[EVO 4G General] nyijedi:
I've had Android since it was released - first on a G1, and currently on my Droid. I've grown to love stock, vanilla Android. The EVO seems to be everything I want in a phone, but unfortunately, it also has SenseUI. And on top of that, from what I've seen, it's also going to come with some Sprint bloatware (i.e., Nascar app, NFL app, Sprint TV, etc.). These things have me very hesitant to get an EVO. I was wondering if there are any other hardcore Android users out there now who share my feelings, and I'm wondering what your plans may be. I guess I can cross my fingers and hope for a custom stock ROM to be released, but I don't really want to buy a phone, pay an ETF with Verizon, and take a chance on Sprint's coverage when I'm not even sure if this will be an option any time soon.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I will just throw this out there:

This phone has plenty of memory to handle the few bloatware apps (I have 265MB free with almost all of my apps from my Hero installed), and it is fast enough to handle Sense with ease. No. Lag. Calm your mind, grasshopper.

Oh, and even with Sense UI, you can disable the home launcher and use launcher2 if you MUST have that vanilla home.
[EVO 4G General] nyijedi:
Thanks for the input. I take it that you've used Sense before? It's nice to have the option to turn off Sense on the home screen, but what about native applications like Gmail, SMS, and the browser? Does Sense use the "stock" versions of these apps, or are you stuck with their own versions?
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I used Sense on the Hero, and I have the EVO now. I've only used an AOSP ROM for about 2 weeks on the Hero before 2.1 was working, so that's all the experience I've got there. I think HTC has their own messaging apps, but AFAIK, Gmail and the browser are the same (though I may be wrong, so one of you guys feel free to correct me). I also never really use the stock apps other than Gmail (I use Handcent and Dolphin Browser HD).
[EVO 4G General] Fadakar:
Stock's browser WAS different, sense added mutltitouch pinch to zoom before it was the standard. They might be the same now, they might still be different. Apps I know are different are messaging, contacts, dialer, camera, clock, calculator, gallery, and I think that's it. We'll be stuck with it until an AOSP rom comes out.
[EVO 4G General] catpunt:
I agree, I hate sense UI and would love vanilla AOSP on the Evo. I am using the stock launcher but beyond that, all the sense apps are still there. If you simply won't be happy without the vanilla experience then I personally recommend against the Evo until we have a solid custom AOSP rom which could take a long time.

Regarding unwanted apps, I think those will be pretty easy to remove as soon as we get root access
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Why do you guys get your panties in such a wad over non-AOSP apps? Your messaging app doesn't look the same as AOSP? OH NOES! Deal-breaker fo' sho'!

Is it really worth missing out on an awesmome phone because you don't like the appearance of a couple stock apps?
[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
Co-sign, People ask for to much and never happy.

If you hate sense that much then dont buy the evo. and wait for it to get a custom AOSP rom, or 2.2. then go find a store that has a evo(which would be hard to find since by time someone makes a rom all the stores would be sold out with no pre-order)
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
Finally I've found weird people like me that will get the EVO regardless of the stock appls and all that crap. The point is that we always gonna have black and white, good and bad, pretty and ugly, that's why we have this forum, so many phone companies and so many opinions about a single subject, a word of advice, if you don't like it, then don't eat it, as simple as that.
[EVO 4G General] TickLe MY eLMo:
Completely agree, me personally, i've never owned an android device, but i've used many throughout the past few years(almost all), and i really grew to love stock android myself, used to HATE sense UI and was going to ignore the **** out of this phone until a stock version came out. But, I gave it a chance, i looked in to it and tried it, and i've grown to like sense ui. Even when i didn't though, i pushed all my hate aside and saw what was an amazing device, sense ui doesn't really change a whole **** ton besides, mostly, aesthetics... There are a few functions added but honestly, it isn't like it totally changed android in to something completely different.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
For me: Sense adds Facebook sync. AOSP adds nothing close to that.
[EVO 4G General] nyijedi:
That's the question I'm asking myself. I don't know if it's worth it. I'm leaning towards getting the phone despite Sense....

Except it's not as simple as that when you're like me and you absolutely LOVE the hardware of the EVO, but are less than enthused about Sense. In no way am I bashing the phone or people who like Sense. I'm just not sure whether I'll be happy with the tradeoff.

What kind of facebook sync does Sense add that isn't in the AOSP? The AOSP has synced facebook friends with their profiles on your phone since Android 2.0.1 on the Droid, unless Sense does something extra that I'm not aware of.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I wasn't aware that Android 2.0+ synced contacts. Like I said, I had only used AOSP 1.6, and my biggest complaint was lack of Facebook sync.
[EVO 4G General] catpunt:
I love my Evo, don't get me wrong, but the OP specifically asked about AOSP on this device. Having used HTC Sense on Android a bunch, then AOSP on Android, I personally greatly prefer the latter. Also the AOSP apps are hands down faster than the Sense apps. However Sense apps on the Evo are way faster than AOSP apps on the Hero, so it's still a winner for me. Now, AOSP apps on the Evo would be ridiculously fast! Here's hoping :)
[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
if your on 2.0+ AOSP, facebook syncs via the facebook app that you download via market. (correct me if im wrong people)

on 2.0+ with sense you get HTC own facebook sync. which i think is better then the AOSP one.
[EVO 4G General] chuckhriczko:
Ok. Here's my 2 cents. I have been with Android from the beginning. Actually I started on the Dream with Android 1.1 but still. I remember the first Sapphire build to the first Sense build ever flashed on our devices from haykuro. I have seen it all. In my personal opinion Sense is unnecessarily taking too much memory. I just come from the Cyanogen camp where speed is everything. That said, Sense runs great on the Evo. It's bearable, unlike with the Hero. That said I will still take AOSP over Sense any day.

It wasn't intented that way, but just seemed to happen. I showed these to an iphone user and he laughed...since he totally sweats my phone. Apparently the mega largeness of the screen makes people in awe.

Not a silly thread. I think its really great that we can all share our thoughts and humor, and gives us a break from threads that consist of only "this not working", "that not working", "regret the HD2" etc etc......:D

Did you here?

Honestly, the beautiful thing about android is....if you don't see something you like, you can do it yourself! :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killacammiami:
thanks i went there but theres crappy things under the 1.5 title .... the others say there for 2.1 ... i cant use those with 1.5 right??? i search and maybe i dont know the correct terms but wats 1.0 ? is that refering to 1.5 themes?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tejasrichard:
Sorry bro, I don't know what to tell you. I've been using 2.1 since the first leak hit. I haven't kept up with 1.5 at all. But like I said, the beauty of android is being able to do it yourself! Try downloading one of the themes you DID find, ripping into it and seeing what makes it tick....then changing it to suit your wants and needs!

EDIT: And sorry, no, the themes under the 2.1 title won't work on 1.5.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killacammiami:
still no luck :( i dont use 2.1 cus the audio problem ... and i cant find zero 1.5 theme
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ionizer12:
Is there a windows mobile app that can access and view cctv systems? The camera system in my business puts out a wifi signal that shows up on my Fuze, and I was wondering if there was a program that can use this signal and be able to view it on my fuze. This would be very helpful in watching my store while im on the move and not in the office. Thanks

I am looking for an app or cab that allows you to keep score of a baseball game; including at bats and averages. Is there anything out there. i need something similar to the what the iphone has.
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
Is it normal for the button lights to be slightly lit when the phone is on standby? I can see its application, as it's nice to see buttons in the dark...but...is it normal?
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
So...by your complete silence, I am gettigng the idea that everyone's lights (send, home, windows, back and end keys) stay on?
[HD2 General] dashrink:
This is not normal!

You must have installed something that is keeping the backlight lit.

My keypad light stays on for about 30 secs...
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
Lol...i know...but no one has commented as of yet...guess I'll reflash and see what happens...
[HD2 General] yelitterulez:
I presume your're using a cooked rom? If so, go into \Windows\Startup and check and see if there's a LED Keyboard BACKLIGHT (or something like that) file in it. Delete that file.

Let me know how it goes.:cool:
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
Nope...reflashed Energy ROM and same issue. I checked out the windows folder mentioned above and ilock, cleartemp and lockdevice are the only programs listed...could it just be energy? I asked.in the rom thread, but no responses...
[HD2 General] ephestione:
usually depends from "keypaledcontrol.exe" file or on those lines.

Wherever it may be, it still resides in memory and keeps your key leds on until you put phone on standby.

Checking running processes in advancedtaskmanager should help you idenitify the file and delete it.
[HD2 General] yelitterulez:
thats true. telegraph0000, maybe scanning your phone using resco explorer or some sort can help find the file.Have you looked under \windows\program files?

Sorry couldn't be more of help to you.
[HD2 General] telegraph0000:
wow...I have reflashed the phone 4 times, and still the same issue with the 5 buttons never going off (unless I completely shut off the phone)....
[General Questions and Answers] petejm37:
I cannot find a gps widget for SPB mobile shell anywhere. Surely someone could develop a simple widget which will give you your coordinates (lat. and long.) right on your SPB home screen. The capability to save and label coordinates would also be nice. Further ability to mark these points on a map to save within program would be extremely beneficial for a variety of uses. Chance for revolutionary concept here.:rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] stephj:
Not quite a widget, but if somebody wants to start with this and they know how to shoe-horn it into your SPB shell, here it is:

A cheap and cheerful C++ Win32 application that digs the main GPS data out of the GPS API, and slaps it straight on the screen. Updates every 5 seconds.

Included is the main C++ program that does it, (the Latlong.txt file). The Timer function at the bottom of the program does all the hard work.

Another version of this program converts the Latitude and Longitude to OSGB38 Eastings and Northings, but outside the UK these values are useless.

A quick word of warning: - While this program is running, it is reading from the GPS COM port, which by doing so, activates the GPS circuitry. Unless you have set the [X] button to terminate the program, it will still be running in the background with its inherent drain on the battery. You will have to kill it with Task Manager or Settings-> System->Memory->Running Programs, to shut down the GPS chip.

I don't know much about calendar and syncing it, but a friend is settings his bosses phone up with a second Google account (first/main account on phone is personal), and wants both accounts to sync with the calendar on the phone.

When I went to add and sync another account, calendar was not an option, so is it possible, and if so how?

Thanks so much

So I was over at pocketnow.com and saw the extended battery and its cover has an awesome kickstand. Also, the Evo 4G has a kick stand. Is there one for the HD2 that is not fat but has a kick stand? That would be super cool.
[HD2 Accessories] Purple Drama Llama:
Buy the T-Mobile body glove case. Has a kickstand. Check out my thread where i'm desperate to find a case lol.:D

I bought that one from the T-Mobile too. it is lil' fat but I like it, better than the case that came with the phone.
[HD2 Accessories] Metallic-Force:
I got the same case, worth the 20$, since the plastic is a lil sturdier than the cases i buy off ebay

I'm really interested in extended battery kickstand but without the bulk. Is there a battery cover replacement that has a built in kick stand?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buck Shot:
Im running Froyo, rooted Amon-RA 1.7. I use the Power Manager app set with profiles. USB and AC adapters brightness is set high when plugged in and battery is set low for obvious reasons. Now when I plug in the brightness goes up and it displays i.e. AC adapter profile or whatever... when I unplug, it displays "battery profile set" but the brightness is all the way up still. I have to manually press the power strip brightness button until it is off, then open power manager app and select battery mode and then it works fine. From my knowledge the app has not been updated but it is working in every other department.

This is the only bug I have noticed for me. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this.

Sorry Mods if posting in the wrong place. just a question......

I've Hard SPL'd my T-Mo Wing and have been trying different ROMS, problem is a couple of them after downloading are listed as a "file", for example: WP7_RUU 1st. It's not a zip file, 7z, rar, .nbh or anything else that I can unzip or open or xfer to the update utility to flash.

I've already flashed 4-5 ROMs already with no problems. I also know in some cases you can "change the file type". Is this an SD install file ? Bad download ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Can someone steer me in the right direction ? Thanks....
[XPERIA X10 General] Bikram:
Since I got my Xperia X10, I have been following xda forum quiet regularly. I started to notice a trend in the posts of Xperia X10 threads. This trend is commonly known as Kubler-Ross model or "5 stages of grief".

1st Stage: Denial- "No we have Multitouch..........it just needs to be rooted"

2nd Stage: Anger- "F** SE, A**h**e SE, I will never buy their products etc...."

3rd Stage: Bargaining- "OK if Paul starts working on it then we can have the root"

4th Stage: Depression- "I will not be fooled by SE again, going to HTC next time...." or "Iphone has a good operating system"

5th Stage: Aceptance-"Well it does what the box says......"

I am currently between 3 and 4, but there are lots of ppl in stage 2. And they are cursing each other in Android Developement thread. I am not sure how much developement has been done but I can see very well the stages of grief going on. This is becoming a serious issue now :p

I think the dev should just stop whatever they are doing and make an app, which just say "Everything is OK, it's JUST a phone".

Non devs please state your stage of grief. Only by consulting and more discussing about your stage of grief, will make you feel better. So please write your stage and how many time you click on refresh and how is this effecting your life :P
