Again wisdom, the problem lies with the OS and Hardware, i dont think HTC and WM will ever take advantage of the specific hardware in our devices for the sole reason that there too many differences. Why do you think the iphone runs so smooth...well think about it an OS designed for its proprietary hardware/software, the OS is taking full advantage of the hardware's efficiency. But with proprietary software comes a drawback, developers need to redesign there software to run on that specific device, this is where i think WM wins because its OS architecture has been out for so long being its universal capabilities with hardware where else apple likes to stick to there own s**t, well thats dandy and all but it doesn't work all that well with developers that started off with windows for so many years, so now we need new developers to start fresh. look at all the apps not on the marketplace that have been out for years..apple doesn't come close, the marketplace just makes it easyier for our users today to find what they need, "Competition". please correct me if im wrong but this is my view. I always thought about this for example take your PC's hardware running Windows and tell a game developer to design a game to your specific hardware and OS, just imagine the performance difference to a universal platform game, thats why alot of games designed for an apple computer run most of the time 50% to 100% better then the same game on windows pc without having to upgrade your videocard... Im still waiting for the day that the hardware in our HTC WM devices are matched perfectly with the correct/proper drivers! My HD2 which you bought for me :) is fast as hell, but just imagine how much faster it can be...This is just my 2 cents.

You still understood what he was saying did you not? We all have are strong and weak points. Your reply would have been fine without "

[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
Hey it was just one more suggestion to help solve his problem. Nothing like speaking clearly and being able to get the point across. Do you like to talk to somebody who mumbles under their breath all day. Do you like to talk to somebody who incoherently babbles? I doubt you do. No different here, I have no problem helping people, I have no problem trying to figure out what somebody is saying but when it's a complete paragraph of gibberish there is not much I can do. I could understand if he was some where in Europe and English was not his primary language.
[HD2 General] ManTheDan:
I understand your logic, but you understood him enough to answer him. Why embarrass him? But I'm sure that wasn't your intention. Let's all just help each other out in harmony that's all i am getting at. :D:D:D:D:D:D
[HD2 General] Darkcloud25:
Thanks for you help, but as for the "Do you like to talk to somebody who mumbles under their breath all day.” I didn’t know that you can hear me. Now you sound like you need help when you read you not hearing if you need help there are classes that can help you with that issue your having: D. as for the English languish there has been tests and experiments that if the spelling or how the sentence, paragraph ect. Is written does not mean that you cant understand. Here take a look http://forums.techarena.in/off-topic-chat/1205040.htm: D but hey thanks and ive been editing, tweaking& flashing roms for about 3 yrs now. im just tired of doing it just want a phone that works that’s not apple or android, but again yes thanks for the help.
[HD2 General] ajftl:
OMAAAGAAAA.... ur serious? Iphone is the greatest phone ever period.. apps for child's? LOL go to the apps store and u would find 200 bucks and up apps and u telling me they are for child's.. Doctors use iphones... why? cause the apps ... medical apps! http://www.softwareadvice.com/artic...ne-apps-for-doctors-and-med-students-1100709/

im a owner of a HTC HD2 too and his totally right.. windows is plain crap craaaaaaaaap.. it destroyed this beautiful phone...

LOL @ iphones are for child's.... LMAO

u obviously a iphone hater....... and yes i went back to my 3GS
[HD2 General] ajftl:
JUST STFU!!!!!!!!
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
At least this thread is good for one thing, getting a good laugh.

And yes I do hate Apple with a passion. You like it so much go buy an iPhone and STFU yourself. I never said every app was childish or made for children I simply said they are marketed more towards children or should I say the simple minded. Hence it is a child's toy.
[HD2 General] ManTheDan:
Why don't you go multi task or better yet, find some flash support other than youtube. Like paying for apps?, because without them the phone is useless. Wil Badger is right ive used every Iphone 2G, 3G, 3GS and there's no personalization at all other than changing your lock screen wallpaper. Buy an iphone and your like everyone else that doesn't even know what to do with it other than show the useless apps instead of the productive ones. At my company i see this everyday, iphone is something pretty and sleek & only loves to run one app at a time. With WM out of the box you have all the tools you need even a task manager. So don't come in here raving about how amazing an iphone is, Because in the real world windows run over 80% of this world, oh i forgot yes we get hacked and viruses but there's a reason why: because you can actually get important information and software out of windows, corporations and business mostly. I personally wouldn't waste my time hacking a mac to steal itunes music...Not to mention im installing Parallels and Bootcamp for mac users everyother day.Apple is simple and plain for everyone to play with. No customization, No Multi tasking, No Flash support, and dependant on only Apps. But you can still get everything you need done, I like the fact that you can mold windows to your personality if you don't like this you change it, if you want this you add it without going broke...Windows = Advanced user, Apple = Simple user that is what apple strives for just look at the Ipad... My 2 cents :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[HD2 General] ajftl:
Ok. I was(for real) trying to reply to u on the HD2( yes I have both phone. Hd2 and 3gs) and was taking me to long cause opera ****ing up the scrolling and where I want it to start typing.... So got the iPhone and replying u from the iPhone. Yes about the flash thing and iPhones but what about opera lacking flash too. And don't tell me u use IE lol. Or they're is a tweak to make flash work with opera yada yada ...

I love the HD2. Just hate windows. And everyone else is saying the same thing. Not only me. For now the iPhone is the best OS for a phone Period. Hope something comes out for the hd2.

I just hate when people talk BS without knowing ****. Talking iPhone apps are for childs. Lol.

HD2 rocks. Windows suck.
[HD2 General] ManTheDan:
Um im using Opera 10 and it supports flash (once you enable the plug-in option in settings), seems like you just joined XDA to talk s**t about Windows which is used in alot of htc phones, Hence your on Xda-Developers. "For now the iPhone is the best OS for a phone" its the only OS for an iphone, and its not that its the best its a screen with big buttons, not much knowlege to use there...kids love it!. Windows can do more than an apple iphone out of the box without installing any kind of software. But "Windows suck". I have never heard an exact reason why windows so called "suck" i just hear every Iphone user say that. just seems like you guys dont like to use a start menu... Are you also carrying a picture of Steve Jobs in your wallet as well?
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
That got a good giggle out of me. Most likely sleeps with a picture of him by his bed.
[HD2 General] :
Wow, umm...I have to say, that s**t really gets kicked up around here pretty good. I mean let's face it, the iPhone is a great phone for grandparents who are out of touch with real tech, children with who just want the next cool thing, and immature adults just interested in 80,000+ farting apps. What's not to love?

The HD2 is meant for people who actually want a smartphone that is customizable. But hey if you eat every not-so-golden egg that drops from Steve Jobs a**, then by all means, use an iPhone.

You wouldn't buy a car that had a lock on the hood, would you? No, when you buy a car the manufacturer tells you that if you mod it you void your warranty, but the choice is left up to you. Same principle with phones. The iPhone is like a car with a hood welded shut and plating to prevent all to access key parts. Pretty much useless unless the dealer wants to make a change.

Just my Two-Cents.

[HD2 General] Darkcloud25:
I Understand and somewhat agree with you on what you said. Which is where windows does not pull everyone. Now me myself I’m a hardcore gamer and web surfer :) which most of the time Winmo does not shine in that area. Even though there are different versions of Winmo 5-6 they have not changed much of the user interface. Thanks to HTC sense and other manufactures like Samsung, SPB mobile shell and others making their unique UI Winmo would look horrible. So not much has changed and that why developers don’t really focus on making better apps and games for windows mobile. The HD2 is a great phone and it’s not HTC's hardware or fault why the phone isn't running like a Ferrari out of the box. as for apple theres a lot of apps but and one single hardware once single OS. No other OS but apples which is why apps run so much smoother so why make apps for various devices with up to 40 different hardware specs with a OS that unstable at times depending on the device, as for apple being the ish no apple blows and android says it all on its own the htc legend, HTC desirer and the HTC EVO will put an end to apple in a few months. I’m not going to get in it to android and why apple will fall to android because the OS is always evolving another time. :) So if I talk so much but I just do because I’m a guy we love proving points lol. WP7S don’t fail me man lol :D
[HD2 General] dkb218:
I REFUSE to read this whinny ass rambling. This thread should be deleted. Fast. Who the hell wants to read on long ass sentence.

I have to agree. The iPhone isn't for children. It's for simple people. Its for grandma and the rest of the technology challenged crowd. That's just who apple made the idiot proof phone for [what the hell do you think the "I" stands for? Sure doesn't stand for intelligent].
[HD2 General] eyan15:
This is exactly what I wanted to say (though I won't call all the apps in iPhone childish). But the base logic is perfect.

Android/iPhone are made for one set of people and WM/Maemo are for the other set.

I won't call one better than the other. But coming for a deep WM background(from 2003, and about 8-9 Devices), I love the OS. I love the fact that I need to spend time to get things the way I want. Then decide I like another ROM and do everything all over again.

Same with Maemo, I'll give you an example. In the same week (24th Nov), I got both myTouch 3G and N900.

In myTouch 3G, I enter my google id/pswd and all set to go. I have my contacts/calender and mail ready. 30 mins I'm bored.

Now N900, it took me about 1-2hrs to setup all my email and fight with to get my contacts on. I tired the google exchange found it doesnt work then tried Nuevasync, but contacts won't sync. It was a pain in the arse. But loved the exp, the sense of accomplishment. I loved it so much I bought it again in when I lost (I not rich, but an addict)

So there you go, I won't call you stupid if you like iPhone/Android. In fact I do own a 3GS and often advice people to get it or the N1 but what i would say is don't compare these phone. If you find 3GS/N1 a wee bit attractive then by all means get it and you won't be dissapointed and you won't loose out on anything.

But if you like to get your hands dirty in all 'terminal' glory, it doesn't get better than HD2/N900. These are the last hurrays of a dying trend

The HD2 is for grown ups. Android for is teenagers. IPhone is for dummies.

[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
I actually have to say I have not got my hands on a droid long enough to really say anything. I have how ever played with it on my Fuze and plan on loading it onto the HD2 when they get a kernal that runs. As much as I hate Linux and dealing with command line after command line I can deal with it to have a droid OS. Hell if it's got good hardware it is really no different then a Winmo phone. The OS is hackable and you are still able to do what you want for the most part.
[Nexus One Accessories] erinata:
Do we have a Nexus One case with battery?............(Or Does apple has a Patent for that >_<)
[Nexus One Accessories] Talderon:
This is a good idea, if it looked nice and complimented the device... Chances are though, Apple has a patent for that too... >.<
[Nexus One Accessories] boomer30:
I would love to have my hands on one of those........
[Nexus One Accessories] Antiskunk:
This would be REALLY useful.

I don't think Apple has a patent on it since they're manufactured by various third party companies.

Problem is the iPhone hasn't changed shape for three years and has millions of sales, so it's easy to see they could make money on it, whereas there are not many N1's and it will probably be outdated soon.

Hopefully they'll do it anyway :P

ok my track ball wont go down... im past 30 days but i guess i have a 1 year warrenty that comes with it. since my ball wont go down i cant properly use my recovery menu. or half my apps -.-"... well my main question is if im at 2.1root can i return it like that or will they notice ive been playing with it and ill be stuck.. please reply my dad planned on taking me for tomarrow n i need to know if i should downgrade or whatever

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zer0_Cool:
There is a chance that they would notice, but if it's simply the trackball that's problematic, I doubt they'll go into your system info that much.

Option A.) Downgrade and don't risk it (your getting a new phone most likely anyway if it is truly broken.

Option B.) Take the new weather/clock widget and other stuff that is obviously from 2.1 off your home screen(s), and try to use the ones that look like they are from 1.5. That would be enough to trick a random person who doesn't have any experience with an eris I would think...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zifnab06:
I would recommend calling customer support. They don't ask that many questions. Just, if its rooted, restore to 1.5 using jcase's method.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Palmbxr:
thanks alot :) so its possable to downgrade without needing my trackball to go down?? lmao
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lemcott:
hmm... does anyone know if this is a problem with 2.1 in general? I'm still on 2.1leak (dont want to upgrade to anything else in fear that leak will be able to root before whatever i upgrade to) and my ball wont go down.

I was going to go into verizon tomorrow to get it replaced so i could go root instead... but if anyone thinks that's a bad idea let me know.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lemcott:
yep, I just went to the verizon store, a new unit is being sent to me in a couple days.

but,back on topic. I'm fairly certain 2.1 voided the warranty over the air. When i went to go in to get a replacement unit, they couldn't figure out why my phone was out of warranty when i just got it back in november/december.

Is there anyway that updating to 2.1 verizon pinged the phone or the phone pinged verizon and they marked it out of warranty?

the representatives there just did some work around in the computer to give me my warranty, thankfully they weren't too smart to look at the firmware number (it was locked even if they tried).

(one representative just had a can of compressed air blowing directly on the trackball for like 2 minutes... i couldn't believe he even tried that :/ )

also, does the replacement unit still come with the 8gb sd card? that's a freaking deal right there.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] listyb01:
I have received many (many!) replacements from big red and they have always required that I send the "bad" device back. You are given 10 days from the time you receive the replacement, then the old one goes back or you pay :D The only way you may be able to keep the old one is via insurance claim, not sure on this.

When you get a referb form VZW it will be bare bones device without battery, back cover, SD. Nothing but the phone (again insurance claim may be different).
