[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
I feel a audio differnce with normal headpones.!

It boost the quality
[HTC Desire S] hosseinian:
Nothing can replace to it :D
[HTC Desire S] hoodedman:
Personal Opinion!

I am sorry but this is a scam.... I don't see no difference in sound... it's pure marketing if you have sound quality boost only by software, certain EQ setting,if you will, which works only in native Music Player for HTC WTF BTW????

I hate native music player... very limited (for example, NO FLAC support, CUE sheets ... and many more features)...

PowerAmp and/or PlayerPro, maybe both ;)

Just wanna say one thing!

Dump box HTC headset, poor sound quality... buy something else...

google it :)

Have bought recently Sennheiser CX300 and I must say that the sound quality improved very much :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
You cannot tell a differnce without any headphones plugged in. But with headphones and beats turned on, it certainly makes a difference
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Ben, I got myself a pair of monster beats in-canal earphones recently and I have to tell you even standalone they are great. But with the beats mod they the sound is heavenly.

I'm opposed to marketing gimmicks by principle and was skeptical at first.

But after listening to a pair of these AND comparing them to a set of Bose headphones at the same mall I concluded these are much better for the kind of music I'm used to.

However we have to remember that audio perception is a subjective feeling and not everybody may have the same taste.

Beamed from my HTC Desire S using xda premium.
[HTC Desire S] blindndumb:
may be you can look here
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Hmmmm

@BLD

Good to read a substantial review, with some actual detail, although still early and HTC could (or do I mean SHOULD) add additional hardware to later devices which could further improve the sound output from their devices, in fact to add weight to the Beats link-up it might be a good idea to do so, so as not to lose too much cred, no one feels like they're being taken for a fool.

@enigmaamit

I think your comments just prove that the better your headphone the better the music sounds! ;)
[HTC Desire S] hoodedman:
double :P

"Beats" is a EQ software upgrade, as I understood, supported by native Music player... It is the same if you turn on an EQ function in your PlayerPro of PowerAmp... for me Beats has no purpose in my phone....

It's like.... "Heeey, it is the same phone with the same hardware and it has a autoEQ called Beats, and it is black'n'red in color, with cool headset.... please pay a fortune!!!" WTF!

UPDATE: (just read this review... kinda stepped on that one :P )

"The Beats Audio software isn't complete marketing vapor, but it's still inherently gimmicky and adds nothing in the XE's favor: you could achieve a better result on the original Sensation simply by downloading a third-party music player that lets you play with the EQ settings yourself. The only thing which might sway us to by the Sensation XE over its predecessor is the packaged YourBeats headphones, coupled with the red styling on the phone....."

[Motorola Droid Bionic] TauntingBull:
Is there a way to decrease the # of home screens on the blur?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lrs421:
Unfortunately not. You'll have to use another launcher for that.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TauntingBull:
I like the blur launcher .... wish they had a way to tweak this setting :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lrs421:
For some reason a lot of launchers designed by phone manufacturers don't offer this. The only ones I've seen that do are a couple of versions of touchwiz and sense 3.5. I too wish it was offered more.

Are you able to copy the information? It's a chinese site and you actually have to log in before viewing the content....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
Yes ,i have an account for that website .what information do you want me to copy.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] FMAranda:
All the description would be nice :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
I am trying to upload some photos to this thread.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
i dont know what is this.

"SamsuNg GalaXy Ace for Miui(CM version)" didnt give any sense. is it a pure miui or just cm7 using some miui app so it looks like miui?

btw u doesnt need to reg to view that thread content. heres some screenshot from that thread, and i dont see any miui settings
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
It's CM themed. Looks like CM settings in the first picture. Chinese developed?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] FMAranda:
Does it has any other languages?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
thought so :p

using gtranslate just gave some mambo jumbo crap translation :p
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kanivier:
Can anyone give us any feedback concerning its stability, battery life, languages available
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
You downloaded this rom?

Launcher is miui or qq launcher
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
I am trying to flash it .will update my experience here later .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
Anyone can share with me the download link of cooper.ops file?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
You might as well use this theme:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1189723

Along with QQlaucnher (/MIUI launcher).

edit: You can find the cooper file easily on google.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Thing is, I believe the CM7 is cooked by the Chinese developers. Unless they somehow used XDA sources?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
I have finished flashing this rom .experiencing now ..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Hatshipuh:
Looks just like CM7 with this theme and some MIUI Apps/Launcher.

Tap-a-talked from my Galaxy Ace
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
Even launcher not look like miui's as in miui launcher ther is no app drawer but as screenshot shows there is home icon which touchwiz launcher has
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
How was that related to what I wrote? xD
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
So it may be of a different base. If so not really the same as the CM7 we are using with themes and launchers.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
Yeah, ure probably right on that point, but visually it wont be hard to attain the gui.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
No idea ,i just found it there and share with XDA sirs.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
How was the user experience?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
so far ,it's very good .it's smooth and stable .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kanivier:
Is there a mirror link
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Possible if you upload a mirror? Chinese servers are extremely laggy even for Asians. From singapore with a 100Mbps speed i've gotta see the page load for 2 minutes.

Edit: Finished downloading, peering at the files. It's got root explorer, seems that they don't care much about piracy. App2sdgui included, app2sd binaries included. zram tun and cifs modules included.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mkeles84:
In language setting, which languages ara available?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jasonlev:
most of languages are available . unluckly, the EMAIL &GMAIL are not included.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kanivier:
Is there an alternative way of flashing this rom.zip coz cwm is giving error & it aborts...can odin flash this zip as a one package or something.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
The tweak options that you get from this rom is exactly like cm7? Is the home launcher like QQlauncher or is there anything special about it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] tonylin880806:
it's nice work@! we tried it, smoothly, stable, and light, but some bugs are in fixing, waiting for the final post on www.angeeks.com
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] omerhadad:
Please somone upload it to normal site like mediafire or hotfile or megaupload plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Flashed all rolled back to the kang version we have cuz many apps are translated to chinese, didn't like that. Cm tweaks are nearly identical, but kang version has 16-bit transparency option.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jusada:
Having some experience in this area, the launcher im almost sure is adw miui/iphone lancher. My guess is its someones look a like rom, simular to my own. Mines better! Lol!

(Edit) the theme is miui blue, its an edit of zdunex miui theme.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
I'll be waiting for yours. Since we're stable at 2.3.7 based cyanogenmod why don't you release yours soon?

Their font is nice actually.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jusada:
having theme issues and the root keep breaking when repacking. time constraints are the biggest problem.

(Edit) its out now in dev forum.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mformitchell:
I have just rooted my phone. I wonder if I can unlock bootloader after rooting?

If I can, which way is the easiest way?

And also I want to know the benefits of unlocking Bootloader.

I want to add that I don't know so much about doing so complicated things, please know that while informing me.

I really appriciate your answers...

stock rom Gingerbread 2.3.3, rooted.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain67:
Rooting and bootloader unlocking are separate. Your bootloader has to be unlocked using a special code unique to your phone. The code is supplied by Sony Ericsson. It won't work if your phone is a carrier locked one. Unlocking the sim card won't enable it either. You need something called fastboot and only unbranded, unlocked phones have it.

[Legend General] ranger4740:
Hi, I haven't been lazy I have searched for ages, & Unless I missed it I haven't found information on the misc1-2.img file that has to be flashed, I'm curious as to what it is and what it actually does. I know during the rooting process it replaces the original misc file, some guides I have read tell you to backup the original misc file then reflash it back, other guides don't even mention backup and reflash.

I did backup my misc file but I didn't flash back the backup. My phone is rooted and doesn't seam to have any problems.

any Info would be great, thanks :D

[Desire HD General] affinity121:
Just a little question, why do you state you have a "Iphone 3gs(Stolen)". Does the fact your telling everyone its stolen increase the size of your ego and make you seem cool?

Sorry if i'm totally wrong and it means something else, but if its what it seems well there is only one word for that.
[Desire HD General] rakinisbat:
The iPhone was stolen from me I don't get how this has any thing to do with my ego or my coolness :S:S
[Desire HD General] maatsby:
yeah that seemed a bit uncalled for. i think affinity121 misinterpreted the "stolen" to mean you stole it off someone

some apps i've been recommending to people:

- setcpu

- tasker

- root explorer

- samba filesharing

- adfree

these aren't really DHD specific though, and 4 out of 5 require root and not everyone i've been recommending them to has rooted their phone :p
[Desire HD General] rakinisbat:
Ohh k I get how it could have given ppl the wrong idea tnx both of you for pointing it out and I fixed it.
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
You've already tried the roms I would have recommended.

Take a look at my sig and maybe you can choose a few apps from those links.

For me it's mostly essentials like a decent keyboard, browser, screenshot app, barcode scanner, note taker (so you can paint/write on the screen), camera app, launcher, music player, YouTube, Rom Manager, any backup app, study app and stuff that makes your job or life easier in as few a clicks as possible.

Many of the best apps speak for themselves and are very popular. But there must be tons of great stuff that isn't well known yet..

[Desire HD General] MisterBuggie:
Swype keyboard, makes typing so much faster.

MyPhoneExplorer to backup everything (and type text messages from the computer).

PowerWifi, turns Wifi on when I put my phone on its stand (or just plug it in), saving data allowance, and also launches MyPhoneExplorer for me, so my phone is always connected to my PC when at home. (turns off wifi when I unplug)

Moboplayer, at least until VLC is out.

Plenty of others I could suggest, but those are the ones I really couldn't do without.

Thanks for tips
[Desire HD General] hopscotchjunkie:
Swiftkey X - greatest predictive keyboard I've ever used, especially once it's had time to learn your style. Paid app (worth every penny), but there's a free version in the market that gives you full functionality for a month so there's no excuse not to at least give it a shot.

Don't know what else I'd class as 'essential'; Tweetdeck (twitter/facebook), Tapatalk and Vignette (amazing camera app) are probably my most-used and first-installed, but with the possible exception of Vignette I can't say I'd use them to show off the phone's potential. That's what the ROM's for ;)

Edit: already been mentioned, but Tasker (once you've got your head round it) is great for showing off the kind of automation you can achieve. If you know anyone impressed by that sort of thing.

New app called App Extractor. The full version pretty much renders titanium backup useless. You can flash a new Rom, install this app and then grab whatever apps/sms/contacts etc you lost and extract it from your nandroid backup. Sweet as.

Hey guys, great apps and I love this forum.

I have an app to recommend, if you have big fingers like me even the DHD's gives complications, so I downloaded an awesome keyboard app, best I've ever used called Thumb Keyboard 4, it helps sooooooooooo much :)
[Desire HD General] Andy:
I got this for free, lucky enough to grab it on Amazon's Free App Of The Day. It is a great keyboard, I'd recommend purchasing it.
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
You can get an idea of how it looks here on my Android Keyboards page.
[Desire HD General] jeanporro:
I would recommend TuneIn Radio Pro, PowerAMP and Dolphin Browser(for me the best browser for android)

Apps i couldn't do without:

SoundHound

Goggles

SBM --- Design

ITriage

Any.DO --- Notes that sync with GTasks

Add BootManager in the paid app list ;)

[Desire HD General] napster113:
for me "absolute system root tools" is a must, its a paid app on the market.
[Desire HD General] CuBz90:
Would it be possible for you to link all the apps to the market, it would be alot easier for us to see a description of the app, and install it via the cloud :) Thanks OP
[Desire HD General] rakinisbat:
i will try to do it when i can :D
[Desire HD General] tanjunjie9:
add DSPManager to the list.
[Desire HD General] fshami:
Unfortunately google has blocked paid apps in my region. For free apps i can help OP with the links..
[Desire HD General] rakinisbat:

I would suggest Astrid Tasks since it can now also sync with Google Tasks instead of To-Do / Tasklist from the OP.
[Desire HD General] DonUber:
For video playing I recommend MoboPlayer it's the only one that work good when I am streaming from my NAS through BubbleUPnP and for Music Player I love PlayerPro/MIUI Player, as file explorer I recommend ES FileExplorer. :)
[Desire HD General] maatsby:
top effort on the OP mate, every app with a link! very handy

thanks!
[Desire HD General] rakinisbat:
Thanks Happy to have Helped :D
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
My list isn't as extensive as many people here but I made a quick page with the few regular apps I use, in case it can help some peeps. They don't really show off the device so much. They are just convenient or functional for me.

[Desire HD General] l33ch0r:
Iris isn't even worth the download...either my pronounciation sucks (I doubt that :D) or it just can't understand me.

If it understands me, it can't really help me. I was just asking if it rains, Iris tried to look that up and asked, which app I wanna use to take a look at the weather. Not a single app that would tell me something about the weather :D (Iris started to look at the weather with maps...)

Couldn't even give me the time...just told me "Can't help you right now"

hope they'll improve it...
