[Acer Iconia A500] gjkdjjskjwdn:
OK, I found KoboAcer.apk’s location, but I still don’t know how to remove it. By analyzing a backup of the ROM, I discovered that KoboAcer.apk is located in the flexrom (flexrom.img). My problem, is that I don’t know how to unpack flexrom.img and repack it without KoboAcer.apk

Could a ROM developers help me? I am stuck with the flexrom and I can’t find a tutorial/post.

Thanks!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freemini:
OK, first off. I read about the 2.3.3 bug in Android. I got the phone 2 days ago and I noticed that it uses quite a lot of battery when sleeping(lost 20% this night, 10h).

Battery use shows Android OS that used ~40%, next is Fancy Widgets(my fault, I know). Mobile data was off, wifi on. Every sync thing is on. It's not rooted or anything like that. From what I understand, using the 2.3.4 firmware should fix this issue. I'm wondering if I just have to use ODIN and flash just the PDA part. Since it's official it shouldn't void the warranty right? And it also shouldn't wipe the device. And please tell me which I have to use, there just so many firmwares here.

Here's my about screen:

P.S. I know this has probably been posted before, but at least point me to someone else's question that has been answered clearly. Answers like "search before" won't help at all. Thanks.

Has anyone tried the top link? I would love to have a dual booting machine. It says it is possible but they haven't had any luck with dual booting with Ubuntu. I like to try with windows and this seems to be the most user friendly and update to program.
[Epic 4G General] crawrj:
I am just seeing this so haven't tried anything out but wanted to say I am running Windows 7 x64 and Ubuntu now. I have done it with other versions in the past.
[Epic 4G General] dtm_stretch:
Which method did you use to do that?
[Epic 4G General] crawrj:
If you have windows installed you just boot to the ubuntu cd and go through the setup. It will give you the option to resize the drive to make a partition for Ubuntu. Pick a size and go through the install. Once it is done when you boot you will have the option to boot from Windows or Ubuntu. If I remember right it will default to Ubuntu if you don't make a choice within the defined time. You can edit Grub to change that. You can do this to change it to windows if you prefer http://www.hackourlife.com/change-default-boot-order-ubuntu-10-04-lucid/.
[Epic 4G General] dualcor3:
You can also go to the Ubuntu website and you can download the windows installer that lets you dualboot if you didnt have a cd burner (or if its broke like mine lol) or if you dont wanna wait for the cd to be shipped.

Yeah you can use it for custom roms because it lets you edit the updater script. You could use it for themes, apps, scripts, kernels, or pretty much anything you wanna flash :)

you know when you make a call on stock android and you dial a number and you get a picture of the android on your screen and likewise the same happens if someone calls you (this is as long as you havent assigned pictures to your contacts or you are calling someone not on your contact list).

is it possible to edit something in the rom (stock or custom) so that the android picture doesnt show up on the screen?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
That would prolly be done in dialer.apk, but I think it's coded in...

[HD2 General] zlayaa:
Hello! I've currently got an HTC Desire and I'm not that happy with Android. I'm tired of the laggy, inconsistant and boring UI of both Sense and stock Android. I've had an iPod Touch and I've got an iPad and I'm a big fan of iOS, but I want to try something new.

I've been reading about WP7 a lot and it looks very interesting, I've also tried different WP7 phones in stores and I fell in love with the smoothness and consistant Metro UI.

The phone that I'm thinking of at the moment is the HD2, I think that it would be a good choice for me because it is able to run a various number of platforms (I like modding my phone and trying new stuff). So I've got a few questions about the phone:

The phone is almost 2 years old, is it hardware good enough to meet todays and tomorrow's requirements?

How is the screen of the HD2 compared to the Desire's (WVGA, 3,7", AMOLED)? Does multi-touch gestures work well? Is it dual-touch or does it support more than two fingers?

Is Spotify available for WP7 yet?

Are any key features missing in the WP7 port for HD2 (such as camera, headphone jack or WiFi not working?)?

What other platforms than Android, WM 6.5 and WP7 does the HD2 run? I saw that there are sections for Ubuntu and MeeGo here at XDA, are those platforms stable enough for daily use? How well does Android run?

Should I buy a used one or a new one?

How is the battery life?

What are your opinions? Would you buy a HD2 today? Opinions and recommendations about other phones are welcome as well!

Thanks in advance :)
[HD2 General] tomksoft:
1. I'd say yes. It might get a little more outdated when two core or even quad core processors roll out. One the other hand, there is no operating system that could use more power than HD2 has.

2. Screen is the weakest part of HD2, AMOLED technology is a lot better in terms of picture quality as well as power saving. I'd say it is just OK.

3. No idea.

4. No idea.

5. HD2 can currently run WM6.5, WP7 and Android - all stable and all working. Meego and Ubuntu are rather proof of concepts and not useful for daily use.

6. Now this is up to you. If you're short of money, go for used one. If you can afford a new one, get a new one.

7. Depends how much you use the phone, what operating system you're running etc. I managed to get about 4 days of standby(stock battery!) on Android with automatic internet connection and mail syncing every 30 minutes and 3G off. I consider it pretty good for a smartphone.

However, the most important thing about this phone is the number of supporters here at XDA. There are hundreds of ROMs to choose from, you can try a new one every day :) And well, I do not think there are many phones that can multiboot two systems(there are some that can handle different systems, but each change requires reflash).

I am a person who can afford any phone any time. If someone told me that there is a HD2 with amoled screen, quad core cpu and 4 gigs of ram and (it still can multiboot) for $2000, I'd buy it right away. Back to reality - in my opinion there is no better phone out there.
[HD2 General] sudeep6258:
Well, it's hardware is now pretty old compared to most of the phones out there. But it still works I haven't seen any place where I'd be like oh crap I wish I had another phone this is just too slow.. Never.

Screen = Big Let Down. You won't be all that happy with the screen rest assured

Multi-touch works well but not so well in WP7. I believe it is dual touch.

Spotify is available on WP7 last I checked it will take you a spotify wp7 google search.

Meego, Ubuntu not for daily use development has as far as I remember become extremely slow.

Key feature missing in WP7 for HD2 is camera gives green tint when used with flash. And imo camera quality is never as good with android or wp7 than with WM6.5 for hd2.

Take a used one from craigslist. Should be good enough.

Battery life not as good due to the aforementioned screen and 1250 mAh battery.

But, I still personally love my HD2 and won't part with it till the development from this community stops and I honestly believe WP7 would surely work perfect on the HD2 in the near future. Peace
[HD2 General] zlayaa:
Thanks for the responses! The only thing that makes me doubt atm is the screen.. Really love the blacks on the Desire's AMOLED display, but I guess that I'll get used to the HD2's display.

Anyone done the jump from AMOLED/S-LCD/S-AMOLED to LCD?
[HD2 General] sudeep6258:
Kinda.. My bro has a Galaxy S another has a S2 a friend has Sensation.. So seen many pretty nice screens must admit my hd2 looks pretty sad in front of those displays.. But, when I show them Android CM7, Sense, WP7 and all.. They all say please tell us how to do it ;)
[HD2 General] chevyrida:
Go get an hd2 it will be the best thing that ever happened to you cell phone wise
[HD2 General] Schocker1:
I won't make another topic for the same question, so I just reply to this one. I hope it won't call as digging up...

After XDA threads answering 90% of my questions, I still have one:

I will be able to afford an HD2 in March-April 2012. That said, I don't want to end up thinking "Gosh, why did I buy it?" after 3-4 months; is this phone still able to survive another year of support here, at XDA? I don't have enough cash to buy another $400 phone after half a year, so it is quite important.

Thanks in advance. :)
[HD2 General] jsmccabe78:
to be honest, it is a guess at this time. i mean in 6 months from now, there might be some new amazing things on the market. i would just come back and check in 5 months or so. and nicely done, not starting a new thread!
[HD2 General] zeus09:
If i were u i wont even think of getting this phone.

Ya in 6 months from not there will be more new stuff out there. So talking of the current market i think compared to other newer phones the HD2 is really good. 4.3 inch display, capability to rum multiple OS's. And it's blazing fast in wp7 and android

BUT...

Just google the number of HD2 users suffering with the same fault it has. I'm a victim of the same and i feel like dashing this crap on the floor. I'm sick and tired of this. Even after performing a mtty still it restarts.

So..

Either u have to be really like others to get a good phone without any faults or you too will be suffering like the rest of the HD2 owners. WHY TAKING THAT CHANCE? IF I WERE YOU I WOULD NOT EVEN IF IT CAN RUN 1000 OS's..
[HD2 General] Mister B:
I am really happy with my HD2 & it has been faultless for me on my personal setup WM6.5.x, but if you are likely to be going Android you are better looking at newer devices that are native Android.

Most hardware failures & bugs are on those users running Multi OSs or Nand Droid/W7 .

Ok, that is enough for me, I am going for it... After I get the money of course. ;)

BTW: @stepthehen: I've read the second story before and that's why I asked - if this phone has gone through two years and can mean so much for people...
[HD2 General] Mister B:
It is a great phone & if the price is right then still a trenendous bit of kit.

The flip side : if you are not likely to want WM6.5.x or multi-boot & are paying high end price then it is not the best option.
[HD2 General] Schocker1:
My mum says it is quite expensive, but, hey! Many phones nowadays have similar, if not worse, specs, but they are being sold with a higher price tag, simply because "they're new".

And I do want the multi-boot and I do want to play with OSes. Actually it's my #1 reason. ^^

I want a panoramic app (you can choose this in Visual Studio 2010 for Windows Phone) and one page for every single thing. One page should access a Twitter Account, one should access a YouTube channel, one page for a Facebook account, one page for a Flickr account and one page for RSS News. And I want to have a Background picture in the app. How can I make such an app? Please help me :) I wanna learn how to program apps for WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ireyn:
Sounds like you haven't done any development before. I don't know what MakeMyApp is, but if you're really interested in developing for Windows Phone, here are some places to check out.

This is the main developer hub. Register here, find educational resources, check on your apps ... Everything. http://create.msdn.com

These are the quickstart guides that got me through my very first app. You'll also want to check out msdn's Channel 9 for more education. http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/quickstarts

And get used to going here when you need to know how to use a certain method or class. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library

Good luck!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -WP7User-:
No, I haven't. I developed some apps for Android but I'm new to developing for Windows Phone 7 :)

MakeMyApp is a place where you can make a WP7 app online and then use it on your phone for 72 hours through their own app. But their app doesn't work on Mango and the limitation to 72 hours is really annoying. You can check out their website here. It's very easy. All you have to do is upload a .png file for the tile, a bigger .png file for the background, give your App a name and then you can choose if you want to get news through RSS, videos from a certain YT channel, photos from Flickr or updates from FB and Twitter. And for all those things you can specify an "account" to get them from. E.g. you wanna have YT-Videos from the Annoying Orange you can choose YouTube, then type in YT-Acc or whatever and then you can type in realannoyingorange as YT-Username. And voilà, you've got an app with the YT vids from the realannoyingorange channel.

I just thought that that would be kinda easy to program...'Cause the only thing my app has to do is access a certain account from Twitter, FB, YT...

But thanks for those pages. I already know them and I have read a little bit, too. But it's a LOT to read :)
