2 with no update available yet.

Third party game sites like Gameloft are unavailable for purchases and downloads.

No root yet since Sony Ericsson is not willing to work with us to unlock the boot loader due to an agreement with Verizon wireless not wanting people to root their phones to give them free WiFi Tethering.

And according to the rest of the android community we own a disgrace of a phone that is not worth the time of day.

I have read that some people have Whatsapp working on their TF.

I only looked over it, not in detail. They did something by installing it on their phone and back the whole app up with titanium backup. Then the restored it on their TF.

I know we got like 1 gb of ddr2, what kind of RAM do you see phones having by November? 1.5? Ddr3?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runcool:
Well, IBM is working on a new RAM technology that is able to increase the ram amount to 16GB's in phones. Also, we are now putting solid state drives in our phones that have 1.5TB's. All of this will hit the market in Jan of 2012. lol!

I'm an ass. lol!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilman355:
Article?? The ram makes sense... a little. If its onboard. But the storage? Hell no.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runcool:
Now you know I was joking right? hahaha. the only reason our phones would need 16GBs of Internal Ram would be umm well, they don't! hahaha. Solid state drives? that's what the memory is! hahahahaha. okay, I'll shut up and go hide in a corner now for timeout. lol.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
I'm thinking 2gb of ram maybe and 16-32gb on board storage. Not sure what type of ram because a few companies (IBM, Samsung, etc) have new memory technology for phones. Not sure how fast it will be implemented. Probably by November it will still be the same type as used now. Just more of it.

Also might depend on the type of processor used in the phone. If it is quad core might work better with different chips.

Edit: only on touchwiz roms
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] NyPlaya513:
no it is not, unless you got your tab within the last like day and they put touchwiz on it. you would have to have rooted your tab, intalled the rom for touchwiz
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Berner:
Its pre-installed in the Touchwiz rom available here, but not in the stock retail. Whether it'll be in the official Touchwiz update remains to be seen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] vansmack:
And for those that don't know, you can also install Swype on the tab without being rooted and without TW. Just go to the Swype Beta page...

The non-preinstalled version (or beta version) gets updated much more often than preinstalled versions.

So i installed SenseHERO 1.4 +BFS304_10mb on my G1 and also then flashed gapps-mdpi-tiny but once i load up my phone i notice there is no android market. I've also tired gapps-mdpi without any luck. I wiped everything from my phone before putting anything on.

Is there a special version of google apps that i need or am i doing something wrong?? Any help would be much appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahroze:

[HD7 General] Yuvan:
Hi,

Background

I had issues with the back button and the home(windows) button not functioning on my HD7 (brand new, bought off craigslist though). I tried to reset the phone a couple of times, roll it back to pre-nodo, flash a custom rom "by ansar" and nothing worked. the back button and the home button still don't function, or they're very glitchy.

Question

How do i flash my HD7 back to the original stock rom that was shipped with TMOUS version?? More importantly, where can I find this ROM/RADIO? I need to send for warranty repair and I dont want them to refuse service based on the fact that I installed a ROM from XDA.

Thanks,

Yuvan

It will be the second one from the bottom. (9.1 BR)

Also try (9.2 BR) to see if it fixes ur problem its the lastest ROM for the T mobile HTC HD7
[HD7 General] Yuvan:
thanks. I will try both of them, but I believe I loaded one of them already with no luck. If these fail, I should be able to send for warranty repair with these ROMS without encountering issues for tampering?
[HD7 General] Yuvan:
Update: so, none of the roms fixed my button issues :mad: I have to send this stupid **** in for repair now. I'm disappointed with HTC and TMOBILE service to get this fixed. I wish they would have given me a loaner. I just got this phone too, but off craigslist (brand new though). grrr :mad::(
[HD7 General] nxt:
HTC does advance device replacements. Ask about it when u call them. They will send u a replacement phone then u send your phone in, and if they verify your phone is damaged, you're done.
[HD7 General] Yuvan:
Thanks for the suggestion. I just called them and they told me that they don't have advanced device replacement program for the HD7. I'm going to send my device in tomorrow. I'm using a friends International HD2, which gets only Edge on TMobile US. I've purchased 6 or 7 HTC devices in the past 4 years. If they end up making excuses for repair or replacement, goodbye HTC, hello Nokia!!

hi guys,

I´ve got a Olipad 100 from Olivetti.

Is the Olipad the same as a Viewsonic G Tablet?

The Olipad looks nice for the price of 400€, but is it possible to change the firmware or to deactivate the Tap´n´Tap UI?

I saw some more owners of it in the xda forums...

Are some dev´s interrested in the Olipad?

Is it anyway possible to get the android market for it?

I send 2 *.baks from market files to it, but they don´t work.

could it be an inspiration? or just a strange coincidence?

[Captivate General] straw55:
[/B]Samsung is preparing to release the Galaxy S2 at last! We give you the latest on the Attain, Within, Function and Hercules inside.

Shin Jong-kyun, President of Samsung Mobile Business and Digital Imaging, told a Korean newspaper this week that the Galaxy S2 will be launched in the U.S. market sometime in August. While Samsung has released several new Android smartphones in recent months, such as the Droid Charge for Verizon and Infuse 4G for AT&T, the new flagship we've all been waiting has only appeared in leaks and rumors. The Galaxy S2 is by far the most feature-rich smartphone Samsung has come up with to date, and is expected to be available on several carriers.

Samsung Attain for AT&T

Ever since the Samsung Attain appeared on Samsung's official Facebook page in early June, it's basically just been a matter of time before we would see an official release. Last year's Captivate shined like a true star a year ago, and the Attain is expected to be a worthy successor. TouchWIZ 4 atop Android 2.3 Gingerbread is the name of the game for the Attain, coupled with a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, 4G HSPA+ connectivity, dual-core processor and 1GB RAM. In other words, it'll pretty much challenge the ATRIX 4G by Motorola directly, and could eventually give the iPhone 5 a hard time.

Samsung Within for Sprint

A hands-on photo of what is expected to be the Samsung Within for Sprint appeared only a few days ago. This version is specifically said to offer Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, the recently released version that enables Google Talk video chats via Sprint's 4G network. The Within is also expected to offer integrated Google Voice and Google Wallet services. Like the Attain, it's also expected to offer a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, 8-megapixel rear-facing and 2-megapixel front-facing cameras, as well as being packed with power under the hood in true Galaxy S2-grade style.

Samsung Function for Verizon

When Verizon introduced the Fascinate last fall, it instantly became a top-seller courtesy of its social networking focus. The follow-up, the Continuum, took the concept even further. However, the upcoming Samsung Function is expected to not only embrace the social networking crowd, but also business users. The Function has been equipped with Stealth MMXI technology, and is expected to take on the Droid Bionic in the "über-smartphone with 4G LTE connectivity" category this fall. Who the heck needs the 3G-only Verizon iPhone 5, anyway.

Samsung Hercules for T-Mobile

The Samsung Vibrant ruled T-Mobile's HSPA network last year, and the Samsung Hercules aims to rule the carrier's HSPA+ network this year, promising theoretical speeds of 42Mbps downlink and 6 Mbps uplink. While details of the Hercules are scarce, TmoNews recently reported that it is slated for release in late September. We imagine that's also when the above-mentioned Function for Verizon will appear, as they'll probably not all be released simultaneously. Interestingly, TmoNews has heard that it may get a 4.5-inch screen as opposed to the 4.3-inch screen found in the original Galaxy S2.
[Captivate General] [FNF]LoBot:
Im ready now.

It's about time we get this Beautiful Beast.:D I will be getting this and the Hercules when it's released in September.:D

I will eagerly await to see what the Great Developers come up with for these. I may even toss in a few requests after I see what they can and can not do.

WooHoo:cool:
[Captivate General] straw55:
That makes 2 of us LOL, I been waiting (it seems forever), for this monster too. I still have a few friends at AT&T. (used to work there), and one is a manager at store, so maybe get in on first batch hehe. good luck !

[Captivate General] RCDuke:
My birthday is also in August, but I'm in the middle of a contract right now, so I highly doubt I'll be picking up the Attain anytime soon. I still love my Captivate, even if the battery life kinda sucks on any ROM but completely stock.
[Captivate General] Eyeronik:
Excited for rogers to release something to rival the sgs2 for me to warrant me to get rid of my cappy.
[Captivate General] bluemoon1221:
If sgs II came out in june-july i would have already bought it

However im just gonna wait for android 4.0. now. Captivate is still a decent phone :)

[Captivate General] RockRatt:
My two cappys are GREAT PHONES. One with CM7 perfection and the other with either the i897 Gingerbread or right now Apex 8.2 and I Love them Both. The ONLY phone I will TRADE UP for is the SGS2. I just tested my cappy cm7 against the Atrix 4G yesterday at the ATT store and my cappy was faster using speedtest than the atrix 4g side by side. Just barely beat it in upload and download speeds but it DID. So to me the SGS2 should BLOW it away. I also found out that I available for my next upgrade on August 31st. So HOPEFULLY lime my Cappy's 1007 builds it will be the second builds without the issues of the first builds :)

[Captivate General] stanggman75:
I can't wait. I love my Captivate with Pheonix unleashed, but the Galaxy S II is the ultimate sounding phone. I would actually use the HDMI out alot, the front cam not so much.
[Captivate General] skeepon:
my birthday is in august as well. august ftw!
[Captivate General] CatFan:
I wouldn't dream of being one of the first in line for one. After the horrible initial release and ensuing support from Samsung on the Galaxy S they have a long way to go to prove to me I should "upgrade". They obviously do not care if they rush out flawed hardware and when they do there is absolutely no effort to make things work properly. I'm mainly talking about the GPS issues but others as well. If I am buying into a device that is supposed to showcase a "location aware" OS then I sure would like it if my device had some clue where I was at. It doesn't even get the state I'm in correct a lot of the time, if it tells me where I'm at at all! I'm eligible for an upgrade in 2 months and my wife's HTC Inspire seems to be fairly dependable. I know for one thing the speed sure makes my Captivate look like decades old technology. If Samsung had shown any loyalty to us early Galaxy owners then I might feel a little loyalty back. Since they care about the almighty dollar more than they care about the customer then I will respond likewise. If HTC, which I've had HUGE success with in the past, offers me a good deal I'll happily jump ship from Samsung.
[Captivate General] emuneee:
Yea it's going to be extremely hard for me to buy another carrier branded handset. Unlocked is the way to go. Glad they are finally getting the SGS2 out in the US though.
[Captivate General] Nerz:
If I had the funds, and that is exactly how I would go. Unfortunately I can't pay an excess of 500 dollars, so I would need a carrier subsidized phone.
[Captivate General] emuneee:
Buy a phone on contract (iPhone is good for this purpose) and sell it full price then buy the phone you want. :)

Support issues become fishy though.
[Captivate General] sblees:
I certainly hope they fixed the gps on the new release. I have been majorly disappointed in the gps functionality of the captivate.
[Captivate General] Nerz:
Yea. I'd be worried about that because I have insurance on my phone and use at least once or twice during a phones contract period due to my carelessness. Although I think they might still honor a insurance claim, I'm almost sure they won't do a warranty claim from those circumstances.
[Captivate General] techguy615:
Loving my cappy still, but wish it had a forward facing camera and a flash. The GPS is better than it used to be due to some tweaks here and there. I also just installed the Telenav free version for the vibrant 4g and going to give it a jog this week on a road trip to see how it does.

[Captivate General] nash2000:
I'll be getting it for sure. I currently have the captivate, infuse and inspire, I bought the inspire off craigslist for $200 and gave it to my gf. Her upgrade is up in August so she'll probably buy the gs2 and ill see captivate and inspire for $500 I hope and pick up the galaxy.
[LG Optimus Black] selfade:
Hi there.

Planning to buy LG OB, but got some questions. Hope you can answer them.

1. How good is GPS? Can I use it instead of odometer on my bicycle?

2. What about update? When do you think that 2.3 will come out for branded phone (T-mobile)? Much later than on non branded? Late September?

3. Is anybody using some docking station? Has using od dock any advantages?

4. Whattabout high power accu? 1500 isn`t much, i`d appreciate something more.

5. Is it possible to turn off camera sound? (at least in silent mode?)

Thank you guys very much for any answer. I`m considering LG OB vs HTC Desire S. Dunno which one to take, but OB looks great.
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
1. GPS works great for me. Fast and accurate

2. LG has confirmed the update will be in September. You should ask about branded update to T-mobile, if they even say anything to you about that.

3.--

4. Battery isn't bad, but it's a smartphone. I get a day without much care (let's say 24 hours, from morning to morning, so you have a day without worry)

5. It is not possible to turn camera sound in stock official ROM, neither in Silent mode. With custom ROM you can install the modified camera apk without sound.

:)
[LG Optimus Black] selfade:
Thanks for reply,

1. that`s good :)

2. hm i doubt that they gonna say something, but maybe i`ll try

4. i understand how smartphones consumes battery power, but still would prefer to have 3 days with light usage

5. Sh*t, that`s no good. I was hoping not to root my phone. I read somewhere, that app called Camera360 fixes this problem. It`s free, so perhaps you could try it?
[LG Optimus Black] rashad1:
You know what's funny? My stock rom had an option to mute the camera shutter sound, but the Nova ROM does not

you have branded phone?

I don't remember which phone it was, it was not branded. I bought it from Orange in Switzerland, unlocked
[LG Optimus Black] pihx:
1500mAh is not small. It's pretty much what all other smartphones use except the newest dual cores like Galaxy S II and even comparable phones use smaller batteries.
