Windows wont need half the apps you posted..including pandora. These features will be built-in.. in a future winmo OS that is. As of Right now sure Android is better than windows mobile in most cases. Though out of the box you can still do more with the windows phone without dling any 3rd party apps. Sure its ugly as hell, android is much faster and acts as a better phone OS...but with the position m$ is in..they could easily and potentially put to sleep Android..and give iphone a run for its money. How? Like I said before, Functionality, Productivity, Compatibility, will all be in Windows Mobile favor..against any other linux or iphone based OS. Example, windows apps actually use your hardware to it's potential. A Video Player for WinMo supports different formats, you can do simular stuff thats on a PC video player, like switch video drivers on the fly. Android on the other hand, all the video players are the same with cosmetic differences..catch my drift? I'm certain, Tegra + Windows mobile 7= Awsome..and certainly will draw you back to the windows bandwagon again.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
LOL, i don't think lots of memory and system resource overhead means 'use your hardware to its potential'. just means that its inefficient.

don't get me wrong, i loved my winmo phone. but, i'm not looking back for a bit. i'll check out winmo when 7 hits the streets. but, if it's not much different than 6.5, i prolly won't switch over.

but, who knows, maybe it'll be fantastic. i like windows 7, but...by and large, my ubuntu setup is not only more functional, but prettier as well. i keep the windows OS only so i can game occasionally, and that's pretty much it

Purchases made on the Android Market are tied to your Google Account through Google Checkout. Any time you start up a new Android install and link it to your account, you can browse to the Market's "Downloads" section to regain your paid apps, and occasionally free apps as well (though this seems to be less reliable).

Please don't compare unreleased products; it's impossible to say where Android may be when the OS you refer to is released. Also, personally, I'm averse to bundled software (and this is a big reason I'm not a huge Windows fan in general). Android itself came with this damn Facebook app I can't figure out how to get rid of...
[Nexus One General] Seraph321:
Though I think your delivery was a little harsh, I tend to agree that Microsoft has the potential to overtake Android if they play their cards right. And I'm ready to jump back on that bandwagon when/if that happens.

Their biggest hurdle, as always, seems to be backwards compatibility. Microsoft has always labored to avoid abandoning all the great software that's been written for previous versions of a platform when they release updates. If they are planning to maintain compatibility with WM6 apps, then WM7 can only change so much. Windows 7 went so far as to implement an entire XP virtual machine embedded in the OS. I doubt this is possible on a mobile platform though. I guess we'll see.
[Nexus One General] SpyderMS:
As was said earlier, paid apps are tied to your google account, so those are very simple to re-download. For non-paid apps, you have a couple options. You can use programs such as AppControl (linked earlier) to make batch backups of all your apps, and then batch re-install later, or you can use aTrackDog to export a list of all installed apps to your SD card, for reference later when you go to re-install them. After you root, and install Amon_RA's Recovery image, you'll never have to worry about re-installing apps after a wipe again, cause Nandroid (built into the recovery image) can backup and restore an exact image of your phone, including apps. You could even restore a backed up image onto a new N1 if your first one bit the dust.
[Nexus One General] darkfire23:
I hope this isn't off topic, but is there an app for Android that is like AroundMe (iPhone) or Next2Me (WinMo)?
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
LOL! Yeah, it is called google with location services turned on! There are other apps, of course, very similar to that. I prefer using google with location services for my searches of stuff like that since they tend to be more up to date and accurate.
[Nexus One General] arifhanid:
Search for Aloqa on Android Market - i think that's what you're looking for...
[Nexus One General] SpyderMS:
Try Google's own Places Directory. It might be what you're looking for. If not, there are a couple others out there you could look at; Where is a popular one as well.
[Nexus One General] alagala:
AroundMe for Android

Yes, probably Google Places is what you are looking for.

Interestingly, on Android there is an app AroundMe that behaves differently than its iPhone counterpart.

However, AroundMe for Android perfectly complements Google Places, showing visual, audio and descriptive information of what's around you.

For more details:

home.ameliemedia.com/aroundme-android/

AroundMe has also been briefly reviewed by the Flickr staff on their blog (since it makes use of the Flickr API):

blog.flickr.net/en/2009/12/29/going-mobile/

This app allows you to discover amazing places round the world via Flickr, YouTube, Wikipedia and more.

Designed for Google Android-powered devices, it is aimed at travelers and photo-enthusiasts alike.

Among other things, AroundMe displays the most interesting Flickr, Panoramio and YouTube photos and videos of places nearby your current location (or in any other locations you point your finger to!), giving you the walking or driving directions to reach each place.

AroundMe can be downloaded from the Android Market, in the Applications > Travel category.

Ok i have tinkered with it, but have not been able to get the Windows Remote To connect to my home pc, im at a loss and any help?

What i would like to do is be able to use my Excal via bluetooth or via wireless to connect to my pc and basically use it as a remote keyboard/mouse to run stuff..

I would prefer something free, or if you do know a program that has a trial and works as a trial that would be much appreciated.

Basically if anyone is smart enough to write a program, i want to use via bluetooth, the center button as a left click and the arrows around to move the mouse as a basic operation. Maybe add in a key to access the windows key, so i can activate windows media player and navigate it.

I am on windows 7x64 if that matters.

hi there

well my problem is that when i choose the band of 850. the phone cant really find my network band......

im from costa rica , and our 3g band is 850.

i used to have htc pro from att and it worked 100%

but now with my tmobile, i really dont know why i cant connect to my 3g network. EVEN that my phone gives me the option to change the BAnd.

:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] OGIGA:
T-Mobile's 3G band is 1700/2100MHz. Most of the world is different. If your phone isn't T-Mobile branded, it probably has no way to get on the T-Mobile 3G network.

Hi.

I need your help, I just bought a Samsung b7610 with WM 6.5, my problem is that i use a program called minute beep, that beep at a time i prefer.

Please help me with this problem.

You can do this in the backlight settings in Settings, System, Power. Just set it to never turn off on battery power. This is obviously gonna chew the crap out of your battery, but that's how you do it.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I have that on my device and it works fine. It's safe to use that on the Rhodium, it's merely a simplified registry editor, and the registry keys are pretty much the same across different WM devices. In fact, I still occasionally use the original version, for the Kaiser, on my Rhodium since HDTweak doesn't do some of the things Kaiser Tweak does. You also might want to take a look at Advanced Config; it's a much more comprehensive program which is still pretty easy to use.

You very likely not read about any dev regarding the Moment here on xda (since the main aim is at phones developed by HTC). You can, however, head to sdx-developers.

I've have the Sprint Touch Pro 2 for two weeks, and find some problem I'm not sure if it is just software issue or what, please help about the following issues. BYW, I'm running it on ATT's network.

-My TP2 comes with the radio version 2.05WV, but on the forum it says this version is for USCC, Sprint should use 1.96WV? Anyway, I flashed it with 2.05WU. I don't know why, but it always asks me to register on ATT's network.

-Touchflo 3D would not update my appointment on the home screen after I made changes to the appointment directly on TP2, and it wouldn't reminder me when it is in sleep mode, the reminder will go off only after I push the power button and turn on the screen. And it seems once you reach the time of the reminder, the phone is in some kind of wake up status and drain the battery like hell, and really warm. The battery won't last for 6 hours on a full charge under this situation.

It works ok without launching the Touchflo 3D. But if the phone is charging, then the reminder won’t work either.

-My TP2 never activated, so every time I restart, it will automatically start to activate. Anyway to disable it so it think it is activated?

Thanks.:confused:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] zcarman:
With your AT&T SIM in you probably need to set to manual network instead of automatic so it stays connected to AT&T and doesn't try to flip back to CDMA - if you've already one this, then someone else will have to jump in, but the settings are:

All Settings > Personal > Phone > Network (tab) > Mode of Operation = GSM/UMTS Only

This should keep it from jumping back to Sprint and then back to AT&T where it asks you to register again...
[General Questions and Answers] stellarotic:
Hey guys, first of all: great form. This is jam packed with information and I cannot wait to further read up on the massive ammounts of content here.

I recently purchased a MyTouch3G. Everyone who knows anything about phones told me the best thing I could do is to root my phone (well worth the risk of bricking the phone). I looked into it a bit, and noticed the various ROMS and things of that nature, and decided to go for it.

I rooted my phone using Unlockr's one-click-method, assuming that one would be the easiest.

My phone is currently rooted, and running the TheOfficial DONUT TMO US/EU, ADP & AOSP ROM, upgraded to the latest expansion pack.

I dig the new performance and style but have one questions that's been burning my mind:

With all that, what now? What should I be reading up on/doing with my phone now that it's rooted and running an awesome ROM? Is that it? Is all rooting simply there to try out different ROMS?

I realize that the question might be broad. I'm not looking for an explanation on every little thing I can do, but some sort of list. What can I do with my phone now that it is rooted?

Hi,

I have strange problem connecting my HTC Touch HD to Wifi router.

Initially PDA connects to router and internet is working. After some time(after few hours or few days) connection is lost and wont connect again. Reseting router helps. Connection is back again for some time.

Strange is that my E-ten X800 has no problem with wifi connection to the same router all the time.

So i cant find out where to look for problem. Is it my router or HTC problem?

I've tried :

.reset my router to default settings and setup it again

.installed newest router firmware.

.changed passwords (btw changing password sometimes solves problem without reseting router. And again for some time only)

.changed WiFi channel

.changed rom on HTC Touch HD (previously was original rom)
