X2...sprint is not what it used to be. They found a way to keep increasing my bill while at the same time decreasing service. (This includes customer service as well)

I'm gonna be on this epic till they pry it out og my cold dead hands :-( Unfortunately I don't see competition getting better, so I don't see a good alternative.
[Epic 4G General] migmartinez:
I'm I the only one who has to wait till 2013 I'm considering getting a Nexus s 4g what do u guys think bcuz I heard that it will get ICS so I'm takin that inti consideration
[Epic 4G General] wwjoshdew:
OMG! That is SO GOOD TO HEAR! I have been a HUGE fan of your Radioactive FroYo rom that you did for the Samsung Moment! My wife just got the Epic 4G and I was thinking of flashing some EI22 roms from here, but I just might wait for CM7! I remember Cyanogen tweeting a while back that you were not going to sleep until you had CM6 booting on the Epic, but that was ages ago. It's so nice to see you around! It was like you disappeared off the face of the earth and left sdx.
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
SWEET ! I've been looking forward to running a fully-loaded CM7 ! :)
[Epic 4G General] toolegit:
The physical keyboard used to be very important to me. I had the Moment before the Epic, and the keyboard is why I went with the Epic instead of the Evo.

But I'm not impressed with the keyboard.... I find myself using the virtual one 80% of the time.

But I'm mostly happy with this phone, and right now I'm planning on keeping it until I get an upgrade.
[Epic 4G General] lancelane:
I am eligible for my last 1 year upgrade but dont want to be on a non LTE phone for 2 years. I live in st louis and a t and t promises LTE here early next year. I may jump ship or i may wait for Sprint LTE. ETF is still low so yet another reason to wait.

I need to decide on a gingerbread rom. Any ideas?

Sent from my Epic on Midnight or my Galaxy Tab rooted (feels naked without a ROM)
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
Clean GB is a good one ;)
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
+1 on clean GB
[Epic 4G General] Jayavarman:
I am going on another overseas military deployment in order to avoid the temptation of upgrading. When I return to the States in November 2012, I will make a decision based on LTE, keyboard, 4-inch+ screen, and data plan.
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
You couldn't do it then, I fail to see you succeeding now.
[Epic 4G General] caileb:
ETA PLZ???

completely kidding. unlike the other hates here, I really appreciate your work! Thanks a bunch!
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
seriously ?!?!?!?!
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
Yeah seriously. You must not remember his wonderful CM6 builds, or his cm7. Thats right because it wasn't until recently someone got it going.
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
But they ARE working on it now ... so let's give them the benefit of the doubt and hope for the best ... you gotta admit that having fully-functioning sanctioned CM7 for our EPIC would be very cool ;)
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
I'm looking out for you guys.

Yes it is good, and you have to remember that Deca has done far more than noob could ever hope to. I've developed with noobnl for quite a while, he is tinkering with **** that has the potential to **** your world up.

I trust Deca, noob absolutely not. He was pushing people to flash recoveries and **** that were not even tested and he wouldn't flash. Most of them were a crapshoot and had the potential to perma brick your phone.
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
so .... why not try lending them a helping hand instead ;) ... we been waiting a long time for CM7 :)
[Epic 4G General] xjman:
Because Decad3nce knows way more about it than I do. I screwed with it for a while and never got any further than the last attempt when Uberpenguin and Dameon worked on it.
[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
Until the next 4+ inch five row keyboard slider comes I'm sticking with the epic. I'm more productive on it than any slate I've tried. I even ditched my transformer with dock because it was more of a hassle to get going when my phone is always at the ready and always connected. With sugarsync keeping my entire work folder synced on my phone I have instant access to everything I need and can wiz through DTG with ease.

Dual core slate does what for me? Allows me to scroll smoother or play plants vs zombies better? Eh. My data speeds are fine in philly. I don't really wish for anything better outside of just improving the screen and keyboard so I'm good for a while.
[Epic 4G General] superman54:
Same here!
[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
Like LTE in the 1900mhz spectrum will be anything to write home about? Maybe if they use the iden spectrum, but I don't get why sprint always does everything in the higher spectrums where signal penetration suffers.
[Epic 4G General] rkcrawl:
I'm eligible in July and at this point don't see a compelling reason to upgrade. Phone is in great shape, GB rom is fresh, why spend the money and lock in for 2 more years. Could change by then, but for the moment, I'm pretty happy with it. I doubt I'll see LTE in the Knoxville, TN area anytime soon, so maybe a ICS based phone would do it.
[Epic 4G General] Shardog:
I'm not due unil November 2012 so I'm in for the long haul.

I am happy EI22 came out and am using the Legendary Rom 4.0.1.

So far it is a good daily driver and should keep me going until something better comes along.

We will see what ICS is like if it ever drops for the Epic.

As far as Sprint as a company who knows ...
[Epic 4G General] Quicksand Jesus:
I'll stay with the Epic until Google release new features and apps that will no longer work with the OS we have. The Epic is actually a pretty awesome phone. I mean just look at the Droid Charge from Verizon. It took them a year to catch up, and it still doesn't have a keyboard.

Hi guys,

Im writing an api for the whatsapp protocol so that it can be ported to other devices/architectures.

My api is nearly complete and supports the full spectrum of WhatsApp features.

I'd like to write a web client for my API so that WhatsApp can be accessed from anywhere (A pc or anything with a browser).

What type of interest is there in this type of thing and could anyone possibly help with UI development or atleast point me in the right direction. Ive never been creative or good at designing interfaces =]

Thanks,

T
[General Topics] DominionZA:
I would be interested in helping out in my spare time. What language you doing it in?
[General Topics] tehavatar:
The API is currently written in C#; but converting it to other languages probably wont be that hard, considering that all research has already been done and I understand the protocol in its entirety.

However, the current lib is quite nice and the web client should probably be done is asp.net mvc2 or something the can interface with the library directly.
[General Topics] tehavatar:
Oh yeah, I see flash is the most common way of doing this, but how widespread is flash support on mobile devices =|
[General Topics] cobraboy85:
Well, basically any android tablet supports flash, and any phone running gingerbread should or can support it as well.

Apple iOS does not support flash at all. So that group of sheeple is out entirely. To be honest, just the mid to high end android phones support it. I think window phone does as well. But nobody uses that crap.
[General Topics] k43l:
Oh I really like the idea of a WhatsApp web client!

What about using PHP and Javascript and HTML5? It's supported by pretty much any browser and phone and tablet...

I would love to help, but the only programming language I'm (kinda) familiar with is Java... and a little bit of the web stuff.
[General Topics] gfgodoy:
This would really be nice, you might want to take a look at Mightytext (http://mightytext.net/), the chrome integration is a good idea IMHO. A webclient would make it more universal thogh
[General Topics] omerli:
is the API ready ?

i would love to see it if it's really working............

i was thinking about doing it but..............

i thought it could never work!!

can u send me a sample i want in to the development team....
[General Topics] q8phantom:
Hi

I'm a Qt developer who can make some cool clever user interfaces, you might know Qt, with Qt me and your API will make its way to Windows/Linux/Mac/MeeGo/Maemo/Symbian/Android all under one code ;)

There are plenty of developers also who wants to help building whatsapp in Qt available here

Thank you for the great work done ;)
[General Topics] xnpu:
Would you consider open sourcing your library so others can contribute as well as port it to other languages?

[General Topics] the_scotsman:
This is something I've wanted for a while...a WhatsApp client for the pc...would be very popular if you get one going I reckon!
[General Topics] jjjameson:
yeah..! for pc. that would be awsome.

you know there is an app called Tango.. for pc, android, iphone
[General Topics] iadegesso:
Hi,

is it possible to download the C# source code? :cool:
[General Topics] tehavatar:
Its not a scam man, how can it be a scam?

Im not working on this at the moment for lack of motivation... The API itself works, but its in C# and I dont feel like re-writing it for porting. The current source is messy but works nicely. Im not going to open-source it, but if your up for writing a web interface then let me know via pm and ill share it.

[General Topics] bnwg:
Big thumbs up for making it work on MeeGo/Maemo!! By then I don't have any concerns to get a N9.

Is there any chance that LINE can be treated in the same way? (FYI, LINE is another cross-platform instant message app like whatsapp but it can also make internet call like Tango/Viber with good quality!)
[General Topics] francistomas:
API its interface between system and user;)
[General Topics] timmie201:
Is it even possible, i don't think Whatsapp will ever allow this!
[General Topics] tehavatar:
It is very possible, and there is no reason for WhatsApp not to allow this considering the fact that they are using a modified open protocol and have no pc client.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] X-jo:

[Optimus One, P500, V General] X-jo:
minimum a day, but since after work i come home, i connect it anyways to the usb charger. To check the battery life i tried two tests, the normal one (my first post in this thread), lasted for a day and half and still had 20% batter life left.

what abt urs?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] X-jo:
Hi, I use 2G(GPRS) 24x7 and i get atleast 24hrs battery life. Haven't used 3G but heard that it drains battery. 3G is anyways limited which is not my cup of vodka, so 2G ftw.

How much does your battery stay?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Human_dude_007:
16-18hours with occasional 3g (4-5)hours with wifi tethering..

[Motorola Atrix 2] mzaur:
I've read many reviews of people who say that the Atrix 2 is "slightly laggy." I'm sure that after ICS comes out which will enable hardware graphical acceleration, that lag will be pretty much gone. The phone will be much smoother with ICS. What do you guys think?
[Motorola Atrix 2] koriflame:
What lag? o.o My phone hasn't stuttered at all even in games.
[Motorola Atrix 2] TRF-Inferno:
ICS performance on the Galaxy Nexus should be an excellent indication of how it will run on the Atrix 2, as its chipset is the same one used in the Galaxy Nexus, except for lower clock speed. GPU performance between the two is expected to be quite close even though the Atrix 2's SGX 540 has an 84 MHZ disadvantage because it doesn't have to render at higher resolution.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Canio Wolf:
I agree with Kori, my phone has 0 lag even when downloading multiple apps and constant texting as well as syncing
[Motorola Atrix 2] Mytwuk:
LOL what lag are you talking about? Zero lag here.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Somebodys lying to you then cause my A2 doesnt lag at all
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
It is funny that A2 has such a nice review from everyone, but not many peoples are actually getting it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] RussianMenace:
+1. For $99 its an unbelievable steal as far as what you get for your money.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
I think thats due to a few reasons

1. It came on the coattails of the iP4

2. It got no marketing push and isnt even avail. at all AT&T stores

3. It has just a few upgrades over the OG Atrix

4. It came just before two overhyped devices, the RAZR and Nexus

I think the combination of people not knowing about it, the timing of its release and the release of two heavily marketed devices has paralyzed the market for the A2.....and a locked bootloader doesnt help at all.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Douchewithaphone:
There really isn't much lag except with some ****ty apps that are badly coded/not optimized yet. Really though, the Atrix 2 runs quite well.
[Motorola Atrix 2] mzaur:
Glad to hear that you guys have no lag on your A2s. I'm just repeating what I read. Some have reported it as laggy compared to the GS2.

For the price ($50 on Amazon), this phone is a steal. I'll be getting it next month. Really looking forward to ICS!
[Motorola Atrix 2] spielnicht:
No lag here, smooth as silk compared to other Android phones and especially my OG Atrix.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Clovett:
Honestly, I don't know what all the lag statements are about. I guess if I switched screens at a rapid pace continually it might lag once but who uses their phone like that?
[Motorola Atrix 2] lilhaiti:
I don't see much lag at all...there is an occasional slight stutter, but every android phone does that at some point.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Douchewithaphone:
Everyone with a GS2 just wants to talk smack on the Atrix 2, bro. I tried the GS2 and I'm glad I made the decision to go with the Atrix 2.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
I think the GS2 is a nice device but I just didnt think it was $150 better than the Atrix 2
[Motorola Atrix 2] athris:
Also i think another advantage vs GS2 is that the omap 4 series cpu are using duel channel memory controller. I think this is one of the reason that A2 doesn't have lag issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] deathsycthehe11:
Well I just got my phone and flashed it to Unnamed rom. Now there's a slight delay when waking up the phone, around 1-2 seconds. Is that normal? I didn't get to test it on stock so I'm not sure if other people have that slight delay. Is a bit annoying at times cause I would double press and it would sleep it again. Just wondering if its normal. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rrryan2:
It's the default Conservative CPU governor used in Entropy's Daily Driver kernel included with the ROM. As a battery saving measure the conservative governor scales up more slowly. Entropy has a zip in his kernel thread to restore the On Demand governor of you prefer. It scales up a little more quickly but uses a little more battery since out uses more of the upper CPU states.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] deathsycthehe11:
Hmm, would you say is worth it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rrryan2:
According to your preference really. I'm using the Conservative since it was included with the kernel and getting mostly good snappiness, but I might switch back to OnDemand since I was getting pretty good battery life on the stock kernel with OnDemand anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] deathsycthehe11:
Hmm, alright. How exactly would I do this? I don't need a full step on step guide. Just a short sentence. I'm a android newb but can understand stuff easy. Do I use odin and just flash the ondemand zip? Do I need to do anything before that if thats the case?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rrryan2:
Go to Entropy's thread, download the Ondemand zip, flash it, done. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
No, it's the fact that our device fundamentally takes at LEAST 650 milliseconds to resume from suspend. It does not matter what kernel - I have NEVER seen this numer lower except for some I9100 users, and the best they can do is intermittently get resume down to 500-550 msec.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rrryan2:
Interesting, learn something every day. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cheetablaze:
THat small pause doesn't bother me, conservative is what I use as well. It's like getting smacked to wake up and roll outta bed, it's gonna take a sec ya know?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Momomuffins:
There are a ridiculous number of posts about backing up data blah blah and I don't have time to read 500 more threads searching for an answer so I hope someone can quickly enlighten me.

I just HSPL'd my phone and want to load a ROM. I'm using Vista 64bit and WMDC isn't detecting my phone. Tried steps here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5680067 and it seems the disabling driver signing command didn't work. HOWEVER...my concern is loss of paid apps after loading the new ROM. Would WDMC even backup apps or just PIM data? If so I'll quit messing with WDMC and move on. I don't care so much about losing PIM I've just paid pretty pennies for a lot of apps and I'd prefer not to have to pay for them again at the very least.

If it's impossible, so be it, I won't load the ROM and I'll just stop. Just need someone to 100% confirm what data I will lose, what data I can retrieve and restore to the device, what data I can backup using which tool OR is my app purchase info stored somehow with my LiveID so I don't have to pay again? I've been plugging away for hours today getting this phone HSPL'd so I'm a tad fried...my apologizes for redundancy. Thanks :rolleyes:!!!
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4d0w86:
i, personally, do not have my HD7 backed up, but that could because i am constantly flash my device.

anyways, answer to your question.

back-up, document?, music, and picture sync is done via Zune.

calendar/contact syncing is done with Hotmail or Live email account.

paid apps shouldn't need to be repaid for. they are linked to your Live id.

i hope that is what you were asking...
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Momomuffins:
Exactly what I was asking for :D You da' bomb! Flash is already at 45%...eeeeeeee!
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Momomuffins:
Phone is up! It's play-time :D
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4d0w86:
glad i could help. enjoy the new ROM.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Momomuffins:
For future ref, when I want to load another ROM, all I have to do is download it and run the RUU00 tool again?

Oh and I went to the marketplace to find an app I know I paid for just to see if it would let me re-download without paying...it has no idea that I've paid before D: I still get the TRY and BUY boxes *weeping softly*
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4d0w86:
well, actually...

task00 is for flashing Radios and SPLs.

task29 is for flashing OSs.

and remember...

if you flash a Shipped ROM, XSPL will be replaced by OSPL.

if you flash a Custom ROM, XSPL will stay intact.

edit.

Zune keeps a history of your downloaded and paid-for apps, just download apps through the Marketplace in Zune.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Momomuffins:
Yeah task29, that's what I meant, heehee- I have them in separate file folders marked with what they do :P

I flashed a custom ROM (DeepShining) after HSPL'ing (guess that's how you say it LOL) When I sync to Zune will that re-lock it or is that only if I had RSPL'd only? And what to you mean by "will stay intact"....and...what are the consequences/benefits of getting replaced by OSPL?

*EDIT* oh duh OSPL was what I had to downgrade because of my official Mango update, right? still not seeing how that can be bad...but again I'm fried...

*EDIT #2* I went back to your tutorial and read...I just think I'll stay away from shipped ROMs if at all possible :P 19hrs of trying to get HSPL is enough for me :D
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htinstaller4u:
It appears you lose all game saves and they are unretrieveable. I was however able to redownload them with no additional charges from marketplace.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sh4d0w86:
yes, that is correct. all saved data is lost.

RSPL is a temporary SPL that will revert back to OSPL after soft reset.

HSPL is a permanent SPL that will only be replaced with a new SPL flash.

no, syncing with Zune shouldn't relock device.

flashing a Shipped ROM now is more for security for warranty purposes.

XSPL and Custom ROMs void warranty.
