[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbb18:
Hi there..yes im a new guy ¬_¬.

So I want to root my wildfire (i know how to do it). The problem is i like HTC Sense and the new version that came for the 2.3 devices, iv'e been looking around for a bit trying to find a Sense rom on 2.3 and have so far failed.

1) Are there any 2.3 Sense ROMs out there for the wildfire?

2) If not are there any themes that mimic Sense for CyanogenMod 7? (I would prefer if the 'people' and 'message' apps looked like sense to because i dont want to open them and find that it look different to sense.) (Also if ii was to do this i presume that i wouldn't be able to keep the HTC widgets so would there be anyway to add them in?)

3)If the above just isn't available id prefer to stay on the stock 2.2.1 sense rom, how could i overclock with it? (i understand it has something to do with replacing a kernel but i don't know how to do this.)

Thank you in advance. :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Yes, you are new and you obviously haven't looked properly. -.-

1) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1067868

2) Not possible to get Sense Apps to Non - Sense ROMs like Cyanogenmod

3) Replacing a kernel is the same as installing a ROM. Place kernel Zip on SDCard, Reboot into Clockworkmod Recovery, Select Install Zip from SDCard, select kernel Zip, done.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbb18:
Well i did look and saw that and was a bit too unfinished for me but thanks anyway.

Looks like i'll probably replace the kernel to overclock and see if anything new will come out or possibly move to CM7.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Don't forget to take a nandroid backup before moving to CM7, so you can easily revert if CM's messaging, contacts, camera app etc dont suit you. :p

Hi, wanted to know if there is any program out there, that would tell you how much charge is left in your batt. Cos my batt seems to be losing it's charge faster and faster

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beau420:
There's an app called Current Widget. Place the widget on your homescreen then charge your phone. When your phone reaches 67% leave it for half an hour or so then take a look at the widget, what mAh does it say the battery is accepting?

Search and install the Current Widget.

it will confirm that your phone is fully charging. But if you battery is losing power faster, have you installed any more apps?

Or take a look at your Managed Applications. Any apps running in the background will increase how much battery power is being used.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyIHardlyKnewYa:
Good evening ladies and gentlemen!

I'm currently using GingerVillain 2.7 for a while now and I have one minor question.

It would be great if I could see some sort of notification on the lockscreen that I had missed calls/unread messages and not just in the notification bar. You know, something small like "1missed call".

Is it possible to realize it or not really?

Thanks.

Not on the default lockscreen - but with WidgetLocker, yes.

You can use notification widgets on that app.

Hi. I dont use SD card , because 5GB of internal memory is enough for me, but when I try to use camera it just write: Inseret SD card before using camera. Even photogalery wont load pictures from internal memory of the phone

I am using cyanogen latest nightly build (but with RC1 it was the same problem)

Anyone know solution to this problem ?

[Omnia 7 General] swifmcvay:
Hi,

I got a new samsung mobile phone yesterday, and not being very clued up with phones, I managed to set a password on the phone, I cannot remember it

So when I turn the phone on it asks me for my password,

Does anyone know how to reset it back to factory defaults??

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks
[Omnia 7 General] ZaForD:
Theres two possible options that may work.

Go online and login into your Live ID account.

Under devices you should see your phone listed.

There you have options to Find, Trace, Lock and Erase your phone.

Try locking it, then leave it a couple of minutes and see if that lock code now unlocks it fully.

Turn the Phone OFF.

Then switch it ON, by holding the Power Button + Camara Button + Vol Down Buttons. You'll have the option to Format the Phone, this will reset it back to Factory Settings.

You'll have to set it up again, but at least you can use it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghettomuffin:
I just picked up a Galaxy Tab last night after a long debate. Ive had the Xoom since it launched but the washed out screen and lag made me decide to make the jump. I had no problems with the Galaxy Tab until today. Now, my browser force closes within a few minutes of surfing. Im not yet rooted as im undecided if i want to keep it. Does anyone else have this issue or has had it in the past? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Berner:
From my personal experience and from threads in the forum, stock browser crashes are unfortunately not uncommon. The ray of sunshine is that since flashing the leaked unofficial Touchwiz update, the stock browser has not crashed once. Indeed, I find the Touchwiz stock browser to be faster, more stable, and easier to use than any of Firefox, Dolphin or Opera (all of which are good alternatives, btw).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghettomuffin:
After various troubleshooting i just decided to see if a reboot would help it and so far it has. Im thinking the Galaxy Tab just cant handle as many procceses or isn't shutting them down as well as the Xoom does. Thanks for the input though. This thing still kicks the snot out of the "Flagship Honeycomb Device".
[Galaxy S II General] miceormen:
Hey all

I've just finished an 18 month contract with O2 for a HD2 - which I've just given a refresh with CyanogenMod.

Given contracts are 24 month minimum now for anything decent (free) - should I stick with the HD2 for 12 months on a cheapo sim free deal or upgrade to the SII?

Is it worth it?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
Upgrade mate i had a HD2 for a year and a half and a superb phone it was as well but this phone is unbeatable.

I bought mine outright as i hate being tied into long contracts never again.
[Galaxy S II General] Dr.Sid:
As hardware goes, it is not worth it. SGS2 is about the same, except it is a lot lighter. As for software, well .. its different OS. All is different .. something better, something worse. It really depends what you use the phone for.
[Galaxy S II General] arronov:
i will stick to HTC HD2 as it more solid case than SGS II...
[Galaxy S II General] miceormen:
Hmm.. The advantage of going sim only is I'm paying half as much for basically the same tariff - and with CyanogenMod NAND the HD2 is much much improved over running it off sd or windows bloody mobile 6.5.

Support for the HD2 isn't going anywhere anytime soon either is it?

And I don't have the money to buy the SGS2 outright - although I am off to Shanghai in about 3 weeks so I might find one there on the cheeap.
[Galaxy S II General] crush:
on what reasons mate? do you own both phones ? @miceormen

I think you should upgrade if you are technology freak like any of us owning a SGII :D
[Galaxy S II General] XPLANE9:
Hardware is about the same? You do realize that hardware goes beyond the outer casing right? The SoC to start is a dual core ARM A9 compared to the first generation Snapdragon single core, with the ARM A9 alone offering about a 25% speed improvement per core compared to the Snapdragon. The GPU, a Mali 400, is miles better than the Adreno 200, which even the Power SGX 540 bested by at least three times. The screen size is the same, but the SGSII offers much better contrast and viewing angles with its Super Amoled Plus compared to the TFT LCD on the HD2. And this time around, no Pentile! The SGSII camera is much better than the HD2, no comparisons needed.

Samsung's software on the SGSII is actually superb and without lag, unlike its previous generations, and Touchwiz 4.0 actually offers quite an array of improvements to the standard AOSP Android. Take the butter smooth browser as an example.

Unless you truly want the next greatest (Nexus Prime or Tegra 3), then go for it. The Nexus Prime shouldn't offer a huge technological leap over the SGSII, but it does come with AOSP Android. However, heavy development for the SGSII should make up for updates in the case that Samsung chooses to move slowly (Samsung has improved drastically on its update schedules however).

I wouldn't hold on to the HD2 for long since the touchscreen digitzer is bound to fail over time, due to the power button applying pressure to the touchscreen ribbon connector.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
I sold my HD2 and an MP3 player to fund my purchase of the GS2 i wanted it that much, i have been in long mobile contracts before, it's worse in the UK 24 months now is usually the norm i was only on an 18 month one but too long and there's nothing you can do unless you pay off your contract,i missed out on some great deals in that time so i swore never again,a rolling monthly contract or PAYG is the only one for me now.

As regards the HD2, i wont have a bad word said against this amazing phone,probably the most "loved" device on XDA but it's time to move on to bigger and better things and it doesn't get much better than the GS2. :)
[Galaxy S II General] miceormen:
Fair enough. Well I think the best plan is to serve up an ultimatum to O2 who I've been with for 8 years and either get a fantastic 18 month SGS2 deal or keep my HD2 and get a Tesco sim. Customer loyalty doesn't seem to mean a great deal these days..

[Galaxy S II General] ftrippie:
same problem

Hi Guys,

Having the same problem here, I am very happy with the HD2 with the Platinum ROM of Laurentius26, that I am scratching my head now what to do!

My question is more like stay with the HD2 (Platinum ROM), go with the Galaxy S2 or wait for the iphone5?

The reason is that I am going to receive 2 new Samsung Galaxy S2 via my provider. My initial idea was to sell them (unopened, unused = more money), stay with the HD2 for the moment and wait for the iphone5 to buy and try out. But now I am reading everywhere that the GS2 is such a magnificent device, and I am starting to doubt. Together with the fact that the HD2 is working perfectly for me, but, being a technician, would like to check out the latest.

I am using my device mainly for:

- calling (of course, but good call quality is important)

- SMS (with Swype, absolutely)

- TomTom (I have heard Sygnic is similar, but have a hard time leaving TT)

- Flashlight (unbelievable how many times I am using the flash as a light)

- camera and video (shooting and viewing)

- syncing with Outlook ( a must, but push email is not needed)

- web browsing every now and then

What do you think?
[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:

Ha, but this might be the issue, the Platinum ROM is soo made for the HD2, I couldn't even be bothered to try out Android or Win7 on the HD2... yep, the ROM is Win6.5 :-)

The best thing i done was get rid of WIN 6.5 on my old HD2 and put NAND Android on it, the HD2 should have been an Android handset from the start.
[Galaxy S II General] OrionCarl:
I love my HD2, but this phone is far better in every way, I got my GS2 for 18 month contract, only 21 quid a month, god bless 02 customer loyalty!top deal
[Galaxy S II General] OrionCarl:
not agree with that, I got less issues with my NAND droid rom on my HD2, then with my GS2, infact its flawless my HD2!
[Galaxy S II General] Raudi1:
I was a loyal Windows Mobile user since 2003. Had several devices and only the HD2 could live somewhat up to being a really usable device. I had tested Android on my Blackstone and there it was like WinMo nearly unusable. So when I tried out Android on my HD2 simply because I was bored and wanted to see what my device could do, I was surprised. It was faster and more stable than any WinMo device/Rom combo I have ever used. Many features didn't work, but it didn't matter to me. Since then I have become an Android fan, since it is much more user friendly, stable, faster, looks better and has better support for new apps. Never went back to WinMo besides updating quickGPS. Now Android works nearly flawless on the HD2. But I decided to get a SGS2 from ebay, since it has a better screen, camera (It's really muuuuch better) and media playback capabilities.(including HDMI) In everyday usage it isn't really faster than my HD2 since that would be nearly impossible. But another aspect I didn't consider would prevent me from switching back now : The weight. It feels much better in the hand, especially if you are reading a book or surf for a long time. And everything just works out of the box. I nevertheless got a custom ROM with root and switched to ADW launcher since I got accustomed to their benefits on my HD2. Will switch to CyanigenMod as soon as codecs, OTG and MHL are fully working. But considering that these are all features the HD2 does not have, I would say CM is as far as it is on the HD2. Also the HD2 isn't sturdier than the HD2. My HD2 can be twisted and there is a gap between case and battery cover. My SGS2 does not have these problems.

In the end I would say the choice depends on your preferences and money. When I looked at eBay 2 weeks ago, the HD2s with similar or worse conditions then mine got prices from 200-250€ min. I bought it 1.5 years ago for 350€. Now I bought my SGS2 for 450€(that was the Max price I was ready to pay). When I get around to it, I will sell my HD2 and I won't regret it. I had a great time with it and there probably will never be a phone which was it's time that much ahead(there are many new devices inferior to the HD2, in fact pretty much everything up to the release of the SGS2 wasn't much of an improvement if any at all) and could break the software restrictions (thanks to the community) that much. But everything has an expiration date. And for tech junkies that has been reached for the HD2, I think.
[Galaxy S II General] steviewonders:
I came from a HD2 and although it was a great phone the SGS2 is better. The SGS2 has a better processor and more RAM. It natively supports android. It has a better camera and due to it's popularity it's likely to have a lot of 3rd party development. However the wifi signal is really poor and the camera flash isn't as bright as on the HD2. Though the HD2's flash was often too bright and caused people to squint. If the wifi signal was improved through firmware then this would be a nearly perfect phone. I'm sure Samsung will eventually get this fixed. Hopefully soon as well!!
[Galaxy S II General] bocsta:
Original winmo user up to HD 2 which was a great phone

But how many times have I pulled the battery on my hd2 before going to G2.... way too many

Custom Roms all the way on every device but the G2 is a sexy beast and up until 1 week ago I've never pulled the battery on it

I think my G2 has a hardware issue now but it'll be sorted with a replacement I hope

[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
I'll agree and disagree with you :D i think you maybe right about the Wi-Fi, it's not that bad but i don't believe it's as strong as my old HD2, i have to disagree about camera flash, it's pretty much the same if not brighter on the GS2.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
I certainly do not agree here, i had NAND Android on my old HD2 for a long time and had lots of issues, that's not to say it wasn't a top phone as it is but ive had little or no issues since ive had my GS2.
