[G2 and Desire Z General] nelsdzyre:
yer old phones does not seems to be android. So desire z will be your first android phone?

If that is true....you chose the right device (:

Desire Z can get a little complicated to use at first, but after you have studied the phone enough you will be surprise what it capable off.

Let me start with the processor.

The stock processor speed is at 806mhz. But you can overclock it as high as 2ghz (: (yes with proper kernel and profile settings) but mainly desire z users overclock up till 1.2-1.5ghz only (it sufficient enough)

Next you said you like to watch video on your phone? right. Desire Z can play any video format so fine (please use MX video - just get it from the android market)

Since you like to watch videos + surfing and etc, that will cost you a lot of 'battery life'. It happens to most Smart Phone where their phone died too fast. But don't worry, your battery will last longer as you use your phone (about 2-3 weeks or so you will notice significant increase in battery life) but still it does not last as long as what you would expect. (it make sense if you use Data+Video+surfing - of course it consumed a lot of battery) - but since you mostly on wifi only, trust me, it will last longer (:

Androind is open source Operating System. Everything else you mentioned above is very possible and common to us (: it just depend to your liking. So play around with custom roms, applications in the markets, and study more about your phone (desire z user base is huge - you should be thankful)

so yes. this is all what i can provide you.
[G2 and Desire Z General] anjin75:
Thank you for the answer Nelsdzyre.

Cannot you tell me anything about browsing and viewing big folder of images? I read something about a software called quickpics (or something similar...) that is better then stock image application.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TobiS87:
Its an app called QuickPic and is devinately better than the stock gallery. Its for free on the market. I dont have too many images on my DZ, but that app is incredible fast in displaying pictures so i guess it will handle large amounts of pictures too.

Browsing with the DZ is fast with the stock browser. Additionally you can view flash contents. There are also some nice browser apps in the market available.
[G2 and Desire Z General] anjin75:
Thank you TobiS87,

Probably I'll go to a shop for a DZ this week. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] anjin75:
Thank everybody for opinion and advices. I am am finally a desire z owner. :)
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
The DVP was always the one phone I wanted to own but with all its issues I went ahead and bought an Omnia 7 (now updated to Mango).

I've heard Dell has released a new firmware that addresses all the initial issues so I'm wondering if:

a) all the issues are indeed fixed

b) the camera has been improved as it was pretty much terrible

I would appreciate very honest, objective answers so that I know what to expect.

Cheers
[Venue Pro General] magicsquid:
a) The stability issues have now been fixed. My phone is now very reliable. (Unfortunately, does not support the new wifi hotspot feature, however).

b) The camera seems to be improved. There's a thread with some pictures below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1206192

One of the problems seems to be that the camera doesn't have image stabilisation hardware (which the Samsung phones do have). The suggestion I have found most useful to take better pictures is to tap the screen lightly to take a picture instead of pressing the camera button. (Pressing the camera button shakes the phone and the pictures sometimes turn out blurry).

Also, tweaking the settings helps get better results.

In my opinion, the camera is okay, not great but not terrible either. I think your Samsung will probably take better pictures though.
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
Thanks, some of these pictures actually look great. My issue is there isn't a new phone announced yet with 32GB storage so I might end up going for a DVP rather than a new and shiny device. We'll see.
[Venue Pro General] Zurvv:
camera is worthless.
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
Deep down I believe you, that phone should really have been a gem.
[Venue Pro General] magicsquid:
Indeed, it needs more effort to keep still when taking a picture e.g. holding your elbows in to your chest and holding the phone with both hands. Also, easier in bright light than dim light as the phone needs to be held still for less time, so less chance of blurry pictures.

If you already have an Omnia, I'd suggest waiting.

The screen, thickness (i.e. bulk) and camera are probably worse on the DVP. The keyboard and storage capacity are better. So it's probably a side-step rather than an upgrade.

I've read about one Mango device so far that appears to be 32GB (unfortunately, Japan / Taiwan only atm):

http://www.phoneshop.co.uk/2011/09/fujitsu-toshiba-is12t-smartphone-review/

It's possible others might be unofficially upgradeable to 32GB - will know once people start using them. The new phones probably have the more powerful GPU too.
[Venue Pro General] tbvnz:
Download the Picture Lab app. You can take pictures within the app. It also has an overlay grid and most importantly an image stabilization feature using the phone's gyroscope.
[Venue Pro General] magicsquid:
Thanks - looks like a useful app. Unfortunately, I don't think the DVP has a gyroscope.

http://www.wpcentral.com/no-gyroscope-access-current-windows-phones-only-new-mango-devices2

Looks like the new Mango devices can optionally contain a gyroscope, so will probably be easier to get a good picture.
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
So really they need to release a DVP2.
[Venue Pro General] domineus:
I am really skeptical of another dvp

While wpcentral reported a rumor of a dell wrigley for india, looking at the specs of the device are really placeholders for a device that is EXTREMELY OLD and it doesn't match the specs from the leak. Furthermore, very reliable contact indicated the wrigley does not EXIST

Unless there was a change in 3 months (which there may be) that ramped up manufacturing of a new device, is is unlikely the device exists...
[Venue Pro General] JC_Agga:
go back to wpcentral and look who sent in that tip!
[Venue Pro General] domineus:
okay you submitted the tip

and your source is? because (thanks to beta testing) I got some pretty high tips there. I'm not invalidating your sleuthing, but if you take a look at every single page, it is a down grade in specs

Now it is likely that dell is focusing on developing countries in Asia, which is possible (as shown in Japan) but as far as the windows and tablet side, a lot has sort of been scrapped.

And again, it was reiterated in July that the Dell Wrigley does not exist. Further, Dell was making changes to its mobility and tablet strategy to best meet a more diverse demographic.

I'll make sure by dropping a few emails though

Edit

Email dropped. It DOES NOT exist. It's fake! Sorry bro
[Venue Pro General] slight22:
After the issues I had getting this phone replaced (took over a month) and the fact Dell has completely closed off all of it's North American call centers and all we can get now is india.

Even if there was a DVP2 and it was the best phone on the market bar none, with no problems at all. I wouldn't buy it.

/rant
[Venue Pro General] Crimson Lotus:
Funny How my experience w/ Dell is so different. I first bought my Brand new DVP back in Jan.'11 Had problems in Mar.'11 and Dell replaced it with-in the week.. Then Recently(days ago) My DVP had problem that it kept restarting whenever I slide the KB, Dell Replaced it with-in 3days.

No Extra cost.
[Venue Pro General] slight22:
All i'm gonna say is you are lucky.
[Venue Pro General] Bongo2k:
I haven't had any problems with mine at all and it was manufactured 30th March 2011. I even forced it to upgrade to mango and haven't had any issues.

Even put a generic class10 32gb microSD card in it with no issues so far.
[Venue Pro General] Jerkies:
The camera is actually quite good now. Possibly even the best wp7 camera, with the exception of flash photos.

Here are some comparison photos of the DVP and my HD7.
[Venue Pro General] petard:
The quality is good if you're a statue. I do not think it has an image stabilization. A slight movement causes the photo to be blurry.
[Venue Pro General] tai4de2:
The DVP's camera does not compete at all favorably with that of the Mango HTC phones either on quality or features. The new phones feature superior optics (f2.2 lenses), and burst and panorama modes. On top of that, the Titan's is also 8 megapixel.

And once the lights go down, it gets even worse. The DVP's flash is utterly anemic, and introduces a yellow banding effect onto pictures.

The DVP's might be better than the HD7's, but there can't be any serious claim to the best WP7 camera.
[Venue Pro General] domineus:
the titan camera is not all that...even with the major changes htc has done the camera to me is still a smidge above mediocre
[Venue Pro General] tai4de2:
I'd take "a smidge above mediocre" (Titan/Radar) over "utterly, dreadfully awful" (DVP) any day.
[Venue Pro General] magicsquid:
The video below compares the camera in the DVP to that in the HTC 7 Pro (also 1st gen WP).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=6l4FnfWp7Wo#t=286s

Thought it was interesting to see the comparison in different light conditions.

p.s. the video is 1080p, so increase the quality and use full-screen to see the pictures more clearly.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebbo90:
bought a touchpad when they were reduced. Finally got round to buying a new phone and got an atrix on ebay for really cheap. My question is, would it be worth selling my touchpad for the dockmk I would mainly want it for watching movies, word processing and browsing. I understand I would have to the webtop to do this, wanted to know what the performance is like.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
From what I heard, I would just get a keyboard for the touchpad and when android gets released for it you will then have a good tablet to do whatever you want instead of the quick and dirty work moto put into the webtop.

Speedily sent from CM7 Beta
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
Keep the touchpad. Until hdmi mirror in landscape is done, the lapdock is limited as is and.performance suffers.

Thank you
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] taufiiqqq:
well the cm7 camera shutter and auto focus sound is very annoying which u an easily turn off even when u are not in silent mode using the amazing app - Tasker

Step#1: download tasker from market - https://market.android.com/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm&feature

Step#2: Click on 'New' tab and make a new profile naming whatever u want (e.g mute cam)

Step#3: Select Application as First Context, then select Camera

Step#4: On Task Selection create a new task and name it whatever u want. Then click Add an action

step#5: Select Audio> System Volume....set Level to 0 and Done!

Now u will not hear any disgusting sound from ur cm7 camera.

[General Questions and Answers] BrianGM:
Hi

Got a Samsung Galaxy i9000 S. I have a 32 Gb memory card. Is it a good idea to save Apps to it? I realise that if something happens to the card I've lost my Apps. However, I have had Smartphones with far less than the 16 Mb flash memory I've got now (I think that's it?) and saving too many programmes and Apps to the internal memory caused the phone to freeze. Since I have 32Gb of memory with nothing else but, songs I thought it may be a good idea. Is that OK?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
If you have sufficient free space on your Internal Memory just leave it be. I would only start thinking of Apps to SD solutions if you are running out of space and really need more.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MCMLXX100:
May be this is not you are asking for Sense but I recommend NDT ROM.... I'm also newbie and try several ROM. I'm using NDT MIUI ROM right now. I like the way they organize the theme. Just IMO
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] michdj00:
NDT

I would second the NDT MIUI rom. It is very stable, clean and fast. MIUI also has some nice themes. I would stay away from most of the sense 3.0 threads if you are looking to use wifi hotpsot and the camera as they are not real stable

The Cm7 roms are pretty stable to. Once you get Magldr you can backup and try a few till you find one you like
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] greg17477:
as stated before. if you want to enjoy your phone in all its ways, stay away from the new sense 3 roms. I was also the Sense guy, untill i tried miui. For me this the way my phone should work. Miui has ton of features its fast, its stable (Systeminfo shows almost 300 hours without reboots) and very versatile. Read the miui bible, cos there are features (usefull ones) there, which most users have never heard about. If you like theming etc. miui is the way to go. Everyday new themes which are applied by a click, no editing of apks needed. I seriously cant imagine go back to another rom, that would be a major downgrade for me.

the rom i use is JW miui from jan-willem3. jan knows what he is doing, so i recommend this highly ;)

Hi,

I'm new member so I can't post in the right (development) section. :/

I installed Topogigi 1.6 (cause I don't need bells and whistles of 1.7)

I let my ancient baseband (the one that come with v10d stock: BB 0725 ... There's a difference between BB 0725 for v10d and BB 0725 "gingerbread" ?)

Can I call without problem (normal calls) but people can't hear me calling with Skype neither with Gtalk (video works fine with Gtalk, not tested with Skype last version).

I don't know if it's V20E related, BB related, kernel (neoblaze) related, rom related... I saw that gr3 modaco had apparently the same problem (paul made a correction in the last hours), and someone had the same problem (look at the post #150 in the Topogigi thread) with Topogigi 1.5

So... Anyone have the same problem? There's a solution?

Thanks,

Off topic: I noticed also an heavy battery drain (worst than V10D stock) and maybe my phone is hotter than V10D stock.. Someone noticed it?

Thanks again

so, I'm on CM7 and wanna download Pocket legends from the Market but it says that I don't have sufficient space. I've tried deleting dalvik cashe and no good.

the game size is 28mb. :confused::confused::confused:

Any Ideas??? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elhennig:
Delete the files /cache/download*apk in order to get some more space for the downloads. Maybe that's sufficient. If not you can move the cache to a virtual disk. Try searching in the forum.

It's a market 3.* problem. The downloads shouldn't go to /cache and should also be cleaned up after succesful installation.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Do this in CWM (recovery):

- wipe cache partition

- wipe dalvik cache

If it doesn't work and you have very little internal space left, uninstall 2 or 3 bigger games so that there's enough space again. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
How much free space do you have in /datadata? (Use Root Explorer to check, etc.)

If it's less than 28mb (or however big the game is), you need to either: 1) delete some apps, or 2) move apps to sdcard.

Sooo, has anyone else ordered from them and actually received their Nook?
