HTC X7500 (Advantage) –Reviewed-

If you think this device is too big for a phone or if you are the guy who told me its one-handed use is terrible, please stand up. You are dismissed. You may go now. Thank you for your time.

Now for the rest of you, my intent in this review is to focus on the X7500’s usability.

There are really only two things about this device that make it different from other Windows Mobile devices. It has an 8gb hardrive, and most importantly it has a 5 inch screen. This is one of the most significant changes we have seen in a Windows Mobile device. There have been lots of innovative changes made to converged devices, but few in the area of mobile computing. With the X7500 I like to call it “non-desktop computing” The 5 inch screen enhances the viewing capabilities of Windows Mobile by leaps and bounds, as I will show later with screen shots and pictures.

Before I get too far into this review I want thank Paul and Igor of SuperiorGadgets for putting the device in my hands for a few days so I could review it. :cool:

The complete review is posted here:

What's the phone signal like on the u1000? I had a universal qtek 9000 and the phone signal was always weak. I finally stop using it. The u1000 would have to have a good signal.

On other Roms (CM11) I can set the volume quicksettings tile to

I can activate and deactivate modes. Is this possible on Omnirom too? I would like to have only Vibrate and Sound+Vibrate, everything else deactivated.

Hello,

I have my P7 for two weeks, everything great until 2 days ago.

I noticed the battery draining too fast. When I checked the battery stats, it shows the wifi on the whole time, as you can see in the print screen, when it was actually off.

Tried turning on and off, rebooting the phone, nothing works.

Any idea why is this happening?
[Galaxy Tab S General] lorinkundert:
We all hear the stories of Samsung losing market share across the board, I used to defend them to the naysayers until I purchased this latest flagship tablet of theirs, I have never seen anything so under supported and locked down so developers can't do anything with it. For the first time in years I will not upgrade my phone to another Samsung, buy one in China and its even worse with the embedded spyware installed in the bootloader and modem, replace either component or the kernel and you have a wifi boat anchor.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lynxblaine:
Having seen the rumours about the S6 - I would say they have had a turnaround in mindset and we are looking forward to an amazing future. The Tab S is going to get Lollipop in the next month, which is a massive improvement over Kitkat.

The less bloated vision for the future will mean quicker updates also.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ashyx:
Under supported and locked down, how did you come to that conclusion?

Firstly Samsung are good enough to leave the boot loader unlocked which basically opens the door for development and saves a massive headache.

Irrespective of knox which is a manufacturers prerogative to include. It doesn't hinder development, it's just Samsung's mechanism of knowing if the device has been tampered with.

Already there are custom kernels, roms and recoveries and plenty going on regarding such things.

Where's the lack of support unless you refer to Samsung themselves?
[Galaxy Tab S General] bronsonelliott:
I am a hard core Android advocate but like you, I have tended to steer clear of Samsung lately. I think Samsung has become the "Apple" of the Android market. That in itself isn't necessarily a bad thing per se. If you want a device that just works and you don't do much tinkering or customizing then its great for you. However, if you are all in on Android as a platform and don't want to feel tethered to a particular ecosystem then Samsung may not be your best choice.

They put in a number of measures to ensure you can't customize your device too much (aside from installing a new launcher). But I don't want all of the bloatware and want to have the option to uninstall it and save the space on my device without having to go through the heart stopping process of rooting my device and hoping I don't eff it up.

I think people have started to learn this as well which has resulted in Samsung losing a step. That and the fact that the other manufacturers (LG, Moto, etc) have caught up and actually making better devices IMO. Samsung can't just rely on their brand name anymore like they could a couple of years ago.

If Samsung does have this change in mindset regarding their Android devices that's great but I'll believe it when I see it and it may be too little too late. The damage may be done and the best they could hope for is stop the leaky bucket of customers leaving but not really gain much market share.

Of course all of this is my own personal opinion and no one asked me directly for my opinion so please make your own decisions and do your own research. There's no replacement for making your own informed decision based on your own specific needs.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lynxblaine:
They still sell a huge number of phones, and a huge number of other components. Might possibly be making OLED screens for iphones soon.

In any case they had a year of less than expected profits rather than losses so I dont expect to see them in decline really.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ratman6161:
In decline? Hardly

First off don't be so U.S. Centric. Apple is #1 in market share in the US but it is the only game in town if you want iOS. Samsung, while "only" #2 is still by far the biggest Android supplier. But all that is only in the US. Looking globally, Samsung destroys #2 Apple by two to one. Android destroys iOS by 84.4% to 11.7%. A lot of this is because outside the US the market for flagship phones is a lot smaller and the low end to mid range rules the market.

See: http://www.idc.com/prodserv/smartphone-os-market-share.jsp

Here is another one that shows by country market share for the US and the EU countries:

https://gigaom.com/2015/02/04/android-and-ios-are-nearly-tied-for-u-s-smartphone-market-share/

Once again outside the US Android destroys iOS in market share. My theory is the whole carrier subsidized phone phenomenon we have here in the US disguises the actual cost of a phone so you really have to do your math to figure out how much you are actually paying. In other countries where they have to pay up front for the phone, cost matters. I'm guessing those folks are not generally buying the flagship Android phones but going for more affordable options. Apple doesn't really compete at the low end.

So Samsung is well positioned to compete globally. So the idea that its "in decline" isn't really true. Also remember that Samsung is a major supplier of components to other manufacturers including Apple.
[Galaxy Tab S General] snapper.fishes:
No they are not. Samsung is losing grounds in both China and India, two of the biggest country (population wise) in the world. Samsung is steadily losing sales on mid to low end phones, which is where Android reign supremacy. It's hard for Samsung to compete when their competitors are willing to sell their phones at just 1.8% profit margin (Xiaomi - 1.7%. Samsung - 18.7%. Apple - 28.7 %).
[Galaxy Tab S General] ingenious247:
If you have any business education at all, you would know that any company selling at a 1.7% margin won't be around very long. I wouldn't worry about those type of companies taking anything away from Samsung. If anything, their sub-par product will only drive these "new" low-end to mid-tier users to splurge for a better phone on their next purchase.

Samsung isn't going anywhere, and they are more diversified than most companies. That's why they can sell at an 18.7% margin.. because you need a minimum of ~23% overall company margin to maintain growth.
[Galaxy Tab S General] snapper.fishes:
I am very well aware that Xiaomi's low profit strategy is not sustainable in the long term, and that they will eventually have to change their strategy or collapse. The problem however, is that their product isn't subpar. I personally know people who use their products, and the quality is actually on par with high end android phones. Xiaomi is waging a price war against Samsung in China, and no matter who wins, everyone loses.

When it turned on again, i call a friend and it said ... has stopped. i backup it and it worked so i could have note3 call features :mad: All thing i can do now is root it.

Get into recovery

Format data and wipe everything.

Flash the ROM

Reboot

Flash supersu

Recover your data using any backup tool.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricciolocristian:
Hi,

I've a problem with my Nokia Lumia 820 (RM-825). I was reinstalling it using Windows Phone Recovery tool when the phone has turned off and now it's bricked. The battery was high but I don't see any boot, no vibration and no buttons combination (volume down, power or volume down, power and camera) resolves the issue.

I've downloaded the firmware using Navifirm and now I'm trying to flash it using Nokia Care Suite, but it doesn't recognize that my Lumia is connected. When I plug the USB, the system install the qhsusb_dload driver and after some seconds it seems unplugged.

I've tried Nokia Phoenix but the RM-825 is not listed and changing Phoenix.ini file is not enough because the model selection doesn't work.

Any idea how to solve this problem?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johntheredimid:
Replace the battery. If this does not work, sorry. Has been damaged boot. To repair it needs a special professional box, you can search google InfinityBox or Advance Box boot repair. I recommend you take your lumia to a service center. Guarantee your carrier or Nokia, if you do not, you can go for the option of the boxes that I mentioned above. Or someone to repair boot of lumias with those boxes or buy another phone. I speak from my experience with my lumia 520. However, if you find another solution, please mention here so I also repair my phone. Hopefully if someone has another solution but I doubt it

Alright, yesterday I posted a thread asking for help here. Since this is a different issue I created a new topic instead of posting it in that thread.

Since my Android was screwed up and I wanted to revert back to a Sense ROM for a while now, I thought I might as well do that now. I tried it with this guide. Changed my CID to Super CID, flashed the firmware, and did that factory reset in the bootloader. But, since the OS is screwed up and my recovery is gone, I can't use adb anymore. I also can't use it in the bootloader. So, no OS, no recovery, no adb as far as I can tell.

I'm clueless and having a little panic attack here. Any help would be awesome.

I may have bricked, want to know what went wrong and if it's permanent. Thanks, here's how it happened.

I was running one of the Omnirom nightly builds. I got a notification saying there was a new build, I decided to try it hoping it would improve my battery life. I had TWRP installed so I thought it would be ok (I chose to let it update automatically which I guess was my mistake). It did the update or tried to at least, but when it tried to boot it just gets stuck on the Asus screen. The one with the loading bar. Volume up or down with power button does nothing but get back to the same screen. Reset (using a pin) and volume up or down does the same thing. I thought the only way to permanently boot was doing the wipe option on the recovery menu, but maybe I am wrong. Is it possible to permanently brick doing what I did? Thanks. Any possible solutions?
