I think HTC makes decent quality phones, but I don't like the "qHD" screen aspect ratio (WAY to narrow when used in portrait direction).... IMO
[Streak 5 General] rvbarton:
The atrix has official gingerbreak on it. I"m not sure what security protocols are being followed, but everytime I tried to connect via my Streak, I was given the message "Your hardware does not meet the requirements" or " Unable to something or other regarding the security requirements set forth by my network administrator".
[Streak 5 General] rvbarton:
I love the windows mobile 7 OS! I used my streak 5" for a personal phone, and used a Dell Venue Pro as my work phone and it's quite an amazing phone. IT's very simple... Much more so than an iPhone, but it's the perfect OS for non-techie types... (i.e. my mom, my grandmother, my wife...)

samsung galaxy q

i've heard rumors about a possible "samsung galaxy q" with a 5,3 inches super amoled screen. it should be presented at the IFA in the next few days. if the hardware of this future phone is powerful, it would be a great choice for me

Here it is, and the specs are exactly what every Streak owner dreams of.

1280x800 Super AMOLED, 1.4Ghz dual core, 2500mAh battery, weighs 40g less than the streak, etc.

I'm almost positive that I would opt for that Samsung Note. It looks awesome. If we were talking about what I would grab in the AT&T store right now I would probably grab a Samsung Infuse 4G only because of the screen size but that is really it.
[Streak 5 General] Azamatka:
Yes, Samsung 5.3 inch, no matter what the name will be :) The good thing is that it looks to be within same dimensions the Streak is in due to thinner bezel...

I just saw a video demo of the Samsung Note on U-Tube..... Looks fantastic with plenty of power (2500 mAH? battery)..... Only definite deal-breaker for me would be if it as chintzy-made as Samsung's previous phones and/or released on aTnT only (if a miracle happens and the DeathStar does not take over my beloved T-Mobile)...... We can always hope, right?

[Streak 5 General] samstables:
I saw this thread a few days ago and had no reply as I can't see myself going to a smaller screen after the Streak although I'm aching for a physical keyboard and have been disappointed with all contenders so far. But then along come Sammy and the Note and I think it's pen might be the swaying point (aside from its other great specs).

Luckily my contract isn't up for a while so plenty of time for it to be released and tinkered with before I dive in!

I just hope my Streak lasts til then as it's currently doing multiple restarts (and restart loops) every day :(
[Streak 5 General] sturmavik:
Looking forward to seeing how the Samsung Galaxy Note sells - and more importantly how moddable it will be. Pretty sure it will be my next phone. I'll miss the Streak, but won't miss the lack of hardware driver support or lack of CM7 rom.

Just bought a Streak after selling my Ideos S7. Will replace with the next generation 5-so" after Galaxy Note. Sorry, will skip Note as I think the Streak's resolution is sufficient already :) And btw I didn't liked the Note's design -- too much resembling first generations iPhones. Would be much better if it had the same design as GS2 :)

Great battery life with 1 hour = 10% usage with browsing through wifi :)

[Desire HD General] Dowsett:
Hi all,

Really am new to all this. bought my DHD yesterday and the screen broke within hours, so after returning it for new one today i have a new phone again.

Few questions i would like to ask, that even after searching and doing some research i am still unsure of.

So.. i get my phone and it has alot of spam apps on it. in order for me to remove these i need to 'root' my device. i think i understand what that is, not 100% what i can do with it.

i wanted to ask.. if i were to update to gingerbread 2.3, would i have to root first, remove spam apps, then update or would that just put the apps back?

also a question about these ROMs ive seen people chatting about. Are these just similar to windows based themes? wall papers,annimations,sounds etc?

To sum up, i am looking to get rid of crappy apps and just browse around my (latest, aka gingerbread 2.3) stock software for a few weeks before installing a different theme or whatever they are.

Sorry if this seems simple, i have just switched from Apple Os which is so much more user friendly imo.

Thanks for any replies

Root and soff first. Install a custom 2.3 rom like leedroid or rcmix then all the spam will be gone. Follow the guides in the dev section.

[Desire HD General] darren91teo:
I suggest you to root first then install a custom ROM.

Those are custom ROM, which developers uses stock ROM as base. They modified, customized and tweaked it, so it is much faster and more battery saving than stock ROM.

To flash a custom ROM, you can find guide in the development section.

It has various rom screenshot examples, some videos and an up-to-date list of roms here at XDA. You can check it out via my sig.

I put it together with people like you in mind.

Maybe it can help or at least inspire you.

[Desire HD General] katman4:
Hi there welcome to Android.

all that rooting isn't really obligatory, more of a fun thing to do actually. Most of the time ROM's from xda developers are better optimized and faster than the ones coming from HTC, but HTC aren't horrible developers.

For hiding crappy apps you could install an alternative launcher (i use GO Launcher EX) which allows you to hide certain apps. This way you'll never see them but the niceties of the Sense UI will be gone also (some of them). However Go Launcher is quite customizable.

and btw, this is the big thing with android, customization. You can change almost anything about it only sometimes needing root to do it.

It's a great OS and if iOS is friendly to noobs, Android is not as friendly (a bit of a learning curve but not steep) but it does let them show of a lot more.
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
Every time I use HTC Sync on my DS, a window briefly pops up telling me there is an error on my removable drive, and do I want to "scan and fix" it?

I know that this message does occur if a removable drive is unplugged from windows without going through the "safe removal" procedure (so volume is flagged as "dirty")

On the other hand, I have always been extra-careful to NEVER unplug the DS (when it was connected as removable drive) without diligently going through the safe removal process.

I can only conclude that there is either a bug in HTCsync or Windows.

Actually scanning the SD card never seems to reveal any actual errors.

I'm using Windows 7, 64-bit version.

Do other HTC Sync users experience this problem ?

Should I just ignore it and not worry ?

- Steve
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
I don't think that message is being produced by HTC Sync, but by Windows itself.

Have you tried scanning the memory card when plugged directly into the PC? Or try using the following command in a command prompt:

CHKDSK /F X:\

where X:\ is the drive associated with the memory card, and see if any errors are found.

If that doesn't work, you could try backing up the memory card, do a full (not quick) format in FAT32 mode using your PC, then restoring your data to it.
[HTC Desire S] fasty:
Yes, I am sure that the "scan and fix" message actually originates from Windows, but is HTC Sync really corrupting my card (or at least making windows think it is corrupt) ?

Backing up the card and formatting it externally fixes the problem once, but I have found from experience that even a brand new card will produce the "scan and fix" message again almost right away.

It's more a nuisance thing than anything else - and I'm curious to know where it originates.
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
Given your above description, I'm gonna have to go with Mordor.
[HTC Desire S] podycust:
That message does originate from Windows its nothing to worry about I think its just the way HTC sync unmounts the SD card but I an sure it unmounts it safely. I think its because windows doesnt unmount its stays marked as dirty hence that message

Hey there,

i am new here. I have quietly no idea of ROMs etc. :D

I rooted my desire and installed ROM Manager and Clockwork Mod Recovery

and i made a backup of the system and all apps on my sd card.

I read that i have to partitione my sd card. But I don´t know what it is etc.. :(

Now i want to install MIUI, when its possible the German version.

I heard from a friend that this ROM is nice and take not so much battery as the HTC Sense Rom..

Please can everybody help me and give me instructions what i have to do. :)

Thanks a lot :), Jakob

Hmm mate , all these answers are easily available if u search

but anyways since am replying may as well answer ur queries

use gparted (search and download) and format ur sd card get an ext4 partition if u want more space for apps ( install d2ext ord2sd miui rom)

download the required zip file , place it on ur sd card

boot into recovery and navigate to the location of ur rom and flash it using install from sd option ( although do a factory reset of ur phone and wipe other stuff as cache and all)

all the above options wud be available in recovery

in case u have a doubt search here in the forum or PM me

Follow the instructions to partition your sd card using GParted. It's not that difficult (there's a video you can follow).

Read the instructions fully on how to flash the ROM of your choice and then follow.

God luck.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mmoran27:
I think Samsung blew it on the design of the galaxy tab 10.1

There is a serious screen and stability problem with the tablet.

Whenever I pull it out of my bag I have the Newton rings.

I know that a lot of people believe it is weather related or humidity related.

My experience is that this is because the glass is too close to the digitizer.

What makes it worse it the fact that the case flexes so much due to the weak plastic on the back. Even the weight of the battery can cause these rings to appear by holding it upside down.

I don't believe that a screen replacement can fix this unless they reinforce or separate the distance between the two surfaces.

Has anyone with a repaired unit tested it by holding it upside down to see if they still get the rings? Mine go away but some don't. It is always reproducible though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AnyMal:
My Tab has none of the issues you're describing. Why not replace it under warranty.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TML1504:
also no newton rings here!

and trust me, i know such discussions (display related flaws) far enough from my SGS2:

there is/was a problem with yellow tinting especially on the left side of the display, most people have it to some extent, some not. the ones with the flaw almost never believed the other guys that their displays were close to perfect...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dpeppe01:
No replacement under warranty.

You will receive refurb replacement. Cannot request new unit. Mine sent back diagnosed with bad mother board. No motherboard available in US, will not be for awhile. A long while was what i was told by repair facility. I do believe they are cannibalising units to refurbish.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TECK:
The Newton rings can appear later on... there are people who got them after 5 weeks.

My belief is that they are frequent on the first batch... My screen is extremely rigid and darker than the ones shown in videos. You can hardly see the difference between the bezel area and the screen:

The picture was taken at an angle against my black monitor screen. In the lower right corner you see the color difference between the bezel and actual screen, taken against a white wall reflection. I press it fairly hard in several areas and did not have any issues.

I guess it was the trade to have an unlocked device. :)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
Hey folks,

got a question about a problem i recognized last week.

I was at Munich this day and my phone had about 50% battery left (~11:00 A.M.)

After some hours (it was about 1:00 P.M., i guess) I wanted to call a friend and saw, that only 10% battery was left.

I switched off everything that seemed unnecessarily and switched the phone into powersavingmode.

Some hours later I looked up the built-in batterylog and recognized, that the phone's display was nearly all the time between 11:00 and 1:00 turned on.

I was wondering about the reason for the waking-up of the device.

Any advice, how i could figure that out?

What about Juice Defender? Do you recommend it?

DN41
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Bombastic:
Have you tried looking into the phone logs using a program like Logcat? It should show phone events and allow you to trace back to the offending event (if the logs go back that far).

I have heard good things about Juice Defender, but after trying it out, I just configured Llama (it's like Tasker but free) to mimic the behaviour I wanted and removed JD. The interface I find on Juice Defender is fairly clunky, but the program works well enough. Other programs like Green Power Free also work well and, well, are free.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DDFF:
Juice Defender itself is a battery consumption, if your phone has been rooted, try to re-flash the rom and before it, WIPE everything clean, cache, data,system..very, very important!!! imagine how could ur phone work properly if your got a "dirty" rom
