HTC

I have a feeling Motorola Mobility might end up with it (since Google owns them now and all) I choose HTC because they have publicly stated they are committed to allowing their phones to be unlocked, and they have the default Android overlay UI I like the most. I know HTC has a screwy unlock process (and I am a Revolutionary user myself) but at least HTC has spoken to the issue in a good way.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbrodus:
I am using one of the CM7 nightlies, nightly 132 i think. At some point i noticed that a custom ringtone I had created was ringing the phone instead of the CM7 default ringtone. I changed the ringtone to one of the other standard CM7 ringtones. The next time my phone rang it was still a custom ringtone. I went into file manager and changed file suffix so that the file would no longer be seen and hoping the phone would then default to the ringtone I had chosen. Instead the phone only vibrates now. Any way I can force the phone to see the default ringtones.

Like I said before, I'm using CM7 nightly, I think 132 with Tiamet 4.0.x kernel.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robd007:
i have had the same exact problem since i flashed CM7.1.0 RC1, tried the same thing (deleting the song) and now the phone only vibrates, as well. Just wanted to state your not the only one. Would really like a solution for this, i've tried using the winamp 'set as ringtone' setting without luck, as well....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbrodus:
I didn't solve the root cause of this issue, but to get the ringtone i wanted I copied the ringtone file from the 'ringtones' folder to the 'music' or 'audio' folder where the ringtone i didn't want to ring the phone was stored. I'd already changed the suffix of the custom ringtone so that it can't inadvertently be selected by the phone.

It works, but i still don't know why the phone isn't looking in the correct folder for the ringtones.

I get ASSERT FAILED: GETPROP("RO.BOOTLOADER") == P7100BUKB7.

or

getprop("ro.bootloader")=="P7100BUKB7"||getprop("r o.bootloader")=="P7100BUKC8" depending on the ROM

When attempting to flash stock ROM using CWM 4.0.0.4.

What does this mean?

Digging around I noticed that 'assert(getprop("ro.bootloader") == "P7100BUKB7" || getprop("ro.bootloader")' is the first line in 'updater-script' in the ROMs zip packages that fail to install.

The only ROM that I have that does install. the starburst ROM, doesn't have a line referring to bootloader.

What does 'getprop("ro.bootloader")=="P7100BUKB7"||getprop("r o.bootloader")=="P7100BUKC8"' do in this script.

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
The ROM is checking what bootloader your device has for compatibility, and deciding it doesn't like what it sees.

Which Tab variant do you have? It looks like you're trying to flash ROMs meant for the 10.1v (P7100) on something else (most likely P7500 or P7510 - the non-v 10.1 variants)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlowens44:
I think you're right. I have GT-P7510.....

I guess I need to find the correct stock ROM.

Thank you for your response!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
Make sure to stick in the 10.1 and not 10.1v dev forums. :)
[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
As the title says, I get considerably more lag in N64iod and other emulators when I am running webtop. Without running webtop, the emulators play fine. However, I cannot play emulators on a tv without webtop enabled!!!!

Here is my gameplay of starfox when I run the mobile view over webtop through the webtop hack over HDMI.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bbUbFSPOY0

It's periodically laggy. I think it might have to do with the RAM, or lack of because of webtop running in the background. The games play great when running just on the phone, but over webtop, lag becomes noticable.

I have the Honeycomb 2.0 RIX ROM with the HDMI webtop hack built in with the 1.1 GHz Overclock kernel built in.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? Maybe HDMI mirroring?
[Atrix 4G General] Jotokun:
Its not just the extra ram, its also the processing power needed to run the webtop environment. HDMI Mirroring sans webtop would improve performance. There'll probably still be slight hit, but it wont be as bad as webtop is.
[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
Can someone send me the link to HDMI mirroring for the atrix, preferably landscape supported? If I install that, will webtop be disabled for good?
[Atrix 4G General] eurosport360:
Anyone????

No landscape. There is a webtop hack.

Brings Android 2.3.4, breaks any root exploits out there, new availability to unlock bootloader (although one person who tried having problems trying to flash custom recovery with unlock, also unlock doesn't give S-OFF), new radio, new pri, and a whole lot more. I suggest not taking the OTA and doing the revolutionary.io S-OFF method and then flashing one of the new 2.3.4 rooted ROMs in the Development section.

[HD2 General] martijnloeffen:
Well!!!

I'm a HD2 user from November 2009 which means it's almost 2 years old.:(

For a phone that's quit old. Now I'm running Mango on it and I also had many android versions running on it. I really love this device.

Now comes my problem!!:rolleyes:

I want to buy a new phone but I want the same phone which can run many OS.

Should I wait until the Eternity or will there be another "über"-Phone (über = German for Gorgeous/great/Master/better then ever/beyond everything else)?

I think you all know what I mean. The HD2 is just great and I want something similar again.

What do you think???

Regards, Martijn
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
I suggest waiting a few more months (or years?) for the HTC Holiday .. it seems to be the device of its decade ;)
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
i have my hd2 also since it was released and i think that i will wait until the quadcore chips come to phones. i can live with the hd2 at the moment and i think buying a dualcore device now isn't worth it when quadcores are announced for the mid of next year. maybe i'll buy a cheap used phone inbetween to play with but not a new high end device.
[HD2 General] RCOO:
LMAO.

I just bought an HD2. And for the same reason you don't want to leave it.

I want to experience everything I can. You can't do that with any phone.
[HD2 General] 3xp3rt:
Lucky me than, im going to buy HD2 tomorrow:)
[HD2 General] GeoMil:
There is no real upgrade in my opinion. The only signifcant upgrade I reckon is in battery life, front cam, a slighty better rear cam and perhaps screen quality.

I have had; Desire, Desire HD, Legend and now Nexus S. They are all so similar to HD2 it feels cool for the first day and then you realize there was really no point in upgrading.

Sansung GS II is the biggest upgrade IMO, but then you are stuck on a stock ROM
[HD2 General] Serious_Beans:
If you're going to think like that then might as well wait for the 8 core phones instead of buying a quad core phone.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
Well but they are Not manufactured yet. The kal el is done and working. And if you Upgrade and some month later there is such better Hardware available you'll also get angry. The difference between our hd2 and a dual core device is Not that big. At the Moment the hd2 is still pretty up to date. I know very well that waiting for the next good thing to come out would never end when we Talk about smartphones or Computers. There is just no really big fish out at the Moment like the hd2 was in 2009. So i for myself will wait for quadcores and 720p Displays because this will be worth the Upgrade from the hd2.
[HD2 General] lantern20:
Unfortunately, I think the HD2 was unique with all the possibilities and hacking and the great developers coming together at one time. I've been watching and waiting for the next great phone, but I think that when the HD2 finally fades away, there won't be another phone with the same abilities because of the lack of developers focused on it. I just don't know what I'll do, I guess I'll actually have to decide on an Android or WP7 phone (but I really really like being able to jump between the two with just a reboot)!
[HD2 General] Duflet:
If you can't wait there's been a bit of buzz around the Xiaomi M1 phone - supposedly able to run multiple OS's.

Feel free to shoot me down in flames if I've mis-interpreted the description of it.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
It cannot run multiple OS's, but it is a very awesome looking phone. It is basically an Android modder's dream if the development is there, but only Android. It won't ever run WM or WP
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
true. this could really be a cheap option to get a phone were some great developement could go on. we'll see how good it really will be. this price is pretty cheap for a phone with such hardware. hope it won't be cheap china crap.

but somehow i'm missing the flash and front facing cam.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
It's using a 1.5 ghz snapdragon/adreno with 1GB ram SoC so you know the raw specs are freaking amazing.

What I want to see is how good the screen is and how good the code is. They are making a bad-ass phone with a stock-custom ROM (if that makes sense), it would be like HTC releasing a phone running stock CM7 on it or something.

If there is custom ROM support for this thing like CM7 and stuff I might get it.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
i know the phone thanks. but build quality has to be good.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
yeah hopefully they don't use crap plastic like samsung.
[HD2 General] jcsy:
even at the size and weight, with those kind of specs

i will definitely be getting 1 just for the heck of testing and flashing

with CM7, hell yeah definitely my go to phone
[HD2 General] martijnloeffen:
That phone looks like the first iPhone.

Anyway I'm very happy with my HD2.

by the way is this just a nice render or nearby future.

Well i think there is not one out there that can replace the HD2. Why change a winner with a posible expencive new one. If your phone will break, it wil only cost you 150-200 Euro to replace.

[HD2 General] DPMAce:
I'm going to do the same thing and wait. Unless you're a serious phone gamer, or have alot of money to spend, then it's always better to wait. Quad core phones are just around the corner. And 8 core phones are just around 2 corners lol.

And screen size is getting bigger and bigger. One day we won't need tablets imo.
[HD2 General] jcsy:
Its not about the power or processing or weight.

Its the options we have and the amount of active development we had from bugs, kernels, GPS, radios, operating systems and registry what not. Splash screen etc.

I would get another HD 2, if it was still sold and probably only get the xiaomi m1 after enough development was made on it
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
Well you‘re right but the hd2 is almost 2 years old now and devs also move to better hardware. Lot‘s of them already left.

1930 mah battery charge cycles,

7 hours of insane hot temperature ( i think it was 65C)

5 hours of insane cold temperature (i think it was -40C)

and many many more I just cant remember

it was all a show and test that this hardware issnt made of cheap plastic that you find out there
[HD2 General] martijnloeffen:
That's exactly the problem....What will be the next HD2. Will there be such a phone where several different OS run on.

Where do the devs left to?? We should buy those phones!
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
i think there won't be one because when the hd2 came out it was just the only phone with such good hardware. now there are a lot of phones which have good hardware and the devs go to different phones.

but i really think that developement on the xiaou m1 could be great. it will be up to date, lot cheaper than other phones and comes pre loaded with an open bootloader and a custom rom. but we'll see when it's released.
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
Engadget writes that the miui phone will support dual partition to be able to use two miui builds at the same time. Kind of a dual boot feature. This would really be great and maybe the devs could give us dualboot of two different os, both from nand.

[HD2 General] Ouzo:
As has been pointed out, I'm not sure when and if another device will gain such a following. For me it's the devs here at XDA that have made using HTC devices so compelling and enjoyable (or, in some cases, simply made them useable at all - Elf and Raphael, I'm looking at you ; ) Without dev support and with so many manufacturers churning out bug laden firmware, owning a smartphone can just turn into a royal pain in the ass.

Again, as has been said, I don't think there's a device out there at the moment that is a clear winner. It would be great to have a better camera, more internal storage and a screen I could actually use outside, but for me the whole package has to be a LOT better to jump ship.

To be honest, I can't even make up my mind about which OS I want on my phone. For my usage patterns, at least Windows Mobile 6.5 allows me to do all the basics I need, not to mention customize the hell out of the way it looks thanks to the community. I don't seem to be able to gain the extra functionality I'm interested in on other OS's without losing some of the basics that I've had at my disposal for several years already. I don't want to buy a phone then have to buy extra software just to be able to match some of what my HD2 could do out of the box (e.g Excel). And then there's TomTom....

My other concern is that in addition to poorly optimised software causing problems, the likes of HTC are heading back to their old ways, selling devices with hardware that just isn't up to running the OS and GUI out of the box. My Elf and Raphael were good examples of this. I have a feeling that while the quad cores sound fantastic, if manufacturers raise screen resolutions too high we're still going to have handsets that stutter and slow down all the time because the SoC and RAM size/speed aren't sufficient (or at least need charging five times a day ; ) I really hope I'm wrong about this of course.

I wonder if something like the Galaxy S2 actually represents a hardware sweetspot at the moment given the ratio of screen resolution to SoC performance and RAM size?

Lol, it's a random and small point, but at least it looks like you can edit/delete a single appointment of a recurring series on the S2 which you can't do on any of HTC's android phones... Without the devs here at XDA and the awesome HD2, I wouldn't have known about that little annoyance until I'd splashed out on a new device.
[HD2 General] sstfn:
I have the same problems. I want a new look but the functions of the HD2.

But function goes above looks so I still have my HD2.
[HD2 General] thebest1:
There will never be a smartphone with multiples OS and hacks like the HD2, but we just got to move on from wm6.5. I have been looking at this phone http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-titan/ because it has almost the same specs as the HD2 except with a little bit less RAM. What do you guys thinks about the HTC TITAN?
[HD2 General] rauschkugl:
Well, it is almost two years now since the hd2 came out and now you want to buy a fullprice phone with the same hardware our old hd2 has? I would not do it. Wp is running as good as on the titan when you forget the touchscreen driver issue for a moment. I would not pay $850 for this phone just because of a bigger display and on windows phones there will never be such a developement like on the hd2.

Sent from my HTC HD2
[HD2 General] Ruudfood:
I'm with you all on this. There's no phone out there that is worth upgrading to from the HD2. You have a choice of OSes, hardware that can keep up and a community that will support it for at least another 18-24 months.

I "upgraded" to a Dell Streak for the screen size and it was awful (loved the 5" screen though). So bad, in fact, that I went back to my HD2 running Gingerbread and Sense 3. Sure, it's not perfect with the graphical glitches and the camcorder issue but I can live with it more than I can with the other issues the Dell had.

What would be worth an upgrade for me? A dual-core device with more RAM, an 8mp camera (with Xenon flash), higher res display, at least 16GB storage and a screen no smaller than 4.3". Oh and Sense of course. Not sure there's a device out there that matches my requirements so I'll wait as long as it takes.

The other thing worth remembering is that manufacturers are no longer making killer devices such as the HD2 or the Nokia N95. Well there may still be one at some point in the future but they'll be rarer than chicken's teeth!
[HD2 General] dazza9075:
No point getting more than a 5 mp ccd when the optics are so bad, we need a decent lens before thinking of a bigger ccd. Id also suggest a improved battery, personally I think we are nearing a point where hardware outshines software, take the hd2 as an example, it can still run almost anything many many years after its launch.
[HD2 General] Ouzo:
Not sure about the rest of the world, but here in the UK I think all Windows Phone 7 devices have been over priced. It's nice to play around with WP7, but I just couldn't bring myself to make it my day to day OS due to the things that are still missing vs Windows 6.5. I know it's slick and smooth but I think releasing an OS without some of the core features that their last OS had was kinda silly on Microsoft's part - unless of course they sold them for 60% of the cost of comparable Android/iPhone devices ; ) I really really want to like WP7, but it's just not doing it for me at the moment.

If I've understood correctly, at least the Titan has a faster CPU, some decent on board storage and mahoooosive screen : ) I've recently taken to lying in bed watching Big Bang Theory and other shows on my Leo, streaming the audio to a uPlay bluetooth adaptor connected to a micro hi-fi, so the bigger screen would be a bonus and add to the 'small cinema' experience (not sure about the lower pixel density though).
[HD2 General] Ouzo:
Couldn't agree more with regard to optics and sensor size. No idea why manufacturers are so obsessed with the number of mega pixels. It's a bit like motorcycle manufacturers and their weight or engine power/rev figures. Never forget getting a Suzuki TL1000 on a dyno only to find out that while the rev counter claimed it was hitting 10k rpm it was actually only reaching 8.5k. Hmmm. Sorry, massively off topic.
