I literally just got mine in the mail the ups guy just knocked on the door I'm about to open it up now......gotta love working for a third party sprint dealer. Korey has it and loves it. Unfortunately only way to root right now is having the media dock which is 100 bones but I'll let you guys know tomorrow how I actually feel about the phone.

Gonna miss my keyboard but I'm going to keep my epic for dev/testing purposes.....

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
So I just got my new 3500 battery and I gotta say the phone doesn't look that bad the back fits like a glove I was a little worried because the one I got for my Blackberry curve did not and this was made for the optimus 2x the battery was a little tight but it works. So I charged it to 100% and unplugged it at 6am yesterday and I went all the way to 1am so that was 19 hours and it was at 2% and that was at light to heavy use at times I stream Sirius xm and Pandora and at times I did not use it at all while I was working. Today I put my live wallpaper on and see what happens. When I get a few cycles in I am going to start taking the extended bat out and using one of the stock battery's so I can put the thing in the cradle hooked up to the computer and charge the extended with the desktop charger.

The only thing is I noticed that is my phone had the first reboot since the update and only the 3rd one since I bought it and it was lagging a little. Could the battery have something to do with it? Could all these reboot issues be caused by ****ty batteries? Is that why people are reporting doing the update and still having the reboots? I don't think so but my phone really never had any issues and all of a sudden I put a new battery and it just seems weird. I also had a bit of a problem getting a GPS lock. Again I never had any gps problems at all. Anyone who knows what they are talking about want to weigh in?

[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
I've always been curious as to how people number releases like Skype 2.0 or Humble 1.4. Is it just random or do they have some equation regarding how many fixes + how long it took them to release it? I'm assuming it's just totally random but that doesn't seem very professional.

Kind of an odd question I know but it's kind of eating away at me :p

Major versions are the first digit, version updates are the second, and minor tweaks are the third. It goes on and on for build numbers & stuff.

Sent from my Droid Charge running GummyFroyo 1.9.1
[Verizon Droid Charge] lane32x:
The way version numbering has worked traditionally has been that after a major release, the decimal indicates how close you are to the next major release.

So if you released version 1.0 and you fix a couple things which puts you 4% of the way to a 2.0 release, your version should be 1.04

In these forums people use somewhat random numbering, but that's OK. Lol. We get the picture.

Hi guys

I thinking about getting this tablet used. I think i can get it at a fair price. 2000 DKK ~ 400$

Is it still good compared to the competetion?

The last tablet i owned was the Folio 100 which had a horrible OS and even more horrific viewing angles.

So would you guys still consider it a good buy? I have enough experience to root and install a custom OS if you find that to be necessary.

/mmunkn
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Is the price you quoted for wifi only or a 3G/gsm version?

The US wifi only models can be picked up for about $400 new with a great sale and coupon.

But imho the Xoom is a terrific tablet...I think that considering everything it is the best now available. I guess the viewing angles are better with some other tabs, but it has never been an issue for me.
[Xoom General] mmunkn:
It's for the WiFi only, but in Denmark retail priceses are much higher than US or other prices. Our VAT i suprisingly high. A brand new WiFi only tablet would cost me around 900$.

Well i'm glad to hear that. With the Folio if i tipped it 5 degress i wouldnt be able to read anything off the screen ^.^
[Xoom General] okantomi:
No, Xoom is nowhere as bad as that! So that is a very good price. Grab it...then root it and update to HC3.2 using the wonderful Tiamat Rom, and get language support if needed.This tablet really comes alive with rooting/customization. And it's a complex computer but still very tough, inside and out. I love it.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
See if you can get em to knock $50 off. We can get a new one for about 400 USD.
[Xoom General] laxwillsch:
That's a great price considering your location. This tablet is totally worth it still. Best on the market for what I need. If I could get any other it would probably be the TF or the galaxy tab but I don't think that I could live without the SD card slot.

[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Yeah, the Rocketfish case is good - I have one.

Now if I could find a source for a second (and/or third!) battery.... that and an external charger for the spare batteries.....

So far, no dice on those...
[Motorola Triumph] idbl_fanatic:
Here is the one I bought: http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Hard-Cove...598760?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b42520a8

Fits perfect, and even has the hole on the back for the mic, vol buttons, and power button
[Motorola Triumph] godbilla:
I just picked up the Rocketfish case from best buy.. I know the price is pretty steep @ 20.99, but this is really a nice case. It's very sturdy and has a nice feel to it. It's much nicer than one of the cheap silicone or snap on cases from amazon or ebay. Those other cases will break on the first drop (my experiences from the snap on cases) or just tear up and get stuck in your pocket (silicone cases). This case feels very sturdy and is not rubbery feeling at all, and doesn't add much if any bulk. And best of all it doesn't get stuck in my pocket! I think this case will be a good alternative until maybe an otterbox or something similar comes out. I really wouldn't waste your time with those cheap cases, just get this one or wait so you don't waste your money.

[Streak 5 General] brooon:
Hey folks!

I´m one of the most enthusiastic Streak user within us (coming from an HD2 :)) and I´m loving my new phone...

BUT: As all of you surely know, the camera is a not-so-funny-joke compared to phones like the HD2. So after many months where nobody has talked about this, my question is: What are your solutions/workaraounds for better pictures?

I´ve just tried the obvious: camera360 & MagicHour. But no, it doesn´t make it much better.

Last but not least: Is there some hope e.g. for getting some better drivers? Hope dies last, I´m praying for some very kind devs with similar intentions :) :)
[Streak 5 General] Final5k:
Hmmm everyone knows the Streak's camera is no great and I think this has to do with the camera module itself. Look at HTC's camera, they mostly suck especially in low light conditions and in video recording at night - till now even if there is a great amount of developpers working on htc phones, no one has successfully modded them. And to tell you the truth, considering that the Streak is not that popular for modders, chances are really really weak that someone will work on it.

I think Sony Ericsson X10/Arc/N8/Infuse/Mytouch4G Slide are among the best camera phone if I'm not mistaken.
[Streak 5 General] sajibcy:
i also agree. sony ericsson and nokia always best in camera. i also own a streak 5. but my old nokia 6600 slide is 10times better quality photo thn streak though its only 3.2 MP.
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I find the Streak's camera is perfect for quick shots, but prefer using my three-year old digital camera since its CCD sensor is larger than the one in the Streak.
[Streak 5 General] Final5k:
With Camera360, the photos come out with a quality more pleasing to the eyes than the stock camera. It's ok to take photos if you are not picky about quality but don't expect jaw-dropping photos!

My fav camera phone goes definitely to the Nokia N8 and Sony Satio/X10 - they maybe a bit old, but when you take photos or videos, you can show them to everyone since the quality is high above than most smartphones!
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
I use a proper camera if I want to take proper photographs, the Streak is handy for the odd snapshot but it's a phone/tablet device, not a camera.
[Streak 5 General] pawdog:
Yeah, my solution to poor phone cameras is to not use them. If the Streak didn't have a camera I wouldn't miss it.

the second step is with the device in recovery mode and the screen shows a mobile picture with this sign " ! " in red color ..

any help guys
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stemnin:
Just to make sure, you have HTC Sync 2.0.33, correct?

At the red !, try vol up + power (should bring you to custom recovery screen, every time I reboot to recovery I need to do that). Select wipe/factory reset, then go to flash zip from sd and rootedupdate.zip. (assuming file name)
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeroNEX:

Make sure you have HTC Sync version 2.0.33 installed and any previous versions of HTC Sync are un-installed.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pihkal:
Hi,

i've had the same problems when i tried to root my Legend,tried everything but nothing worked,i also was using Win 7 x64.

I eventually solved it,here's what i did:

-Install VMware or Virtual Box

-Create a new virtual machine and install Win XP x32 on it.

-Install the correct HTC Sync in the VM.

-Repeat the hack4legend steps in VM. (Make sure your phone is connected to the XP VM and not the real Win 7 machine)

This worked for me.

It requires some "work" but gets the job done.

Good luck!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigspc:
Hi,

While on holiday I put my Desire HD on charge over night (was working fine at that point), but when trying to turn it on the next morning it just vibrated 7 times and that was it - the phone would do nothing. The phone doesn't respond to the hard reset process described on the HTC website and no lights come on at any point (not even when connected to the charger).

The only time the phone does anything, is when you eject the battery and re-insert it. At the point where the battery touches the contacts inside the phone, it vibrates 7 times again and nothing more. The phone has not been modified in any way and uses the original OS from HTC. All the phone does is vibrate 7 times when inserting the battery. Otherwise it's completely dead.

This would, I presume, normally be a simple warranty case (8 month old phone). However, in my desperation to reset/fix the phone, I tried pressing what I thought was a reset button underneath the SIM & memory card cover (with the tip of a pen). Instead of the 'click' that I expected though, it pierced what turned out to be a small black sticker - an action which HTC says has invalidated the warranty on my phone. They have now created a return reference for me, but I'm likely to be hit with a big bill for repair if/when I send the phone in.

I understand that confusing a sticker for a button is a stupid thing to do, but I can't change what I did and I genuinely thought that I was pressing a button on the back of the phone.

Is there any possible solution without having to send the phone in to HTC?

Thank you,

Craig.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shidapu:
Can you post a pic of the black sticker you accidently clicked.. Also any other "void stick" there is :P

I'd like to know if it is obvious that you tried to open the phone up or not..

To me, if you cannot get into Recovery nor Bootloader, your pretty much screwed, try pulling battery out, insert it back in, hold the Volume down button, and while holding press Power button?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigspc:
I'll have access to a Digital SLR tonight and will post a photo tonight. Looking at the phone though, it is clearly visible that it has not been touched with anything other than the tip of a pen. There is another small sticker that I found in the battery compartment - this is completely in tact.

I don't think anyone looking at the phone would doubt that the one sticker was pierced with the tip of a pen, but unfortunately that doesn't seem to make any difference. The guy I spoke to from HTC was friendly and polite, but he insisted that it wouldn't make any difference - I broke the rules and that's it.

I suppose the only reason that I'm disappointed is that I've now had four HTC smartphones and I've never requested warranty support before. Oh well... :-(

Thanks for the links you provided. Lots of useful info, but unfortunately I can't find any solution - the phone is clearly dead.

Thanks,

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze599:
Sending it I believe is the only way the phone will get fixed. DO include a note explaining what you did but I dont know how useful it will be. You never know though. As the other one is still intact they may believe you and do it for free.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigspc:
Yes, if you send the phone in for repair, you will lose everything stored on the device that you haven't backed up. I think this will be the case even if they don't replace the motherboard. Any apps that you previously bought through Android Market can be restored though - you don't have to buy them again.

Craig.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigspc:
Hmm.. That's bad news... Trying to read between the lines a bit - Are they saying that they won't replace the motherboard because you have flashed the phone, or because they suspect that flashing the phone played a direct role in the failure?

If the motherboard has died surely they'd replace it? Then again, if the motherboard had died completely - how would they know that the phone had been flashed in the first place?

When exactly did the problem start for you?
