[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
I would still rather them continue to develop and progress "TellMe" and integrate their voice products across devices. Siri currently doesn't control other Apple products, but if Microsoft, in the form of the upcoming Xbox companion, would allow you to say "Xbox on" and have it behave as a Kinect substitute, I would enjoy it much more. That's just me. Those are the type of enhancements I would prefer, not "Siri, do I need an umbrella today?"
[Windows Phone 7 General] ScottSUmmers:
I was speaking more towards the granularity of functionality with voice recognition, e.g. MS possibly may not have to have the voice app respond to "Do I need an umbrella tomorrow?" to be competitive.

Sure, the implementation isn't as "neat" but if the end functionality is on par or there's other functionality [see post that you quoted me from] that supplements for the lack of such design then who knows it could still work out.

Of course, people generally like all that glitter and glam huh?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ROCOAFZ:
In WP7 for weather just say "Weather , what city, what state" It will bring up the weather, showing cloudy, rain whatever. Who needs to ask it for an umbrella, if it says raining i take one lol.

If you want to know how much wood can a wood chuck chuck or any other of the funny iphone lookups say the same in wp7 with "find" blah blah blah. they both access wolf ram alpha although tell me also accesses bing.

Difference being it doesn't read it out loud to you. I made a few iphone users at work mad when i showed them wp7 could do the same without saying it out loud back to me.

Also if you want to map directions in WP7 with voice, press voice button, say address (just the address, no map, navigate ect) above web results you will see a map button. Press it and you can then press directions or local scout (for things in that area).
[Windows Phone 7 General] goldenpipes:
As far as the lack of great APPs for WP7 i completely agree... What there needs to be is an APP company goes out and ports the Android and iPhone apps to wp7... not without permission of course but think about how much money Developers could save to get their apps out there.

Hire the developer to port the APP for .01c each time that app is purchased a lot cheaper than hiring someone onto what ever company you are payroll and all that crap.

just thinking out loud here.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mariuschi:
I think that SIRI is seriously cool... and it's at least 2-3 years ahead of microsoft and android. I am a wp user... but I would buy the new iphone only for siri and that realy impresive camera...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Vintage144:
siri wins, but it is just as annoying as tell me is , it needs to have a toggle switch to that IF you actually want this POS feature you can have it and if you dont want this POS annoying feature you dont have to have , unfortunately both Microsoft and Apple have decided whats best for the people buying there phones is this trash is always on! Registry hack please so I can eliminate this useless feature!
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
You have to manually activate it...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
Glam, hmm, hadn't thought of it that way. Some google searches don't turn up what I think they should, and if different phrases or words are used, its spot on... this is where I think siri shines:

"Is jfk closer or lagurdia?" Wouldn't work at all for android or telme, the results would be interesting on siri, and nkot glam at all. Planning a trip via voice searches in stalled traffic would be a great example of how this is a good implementation.

I'm just starting to use voice features on android for sending emails / txt / directions to people, but with more kids introduced to it I can see a completely different landscape of profiles... instead of glowing faces staring down at their phones, they tell it to do something, and it just works.

Lots of possibilites, just like we didn't imagine free driving navigation a few short years ago...it goes on.
[Windows Phone 7 General] xHausx:
You'll need to pay them a lot more than that lol
[Windows Phone 7 General] ScottSUmmers:
All I'm saying is that Siri has more presentation. Not saying it's a bad thing, but if Tell Me ends up functionality working the same I personally don't see the big deal. So one would end up announcing different commands, but who cares if the end result is the same.
[Windows Phone 7 General] achmeingott:
When I had an iPhone 3g, I went through 4 of them. The first two had the same problem, I wouldn't get an calls or texts all day, I'd restart the phone and have 3 voicemails and 5 texts waiting for me. All of them had a huge problem with dust under the screen, which is how I got the last two. That being said, I've never had a problem with my Focus, occasionally I'll have a rogue app that crashes at launch, nothing a restart or reinstall won't fix.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] oriondr:
A friend of mine told me he wanted to root his phone and get cyanogen running, as a Sprint Evo user, I am intimately familiar with rooting/etc, but was not aware that Samsung had released 2 (at least) different models of Samsung Galaxy S to T-Mobile (4G and Vibrant), and he wasn't able to tell me what the model was called, so we assumed Vibrant.

Bone-headed, I know

Long story short, we followed the directions on the Cyanogen wiki on how to root the vibrant, here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Vibrant:_Full_Update_Guide

We went through Step 1, and installed Cmenard's OverStock kernel for the Vibrant onto the SGS 4G, and now the phone continually boots into the OverStock - smaller, lighter, faster screen, and sits there.

Now he is able to get into recovery mode, but not into download mode.

Does anyone know how I can get him at least back to stock?

Thanks for your help :|
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I'm about to go to sleep, but I'll tell you how to get into download mode. To find a stock rom you can look in the bible (dev section), though I recommend you flash a custom ROM, maybe follow my GB starter pack guide to get your friend an awesome phone.

Plug the usb cable into the computer.

Unplug the cable from the phone.

Pull out the battery from the phone.

Put the battery back in

Hold the vol + and - keys (together)

Plug in the USB cable.

Should now get into download mode, even if the screen stays black. Odin/Heimdall should recognize your phone. Hope this helps, happy flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] oriondr:
I'll give that a shot; we've been trying to get it into download mode but haven't had much success yet.

He's going to bring it up for me to take a look this evening (first time I'll ever actually lay eyes on the device), so maybe I'll be able to actually figure it out when I can actually see it.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] D12005:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] oriondr:
Like I said,

a) I didn't know t-mobile had TWO Samsung Galaxy S devices (I knew it had SGS and SGS II, and that's it)

b) I have never actually seen the device, I only guided my friend through some instructions, and he apparently didn't know which phone he had either.

If this doesn't work, i know that you can also leave battery inside and hold down volume down and plug in cable. This will also work.

[HTC Inspire 4G] MaliciousBanjo:
I've been getting back into all the joys of rooting, and I've been looking into flashing custom boot animations. (Currently using LeeDroid, gonna give the new Revolution HD a try tonight.)

The boot animations say to download the .zip file to /data/local. For one, I can move files to that folder from ASTRO or any other file exploring app. Secondly, when I plug my Inspire into the computer the only files I have access to are those on my SD card.

Do I need a certain program to view my internal memory for these kinds of things? Or is there another method I am unfamiliar with?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

After upgrading to CM7 i was not able to connect to my Wi-Fi Network.after going through some threads i found that some people do face the problem so i again upgraded to WajkIUI 1.7.15 But sadly i am still not able to connect to my home network even after removing all security from the network it just shows network remembered and on pressing on connect is just shows scanning ... can any 1 help please.

Thanks In advance
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
This may sound like a no brainer but if you haven't already, reboot your router and see if it helps. Or perhaps switch to either B, G, or N rather than running your router in mixed mode. Seems like most peoples WiFi problems with cm7 are router related

Well i did restarted my router(i always do that since i got my defy) and i have a Wireless G router it has no other option .:confused:

[Defy General] Compass Linux:
Do you have a Titanium Backup of your system?

If so, reload your wifi configuration. I had problems with wifi too not finding any networks, and restoring it fixed things.

Compass.
[Defy General] GaganPla:
even i had same problem but this method fix my problem .... here is the solution ...

The problem is that the defy is getting an IP address from your router and holding on to it. If a new device comes onto the network it will try to reassign you an IP but the defy will not allow, still wanting the old IP address.

The Fix is to create a static IP address. Go into settings .....wireles nd network ...wifi settings.....click menu and then advanced and click use static IP address....now look up your dns server, gateway and netmask and set the corresponding fields in your defy settings.

I hope this helps becuase I was banigng my head over the table for 3 days trying to fix this.

Oh and u have to turn static off when you use your wifi at another location.... ;)

[Networking] monkeychef:
Hi everyone,

So my family got a great deal on a wireless plan on Sprint, and I have a friend (and his family) that would like to switch over to Sprint if they can pay around the same amount. His current plan is:

700 minutes

Phone 1-5000 texts

Phone 2-nothing special

Phone 3-nothing special

=$100

He would like to go to this:

At least 700 minutes (free mobile to mobile)

Phone 1-Everything unlimited with android smartphone

Phone 2-nothing special (maybe texting)

Phone 3-nothing special (maybe texting)

= less that $130

I know that some people that work at sprint are on the forums here, and I wanted to know if they could tell me if this was possible at all. My friend really wants a smartphone, but if he changes his plan on Verizon they will F*** him in the ass on pricing. His family is also sick of the random charges on the bill.

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] hajjat:
Hi,

I had a project done on HTC Touch Vogue (6900) sprint phone with Android ROM.

However, because its processor and RAM are darn slow I decided to get a Nexus S phone and run the same project on it.

It turned out that the code of the project is very dependent on HTC Touch and it never got to work on Nexus S :(

Is there a way to make Nexus S behave exactly the same way as an HTC Touch (same boot process, no 4g, EDVO, etc)?

I'm sure the one(s) who prepared Android ROM's for HTC Touch would be able to help :confused:

Thanks!

Sprint Galaxy s2 i9000. Rooted it this afternoon and installed wrong version of Clockwork Mod Recovery. Did factory reset from Samsung menu, which trapped me in bootloop hell for a couple hours. Fixed that. Re-rooted device and re-installed Clockwork Mod. I get the yellow triangle. Rom Manager now tells me that I last flashed Clockwork Mod 2.5.1.2. Have uninstalled and reinstalled both Rom Manager and Superuser and done date wipes in application menu. ROM Manager can't find Superuser. Would like to get a ROM to work, at some point.

I've looked around but got no direct answer

Is there a way to get the social+ widget on another launcher without rooting?

For rooted phones from what I read you just put the deodex in system apps and I'm guessing that's inaccessible unless the phone is rooted but does it have to be there

It can't be sideloaded and installed another way?

And is there an alternative to this widget?

Please don't suggest that I root my phone

However, I have a real problem, from time to time I have for network cuts, I explain: the bar(helm) of network belongs to the max, however the persons call me and fall on the answering machine, I do not receive SMS / mms and those whom I send remain in her(it) limp with sending.

To remedy it, it is necessary either I restart, or I toggle in mode(fashion) plane then what I iron in normal mode.

I specify that I have one x10 mini under Cyanogen who has no this problem, I am on the same operator and there are no concerns(marigolds). The problem cannot thus result from the operator but well telephone.

Can you help me svp? Because to continue, I would regrettably be to oblige to kidnap Cyanogen what would disturb me.

Have you set the appropriate radio firmware, with the baseband switcher app?

It should be installed by default, just pick the correct radio for your country.. :)

Hope that helps
[Defy General] John974:
Yes but I come from Reunion I don't have the correct radio for my country...
[Defy General] TimelesslyPrecise:
If you do some searching, i'm sure you can find out what band frequencies your carrier is using... For instance, 850mhz, 2100mhz...

Maybe directly by calling support, or try using google.com.

When/if you find out what freq, you can go through and test which similar radios from the switcher app will work for you..

Your best starting place is to start testing each radio, and write down which ones work for you, and which ones don't..

Hope this helps

Edit:

Of course you would want to make a backup first...

then feel freely to switch between radios and reboot to test.

Hi,

I Would like to Root My Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. Currently It is upgraded to Froyo (build Number: FROYO.UVKB5), which i did via mini kies on June.

By Default the set was network locked and i Unlocked it from a store.

I would like to know how can i root the device without hassling too much.

Will i lose all my content of phone if i root it?

When i got the set, it was network unlocked; but after master resetting it was stuck into VIBRANT Screen, that's why i gave it to a store and they unlocked it.

I am unsure whether the device will be brick again if i root it.

I have checked the noob guide thread, But my confusion is I already have a Folder on my internal SD Card called update (1.7mb) & a folder called Vibrant_AOSPish_JK2_v1.1 (156mb). See attached snapshot

I installed titanium backup application, but its saying it required ROOT access.

Would appreciate if anyone can suggest me a way to resolve it
