Well, after seeing Reviews for the HD-Mini, it's actually a terrible device. Plus, the HVGA Resolution is like a black-sheep... Almost NO Apps work with the Resolution.

If you want a decent phone, with all of the traits you listed above, I'd recommend either a Touch Diamond 2 or a First Edition Touch Diamond.

The specs are almost 100% the same, but the Touch Diamond actually has slightly better performance & battery life than it's successor (Touch Diamond 2).

The same thing can be said about the Touch Pro and the Touch Pro 2.
[General Questions and Answers] arash64a:
wich one is best in software support ?

OMNIA2 or DAIMOND2
[General Questions and Answers] Aegishua:
I'd actually recommend you get a HTC HD2 since you want something thats got a good touchscreen, powerful CPU/Lost of RAM, Good Battery Life & Software Support.

The HD2 has all of that AND has an enormous screen.. and to support this it has a 1GHz Snapdragon processor (CPU), 448mb of RAM and 5 hours of battery life.

My friend actually bought one and i fiddled around with it and i was absolutely blown away by how responsive his touchscreen was.. i think its a capacitive screen relative to what im used to which (Resistive). It also has multitouch capabilities lol.
[General Questions and Answers] Badwolve1:
Maybe a HTC Desire if you are intrested in android (3.7 inch) or an X10 xperia
[General Questions and Answers] galaxys:
Stick with HTC devices like the Diamond2 or the Desire depending on your needs.
[General Questions and Answers] arash64a:
which one have more app ?

OMNIA2 or DAIMOND2
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
Honestly, the Diamond 2.

I have the following problem with my HTC Rhodium. Here is the description, I hope someone will be able to help me

- I have installed a ROM with a beta version which has just expired (I did not realized it was due to expire when I Installed it)

- I am trying to install another ROM but I cannot astablish an Activesync connection. I guess this is because the software has expired.

- So I cannot install the ROM and I cannot access the software.

Any hint?

I believe there's a newer version of Google Maps available in Market than the one installed on my Xperia. It has voice search features and navigation based on this. I see it on the Google Maps home-page and on my buddy's Nexus One. Very cool. But on my Xperia neither of these are available? And I've installed the latest update available for me on Market. Am I being exceptionally dim here? Can anyone tell me what to do...? :confused:

Yeah i couldn't figure out the voice thing either, it works on my win mobile 6.5, nothing in the labs section about voice.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] McHan:
Yeah, 4.1.1 (#4156) is what I have on the X10 as is. In Labs there's no mention of "Navigation" or "Search by voice", though. Downloading and installing the .apk from mediafire didn't work either. Got a "Sorry! The application ES File Explorer (process com.estrongs.android.pop) has stopped unexpectedly."

For those having hard time with navigation follow these step.

On Home screen click to add shorcut and select Directions & Navigation.:D
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] McHan:
Yep! That was a way to get Navigation going on my phone. Doesn't work though :mad:. Comes back with a "No route found" and then exits Navigation, irrespective of where I want to go or where I am to start with (in Stockholm, thatis). So far as I can tell I can't trigger this beta directly from Maps though, it needs to be from this shortcut...?

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] im_iceman:
ok.. I have 4.1.1 too.. (i'm in the UK).. I "Launched" navigation by going into Maps and the then selecting "Directions" from the menu.. once you've keyed in the start and end points and clicked on "go" it brings up the directions and then gives you the "Navigation" option at the top of the list, immediately below "show on map"...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jeffgarret:
This is by no means to insinuate that I am ungrateful to those working so hard on Android on the TP2.:) But here is the question that I have.

If sound is not working on the TP2 within a relatively short amount of time given the lifespan of phones and attention span of users will it really matter if the UI is not choppy or the battery charge indicator is working perfectly?

Will you adopt android as your chief OS if develoment stops without sound working?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] eghoti1:
For me, ringtones and music aren't critical, I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time. GPS is more critical. So I guess that would be a "No" in this poll.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] MooGoo:
Sound is not critical, even on WinMo I rarely use it.

The biggest issue for me currently is the very low in-call speaker volume. After that, speakerphone functionality, then power managment and charging.

Working hardware 3d acceleration would be a big plus as web browsing can be quite sluggish on Android.

If and when these issues are solved, I would be happy to use Android full time on my Rhodium. Though I am still perfectly content with WinMo, it's just nice to have options.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cashless:
GPS is the feature that I miss the most.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] huggs:
+1 on the in-call spkr. Vol.- I wouldn't mind only bein able to use the spkrphone, as long as it was loud enough to hear

Wep wifi would be awfully nice for me too

But sound does rank right up there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] jeffgarret:
Sound is a big deal to me as I use it all of the time. Visual Voice Mail is the the killer app and I have figured out how to load and activate it in android but obviously cannot hear it, so its useless.

Plus a ringtone is a nice thing for a phone to have.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] stab244:
It would be nice since it would allow my friend to hear the one Google Voice voicemail that he's been bugging me about for so long to hear. Not that it matters. I would rather use WM for listening to music anyways. Maybe once the Android builds are faster I might consider it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Sound would be really nice to have, especially since I recently found a tone dialer/red box/blue box app to play with, but it's not completely necessary for me to use the OS. The biggest issues for me are the overall UI lag and short battery life. From what I understand from reading the IRC logs, the developers may know why the sound isn't working now, but it probably won't be a simple fix. Also, AFAIK many of the developers are busy with their lives right now, so now likely isn't the time we're going to be getting sound. I can wait, though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rakkk:
For me - Sound is not important at all. I would like to have GPS first, HW3d, Camera then sound.

I suggest that instead of polling on sound only, maybe we should pull on the order, or the feature people wanted the most...

i got an entire day from 9am to midnight running video for over an hour and using the phone througout the day. the battery seems to die faster at first but that last 50% is a real stayer. i had to try very hard to make it die and i wasn;t able to do so before midnight.

it's a good idea to clock down to save power but i am not sure how much it would save and if it is really worth it.

[General Questions and Answers] barryfell:
My Touch HD developed a fault with what appeared to me, after reading similar reports here, a problem with the digitiser. The touch screen would work fine until I locked it, and then after unlocking the bottom third would be out of alignment by between 5-10mm. This could be fixed by realigning but the problem would return after locking the phone.

It is still under warranty (it's 12 months old), so I sent it back to HTC for repair. They replied to say the fault is caused by damage and wasn't covered by warranty.

This was the quote for repair (£):

Level 3 - MB+LCD replacement 193.29

Level 4 - Average Repair 23.07

Level 5 - Full Plastic Refurbishment 19.74

Labour 24.00

Delivery 8.64

VAT 47.03

Total 315.77

I got back to them to ask what the damage was and they stated:

"customer abuse IW ( liquid damaged) : Replace MB , LCD and Full refurbishment."

Never has my phone at any time been in contact with water. It was returned to them by their courier so surely wouldn't have undergone any water damage in transit as couriers put them in waterproof bags so I'm objecting to their claim and want to take it further.

Does anyone have any experience of HTC service centres making false claims or any advice they can give me?

also if there is tethering does it mask it from my carrier(bell)? similar to NFSFANs WM roms

id prefer usb tethering over bluetooth but at this point either could suffice

I am not aware of being able to Flash Android to NAND and then run a "Haret" that will allow you to boot into windows.

I've been running Android 100% since January. The only WinMo thing I miss is the camera quality. Other than that, Android rocks!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mslisaj:
I have a Sprint CDMA Hero. It is three months old with 1.50 firmware. The phone works perfectly but I hate all the junk "bloatware" that is installed and I can't get rid of. I have been doing a lot of reading on this subject and I may be getting close to taking the plunge. But I have some questions that in my research I haven't found the answers.

I wanted to state my goal of rooting. This device in its stock form with the 1.5 firmware works perfect for me. I'm not interested in putting new roms on unless its the Sprint upgrade. But I do want control of this computer like I have of my pc at home. So looking at Fresh Kitchen looks like what I want.

So my main question is this....... Can I install Fresh Kitchen and recover out of that my Hero just like it is now? Minus the offending bloatware Sprint was so kind to force on me.

Will all the apps that I don't remove still be there including all the market programs I have d

ownloaded and installed?

Will I still be running my stock firmware with the modifications I want to make?

What are the chances of rendering tis phone useless through this process?

If I didn't like Kitchen could I go back to a locked up bloatware phone?

How important is a running copy of HTCSync on your pc to this process. I use COMPANIONLINK and Pocket Mirror to handle data transfers. When I tried to install the HTCSync I got two Microsoft errors in the process but I seemed to move past them but never finished the install. Will this be an issue?

And finally, as I understand this process you download the necessary files on your pc first. Then you. Do a special backup of the phone. Then you flash Kitchen and then you recover to your backup and go like nothing happened.........

Am I at all close to reality here?

Thanks so much for your help and comments.....

Hi all,

I've been having major issues with my HD2 ever since i got it. Whats been happening is i get lag quite a lot causing the handset to lock up and i have to leave it alone for about 30 seconds before it returns to normal.

Today i managed to find what i believe is causing the problem. It all seems to stem from using opera, as today i noticed that after i closed opera the task manager indicated that opera application wasn't running but the process opera9.exe was still running. Whilst it was running it was sat between 90-99% cpu usage and if i tried to use the phone for anything i got major lag. After about 30 seconds the opera process would end and the phone would return to normal.

Phone Details

Opera - 9.7 Build 35627

Rom - 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE

Manila - 2.5.19211619.0

I have seen roms with a later build of opera for example

Dutty Opera_Browser_9_70_35989_0 - Dutty ML V3 1.77 EN||1.72 V2.8 SV|DE|FR|NL|IT|ES|PT|DA|NO|5.2.21901

If it's 0 make it 1 and soft reset.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] PugLord:
Just checked and it was already set to 1.

Because I've had this issue before I did a hard reset and left it standard with the exception of moving the opera cache location to the storage card. I have just reset that back to default and things seem to behaving. Could the size of the cache folder cause problems?

I'll try moving it back to the storage card and see if it starts doing it again.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] snowblind2142:
Just an Idea, is your opera cache set to your sd card or memory?

I had this, if i had it set to phone memory and tried to open a file (eg video) and not save it it would kill my phone.

Hope it helps :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] PugLord:
OK guys i've found the root cause of the problem when i get with lag for about 30 seconds after closing opera.

Its the size of the cache directory and location. (works fine when on device)

What i did was delete the cache directory on my memory card and over the day did some browsing. I kept checking the size of the cache folder and as i got towards 3Mb things started to slow down after i closed opera. I checked in the task manager and the opera9.exe remained running for about 20-30 seconds during which time if i tried to do anything i got major lag issues.

I then renamed the opera9 cache directory and started opera and all was back to normal.

I then renamed the cache directory back and the lag started again.

Currently my cache directory is 3.98Mb.......does any one else experience this?

I'm just about to try another memory card (2Gb) to see if its down to the card..............also can you limit the size of the cache directory anywhere as i cannot be bothered to keep going into the setting and clearing out the cache directory............and yes i know there are programs like cleartemp which can do this for me but i just dont like keep adding apps for the sake of it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tzuyang:
