You talk like as htc does care.. well, for your information htc doesn't really care. just if you look back in past you'll see. yes, i'm a dissapointed htc hero user cos their lack of interest in this device (they announced an update for hero last year in december if i'm not wrong... nothing we received). before hero i had a touch pro. the most expensive piece of **** i bought. laggy, full of bugs & so on.

let's not generalize that samsung is crap.. maybe you've got a faulty device. i've seen on forums many omnia happy users.

ah.. and i cannot comment the part of your phone in service.. maybe got lost somewhere.. hmm :confused:

abc27 if Samsung Galaxy S is top notch in reality i doubt it will be unsuccessfull. let's wait and see

grr, if the galaxy s had an trackball :(

competition is realy good in Android world. i'm sick and tired of htc monopoly
[Desire General] abc27:
Samsung make great TVs but sadly that's pretty much all they're good at making. It doesn't matter if you have a superphone with a 3GHz quad core processor and dual graphics cards. If it's not a popular CPU/GPU platform then nothing will be developed to use that power and nothing will be optimized for it.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Sorry, but this is incorrect.

Both the Snapdragon processor (Qualcomm) in the Desire, and the OMAP processor (TI) in the iPhone/Droid have integrated GPUs as part of the SoC (system on a chip).

However, the PowerVR GPU in the TI processor is more capable than the Imageon GPU in the Qualcomm.

Before I bought the Desire, I knew that it wont do better in games then IPhone but then again I have a PSP for mobile gaming which is better then IPhone. If I really wanted touchscreen games I would just buy a DS.
[Desire General] abc27:
Sony (NOT SONY ERICSSON) are apparently planning on releasing a PSP phone sometime late 2010 or early 2011 from a few unconfirmed reports. That sounds like it would be a beast of a phone. I'd imagine Sony would just have the PSP OS running alongside Android or maybe they're developing a proprietary OS that runs PSP games as well as functions as a phone.
[Desire General] DSF:
Games, in general, are using OpenGL which is standard. Qualcomm Snapdragon is similar to ARM Cortex A8: FPU, NEON etc. (see http://www.dspdesignline.com/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=204700527 )

So I'm sure that a game optimized for snapdragons will work (if not better) also on a powerVR/arm cortex a8 solution.
[Desire General] DSF:
Many cool games are available for Android and upcoming.

Unfortunately HTC is using the cheap SoC from qualcomm so due the poor GPU the games aren't running smothly.

You can see here a comparison of Gangstar West Coast Hustle

- Nexus One (same hardware as Desire)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOZtM6YK9zo

- Motorola Milestone

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUJwONg9UP0

As you can see the game runs way better in good old Motorola Milestone. And that's not the most powerful GPU on the mobile world.

And here you can see the Samsung Galaxy S in action:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ4N7QAlHd4

Clearly I will not get a HTC+Qualcomm SoC (this combination) again. GG competition.

+ Those phones are not affected of the multitouch bug that is present on so many HTC devices (and many htc devices are dual touch).

htc = cheap capacitive layer, cheap soc => expensive device. does it deserve this? actually they are smart.. using cheap hardware and sell the device overpriced.

@abc27 actually HTC (also Apple on their iPhone) is using many components from Samsung, for eg: displays, ram modules... Samsung it's a top semiconductors company.. So Samsung is not a cheap company. But I have to agree, their software customizations are awful

[HD2 General] hase01:
Hi,

all of a sudden my HD2 has a severe problem with pocket Excel (V6.1). If I click on a xls file it takes 1,5 minutes to open the file list of all xls files and another 1.5 minutes to open the file. All the time the wheel is spinning. And closing is showing the same issue. I haven't done any installations the last days... Has anybody any idea? Word and powerpoint seem fine, also every other application I have used the last days.

I use the standard t-mobile ROM, no cooked ROM so far.

Help is appreciated, I need xls pretty often. Has anybody other applications in use to work with xls files, the app is not the best for HD2 anyway.

Regards Hase
[HD2 General] DrATty:
I use PlanMaker, part of SoftMaker Office.The current version isn't very finger-friendly and will not open .xlsx files, but a new version should arrive soon. There's a trial version.

I think your problem is because Pocket Excel is having to scan a lot of files into it's open file dialogue. It can happen with large storage cards packed with data. There were alternative file 'explorers' for earlier decided, such as the one in SPB Pocket Plus but I can't say whether it works with WM6.5. Low memory can slow matters too.
[HD2 General] gillan:
I used to had this problem too. Don't know from were or what i came...:(

I couldn't solve it until hard reset.

My files are stored in main memory not on SD card.

Because I need excel really often I can tell you how scary I always get when I install any new software...:o
[HD2 General] kerm:
on the note of excell, does anyone know how to see images on excell?
[HD2 General] DrATty:
Caution when trying something new is sensible. It's best to make a backup before you install anything new. I use Sprite and SPB Backup is popular in these forums.

I've used SoftMaker Office for years and haven't had any major problems with it, and I've tested some of the Betas. I'd install it to a Storage Card as it's quite a size. Installing is slightly odd. You need to connect via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Centre and then run the installer.
[HD2 General] hase01:
Thanks for replying!

I think I will change either to SoftMaker rsp. PlanMaker (much more functionality than excel, could be more finger friendly- mainly for scrolling) or Documents to go (smaler and faster and cheaper, less functions, same finger-friendly issues).

After your hard reset: Did the problem come back? Did you install a backup without recreating the issue? Was this the latest backup or one from "before the issue"

When I have some spare time I will try to reinstall either pxl 2007 oder pxl 2010 (I think there are some Betas around)
[HD2 General] gillan:
...oh sh*t guys...

Now I've spoken about the problem... ...AND? Here it is...:(

Not always, but sometimes... I'm close to another hard reset...

@hase01

No, after hard reset everything ran fine...

...until someday... don't know when... means after which software installation... I think after Advanced Home Tab installation.. ..'cause this was my last install.

Softmaker? Year, I hardly wait for version 2010 for WM. Hope this will be released. Because Firefox gave up until WinPhone 7 is out. The only aspect for softmaker to release Planmaker anyways could be the fact that WM6 ist wide spreaded in business world. And WinPhone 7 seems to be for fun world...

Now Planmaker is a pain in the a** for quick finger taping. I've tried it out. Yes many good functions be nothing for my fingers on touch screen...

DTGo? I had problems with sync on PC. Lost formats. Not only colors,but column and row heights and widths and so on. And it's also not finger friendly.

Finally MS Office 2010 for WM could be a solution...

Backup?

Now I didn't backed it up. I never use backup to "install" an operating system new. Had too much trouble also on PC. I use Sktools backup. I do back up a good install for cases of memory or sd card crashes.
[HD2 General] hase01:
Any news from your side? Today I upgraded to office for WM 2010. No real change on th pxl issue, it's a bit faster now but still slow. Same for notes application (.pwi files). Word and ppt is fine, also for 2010. Same with OneNotemobile.

Hey everybody,

I was playing around with WL SkyDrive a bit today and was looking for a solution to access it on my Windows Phone. And since it's working fine in IE on WM 6.5.5 it should be possible to create a widget (cause it uses IE framework afaik) which can act like some sort of "SkyDrive" app.

Is there any similiar widget available / in development already? Haven't found anything yet, so I decided to ask.

Dear *** ********,

Dear ***, Thank you for contacting HTC. I understand that you would like to change the casing of your Desire phone into a silver colour. Unfortunately this is not option we currently offer to our Desire customers, the main reason is that the touch screen would also need to be removed and changed. Should you require any further assistance, don't hesitate to contact us again. Best regards Aurélie

Well, I did it. I got the HTC Incredible on Thursday. I cannot lie, thing this is fast. I will miss my hardware keyboard, but other than that i must say it is amazing.

What did it for me was I was finally able to get a sense build of android 2.1 working on the TP2. I was sold after that, looked at the incredible, specs, and gave it a shot, so far i am VERY HAPPY. The camera on this thing is amazing... Sorry if this was a rant, im not trying to put down the TP2 in anyway as the TP2 was an awesome phone for me for about 6 months lol.

I made the same move, and I couldn't be happier. I'm even getting used to the on-screen keyboard.

If you still have your TP2, go ahead and take it's battery and drop that in the Incredible. The TP2 has the same output but a slightly higher capacity.
