Evo 3D is seriously overpriced. Are you sure you are ready to spend 35K on what is essentially a gimmick? That apart, the phone itself is pretty good. Same goes for Sensation, which is a good phone in itself. (Although there are quality issues, like the touch screen stops responding, the headphone jack stops working etc - There ARE fixes available, detailed on XDA itself, but when I spend 30K on a phone, I would expect better quality). Besides, with a budget of 28-30K, I would definitely pick the Galaxy S2 over the Sensation. There's probably a reason why it's among the worlds best selling high end phones, and the Sensation is nowhere close to it.

Of that 3 you just listed, I would pick the Desire HD, simply because it's good Value for money (It *should* be, I am not too sure what the price of one is anymore. I *think* the Incredible S replaced it, so availability can be an issue), and, it has one of the strongest dev communities here on XDA without doubt.
[Wildfire General] androidino95:
Id go with titan any time. With a phone like that, who needs developing, youll get updates. Android on the other side is evolving fast and your phone will get outdated soon.

Personally, i like wp7 more than android (tested it on hd2)
[Wildfire General] calyxim:
I would wait for a couple of months. Prices will drop significantly with the ICS releases.

If you can't wait just get an HTC with android. So you can have a chance to choose between sense and aosp. desire s makes sense. shouldn't depreciate much in value.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wah007:
Hello guys,

I just wanted to know if anyone knows if the UK version Razr and the US version Droid Razr are designed differently?

I can see that that the US version has a 2mp front camera and a shorter battery life and the UK version has a 1.3mp front camera and longer battery life.

I am just asking because alot of people are reporting problems so I thought if they have different builds then their problems will be different.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Charusen:
As per the Motorola Spec sheets, even the US Droid Razr has a 1.3MP Front Camera.

Only the GSM and CDMA radios make the difference. See link to Motorola comparison:

Thanks very much Charusen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
I ask this question to the people who owns/owed a Galaxy S2 and saw the yellow banding on the left side, does the Galaxy Note also suffer the same issue or has samsung already rectified this ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eallan:
Kind of. No where near as noticeable as on the sgs2.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Well thats good to hear, I guess its the SAMOLED Plus thats having these issues.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eallan:
Yeah, on the SGS2 it was so annoying i returned my first one.

I'd say (with my single Note) it's not an issue at all. It's something I had to look for and i'm quite acute with these sorts of issues.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Great, hopefully other S2 users with the note can also provide a feedback.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
BUMPING this for more user feedback.
[HD2 General] Captain_coco265:
Hey guys,

I recently had issues with the HD2 I purchased from ebay. The seller said it was fine and it was, just a few little screen cracks and lag issues had to be mended.

So I did what most people do and took it to my local phone repair store.

Now, I sent it in and it was booting magldr and android RAFdroid 2.2 or something like that and everything was fine just lagging and shutting down when I ran large games or large apps ( main problem ) <-- the reason I wanted it fixed.

But now it came back into my possession and it wont boot at all it just comes up with the image posted below.

the only thing I have managed to boot onto it is the HTC default stock - RUU_Leo_Telstra_WWE_1.72.841.0 -

BUT

Even the - RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2 - Didn't work.

Is my phone screwed? where should I go from here?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
you flashed telstra rom, but sure its a telstra model hd2? That screen is usually encountered when one tries to flash the wrong stock rom whilst hspl is installed.
[HD2 General] Captain_coco265:
Hey I also just tried installing the

and that failed but I got this message (read below), any ideas?

I'm going to continue trying to flash more stock roms until one works that isn't the telstra one.

Do you have any idea's on what I could do to maybe erase all the data on it and start again?

(I'm pretty sure task29 only does a specific part of data deletion)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
well first off, IS it a telstra? It will say telstra on the actual phone if i'm not mistaken? (or perhaps not, cant remember)

Secondly, what does it say in bootloader? (all lines, please)
[HD2 General] Veggi:
I had the same problem

Hi, I had the same problem yesterday but soon had it fixed!

First you have to make sure you've got the correct stock ROM, as samosamuel pointed out. You should just be able to go to your countries HTC site and find your ROM.

Download the ROM, rename it to .zip and extract the files. Find the file with the .nbh extension, copy it to the root of your micro-sd card. Boot your phone holding down power and volume down. It should now install fine.
[HD2 General] Captain_coco265:
Thank you all so much for your help.

After installing the correct stock rom I was able to re-install the HSPL and then Magldr :) Thank you.

Is my phone screwed? where should I go from here?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
well for a start there are no hd2s that would take both of those roms, , , they are for different versions. The wwe 3.14 is for unbranded (carrier unlocked) regular hd2s, the 1.72 one is for telstra branded hd2s, , so a phone that took one wouldn't take the other (well unless using hspl of course, but im just making the point that it isn't as simple as getting 'a' stock rom).

so, first job - enter bootloader (power off - voldown(keep holding this) - tap and release power)

in stripey screen, (bootloader) please write out all the lines (or take a picture)
[HD2 General] elementalfx:
Just download HSPL4 and reinstall hspl to version 2.08 and then flash your rom. Its all over the forum how to solve this problem. Just search the forum.

[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
Hi, the vibration of my phone is gone... suddenly it stopped working without any reason. And as i bought my phone in december 2010 it has still warranty so i'm planning to take it back to the shop to repair.

Currently i'm running CM7 but i know i must flash an original ROM in order not to loose the warranty. I already tried JPQ in kyrillos thread but kies keep saying it cannot check for updates.

My complete version numbers are (by Kies):

I5800XXJPQ

I5800XFJP9

I5800XXJP4

I5800XXJPQ

What should i do to completely restore my phone as if i never flashed a custom rom?

Thanks!
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
u should first formate /system partition from recovery then flash (csc version), and if u flash a 2.2 version then kies will not display any update because there is no official 2.3 for g3
[Galaxy 3 General] i_rnb:
before flashing stock rom convert ur partition to rfs..

make a fs.convert like this

stl6 rfs
stl7 rfs
stl8 rfs

& then flash it..

PS: flash ur regional stock rom...
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
i think there is no need to converting partition before flashing, because every stock odexed rom has already rfs filesystem by default, instead if he will formate the /system partition then he will get a fresh rom like official rom, and he has to formate /system for changing csc version ( i think)
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
I don't know much about CSC, sorry.

Do you think that formatting system partition and flashing stock jpq is enough?
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
yes enough, if jpq is your regional rom
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
I tried formatting system partition and then install a stock JPQ rom but kies says that "system update is not supported for my device". So there must be something i have to do to restore my phone in a clean state.

Just to clarify a little more: i know my phone won't get updated by kies as it already is 2.2 but i want kies to check for updates and answer "no update found", which i cannot do now
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
R u sure that jpq is your regional rom, I suggest you to flash your 2.1 regional rom and check update via kies.
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
Yes, JPQ is european rom and i live in italy. It should be ok.

However, i do not have my 2.1 stock rom.
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
Please help, i'm not able to update via kies yet, even if now i'm on stock 2.1 downloaded from samfirmware.com
[Galaxy 3 General] Mohanshbhr:
don't know what's the the problem:confused::confused::confused:

i was facing also some touchscreen problem so i had to give my fon to sevice before giving to service i did like this

first formated /system, /data, /cache then /boot then power off from recovery directly then flash 2.1 (I5801DDJG6 Indian rom) and give it to service, i didn't check via kies or something else, and no problem at all, they replace the touchscreen with 2.1 version:mad::mad:
[Galaxy 3 General] haree:
hi

im sure u know how to used odin go to the below link and take the rom for ur country and flash it via odin and then get the new kies from the samsung website and try and it should work

this link : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1063940
[Galaxy 3 General] mankokoma:
I think you have to download the Eclair version I5800XXJK1 (Country code Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom) from

samfirmware.com

Don't forget to take out the files sbl.bin and boot.bin out of the tar-file!

I don't see the reason, why then Kies should not do the update after flashing this with odin...

the direct link is this

Maybe the suggested version is the same, which Kyrillos posted...

Would be interested in RESULTs!! Thanks.
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
I did all your suggestions but none worked... Kies still says my device is not compatible with check for updates.

I'll try to go to the service and see what they will do...
[Galaxy 3 General] haree:
hi

this is something which came to me yesterday when i was cheking update for my phone.Pls unchek the debugging Mode i forgot and the same happen then i unchecked it and kies was working fine and also detected my phone

do this go to : setting>application>development and here unchek the USB debugging then it should work:D
[Galaxy 3 General] mankokoma:
LOL, That could be true of course! Didn't think of that, as I never used Kies for nearly a year now...
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
Well, my usb debugging was not checked, but i enabled unknow sources for app installing. Now i disabled it and at least kies doesn't say my phone doen't support firmware update... But still, i cannot update from stock 2.1 to 2.2.
[Galaxy 3 General] thomastjje:
I had the same problem. I connected my phone to kies and it says that my device does not support kies updates! What i have to do to fix this?

Sorry for bad English:-)
[Galaxy 3 General] andreapier:
Did you read the thread at least?

We do not have a working solution yet!
[Galaxy 3 General] mankokoma:
one more thing coming just to my mind is, I remember that you have to take out the sdcard, before Kies handles the device...
[Galaxy 3 General] haree:
hi

sorry its just a precaution not a must in fact i have never ever removed my SD card and have had zero problems using the kies and flashing any ROM :)
[Galaxy 3 General] Sirvarez:
Hi, i am new in xDA and my english is not really good, so (i am a bit noob too haha) i dont understand how to restore the original rom on Galaxy 3. And i have a problem because i want to take my device to SAT, for a reparation, and i havent got the oficial rom.

Is there any zip or tar archive with the original rom to flash it with odin or something or i have to do something else to preserve my warrantee? :P

I hope you understand and can help me, if you speak spanish that would be great hahaha

anyone help on this one??? if i try to load the latest pc186.img for twrp recovery it just tells me version is older and only option is to reboot device
[HTC EVO 3D] nanobutter:
Go to twrp site and download the latest image which is 1.1.1.img and flash it using fastboot all should be well. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
If you HTC unlocked, you have to flash everything other than ROMs through fastboot.

That means kernels, recoveries, splash screens, etc. have to flashed through fastboot.

In your case you would download the twrp 1.1 image and enter 'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'

[EVO Shift 4G General] riche1:
I was curious about the camera image quality of the shift. My pictures always turn out very noisy and washed out. I have read around and found the same complaints but no answers on improvement. My 1.5mp first gen Sony camera takes a better picture. I have the exact same issues on the stock HTC, other sense roms and CM7 nightly. The quality of the image changes very little. I am looking to get a decently clear picture. I do not expect perfection from a cell phone but when I see the 100% full size picture it's really bad even in on a perfect sunny day. I see the improve image patch that I have not downloaded yet. Is there a camera app that will take a better image ? Is the kernel code for the camera a possibly culprit ?

I know there are a lot of programs like camera 360 but that's not exactly want I am looking for.

It's a little disappointing to have a 5mp camera that is not very good. I could deal with a little washed out color but all the pixelation is what I don't like at the full 5mp resolution when on my computer. Thanks for any responses and help in advance

[EVO Shift 4G General] Ron Overdrive:
Improved image patch?
[EVO Shift 4G General] riche1:
Ya, saw it as a suggested thread when I started to type my subject. I have not tried it. I believe it was for the shift :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] riche1:
i was wrong for motorola phone boo !
[EVO Shift 4G General] linuxman008:
Are you sure you set the image quality to 5 mp first? I own a really nice 16 mp canon camera, and the shift with 5 mp takes far better pictures, even in bad lighting.

Then again, I rarely take photos, I take videos then remove the frames I want as photos, ensures I always get the picture I want.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riche1:
yes, it is set at 5mp. I have tried lower ISO and all the tricks but it isn't still blurry and lots of pixelation.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Well THIS article helped me ;) .
[EVO Shift 4G General] riche1:
Just a login screen :(
[EVO Shift 4G General] snoopjedi:
My shift takes pretty good images...in the right conditions.

Low light conditions almost always produce ruinous pictures. The picture displays huge amounts of noise in these cases. Flash is generally not helpful.

Choosing the ISO manually shows improvement, and I personally prefer the Touch focus mode. When shooting outdoors in daylight, I usually get very nice pictures, particularly if I shoot in 5MP and then downsize them.

I don't get it, every single picture I take is blurry and very noisy no matter what. You can not tell until you see the full resolution size 2592x1936. I don't need to save all pictures this size but I do a lot of cycling events that I would like to take good pictures at. My hope was to be able to have some nice larger photos to print . It would save me from buying a DC. I have noticed that older pictures before my rom flash are the same way.

The camera on my 3yr old crappy ATT samsung took clear pictures.Some were a little noisy because of lighting but not near as bad as this .

I am starting to wonder if my sensor is defective or my lens is scratched . I would attach a picture but the restrictions here would not allow it. Thanks for the help again. I guess I am SOL :D
