[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CADude:
Yeah. Apollo is where the tide is going to turn. Might be a year too late though.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohgood:
What is fundamentally different with Apollo that is going to make things change ?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boburto:
If you look at the Nexus devices, they are usually worse or at best equal to the flagship Android devices at the time. Every single one has something less than the flagship: lower quality screen, slower processor, single vs dual core, slower GPU.

So i'm not sure we need a 'Nexus'.

What i'd like to see is a Microsoft Flagship phone. The best of the best for WP7 which all the other companies have to live up to. (Although for me, best of the best doesn't mean a huge screen. I'd prefer a 3.7" like the Lumia.)

Oh and 32GB flash and an inline remote than can change songs with double/triple click. This is a core functionality i miss on the iPhone.

Oh and a docking solution, similar to the iPhone, where 1 cable gives you everything. Transfer audio digitally by USB if they have to, just do it!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonide:
I don't agree. :D

I love my Titan.

And I don't like the Nexus so much to say we need it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PG2G:
There are a lot of interesting things in Windows Phone that just haven't been fully fleshed out. I expect things to develop further in those areas in Apollo, hopefully native code support, much better xbox live integration, hardware support that is actually competitive with Android/iOS (720p, multi core, 1GB+ RAM), improved TellMe (with APIs for developers), improved cloud (with API for developers), Nokia's influence on the direction of the software, and so on...

Not to mention, I'm sure there are plenty of things none of us could predict. So yeah, I think there is going to be a lot to be excited about, especially with it launching in the same time frame as Windows 8.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
You search for the HTC Titan :) that is such an device!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicksti:
I thought the answer is easy. Its about ceilings and floors.

What is the floor on an Android Phone? A 2.8" low res screen, 600MHz cpu phone? What is the ceiling? So if we put it numerically let us say the floor on Android is a 4 and the ceiling is a 10, that is how flagship phones arise.

Windows Phone all the phones are say 7 to 8 (if the Android low end phones are 4s) so it is harder to come out with a flagship phone the same way. The only way you would get a flagship phone in the Mango group of handsets is to put a 32+GB internal storage, FFC, Super AMOLED, 12MP phone. You can't do anything with the cpu/gpu, resolution, NFC, LTE type things. And flagship phones have everything and the kitchen sink.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
The problem is the OEMs are in a difficult position. The OS is on lock down as far as customization is concerned, and Microsoft is slow to move the platform forward in terms of hardware.

So there are too issues:

1. They cannot really make a compelling experience that is "theirs," like they can on android...

2. How many times can you package up the same thing and sell it? HTC has the Radar and Titan. Samsung has the Focus S and Flash. Anything beyond that is largely redundant because they are really limited in Customization and Hardware Options. OEMs like Samsung can't even use their own chipsets in their own WP7 devices (Hummingbird/Exynos).

Additionally... Carriers KNOW this. This is why some like Verizon have questions about Microsoft's roadmap. If the phones they have now aren't selling like hotcakes, what indication is that to anyone that a different device that is moderately better, yet generally more of the same is going to change that?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
you can repackage and resell the same device lots actually...

Look at Sony ericcson, Samsung, or htc's android selections for examples of this
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
You're being disingenuous. And I mean on the same carrier. What else can samsung put on AT& The that would be worth pushing with the Stars and Flash there, for example. There is not enough room.

Samsung and HTC can put 5 android devices on a carrier and they will all be factorably different. You can't really do that with Wp7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicksti:
You did not say on the same carrier when you asked. Nothing you said also implied you meant on the same carrier.

To be honest, I wonder if you could easily pick out all the HTC Android phones made in a calendar year and then say they are more different than similar. Or even 5 factorable different ones.

And finally, aren't you are being disingenuous. The problem is not the restrictive nature of Windows Phone, the problem is how many Windows Phones manufacturers make in a calendar year. HTC could make 10 factorable different Windows Phones in a calendar year, but for business reasons they make less. A combination of screen sizes, camera mps, form factors, capacities and other things (beats audio) can result in many different phones. Just because the number of buttons, screen res, and cpu are the same it does not mean OEMs cannot be creative.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] 3abdo3asal:
Hello my brother bricked my tmous hd2 he was installing Wp7 from Android and through the installation the device just shut down don't know why ....,

The battery was 100%,after manual restarting the phone it shows white screen and

with colors around on top and down of the screen, cannot enter bootloader.

Help please want to revive this piece of beautiful Tech :(:(:(:(:(:(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Marvlesz:
Were you with him when it was bricked? Are you sure it went off on its own?

(because as far as I know, the HD2 won't shut off for no reason, taking into account that the battery was fully charged.)

Also, since the device boots up, I doubt it is bricked.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Johev:
If you have HSPL on it, than it is not bricked.

Try this:

1) Take out the battery for 30 sec at least

2) Put it back in and press the volume down button (and hold it), while you press on the Power button (an hold)

Until you enter the 3 colour screen

After you are there, just connect it to the PC and as soon as it says USB you can flash MALGDR or anything you want.

Good luck.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sereousl:
ughhh

man i think my hd2 is brickd like it wont even turn on it only vibrates a lil wen i press the power button any help please
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] ayopancheezy:
When it vibrates, isn't it a sign that it's booting up? Try doing what Johev stated. Hold the Volume down button while it's booting up or even while holding the power button. If you can get to the tri-colored screen, your phone is safe.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
So heres the story:

When I was rooting my Amaze using xboarder's Guide, I got a "Status 0" error, then rooted it using the Easy Perm Root One Click, got some mistakes in the cmd, and rerooted it but this time the guide was working flawlessly.

So yesterday the same thing happened to my girl's Amaze, but on my way to rerooting it, i did a sloppy mistake and applied the unlock_code.bin for my phone instead of her. :D :eek: The phone froze for a few seconds, then a "Security Warning" message showed up under ***Relocked*** and restarted back to hboot by itself. By then I already had realized what ive done and changed the cmd directory to her bin, unlocked the bootloader, installed Clockwork and rooted it. The problem is that since then, everytime I try to flash QuickSense or relock and unroot, her phone begins bootlooping even though ph85img.zip seems to flash correctly (i think there were some errors while flashing QuickSense). Also, before i screwed up, i nandroid backed up her rom but then couldnt restore it, shows that android_secure.img is missing and bootloops too.

The only rom which works flawlessly right now on her phone is mike1986's Revolution.

Does anyone know what may be broken and a way to fix it. Thanks in advance!
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
relock then do the whole unlock over again
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
That is my first thought as well.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
I tried this a couple of times, with 531.5 and 531.6 RUUs, its a no go... I just saw your kernel flashing guide, should i try that?
[HTC Amaze 4G] lgtsanev:
I relocked/unlocked the phone 2 more times, the official RUUs and xboarder ROMs keep bootlooping, cannot do proper nandroid backup, but Revolution HD works fine. Any idea why is that, and how I can restore phone's normal settings, so it works with all roms? I really need some help here.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
That just seems....weird.

There has to be something in that rom that is allowing interface, and that something is not allowing it elsewhere. (Kernal/etc.)?
[Motorola Photon 4G] madeSICC:
Woke up this morning and my data wasn't working. Reboot didn't fix it and then I wiped cache and dalvik and got data back but all my phone setting were gone and I then I noticed my Home key and search key don't work. Any ideas

You know what's crazy? I installed it when they first let it out. I checked it yesterday and it only showed me 10 apps. I thought it was just a scheme for them to advertise Motoprint, their $4 printing app that doesn't even work as well as the free printing apps. All of the apps we full price (Quick Office HD at $20.) I uninstalled it last night.

I hope I just had an old version otherwise I'd advise people to stick with the Market or Amazon's app store.

其實五天以前就應該要聯想到了，不過五天之前我正在水深火熱中，趕資訊月相關文章。現在翻一翻突然想到本周四有華碩至尊變形平板記者會。而周四是12月1日，很明顯是趕資訊月。剛剛與廠商人員私底下聊這事，也確認了在資訊展會販售。

有考慮要買Android平板的朋友，就再等一等吧。

"I should have thought of this five days ago, but five days ago I was also in hot water, so I did not remember this piece of news. Just now, as I was digging through previous items, I recalled that there is a press release for the ASUS Transformer Tablet this Thursday. And this Thursday is December 1st, very clearly in time for IT Month. After consulting in private with company employees, it is confirmed that the tablet will be available for sale at the press conference. [Sorry guys, not very good with traditional script, I think that's what the last sentence says, but don't quote me]

Friends that are considering an Android Tablet, please just wait a while longer."

I'll work on the picture next.

The picture doesn't reveal anything new. I'll put the text already in English in italics.

Does it say when on December 1st? I think Taiwan is like 13 hours ahead of us (Central time) so if it is sometime in the morning in Taiwan, we might see some news trickle in here in the US tomorrow night.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Star Shadow:
Sounds like they will be demoing ICS on the prime at the conference. I think to get all the Primes packed and shipped they had to use HC, so this means that on the day we take it out of the box we'll get the ota. Then next run of the prime will be packed with ICS. This sounds cool. Can't wait till the 2nd to get the news and videos since this will most likely be really late on the 1st my time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokusho:
LIveSTREAMMMMMMMM Give US LIVE STREAm !

They weren't joking when they said "more info in december"! Right on schedule, December the first. And shipping and selling it immediatly that's a very good news. With ICS from day one ? That's awesome too.

Now, will we have ICS for the TF on the same day too ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lancer3397:
ooooh well that means with the UK release being January we might go straight to ICS. nice
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokusho:
Do we have an exact hour ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Smyc151:
I don't think anyone's said (and I have been looking), but according to the info where the review on Ritchie's Room that was taken down is (link), the review will be back up by 5 p.m. Sydney Australia time on the first of December, so one would think that it would be well over by then.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
5 pm Sydney would be 7 am CET (Germany) and 2 pm CST (Taiwan)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] htowngator:
So basically 1am on the east coast.

I cant send any files via bluetooth in ginger cruzt rom

[Droid X General] dvigue:
i have not owned a Droidx since it came out with Froyo. whats the best rom for battery life out there right now? also, when CM got released i had read allot about CM, and Miui roms suck the battery out of the x bad. is that still true?

looking forward to all your posts...

Thanks

PS. will there be a decent working port of ICS ever ported to the X you think?
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
I would recommend trying MIUI 1.11.9. It uses the ICS framework, and some users have reported getting up to 40 hours of battery life. You just have to try it for yourself.

As far as stock based roms go, I would recommend Vortex, as it gets very good battery life. Most people recommend Liberty too.

Ice Cream Sandwich is coming to the Droid X, but of course it will take some time. We already have booting builds so the development process is coming along well.
[Droid X General] FC127:
Liberty got great battery life for me. Also give Shuji a try.

[General Questions and Answers] Cheetah64d:
Hi.

First of all, let me say that half of time took me to look for the right forum in XDA to post this message, and I'm still not sure I'm in the right place..

I think my Q is about modifying my OS, and this is why I post it here.

If the admin think there's better forum to this issue - I'd love to hear it..

Now, to business:

I have a GPS device, brand is X-GPS Navigation, Model GPS-S450B, that I will like to play with.

The OS is Windows® Embedded CE 6.0.

I just found out that at my GPS device, there is a file that resposible to a certain BMP that shown up at the shutdown process.

The filename is "PowerKey.exe", and it reffer to a file named "Notice_en.bmp".

I want to change that Notice-en.bmp file, to show that message in another langueage. I tried to overwrite the file with a similar bmp file, no luck. The file just re-created.

I've tried to edit the PowerKey.exe with a hex editor, and write a new path, to a file in NandFlash directory instead of the Notice_en that lays in Windows folder.

That also didn't go so well. "PowerKey has been preform illegal action and have to be shout down" or something like that, was the message. I could only put the device to sleep, until I recovered the old PowerKey file.

Any solution how to change the BMP file that resposible for the shutdown message?

(I guess the best idea is to write a registry entry to overwrite the BMP file in \Windows directory with the one in the \NandFlash directory every boot, only problem - I donno how to do it. :))
[General Questions and Answers] Cheetah64d:
Anyone?

There's no solution to my problem?
[General Questions and Answers] jeitzen:
Recompile the exe.
[General Questions and Answers] Cheetah64d:
