[General Questions and Answers] Jemmauk:
6.5.3 is better in most respects than 6.1 - I shouldnt imagine there would be much of a memory/speed issue considering its a HD2..

BUT..

As has been said before, if you are happy with what the phone is running now and you've made the adjustments you need for it to be how you like it its probably easier to leave it running 6.1 simply on the old adage "if it aint broke, dont fix it" - one which I have ignored a couple of times and spent a few hours laboriously putting my phone back to the way I had it before (early 6.5 build ROM's come to mind).

6.5.3 is prettier, and slightly easier on the touch-centric side of things, but thats really all the difference there is - so you have to decide whether thats enough for you to spend the time and risk in upgrading..
[General Questions and Answers] Morpheus90:
As orb said ;)

Anyway, I prefer Wm 6.5 too! A better UI worth 5 or 6 mb of extra used ram (at least, on my diamond, with a small screen)!
[General Questions and Answers] stylez:
Still a hardcore 6.1 user, yes 6.5 looks nicer but i like my phones no frills stable & functional, tryed to get into 6.5 but every ROM pushes me back to 6.1 without the feeling i'm missing out..

Of cause this is just personal oppinion and the only way you will find out is via flashin after all you can always revert back...

Have fun flashing :)
[General Questions and Answers] galaxys:
I've went back to 6.1 due to stability in the past.

Why is porting Android to the Kaiser such a hot topic in the Kaiser forums?

I've tried the various versions on my Kaiser and also a G1 and I gotta say... I just don't get the hype. When compared to Windows Mobile, Android is very limiting. Even though it's not so proprietary as, say, one of the older Samsung phones or an iPhone... it still limits what you can do with your phone. It's like Android's way or the highway. Windows Mobile allows for so much customization and is so much better than both iPhone and Android OS's.

Do others feel much differently than I do? I just want to know why I'm missing the mark with all the Android hype.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ajclai08:
I can see your point, winmo does require less 3rd party apps, more video formats , more apps, more features ect. Winmo wasnt built for phones in-mind, it's based off Windows CE, which has been running on embedded systems for along time using the ARM cpu. Probably the reason why it acts like more of a small computer. Certainly Android looks much better graphically than windows and the interface is a much easier and faster to navigate. The UI can be better suited for the screen size and for touch input. Customization wise, Winmo and Android are pretty close, but I'd give it to Android. Though, it's harder to customize android than it is to windows. Open gl 1.1 works in Android for kaiser, and has no drivers for the gpu in winmo.So it's basically what you want in a phone..a pocket pc, Or Modern Smart Phone..I want the Modern Smart phone until WinMo7 combines the 2.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thesecondsfade:
I suppose you're right about winno as a "mini pc" versus android as a "modern smart phone". I'm kind of a techie, which is probably why I like winmo better than Android. I guess I'm just a die-hard Microsoft fan.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] russeini:
i just hate the fact that people tend to eat from a ball nd then spit into it! to me MS is the mother of modern life. look at their OS in comparison to the rest! i believe that they managed to bring windows with all its great UI, add ons, customization to mobile

phones. people r just too ignorant to know which mobile OS is best. but techies know which system to use! dont let the masses rule. leave it to the experts! way to go democracy!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] josefcrist:
I agree. also what is with the media saying "windows mobile is so far behind that is will never catch up" the media is slanted.
[General Questions and Answers] feanor512:
Is there any backup program that will backup all of the text messages on my phone (see sig) to a format that I can read on my PC (e.g. .CSV, .TXT, or .XLS)?

Microsoft My Phone will back them up, but it's to "the cloud." I'd rather have a local copy. FDCSoft PIM Backup used to work, but it chokes on the number of text messages I have now (~8000).

I know that this Flash Player is out. Is it ready for smartphones? Can I or will I be able to download it and install it (like as a cab in WM)? Will it work only on new processors like the snapdragon? I would love to get my hands on the mobile version now and tweak it. I know that this site has great programmers who are in the know!
[General Topics] cmstackar:
Definitely not yet for smart phones. Tried it on my umpc, and while it sped up, still slow. And no wm version that I am aware of, but you could try flash lite for wm
[General Topics] eric12341:
flash lite (at least the one I found and installed ) doesn't work on hardly any flash websites as most are flash 10 supported only. I wish adobe would hurry and release flash 10 mobile but, instead they're taking their sweet time. By the time they release it all websites will be flash 11 only and we will be back in this situation such desgraciados!!!
[General Topics] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Adobe is testing Flash 10 for Android, but it's still pretty inefficient AFAIK. As far as current mobile flash versions go, regardless of platform, they're pretty much unusable for most things. If you can get flash working on YouTube, you often can't get it working on sites like HTC, or vice versa. Adobe announced a while back that they were attempting to get Flash 10 on all mobile operating systems, but at the rate Adobe develops Flash, it'll probably be awhile until every platform gets it.

[rant] Considering Linux still doesn't have full, stable Flash support after years of "development", and considering the "Open Screen Project" has been around since early 2008 while yielding no usable releases, I'm not going to hold my breath for this project. I'm honestly hoping flash will just die one day, and be replaced with open standards like HTML5. Flash was okay, in the 1990s, but just like Realplayer and AOL, it needs to be replaced with more suitable successors[/rant]

I drain my battery until the phone dies then charge it when it's off. The LED turns green in under an hour. Something has to be wrong here right?
[G1 General] hiddengopher:
hmm, have you tried a new battery then? and I read you want to drain it to about 20-30% not all the way, this way it lasts longer. But I would say try someone else's battery or buy a new one
[G1 General] hiddengopher:
have you re partitioned wiped everything and flashed?
[G1 General] ToeKnee!:
I don't want to buy a new battery if I don't need it. Money is tight! I have wiped everything though but haven't re-partitioned.

I let it drain and wiped everything today. Let it charge while off and it hasn't shut off. I'll have to see if the calibration was off or something..

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.45252

I bought an alternate version of this keyboard (white, not silver).

It works very well. It's pretty much the same size as an apple wireless keyboard, except made in plastic (doesn't feel super cheap though). Also contains all the windows keys -- so pgup, pgdn, home, end, and del keys are all there. And since it's not a foldable keyboard, it's a bit more reliable.

I actually like how it's plastic and can be disassembled easily. In addition, the back area (where the circuitry is) actually contains a lot of space so if the LiON battery runs out, you can easily mod it to take 2-3 AAA batteries (the internal batteries output at 3.7-4V) inside, leaving you with a bluetooth keyboard that you can operate on replaceable batteries alone.

Oh, as for the charging...you can charge and use the keyboard simultaneously. AND if you lose the charging cable, just open it up, and replace the charging recepticle with a USB port (unsolder the 2 leads, and just rip the recepticle right out, and replace with a USB port).

Easy to mod, and cheap. Good buy!

Bluetooth

Well i was also looking for the bluetooth stuff. I never searched with dealextreme after i didnt receive any responses to query. Later i ordered a Mini Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard for PC, think this is one i got but not sure if it works with HD. But for all bluetooth stuffs, i feel Chinabuye is best, an online store from China. The pieces and devices are awesome and crystal quality at reasonable rates.. so waiting to try the bluetooth keyboard from them,,will keep u posted.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonintendo:
Why is it that devices like the palm pre (really similar spces to the droid) and the iPhone have smoother scrolling than devices like the droid and the g1 (older, but the specs aren't THAT bad. didn't the iphone 2/3g have a slower cpu?)

I have noticed that androids browser doesn't render pages like the pre and iphone do (in a checkerboard fashion) which results in seeing those checkerboards less and overall choppier scrolling when zoomed out. First, are my assumptions correct? second, has anyone implemented this method into a browser for android? I am really ocd about framerates and smoothness.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daneshm90:
Yea i think android uptil 2.0 i believe does not use gpu acceleration for things like scrolling, only for 3d games n such. However seeing how future android releases have things like 3d gallery and launcher, id assume they use this acceleration. Cant b sure, always make sure u reassure :)

htc touch HD bluetooth / wifi problems (HTCwiki.com)	​

Jan 23 2009, 2:35 PM EST	| Post edited: Jan 23 2009, 2:35 PM EST

I recently contacted the usa tech support line for htc and they informed me that the bluetooth radio and the wifi radio are located right next to each other inside the phone. once you turn on the wifi radio while using bluetooth it overloads the power to the radios and causes them to fail. an engineering flaw with our phone. and at this time there is not a fix for the problem. this is very unfortunate because i frequently need to use my wifi connection while i talk hands free via bluetooth.

[HTC Excalibur] Wingnutt:
A few months ago I dropped my dash and cracked the screen, it still worked, could still dial, could still recieve calls.. just couldent see anything.

I ordered a G1 and in the closed the Dash went.

Well, no I need to add a 2nd line to my account, and I need a 2nd phone.

So I figured I would order a new screen for the dash and just use it. Being prudent I decided to first make sure it still worked, I put it on a charger and the light came on showing it was charging.. ok, good deal..

I let it charge a while, popped in my sim, and powered it on, figured I would make a test call and such.

Well the screen lights up solid white (no suprise.. its broke) and after a few seconds.. the phone just starts beeping the alarm tone.. then it starts beeping it again over top the first.. and again and again untill there is this cacophony of racket, I have to pull the battery to stop it.

it worked fine (aside from the screen) when I "retired" it, but now it just freaks out.

I tried hooking it up to the computer, the light one the phone comes on, but thats it, the PC doesent see the phone.

Obviousley Im rather nervous about the idea of buying a new screen and going through the trouble of installing it on a phone, that best I can tell.. is totally screwed up..

any ideas on what I should do?

P.S. I can post a video of the insanity if that will help.
