[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] vicmora5:
Really buggy phone..There's a lot of bugs and glitches and although you may experience less bugs with the custom roms its not much better. Frequent force closures and lags are what I experience regularly,occasional reboots too. The only thing I really love about this phone is the keyboard. Other than that nothing too special..
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] GuestK0045:
I get fc to but remeber he needs a reliable texting phone idt he going to need it as. Gaming phone, or have it as his main phone
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] vicmora5:
Messaging app force closes too tho.

I dont use it for gaming or anything crazy like that either. So its not like Im working the phone too hard.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yoyowhatup22:
i bought mine used about a month ago, after a week it started getting laggy (before then never had any FC btw) switched to Gingerclone v2 all lag is gone, only FC i get is when restarting launcher pro. reception is good, better then my mothers Samsung smiley (we live in the boonies) supposedly someone on here was getting 20-30 hours out of their sk, i get 12-16 hours though. sound Q is alright, iv never heard a phone speaker that blew my mind though. KB Quality is good, very responsive, only gripe about it is that it only allows 2 inputs at once, (i play alot of Emulators.)

This is my first android phone, love it so far, sure its got some bugs, and is laggy stock, but its keyboard redeems those.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] dw9906:
DO NOT BUY THE SIDEKICK! YOU'LL REGRET IT!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] HC13:
well this is my second android phone. i had the mytouch 3g. and i got to say this is way better.. the physical keyboard is great. and it lags less than the mytouch.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yoyowhatup22:
Any particular reason your saying that? This guy needs feedback.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] dw9906:
PROS: Nice keyboard, fairly good battery life, that's about it.

CONS:

Very buggy, unresponsive touchscreen at times, freezes, not much development, bad layout of buttons, no support, etc.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lintfiend:
dw9906 basically has it.

The touchscreen bug is annoying, but it is the best keyboard on t-mobile ATM.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] beauTOICHI:
There are some bugs on this phone but like everyone keeps saying, it has a great keyboard. And once you root and install a custom rom (I'd suggest anything by ayoteddy i.e. gingerclone or overdose) most of the bugs and issues are resolved.

As far as I'm concerned, for a phone without true gingerbread yet, the sk4g is worth it.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Klieuless:
I don't know if you've ever owned the sidekick LX but that was one of the main reasons I got one.. Extremely fast texting, and all but like others said, the phone could be much better. Development is picking up (from what i've noticed) and looks to be promising. To be honest, i was a little disappointed when I first picked it up (due to the laggyness)

and it is my first android as well, but things should pick up. Hopefully.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKickstand:
can some one please explain to me what different radios do and what would the best radio for me be, i live in worcester county of MA if that helps
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dclaw_fantum:
Newer radios address field issues that didn't show during testing or previous versions, such as poor signal lock and constant network switching. Each device will react differently depending on location (due to tower density, environmental conditions and signal interference), chip quality and carrier.

The radio software can have a dramatic affect on battery drainage, connection loss and connection speed. If the radio boosts the signal gain to have a better connection, the battery will suffer. The radio in your phone controls more than just your cellular connection. It does WiFi and Bluetooth too.

With the original glacier radio, my Bluetooth would disconnect every time my phone switched APs on a WiFi network. This was very annoying while walking around at work and streaming music to my Bluetooth headset. For some reason the radio software reset all wireless transmissions when switching APs. After it connected to the new AP, it would reconnect to my Bluetooth. The panache radio helped address this issue.

A radio update may also be used to increase the data speed. If a software limiter was implemented, it can be lifted allowing for maximum speed throughput. More likely, the software is revised to optimize packet handling.

It is very important to know that flashing a radio on this device carries a very serious risk of brick. By following the instructions in the radio threads, you minimize the risk, but it is not eliminated. I would recommend you do not flash the radio unless it is necessary.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKickstand:
+1 thank you so much! ^_^
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbutt:
idk if you've ever flashed a diff radio or not, but if you'd like, mackster248 has a great video tutorial on flashing radios for the mt4g on youtube.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] akizz:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] markdj57:
Yes,

You can register your Samsung at www.samsung.com

And you can track your phone at www.samsungdive.com

You need to have logged into and enabled the Samsung remote tracking first though, otherwise Plan B can be remotely installed even if you don't have the Lookout Security (which I think is unnecessary).

[How To] Put, Start AT&T Samsung Galaxy S2 (SII) Into Recovery Mode or ClockWorkMod

1). Turn off your phone

2). Grip the phone with both hands on each side (there’s a reason)

3). Get ready. Now, press and HOLD the volume up and down button and the power at the same time and HOLD…..

4). KEEP HOLDING because the screen will flash and you might see a screen that says Samsung Galaxy SII GT I9100 and an yellow exclamation point. KEEP HOLDING…

5). The screen will flash a second time the GT I9100 screen and when it does LET GO AFTER THAT.

I know no one cares, but I traded my NS4G and $ for the EVO 3D when it came out. I knew as soon as I turned it on that it was a mistake. Well, I bought another NS4G off barnacles10 and now I'm back over here. The development on the Evo 3D has died considerably and many people jumped shipped. That's not why I left though. There are some things about the 3D that I liked, but I really missed the NS4G. Now, let's hope Sprint gets the Galaxy Nexus. I'll be eligible for an upgrade on Nov. 1st, but I'll be saving my upgrade for the Galaxy Nexus especially since Sprint did away with yearly upgrades.

Thanks for the suggestion. I love the speed of this ROM. I miss the theme chooser on CM7 though. I'm not going back to CM just yet, but if I can't figure out how to theme the status bar icons like ics, I might have to go back to CM until we get the ICS upgrade for out phone and someone gets us a stock rooted ICS.

[Nexus S General] housry23:
I never said the Nexus was better than the 3D. The 3D boots up in seconds with an AOSP ROM on it. The 3D is by far superior hardware, I just got sick of the stale development and the little kid games. When toastcfh gets all the bugs worked out and the 3D gets to RC and nightly stage, I might go back. I haven't decided yet. I do know I have an upgrade tomorrow, but I am saving it for when/if Sprint gets the Galaxy Nexus.

Is there a FAST way to switch between active applications? i came from WebOS and found switching apps the way it does extremely easy and fast, i am wondering if there's a way to do something similar in android.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] huggosz:
Just hold the home button and you can switch between your recent opened applications.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dante501:
An app called swipe pad. It can be found in the market. Allows you to open up 12 apps of your choosing to open up whenever. Sounds good?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aqualadb03:
Of course, holding the home button you will see your recently used apps and can effectivly swotcj between them.

I like Swipe pad cuz wave launcher gets in the way when dismissing you're notification bar
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TylerMF:
I also really enjoy swipe pad. It's what I used before I switched to wave launcher. It's a great app, but personally I just like the feel and the way it handles better on wave launcher. And you can turn that setting off for the notifications thing in the options btw. I think it under a setting called something like "close notification on gesture area tap" or something. I don't like that feature either, so I just leave it turned off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] scuzzbag87:
Yea I know u can turn it off but I like the gesture area in the top right corner

i would get wave launcher but i dont want to start spending money on apps yet.

i'm using swipe pad with bottom swipe up (like webos) and have the task manager right above the samsung logo so i can quickly get to task manager and switch between tasks. good work around
[General Questions and Answers] lilfellabob:
I' finding that my galaxy S2 is unlocking in my pocket regularly and changing settings, calling people and opening apps. This is very bad for obvious reasons and I'm looking for a solution.. I currently have resorted to having a passcode to unlock but it's less than ideal. I don't like the pattern idea much either - this isn't to stop people getting into my phone (I'd like people to be able to) it's to stop my pocket unlocking the phone.

I was hoping there was something similar to pattern unlock - a shape unlock. So instead of sliding across to unlock you slide through a circle or something instead..

Any suggestions?

The Elite Blade_Rom 2.3.5 seems to be an excellent version of the official 2.3.5.

According to the XDA rules, user discussions should be here under Blade General and not under Blade Android Development.

My experience is good. I re-partitioned ROM before installling, giving plenty of memory for apps.

ZTE Dialer and LauncherPro are included. The only thing I miss on Elite Blade is a circle battery mod. I got one from Huexxx that works fine. I don't know if that file is posted anywhere, but I can send copies of my file on request.

6. Read the fine prints on the rom page

7. Partitioned SD to the instructions (recovery)

8. Transfered roms to new SD partion

9. Flashed rom + fix + kernel (recovery)

I have 2 problems with this rom.

1 - Lots of apps dont allow to move to sd (in CM7 it was possible), like "Whats App, Circle Launcher, Handcent, iGO8", etc

2 - When writing SMS, it goes very slow in the input. In the beguining of the text it goes fast, but after about 100 chars, it gets really slow. Not only with default app but also with handcent. One time i read it was because of char count... Maybe is swiftkey keyboard...
