And in general there is absolutely no problem with that in the Windows Phone forum.

I can see why Metro UI would not be appealing to everyone. I personally find it to be less attractive than what Android can be with all the custom roms, but more useable than any OS on the market. It is the perfect blend of simplicity and functionality and i have owned an iPhone and owned/used quite a few different Android phones from different OEMs.

Sitizenx is being a little blunt. Well alot blunt ;) But I want to let you know where Sit is coming from:

"Windows Phone is dead"

"Marketshare/Sales are pathetic"

"Apps are missing/inferior/overpriced"

"Hardware is a joke"

It is that last one that is the motivation behind his self-pleasuring retort. Out of curiousity, which single core Android phone did you use that was smooth? Nexus S? i am sure there are smooth droids out there, but there are quite a few that just are not and it is laughable based on the hardware that goes into some of there phones.

But it is quite okay for you to not like Windows Phone. Some of your issues can be resolved, some also apply to the iPhone (swype, pattern unlock).

Btw, that borrowed data parsing feature to recognize emails/numbers and pick the appropriate task is what got HTC banned ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Energata:
This whole bashing on Windows Phone, or iOS or whatever is such a waste of time and energy. I can think of a dozen things off the bat to be more constructive with. We really need to get off this "fanboy" mentality.

To each his/her own. Master your domain and work within it if you enjoy it. Simple.

Just MHO.
[Windows Phone 7 General] morpheuszg:
That's a patent issue. Microsoft is forced to leave this feature out of WP7. You can thank Apple for that.

And why should be a pattern unlock better/safer? I find it easier to memorize a pattern when someone unlocks his phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] juzz86:
For a first timer, you have a mighty good outlook :) Good to see. Welcome to the forums.

Let's not get too side-tracked in here, quit the baiting, and get back on-topic :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] VelJharig:
Just with reference to your example there... that is not a limitation of Windows Phone... that's a limitation in the default settings for Canada specifically. I'm in Canada with a Samsung Focus (also on Telus) and I can click on phone and street addresses in the web browser to have them open in the dialer or map program on Windows Phone. You just have to go into "Settings/Region+Language" and set your "Region format" to "English (United States)". You should then have clickable links for telephone numbers and street addresses. While you're there, change your "Browser and search language" to "English (United States)" to enable local scout in Canada.

The limitation on copy/pasting a number into the dialer is a legitimate gripe - copying the number is easy, but there is no paste option from the dialer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
The simple ui, the difference of the ui, and the huge microsoft stamp on it. its lacking in hardware and app developement, but apparently folks just accept the shortcomings, or don't care.

Id imagine working the price of a phone into a ford vehicle wouldn't be difficult, surprised it hasn't happened yet.

Sitizen's comments revolve around accusations of androidfanism and the future release to be expected. Unfortunately, neither are relevant today.

The sales information is interesting though. Apparently china likes it, or there is some promotion prompting sales with very cheap devices, dunno, I don't live there.

I'm still not seeing any wp7 devices around town, bars, etc. I've never seen one in a motorcycling buddies hand. Those are alllll iphones or the latest android, for the obvious mapping and navigation reasons.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sitizenx:
I heard $200 less then the iphone off contract.

I personally wouldn't pay either of those prices for either of those phones.

Ya' gotta admit though those accusations are well founded...

Hello Windows Phone users. You don't even own smartphones. ALL Windows Phone phones are "feature phones." Congrats! Now, let's have a civil conversation. Shall we?

Give... Me... A... Break.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vnvman:
I love feature phones, actually. The Pure View looks fantastic. Also, for some very special reason most of the people I know who are fit and have **** to do actually own a feature phone instead of a smartphone, while the iPhone and Android guys I know are mostly fat ass hacks living in their moms' basements. Not mentioning WP7 users because apparently we're not relevant, oh well...
[Windows Phone 7 General] sitizenx:
May want to send Nokia the memo. They are calling the 808 PureView a "smartphone."

Sounds like you need to move, dude. Lol.

I doubt the type of phone you have has much correlation with your level of physical fitness or how busy your schedule is.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vnvman:
I know but by xda standards the 808 is a dumbphone ;) as to the phone=type of guy equation I know it's kinda lame to say it, but man you have to believe me, that's how it goes for most people I know. The fact that one hasn't got time to figure out a modern smartphone may mean jack, but it may also mean that he doesn't even have time to worry about it. Basically what I wanted to say is that not all dumbphone users are dumb, nor all of the smartphone users are smart :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Dude, just stop complaining and go buy a smartphone then. Or fap. Or else.

Hate these stupid people who doesnt respect others preferences.

Android is pretty good, iPhone too. It's all about preferences. I dont see people discussing about "which one is better? Peugeot or Citroen?". So you give US a break.

We are here to talk about WP, not Android. Go over Android forum and be happy.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sitizenx:
I think you misunderstood my post. Read it carefully... in context. :)

Isn't that what I said...
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Sit, I think the thing is you do not pull any punches. You go all offense like the Packers.

Clearly calling Windows Phones feature phones is ridiculous. No one would have ever at any point of its development lifecycle have called an iPhone a feature phone. Windows Phone has, last number I saw, near 75K apps. More than any other OS not called Android or iOS.

I understand there are some features that Windows Phone lacks but that feature phone label is taking it too far. Sure there are some features WP does not have right now, but they have been getting there.

But, you see, if Android was called an unstable, battery-eating, laggy, fragmented piece of crap it would be war. But it is okay to say sensationally negative things about Windows Phone. Because no one is buying it and everyone wants Android. Everyone.

Between the Android I can do everything elitist crap and the iPhone I sell like hotcakes elistist crap it blows my mind that someone would say Windows Phone people have bad attitudes.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
^ honesty, all of them have nasty attitudes. From each camp there is this die hard guy, that must say something sucks.

Me, I'm at a point to like them all and appreciate them all.

I'm even preparing now to build a new media center and I want it to run W8.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Be a freedom fighter and go Linux ;)

But I guess if you want to go the whole 9 yards with the Kinect W8 is going to be fantastic as a HTPC. I am looking to build mine (HTPC, AMD 7750, i3, Blu Ray) and hook up my Kinect.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Go discless bro. Everything is digital, plus a bluRay adds more noise.

Unless you have a large collection I understand.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
I would love to. One less device to run data and power to. One less device to buy. Unfortuantely, I do not live in the US and it is quicker for me to fly to California than it is to DL a 13GB file. :(

Also, my problem with discless is archival. How long and how many movies can you keep? I tend to watch classics over and over.
[Windows Phone 7 General] linq-lass:
flame wars

All this Android vs. iPhone vs. Windows Phone vs. BlackBerry stuff is just flame wars. Replace "Android" with "Islam" and "iPhone" with "Christianity" and you have a literal religious holy war on your hands. This is what this makes me think of. Obviously not the same but pretty damn close. People get all religious-fervor like about their phones.

Can't we just leave it at you like what you like and stop going into the opposing territory to goad them?
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
No, we cannot. Doesn't work in religion and it doesn't work in technology. We will never be satisfied until we have one ringtone to rule them all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vnvman:
Ok, then...

Let the Mobile Games Beginnnn!

Just kidding. Actually it's been a long time since I joined one of these wars, I guess growing up a little you don't feel a lot into that anymore. However fanboy wars are kinda fun to watch. Basically not for the arguments, but just to see how far human stupidity can go. Usually I head over to Engadget for that kind of stuff, I don't even read the articles (they suck anyway), I just jump in the comments. Honestly tho I'd love that kind of **** to be banned from xda, a fully blown community filled up with this crap is such a waste...

I used a MOD to make stock video camera oversample audio for better quality. I need this to record live shows with my SGS 4G, otherwise it absolutely distorted.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1567092

The problem is that, as a result of this MOD, the video-audio is out of sync...

I was told AVIDemux can fix this and it has a linux version but no android version.

I haven't tried linux on android MOD which possibly can run AVIDemux on it, but if someone has a solution to this I'd appreciate that.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] melcad:
I'm using "1_HD2 Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.5 Tango 7.10.8773.68 v8.0" and I'm experiencing constant reboot loops. I just realized that data centric apps trigger the reboot loops (significant data transfers trigger the loops).

Questions

Should I Use 5.51 Radio on TMOUS Leo 1024???

Should stick with the 2.15 Radio it came with???

How do i stop Pdaimatejam v8.0 from updating to 5.51???

Can the part00.bin be removed from data.zip to prevent the radio update???
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] hjhjhj:
Post your question in Pdaimatejam's Rom thread. If you use a non-U.S. radio you'll screw up your phone. The 5.51T.09.29a_22_32_50.10U is the latest and greatest for the HD2, I believe. Official HD2 support from HTC and Tmobile disappeared a long time ago.

And btw...2.15 is the hardware radio...the 5.51T is the software radio.
[HTC Rezound] in_retrospekt:
Not to sound like a complete noob, but I have a few concerns that I cannot find the answer to.

Regarding the leak. I wanted to load is as a IMG file through stock hboot. However, will I be able to unlock, root and s-off the device on the ICS leak, or does this all need to be done before I load the leak. Reason I'm asking is because I dont want to S-off if I dont have to, however I want to be able to go back to stock if I need to. I know I need to be s-off to get back to GB from ICS.

Does unlock root and s-off need to be done before I load the leak?
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
You cannot downgrade without S off. It's a one way street if you upgrade and stay S on. You'll be able to unlock still though if you upgrade now.
[HTC Rezound] in_retrospekt:
ok, just to be clear..

I do not need to s-off before I upgrade to the leak? S-off, root, and unlocking can be done while running the leak, correct?

I am only going to s-off, unlock and root if I happen to run into issues on the leak and need to downgrade.
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
you should s-off before loading the leak, while the s-off procedure does work on the leak... you'll cover your ass by s-offing now, in case something happens during the leak install.

once s-off on GB, upgrading to the 3.14 leak is a snap. you can also leave the phone **locked** after doing the s-off procedure too, once you are s-off you can flash whatever and still be locked.

the 3.14 leak can be rooted. Just re-install amonRA after flashing the leak, and install su/superuser there, just like with GB.

come to irc in my sig if you need real-time help.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
You are correct in your assumptions but like it was mentioned...I would highly recommend that you S-OFF before flashing the firmware.

And would you recommend it? Answer in the thread

The Minty freshness without a doubt. Why?

I've been a member on the forums there for a few years now, learning and helping and they are a great bunch of guys - generally a better place than the Ubuntu forums.

Although I have stuck with Mint 10 - as I found no benefit to the later versions (either Mint or the Ubuntu it is based on) and more than a few problems, I would thoroughly recommend Mint to anyone trying to get to grips with Linux.

You had a question about linux. If you post in there, it gets bumped up and everyone who has posted in it will read the new post. Therefore getting more exposure to people in the know. Also, you keep the board cleaner by not cluttering it up with more threads on the same subject, and then threads get lost in the clutter. Just one of the rules in online forums. Search, look around, post in threads of the same subject. It's even in the XDA noob video.
