ios in general does run faster and cleaner but because the way the software was designed you dont to many task managers its not a resource hog

android on the other hand thats why phones are now coming out with better processor more ram to even run gingerbread etc and future os updatess
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drae3000:
Hi this is a question about porting the dialer of the rom to look something like the one on the galaxy s theme i saw on the dev forum. I LOVE THE ROM just want the stock dialer and contacts changed...I know Spaarc and Z have just about mastered using parts of different roms to create this one...Since i am considered an amateur i had to post here. Spaarc if you read this as well as Z freex10 and the Semi Aosp are the best keep it up.

Its amazing that we spent $100 or $200 on a new android device and 9 times out of 10, 6 months later those devices are gathering dust in a drawer somewhere and we are on to bigger and better devices.

I myself have been lucky. I originally started with android when the G1 was released on T-Mobile (also when I began modding). I traveled a lot and was unimpressed with the T-Mobile network but, until a better option for a device that was that customizable came

along I was stuck with it. Fast forward to February the following year when I finally had the money to switch to Verizon and get a Motorola DROID 1. I handed my G1 over to a friend of mine who shockingly still uses it today. I set to work modding my DROID 1 on day 1. It was a great device and I spent weeks at a time glued to my phone and computer screen unlocking more and more variations of features and themes. October of that same year best buy mobile had a one day sale on the samsung fascinate. I was not yet eligible for an upgrade so I added a line to my account just so I could obtain the phone free and walked out of there happy as a kid on christmas morning with no cash out if pocket. I gave my Motorola DROID 1 to my cousin. A friend of mine who also had a DROID 1 upgraded to the DROID X shortly after that and gave one of my sisters his DROID 1 which I had completely modded for him (she is still using it today). My other sister got a DROID Incredible and I installed cm7 on it for her (she stills uses it today). Fast forward to today, I have just upgraded to the DROID Bionic, gave my Samsung Fascinate to the friend with the DROID X and, gave his DROID X to my mother. So every android device purchased by myself or friends and family is still in use today.

I currently own a Motorola DROID Bionic and an Acer Iconic A500 tablet, one of my friends is using my old fascinate and my mother has his DROID X, one of my sisters is using his old DROID 1 and my cousin has my DROID 1, another sister has a DROID Incredible, another friend still uses my original G1, and I have 2 other friends, one with a DROID X and another with a Samsung Epic 4g. Oh yeah and I purchased a Toshiba Thrive for my stepmother and gave my mother a nook color with cm7 on it. Also i have an aunt with a motorola droid 2 global, a niece with an LG Ally and a sister in law with a Motorola devour. All devices are still in use and none of them gathering dust. Just one big circle of close family and friends all on android.

I would love to hear your stories of android and how it affects you.

Edit: The DROID 1 I gave my cousin was warranty replaced with a DROID Charge. My mother started with a Samsung Gem before she got my friends DROID X and that Gem is most likely gathering dust in a drawer.
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
I upgrade to a new device on average....about every six months. I had the G1 then the MyTouch3G. I gave the MyTouch to my husband when I got the N1. (I gave the G1 away....and bought my husband another N1) Then my husband bought me the Nexus S in February and in July I my father bought me the Sensation4G, I then sold my N1. Most recently I traded my father a cr-48 for a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1......(and I still have my husbands cr-48 I can use) That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

It's a tablet dammit! Not a BIG phone....

[Off-topic] bbobeckyj:
My experience with Android consists of having looked at a couple demo models, a couple of friends' phones, and all the traffic on here, so I thought, I'll try it on my HD2...

tbh, no idea what the fuss is all about, I lost all the functionality I currently enjoy with WM, and gained a system wide Google copy of SPB Mobile shell... I will be fair and say that I didn't give it the same effort I have over the years with WM, but why would I? I've spent months and years tweaking and hacking my WM phones. Until my HD2 dies, or the technology becomes too advanced to ignore, I see no reason to leave WM.

I just don't understand why Andriod is so popular, I feel the same about the iphone, but that has a reason: excellent marketing which blatently plays to the consumer's ignorance that everything it advertises already exists and has done for a long time.

Why Android is popular I don't know, free licence for the OS? 'Finger friendly' can't be the only reason can it?
[Off-topic] xaccers:
I came to it from a similar point as you, I much preferred WM6.5 with SPB3.5, but I needed the ability to connect to two exchange servers.

Knowing that eventually it would be time to upgrade, and the only replacement OS with the potential to be close to as good as WM was Android, I tried a Nexus ROM, it sucked and really put me off for a few months, how people get on without Sense is beyond me.

Then I found a Sense ROM, it worked well with a few tweaks, but subsequent releases got less and less stable and had more and more issues.

Then I found BoxmaX's ROMs and they impressed me.

Now I've got a Sensation my fiancee has my old HD2 (she had my HD before) running BoxmaX KS V7 and is happy with it. She needs the ability to run WM6.5 due to the Microsoft Reader books she has (now there's an example of how MS neglected their great product, they could have been where Kindle is).

I do miss TomTom.

Not sure this is the right place to ask questions - but regardless, back to Froyo stock? If so you could ODIN something from

- I believe there are some that are pre-rooted for you. You could also ODIN the EE4 tar found

(maybe include the pit file found

, boot into recovery and flash a custom kernel (like one from

Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum

Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS

Moving to Q&A
[Verizon Droid Charge] dkguru:
Thank for your kind response... ;)

You're not a ****, you are just stating your opinion

Now, in response to that, I did in fact read (alot), and the reason I asked was because:

1) A lot of postings says use RM, it's so much easier, so I have been doing that on the wife and daughter OD's and it works like a charm - so I want it for my Charge.

2) The cwm page here:

clockworkmod.com / recovery_images.html

Lists "Samsung Charge" as an option (!)

So I figured MAYBE the Charge rom was identical to one of the 4 listed options and it was one of those "you just have to know" kind of things.

But, no matter what, thank you for responding, I don't take offence to blunt reply AND it answered my question; I now KNOW that I cannot use RM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Birthofahero:
I gotcha. Ya rom manager is a great tool, I used it all the time on my original incredible. But you absolutely cannot use it on the charge. Im actually not even sure why or what it will do to your phone so you're right about "you just have to know".

The only reason I was so blunt was because I have been seeing a lot of people that are new to rooting (and even new to android, not saying that you are) really messing up their phone. Would hate to see that happen here due to some silly ignorance.

My phone is my only connection to the internet so if I bricked it I would have no idea how to fix it and would have no way to post on here for help without finding a library or something which may as well not exist in L.A. That is why I think knowing and reading is so important.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dkguru:
Agree :)

Oh look. Charge is now in the CWM list of the latest version :-)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INHUMANITY:
I noticed the problem this morning during my commute. I thought Google was having issues with Gmail. I switched to my work e-mail (Exchange) and when I hit send, the item sits in drafts and goes nowhere.

If I create an e-mail with the Gmail app, I hit send and it becomes faded as if pressed or now unavailable and just sits there. Keboard still there and cursor just blinking waiting for another e-mail address.

With Exchange e-mail, I hit send and a few seconds later I get the pop-up saying the message was saved in Drafts.

Odd that both Gmail and Exchange e-mail are not sending. Everything else seems ok. Reading e-mail, web surfing, etc.

I tried clearing Gmail data with no success. I'll wipe my Exchange e-mail next and see if that does it anything.

I also power cycled it for good measure too.

Any ideas? I'm running the stuck ROM, but rooted using Universal Root 4.

---------- Post added at 01:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

Please disregard.

I launched Uninstaller to see if I had installed anything and hadn't thought about it. Turns out an app called "Seal" which was Amazon's free app of the day (yesterday I believe) was preventing e-mail from being sent.

Even when disabled. I uninstalled it and e-mail functionality returned to normal. Really disappointed in the Seal app, though.

I have had the same issue with this one as well. Uninstall Seal, and Gmail behaves. It's a pity too. Seal looked to be a good app.

[LG Thrill 4G] Komodo Rogue:
You can make nandroid backups available through CWM, check out designgear's thread :)

Edit: Oh yeah, and my suggestion for a ROM? I would love a ROM that comes debloated, deodexed and zip aligned (just for easier theming - that does make theming / sharing themes easier, right?), has the speed tweeks/optimizations available for the Optimus 3D, obviously AT&T radio, and if I can dream a little, several more preinstalled fonts, LP or a psuedo gingerbready launcher, and some light theming with some matching backgrounds* and a matching bootup animation. A kernel that allows for OC would be nice to have I guess, but I can't imagine using it to be honest; the battery life is so bad already.

Good luck!

*If you know what colors you're using, I'd be happy to find or create matching backgrounds and/or a boot animation if you want.
[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
If Possible and a big IF considering I have yet to see a device not HTC Branded that uses Sense but Would love to see a sense type Rom IF possible. Also would love an OC kernel considering battery isn't really an issue for me considering I am Always by a power source, that and I sit at home all day lol. Even if I didn't I would probably Underclock and Undervolt for battery Life than OC at night when I got home and wanted to do stuff on the phone.

The X2 is now a paper weight.

I was scrolling from homescreen to homescreen and it just rebooted. Will not boot up. Hangs at the "dual core technology" part. Tried going into stock recovery to maybe SBF back.. hangs at "starting rsd protocol support".

Shes done.

Depending on what I get as a replacement tomorrow, I may be back, I may not. Well, I'll always be back, just maybe not in the same capacity. Cant make themes for a phone I don't have.. hard to test them.

If I cant get into CWR or factory recovery I dont see how. The worst part is, I wasnt even doing anything reckless when it happened.

Do you change the bootstrap to "charge only" mode ever? If not, pull your battery, plug it into a wall charger (without battery) and watch it boot into recovery.

Never used charge mode and it was (when it broke) and is now.. plugged into the wall.

I'm not really sure what happend to your phone, but if you really screw it badly: power down the phone, then hold the volume up key, then power up the phone while holding the volume up key, this will start you in RSD mode.

RSD mode doesn't advance past "starting RSD protocol support..."

It never says "Protocol support started" or anything.

That's as far as it goes. RSD mode is started once it says that. Just plug it in and let RSDLite do it's restore watchamacallit code flashes and gizmos. XD

I think you could've just SBFed it right then and there and didn't have to chuck it across the yard, although it's sweet that that made it boot into recovery. lol :D
