[Windows Phone 7 General] Aphasaic2002:
I don't see how giving away free phones is a positive thing?! It just shows that people like free stuff; many of these free devices will just end up on craigslist and ebay anyway.

There really aren't enough phones being given away to affect sales; The whole point of this campaign is *publicity*,in the media and online. "WP7 is not the fastest phone regarding hardware, but it can do tasks faster than Android and iOS5".

Now try going to google news or twitter and search for "smokedbywindowsphone". A majority of stories are negative and are about MS cheating. Is this really good publicity?
[Windows Phone 7 General] uptempo777:
I would say it's still good publicity cause people are trying them and hearing about them. There will be a decent amount of those users that try it and really like the OS experience.

In addition, if they are being sold on craigslist and ebay, then there will be someone eventually buying it and using it.

It's got the word out regardless of the few claims of cheating.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lil_dipo@yahoo.com:
its still getting more wp7 in the hands of people and you just made a negative general assumption that most would sell it so it almost seems like you are trying to not see a positive side to this.

just like you think people are going to sell it,there are two sides to the coin, it could happen that maybe a majority use it because they like it whether its free or not.

Most people like i said who were there are not trying to win so your point of ms cheating is on internet blogs who are a minority of people who actually want to win. I was participated and i was in line for about 2 hrs from 8-30am till about 10-45am and there were about a good 70 ppl ahead of me and another 70+ behind me and talking to people,they all knew it was a chance to get a free phone no contract and thats all they wanted.Im sure there might have been maybe a handfull or a score of ppl who try to win everyday but i would even doubt that because of the line so its almost not worth but thats my opinion not fact.

it seems like you have something personal against windows phone, This is the most publicity that i have seen people line up for a wp7 and that can only be a good thing :)

Try to see the positive side to this :D its not as negative as the internet makes it out to be,i would agree with you that if you actually go to win it could be seen as a publicity failure but most of the ppl there just want a free phone so thats the positive side to it
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kawaisa:
Bad publicity or not, I just sold my T-Mo Galaxy S2 on ebay after getting the Lumia 710 from the promo. That's not to say that my next phone will be a WP7 device and it will probably be another android device but at least I get a taste of this OS and that's probably what Microsoft is trying to get at.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
where is the line for the class action ? there has to be a billion lawyers chomping to get a piece of the huge m$ pie.

hmm, looks like the updated rules disqualify both m$ and the competitors: no pre-setup allowed for weather widgets ?

man what a sham.

they could have made this so awesome: just spent $1billion on the ad, free phones, and spreading the hardware like crack. oh well. foiled again.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Nearly every company on the planet gives away free stuff. Frequently. I enter facebook giveaways, engadget giveaways, etc cuz it costs me nothing and someone has to win.

You have to look at the big picture when you are in marketing. These giveaways raise awareness and brand recognition. The more people that know you, the more likely you are to get a sale.

Some people will ebay the phone/laptop. Some people will give it to their babies to play with. But people will talk about it. And unfortunately, bad publicity is better than none.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Master Devwi:
I think Microsoft has been very smart with "Smoked by Windows Phone." As others in this thread have mentioned, it has managed to keep Windows Phone in the news for a few weeks. And every time it's brought up, it's about how Windows Phone is faster (or purports to be faster) than the competition.

The prizes only make people even more excited. And while some of the competitors might only be interested in winning something, it does help get more devices onto the market. Those that walk away with a free device are likely to enjoy Windows Phone. They, in turn, will tell their friends, who will go out and buy new devices like the Lumia 900.
[Windows Phone 7 General] uptempo777:
So what's the difference between the new rules and the old rules? The first 100 per day, per store get their choice of a Windows Phone and the following 500 get a $25 gift card. Are those the main differences?
[Windows Phone 7 General] lil_dipo@yahoo.com:
pretty much and i think you get to choose the challenge this time also.
[Windows Phone 7 General] uptempo777:

Delivery question

Does anyone have a sense of when the phones are going to be available? I'm limping by with a 3GS, and i'm dying to see when my Titan comes in. Has anyone actually collected a phone yet?
[Windows Phone 7 General] uptempo777:
One of my coworkers was on the waiting list for a Verizon HTC Trophy and they contacted her through email 2 days ago and she picked it up yesterday no problem.

It probably depends on the phone selected to see what they'll have in stock.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bigfire:
True. Any chance you know when she took the challenge?
[Windows Phone 7 General] uptempo777:
I believe she took the Smoked By Windows Phone Challenge on March 25, Monday. Consequently, I took the challenge on March 26, Tuesday and got an email from the Microsoft Store saying my HTC Titan is now ready for pickup. Totally stoked!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cr0wnest:
I dont know how it happened, but it seems that i no longer have root. Whenever i try to launch apps that require root access (ie. SetCPU, BatteryCalibration) the app just freezes there and crashes when i try to go back to home. Superuser binaries also fail to update at the "gaining root access..." sequence.

I thought of using the Gnex toolkit 5.5 to re-root the phone, but since im running AOKP Milestone 4 which is Android 4.0.3, it says rooting on 4.0.3 is not supported yet. Is there any alternative way to re-root my device? Im not even sure how my phone unrooted by itself!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juxli125:
if recovery works, reflash rom maybe :) if not just go back to stock with fastboot, root again and then reflash rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:

Hi guys,

I bought a original docking station for my Sensation.

Can anyone tell me, if it is possible to change the items like Player or watch on the dock screen?

I want to edit a few widgets, but don´t know how.

Is there a way to change?

THX for help,

Only things that I know you can change is the background and the shortcuts at the bottom of the screen. Not sure you can change the clock or the media player.

[HTC Sensation] GuerillaTech:
I recently installed Android Revolution HD on my Sensation 4G and love it. But before i did so, i followed one of the fine guides on this site to sim unlock my phone. I did that on a rooted stock rom though. I'm guessing it didn't stick since I flashed a new firmware, radio, and rom.

Am I wrong? Does the AR HD rom come sim unlocked? Or should i just follow the guide again?

Just a note: I am on T Mobile and and have no other sims to use. Sim unlocking is more out of curiosity and preparing for the possibility of not using T Mobile anymore in the future.
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
If unlocking was succesful it remains sim unlocked. At least you can try to unlock again while rooted.

At my knowledge custom roms are never sim locked.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seagheart89:
if i set the voltage to -25mV at a frequency of 1400mhz will it set all the lower clock speeds to -25 if i set the oc to 1400mhz? or do i have to individually set the voltages on the different frequencies?

also if i do have to set the voltage individually.. do they all have to be the same? or can i set it differently? ex. at 1200Mhz -25mV and at 1400Mhz -50mV etc.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
You have to individually set each frequency (unless the app you're using is able to lower them all at once). The amount you can drop each frequency is completely independent of the other frequencies. Some may be able to drop only 25mV, some can even drop 150mV. You have to find what works best for your phone though, because each processor is different

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] vidaljs:
Fortunately there is always a way...

U just have to hope that a developer makes or has the time to do it.

U should just put what ur using like the ROM, kernel... etc cuz I believe it will matter when they make it.

From what I've read about it, seems to be more htc related, the description says "some htc phones running official roms"

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
When I first started theming my hubs I used several different backgrounds and that worked great for a while. But then I started getting tired of scrolling through different images every screen, it started to hurt my eyes in spite of having nice backgrounds. So I had the idea to make a panoramic homescreen like this.

All you need is a launcher that allows you to add/remove homescreens like adwlauncher ex, and multipicture live wallpaper to set a different background for each homescreen.

You'll also need to set your transition effect to normal on ADW, and to 'slide' on multipicture live wallpaper.

Here are a few I split to display nicely on the transformer prime.

I don't have any for more than 3 homescreens, so if you need a homescreen for everything you may need to search for multiple display wallpapers to suit your usage. I'll try to add more of these later.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chaosking121:
I use an Iconia A500 but still check out the other tablet forums and I must say this looks quite awesome :) I'll try and make my own wallpapers if i do go this route though. What I'm using right now is a single folder with about 70 wallpapers. The folder is set to rotate through them on Windows 7 and the folder is synced to my tab using Sugarsync (dropbox will also work). Then on the tab, i set up adw not to allow wallpaper scrolling and set the entire folder as a source in Multipicture. So now I have one wallpaper on all 5 homescreens and a doubletap anywhere will rotate it though the list! It's actually really fun to just sit down and cycle through them for a while. Great suggestion though!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Keion:
MFW when I saw this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
My previous setup was similar. I think you can have multiple panoramic backgrounds without them conflicting with each other (like an odd image that doesn't belong) if you put all of screen 1's images in a folder, all of screen 2's images in a folder, and so on. Name them in order - like screen 1 would be A1 in screen 1's folder, screen 2 would be A2 in screen 2's folder - then just change the letter for each different panoramic background you use (b1, b2, c1, c2, etc).

Then go to picture selection in multipicture live wallpaper - and select ascending/descending by name. should work for all the homescreens.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
Just added some more - much more for 3 screens than there were before!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lostsorrow:
If anyone has something they want broken down into a panoramic to use for their prime I am more then willing to help. I built my own custom 7 screen layout in photoshop. Just send me a PM and we can hash out what you want done. I run a hub on mine but you should be able to get away with using the multilive wallpaper app from the market for free without needing a separate launcher.
