[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Flo95:
Hello guys,

I'm from the Xperia Arc forums and know how to flash Android phones, but one of my friends has a HTC XDA Diamond and WinMobile 6.1 on it and wants Android on it.

After he saw how awesome Android is on my Xperia X10 and now on my Xperia Arc...

So he wants to know which Android ROM is the best one and how to install it?

The ROM should be:

- as fast as possible

- as stable as possible

- most up to date regarding the Android version

- most/all stuff should be working

He wants me to install it and choose the ROM as he thinks I'm good at that stuff (well, I'm good on Android...).

So please tell me which ROM is the one to use and how to put it on his device.

I have no experience with WinMobile so please don't be rude to me.

Thanks :)

Regards,

Flo

At work last week someone asked me that question and I just thought it was funny. I work in a technology company with Apple being the dominant brand of choice (of course). After explaining to him it was the new Asus Transformer Prime with the Tegra 3, etc etc he ended with saying; "oh, so it's like a baby iPad?"

*Sigh*

Pretty funny. Anyone else run into any situations like this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrokeefe:
Lol...just keep letting em think that. It's for the best. I just stopped talking tech with my ibuddies. I've been a mac (computers) guy since about 2001 and can't stand what they've done with iTunes iPod iPhone crap. I personally believe ios is for kids, women and grandparents. If you're any kind of a true "tech" guy you wouldn't be caught dead with an iPhone.

Just sayin....

Really? A Baby iPAd? LMAO

I know a lot of my friends are huge Apple lovers. I just cant get behind that. Trust me I have tried.

With the Prime I have had some people say well that's cute but you know the iPad can do this and this and that.

I always look at them and say I know it can but do you remember the game "Lemmings"? Kind of what owning Apple products is like.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
Unfortunately for some of us, it's dictated by the company we work for. Where I am, they pay for the device and service, so I get what they give me. I would kill for a Nexus or SII, but they just won't go that direction.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hairdewx:
I hate it when people do that, and 99% of the time it seems to be Apple users...

So what if the iPhone/iPad can do that.. How does that help me? I have an Android device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gruntguy:
It's not just the iPad users that say things like that... My Grandparents (who don't own any apple devices) call any kind of tablet an iPad. They call my TFP an iPad, and hell, they even call my Dell Streak an iPad/iPhone.

Guess when you spend enough on advertising so a person can't go more than 15 minutes without seeing a commercial pays off, huh? :)

Luckily I run an Android User Group so not only is it unlikely to people for people to assume I am holding an Apple device, I get to totally make them regret their mistake.

As an example, this is what I have displayed in my cube:

I used to have this on top for all passer-bys to see, but after Jobs died I was forced to display it in my cube only.

And yes, that is a VHS tape with a coffin-ized Apple logo. It was a gift and I found it quite appropriate. :)

lol. If I'm not mistaken iphone is also made in china. I have so many friends with iphones and they praise it like its the best thing ever. When i tell them to go to this website (with flash) or I show them google nav turn by turn on my Evo 3d, then they're like "oh man mine doesnt do that" lol.

My other friend used to be an android fan but after getting an ipad2 he thinks apple is the ish and is bragging about ipad3 already even when it hasn't even come out yet lol. Unfortunately hes moved over to the dark side forever....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mtotho:
I am in college, so maybe I am in an environment of slightly, and I emphasize 'slightly' more tech savy people in general. Not many people here own iPads, but many of the people who see my TFP are overall impressed.

"Wow thats skinny", "wow that looks nice"

I do occasionally get "oh did you get an ipad" but then I quickly correct them.

I actually sat down at a table with someone who had an iPad 2 and another person with an iPad og. Being that they were stuck in their iLife, they were seemingly unaware of the existence of android tablets. They were generally impressed with the look and feel of my transformer.. and there was one person at the table who had used to own an android phone then switched to iPhone (not entirely by choice) so they knew the shortcomings of an iOS and were very impressed by what I could do with my tablet and they could not do with their ipads.

It's funny that they don't know their precious iPhones are made by Foxconn in CHINA! To top that off, a bunch of Chinese works committed suicide as a protest against the working conditions, seriously suicide!!! Look it up, I think it was 11 workers. Now they have to sign forms that say, I will not commit suicide and if I do my family will only get the minimum benefits from my death! Crazy.

Oh, I've heard worse than some of this. Last week I saw my sister and niece for the first time since Christmas. The 8 year old was playing on an iPad. I said to my sister "Y'all got a tablet, that's great! I got one, too". She says "you have an iPad?" Me, understanding why she might think that, said "no, I just meant I got a tablet, too. Mine's an Android tablet".

wait for it.....

she says......

"What's a tablet? Aren't all these things iPads?"

:eek:

DOH!!! :confused:

I was so embarrassed. I live here, in the same city, 15 minutes away from them. She told me she had originally gotten a Nook but couldn't get it to play Netflix. She knows I root my phone, hacked my Nook color, etc and never thought to call me. I don't care that they have an Apple product, I just can't believe she didn't know what a TABLET is.

I'm employed at "The Orchard", and while I like the iPad and like some features (mainly UI) of iOS, I like my TFP a lot more. The more I use my Prime, the more I like it. I've never even wanted to own an iPad lol, nor do I own an iPhone (anymore). I do love my BlackBerry though lol, but my next phone will be either a Galaxy Nexus, Razor Maxx, or whatever the next installation in the Nexus line will be.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] goodintentions:
A long time ago when the TF101 first came out, I got it and was using it on a train when a well dressed gentleman came and sat next to me and asked "which ipad is that?" and I said "it's not an ipad, it's an asus transformer" and he responded "oh, it's an immitation". My blood almost got boiled, but I stay calmed and went back to doing my own thing with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Erusman:
lol funny. Well I have both. I have five kids so the Ipad 2 is easy for them. Tons of apps and games. Prime is daddy's toy. End of story.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] r3loaded2010:
I have a few friends who own iPads, but they all understand what iOS and Android are and what constitutes a tablet (partly because many are CS students and partly because they're my friends who listen to me and my advice). Same with my parents - they sit down to ask me to explain in impartial terms the latest technologies and trends. My dad in particular is one of the few non-techy people who understands the nature of the Apple cult and rejects most Apple devices as being "marketing BS" (his conclusion, not mine).

This crap has happened before with all MP3 players being labelled iPods. If a person is dumb enough to not understand the difference even when you've explained it to them, they're not worth knowing tbh. On the flip side, you know it'll be easily to manipulate them... :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ReaderLee:
This is the typical response I get "Oh, it's like an iPad?". Over and over and over again....

Worse, when at Best Buy to get the OG Transformer for my son, two employees tried to steer me over to the iPad shrine and one told me that all the tablets were "basically the same"...and then tried to steer me back over to the iPad. "Basically the same", really????
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] geinome:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slef2003:
Was in PC World today with a mate and whilst he was buying something I went to the Ipads and navigated to the adobe flash site and left them all on a page that said "sorry Apple does not allow flash to be played on this device"

I know it is childish but it made me laugh when a sales bod took someone over to them and he had to explain why they would not play flash!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hauj0bb:
Mine called my original TF a iPad knockoff in conversation for a while too :rolleyes:, and I was furious lol, so she started calling it "Asus Eee Pad Transformer", sigh. Finally, after correcting her so many times, she calls my TFP "The Prime", or "Transformer Prime" - great success!

I've had someone come up with it in its dock and say "Ooo! A netbook! I have one of those!"

My response was "Really?" at which point I disconnected it and handed the tablet over. I got a shocked look followed by a "oh... mine doesn't do that. What is it, an iPad?"

"Well, it's kind of like an iPad. Except it's got 4 (well technically 5) processors, better battery life, a higher resolution display, and the latest version of Android. But yeah, kind of like an iPad."

Voice control.....

I was at my parents house and used a voice search on my phone, someone quickly replied "oh, is that the new iphone, I saw the commercial"....They were quite surprised when I told them that Androids have had that feature for quite some time now. My iPhone toting mom was also quite surprised when I made my phone a wifi hotspot and ran the tablet off of it.

I think that Android gets kind of a bad reputation when it comes to user experience as far as ease of use as compared to iOS. A lot of people really believe you have to be somewhat tech savvy to use a droid......I kind of believed it too until I bought my wife a galaxy 2, she is not at all techie, but after a quick introduction she gets everything she needs out of the device and is constantly telling me how much she likes it better than her old iphone 3g.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NastroGlide:
I think it requires a level of understanding tech. My mom switched to T-Mobile and got an android phone...the calls haven't stopped since. How do I.click. call back, I keep touching that stupid button.click.call back, I hate this phone.call back.how do i txt?yada yada yada. Tried to help her set up home screens to make it work for her, that was an hour phone call and we only got her 1st home screen done, lol. So I would say android is for the under fifty crowd.

I could probably fill this thread with stupid iPeople comments..

"How do i download apps" "The App Store wont allow Maestro" "How do i put music on"

Nahh the best one was "My phone is running out of Space, how do i get more?" OMG Why didnt you do as i said and buy a F*****G ANDROID

It's funny when you go to different places (AT&T store, BB, Microcenter websites...) they have product categories like "iPhones and smart phones", "iPads and tablets", and "iPods and mp3 players"... Sadly Apple has gotten people to believe they're different...

Whereas "iPhones and smart phones" makes you thinking "oh, iPhone isn't smart?"

Same here. Used my Prime with dock during work and when I referred to it as a tablet a female collegue went off like "no, it's just like any other netbook, who needs that?".

Then I took the Tablet from the dock :-)

She's Apple addicted, so to say.

I have to say I love this thread. Much better than browsing on a jokes site or something.

Personally, I havn´t had any comparable encounters. At least not in the past 2 years or something.

I only remember that everybody was saying "Ooh..look at that, another iPhone clone." after they released the first two iPhones and all the other manufacturers jumped in on the touchscreen train.

Usually, those people didn´t understand the difference between immitating/cloning and evolution.

I recently made a group of computer science friends who are all on android, including one with a galaxy tab 10.1. After showing them a few things (they had no idea what root was, or what a launcher was for that matter) they said I gave new life to their phones. I told them imagine what I could do with an hour? , the guy with the OG Droid was so happy that he isn't going to buy the new iPhone anymore, he is just going to stay with his Droid.

Id like to see someone with an iPhone refresh their Original one is much that they don't want the newest tech.

Its for this exact reason that I despise apple. My best friend is getting a new phone in a bit on Verizon and I keep trying to convince her to get the GNex, but she refuses. "The iPhone is better, it can do this this and this" she'll say, and I'll say "Android has been doing all those things since the beginning" and she'll just brush it off.

The same thing happens when I bring my nook with ICS on it to school. Kids will come up to me while I'm using it and say "Is that an iPad?" and I try to tell them that it's actually a nook ereader that I've hacked to put android on but they just say "What's android? Is that like what they put on Droids? So its kind of like an iPad?" I've just resorted to telling them its an ipad from now on.

By far the worst, however, was when my my family and I were at dinner with some of my parents friends the other day. The wife pulled out her husband's and her phone (They share one, they were an older couple.) I asked what kind of phone it was (I believe it was the Galaxy S II.) She looked at her husband and asked. He replied "Oh it's the Samsung something. Samsung iPhone I think" Doh! His wife turned to me and confirmed. "Yup, its the Samsung iPhone." Double doh.

Apple is transforming the world with their marketing. And I dont like it one bit.

I tried to explain to my step-brother why I really wanted this tablet and was willing to spend 500 bucks on it. My main reason was for the keyboard and Tegra 3. I explained this thing has a keyboard that makes it into basically a laptop (I don't think he knows what a netbook is TBH). His response: "The iPad can do that a bunch of kids at school have them." So I asked him to show me this so called "laptop" iPad thing your friends have. After 10 minutes he gave up because he could only find the docks that they slide into like the Galaxy Tab. He does the same thing with his iPhone 4... Worst thing ever

A: You don't have to, they'll let you know.

Awesome tech version though!

And, my mom calls her OG Transformer an "iPad" - My brothers have been calling it that too. The worst part is, none of us live there, and talking to my brother about it the other day, I mentioned my mom complaining about her TF.. He said "oh, it's an iPad!" I explained it wasn't.. He argued that she must have taken her iPad back and got the TF, cause he was positive she had an iPad..

I've corrected her, told her to just call it a "tablet" and she now calls it her "iPad or whatever thing".
