I vote for Liquid. I have Acer F1 and I'm totaly satisfied.

I get tired of buying overpriced HTC products. They still produce mobiles with 528 CPUs (almost 3 years OLD). HTC gives to people poor GPS, low volume, buggy software and old hardware. Do we have to support them anymore?

XDA is our favorite forum because we have problems and they create apps that make HTC products to meet their potentials. They do all the hard work. How many apps from XDA are now on HTC products?

Do we want to be beta testers for a 600+ euro mobile like HD2?

Come on HTC. Give us real up to date tecnology to keep us close. Otherwise I would go for Samsung, Acer or... whatever.
[General Topics] xmoo:
Acer Liquid with HTC Sense would be the best!

But have to wait till htc Bravo releases.

So we have sence for WVGA Android devices.
[General Topics] Shasarak:
You should probably consider the Motorola Droid/Milestone as well.
[General Topics] xmoo:
Nope, You caannot compare it with a phone that has a hw keyboard.
[General Topics] nathanpc:
Acer is winning. :(
[General Topics] Shasarak:
I can if I want to. :)

The keyboard on the Milestone is useless anyway, so you may as well regard it as a phone that doesn't have a physical keyboard. ;)

qualcomm chip in compare, qualcomm sd1ghz vs MSM7225 chip

obviously htc is practicing the same as nokia. same internal, different design only but sell over price.

i dun see customization a problem as there are dedicated forums for individual brands.

personally i perferred oem rom as there are too many personalize rom that are not generic for general usage
[General Topics] coolVariable:
Only problem is of course that

no store sells the North American version of the Acer

[General Topics] htcmagic:
Go for Acer Liquid , bigger screen, faster processor.

I will upgrade my phone soon but only for an android model with a bigger screen. I will go for Acer Liquid unlocked because Motorola droid is a bit pricey unlocked. Dont care for hardware keyboards.
[General Topics] kit1994:
actually, i hope some expert in this forum can cook rom for liquid

if liquid have the htc sense, i will buy it immediately
[General Topics] boqonx:
Bought liquid mainly for the pretty big screen and the snapdragon (plus it's not as expensive as other competitors!). Was going to wait for HTC dragon/passion but I thought it is going to be crazy expensive.
[General Topics] n1tro:
I personally own both the hero and acer liquid. Just recently sold off the hero. The hero has a better UI than the Liquid. Both the phones are stock. Even though the Liquid is more powerful, the UI on the hero is a lot smoother. Also, for some reason, don't know where to enable xt9 predictive texting on the Liquid (hopefully it's not just on the hero only). I'm keeping the Liquid because I like the bigger screen and longer battery life but I may just do what a user suggested earlier and just root the Liquid and throw on the hero rom and have the best of both worlds!
[General Topics] boqonx:
Patiently waiting on Liquid's kernel source so somebody can start cooking! :D
[General Topics] Shahpur.Azizpour:
who said that each android update has to be "more intensive".

an OS update should not only bring more features, but also other optimizations like SPEED. And i don't want Android to become something like windows mobile over the years. wm 2003 se on the htc magician was blazing fast, but on each os update it got worse and even the best hardware had problems with the os.

so i wouldn't neccessarily think that this should be a big issue. Having said that, i don't think that we will get many more udates after 2.1 for the hero. If HTC manages to support regular OTA updates then we will get all the minor 2.x updates, but if not then i think we will get maybe one more update after 2.1...
[General Topics] coolVariable:
2.1 will be finalized in January.

I personally think that a phone has/should have a life of 2+ years.

So you are fine with buying a phone now ... that will see no more updates?

EVERY OS, especially Android at the stage that it is at, will get more resource intensive. All things considered, I would actually compliment WM 6.5 how lean it is compared to WM5.

Haven't you noticed that recent android development is all about the eye candy and the ease of use (both of which are not friendly to slow CPUs).

HTC has a history of releasing great phones ... 2 years too late.

the current 530MHz CPUs would have been fine 1-2 years ago but not NOW.

And with 700MHz - 1GHz becoming the standard ... you do the math.

ACer might have better hardware, but it does give you the raw power all energy a hero does. When your in trouble a F1 cant drive fast enough but a hero would be there right away.Design wise the hero wins hands down, once the legend is out of its cage then the acer will kneel beforth a legend known for its simplicity .

You and your "your device wont get great support from xda" dude there's Modifying and hacking for a reason, that reason is all non htc phones, @tiagolan dude dont buy the ****ty sluggish msm 7xxxx htc hero its a pile of crap, only good thing its has is the htc sense UI....Now about the acer liquid bro this is a power house it can even play 1080p videos FULL HD, its freaking fast as hell, and its simply gorgeous, if i were you i would defenetly buy the Acer liquid in a hearth beat.
[General Topics] mancsoulja:
People like you make me laugh your just sheep following the herd,"Oh HTC says we need 1 gig cpu's and no other will do lets throw away all our fones n pay HTC for new ones" lol in terms of processing power android requires very little, a 528mhz cpu is more than capable of handling anything android can throw at it in the foreseeable future lol and for the people that says the acer is quicker than the hero, when i press a button things happen instantly, programs launch instantly ect there is no room for a speed improvement from what i can see lol
[General Topics] mancsoulja:
thats the most retarded thing ive ever heard lol "it can even play 1080p videos FULL HD" lol lol lol lol lol :D the acer would need a screen res of 1920x1080 pixels for starters thats wud be like wxvga or some mad **** like that lol not to mension a gpu a modern day laptop would be proud of to encode 1080p lol
[General Topics] hdubli:
Wake up from the sleep..liquid can play 1080p videos and has grpahic 3d accelerator as well, I used hero and i was down, it cant even play 720p...

video recording 640x480 @ 30fps, also a benefit

There are more, and they come one by one as it is more discovered by the users

"yesterdays tech with future price" ... so TRUE!
[General Topics] lucian777:
hi!

I had qtek s100, 9100, s200 Htc p3300, 3600, p6300, touch, hd, diamond, and now Acer liqiud, i must say that the build of the device is good, not 10 stars but good, the screen is ok not as good as Iphone ( in terms of sensitivity) a little improvement of the sensitivity will be great. Overall a good device with android (better than windows mobile).

In terms of comparison with Htc Hero i must say that screen resolution makes the difference and of course the size 3.2" vs 3.5" of the Liquid.

The cpu is far better on the Liquid, i'm tired of Htc using the same Qualcomm MSM7225 528 mhz on every device (Htc hd2 finnaly with 1 ghz Qualcomm)

I'm not a fan of the Htc or Acer but i must say, that Htc is expensive than Acer, and the difference of the price is not justified, and a lot of people are looking for better price these days. In the and is everyone's choice to decide.
[General Topics] zeus_hunt:
Acer Liquid all the way. Bcoz of the amazing price.

And what the future holds for it Android 2.1.. and above.

Hi everyone,

I was looking into turning my Pharos into an USB key. Because nothing worked, I end up trying to install "HTC Diamond_USB2PC_1.0.18143432.1" cab file found on this forum.

I probably shouldn't did this because now neither my PC or my Pharos seem to care when the USB cable is connected or not.

I uninstalled the above CAB, still no connection.

I tried to activate "advanced network functionalities" in Parameters->Connections->USB to PC but I get the following error (translated from french) "Failed to activate RNDIS"

Anyone has an idea about how to get back my USB connection (at least for activeSync) ?

Thanks

Hi,

Today when I ordered my flight tickets i got a SMS with a link to see flight-information. In the browser i also got a "barcode" (QR/DR code? Im not sure).

I have tried the Marked to find an application to scan this code directly from my Android Webbrowser, but I cant find any. (Its pretty hard to use my phone cam to scan my phone screen :p )

Does anyone knows how?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] CitizenLee:
Forward the SMS to your email account, check your email on a PC, scan the barcode from there ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] nukleuzN:
Hmmm, isnt there any barcode scanner that could read from the phone-display? :-((

Dont understand why WAP pages uses this kind of content if the cellphones arent able to use it straight from the phone-webbrowser?

- Kind of irritating that you have to lunch the wap page in a PC-browser and than scan the barcode. I doesnt always have my computer with me, and the reason why im using Andorid- and/or WM-OS, is just because that I could use my phone as a substitute for my computer when I dont have it around.

Tried your solution with "Barcode Scanner", but it didnt reconize it?? Maybe I have to use another type of scanner/app?

Here is the barcode (added the red line because the barcode have personal information)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] CitizenLee:
Er, I was just suggesting a workaround until you found something that worked like you specified ;)

Your QR code looks weird anyway, they usually have boxes in 3 of the corners.

Example
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] nukleuzN:
Its seems like my QR Code has one box only - and thats in the middle. Isn' it a QR Code maby?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] nukleuzN:
Looks like the code is a DM Code: Example
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] bjg222:
It's neither a QR code nor a DM code. I don't know the specific name of it, but the picture you provided above is a new bar code that, as far as I know, is only used for paperless boarding passes. I don't know about internationally, but here in the US, it's currently only available at a few dozen airports while the system is being tested. I've used it flying out of both Newark, NJ (EWR) and Atlanta, GA (ATL).

It's a special 2D barcode that contains encrypted information about your flight information, as well as some personal information to identify you. It is specifically designed to be secure so that only the TSA and the airlines can decode the information. Most likely, the reason you received it was not so that you could scan it to get information about your ticket, but so that the TSA could scan it at security and the airline could scan it at the gate. Ideally, you wouldn't then need to print out a paper boarding pass, all you would need is your phone! (I say ideally, because since it's a brand new program, not everybody's really familiar with it yet, and you get some funny looks from the gate agents sometimes!)

I will assume you ran into some difficulties using the search feature or were not certain as to what keywords to use.

Most systems sounds are handled in multiple areas. You may need to do some more research for some of the changes you are looking for on the Microsoft MSDN - note that some may not be changeable at all. Here's a few options for ringtones to get you on your way.

Option 1:

copy the files to the My Ringtones folder.

Option 2:

copy the files to the Storage Card.

Option 3:

copy the files to the .\Windows\Rings folder.

Option 4:

add the ringtone entries to Ringtones (MULTI_SZ) value of the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds] key.

Option 5:

create a custom package with a .PROVXML file similar to mxip_HtcApps_HTC_Ringtone_XXXX.provxml

Hi there.I've been using my 6815 for over a year now and was enjoying it till something happened to the wifi.I've used dozens of different firmwares on my phone and not once have this kind of problem before.Basically my wifi is not usable in any of the firmwares for sometime now.I2ve tried original 5.0 than 6.0 several 6.1 s and several 6.5s.I cant even enable wifi in any of the firmwares.For example right now I am using a clean 6.5 rom, and in Hp Asset Viewer it says for wifi :

driver rev:N/A

firmware rev:n/A

Hardware rev:1.0

ip address : n/a

mac adress : n/a

radio preset : yes

In some custom firmwares there are different wireless connection managers and I cant enable wifi in any these managers too.I tried changing things in registiry as suggested to someone like me but it didnt make a difference either.

so... Any suggestions ?

wifi module gone, its faulty on board, no solution. happens on atom series.

atom manufacturer quanta uses cheap conponent to build this device.

common fault on atom/hp68xx series

lcd-cannot see by side view, lcd will appear jumping under sunlight, newton ring appear easily

earpiece jack-on board, always get faulty when user plugin and unplug from it, device will think earpiece is still ard and do not project sound out from normal front speaker.

usb-detach from board easily when user drop the device while charging.

wifi-wifi cannot be on, system thinks wifi module is not ready or unavailable.

Hello,

first of all, I did use the search function in this board, also google and stuff. But those solutions I read weren't successful. So please be clement :)

I made a backup of all my sms before getting a new Rom on my Touch HD und I usually used the conversion-mode of displaying the sms.

When I restored the sms they were and still are cut in "sent by myself" and "received" in the conversion-mode. I've read, that this is a known bug by using PIM Backup and restoring the backup while the sms-folder is displayed in conversion-mode. So I made a hardreset and changed the display-mode to simple and restored the sms again. After that I made a softreset and changed the display-mode to conversion again, followed by a second softreset.

But my problem wasn't solved. I tried the same with SPB Backup which unfortunately changed nothing.

In Simple-mode the Date and Order of the messages are correct. Right now I'm using the RTT_LEET_R8_COM2 ROM (WM 6.5)

I hope there are some solutions for this stubborn problem.

To all Prophet users

I flashed this SPL in the belief that it would improve the quality of the phone, but since doing this it went completey bananas with the following faults.

1. would hardly ever power up.

2. when it did power up more often than not it either went into bootloader, hung on splash screen or on the windows screen.

3. had to keep hard reseting until it did work.

4. would lose programs at random.

5. unable to flash shipped NVID rom.

6. flashing hardSPL made no difference.

7. unable to unlock CID using lokiwiz2b.

8. flickering screen.

9. battery lasts about 10 hours if your lucky.

10. battery won't charge unless removed for about 20 minutes.

11. possibly lose Wifi.

12. can not downgrade SPL.

Basically avoid this SPL like the plague. It was intended for the Charmer and not the Prophet.

The only way I sorted it out in the end was to bin the motherboard. A bit drastic I know but luckily I had a spare.

If anyone does have a solution perhaps they would be kind enough to share thier knowledge as I believe a lot of users have had the same problems.:confused:
