What issue do you have with Omnia 7 and your wireless provider?

Also, LG Optimus 7 actually uses NAND. HTC HD7 and Dell Venue Pro uses microSD.

yeh , htc show two new phone s just a moment,you know?\
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nakazul:
Random call gets muted, cant hear the the other, thou call is clearly connected. Also a random issue is that voices gets throu but gives a robotic voice to us calling so nobody can hear the other. This can happen 10 calls in a row.

Internet speed is sloooow most of the times. This is the only phone in our COUNTRY reporting this issue and never experienced anything like it. Add to that that there trying to cover it up. Oh the story is looong and i seriously dont want to hear the name Samsung in my preasence. Everything the done up till now is setting a example of how to NOT treat there customers. So while being a MS fan, and still beliving in the more the merryer, i still would be happy if they went out of bussniess, they clearly showed me they have nothing to do in it ... to not explode of anger thinking about the .....

Change of topic... My friend broke his screen on his Optimus 7 (told him but did he listen? nooo :-) Clearly a SD card installed so maybe there diff versions out?

And new topic again.

Yeah, saw the new HTac devices and also expected pricing. I would not use a phone with smaller screen then 4', and that is stretching it. So even if the screen mqy be bad, its a solid device and a obvious choise. But the price ... i bought my Omnia on a special price and therefore when money gets back, it wount be enough. All i get is like... oh, dont know dollar from top of my head, but it wont be enough thou. :'(

DVP is a fantastic phone. Get a T-Mo or unbranded version so you can get the latest firmware. I have *no* glitches/bugs at all, it is rock solid.

The only issue is that the camera is not great, but with Mango you can tweak settings and save them persistently, which mitigates this a lot.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicsquid:
I have a DVP and mine is rock solid too. The recent firmware update has resolved the crashing with Wifi. In the old firmware, the microSD card and Wifi were using the same DMA channel, so conflicting.

Of course, it's always possible to get a bad handset, so if you get a DVP wait until you're sure it's stable before swapping out the microSD card. Dell will void your warranty if they notice that you have removed the black tape covering the microSD slot.

The DVP is relatively thick / heavy compared to the Omnia 7 because it has a very good hardware keyboard. If you want a keyboard, the DVP is a great phone! As you mention, the camera is not the best, although better with Mango.

Shame you can't afford the Mango generation devices!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nakazul:
So the issuess with DVP camera is not so much the quality of pic´s as the actuall funkctions of it that will get fixed then?

Thnx for your replyes, and thickness isn´t that of a issue. The Omnia 7 had nice hardware, that what draw me in as the main thing. And i like the picture quality.

And yeah, shame on my economy holding back for a Titan, it spells everything i wanted exept maybe the screen. One you go Omnia 7 black you neverwant to go back =)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reeg420:
Id go with an HTC phone in general. Been using the brand along time, about 6 years. I personally have an HD7 and Id say its a pretty solid phone.

As far as the compass goes there is one available through HTC hub in HTC apps.

Not that Im biased but HTC has been around along time and has proven quality. Look at Samsung troubles with there first wp7 update. Thats after I had heard that samsung doesnt update there drivers like HTC does.

Id go with an HD7 again. Even the new phones arent that much of an upgrade from the HD7. Im waiting a few months to see if HTC comes out with anything better. AMOLED screens being one, dual core processors. Now thats an upgrade.

Not to mention easy chevron unlock and HSPL for the HD7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghrubi:
I like the heft of my HTC. Really "feels" like superior build quality.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nakazul:
Intressting notes on HD7 thnx.

I also am a long time user of hTC, my last being the HD2. Now hTC have had a lot of bad software work in past but on the WP7 devices the way hTC works seems to fitt the new OS like a glove.

The screen quality + the bad software made me give Samsung a chance. While they never have had good rep on there phones, the shown dedication on Android devices during 2010 gave me confidence that they would not repeat past mistakes, they have once again confirmed they have nothing to do in the mobile market. And IF you have a working Samsung phone, pray to the all mighty you dont need to seek there help, cuz you will get the worst customer support i ever experienced.

Im itchy for a hTC device again, but looking att Dell im curious, allthou i should by now for my own peace of mind settle for a devi e proven stabile. Only screens and the real GEO services that made me a bit carfull on HD7. And concerning screens, what is it with hTC and good screens!?

mm, HD7 or DVP, seems you guys are giving what i was scared of, very good and solid points.

Still have some time since its taking its sweet time sorting paperwork.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tai4de2:
The point about the DVP camera is that it's poor quality, especially in low light. The flash is totally in adequate and can result in a yellow banding effect because there's a covering over it that tints the light it emits.

On Mango you can tweak the camera settings similarly to how it worked before Mango, *BUT* you can finally persist the settings. There are some settings like sports mode and futzing with the ISO etc that make it better.

Also, Mango has the ability to take a photo when the screen is tapped, which helps keep the phone still and minimizes blurry shots -- before this I found it nearly impossible to get a clear pic at all.

So, now it's "*barely* passable" instead of "utterly horrible."

I think the DVP is the best WP7 device out there (until the Mango ones come out, I guess).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -WP7User-:
I've got the HD7 and it's a great device. Love the big screen and the cool design :) The kickstand is also a nice feature to have. You can't really make out a difference between MicroSD and NAND when it comes to everyday usage. NAND may be faster but you won't notice the difference. I'm really happy with it and I'd never sell it (well - maybe for a Windows Phone 7 phone with dualcore processor, front cam and Tango or Apollo on it ;)). And a compass is available via Marketplace (HTC only). HTC will also release HTC Watch and HTC Locations for WP7 and the HTC Hub will get a major update.

So...Take the HD7, maybe put the Mango RTM on it and you'll be as happy as a little kid :D

These are the facts. First I updated my android 2.1 to 2.3.3 sucessfully. however it didn't have root access.

So, I tried to root my Xperia X10 following this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1196421&page=1. Where the FlashTool is used. I was following all the steps mentiond, but in the Step 9 it failed :-S

Hello, seems like you haven't got the necessary drivers for flash mode

I just rooted (ten minutes ago) using aZuZu's root method, i screwed up once, then tried it again, it worked.

Just wait for text to appear or for the pc to initialise the drivers for the device.

If still no reaction from flashtool, download pc companion or update service, they would have the necessary drivers in order to flash.

Good luck.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesthad09:

3.- Choose 'Force psneuter.

I was having issues getting my A500 to connect to my mac as a mass storage device like it does on my W7 bootcamp. Either way here is a helpful program that will sync your rooted A500 to mac!

[Acer Iconia A500] gramps50:
Do you mean actual sync like with Dropbox or just trasnfering files to and from?

I found the best way to transfer files between the A500 and Linux is to use Ghost Commander file manager and then a FTP server on the Mac or my case Linux. I can also access my NAS drive using it by making an FTP connection.

Ghost Commander is designed after Midnight Commander which was a file manager in the DOS days and is still available for Linux and runs from the terminal.

Ghost Commander is available on the Market @ https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ghostsq.commander&feature=search_result

There is also a plugin for SMB

boot my mac into windows 7 - get the files - put them in a folder - drag and drop them to the bootcamp (dropbox) for my mac - reboot into mac grab the files and run time machine to backup all my data.
[General Questions and Answers] rockreactor:
Hello. It is my first post after reading many pages and threads in here and learning a lot of things about smartphones.

So this thread is not about Samsung Galaxy S2 vs HTC sensation, as i read like 100 threads like that, but about the software support those companies provide to their users.

Yes, Galaxy S2 is a superior phone, yes HTC has sense , S2 has this, HTC has that. Good, but what happens with firmwares, their OS updates, bug fixing and stuff like that?

The sensation comes with a 1.2 ghz processor and a decent vga. Many say that the drivers are not optimized. Should i expect great improvement from HTC on future firmwares ? How are things from the samsung side?

With a few words, which company is going to provide more updates for their devices and take care of its customer.

Both are great devices, my math say S2 , if i am going to hear in this forum that there will be a great improvement from the software side on HTC, then the my logic will go for HTC.

So what is your experience about software updates/bug fixing from those two companies and what to expect.

[General Questions and Answers] bilestoad:
I was just starting to wonder the same thing, seeing how samsung has been particularly slow in releasing updates. Except leaks, that is ;-)
[General Questions and Answers] LordManhattan:
IMO HTC is good at releasing firmware updates and fixes. For example they gave the Desire Gingerbread, and that's not something everyone does for an aging device. Samsung is not as good. They're pretty slow on updates also.

But you're at XDA now. I assume that my Desire HD won't officially get Ice Cream Sandwich, but that doesn't bother me much since we'll get it sooner or later from the great devs here at XDA.
[General Questions and Answers] sygeek:
+1. I would also like to point out that some of the HTC's phones like Incredible S are already Android 2.4 (Ice cream sandwich) ready.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phon00b:
Hello everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster.

I bought the G2 full price off contract at release because I didn't want to renew a contract with t-mo (after looking through all the plan options, this would bring my monthly bill to the lowest possible).

Well now t-mo is discontinuing its Even More plans and I've been notified that if I wanna stick around, I gotta renew and get a new plan. I've always been really happy with their service and phones, so I plan to stick around.

I've been really really happy with my G2, but as I'm renewing, that puts me in line for an upgrade and the only phone that really catches my eye is the G2X. Would you consider this a suitable upgrade? Mind you, I'm not into "modding" or anything like that. The most I've done is fre3vo'ing my G2 when it got Gingerbread so I could get some temporary root access and disable some stock bloatware.

My biggest concern is in regards to the portable hotspot feature. As the G2X runs stock android, I imagine its identical and as smooth as that on the G2? This is a big point for me because I don't have home internet and use my phone's hotspot for everything (laptop use and Xbox Live).

The G2X is alluring, but I won't give up my G2 if I'm going to be giving up the portable hotspot. No other phone catches my fancy, so if its not the G2X, I might just put the discount/upgrade toward a tablet.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the input, guys. I hadn't even heard of the Android Preferred plan, but I'll definitely ask about it.

I've already felt the pain of getting throttled after 5GB two weeks into my billing cycle, so if the Android Preferred plan isn't all its cracked up to be, I'll be getting myself a 10GB plan. That should be enough data to meet my needs as long as I exercise SOME restraint (my biggest use of data is probably listenning to podcasts on Google Listen). Sorry, Aceman, I might not be able to listen to EVERY episode anymore...

I suppose my only other question before jumping into the G2X is the "screen bleed" I've read about. Is it really that bad? Is it always noticeable? (As soon as my new billing cycle kicks in and my data's back to full speed, I'll try looking for videos that display it xD)
