Weather Channel was the one I used for 9-10 months or so, then started using Accuweather which I really liked.

However, about a week ago I started using Weather View and I really like it.

Hoping they allow the ability to turn off the back/flipside of the live tile though, and add an easy one screen view of the next 5-10 days, but overall excellent.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
Accuweather for the live tile which looks great and tells me what I need to know.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emjlr3:
Amazing Weather is not bad

and has a nice live tile
[Windows Phone 7 General] angler:
Yes, I use Amazing Weather. The live tile displays current weather. I can justify between saving more battery and knowing current weather by choosing the interval to refresh the current weather.
[Windows Phone 7 General] svarog84:
Weather Master FTW :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
I second that. Shows all information I need on its double sided live tile which fits well into the whole metro design. My favorite weather app too. Closely followed by Amazing Weather.
[Windows Phone 7 General] davidvkimball:
WeatherLive

I agree! WeatherLive is my favorite. Metro-styled, fast, and has a live tile.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
I use Accuweather for the live tiles and Microsoft weather for the forecast. It's the fastest loading by far. I wish it would support live tiles :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nootubo:
HTC app is good
[Windows Phone 7 General] makoute:
I use Accuweather, and the HTC hub app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lovenokia:
nothing beats weather master, it shows the information in about 5-6 seconds and that is impressive, the other apps need more time to update the weather. weathermaster is not free but is certainly worth the money.
[Windows Phone 7 General] stevov:
weather view and weather duck just wish weather duck got rid of the ads
[Windows Phone 7 General] Windcape:
Since I live in Sweden, I prefer to use Weather View (formerly known as Vädret)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] btyork:
That's going to greatly diminish the value of the international notes if that's true.

The first one looks fake... they even mention you're actually buying it from Expansys.

I don't trust no-name sites like these, as they OFTEN mis-represent the items as new when they're refurbs or open boxes..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
So I bricked my E4GT, as some of you may know....thanks to touch recovery. Anyway, I brought my E4GT to Sprint and they ordered a replacement. For the time being they gave me some old Sanyo flip phone that I couldnt stand. I was browsing craigslist and saw a guy saying he hated his iphone and just wanted to get rid of it. So I bought it for cheap.....real cheap. Its an iphone 4s 32gb, and I dont like it. I was really dissapointed. I am amazed at how these PoS's sell for more than the E4GT. I dont know....I guess that I am just partial to Android or something, but I cant wait to get my E4GT back.

As the old saying goes "You dont know what you've got, until its gone"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
what did you pay for it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
$200 10char
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bear gri11z:
Sell that **** for profit in the marketplace
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
I am....and its on craigslist.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
ill take it off your hands for 200. my brother wants one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
I have a guy downtown offering $425 cash. Lol, I was pretty amazed that the dude sold it to me....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
Looks like a bad esn or soon gonna be bad esn.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
No, its activated on my account right now. Im using it until I get my E4GT.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globalninja:
Get a USB jig so you can handle bricks by yourself.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthejoker20:
Sucks for you.

Why would you want something that everyone has? Thats gay.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
It was a hard brick. I have a USB jig, it didnt work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
did you jailbreak it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
I didnt "want" it, I thought I could make some money on it....which I will.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] uptownhustle:
shiftr182 , Good luck in making your money back!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
DEFINITELY jailbreak it:

Not saying its gonna cure your woes, but jailbreaking made ALL the difference for me with a free iPad I got....(Android themes, installous (free appstore), Dreamboard, etc....

(Coincidence, my ET4G is now worthless as well: I hard-bricked it flashing one of these new "leaks": I do have Best Buy "black tie" insurance on it, but it doesn't cover "lost" devices, like Asurion might, and which would have been my "go-to" story.)

Since I probably couldn't expect a repair/replacement on a device that, upon a more detailed inspection, was obviously rooted, re-rommed multiple times, had experimental firmware installed, etc., the last option I'm considering is praying to the Good Lord to forgive me for bricking such a wonderful device (which WOULD be covered, lol..)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
It's a girly phone. Ever since Evo4g, anything less than 4.3" is unacceptable. Ever since widgets and live wallpapers, anything less is also unacceptable.

BTW, I also bricked my ET due to touch recovery. I sent it for a jtag unbrick service ($50). With overnight shipping and usb jig, it will end up costing about $100.

$50 for an unbricking service.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
Sprint replaced mine because of manufacturer defect....the only sign of life on my phone was the blue light...download mode didnt work, recovery didnt work....I even tried sending power to different parts of the ciruit board thinking I might "jump" it or something. As far as sprint knows: "I pulled the battery, tried turning it back on, and this is all it does". Im not lieing or anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
Shocker you didn't like it:rolleyes:

But already you make money out of it right :D

I bought HTC evo from craiflist and the guy didnt pay his bill and sold to me i could activate but soon sprint gonna be calling u.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Whoa hang on there partner. Even without TEP, we'll (sprint) still replace it for 35. Just go in and tell them it's not turning on. We have no way of knowing if a phone is bricked because of modding lol, because well, its bricked.

And besides, rooting doesn't void it with sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob4828:
Both of my friends have iphone4s. I get bored with using it after about thirty secs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RedXXII:
If the device has a different splash screen on boot up, that is definitely a way to tell. Also rooting is not covered by any means thought Total Equipment Protection. If anyone came into my store with an Epic that booted up with a GTi9100 splash screen, I'd say that person ODINed an international build and they would have to pay the $100 deductible. Now no sign of any tampering is a completely different story...;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Likewise for me, I play with my brothers iPhone 4S from time to time, and it's just *yawn* pretty quickly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
I got rid of my E4GT for an AT&T iPhone 4S... I have a love/hate relationship with it. On one hand, everything feels far more polished and elegant on it, from the design and build quality to the OS. It has a lot more games available and the overall quality of the the games are superior. On the other hand, the screen is too small, homescreen customization is severely lacking (gonna jailbreak soon so that might change), battery life sucks, Siri doesn't work for sh*t, no smart dialer, no native navigation, no usb storage, FAR more crashes than on E4GT (truth!), having to use iTunes sucks, and many more things that give me a headache to think about.

I really miss my E4GT and android in general, but I am now locked into this thing so no going back for me. I have been looking for a GSII on craigslist so I can swap between the two phones. AT&T is selling their variant off contract for $450, which isn't that bad so I might just do that and get a new one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
Turd.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Man, that's an awful lot of negatives.... I feel for ya.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] prasket:
Until two weeks ago I was a HUGE apple fan boy, I had had every iPhone since the day the 3G hit the apple stores. I am now a full fledged Android lover with my E4GT in hand. I laugh thinking back at all of the times I smack talked my friends with droids, it was a long road but at least the lesson has been learned...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
I'm sorry but that's incorrect. It's stated very clearly in our M&Ps that rooting is something only to be taken note of, and constitutes a tier 2 repair (free with TEP, 35 without). The only exception, as was emailed to us recently when the new S&R experience guidelines were unveiled, is the iPhone.

I'm not going to rehash that again, but your last comment is what I was getting at: even if you end up being serviced by a tech unwilling to help, hard bricked means hard bricked; I.e, no splash screen, odin, etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] humdrum2009:
Apple makes great products but the lawsuit crap its getting out of hand. Makes me really not like the whole apple theology.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Btw, just checking... what's the guy's name that created this "amazing" touch recovery for the ET4G?

Surely he's been of some help with your ($100) issue...

I'm sorry, and I couldn't care less if it gets me banned from this site, but eff 100% of everything that irresponsible developer puts out:

Time and time again, things like this happen, and time and time again, they're swept under the rug.

It's wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
You take the damn responsibility for what you flash don't you guys see the disclaimers
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
They way I see it, I choose to root my phones. I choose to flash stuff that sometimes isnt that safe. I also choose to pay for insurance, and as long as the phone doesnt boot, I get a replacement for free.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Nope, that's bull**** in this case:

He's knowingly left flashable software up that has hard evidence of bricking devices..

I can't recall an instance right now, but .....

Oh wait.

Yes I can.

Right fu*king now, for example....

THAT is his history, and THAT is unacceptable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I noticed in the hitman thread there's no disclaimer, so....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I'd say if you follow their install instructions to the letter and it bricks, then stop allowing it to be downloaded anymore. I don't know for sure but I thought I read that there are a couple of hardware versions out there. Maybe that might have something to do with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
I doubt that very much. Why would he do that?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikeyinid:
Not calling anyone a liar but I doubt the touch recovery bricked your phones. I've been using it since I got my epic touch with no issues.

@ the op. if you need an epic touch, pm me. I could probably hook you up if you really hate that iPhone.

@ the guy saying hawkin is bricking phones. This is from him

“@SteadyHawkin: @mikeyinid its not ours its koushs. Issues are caused from people flashing it from Rom manager”

Why would he leave it up if it was bricking phones. Makes no sense.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
Was it ****ing bad karma?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ccline84:
How the F are you going to try to blame this on the devs? If you don't know by now that flashing involves some kind of risk than you can GTFO. I don't see anyone else who bricked their phone pointing fingers at the devs... oh wait, that's because they've read the multiple disclaimers and stickies saying that you're possibly risking your phone everytime you flash. Derp.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Not sure if this is directed at me or at Koush/Rom Manager. If its directed toward me your trippin, I have seen no one post any issues in my thread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikeyinid:
Ignorance runs rampant in the Sprint phone forums at XDA. No doubt about that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
See post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22775104&postcount=39

I already said/implied that flashing was a personal responsibility of the flasher. That's why I paid $100 to get a jtag unbricking service for my phone. I don't blame anyone by myself for the bricking.

At the same time, saying that it is entirely my stupidity that led to bricking my phone is unfair. The touch recovery did brick my and other people's phones. There is no denying that. Look at the posts...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
I'm pretty sure Mazook98 is directing his comments for Koush ftr, he's done the same thing in other threads.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
From email to jtag service. This is what led to the bricking.

I'd like to know where I messed up if the touch recovery is indeed flawless...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:


Sorry if it was vague:

Steady, my comments had nothing whatsoever to do with you....

Edit:

The QUOTE of this thread goes to whomever said:

"Why would he leave it up if it's bricking phones?......Makes no sense."

.

.

.

EXACTLY.

THAT'S THE POINT I'M TRYING TO MAKE.

There's a good way to check if it's still "left up", too.

1.)Is it still bricking these devices?

2.)Is it (Rom Manager) still available in the Market for our device, and does it still say it's compatible with our device?

3)If both 1) and 2) are true, (which, as of right now, they are), then there's just something wrong.....

Something that, as you put it:

"Makes no sense."

I'm looking at craigslist just to see if I could find a deal like you and I found like 2-3 that are selling for $300. I know Craigslist is also full of scammers so I'm hesitant, but is $300 a good deal for an iPhone 4s used?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patokeefe:
It's a very decent deal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Thanks, I wouldn't get one for myself, but maybe one of my siblings would like it. I was just checking on "street price" of the iPhone. lol

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
The recovery I was using was downloaded from clockworkmod.com. The problem was that the recovery froze. I had cleared my caches and was trying to go back to the main menu and it wouldnt do anything. I pulled the battery and that was the end of the story. No more worky.....

so this weekend i broke my htc mogul... loved that thing..

so we upgraded our plan.. kinda sucks we never upgraded cuz of cost.. ($70 now $181!!!)

but anyway.. my wife and son have ipods.. and my wife wants an ipad and an iphone.. i had apple and the ipods are meh... ok....

well I got the Epic 4G Touch and she got the iPhone 4s... well she was more frustrated trying to set it up and im the one not used to the droid.. i was on the couch enjoying myself while she spent all day in the kitchen on the computer (desktop) connected to iTunes... i cant stand proprietary stuff like that...

im loving mine.. she will love hers eventually... :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob4828:
Dnt know much about recoveries but why couldnt you flash another recovery other than touch recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patokeefe:
I'm in total agreement. Apple made a good product, it's not for for everyone and that's okay. People need to lay off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] YoungAceAtlanta:
I say you can't blame CWM Recovery.. i think its something to do with ICS leaks and the way they work.. Half you "including me" flash both leaks that was only about 5hours apart from each other where devs was just pushing updates out as fast as people fix a bug.. N the 2nd leak wasn't even fully rooted.. SU didnt even work.. we couldn't even flash a recovery so right there should of been a big no no..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
As much as I'm itching to flash ICS, I'm just gonna wait for a flashable ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
My ex wife had an iPhone...Only thing good on it was the camera.. Lol. I'm going all "Galaxy series!" Samsung makes amazing phones and the devs REALLY hook em up!!

Damn you ripped his nuts of with that price you can sell it on Ebay for like 500.00 easy I saw them on there at Christmas for 700.00 but I will give 6.00 and you pay for shipping if you want though because my daughter wants one lol just messing around
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jtsv:
Whoa hang on there partner. Even without TEP, we'll (sprint) still replace it for 35. Just go in and tell them it's not turning on. We have no way of knowing if a phone is bricked because of modding lol, because well, its bricked.

Where is everyone getting $35 replacement phone sprint has never offered a $35 replacement for either of our 2 iPhone 4s, 1 Epic G or 1 Epic 4G touch that are on my family plan. Asurion is $8/mthly per Epic phone and Apple Care was a buy in plan although each of these smart phones have $100 replacement cost so how does one get a $35 replacement?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
Nah, once he activates it on his account, they can't do much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tprince1225:
If you pay for sprint TEP everything is covered. The only time you have to pay $100 is if the device is lost/stolen, water damaged, or DBR( Damageable beyond repair) I.E. 2 or more cracks bigger than an inch, circuit board damage, takes 3 or more parts to repair etc. Everything else is free of charge.

If you don't pay sprint TEP and something happens besides those things I mentioned above, if we need to replace the device or a part the fee is only $35. And if one of those above mentioned scenarios happened without TEP you are SOL.

And for the iPhones, apple care + is $99 up front and covers the device for 2 years. You get only 2 accidental claims. And depending on if you purchased apple care + the replacement cost $49/$199 . And we are told you have to go through apple. We need to get approval from our srss to order them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jtsv:
Ok that makes sense now to add to it a bit.... took my bricked E4GT into Sprint repair yesterday and since it was a replacement phone from Asuirion TEP they are replacing it again for free this time because the replaced phone has a 1 year warranty.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DCRocks:
Factory wipe on any ICS leak is known to cause a brick.

From all I read, this is an issue in ICS itself, as it will happen with a 100% stock leak. There is a massive amount of discussions and threads on this very issue.

As such, from all I can tell, no matter your recovery, if you are running an ICS leak, and do a factory wipe, you have the chance of bricking your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
I played with am iPhone yesterday at the Apple store and it just felt "cartoonish" to me. I used to love my ipod touch back in the day. Apple really needs to change things up a little, not a fan-boy like most on here but iOS is getting really dated. Feels like Froyo.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
I definitely did a factory reset on an ics ROM with this very phone, strange.
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
This is not for my phone, but a friends...

Got an HTC EVO 3D with HBoot 1.5 that was unlocked with the HTC Unlocker Tool (from the HTC website). User had clockworkmod touch installed and tried to install ViperROM. Getting an error message (status 1) that looks like it is due to the ClockWorkMOD Touch version. He tried to downgrade the version to 5.0.2.0 and in doing so (did it from ROM Manager), he can no longer get in CWM. When booting to recovery via hboot, ROM Manager or Quick Boot, it shows the white HTC screen, then a plain black screen, then just reboots his phone back to the white HTC screen again.

Now he can't get into any CWM recovery. He's tried several different versions and can't get anything to work. I tried to flash the recovery 5.0.2.0 via fastboot and it says it was successful but it still won't boot into it.

Not sure where else to look for this one.
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
Just tried to flash via fastboot TWRP and no dice either. It said it was successful too.
[HTC EVO 3D] metalfan78:
Did you check to see if 'fastboot' is unchecked. Its in settings, power.

Are u trying to get into recovery after starting fast boot and it not working? Or just rebooting the phone into recovery? Since there is still no s off for 1.5 the only way to get to recovery is through fastboot
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
I'm not sure that's correct.

He had CWM 5.0.2.0 that worked fine and he had the Touch CWM and it worked minus flashing ViperROM (possibly more, we did not try). He was able to launch CWM with a recovery reboot in ROM Manager, PowerButton and Quick Boot.
[HTC EVO 3D] wasnt:
Holy crap this guy's phone sucks ass...

So, he flashed CWM back on 09/11/11 (which i think he was on hboot 1.4 or 1.3). He then flashed Synergy via CWM. He then tried to take an OTA update which failed but updated his hboot to 1.5. He hasn't flashed another ROM until just now.

He had the old CWM from before, and he is able to get the touch version (but it's usage is limited due to S-ON).

I'm just going to get him to flash a new ROM through fastboot and use 5.8.0.1 CWM Touch for nandroids, which still do work. I was able to get that CWM installed back on his device without a problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
See the Guide/Flashing notes in my signature, i think it will help you out. Fyi, I've found only a few specific recovery versions work on my Hboot 1.50, Unlocked, S-On Evo3d.
