There's a full version of skype for android now? Not the light version? Are there any news blogs about this?

It's only for verizon and it's still not full.... voice still is over call. At least that's what the comments in the skype blog say. No voice over data/wifi.

There is an App Called Nimbuzz on the market, you can make a Skype call with that App.

[General Topics] Bikram:
From today Rogers is offering Samsung Spica for $79.99 (with 3 yrs contract). The X10 is suppose to come end of this month, but I am pretty sure X10 will be expensive. Me and some other peoples I know are confused which phone to buy (when X10 comes out). Spica seems very cheap, X10 will be expensive for its HiRes camera and 65K screen. If we compare them then the difference comes out to

Spica

800Mhz Processor, 320 x 480 pixels, 3.2 inches, 3.15 MP Android 1.5

X10

1 GB storage, 384 MB RAM, 480 x 854 pixels, 4.0 inches 8 MP Android 1.6

They are both stuck with 1.5/1.6 Android, and 800Mhz is almost same as 1Ghz (or am I wrong).

Pros for X10: 4" screen with great resolution and might get 2.0 Android (hopefully). 8MP camera with face detection and ect. Good looking shell.

Cons for X10: Who needs 8MP?? Will the Android 2.0 ever come (or just one of their fake promises to get customers)?? 4" is great but might be a bit bigger to fit in pocket (and wrong girls might get wrong impression lol).

Pros for Spics: It is CHEAP. It can play DIVX, has an additional microphone.

Cons for Spica: Camera is not that important but at least a flash is quite important. Button don't have backlight. The screen is only 3.1" :(

Should we just giveup on these two phones and get a Milestone instead? (everything is grt with milestone except 600Mhz processor)

What do you guys think is a better option?
[General Topics] htc fan89:
don't get motorola milestone it's locked down, so you can't mess around with it. I'm also thinking of getting samsung spica...
[General Topics] Bikram:
"Locked down" what do you mean? If I get milestone it comes from expansys and it would unlocked? Or does Locked in Android phones means something else?
[General Topics] htc fan89:
motorola locked down the kernel so you can't modify it.
[General Topics] Bikram:
What the **ck man I thought in Android everything is open source!!! What about Spica? or X10?
[General Topics] Bikram:
Well it has been a while since I wrote in this thread. It seems like there are ROMs for spica, not yet for x10 but they are working on it.

The key diferrences that i found for Canadian consumers are:

spica has divx player with 3.2 amoled display of 320 x 480 res and the best part is that the phone is ONLY 29.99 (with 3yrs contr) and is soon going to get 2.1.

X10 has 4" TFT screen of 480 x 800 res and will get 2.0 someday hopefully.

Does anybody knows if spica has multitouch or not? (x10 does not)
[General Topics] BobbyBest:
The Spica's screen is afaik not an AMOLED but casual LCD.

[General Topics] Monty Burns:
you obviously never used the original Omnia then. A very solid, reliable bit of kit and it was easily better than any HTC phone at the time for my purposes. Sadly, the Omnia 2 has issues that prevented me buying it and instead I bought a HD2.
[General Topics] Tabbe:
that morph video is ard for years. check youtube, u see along of posting in past years

its only a concept. there are others also from other brandings

htc is themselve are not concentrating on winmo device. android are here instead, samsung did a wonderful customization for winmo also and have move on to android too. soon, their own os beda will be out

That's all it is a concept that may come in many years...? I imagine if we got to see concepts for plans in x amount of years from HTC we would drop our tongues even more :D
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
Well, if you ask me, they did make better phones than HTC. Up until the announcement of the HD2; Samsung's phones just utterly bested HTC's offerings. Really, at a time when HTC was still rocking the Touch HD as the best phone in their arsenal, Samsung released the Omnia HD; the Omnia HD is a phone so badass that it still stands as one of the best phones today (it was released in May 2009).

Off the top of my head, there are only two phones I know of that I would say matches it (N900 and Droid), and there is only one phone that I can definitively say bests it: The HD2.
[General Topics] leemoss84:
if the omnias are so good then why do you have a fuze? imo samsung makes low qaulity phones except for the omnia 2 which i kinda like.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
im guessing because it has a keyboard and the omnia 1 doesn't.
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
A keyboard is one of the reasons. Aside from that, the original i900 really isn't that much better than the Fuze. The i900 had a larger screen, better camera, and a more powerful CPU (with better drivers support), but it had less RAM, lower resolution, and lower battery life. The lack of a keyboard also made it a bit hard to swallow.

If nothing else, one of the primary reasons I own a Fuze today was because I managed to get it for cheap (much cheaper than it cost at the time anyway).

To get to the point, design-wise, the superiority of the two companies is debatable (personally, I actually like HTC's design better), but when it comes to specs, Samsung has pretty much been obliterating HTC for a good while. I'm not referring to the Omnia line either as Samsung put great specs in many of their phones. It is only recently that HTC managed to surpass Samsung at all and, mind you, the S8500 Wave (with its own 1Ghz Cortex, super AMOLED WVGA screen, and many other nice features) is going to be closing whatever gaps HTC managed to create in about a month.

I tried Hard Reset

I Tried Volume +/- with power

nothing works

if i can get the driver then I can create the connection

thanks for the help!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] illogic6:
I'm definitely not the authority on this being that I just jumped ship from an Android device, but I'm pretty sure if you've flashed the wrong SPL your time is probably best spent on the phone with Asurion.

There is no fix for you phone. Hopefully you have insurance and can get a new one. If you put the wrong spl on it is nothing but a good looking brick.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] PromaneX:
The WebSetGo! Domain Checker is a tool that enables HD2 users to check the availability of domain names and create lists of domains they might like to register.

Point your HD2 OPERA browser to:

domain.websetgo.net

Currently the following features are available:

]Check if a domain is available

]Add available domains to your short list

]remove domains from short list

I am working on a feature to export short lists to excel mobile and a feature to let registered users (when registration works) tap "get domain" to have the domain registered for them with a single tap using pre-configured information from the users account.

Feedback would be great on this :)
[Hero CDMA General] blankd3ckskat3r:
ok so i had fresh 2.0 and the updated radio on my phone. i woke up today and flashed the damage rom, and while it was booting for the first time i decided to take a shower. when i got out, i tried to turn the screen on. nothing. rebooted, screen came on, then it went off tried to turn it back on. nothing. i nandroid resotred back to fresh 2.0, booted, screen turned off, tried to power it on, nothing. called my phone, it rang but the screen didnt turn on. i RUUed it, said it was complete, booted up and froze at the htc screen. i tried to adb into it, nothing. went into fastboot, tried to adb, nothing. turned it on to hboot, restarted, then got the image of a phone with a caution sign. got into Android system restore utility, and it says E:cant read MISC: (no space left on device) i data/factory wiped, said complete, tried to flash an update.zip from the recovery utility, keeps comming up no signature. i tried 4 different roms. wtf?
[Hero CDMA General] mrcharlesiv:
If the RUU was successful then you wouldn't be able to access the recovery console b/c it restores the phone & takes away root. I'd try the RUU again... Maybe download it again and be sure you follow every step to a T. It's not bricked cause it's turning on. Good luck!
[Hero CDMA General] blankd3ckskat3r:
im not talking about the rooted recovery console. im talking about the built in android recovery utility. my pc cant find my phone.
[Hero CDMA General] mrcharlesiv:
Built in Android Recovery? Never seen that... Idk man. I'd be running the RUU over and over all day. If that doesn't work go into a Sprint store and say your phone "just won't turn on for some reason." :cool:
[Hero CDMA General] mrcharlesiv:
How do you access the built in recovery??
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
The stock android recovery is the ! screen with no options. BTW, there isn't adb access via android recovery, you need Amon_RA's or Cyanogen's
[Hero CDMA General] mrcharlesiv:

[Hero CDMA General] knx2:
Try holding down the house and the back key and turning on the phone... should be a hard phone reset that may work.
[Hero CDMA General] RTessi:
This is untrue (unfortunately, I know from experience)... My phone "turned on" but would go into a specific FastBoot menu that did not allow anything to be performed that would take it out of that state... many people have gotten stuck at the same place and nobody has a solution. Its the Error 110 when RUU-ing...

[HD2 General] Hereisphilly:
Hi guys, any help on this would be much appreciated,

After i update my rom (which i'm a big fan of btw), i plug the device into my PC, and connect up outlook. This syncs all my contacts.

Immediately, they are all paired with the relevant facebook profiles, so i can see the status updates, access online albums etc etc, all from within the people tab.

However, the contact picture doesnt change. When i edit the contact picture, the facebook picture is already downloaded, its just the phone isnt using it.

Is there a way to tell the phone to always use the facebook picture, instead of waiting for my prompt?

Because otherwise it takes a good half hour to manually go through 200+ people!

Thanks for any help on this
[HD2 General] kishanbhashyam:
There is a way... on your contacts page, go to all contacts and at the bottom tabs-go to updates, its a icon with a clock - go to Menu and update.. it even updates new contacts; like if u had a person on you list and if he\she wasnt on facebook earlier and u just added them, it would link them to your contacts.. try it out..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Diagrafeas:
I just noticed something.

The first time you extract an *.nbh Visual Kitchen puts a *.cer file in Tools Folder for every package of the ROM.

I am cooking ROMs for a year now an i never had even one *.cer file in this folder but the rom always worked.

So are these *.cer files needed for something anyway?

Maybe they are needed if you use an EXT Package from a different phone?

Hi!

I've published an Android app that create and manage swap file.

you can:

* set swap file position (FAT or EXT SD card partition)

* set swap file size

* enable swap on boot (or not)

if you don't have a swap partition or you need to change the swap file size... this app is what you need!

after configuration, the swap become active: for check type 'free' on your G1 Terminal app!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Avatar28:
Is there any way to make a given application run portably? Specifically, I want to be able to take a given app, install it to my SD card in such a way that I can back up the shortcuts and then the next time I flash a ROM or hard reset I have only to copy the shortcuts to my start menu folder and have the application work without further fuss.

As examples of some specific programs, in games I would like to be able to keep my save games and progress, my configuration for MortPlayer, etc.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Wil Badger:
Yep there is no reason why you can't do that. You might want to do some reading as most custom ROMs have either Sashimi or UC (User Customization).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jfrm:
I have some hundreds of portabilized winmo apps. Most of the apps I use don't need to be installed, including 100% of the games.

Normaly I install once, copy full folder to any other location, then uninstall, then try to run from this other location.

If the app run, you got it portable and only need to create new links in start menu.

If it don't, you could install again and try to find if there is a registry keys for the app, back up the key, copy the app to any other place, unistall the app, import reg key and try again.

If it don't work maybe it cop some files to windows or any other system folder...

To recover the new Start Menu links after flashing, you could use UC or sashimi as sugested previously.

what do you guys think about this?? t-mobile it's getting the hd2 and sprint might get the supersonic, supposedly the supersonic has 3.7 or 4.3 screen inch same as hd2, but hd2 runs windows mobile and supersonic will run android, what do you guy think about this two powerful smarthphones? which one would be better? will t-mobile have any chances of getting the supersonic? will supersonic launch on june of 2010?

[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
get supersonic if it has 4.3 display android now is better
[HD2 General] lude219:
I'm not going to change carrier just for a phone. They're pretty much similar in specs and the battle between WinMo vs Android comes down to personal preference, really. Still, at the end of the day, I'd rather have a SIM card than not (Sprint has horrible receptions around here anyway).
[HD2 General] toxtrepla:
lol @ questions about speculating.

If the Supersonic gets released, and it has the same hardware as the HD2, then it will be just as much of a monster as the HD2.

I REALLY don't understand the mentality of people who believe Android is the best mobile OS right now. Currently owning a G1 since launch day (and a Nexus One for a week), I can testify to it's many shortcomings. Windows Mobile isn't perfect, but in terms of stability it's on a different level entirely.
[HD2 General] adrian_nene16:
i have t-mobile and i will buy the hd2 since i dont really like sprint but.. the supersonic seems good too, i hope doesnt come with 4.3 in screen because i will be soo jealous because most the people in this forum want android in hd2 and supposedly the supersonic will be just like hd2 but in android, i have never got an android phone but ill stick with the hd2 maybe if the supersonic it has same hardware as hd2 people from xda can hack it and we can be able to use it on hd2, who knows :)
[HD2 General] cscoot03:
In my oppinion , to answer your question, how developed is Android & how deeveloped is Windows. Seems Windows has more experience than Android. To me the Supersonic is coming out of left field to try & imitate & take some of the glory away from the King-HD2, me, it's HD2 all the way.
[HD2 General] cscoot03:
Oh yea Sprint is on it's last breath, not very many people use sprint, regardleess they say it's #3(which doesn't make sense, w/lousy customer support included) & Tmo is #4 with the best plans & the best phones & great customer support (been to them all & Tmo is where I'm going back to w/no complaints). a year & a half I've been waiting & next week I'll be happy again.

[HD2 General] cscoot03:
Well i don't think so but it's posible you see Win7 seems to be their new direction which seems Ok in a way concidering the big hassle Apple is giving so many manufactures which leaves Windows free & clear. Personally, maybe I'll use Win 7 on my PC but I don't have all that much of a need for it on the HD2.
