I was once asking same question and I have tried I think all keyboards out there, but with my big fingers I still couldn't find one that I could text easily with until I found the original HTC keyboard ported to this phone.

Trust me, I can type really accurate and fast in portrait mode with it. IMO Swype and the other slide keyboards suck. I want control of what I want to write, and the HTC keyboard is perfect.

every one settles in and finds there favorite. i personally like Better Keyboard. it used to be on the google market but now its on the amazon app store. if you have the amazon app on your phone search "better keyboard 8" or here is a link to there website http://amzn.com/B005HZJ0QS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] samrozzi:
so thanks distant. so far loving the HTC keyboard. its responsive. simple and clean.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] random45:
htc ime mod and swiftkey x are both very good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
Tried everything and settled with "SwiftKey X" hands down due to its predictions technology. It will predict your next word before you lay a finger on it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
swifty key is the best IMO

saves you ton of keystrokes

instead of just predicting words as you type, it actually predicts words that you'll be typing next (using past text and facebook notes you typed)

Thumb Keyboard is best if you're a grammar nazi. :p

It auto corrects "Im" to "I'm" and it's a hassle to hold down whatever button it is to select the "'", so yeah. Oh, and Thumb Keyboard also has tons of themes (like 30 of them). It's a paid app, but I got it on Amazon one day when it was free. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Odom Project:
+1 for thumb keyboard. I personally don't like "smart" keyboards, and thumb keyboard is perfect for me. As long as you're close it will correct perfectly, is highly configureable, has many good themes, and let's me type quickly and efficiently. I originally bought it for my Acer iconia, needing a new keyboard solution, and love it on my phone too! Their split design works great on our device, the arrow keys are handy, and I can say from experience that the developer will work with you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nickcash:
Thumb keyboard, hands down. Corrects everything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jase1783:
+1 Thumb Keyboard is the best
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
lol i doubt i corrects everything

what about if u use slang when u text?

but with thumb keyboard, u still have to type out all the letters basically? or does it have predictions too?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nickcash:
Well you can add slang and then it will correct it. OK it corrects like 99%. Still, its awesome. Good themes and options.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I've been a swiftkey X fan for a long time, great keyboard. But I've been using thumb keyboard for a couple of days now amd it's definitely faster/responsive than swiftkey. So for me thumb is the choice atm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
well theres no harm in trying it,but theres no free trial?

15min is not long enough for me to test it

im still faithful with swiftkey x for now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
I thought Thumb Keyboard is for tablets???

Going to try it... Are all these positive feedback for phone or tablets?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
It offers for both, phone and tablet. So phone for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
It has prediction.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
I too got it from amazon, never installed it ... after reading this I tried it and it SUX...

Lol, just kidding. I like it,been using it for about 20mins, this far here is my quick impression:

Thumb Keyboard vs. Swiftkey X

Thumb is better at auto correction

Swiftkey is slightly better at prediction, reason for advantage is because it predicts before typing, however thumbk gives more predictions as soon as you start typing.

Overall: they are both good but I give an edge to thumb keyboard especially if you own an Android tablet ... winner thumb keyboard :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
well i looked at the pics on the product page and it seems to be a great keyboard for a tablet, since you can split the keyboard

wondering i should buy it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:

I've been very impressed with the t959's ability to run games but I'm starting to see some stuttering on some of the newer titles, so .... What is the best rom and/or kernel for gaming?

I'm currently running Bi-Winning V3 EDT with the default Bullet kernel, but haven't overclocked yet, if that makes any difference.

Suggestions?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattb6288:
overclocking makes a big difference. it can increase fps by 10-15.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haints:
Thanks for responding! How safe is it? Do I have to mess with voltage too? What kind of overclock are you running, if you are running one?

Thanks! I'll try that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
Cm7 is best imo

I run legend of zelda ocarina very smoothly on it... if you need even more, you can get glitch kernel and oc up to 1.7ghz... if you still stutter, your in the wrong century

I have a desktop computer that i want to use as a dedicated remote desktop server for my phone. I want to set it at native 800x480 160dpi or something similar and be able to use it over my 3g connection anywhere. This pc will be used as a bittorrent machine and media server for both my phone and home network plus any other cool uses i can think of later. What i need to know is what is the best app to use so that i have a native touchscreen like interface from my phone.

[Epic 4G Apps] xplus93:
does it allow you to use it like a touchscreen computer, as in being able to click on something by just tapping it? also how well does it fill the screen?
[Epic 4G Apps] xopher.hunter:
Phonemypc is a great app. I used it to root/rom my friends samsung charge who lives in maryland and I live in california. And yes it is like a touchscreen computer that you can zoom in on and holding an item on the screen performs a right click. I used to "obtain" it from the internet but since then it has been updated so much I bought it to support their efforts (it is expensive at 10 dollars though)

There are a couple paid apps for this on getjar for free. I don't recall what they are off hand, but it may be worthwhile to look!
[Epic 4G Apps] Milkman00:
I use logmein. It is free to use on your server, but the client (Logmein Ignition) app cost money for your phone. I like it because it keeps your stuff secure (no direct expoure to the outside world, since no port forwarding is required), plus I already had it installed on my other PCs.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aknipp:
Your GTab will have the 1.1 branch or 1.2 (likely 1.2 if you recently bought it new). There are a bunch of ROMs you can install, I like the Honeycomb Flashback (still in an alpha state but working well).

I am running a CM9 Build on my Droid 2 right now, based on EncounterICS. The camera doesn't work, and there are some bugs with orientation sensing, and they keyboard, but in general, the ROM works great. I love the new Google Apps for ICS, and battery life is enormously improved over the CM 7.x builds. Performance is also excellent. Everything runs smoothly, graphics acceleration works great, and the task manager is fast and snappy. If they don't finish the D2 build officially, I am sure the community will; it's just too promising to give up on!
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeeperOfThePizza:
So my dad was complaining about his battery life, how it only lasts 3 hours. We got him a replacement and he's still complaining. I do not use WP7 phones. I'm more of android and really never explored the WP7 world. Is there any advice you can give?

What he does on the phone,

He calls people often, Spends time on the phone. Email. Low amount of texting, I'm trying to explain to him that for one he has it set to auto brightness which doesnt help and that with the screen size he has doesn't really help the matter in days usage. Also he's always connected to WiFi (not sure if that helps, but with android it does)

I disabled location, Auto Sync, set brightness to medium and he's complain he barely gets 3 hours out of the damn phone. I told him he needs a bigger battery. From what I've seen as far as Battery size at stock for the HD7 it's like 1100, which seems rather low. I told him I'd get him a much bigger battery which would help.

Your thoughts? greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayxGee1:
Did you check his email/s sync settings? If he has multiple accounts that sync every 15mins, that can drain battery pretty quickly. If he is on wifi all the time, then disable 3G. Make sure apps don't run in the background. Make sure he closes out every application. And yes, and extended battery will help. And just for a little fun, this hasn't been proven, but having a black wallpaper may improve battery life.

Personally, my HD7S will last 2 days. I have brightness on low, manually sync email accounts. I have wifi on and play music all day. Is he running mango?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irrdial:
My HD7 lasts 2-3 days, depending on use. There is obviously something wrong with your dad's battery, firmware or something.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjku:
this happened with me too.

I just turned off "show open wifi networks".

It vastly improved battery life.

I don't remember doing anything else.

Let us know if that solves the issue.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tfn:
Rogue Apps from the market can cause battery drain.

I had one such and it made the battery die in less then 5 hours.

I did a hard reset just to be sure and then all was well and made sure I did not install that app ( cant remember which one it was , but it was a receipe one)

ALso if you are away from wifi its best to turn it off as otherwise it will keep scanning for wifi all the time hence draining the battery.

Generally the HTC battery is weak mine dosen't last more than 8 hours with normal use
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wheresmybeaver:
+1 on the advice here

I can get a full day (7am to 11pm) from my HD7 without constantly having to turn on / off Wifi. I would typically have emails set to check every half hour, including weather etc. I make a few calls and send a good number of texts, run a few apps etc. If the battery is under pressure at some point I'll just turn off Wifi. If I'm travelling abroad and I don't want to Roam, I will turn off data naturally but I will also turn off 3G to save extra battery.

If I want to squeeze another hour or two out of the battery when I'm away from a charger I will turn the battery saver on. Automatic brightness should be fine as well; no need to set it to the dimmest setting all day.

The biggest battery killer is if you have your email set to check constantly; set it to 15 or 30 minutes and you will get an amazing improvement in battery life.

I should also mention that my HD7 is just over a year old, so I ordered a new battery for it recently which has definitely helped. New batteries are quite cheap and make a big difference. It's also handy to have the old battery in the bag just in case of emergency.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jelliottz:
Pick up an Anker 1350mah replacement battery. I bought one and gained about 15-25% better life depending on usuage. I have 3 push email accounts, FB, Twitter, and Link'din all synced. I get between 5-9 hours of heavy use. 1+ day on the weekend when it's not getting bombarded with work calls and email.

If he can reduce the refresh rate on emails, this will extend the battery greatly. Good luck.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
Dies the setting as items arrive under email account drain the battery?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foxnov1990:
Sorry for hyjacking this thread but I have issues too with the low battery duration of my HD7.

Tried the email advice with no luck, when I put it in before I head to bed and take it out in the morning (around 7am) it doesn't even last till after till after dinner (around 6PM), during which I haven't even done much due to not having time as I'm in class.

But then I read this "hard reset" which I've just done but what is the best thing to do, performing a Hard Reset and

- restoring to the last saved point (which was a few days back due to the 7740 Tethering update)

or

- updating the phone and installing every single app manually again?

Havent found info about this anywhere on the forums, everyone just says "hard reset" but after that there are still 2 options to consider ;)

Thanks.

I did the same, the Anker battery is good. With e-mail updates hourly (not push as I can sync as I need) and medium voice use, I'm getting 36 hours from a charge.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Dread 7us:
This is an app you can run from your rooted phone to odex your framework and system apps (has option to also odex data/app but its not recommended). The app will automatically remove classes.dex from each apk as well. I've tested this on shift deck and cm7 ROMs also works on og evo. There's no test on the app so if you run it and you're already odex or not on a compatible ROM or whatnot; its still going to run.. It was originally made for the evo shift but it has been tested successfully on the Evo on kush deck rom and CM7 nightlies (it checks to see if its a shift or original evo and mounts accordingly). This is for Gingerbread AOSP ROMs and hasn't been tested on sense (bootclasspath is different so it's likely it will not work).

Make sure you have a fresh nand before using, just in case.

Recommended usage: Press button "Odex System Framework". Let it do its thing then press "Odex System Apps" (be patient, takes several minutes to complete). While running, don't interrupt it.

Other option "Odex Framework + System Apps" works fine as well but not as safe as running separately.

"Odex Data Apps" isn't recommended, its an option I put in but I don't even use.

Always remember, you must odex framework before system/apps!

Keep in mind, apps are going to force close while the script is running. Also dalvik cache is deleted when it goes through system/apps so when it reboots; you will likely have to setup your widgets again and may have to sign back into gapps.

Big thanks to Dodgejcr for help with the script.

Download: Odexer version 1.0

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] theidlemonk:
Does this odex sense based roms as well? This sounds good though.

edit: dang it...should've paid more attention to the post got my answer... question: do you plan to make a deodexer as well...just curious.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Dread 7us:
I've never tried to be honest. As I said in the OP, I don't think it will but if someone wants to try (and make a nand first) that would be cool. At least report back and let us know lol.

Edit: deodexing would be an ideal option however it takes java commands to deodex an app with baksmali so unfortunately its not an option. For example: java -jar baksmali.jar -x :nameofjar.odex and those commands can't be run on the phone.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] linsalata28:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tommytomatoe:
Good job man. Previously I've accomplished this with bash scripts. I'd like to see where this goes. Like option to search for bootclasspath and automatically use the it, instead of having a dedicated one (which limits the app). Good job :-)

Edit. If you are interested, I can make this work on Sense.

Edit 2. Man. This has me really intrigued now :-) I looked through the app. One more thing that needs to be implemented is the removal of classes.dex. Once Odexed, you don't need classes.dex. It simply takes up space.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Dread 7us:
Classes.dex is automatically removed. Also, I'm planning on adding the option to select an apk to odex (individually) and thinking about finding the bootclasspath maybe by looking in init.rc but that's a thought.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] tommytomatoe:
Great man. I must have missed where classes.dex gets removed.

It won't be a bad idea to add single apk odex. It never hurts to have more options.
