I just really dont like Samsung devices.. they are too much like cheap chinese toys with really bizarre functions that never quite step up to the mark.

I'm sure they've released a couple of serious handsets but all the ones I've used are very much WTF!?!?!
[Desire General] roma_pop:
Agreed with previous , with phones samsung not going well ,

but looking on hardware specs i consider to take this one -

just if it will be in android os!!!
[Desire General] remko1981:
Since buying my Omnia II im so disillusiond with samsung. It had the best specs when it came on the market. But the horrible OS thats on it! I had to buy a shell and have flashed numerous roms to be able to use the phone anywhere near normal. And now a year later the phone still has not got working opengl drivers. And development has probably stopped on the phone.

Never a samsung again for me.

I'm so jealous of you guys who have a desire (just a few more months till contract renewal!!)
[Desire General] networxpsc:
I've both wave and desire, what should i say ... the wave is a nice piece of electronics, fantastic display and good quality but bada is not as good as samsung want us to believe. very little apps, half-baked apps (email e.g.) and often unintuitive handling. It has not that flexibility android has. But in deed batterylife is much better then any other smartphone i know except blackberrys and we've to consider that its version 1.0, so maybe bada's development is as fast as android's - as is know samsung, i don't believe.
[Desire General] roma_pop:
It's looks like similar for me, but for Eten devices, so at least clear now the situation.

Then need to wait similar device from HTC , about 3.2-3.5", 1GHz, small weight and powerful battery on Android

:confused:
[Desire General] Thugsin313:
have you heard of the HTC Legend??? :p
[Desire General] Flaggie:
As you can read in his message, he is looking for a 1 ghz phone, so that excludes the htc legend. But yes if he is willing to live without that the legend would probably be a great choice.
[Desire General] roma_pop:
HTC Legend has HVGA, even Diamond have VGA.

And sure cpu a bit week, for my opinion sure.

Design - don't like this angle of bottom of device :(

Rest is ok
[Desire General] Dekar:
Hey - I am a G1-Cyanogen user and Samsung just gave me a free Wave, so throw your questions at me - I'll try to give you the information you need to make a decision.

Overall I am not too sure how much I like the Device. Too much lockdown, no multitasking (only one 3rd Party app at the same time, JavaME isn't limited), but awesome camera with face recognition and smile/blinking detection. Also 720p recording AND PLAYBACK. So far it played almost everything I threw at it. Random MKV and AVI files, h264 as well as normal MP4 - It also decodes AC3. The only thing it refused to play was some 1080p video - it stated "resolution not supported!". Battery life is totally awesome as well, first charge sucked but right now it has been playing h264/720p for about 3 hours, and still >50% battery left. I hate that it has no proper messenger. It ships with Palringo JavaME messenger but you can't switch to Landscape mode while running JavaME apps - so the keyboard sucks. I really love my G1s hardware keyboard -.-"
[Desire General] silverwolf0:
Dude you need to expand your samsung horizon. I went on a cellphone shopping binge a few years back going from Nokias to Sony-ericssons to Motorolas to Blackberry's to Samsungs. Mind these were all dumbphones or used as dumbphones. Samsungs had the nicest build quality, were fashionable, and had the non-ugliest interface. I still luv my slider even though it can't really do anything. Those samsung flip phones so prevalent on US carriers are built like tanks, made especially for the 300lb American gorillas and hippos. I dunno about their smartphone or touchscreen line and they may indeed be prolly bad, but don't dis a tech company because tech and quality varies so widely from product to product, you'll just end up biting yourself in the ass. I've just recently reconciled my differences with Motorola, but still have a condescending eye on Nokia, but I'll jump ship any day if something good comes out. Because tech companies are like a woman on a menstrual cycle. Some good days, some bad.
[Desire General] maximus451:
Got to admit the wave was quite good in all aspects but unfortunateley the os just doesnt cut it .Android all the way, and this is after being a symbian fan for almost 12 years.
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
I don't think Bada will be around much longer, Samsung seem to be supporting Android pretty well despite having their own OS :confused:
[Desire General] musschrott:
Their game plan is to put Bada on every feature phone and Wave is most likely the upper end of that portfolio. The upcoming bada phones will have smaller resolution, slower cpu etc. Samsung will support both OS for a while and see which platform will work out better for them. As they control everything with bada including the app store it has better earning potential, but they might find themself unable to compete with the android swarm.
[Desire General] Lukehluke:
Ah that makes sense.

Their Bada OS doesn't look that bad but it probably won't be able to compare to Android.
[Desire General] AtomicKoala:
Yeah in the long run

As for those saying get a Gal S instead of a Wave, its €150 more.

Shame no devs want to port Android to it :(
[Desire General] lohpsch:
Wave x Desire

Had a Wave for 3 weeks before I decided to change to the Desire and I don't regret my choice.

True that 3.3" is small, but that 480x800 super amoled is the best I ever used.

Almost all scatched metal body on the Wave feels much more solid.

Most of all (for me), battery life is almost twice as the Desire.

If the Wave had come out with Android it would be my choice.

Unfortunately, Bada is (for now) the OS of a single model of a single manufacturer (and it is not Apple) and all you get is what comes in the box.

Couldn't find an eBook Reader, a Text Editor, some alternative Media Player...

I'm curious about the Galaxy S though.

:rolleyes:

you will need to reflash your diamond, and how to do that you have a s*it load of reading to do, if you never done it before
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr.horndoctor:
;) All you need to do is download your shipped rom and run the exe once you are synced with your pc.

I have a question.

There is a site elementsthegame.com this is an online card game.

the problem is that this page is a flash page and i want to know if there is any way that i can see it with my Opera browser with my diamond so i can play this game from my phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Max BrainBox:
Try PIE instead of Opera

I use Opera 98% of the time, but there are sites (mostly Flash based) that just work better on Pocket Internet Explorer.
[Touch CDMA General] mrono:
So i got my new phone from a warranty replacement, flashed android on it and put the data on the SD card, 10minutes later then phone won't read the card and locks up, I reboot and find out that the android bootloader won't read the SD card, and won't until i pull the battery and card then put both back in. I've tried it with 2 separate cards and neither want to work correctly. I'm currently trying to put winmo on to test if it has the same problem.

My problem is that it's not constant, so i can't go into the store and point and say look.

-Is there somehow i can test the card in the phone, either winmo or android (pref winmo since i have to lock it if i send it in)

-Is it possible that this is an android only problem?

On a side note, i'm pretty sure this phone has problems of it's own, it refuses to mount the SD card when connected to USB, in android it 'mounts' but 3 seconds later it says preparing sd card and resets the USB connection. In winmo it seems to work just fine
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
You may have a dirty or damaged set of pins in the card port.
[Touch CDMA General] clmartin22:
I just started having the same problem with my tilt, did you come up with a solution
[Touch CDMA General] mrono:
yeah, told sprint they gotta replace it or ima come over to their house with a baseball bat, got my new one last tuesday and haven't had a problem. I suspect it was something with the hardware, not sure what though, it would work for either 10 seconds or hours so i'm not sure what it was. It wasn't software though...

[HD2 General] pumafab:
Hi,

We have some HTC HD2s in at work and want to send one out for testing but we don't want the person testing it to be able to open any applications or games, just the application we want them to use.

Is there any software for administration rights on the phone?

Cheers!
[HD2 General] Neville.Holland:
Make your way over to SPB Softwarehouse. They have a program that will fulfil your needs. Not sure if there is a free version...

You could also remove all of the links under the Start Menu. That might hamper their efforts. But I can see a couple of ways round that...

Incidentally, your a tease giving someone an HD2 then locking it down.....:eek::p
[HD2 General] pumafab:
Thanks will have a look!

Yeah we have to lock it down as they are meant to be conducting surveys and we don't want them getting lost playing on games!

Help

For the last week when i am on a call the wi-fi turns its self on evry time, the only thing i have done is install S2U2 on my HD2
[HD2 General] jsmith_00:
bump!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HD2 General] mlh01:
I also had this problem. Lately this problem has gone. But is is strange!
[HD2 General] ozkaya:
I have this problem also. Do you have push email enabled?
[HD2 General] Gorheru:
I also have this problem and yes, I have push email enabled. But I cannot resign from this becuase I like it. How to make not turning on the wi fi during call? It's so annoying.
[HD2 General] ozkaya:
well, since you can't have a cell data connection and a phone call at the same time (at least for edge, I'm not sure about 3G) the only way Activesync can stay connected during a call remains Wifi. That's why I'm guessing it is turning Wifi on. Anyway, push email/calendar is more important for me than touching Wifi toggle icon in my homescreen after a call ;)
[Hero CDMA General] mroneeyedboh:
I know this is a general question , but i was wondering whats up with them. Are they all working the same? Same options, same stuff inside? What are you running and why?
[Hero CDMA General] MagnusRagnarok:
DARCHLEGENDv4.1

I have been testing constantly for the past 4 days. I ran damagev1 for 2 days and really liked it. When the new darchlegend v4.1 came out i started trying to make an aosp like fix for it......And i was successful. So this is my new setup:

-AOSP notification bar

-Pearl colored espresso bar

-Helix Launcher(for AOSP_N1 Look&Feel)

-My LWP Fixes to make them a STABLE part of the rom

-All the rest of the features that are part of the Legend rom

The reasons i chose this rom were because its the newest legend build. My present setup has features that wont even be included in the official 2.1(lwp+N1 launcher +7 screens). Its official, My rom hunt is OVER......FOR NOW....
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
Cant remember where I read it but somewhere someone linked an image of the release specs for 2.1 and lwps were on it. Not sure if its true or not, but it might be. ;)

I'm also using DarchLegendV4.1 its the snappiest, cleanest, and most fully functioning one I've used so far between both 2.0 fresh roms and damages. But really it comes down to what your looking for they're all pretty functional. The Legend leak has friendstream which is awesome if you use facebook and twitter it also has a google latitude widget which rocks. I was using fresh2.0b2 for quite awhile but with the fresh roms and the damagecontrol one I had issues with my contacts syncing with facebook and grabbing pictures sometimes it did and sometimes it didnt and some times it synced but no picture until they called lol. I'm noticing no sync issues with the legend build (except gmail but out of all of them out so far they all do that on and off).

Well thats my quick review hope it helps, but as a side note if you nandroid back up you cant loose anything by testing them all. My suggestion flash one for a awhile and see if you like then backup and flash another. Hope that helps. :)
[Hero CDMA General] typeadam:
DamageControl v1.0

- at the time I flashed it, it was the only fully functional 2.1 ROM

- the smoothness, speed, and responsiveness of my Hero now is like an iCan't (absolutely no lag)

- everything functions perfectly - trackball light, LED, sync, contacts, MMS, EVERYTHING

- even w/ a pig like Home++ it's amazingly fast

* only thing is I WISH is that it came w/ the stock Android notification bar (white)
[Hero CDMA General] Roman G:
I was running DC 1.0, but found out that stereo blue-tooth actually works on the stock Rom so now I am back to stock until the release!

I was having really bad skips and pauses with any Rom so I just figured it was A2DP just sucked, but for some reason it just sucks on all the Roms that I have tried, and I have tried at least 15 of them! Found out day before yesterday someone else was having the same issue as I and went back to the stock Rom and everything was perfect!
[Hero CDMA General] mroneeyedboh:
Ok guysv thanks. What about thaat gumbo kernal? Is that included with all of the 2.1 roms. Should i also flash that new radio too? Freshes rom.
[Hero CDMA General] Street_Knowledge:
I am on damagecontrol 1.1 and my button lights and trackball light still act wonky, did I miss a fix?
[Hero CDMA General] Darkshneider:
An "Unleashed" 2.1 :).
[Hero CDMA General] aauussttiinn88:
what is that?
[Hero CDMA General] Darkshneider:
Its a fast secret, lol. Its pretty much bits and pieces of the Legend and Incredible dump.
[Hero CDMA General] aauussttiinn88:
im soooo bored at work lol care to share?
[Hero CDMA General] VinceOB:
I went back to Gumbo 1.5c. Reason being is that there are still too many bugs on all the 2.1 releases. This also means im done making different themes on 2.1. Its because every single 2.1 ROM uses different frameworks some older than others...If I make it for one not everyone will be happy because they cant use it on another...oh well....
[Hero CDMA General] aauussttiinn88:
im nand restoring as we speak my time without signal just started freaking out with 94% time with out signal...i can wait a week or so plus i kinda forgot how 1.5 feels haha
[Hero CDMA General] rlaxton:
I hear ya, that's when I do most of my phone hacking!
[Hero CDMA General] Bielinsk:
I keep loading up Darch 4.1 but then go back to Damage. DC just runs really really well and everything works.

I do like friendstream, and I like the new icon buttons, bookmark widget, etc from the legend build.
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
I'm working on my own legend based rom I plan on calling ZenDroid.

Also the 2.1 releases have a kernel of their own. Gumbo kernel will break them.
[Hero CDMA General] typeadam:
Not that I'm aware of... Only fix I applied was the MMS one... Lights were never a problem. Once at the very first boot they wouldn't turn on but after I rebooted haven't had a problem since..
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
Oh well you specifically said that your trackball lights up perfectly..

didn't mean that did you... ?
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Have you tried the "Huge Battery Life Fix" thread? fixed mine, 24 hours later still not an issue any more.
[Hero CDMA General] bcnice20:
Darchlegend 4.1 may not be quite as smooth as damages rom for some people but I'm loving it so far mns was my biggest deciding factor though
[Hero CDMA General] troyboytn:
My 2 cents here.....after trying all current roms, Fresh 2.0b2 with my own "tweaks", cant be beat (for my tastes). Using GV for VVM(imo....better than Sprint VVM) . The only issue I have is the lack of Pics in Gmail. I can live with that til Flipz customizes the upcoming "official" rom.
[Hero CDMA General] :
Same here man. Lack of pics? Are they supposed to display in the email rather than an attachment?

I also have that web app bug, but luckily I don't use any. (Bank of America screwed me one to many times)

+1 for 2.0b2
[Hero CDMA General] nimitz87:
what is the pics in gmail problem? its showing up in the email fine for me.

I'm using Flipz 2.02b w/ the updated radio I haven't played with DC, or Darch yet I'm using Youmail inplace of GV

my gripes are the log in errors, lack of facebook sync. do DC or darch fix these issues?

honestly I think out of any of the 3 there isn't a "bad" one.

[Hero CDMA General] toastcfh:
I have my own custom build. We will call it "crumbs" for the purpose of this thread. Crumbs is based off of a new leaked legend build. I like it for many reasons. It's fast, stable, and has no issues. The browser has the text selection like the other legend builds and it sports friendstream. It's just one I've ported and have had no issues with as of yet. Before I was running freshh and tested other builds. On the forum I liked freshh the most. One because he added a lot of icons and stuff for me and it just ran real well with no issues except video recorder. From what I can tell though a choice on roms is all opinion. What u want and don't.

Hi peoples..Look...I tryed before Win 6.1 in Qtek s100...Worked fine...After 10 days,he is dead... : ) reason ? stupid touch sensor dont work...I buyed new HTC TyTN and I use official Win 6.0....Well,problem is bcs HTC TyTN have 400 Mhz and I think that is he 10-15% slower than Intel processor with 416...Well,best thing in Cotulla Windows 6.1 OS is CPU Clock Speed in control panel.Offcourse,I dont have it in my TyTN.Cpu clock speed really work and increase perfomances in Qtek,especially if you check Agressive mode..I tryed to transfer only CPL file (Control panel extension) from Cotulla Win 6.1 rom to `mine`...This file appear control panel.I check Agressive mode,but I am not sure,that this work.He cant save `my settings`...After reboot,I need again to check.I am not interest to try to change speed,bcs Samsung processors is not good (or cant) to be overclocked,but this Agressive mode in Cotulla win 6.1 ROM really increase performance.My question is: This is some Windows optimization or some thing for CPU ? Bcs,in Qtek no more lag for example in Start menu... I want same in TyTN...

Agressive mode 100% work IN TYTN if I dont close that window in control panel ! I tryed to scroll Start menu.Much faster ! but when I type ok he close window and dont save...How to make him to save?second stupid question is: Every Windows 6.1 have CPU clock speed in control panel? (I only need Agressive mode,bcs than I dont have lag and phone is really faster)...This os Win 6.0 (official HTC ) work very good (yes,and MMS...camera fantastic...),so I dont want to change rom...But if every Win 6.1 have this `system` in control panel,I will change rom...Tnx friend.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thomas_b:
Hello Everyone and welcome to the first program I provide to the community!

As we all know, a constant bluetooth connection drains your battery quickly.

Now what I've done here is a program, that toggles BT-Radio unter certain conditions

You can (at the moment) choose:

Enable BT when a call comes in

Enable BT when you place a call

Enable BT whe the phone is charging

If a condition is no longer valid, BT will be switched off, i.e. if you end

your call, BT Radio will be disabled again.

Requirements:-NET CF 3.5

Usage: Choose your options and select 'run and hide' from the menu.

This has got a hard coded smart minimize, as the program needs to run in background.

Settings are saved as you make them, there's no save button.

Please bear in mind, this is BETA.

It works for me so far and I hope for willing testers, so any suggestions for further

functionality or bug reports are welcome!

I've posted it under Blackstone because that's the device it's been developed and tested with.

Anyone who wants to install on a different device is fine with me, and as soon as it's stable I'll

post it on general level.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Thomas

P.S.: Pleeeeze don't call it 'App' :D

Important:

This programm will only work with devices that implement the MS-Bluetooth stack (such as the blackstone).

Widcomm driven devices (HD2 or HD Mini) will not work!

As soon as I find a decent way, to control the Widcomm stack from C#, I'll provide a version for this.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] thomas_b:
Changelog / Bugs

20/03/2010

BT switched off after a few sec on incomming call - FIXED

26/03/2010

BT stopped, when charging was completed - FIXED

Code for Charging detection was completely rewritten

BT stopped after a few seconds on outgoing call - FIXED

BT switches on late on outgoing call. Improved (not sure if I can get that any faster :confused:).

Basic functions should be fine now.

Added function to permanently disable BT below a choosable Battery level (this is totally untested...).

The GUI has changed slightly (I'll sort out a propper GUI later).

XML settings file has been moved to application directory

background thread speeded up considerably (prog. still shows up with 0,0% CPU when running in B/G.

Found a tester with a touch diamond :)

31/03/2010

Build in debug option added

how to use it:

In the applications directory open the file BtProfilerSettings.xml with a suitable editor.

Somewhere in the settings node add the following line: <WriteLog>X</WriteLog>

Restart the program.

In your device's root directory you'll find a trace file per day, named '3132010BTProfiler_Debug.txt' (thats the one for today)

Please note, that entries are not necessarily in the exact order, as there are 2 separate threads, one dealing with System events and one polling data every second. Thats why entries may even occur twice.

01/04/2010

Code for BT Radio control rewritten, now uses direct P/I invoke instead of MS Shared Sources dll. Seems to be a lot quicker in enabling BT :)

08/04/2010

New version uploaded.

New functions:

Option to enable BT in discoverable mode

Enable BT for 60 seconds

Enable BT permanently

GUI changed to black (as this is BLACKstone...not Greystone :) )

I refrained from creating a fancy new GUI in order to keep the footprint in Memory small.

It is still beta, but apart from the HD2 issue we're getting somewhere.

enjoy!

Wishlist / ToDo

Option to enable BT for 60 seconds manually (for file transfer or other purposes) - DONE

Option to enable BT when the Dialer shows up to reduce response time on outgoing calls (not sure if this is still required..).

Scheduler to enable / disable BT.

Separate GUI from Worker Thread to get rid of the smart minimize and enable Autostart option (WIP).
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jolas:
It looks very useful to me, as I use HD with BT handset.

I will test it and let you know how it works for me.

Thanks!:)

EDIT: Quick Report:

At first call-in, it turns ON BT and handset correctly, but if I let the phone ring, it closes the BT after a few seconds. After that, in second call it does nothing.

At a call out, it does nothing (BT remains closed).
