[Nokia Lumia 800] lekhwani:
No way. Even if it had a 4" screen, I would not have thought of buying this and selling my one month old focus which I bought for 250$. Lumia 800 is now $585, as I read somewhere.

My focus is already far superior than this 800. Yesterday only I showed this phone to my cousin. And she told me to tell its price as $700 to others just to show off. None will doubt it.

If you put 800 and focus side by side, none will doubt that focus is costlier.

Apart from an extra navigation app, focus has pluses like upgradeable to 40 GB, 4" screen smoled. I think my focus is an upgrade over this 800.

And going from focus to 800 is just a downgrade and that too by paying additional loss of $350-400. Its utterly ridiculous.
[Nokia Lumia 800] vangrieg:
How do you know that? 800 has much better materials, a supposedly better screen (there were mentions about it after looking at both phones side by side), and a much more appealing design.

Also, you are comparing subsidized and open market prices.
[Nokia Lumia 800] species5618w:
Unless it's below $100 contract free, then no. I will wait for WP8 and even then wouldn't get a new phone if my Quantum can be upgraded to wp8. wp7 is very smooth on 1G processor, I see little reason to move to better hardware. Maybe switch to focus if it's a equal trade.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MartyLK:
I prefer the Focus design more than the 800. I love holding my Focus, it feels good in the hand and looks good to behold. The display is outstanding and an excellent compliment to the style of WP7.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Peew971:
First thing first, a 24 months contract is never worth it. You're better off paying part of the phone and get a shorter contract.

That aside I don't think any of the new phones is worth an upgrade unless you're desperate for a front facing camera, in which case Nokia is out of the equation. All the first gen phones run Mango well, there are no apps or games that necessitate a faster processor, the cameras are fine, really I can't see a valid reason to upgrade. Only larger internal storage would be worth an upgrade and it can now only come from the Focus S which I doubt very much will happen.

Keep your upgrade option in the air for when a proper phone arrives, I know it's hard because there's that desire to get something new and shiny but all thing considered it's not worth it, especially on a 24 months contract.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sa3ad:
well , i have an Omnia 7 and i am happy with it.

for me to upgrade i will wait for a

NOKIA

(windows os 7.5 OR 8)WITH :

DUAL CORES PROCESSOR

2 cameras

java

4 LTE
[Nokia Lumia 800] dkp1977:
Java? You'll have to wait a loooooong time then. ;)

It is not made of metal to quote mobilechoiceuk

"Unlike these powerhouses, it’s not made of aluminium, but of a matt, rubbery plastic that feels surprisingly lightweight. It doesn’t feel cheap "

I think metal would of been cool but with a phone this sexy i dont care but if your not obssessed by the looks upgrade after a year are never big steps. I personally would shoot my mother for one in blue though.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MartyLK:
They're probably talking about the bendable Nokia phone, not the 800. The 800 is the same as the N9 and the N9 is all aluminum.
[Nokia Lumia 800] brummiesteven:
Not always true, I got a free HTC Desire (on Launch, ~£450 unlocked) for £25 a month on a 24 month contract. 600 Minutes, Unlimited Texts and 3gb Internet.

That's £600 over 2 years.

I use on average 500 texts a month which, on PAYG (10p a text) would cost £50 a month so I'm not even fully paying for the services I use let alone the handset itself (I did ofc go on to sell the handset for an Omnia 7 but that's a different story).
[Nokia Lumia 800] lqaddict:
They both are made of polycarbonate.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MartyLK:
Wow, it is. Just read a review saying as much. Screw Nokia. They now have nothing special to offer. The metal construction they've always had prior to the N9 is gone.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Peew971:
My point is handsets are released at a fast pace nowadays and not all of them get updated, it's not exactly a question of price. The 2nd gen WP7 devices are barely upgrades on the 1st ones so what's the point of getting tied now for 2 years when we know other devices will be released in 2012 (HTC with Beats and Nokia phones should come before Apollo)?

I'm not saying you should always wait for better but in this case there's little difference between what's coming out now and what came out last year, it's not like upgrading from an iPhone 3GS to an iPhone 4 for instance.
[Nokia Lumia 800] blanket:
c'mon nokia, throw us keyboarded guys a WP7 flavoured E7, will u?
[Nokia Lumia 800] satchef1:
Just in case you've misunderstood, this isn't your run-of-the-mill plastic construction. The N9 and Lumia 800 are crafted from a single piece of polycarbonate that's coloured right the way through. I wouldn't say it's worse than metal, just different. Construction is still solid, feel is still high-quality. If anything it should be lighter and more hard-wearing (scratches won't show up as badly with their chosen material).
[Nokia Lumia 800] lumpaywk:
i hear you on this one. When i first pointed it out i didnt think it a negative in fact more of a posative. has said it isnt just some normal plastic it should feel a lot more modern then a metal phone as well as having better signal. Metal also slides in my hand this will be a lot more comfortable to use.
[Nokia Lumia 800] hwangeruk:
Marty, you're such a hater.

Polycarbonate is an interesting material, and the magenta and black Lumia 800s look fantastic. Like most people, the specs aren't a big enough jump - and Mango hasn't nailed my current handset and make me "need" to upgrade.

But the Lumia looks lovely, and the 8M pixel camera (and a review of its low light ability) might make me get one. Plus the built in Navigation.
[Nokia Lumia 800] giodelgado:
I have been using Nokia for a long time now, my most current device it's the N8 and to tell you the truth i think Elop was right stating this is the first "real" WP, this device goes far beyond tech specs or screen sizes.

Just look at the quality control Nokia has and their build quality, the screen uses almost no battery (see Nokia Sleeping Screen), a very original design compared to HTC that uses almost the same as their Androids.

A big letdown was the use of bluetooth 2.1 instead of 3.0 like on my N8 but it doesn't really matter because WP has an integrated assistant but still 3.0 uses less power also not having a front facing camera that is going to be used in the future with Skype in WP.

If WP isn't about specs then why not choose Nokia???

I've never had this probably with another phone before, but I can only remember doing this once or twice. I'm trying to adb pull one of my paid apps (Hotschedules for my job) from my Bionic and push it to my Eris to try to debug why it won't show up in the market on my Eris. I know the app is in /data/app-private but I can't even ls data. I get the output:

-8235:~$ adb shell ls data

opendir failed, Permission denied

do I need to do a chmod or something?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tivo7:
Try putting "su " before your pull code if you're in adb shell already (if not, get there).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] lemonoid:
but I shouldn't go into a remote shell for pushing and pulling files should I? I wouldn't even know how I just know the adb push [local] [remote] and adb pull [remote] [local] syntax ... I mean I know how to go into a shell but not pushing and pulling files in it because then I would be in the android filesystem. so should I adb shell su and then adb shell pull ?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tivo7:
You normally don't have to, no. But whenever there's permission issues, su usually fixes it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tucamsam:
I have been looking around and messing with different kernels for the SGS2E4GT (pauses for breath) and I've noticed that most of the stock kernels have directions for flashing via Odin, but I was wondering if these kernels would be possible to flash via CWM as well...I've noticed that most of these compressed flashable files have this zImage file inside (sorry about my lack of knowledge...I've been in webOS-land the last couple years and have just started learning about Android, so this is probably standard practice)...do I just need to take a stock zImage file from the .tar file and compress it in .zip form to flash it in CWM?

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for loss, damages or any other kind of issue that can arise from installing any of these files.

I looked and looked for a Modern Warfare 3 theme for Swype, but I had no luck so I made my own. I think it looks bad ass.

First I want to say thank you to hoey2011 for the info on Swype Themes at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=758816

Not sure why, but this theme will only work on Swype 2.29.71, and you must have Swype.apk in /system/app/ for MetaMorph to work.

You can go to hoey2011's thread at the above link if you don't know how to find it.

For this to work you will need to have a rooted phone and download MetaMorph, which you can find on the Market Place. You will also need to get into your files once Morph is done. I like the ES File Explorer from the Market Place. After you have those installed, download and put the StockGreen.zip file and the MW3.zip file to sdcard. At this point make sure you are not using the Swype keyboard.

Now open MetaMorph and click on "Unzip/Extract new theme" find and open the MW3.zip first and click "Apply all". Now do the same thing with the StockGreen.zip. Now click "Pick existing theme" and go to StockGreen and click on .xml file and again click "Apply all".( for some reason you need to do this twice)

Exit out of MetaMorph and open file explorer. Go to /sdcard/AndroidThemes/StockGreen/Swype/assets/ and delete the keyboards folder. Now go to /sdcard/AndroidThemes/MW3/Swype/assets/ and copy the keyboards folder and paste it in /sdcard/AndroidThemes/StockGreen/Swype/assets/.

Reboot phone and now you should have MW3 theme Swype.

I will add screen shots soon.

Making this theme for Swype 3.6.84 now. This will be able to flash with CWM to make things easier on everybody.

If anyone is interested in this I will post the zip file when I'm done.

[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
yeah if you used psouza's debloat script, you must run the rebloat script. if that doesnt work, you may try a factory restore, then download the 5.6.890 update right off the bat. you should also read up a bit. Im not sure what cocked rom is, or french room (maybe you meant rom here too). You have to make sure the rom is for the D3!

i restor bloat verizon.

DoubleYouPee told me too Update first. Ok ( How ?) : I can download the update file but i can't instal it !!

I factory restore, but the same result i can't instale update !!!!

I dont know May be because I m still rooted ?

Please Help me to update first after i will looking for a new rom ...
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
ah, my apologies. Im unfamiliar with language support. As for getting the update, you can be rooted when you do the update, but you will have to reroot. At this point, if you've done the m+power and used recovery and still unable to accept the OTA, you might try to wipe data/cache or sbf. Maybe AndroidSims would know, can you SBF from 959 to .890? I would say you could do that, but not from .890 back to 959. Dont hold me to that though. If thats the case, I would sbf using rsd.
[Motorola Droid 3] TTBA:
Soo

the same result , uptate download but not instale !!!! ( after wipe data/cache)

i dont know haw to do now, i soo stress...

[HTC Sensation] DMX804:
hi all, im a super noob. this sensation was the first ever phone i rooted. and i currently just flashed a bricked kernel on here being that the original sense-o-maniac rom i had flashed wasnt overclocked. this new kernel allowed me to overclock cpu to over 1.8ghz.

i also have a tmobile sensation (currently using unlocked bell sensation) that i have laying around waiting for a buyer. & after i flashed the new kernel, i decided to do a speed test on both to compare the upgrade on my phone. i had both running on the same wifi & went to the same youtube video. & to my surprise, both phones ran at the exact same speed.

i was wondering why both phones was running at the same speed?? if i have an overclocked kernel on my phone, shouldnt my phone be running faster??

anyone out there can shed some light on this matter would be great. Im a noob so, any answer would be greatly appreciated. thanks for reading my post & have a great day!! :)
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
well simply put would be no...

You would have to install a cpu controller like oc daemon or set cpu to overclock your device in order to reach those speeds.

although even when you set it to max 1.8, or how ever much your device can handle (most 1.78, anything above that it crashes). it only means that your device will reach that speed max if needed, so is to not fry the brain. that doesnt mean at all that your device will be performing at that speed constantly. that would eat battery and probably a chip or two.

there is also the topic of govenors and how they effect your device performance.

and its all about the combination of rom + kernel that will ultimately show the improvements. some kernels will automatically slow a phone down to unusable speeds.

lets just say you were lucky to experience a compatible kernel with no side effects.

Yeah, I just started a thread on this and worked it out. Go to Settings> Applications>Running Services then click the "All" tab. Scroll down to TwLauncher and clear the data. This will reset your icons, so make a note what you have and where, and once it's setup, it should be good. Worked for me.

Also, does this happen when you either clear memory our reboot phone? If so this should do it. Let us know how you went.

[General Questions and Answers] TrueXdaNoob:
Yes its possible

Of course, all though I think you're gonna have to reflash the original ROM and start over again.

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------

1. Go into cwm recovery and go to mount sd.

2. Once mounted, download the original stock rom (search stock rom u8150 on google and look for it on filecrop, mediafire, etc) , extract the file.

3. Make a file on the root of your SD called "dload". Move "UPDATE.APP" from the extracted files to "dload".

4. Turn off phone, hold red key, volume up and power until it boots and says "updating firmware".

5.Done!
