It really depends on what you wanna get into. For kernel stuff you're gonna need to learn c/c++ which is by no means a quick and easy process. For roms and apps you're gonna need some Java experience. To start I would look at the android developer website. I'm not a developer so I don't really have a lot of advice to give, sorry.

One coworker wants me to trade inspire For his 16gb

Iphone 4 plus boot 75 dollars he is giving me 75 I realy like inspire so im asking 100 plus his phone what do you guys think?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ahm12:
Iphone 4 is worth more than inspire, i ll go for it depending on the condition...
[HTC Inspire 4G] LaGeek:
Get the money, the phone, sell the iphone 4 for 425-450. You end up with ~500. Inspire is 325 on craigslist.

Check online for iphone 4 prices, just to be sure. Last I had looked, it was 425.
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
No Brainer. Inspires sell for 250 on here so even if you want to stick with one you are a couple hundred ahead for your trouble.

Personally though I would make the deal, sell the iphone, and grab a bell htc sensation for an additional 100!
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Get the dollars. it's cool you both be happy.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nismax:
thanks i know i can save some cash, plus now i am thinking about bell htc sensation will it work with att ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] _kansei_:
Yeah Bell Mobility uses the same WCDMA bands as AT&T, you just need to carrier unlock it if the one you buy isn't already unlocked. Other than that you'll need to put in some APN settings but it's all a pretty easy process.

Just make sure you get the 850/1900 model (Bell, some others) and not the 700/2100 model (T-Mobile)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sdobron:
Carrier unlock is not possible yet afaik.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nismax:
Thanks guys I seen some posts that u cant use 3 & 4g eith sensation on att
[HTC Inspire 4G] _kansei_:
It is possible. Can't dig up the thread ATM but plenty of people have done it. It started being possible in the last week or two, the unlockers had to wait for an update of the database for HTC.
[HTC Inspire 4G] _kansei_:
If you buy the T-Mobile version, correct, no WCDMA data will work. That's why it's silly to buy the wrong model. Canadian carriers use the WCDMA bands that AT&T uses. Even better, the Bell HTC Sensation doesn't even have a carrier logo slapped on it like the T-Mobile version does.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nismax:
its awesome phone but its over 500 on ebay. where can i find one for 350?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ahm12:
U cant unless its broken or someone needs money in emergency
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
Thats why I suggested adding 100 to the iPhone/inspire deal and you would wind up with a great phone for a small upgrade cost.

Greetings!

I have an issue while downloading Medscape contents on my X10; it's apparently due to an Ad Blocking app, but I'm not really sure about it.

I've done a search and I can't actually find a solution to my problem but "turn off your adfree app, then download medscape content". My X10 is running the FreeXperia Achtojan rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1151933), and I'm not sure about which app has this ad-blocking function.

Sorry if the solution to this issue can be found elsewhere... I'm a medical student and this app is quite important to me... If anyone know which is the ad-blocker app running on my current rom or has another way to solve my issue, I would really appreciate it!

Thank you very much!.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
So, I cannot seem to get into bootloader on an HD2. This isn't my phone and I did not perform the original flash, so I'm not quite as familiar with the HD2 toolchain.

The problem is simple, I cannot load into the tri color bootloader. I haven't ever been able to, so I don't have anything to trace to what apparently removed it.

I still can however use MAGLDR to boot android from NAND and flash android roms etc.

The trouble is this phone needs to be shipped to HTC for repair and I need to restore to stock, but I cannot reach boot loader to use any tools or flash any stock roms etc. I saw something on the JTAG restore product but I thought wasn't ideal if still under warranty.

Pretty desperate here since the warranty period ends real soon. thanks for any help!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Yerdan:
Just to make sure....In order to reach the boot loader screen, you need to turn off the phone and then hold the volume down button and power button until the boot loader screen pops up. Just making sure you did this!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
yeah, been trying that to no avail :(

Can still get to MAGDLR real easy though.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Yerdan:
Out of curiosity, are any of your buttons not working?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
most are working just fine. Only weird this is the red hang up\power button brings up the shut down menu on a single press from time to time once inside android. I believe it to be caused the original issue (random boot lock ups that take anywhere from 2 min to boot android or 25 min, or doesn't at all before battery dies) but this phone has been so flaky its been impossible at times to reproduce results.

HI,

Sorry I could not help.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nemesis1278:
If I am reading right this sounds like a similar issue which I had. I went from my car which had really cold A/C and then went to my room which was really hot. There was condensation on the phone and did not think much of it. My buttons started either acting strange or not working. First I tried putting the phone in some rice as rice tends to attract water molecules. This did not work. I then sprayed windex with the phone off and batter, sdcard, simcard out and then wiped down the phone put it in the rice for about an hour or 2. After I did this a few times my buttons started working normal again. No more safe mode and all my buttons work.

Either that or your volume down button is just not working. In which case I don't believe there is any other way to enter the bootloader. If you can connect through microsoft activesync you may be able to restore the original windows 6.5 that way.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
Only thing is the vol down button works fine once boot in android. Power button is only weird one and its only acting up depending on the moon phase apparently.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
Ok so I was searching for some links on using active sync to flash but any guide I find also is using HSPL to do the flash which is not apparently present on the device. Would you happen to have any links on performing a flash via active sync that doesn't involve any sort of SPL?

Thanks a bunch
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nemesis1278:
HSPL is what is used to flash any rom that is not an original from tmobile. SPL is the original that would have come onto the phone and locks the phone from installing any roms except tmobile. With the hspl program you need to be able to boot into boot loader. I have tried windows mobile device center which is what is used in windows 7 instead of active sync but it does not connect. I am afraid that you are stuck unless you can get into boot loader somehow. The only way I know is to hold the volume down button as soon as you power the phone on.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jetsetwilly:
I'm sending mine back to HTC
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] waste55:
FINALLY!

All I did was...wait. I took the battery out for a couple hours, and tried again and bam it came up! I tried for like two days before this. I then followed the standard LEOIMG.nbh to the sd card and it restored win mobile and SPL just fine.

I guess it sounds crazy but just take the battery out for a while or overnight perhaps. I really didn't do anything so that's all I have to offer. :o

I think this HD2 has an overheating issue or something because it starts to act up once on after a while (power button...boot problems as described above).
[Vibrant General] jordonlm1:
I recently flashed a custom boot and shut down animation. I am wanting to try a new one. Can I just flash the new boot animation? I am worried the shutdown animation will still be there. Since the new one ia only a boot. What are the steps to return to the stock animations? Thanks
[Vibrant General] kawika:
Depending on the ROM you are using there should be a bootanimation.zip in the /system/media/ simply make a copy and then move any new bootanimation.zip to that location using root explorer.

This is only for the bootanimation you will need to repeat the steps respectively for shutdown animation as well. Good luck!

[Verizon Droid Charge] MtnDewMan:
I like this theme a lot. A couple of things that pop out at me:

1. Text Messages are hard to read. Too blue maybe for everything? Gray blends in too much? Distracting background behind the messages? No difference in bubble colors from incoming texts and outgoing texts. Hard to distinguish which messages are new and already read. Just my opinions here.

2. The icon badge counter that goes on top of the notification icons in the top left of the screen are way oversized. The number inside the badge is good, but the green circle turns out to be a long vertical oval that pretty much covers the entire icon there.

3. In settings, vibration intensity crashes the settings apk.
[Verizon Droid Charge] TheMuffStuff:
1. Thats just the way it is and I cant really change that.

2. I need a picture of what you mean, because I have no idea what you mean.

3. Fixing now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] MtnDewMan:
Here is a screenshot. See the green badge in the upper corner. Instead of a nice circle with a number in it, it is a large oval badge that covers the entire notification icon (supposed to be a tweet caster icon there that should be partially visible).

Couple of months ago, we started the discussion with firmware fix on DVP. With help from active forum members, we opened discussion with Microsoft and Dell and finally got the fix, making DVP best WP7 ever.

Now it is time for Mango update! Yesterday, Toshiba released first Mango ever!

So when can Mango hit DVP? Any ideas?
[Venue Pro General] Thunder_47:
Mango is still in beta testing, dude. All the phones should get it at once, save for the carriers who delay updates for whatever reason.

Also, Microsoft is the only one that can release the update, Toshiba probably just released a phone...atleast thats what the picture looks like.
[Venue Pro General] Necrothug:
To be fair, news outlets did say this phone would be the first Mango phone to market. Considering Mango has been RTM'ed, I would guess we should see it pretty soon.
[Venue Pro General] roytellect:
As Mango goes to carrier and manufactures already. I guess the rest of works should only be bunch of tests. And rumors said lots of people from dell are using Mango DVP already. So I guess not too much problem to see it coming out soon.
[Venue Pro General] Thunder_47:
Its probably safe to say that everyone who owns a Windows Phone and has access to XDA has Mango now. We have the most-locked phone and even we got it.

Even so, Mango still has a "Release Date", and anything after that within a reasonable period of time should be blamed on the carriers for not releasing it. Possibly now since the release has been opened up to more professionals, more criticism can be achieved.
