[Motorola Droid X2] triton302:
So... I went down to the local Costco where I bought my Charge and they have a live X2 to play around with. After a fresh reboot, I tested it out and the screen really isn't as bad as I thought. Everything (except Blur of course) was very quick and smooth, voice calls sounded clear. I did a SpeedTest run, only one of those tests resulted in less than 1 mb/sec download, and the last one jumped up to 2.4 mb/sec download with 750k upload speed, pretty damn good for a 3G phone. I put the Charge in 3G only and it couldn't come close.

So needless to say, the Charge will be going back sometime this week and exchanged for the X2. The guy at the Wireless kiosk gave me a weird look when I said I was going to come back and get the X2 instead. I told him "I have my reasons" and smiled. :)

Awesome, welcome aboard. The more brains the merrier. :)

Odd when I log into my account those data plans are not available. Anyway what a rip off, $30 for 2gig a month. At&t data plans are more reasonable.
[Motorola Droid X2] triton302:
Made it official today... returned the Charge and picked up my new Droid X2, with $100 back in my pocket as I was refunded the difference in price. So far so good, screen takes some getting used to but I'm glad to be back to a screen with more natural colors rather than the cartoonish AMOLED colors. Very well built just like the original X I had, miss the camera button though. Updated to Gingerbread and it's running just fine, call quality is much better than the Charge.

Can't wait to get cracking on the modding!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marzvinet:
I've been playing with the thought root or not root, but i'll need to know this few things before taking the final decision.

If i root 2.3.3, will i then still be able to get 2.3.4 and or 4.0 when it comes out, if se will support 4.0.

what does the 4.0.a features have that the 3.0.1.a doesn't have? and what is the difference.

And how easy 10/10 is it to update a rooted phone.

Thats all, i wanna know.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BluechipJ:
Search is your friend, but anyways...

Unless you have an unlocked/unlockable bootloader, you cannot root v2.3.3 directly.

Rooting doesn't affect updates as long as you don't remove any system files/apps.

e.g. Updating a rooted Rogers phone:

There's practically no risk since you can always restore the phone to stock using the FlashTool or PC Companion.

Okay, danke. Youve got your thanks up.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marzvinet:
But what about, if i just want to uninstall bloatware can i then just like unlock the bootloader?

Does some body knows how you can make goggle picture to become the default contact picture, even if sync of Facebook contacts is on?
[HTC Sensation] zen8:
How long does it take to root and load a custom rom(on average)? It would be my first time rooting so I would take it slow, but will I need an hour, a couple of hours?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
Couple,just to be sure. It took me 15 minutes to s-off and root but I've done it before Haha
[HTC Sensation] 675 Trip:
Plan on a couple of hours, especially the first time because after you wait the required 10-15 min to let the phone rebuild all the caches, then restore your user apps through titanium, you have to go back in and reconfigure your system settings and preferences (gmail accounts, ringers, etc) restore your sms messages. kick yourself for not writing down which settings you had that you liked. reconfigure all your widgets, etc.

My checklist for installing a new rom goes something like this:

ADB screenshots of home screens.

Backup user apps with TI (I originally backed up everything, but ended up with duplicates and problems when restoring system apps by accident)

SMS backup

LauncherPro backup.

superwipe

install rom

boot

wait 15 min

install mods

boot

restore ti backup

restore sms

restore launcherpro

configure widgets

reboot

login to wifi (skipped during original config so don't accidentally get wrong account linked to phone - one rom, it asked me to log in, I thought it was asking for second account, but it was asking for first account again. that's why I wait until everything is installed before accessing gmail - less complicated if you only have one email account)

launch gmail - enter primary account

access market - make sure primary account registered on phone.

launch gmail and set up other 5 gmail accounts

launch voice and login to voice account

launch g+ and login to g+ account

kick myself for not remembering to find a way to backup call log

acknowledge hundreds of linked contacts.

restore ringers

reconfigure timeriffic

pair bluetooth devices - headsets, speakerphone, headphones
[G1 Apps and Games] netdependent:
Hi,

I'd like on my G1 (first CM5/6/4.2, now ezGingerbread) to show not only my google contacts but also the SIM-contacts, like the HTC-Contacts App on my DesireZ does.

I would NOT like to copy them, b/c the SIM is sometimes used in a dumbphone & I don't wanna update the numbers on two+X devices.

I googled a bit & found dialer one, but I do not see an option there to display SIM contacts along with the others. Would be glad for any pointers!

Hi everyone, this is my first post here :)

I dont have the X8 yet but I will buy it this week and I been reading the posts here for some time now, preparing me for the rooting, baseband change and rom installation.

GingerDX seems to be the one I want to install, but my question is:

How do I reinstall google maps?

I do like that app and I dont want to loose it.

From were I am (Uruguay) it is not supported so it wont be on the market.

Thank you for your responses!

[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
lol!!

:D I know, I know, thats not the way to ask for anything.. I thought it was funny.

But for reals.. I see all these beautiful clocks that mimic the HTC look, but why on earth do none of them actually "FLIP"?

Like, this is the main reason I actually like that clock. Is it possible? Or is it too heavy on the resources?

This is the question! :)
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
BTW, I searched for about an hour this morning.. before people go start telling me to search.. Maybe I am using the wrong terms in my search.. Dont know, but if someone could help me, that would be great.

1. Thread title fail.

2. If you want HTC Sense clock, buy HTC device or

3. Install ported HTC Sense ROM, if not available

4. port rom by yourself.

See you when I come out of my cave. THanks.
[Android Themes] jmotyka:
ROFLMAO i thought the thread title was hilarious, and i new some prick wouldnt get the sarcasm in the title and would post Some Noobish post to make it seem like hes not such a noob, and we both know he is ;). Anywho i guess it there is a simple answer to your question. There really isnt an exact replica of the animated flip clock.
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
All I want is the little numbers to do backflips and sh!t... Im getting my head bitten off over it.

LOL =] Thanks for getting my sarcasm.
[Android Themes] grooltor:
You can take a look at MIUI, clocks do flip :) And it's a nice rom in general :D
[Android Themes] Amadeus01:
I don't get it, people buy a phone just to watch a clock.

guilty as sin ;)

I got the LP Classic Sense.

Looks good enought. ( for me ).

miui

miui for the win it has flip clocks but they are 12 hour clocks but they have mods under miui us
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
Thanks guys... Wish MiUi was a go, but it's not available for the Atrix :(
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
WTF.. I need to learn some coding I guess..

Someone out there has to know of an app that probably got pulled because it copied HTC's look... Isnt there anything that actually flips?

Please!! Im flippin flamin!! LOL
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
Sorry, I know there are flip clocks out there... but I am looking for one with a decent animation basically.
[Android Themes] maxjk:
MIUI has a nice flip clock

Go Launcher Ex also has a flip clock, not yet quite as nice looking, but I believe themeing is possible, so I guess you could make one or persuade someone to make one nicer
[Android Themes] obaidr:
since the Atrix does have a locked bootloader it is not possible to port MIUI to it since it is 2.3.5 now. Anyways its is not easy to animate the flipping animation because you need a good designer and quite some coding skills. MIUI and HTC are the only ones who has the manpower to realize such stuff.

You can hire a good coder and programmer and let them make one and sell with profit ;)
[Android Themes] ssmr2t:
My Atrix has an unlocked bootloader.

I just want a nice flipping clock!! Is it not possible to convert the existing one for MiUi over to an APK form?

Why oh Why do I have to subject myself to High Tech companies UI just for a flipping clock? This is the question of all time.

LOL Thanks anyways.
[Android Themes] Reddog80p:
Fancy Widget Pro - H7C Clock skin...Does not flip but looks pretty much exactly like the sense clock.
[Android Themes] bra1nDeaD:
This widget does flip and works on any launcher. It currently doesn't have any weather but this will come in a future update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
me: focus on 7720

I have 31 apps in app list on phone but it's using the alpha sort headers. What gives? Is it including the number of games to determine when to use the alpha sort function? Is there some way to turn it off?
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
Oops. I misread your post. I have no idea why the jump list would be visible with only 31 apps. I wouldn't expect it to include games, but who knows?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
31? Lucky you.

I need to have 45 apps in order to get that jump list.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PayAndDie:
+1 you need to have 45 apps ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
Well, I only have 31 listed and I have a jump list...

So my 31 apps plus the 17 alpha placeholders makes my list 48 items long. It's pretty annoying as it's ugly and inefficient.

I have 30 games installed and I have considered uninstalling some of them to see if that collapses the jump list but I don't want to lose settings and saves...
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
31 games? or 31 apps? Because those are both stored in 2 different places.

If you are talking about games, I didn't even know that the games hub could show the jumplist at all. But then again, I've never installed that many games to find out.

The app list is only supposed to trigger the jumplist at 45. So, your phone is probably bugged.
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
31 apps. 30 games. App list has jump list. Games hub is normal. Either the games + apps is counted to trigger the jump list, or there is an error somewhere. I fear I'll have to hard reset and restore to pre mango and update again...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
45 apps here means, you need to have total 45 icons appear the same time on the app list to get that jump list.
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
I know that we are only supposed to see the jump list once we have 45 icons in the app list, but what I am saying is that I only have 31 icons in my app list AND I do have the jump list. It's ugly and I don't want it. I am trying to figure out WHY on my phone the jump list is activated.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
Oh well, I don't know my friend. I think jump list. Is Is really useful, I don't have to scroll down all the way to open the setting.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kvizz:
I have 43 APPS, and it's showing the jumplist.

Weird.

Just deleted 3 apps, down to 40 and I still have the sort list.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
JAJA WOW!!! is somebody really complaining about this? people wanted an easier way to keep track of apps installed in the app list but now that it's here there's complaints? revert back to NoDo if u don't want it. problem solved.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I'm not sure how many apps you need to have, but it is indeed based on the # of apps. I upgrading to Mango & had the jumplist, uninstalled all homebrew apps that no longer worked & the jumplist disappeared.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
And i am started to think that each device has its own number of apps on apps list to get that jump list.

Focus is much smaller than HD7... So the Jumplist will appear sooner ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I doubt it. They all run the same resolution (WVGA/480x800), plus what you are running is a generic Mango RTM or Beta, not the official. So, there's no OEM/Device specific code yet. This may be the case for the Retail though, who knows if OEM's have control over that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
I don't think the OEM had a chance to touch the 7720 before Microsoft release it.

I mean that is what Microsoft did with each ROMs for each Devices before they rolled it out for their OEM.

Smaller screen may result in different configuration, who know?
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
No, I mean after the RTM. RTM means Release to Manufactorer. This is when OEM's start testing & tweaking it & possibly updating their device specific drivers. As for having different # of apps for jumplist depending on device, that depends if MS gave OEM's a registry to tweak to control this setting, it's possible. I don't see it being done though because of a smaller screen as all device have the same resolution & therefore the same amount of content shows up onscreen, no matter it's physical size. It just looks bigger on a larger screen. This may be the case for the Tango Chassis 2 device from what I remember will be more like a BB/HTC Status in design with a smaller screen & keyboard on the front.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
Oh okay, i get your point.

7720 is RTM, but not a final build. I am looking forward for a new Firmware from HTC for Schubert, or a completely good Eternity.

Are you gonna get a Mango Device? or you will stay with Schubert?
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
For now I'll stick with my HD7. I got it for $30 with 2 yrs upgrade, so no upgrade for me, plus I'm unemployed atm. I really want more info on this eternity though. If it's worth it, I'll probably get one anyway once I find a job & if it is indeed on T-Mobile USA.

What's I really like is a Mango HD7 hardware with slide out keyboard like the 7 Pro, bigger battery & Super AMOLED Plus screen & better camera lens. I hate how they make you choice between 4.3" screen & hardware keyboard. Plus MS needs a landscape mode for the start screen.

EDIT: Oh, & better speaker that actually have decent base.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
They are starting develop the 4.5 inch SAMOLED i think. I read that article somewhere.

Eternity with SLCD is good enough for me. Probably buys some new jeans with bigger front pockets sometime...:rolleyes:

After Leo and Schubert, i know i can't stand anything smaller than 4.0 inch on my hand.... :p

T-Mobile is getting through AT&T... not soon... so let's hope.

if not, i will get the International Version then.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Agree, why I wish they'd make a decent 4"+ with slide out hardware keyboard. Don't like the way dVP did it. I prefer landscape, bigger keyboard. I remember something about the 4.5 SAMOLED, but it's Samsung, I prefer HTC & it has to be a SAMOLED+ as the SAMOLED uses rgbg pixels & has a lower effective resolution. SAMOLED+ fixes this.

And I hope that AT&T merger fails. I don't want AT&T. I'll stick to official T-Mobile cells though because of 3G unless I can find one on another network that uses the same T-Mobile Bands.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
The chances of getting an HTC with SAMOLED+ (or even SAMOLED) are slim to none.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Yeah I know, but I can dream can't I? lol. I was thinking about just buying a Samsung 4.3" screen & hacking my HD7 to use it at one point. They use the same connector to the PCB board from what I can see in pictures, but the connector is in a different place. I'd need to make some kind of extension adapter.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eric12341:
problem with that is doing that will add quite a bit of bulk to the device and if any such device has the slightest amount of bulk that's greater than the iPhone u know it will get downranked big time in the tech blogs. and HTC will be providing beats audio so im sure they can add more bass to the speakers tho not sure why one would want bass on a monaural speaker, that's what headphones and sound systems are for.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lauticol:
I have the RTM, I began to install apps and when the jumplist appeared, I didn't like it, so I started deleting apps.. I just kept 1 app and the jumplist was still there! I think it's If you have it, you have it forever, or something like that! :/
[Windows Phone 7 General] random_n:
This bugged me pretty quickly after I tripped the limit (I don't have enough apps to justify the jumplist) so I went registry hunting.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Start

DWORD: GroupingThreshold

Change it to something larger. Mine was somehow set to 0 or 1 (can't remember which offhand). Turned it up to 45 (0x0000002D), did a soft reset/power cycle, and all was well. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
Hmmm. I wish I had access to the registry now. Having this very issue. Sigh.
[Windows Phone 7 General] swiftprods:
I know this thread is a little old but I just wanted to show my gratitude by saying thanks to random-n for the bit of enough.
