[Motorola Droid RAZR] dgiaffe:
Thx for ur input gdmuscle, makes more sense now. I might risk it once there is a stable Ice Cream Sandwich ROM. I admit for now it is kind of useless to risk that much with the lack of ROM choices. Much appreciated!

And Chriskwan, yea, was much easier with the X10 lol. Good to see some canadians feeling the same way! Btw I am in contact with Moto to see when the update should arrive at Rogers.. Will make a thread if i get an update
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Azure1203:
After playing around with a Rogers Droid Razr the past 3-4 days trying to figure out ROMs and such, I can safely say I will never actually BUY this device.

There is WAY more community support for the Galaxy S2, and it is a lot easier to manage. Flashing via odin, is MUCH simpler. The stupid fastboot crap is annoying.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] danial.aw:
well for the razr its much easier than using odin i can assure u that...

1. get the root package and root your phone ... its a simple script u run and it does the rest...

2. get bootstrap.apk and cwm-on-boot.zip ... put the cwm zip in the root of your sd card (external sd)... install the bootstrap ... reboot into your recovery using the app... and then install the cwm on boot zip...

3. make nandroid backup (mad slow)

4. get the deodexed rom needed for arctic... wipe, install that

5. install Arctic...

thats the condensed guide ofcourse... just a few setup steps u need to follow...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Azure1203:
As opposed to what? Running SuperOneClick? Because that is all I did and it worked perfectly for my Galaxy S Captivate.

I should mention that just gives me root, but from there installing CWM was relatively easy, and there is nothing more complicated.

The Razr is a great device, but it is to me a PITA compared to the Galaxy S series in terms of Android Development.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 13i11y:
I wish i read that before i started to mess with my phone. I used a tutorial to try to add a custom rom to my phone and read people with rogers with success but i guess i was one of those who messed up. Now my phone just turns on and stays at the motorola screen

Hi people!

i recently got my phone(xperia x10i) back from my provider for a repair. it left with the software function 2.2.1 since i didnt update that often and liked what i had. before returning it i made a backup(every xperia should have that before the 2.3.3 update).

now i got it back, in with the 2.3.3 version and i discoverd quite alot of issues...

for so far ill name only the 2 most annoying issues.

1. bleutooth connection for sharing/playing media by bleutooth.(for example, bleutooth carkit, or wireless headphones connected by bleutooth).

when i press scan for devices, it ends up with no results! and in the previously software it worked all fine.

2. the back-up.

funny they made a back-up system, since every provider advises you to back-up your files on your SD card. wich i did. when i got it back, i was like searching for the back-up app but couldnt find it. eventualy i ended up in the contacts list and pressed the left button(3 buttons in the bottom like this| --- |) then a menu will popup giveing a few options, and i pressed the IMPORT CONTACTS button(with in the background a SIM card and a SD CARD). then it says: searching for vcard. and reply's when done(not finding it) with could not read memory card.

HELP ME OUT PLEASE!

i've been without music for 3 weeks, now i have my phone back i still cant listen to music! help me out!

ill get those contact back anyway, but i didnt expected it to do it the hard way.

since i releid on the back-up system.

(sorry for my bad language of english speaking, me no good with me englishhh)

just kidding, i just have little issue with grammar:P
[XPERIA X10 General] milton.bain:
Ok. Which device do you try to connect to Bluetooth? I have a SE MW600, it works.

Previous backup files from 2.1 won't work on 2.3 if you backedup using the phone's inbuilt app. If you had made a backup using titanium/mybackup/ultimate backup then it would have worked.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottypeterson:
Go to 4shared.com on your phone. Download an application called gingerbreak. Before you start you the app, on your phone go to settings/development/check debugging. Start application (gingerbreak) and let it do its thing. This worked on the older Optimus S with baseband VD, I don't know if it will work now. Just a heads up, this is the htc evo 4g forum so you probably shouldn't ask questions about Optimus S. Go to androidcentral.com and go to the Optimus S forums and read up on it there. Good luck!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
gingerbreak doesnt work on zvh if your on 2.3.3 anyways there is a tool in androidforums called zvhauto its very simple almost like a 1 click root and has very detailed instructions this will give root busybox and a custom recovery xiona 1.2.5.6 or something similar there are ways to get cwm5 but I've never done it good luck if you need a link ill provide one or if your lazy I can do it for you via teamviewer ;)

MS Flight Sim is MICROSOFT. Android is a direct competitor to Windows 8. So, No. It will never happen. The iPad version was not MS, I can assure you that.

Following all step, but when i clicked on the bottom of the page it should bring me a pop up window / new window to put my imei + email and got the unlock key. But it didn't work again right now.

Ok this is a thread I hope that will catch on. So basically I own an iPod and iPad and now I own an android phone and I love android phones, but there are still tons of features from iOS which I love and hope would be/have been implemented on updates

I'm sure most of you own an apple device and I just want this to be a thread where you describe features you love (even the smallest thing) on your apple devices that ANDROID DOES NOT HAVE and lets hope an android official would read it and add the features to future updates

Now let me Start off to say android NEEDs to have a stock ebook reader app, not from other providers that comes pre installed I'm taking like google books but better. I'm a readaholic and the apple iBooks is fabulous, I love the feature where you can go from day to night contrast, I know there is an app in the market with similar feature but its not easy on the eyes and just not comparable. Next is the dictionary I love the feature so if I didn't understand a word I would just highlight it and click on define and it would have the meaning and once again I know there is such a in an app in the market but it requires internet connection which is dumb, what if I'm in the subway reading and don't have reception.

Another feature I have come to love is the reader feature where it removes all the ads and everything from the main page and just has the words. I love this feature when I read long Wikipedia articles and stuff and once again it has the define for words I don't know also the feature where you can save it for future reading is awesome.

Most of you probably by now think I'm a nerd as i read alot but i just love reading, its like tv in your head of course doesnt beat the real thbfing but its fun to read. ANYWAYS There are tons of feature in-between I would like on the android but for now I'll leave to you guys to contribute what feature you want from apple to android, even the smallest lamest feature you might think. Sometimes the feature we want is already there but just not good enough which I totally get but anyways lets start contributing people.

You realize iBooks is Apple's attempt to copy the kindle app: dictionary, black and white contrast screen, and whispersync.

I like Apple products too--but for the record--Apple didn't invent the mp3 player, the smart phone, or the e book reader.

Check out the kindle app; it's free. And it has all the features you want.

And Kindle isn't limited to just one platform--- it's available for your PC, Android, iOS devices, Blackberries... Not sure if Symbian is supported. Either way, Kindle is universal.

Hey, you're not the only one who loves reading here. I do, too. Other than this phone, I also have a Desire HD and a Sensation XE (DHD is my first Android) and I prefer my main phones with big screen real estate, mainly because I read e-books on them. I have to admit that I still like the traditional books--- nothing like the smell and the texture of a new book and feeling it on your hands but I've come to know the advantages of e-books over paper books, mainly portability. With e-books and your phone, you can read anywhere and anything you like from your app's shelf without breaking your shoulder bones from all the carrying around of thick, heavy hardcovers. And there are many times of the day when I have nothing to do which could be better spent reading--- like waiting in line or during commercials if I'm watching TV. Besides, e-book copies are usually cheaper than real books so if I like something, I can go off and purchase it electronically and then if I find myself liking it, that's when I purchase the real thing.

Wtf? This thread has nothing to do with who copied who or what came first. It has to do with features that ios has that android doesn't. Let's not turn it into a debate of who had what first or who is better.

[Off-topic] gerbetta33:
Time for some intervention to get this thread back on its rails!

I think the one thing that iOS has that android needs is buttery smoothness. iOS has beautiful screen rotation animations, and hardly ever stutters when scrolling. Admittedly, the smooth scrolling has to do with how apple has true multi touch, while androids is emulated, but that has to do with how apple is a money grabbing pissfart corporation that thinks that they can patent everything and inhibit technological progression. But that is for a different thread.

/rant.

I also enjoy how iOS applications tend to look nice and more professional. 90% of Android apps look like they were designed for use with Windows 97. Nasty fluorescent colors, jagged edges, all around child like. Apple has to approve their apps before publishing which is good because the end user profits in that situation.

One last thing android needs is a good keyboard. Apples keyboard has special key prediction techniques that predict what keys will be pressed next and then makes that key's sensor area larger so that it is easier to press it. Also, when you long press text in iOS, you get a magnifying glass that makes it easier to fine tune text selection. I've only ever seen this in devices running sense UI. This needs to be universal.

(About the screen auto rotate animations, ice cream sandwich does a good job implementing it, its just that it still isn't as smooth, and ICS isn't readily available to most android phones without having to root, and even then, a lot of things are broken in ICS roms.

I can and I have. It is by far the best Rom out there, but this is beside the point. The point is to discuss what STOCK android needs, if I read the OP right. Plus MIUI doesn't offer the keyboard, animation, magnifying glass, or smoothness aforementioned.

Completely agree, the same issue on my previous Nokia phone. When I download apps it just looks so bugle because some apps look professional, some look pixelated, somenjust blank at times. In apple they are proffesional weather they are free apps or paid apps, they are all slick

Another thing I hope is in ics is emoticons, not talking about the original android faces. I'm talking the emoji ones from apple, I love those and some of it are funny, putting an emoticon on a text message like have a good day or good night just cheers people up (I have noticed).

Ok one feature from iOS that we need is when you download an app or contents from itunes or app store it requires you to type your account password after 15 minutes or so of not using the stores.

What do you mean by emulated?
[Off-topic] gerbetta33:
Apples multi touch is at a hardware level (the glass contains the actual technology.) Android system has multi touch at a software level. That's why when you download a multi touch tester app, if you take two fingers and move them too closely, they will bug out. From what I understand, if the system runs out of memory, multi touch, scrolling and other performance related variables stutters.

[Off-topic] tvall:
Um.... multitouch on capacitive displays is done in hardware. The only "emulated" multitouch I've ever seen was on resistive displays.

The g1 has hardware support for two point multitouch I think. Most newer devices have better.

Apple just puts much more effort into shinyness and smoothness than performance.

Edit: how would android do multitouch at a software level if, as you're suggesting, the device cannot tell between multiple points of contact? The screen would send a single point to the software, and it would read it as just that, a single point.

And multitouch on android works just as well on an iPhone as on a galaxy s (yes, I compared the two)

Old and no longer true. This was an issue on devices that didn't have multi-touch capabilities to start with and drivers were modified to work with them.

Ok for some reason we stop contributing but to get on track another feature we need is push email and email attachment

Currently I use the yahoo mail because the default email doesn't have push email which sucks and we need better attachment system for email

On my ipod attaching email is a breeze and it'll send the pictures together with the email when I click send there is no attaching crap unlike my yahoo app which takes forever to attach and is freaking annoying so every time I need to upload pictures I take on my phone which is super clear and always about 2.3 MB I have to upload to dropbox then save to my camera roll on my ipod and then email which is a long process and annoying

I really hope they'll do something about this on ics
