Ya, anything that encodes and decodes is very likely to do it at a slightly different rate, so synchronization would be very difficult. Even if you could get them started at the same time, they will probably slip out of sync after some time, too. This goes for the idea of just pushing "play" at the same time. Music playing at slightly different rates may sound the same to us, but will shortly fall out of sync.

On the other hand, to broadcast only a few hundred feet you could probably get something at a computer store that would handle it. I know I picked up a $10 FM transmitter meant for iPods and CD players to connect them to a car stereo. It transmits from my computer to my stereo about 50ft away with no problem, though I haven't tested the limits. It would be easy enough to just plug it into your DJ machine and set all the cars to the same radio station. You could try sticking it to the top of the car and see how far away the other cars still get a clear signal. If it's not enough, you could probably pop it open and extend the antenna a little and get better range.

You ought to have good line of sight on the other members of your caravan.. While I'd recommend keeping the DJ in the center of the pack, even if all five cars were strung along you ought to get good signal from front to back. Just don't get too separated (finding ways to manage that is half the fun of caravaning).

I'll echo what was said above and recommend you preload your songs on all the devices. Streaming synchronized audio is simply impractical. *Playing* all the songs at the same times might be more doable. Maybe. Your mileage may vary, etc etc.

Hello, to everyone !

This is bootanimation like LCARS from Star Trek :)

I know that it works on FeraLab ROM, but probably it will work for all.

I was searching for some nice bootanimation for my Xperia X10, because I didn't like FeraLab's (please don't feel offended)...even if it's one of the best ROMs available for our X10s.

So I found this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=701574

I like it, so I made a flashable zip for Xperia X10...you can flash it thru xRecovery.

Here is the youtube link:

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Locutus5382:
Ok,

I updated the boot animation and added some new frames.

The EVO 4G singes and the name bellow are removed, and it has been customized for X10.

Hope you like it.

Sweet! Love it, do you know if there are any quality lcars themes?

sent from my X10 running feralab's 11.2 gaming rom, DooMKerneL v6.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] tomgus1:
Absolutely love it :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Locutus5382:
I no other LCARS themes :((((

But I am planing to update this boot animation with more Star Trek feel and maybe to last little bit longer ntil end of boot process.

It would be nice if we could add LCARS font but every font I found makes reading on the device little hard.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Athalon:
Awesome, its very nice, but its over too fast... ;-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Locutus5382:
I will make another bootanimation that last longer and maybe some movement like a scanner and similar.

This is just the beginning.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Athalon:
Now if only someone had made a LCARS theme for one of the many lanchers, that would be cool. if i find it, i'll let you know
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Nice write up . Each phone has cons and pros. I like the amount of roms and root option on the EVO 3D hate bloatware
[HTC EVO 3D] pwrmedia:
Good job, sir.

It's always refreshing to read reviews this far along into a phone's release, especially with two phones such as these. Reason being, there will always be those who purchased a phone on or around the release date, and may have been swayed by pre-release reviews or initial release reviews. Months (or in some cases, days) later, the inevitable hint of flip-flopdom or regret sinks in, and the decision to buy another phone off-contract sets in. Additionally, there are those who bought a phone off-contract and are currently in their upgrade period; users such as myself who are holding out as long as possible for an LTE release rather than burning the upgrade on an older Wimax phone, for example.

These mid-release reviews help to quench or fuel the desire to ditch the current phone and toy around w/ the competition. Phones that have been out 6+mo typically get left out of the review mix as writers tend to constantly focus on upcoming models...understandably so. But I'm willing to bet there are good number of folks who appreciate reviews such as these when the antsy feeling sets in that a ROM flash just won't cure. :D Thanks again for the write-up!

[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
And that's why you're on Boost instead of Sprint

OP, nice job done! I agree with pretty much everything you said. I looked over the roms in that section just last week. There are some nice looking ones but none of the devs are "Recognized Developers".
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Lol recognized developer is a application u fill out to get. Seen a few good roms from folks that don't have the thing. Just cause they don't have the label doesn't mean the rom is bad some just don't have time to fill a application out others are just happy pumping roms out..

Some roms are sweet lol. Tho some phones don't have a lot of dev support due to root support and phone popularity ..
[HTC EVO 3D] Steven 1:
Lol too funny
[HTC EVO 3D] PoorCollegeGuy:
While there are far more Rec Devs for the Evo 3D, the point I was going for was that the ROMs here are more unique. MeanROM boats 3000 quadrant scores and high battery life, Myn's Warm boasts a beautiful theme with some improvement tweaks. There's Fresh ROM which (if my memory from the Evo 4g serves me right) is a stock ROM with nothing missing that's been lightly modded for a better experience. Then we have 2 CyanogenMod 7 ROMs (hopefully the bugs get fixed for those some day), a CyanogenMod 9 ROM (alpha), a Sense 4.0 preview, a couple stable Sense 3.5 Roms, MIUI, a couple of Sony Bravia/Xloud ROMs, etc etc.

For the Epic Touch, there's a CM7 I wouldn't trust to test (not even allowed on XDA), let alone use, there's MIUI but it's not complete (yet)...then you have a dozen or so ROMs that have almost exactly the same features but are themed slightly differently. Go look, they all have TSM Parts, Maddoggin's lockscreen Mod and/or an AIO mod done by crawrj. Then it's MAYBE one or two original tweaks or features (like calk's htc_ime keyboard mod). There's basically no difference between the ROMs besides the "light theming" so the experience is almost exactly the same between ROMs. I can't sacrifice battery life for more speed, they all have the same battery and speed tweaks. The last month I had the phone, I was using Team Nocturnal's Sony Bravia Port ROM, because it was the only one that was any different from the others.

/rant :P lol but yes, it is nice to have more "trustworthy" individuals devving for us here. I hope they stick around and release even more stuff once HTC catches up releasing the source for the kernel.

Nice article. I would however mention that the E4GT does get a decent amount of development, while not as much as the EVO 3D, it's still getting it. And even if Bubby made CM7, why's it hindering the E4GT development scores?

Hey dude! the guy I sold my e4gt to actually hates it. if you go to the documentation thread and find him, you might be able to get it back off of him (he's looking to sell it). Couldn't get used to it.

Winners post the pic IN the post, not as an attachment ;)

Sweet thanks dude! That worked :)

Becuase Bubby didn't make CM7, about half a dozen people made CM7 and Bubby simply swiped their Git, made his own, compiled it and released it. Remember, it's not allowed on XDA for a reason ;) Keep in mind I'm also an XDA Writer, and as such base my development scores on what's actually on XDA. Plus, I am not a fan of Rootzwiki. All the trolls go there and pretend like they weren't a part of the "XDA problem" they spend all day complaining about over there.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great phone...it's just a very... homogeneous atmosphere. A lot of the "same stuff" being re-released under a different name and theme. The phone is still very nice.

[HTC EVO 3D] parmend:
Nice post , having both I would clearly say the epic is ahead of the 3d . Your right about the epic dev support not being as much as the 3d. IMO touchwiz isnt as bad as some people make it out to be . Its fast , clean , and I would prefer it right now over sense . Now that might change when sense 4.0 comes out ,but sense is just too slow . Build quality is superb on the epic, the 3d has a nice build also but IMO the epic wins that catigorty. Light isn't always cheap, Both are good phones!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Scougar:
Nice write up :-)

What about the screen on the E3D? You haven't commented either way, but couldn't praise the Samsung's screen enough.
[HTC EVO 3D] bryce850:
I have both too I like our devs here which is why I keep my 3d but I like the epic touch more . Nothing downing the 3d just each person has different tastes on somethings.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
OP: If you haven't used an Anthrax Kernel by Chad yet... you are missing out on the best part of owning an Evo3D. He doesn't release on XDA anymore though. Too many jealous wannabe dev's in different forums threatening him so he stopped XDA releases. Check forums.infectedrom.com though, you can get his kernels there.

Seriously, if you haven't yet. do it yesterday. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] PoorCollegeGuy:
Sorry about that :P The screens are actually give and take. On the 3vo, the screen is clearer. As far as I can tell, text looks better, reading is easier and I really like the smaller icons, it just seems like everything fits better. On the Epic Touch, though, the color is far better. It's interesting because if you theme everything black, it actually looks like the only parts of the screen that bothered to light up were the non-black parts. Very deep, the blacks were. Very vibrant colors. Definitely funner to play games on because of the screen size and color. Don't get me wrong, I have my 4 emulators on my Evo 3D, but the controls are a little smaller and the colors seem a little more...flat, I guess I'd have to put it.

They're both great screens in their own respects (one is obviously targeted toward multimedia, the other targeted at clarity/business), but when HTC starts giving us Sprint users 720p screens, I won't be sad to see the qHD go ;)

In my post, I tried to make both phones sound equally good in their own ways. If you want a UI that looks good and works well, you go HTC Sense. If you want a phone that's blazing fast with a bigger screen, you go Epic Touch. Frankly, I'm a big fan of widgets and having a red/white email widget with a green/yellow/white calender widget with a black/green clock widget and a blue/yellow weather widget with a green battery icon and blue overscroll glow, black menus but a gray notification pull down with green power widget buttons just didn't work for me. I mean granted they work okay, but it looks like the coloring book of a 3 year old and for a phone that powerful, you kind of expect more. Plus, the 4 icon launcher is very iOS and adds even less to the overall look of it. HTC Sense maybe bloated, but both it and Touchwiz work perfectly fine. At least HTC Sense looks like one single thought. Once you strip it down (by that I mean flash AOSP), they're both dual core processor phones and the performance is actually very similar despite the superior chipset. Are we even getting Sense 4.0?

I've been looking for a good kernel, so I'll be checking it out. Haven't been to Virus' website since my OG Evo days :P can't wait to see what it can do!
[HTC EVO 3D] w0rdOo:
Very interesting article. I did a lot of research before getting my Evo 3D because I wanted to figure out which phone had a bigger development community and more options. I went with the 3D luckily, and I love it :)

I did HATE it when it was on the 2.08 baseband with the stock ROM because it was too laggy for me, but once I got to flashing custom ROMs I remembered why I liked HTC so much.

While you're over on Virus's site, you ought to check out InfectedROM Eternity (I use sense 3.0 but there are 3.0 and 3.5 versions available). It's by far the fastest ROM on the new baseband that I've used and I've had no issues with flashing the latest nightlies as V releases them. He makes one solid, buttery smooth ROM (and I haven't even tried Chad's kernel yet because the stock one is already so smooth, I don't need more speed.)
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Welcome to the Evo 3D section! You almost lost me with the "traded down to the 3vo" (fyi 3vo is a dirty word;)), but you did a great job of covering both phones.

While it's true the 3D's GPU is older, the CPU itself still has quite a bit of potential. The LTE versions of the GS2 are using the same Snapdragon CPUs and I believe test on par with their Exynos siblings. Although HTC seems to be playing catch up to Samsung when it comes to optimizing their ROMs.
[HTC EVO 3D] PoorCollegeGuy:
I used Virus' ROMs back when I had the OG Evo and he does some great work. I've been running MeanROM, Warm TwoPointThree (Sense 3.0 version) and MIUI (I had to get Sixaxis working lol, it's too bad we don't have HDMI mirroring on AOSP yet :( )

I'll definitely be flashing InfectedROM eventually, just making my way around the forums and flashing everything I can to get a feel for what to recommend. So far, I've been very impressed with what I've been flashing.

Hello xHausx, I remember some of your work from the OG Evo it's good to see you made your way here :) I do agree, it's too bad that HTC hasn't taken a shine to a more streamlined approach to their skin, but I'm hoping that Sense 4.0 is as great as I've been hearing. It'd be nice to get the "bloat" argument out of Sense, because it is such a nice skin over Android and I've always enjoyed it a lot. Samsung did it with Touchwiz, but as mentioned they don't seem to care how it looks and that makes it hard to fall in love with.

I actually didn't know the CPU was keeping up with Exynos so well, I'd love to read more about it if you have any links handy :)

I should've put "trading down" in quotes lol, it was meant as a joke. It's definitely a solid trade sideways.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Most of what I've heard about GS2's with Exynos chips has been here say, but I also remember seeing an Engadget review awhile back that said they where both similar performance wise. I got to play around with a skyrocket for a few minutes yesterday and while the UI is definitely smoother, I didn't see any stuttering whatsoever, the Evo 3D feels more responsive.

Now if the E3d had a hardware accelerated browser I would stick it out. But once the Sprint version of the One X drops I'm there.
[HTC EVO 3D] I'M NOT YELLING:
My friend is looking to replace her Evo. The shoddy build quality and general feel for the device has left her wanting more, now that she's more of a power user with her phone. I came here to see if the E4GT had a contender. I found my answer and many laughs on the very first thread I clicked on, convenient.

Yeah, good luck shattering this.

-HTC Sense

-Beautiful

Pick one. The gloss. It's everywhere. Sense being a moot point for most anyone who replaces their launcher.

Yeah, the development scene on the E4GT side is pretty slim at the moment. For Gingerbread, at least. With leak builds of ICS coming out at a rapid pace over there so far, if the latest and greatest is what matters to you then the E4GT is where it's at. The unofficial CM9 over there has almost everything working except for video recording, I believe.

They're both well built, don't kid yourself. I don't like heft and I don't want a constant reminder the phone is in my pocket. See how this works?

laughingwhores.png

My sides. This is a good one. How long has the Evo 3D been out now? Keep holding your breath, I'm sure the release is right around the corner. Seriously though, what the ****? This phone has been out for ****ing MONTHS. HTC, are you even trying?

Buyer's remorse general. Thanks for the laughs. Going from an Evo to an Evo 3D is about as much of an upgrade from Pinto to a Yugo. The kernel source still not being released is mind boggling. The 1.5 bootloader? Nail in the coffin.

My gf has my old evo 3d.. she was coming from a hero... And she still thinks the evo 3d is a horrible device.. I put every ROM on it so far and all of them have their own problems... (in her eyes)

Im glad to see a good comparison but the epic touch has more going for it (software wise) and still imho has better hardware...

Cameras you cant even compare HTC skimped out

The only thing I enjoy about the 3d is the resolution.... But with a big bright beautiful screen that I can see in the sun light and density changer im still happy...

sprint and HTC FAILED hard with the 3d (marketing and support) still no kernel source smfh

And development?

Op says they are the same ROM but just different themes and tweaks?

Maybe because sense has what 4 different builds in under a year?

3.0,3.5,3.6,4.0? Of course you are gonna have more roms when a manufacturer has to push out contstant fixes/sense changes

Samsung developers get different builds from leaked roms.. Funny how you guys dont have a single leak for the cdma 3d specifically (rather than other models similar i.e. sensation/gsm models)

All in all the 3d WAS a good device... for the first few months... But kinda fell off...

In the same sense the epic touch WAS a good device... Its just outlasting the 3d IMO

Both of these phones are on there way out just like laat years variants...

The *insert manufacturer here* God that you're referring to can be said to anyone in this conversation whether they support their Samsung God or HTC God. And while not directly insulting, the phrasing of some of those sentences can be construed as condescending, ergo mocking, ergo insulting. That's just from the prospective of an innocent bystander with a thread I don't want derailed ;)

However, the important part of your post is "Ok well looks like the epic touch won the development movement..." And, from experience, I can say "not by a long shot, sir". We have Sense 3.0, 3.5 and a pre-alpha of 4.0 with not 1, not 2 but 3 CM7 kangs, a CM9 (maybe more, I've only seen one), MIUI and many kernels. The only drawback? No kernels on 2.17...yet. The Epic Touch has Touchwiz with 2.3.4, 2.3.7 (with NO Google Wallet support) and 4.0.3 leaks with 1 CM7, 1 MIUI and a clusterf*ck of a CM9. In terms of development here in the forums, and in other forums, the 3vo beats Epic Touch development with the proverbial baseball bat.

Thank you!

Getting phone burn out is completely acceptable. Truth be told that's why I wanted to check out the 3vo to begin with. Got tired of having the same 6 ROMs to flash over and over again. There's other things that help with the 3vo, like Skins (theme my phone without needing to flash a theme or change ROMs) that the Epic Touch doesn't have. I was considering the Photon, but this has more longevity than many of its owners will admit to. Especially once we get the ICS that HTC promised would be coming along soon.

Frankly, I have the 3vo until this summer's Evo comes out (not long til CTIA, which is when HTC typically announced the new Evo). Saving up early so I can be a release day yuppie :D $20 says it'll be called the "HTC EVO HD" :P :P jk

And BTW that is a old old old article about HTC's "stance" on ICS for the evo 3d... Its a shame because the evo 3d is a good device I think it should get ics first on sprint because it took the "evo" name... But meh..

For the record, everyone complains about this, but not many have actually gone through some drops to speak from actual experience. Yesterday I tripped and fell on a concrete sidewalk and dropped my phone from about 3.5 feet onto pavement. The battery door came off, and the battery fell out, but aside from a scratch at the bottom of the phone, the phone survived in decent shape. I put the battery back in, and door back on, and fired it up and it works just the same.
