[General Questions and Answers] Bulldog:
My Understanding is that MS doesn’t work and listen well with the manufacturer. There are many complains on current WinMo capabilities and how time consuming it is to write application for it. Furthermore complains also go in to the development speed of the WM7 which no one knows anything about it. Therefore some HTC press release could be aiming of putting serious pressure to MS. Furthermore been only on WinMo leads HTC very depended on MS. I believe that is very important point by certain negotiations between HTC and MS.

Therefore it is only understandable that HTC starting put more weight on a second pillar. Besides developing own OS the Android is the best option for HTC for shaping and driving an Operation Platform for their Devices.

Anyhow that Large Companies like HTC, Samsung and some others paying serious attention to Android indicating very bright future for Android. It is most likely now that those companies will speed up the process growing young OS to maturate. WinMo and MS is really under pressure now, if Wm7 doesn’t bring the expected wowww change then it will no other way then to say... Good bye WinMo
[General Questions and Answers] coolVariable:
Not sure if I really need another OS in the mix. I wouldn't mind a device that can do both Android and WinMo but only Android ... probably not. Then I might as well make the jump to the iPhone.
[General Questions and Answers] typo:
I certainly wouldn't rule out Android. As somebody who uses a lot of Google's webservices, Android has a definite appeal. There's a few WM-specific apps I'd miss, but the app ecosystem for Android will only improve as time goes one.

However, I've been pretty darn happy with Microsoft's direction lately (Win 7, Zune, and the Xbox 360 are all great products). I wouldn't buy another WM6 device, but I'm definitely going to be following WM7 closely.

I still think HTC has some of the best ID guys in the business (aesthetically I prefer the TD2 and TP2 to anything on the market) and they're very talented and making software tweaks, but they really need to raise the bar for hardware specs and quality if they want me to keep buying HTC devices, regardless of the OS.

edit: And agreeing with coolVariable, I'd love a device that could easily be configured to run either natively. That would be an instant sale from me. I have a feeling MS's licensing wouldn't make it easy, though.
[General Questions and Answers] slick69:
I'd switch in a heartbeat to anything different from HTC/WinMo as long as it's available on my Sprint SERO plan.
[General Questions and Answers] 8525Smart:
Hmm, if this is the case, it may explain partly why HTC is betting so much on Android so suddenly. To be honest, if it is the case, I wouldn't be surprised either. I've seen similar techniques employed by other companies in other industries recently too.

Still, corporate shenanigans or not, 50% still seems like a massive shift to me, but I'm guessing the plan might change if their 2009 30% path becomes bumpy.

Both Android and WinMo? You mean sort of a dual boot deal or simply a device that can install either Android or WinMo roms? That would be fantastic; I think we can all agree on that. I think we can all agree too that it's unlikely. :D
[General Questions and Answers] orb3000:
I don´t think so, there are so many models with WM to choose from, and there will be more coming.

The actual number of Andorid models is low, and as you said, it will increase, but that is good so more options will be available.

As I said, I´ll stick to HTC WM models, at least in following 2 years...Then we can see what is Android doing and perhaps I can consider...
[General Questions and Answers] euphoria47:
Great thread!

I think I will continue buying HTC phones even if there was a large Android base, even more than 50%. I like Android and all, and maybe in the future I may even take one myself, but WM is so customizable and i have it just the way i like it and wouldnt change it for anything (except for a newer more powerful device maybe tegra/snapdragon which im holding out for)

I have to give credit where credit is due: if it wasn't for this site, my tp may have been my first and last winmo phone. I wouldnt have the functionality and great experience that i do now without the help of the folks here.

BTW, I think this thread would benefit greatly from a poll, as many dont have the time to post, but everyone has time to vote.
[General Questions and Answers] 8525Smart:
Yes, currently, but if HTC does shift to majority Android-based phones, then the number of WinMo-based models will inevitably go down (in favor of Android-based models instead), which will then result in a lack of choices.

Nonetheless, I do agree with you. If Android eventually shows more promise, I would reconsider too, but at this point, I still prefer to switch to OSX/WebOS if I have to leave WinMo.

Hmm, you're right. I don't know how I missed that simple bit of fact. Unfortunately, I think it's a bit late for me to make a poll now. :D

P.S. Thank you for the compliment.
[General Questions and Answers] crazy talk:
i knew what you were asking. and you are correct. i'll go with the best device regardless of OS or XDA support right now.

i mean, right now im using an IPhone because it was the best for me at the time. and now i want to switch to the Tp2. saying "i won't buy XXXX device because it is made by XXXX company and runs XXXX Operating system severely limits choices.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] shfytwo:
Hello all, I just bought on ebay a replacement for my Sprint Mogul 6800 which went through the wash by mistake. The gentleman who I purchased this new 6800 is a member of your forum and sent me a link for help and information. The phone has win mobile 6.5 and is a version by Ryan Mogul. So far I am enjoying messing around with 6.5 but need to be able to tether it to my laptop as I did in 6.1. Any tips for a noob?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Drizeii:
Hey, welcome to XDA they are an amazing and bright bunch of people here. I haven't posted much in the past but I've been reading and reading and between other peoples problems and fixes and all the great stickies I learned all I needed to know to flash my Mogul with all the updated ROMs that keep coming out. So thank you XDA and all the great people here for your hard work.

As far as your question, "Internet Sharing" for me sometimes worked and sometimes it didn't (it gave me error 67 or something upon connecting to Sprints Vision Network), it all depended on what ROM I was running. A while ago I called Sprint about it, and they told me I had to pay an xtra $15/month to have the ability to use my phone as a modem. I wuz like F**K that.

Since then I've been using WMWifiRouter to tether. You have the ability to connect via USB, wifi, or my fav Bluetooth. Wifi is great to share your internet with multiple laptops and its the only time i use that because I've found it drains the batt too quick and it overheats my phone.

But if you still prefer the USB through "Internet Sharing" and if Ryan's works (which I haven't tried yet) you can access it through the comm manager
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] kingfetty:
I'm seeing 2 seperate branches of builds up here and have done several searches but I cannot seem to find what the difference is between the 23xxx branch and the 21xxx branch.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gramsey1911:
I was curious about that too...It seems there is a lot of back and forth among the chef's
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rabinhood:
As far as I know 23xxx is a RTM branch, someone said that it's Samsung, don't know if that's true. Nevermind this branch is now being polished up to increase it's performance and stability.

21xxx branch is said to be M$ development branch. New features are introduced in 21xxx builds, i.e. controls oversizing to make the screen more finger-friendly.

But maybe sb knows more on this.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] dwizzy130:
The 219xx builds are rebuilds by Microsoft testing different GUI enhancements. The 23xxx are more stable and technically newer (but not really).

21828 was just ported from a Warhawk ROM.

dwizzy130
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Farmer Ted:
The 219xx builds seem to be developing more advanced UI elements; I guess the 23xxx are more focused on the OS (haven't worked with the latter yet myself).

Edit: what they said, lol.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] irus:
just out of curiosity how do you know its from the warhawk rom and not just a diamond 2 rom. thanks

Hi all, new to the forums here.

Our research lab is conducting some experiments on walking patterns of users. We plan to collect data from an accelerometer within a cell phone and the phone we're thinking of utilizing is the HTC Fuze. I know this phone runs windows mobile, where can I find information on the accelerometer API?

Furthermore, we're also trying to determine whether different models of HTC phones have different accelerometers. We want to evaluate the sensitivity and effectiveness of each one before purchasing the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] heliosdev:
For a managed version have a look at sensorapi! unmanaged version

Hi all, I have been searching around for the perfect case for my Uni. I currently keep it in pocket but tend to have issues when listening to my BT headset. I need to be able to wear it on my belt. I found exactly what I was looking for but they no longer manufacture it. :( It would keep me from having to carry a wallet as well. Here's the link:

http://www.senacases.com/Catalog/XDA-MDA-CASES/JasJar-Universal-MDA-Pro-9000-XDA-Executive-CASES

I prefer black to match my Uni but they only have tan and red in stock with belt clip. If you buy the black case without the clip you cant add it later. :(

So I was hoping I could find someone here that may have it and may want to sell it. I know this is not the marketplace but I figured it would get more views here under this particular section. Also saw the piel frama ones but they dont have the belt clip option. Any help or suggestions would greatly appreciated.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] Jmp_3f8h:

Hey all,

I sent my phone to my mobile provider some time ago to get a few issues fixed, when it came back the screen was really loose. I mean if u touch it it wobbles... if you press the power on button holding the phone with one hand then the actual screen will tilt, thats how loose it is. If you look at it closely, you can also actually see that the screen is not inline with the back half of the phone, it kinda hangs over a little bit.

What im wondering, is there a guide or something that can help me tighten the screen up abit so its not as loose.. it gets really anoying at times.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thank you!

On that alone I would take a chance.

My phone wont get past the welcome screen. It keeps restarting then it goes to "Android System Recovery Utility Build".... How do I reload the rom ?
[G1 General] AdrianK:
As mentioned re download the rom.

To reflash just throw the update.zip on the root of your sd card, boot in to recovery and alt-s.

You will want to wipe first and also format your ext partition (load the console and type "rm -r /system/sd/*" without the quotes).
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Redownload the rom on your pc. Then either mount your phone like the above poster said or if you have a card reader put your card in there and update like normal.
[G1 General] Diceman4:
It also sounds like you don't have the new SPL installed. No Hero ROM will work without it.

How in the crap to i keep this dam phone from switching this on by its dam self? Im sick and tired of it flipping it on whenever a program wants to talk to the Internet or whatever, and Doesnt tell me, ask, me or what ever. I just checked my account and the %$&^#%^& has already used nearly half a MB of data. So, how can i force it, when i turn OFF the Data connections, to STAY OFF until i go back, and turn it back on manually?

Also, Since when does the GPS use data? WTF?:confused:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
I think he meant quickGPS, where the phone downloads the gps satellites' information for a faster lock. This does require a connection so it's logical the phone'd be trying to connect. But from what I understand it only needs to download the lists once in a while, not every time you check your position. I even read somewhere that the lists it downloads are good for seven days, which would mean it'd try to connect once a week if that info is correct.

Flashing recovery image in terminal

Installing HardSPL through recovery console

Installing JF1.51 ROM (Heard its smart to do this first)

Installing HTC Radio from http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html

Installing Cyanogen Recovery Console

Flashing CyanogenMod 3.6.8.1 ROM

Recovery console: upgrade_fs (EXT2 -> EXT3)

-----------------------

QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE

-----------------------

Will this ROM smoothly support the modified Rosie.apk from

Am I correct in assuming I do not need to install the Haykuro SPL?

Should I use Compcache from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=537236 ? I have no experience whatsoever with swap files

Am I correct in assuming that I do not need to manually set up Apps2SD?

And most importantly: DID I MISS ANY CRUCIAL STEPS THAT I WILL REGRET DOWN THE LINE? :confused: Dont believe so, but better safe than sorry!!
