[Desire General] drewsta_j:
Heya, I own and still own a iphone 3GS 32GB.

I've had the Desire for around 2 weeks now.

I have been waying up which device I should keep as they are both great devices.

In terms of speed, I can't really see much difference between the 3GS and Desire. Maybe the Desire is slightly faster.

The screen on the Desire however, is way better than the 3GS. The black on the Desire is real black. If you compare the colours from Desire to 3GS the Desire will win every time.

The interface on the Desire wins hands down compared to the 3GS. Iphone interface is plain boring now.

It's the media player quality where I am stuck. On my iphone, every single song has album art (1400+ songs) yet on the Desire only around 60% of tracks have album art. I know how to fix it but it's a painstaking task which I don't really have the time to do..

I also wish the Desire would list the Alphabet in each list in the media player so you can just click on a letter rather than having to first scroll a little bit and then touch the slider.

The Desire sound quality is good providing you are using decent headphones. If it was louder, I'm sure it could complete with headphones to the iphone. However the loud speaker is crap. Not much more can said about that. That isn't a deal breaker for me.

Apps, face it apple has heaps and heaps (alot are crap). But for me, volume isn't the issue. It's quality. I'm sure though give it time and the apps on the android market will get better so this isn't a huge issue either.

I'm going to wait until I can re-jail break my iphone and until the Desire is 'rooted' so I can can get the best out of both devices and then make a decision.
[Desire General] micks_address:
For album art - try the '3' music player from the market.. its pretty neat and will cycle through your albums and download album art for them..

very handy feature.. i dont think it embeds the art in the ID3 tags.. but it displays the art fine..

Hey everyone. im from the Hero CDMA forum. i have made audio fix patches for the hero that fixed the audio loss for 2.1 roms.

I recently ended development for the audio fixes because the issue began to rise in people with stock heros. but with that aside, i will create a fix for eris users if enough of you have the problem. i believe i have seen 7-8 people with it. anyways leave a comment telling me you have the issue, when it happened, what roms cause it, and what your software builds are, and what roms dont cause the issue. thanks for the cooperation and i hope i can help :cool:

Hey Avalaunchmods!

Thanks for the help with this! I am running the Aloysius (Coincidentally a Hero port):

Audio usually cuts out for me when I am receiving a notification. It will kind of stutter/jitter and then continue to play.

I get the same using VanillaDroid ROM.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K0CAW:
Thanks for the help!

I have had this problem pop up intermittently, but with increasing regularity (up to 2-3 times daily at its worst). The sound profile and volumes remain unchanged, but sometimes for no apparent reason, all audio drops. If I get a call, there is no ringer. If I get a notification, there is no audible alert. If I place/answer a call, the earpiece/speakerphone are silent, and the other party doesn't hear me. The rest of the phone's functions still work, and vibrate still works, but there is no audio from any apps or OS functions until I reboot the phone.

As for particular triggers, I haven't found any yet. I had been running ivan's 0.8t2, but have downgraded to his older 0.5.4 to see if the problem is fixed. So far it hasn't popped up, but it's only been a few days.

Thanks again for your willingness to help. I'll be sure to let you know if I see the problem resurface.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marisa:
I've had audio issues, but the only thing that seems to cause it for me us getting a force close on any program that is currently playing audio, such as a music player or (worse) an alarm clock.

I've never had audio just randomly cut out on me, but it definitely all stops working after such a force close
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumi409:
I'm having the same audio issues. I'm currently on VanillaDroid v1.0. I experienced the issue on the eris21official-root ROM as well. It usually happens after I use the camera to snap a few pictures. If I don't use the camera, it is pretty stable. Let me know if you need any further information.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenestor:
Avalaunchmods,

Since the Droid Eris kernel code was made available from HTC, have you been able to make any further progress fixing the audio loss bug for the Eris and Hero?

Right now the only solution we know of is to replace the phone. (Those of us who have gotten warranty replacements have not had the problem resurface.)

But even if the problem is related to certain hardware, it seems like there might be a way to fix the kernel's *reaction* to the problem, so that the phone doesn't become unusable.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djiandunn:
i am having this issue as well, running Ivans Eris_Official 1.0 Alpha. Experienced this issue on the 0.82t also. No audio from the phone's earpiece (speakerphone wont work either) when a call comes in, or if i try to call them back. have to reset the phone and then it works. I'm running setcpu at 710 now, but i wasn't on 0.82t so probably not the culprit.

Audio Problem

I've had this problem every since the 2.1 update. My wife and I both had it (we both have a Eris) on unrooted phones. I rooted to ErisLightning and still had it, switched to Tainted Vanilla, and now I'm on Lightning Bolt. My wife is on Droid Does Pink and we've had the problem with every single rom. Sometimes when we receive or make calls, the phone will go completely mute. We can't hear the other person and they can't hear us. We can't hear a ring tone if calling someone either.

I use Google Voice and I sometimes get ghost voicemails. It will save the entire length of the voicemail, but it will be completely mute. Even if I restart and re-open GV it's still mute.

For now, we're just rebooting whenever we have this problem. Seems to be the only way to get audio back.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregor7777:
Same issues here; Using the most recent Senseable (3.1?).

The phone will work fine for days and then the will lose all audio functionality. Nothing though the headphones in my media player, no phone ring, can't hear people in call, no notification sound, etc.

A reboot fixes the issue. Still, very annoying as most of the time I don't know about it until someone calls and I have to reboot to call them back. :(

I've been on Froyo for a couple weeks and haven't lost sound yet [knock on wood].
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sjflowerhorn:
my sound only seems to go using FroYo as much as it sucks i thought i had the sound bug and unrooted and retried everything without the EngbootLoader and things are fine now not saying the ENGBootLoader has anything to do with it. But in sense based roms things are fine, i just gave up an 844mhx oOC'able devices because i thought it had the sound bug, so when my replacement comes in i bet its super slow stuck at 710 again =(
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dianeofarcadia:
Same here, I recently tried to do a clean sweep (factory reset/reinstall all apps using). Back to Senseable since I like the blue ;)

I am hoping that settles it down for awhile...

Found the silent call bug present in Plain Jane/original one, Ivans, and Senseable. Been using Senseable for the last month or so and was not having any troubles at all until recently. At this point, considering a replacement in the near future. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] curtis8523:
can i take a CDMA hero for GCI Wireless / Alaska Digitel and use the RUU to make it work on sprint? i just want to make sure before i get it that it works
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
i think the bootloader is different. pretty sure you will get an error running the ruu
[Hero CDMA Android Development] curtis8523:
is there a way to reprovision to make it work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknee:
You could have them check the bootloader version from fastboot (hold vol down when turning the phone on).

Version 1.41.0000 is the one that works with the 1.56 RUU.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
afaik this is the reason they don't have root yet.

all they would have to do is flash a sprint ruu, root, flash recovery, and then flash whatever rom they wanted. but the Alaskan Digital guys got root-patched. the bootloader is newer than ours. a few months ago they were trying to root and most all of the non-sprint hero's are rooted. all but alaskan digital.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
Thread

read this... it says on the first post it will mess with the pri i think it may turn it into a sprint phone. (the 2.1 ruu)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] curtis8523:
i have found that and looked it over. i just dont want to make it a paper weight and not have a phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
then your best bet will be to get it and run the 2.1 ruu and hope for the best.. lol.

(almost) anything that you do can be recovered. except a gsm radio flash. so don't flash any of those and you'll be fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
You need to have a goldcard setup but flashing Sprint's 2.1 RUU over any other carriers Hero will work so long as the bootloader is not newer. Currently, the Sprint 2.1 RUU that's floating around has the newest bootloader I know of so it will flash over anything at this point.

Just a warning though, you can't go back to another RUU after because everything else has an older bootloader. Which doesn't matter so much because the Sprint 2.1 RUU floating around is a dev rom and rooted so you can flash the custom recovery and go to whatever ROM you want.

EDIT: If you are not on Sprint and you use a Sprint RUU you DO have to program your carriers PRL after using QPST or CDMA Workshop

@curtis8523 I know I sent this to you via email already but I wanted to make sure it's searchable on XDA.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknee:
This is a good point. You could flash the 2.1 test RUU to get it to Sprint. If you want to run the 1.56 ruu you can flash everything 1.5 except the hboot by following the instructions here >> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=657086

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] doojer:

2) I pay good money for high speed internet, cellular phone service and satellite television. All three have failed me on more than one occasion.

3) I pay absolutely nothing for Google Voice and it has yet to fail me.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
Haha I wish I was having your luck with gvoice, it's been 24 hours and still not working at all.

So it's not Sprint_Core, I put it back on and my sprint vvm works fine but after removing everything, dialing *38 and starting from scratch to set gvoice back up from scratch, same deal. Gvoice just doesn't want to be my VVM provider :(

Oh well.

I am stuck using AT$T as my provider currently. I want another android phone. I have a Moto Droid for work and love it.

Since the backflip is a POS, what other phones can be brought over to AT&T and work with 3G? I saw the progress on the iPhone, but would really rather a physical keyboard.

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lineman78:
AT&T only has 2 android phones available. The Dell Aero and the Moto Backflip. The Backflip being the one with a hard keyboard. They have HTC listed on their android page, but who knows when/if that will happen. I think I remember reading that they made Bing the default search provider for the Backflip. I don't know AT&T's policy on bringing unlocked phones onto their network, but you could get the international version of the Hero or something similar. I just rooted my Sprint Hero with the Fresh 2.0d ROM and it is like having a new phone. Once all the Sprint bloatware was removed it runs twice as fast. Unfortunately, none of the unlocked android phones support AT&T 3G, so you will be stuck on 2G. For a hard keyboard, your only option is an unlocked Motorola Milestone(newegg is out of stock).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rx7freak:
www.google.com/phone
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PanzerGeist:
Or get a Rogers Dream or Motorola Milestone from eBay if you want a physical keyboard and 3G on AT&T. Then it's just a matter of unlocking and rooting.

Of course, you need to be careful with Rogers. They have "patched" their Dream in such a way as to require a JTAG to root.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lineman78:
I am pretty sure the Milestone does not support AT&T 3G, only T-Mobile. The unlocked Nexus will support AT&T 3G, except for the minor hardware design problem where if you hold the phone the right way you can block the 3G radio. (See youtube, search "Nexus One 3G Problem")

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PanzerGeist:
This is correct, it does support AT&T 3G.

There is also a Nexus 1 designed to work with AT&T's 3G... but of course if you want a physical keyboard, no luck there.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
When you're in an application which uses the keyboard (e.g. new sms), press the little up arrow at the bottom (next to the icon of the keyboard).

In the pop-up menu, you can choose which language you want.

Select "French" and you'll have an AZERTY layout :)

Note: xt9 will become french too...

Grtz,

Degake

edit: if you want to use the french azerty keyboard, but with dutch xt9, you'll have to change this registry value:
