Apple definitely have a big rival in Google and Android OS. I read last night, that Apple has 15% of the market share. That's in 3 years. Google now has 10% of the market share with Android. And that's in 2 years. Android is the way forward, and Apple need to be worried. Android gives a lot more user freedom. That is the reason I will never buy an iPhone. I want freedom. My next phone will be an HTC running Android.

The iPhone 4 isn't as innovative as everyone (including Apple) make it out to be. The hardware specs are good, but not as impressive as they could be.

there is so much stuff for win mo its unbeleivable anyone can say this, just check out the numerous winmo websites, Omarket, the market place hundreds of applications and most of them provide a varied and useful function. Unfortunately yes a large amount of them are not visually appealing because good graphics on win mo phone is more of a recent development, previously applications where designed to perform there task, not look nice while they are doing it. However the same cannot be said for the iPhone, the huge numbers of apps available for the iphone are often of shocking quality and the large majority are just far apps wobbly boobs apps or ****ty sound board/drum board apps. I do not disagree there are some incredibly useful apps available for the iphone, like the sky sports app available in the uk. But this is not outweighed by the huge volume of **** available, and the huge gaps that are in the apple app store because apple dont want you to make those apps.

Anything that is useful or practical that is available for the iPhone has a winmo version or is accessible via the web using winmo's ability to support flash.

There are a few decent 3d games for current win mo phones, to name a few xtracts and Electopia. But I do feel the games area of apps for win mo is lacking. However with software such as flashlite and ps1 emulators we have at our access a huge number of games that iphone users will never see, and those games have had a lot of work put into to them.
[HD2 General] Paschinski:
The new IPhone has a nice resolution, but the screen is way too small. I won't be getting it.
[HD2 General] s21s20:
Now you are just embarrassing yourself if you are quoting xtract and Electopia as decent games, I have them both and are crap, not exactly EA or Gameloft games now are they? Try Splinter Cell Conviction that is available on the iphone just to name one.
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
i like xtrakt very much but yes, u are right, im jealous when i see games like that new splinter cell or especially N.O.V.A. >.< I WANT THAT TOO, damn that game got even online function! and we got not a single multitouch game.. amazing, not? :/

My first smartphone was a audiovox smt5600. That phone Turned me on to a world I had been longing for.

I have owned a 2g iphone I have owned A g1 and played with A motorola droid(which I did fall inlove with).

I bought my hd2 with love.

This is what I will say about the iphone. Jailbreaking the iphone made it very unstable for "me" I had it replaced and the second one became unstable. I realize that it was the first version but imo a iphone is a iphone with small minor upgrades.

The g1 was a blast and got better when I rooted it . Id have small minor program crashes but nothing that was annoying . All features that I had been looking for were present In the g1 without having to buy a new phone.

The Hd2 is the **** for me as I love to be able to watch video's on my phone.

The clarity of video from youtube had people jealous. I will say I miss widgets

Other than that Winmo can do everything I need it to do .

Over all I want choices and if I can not mod it I don't want it.

But I am not the average user and thats why I am here on xda.
[HD2 General] donwhann:
cant see me ever getting an iphone but i just hope the next phone i get doesnt become obselete as fast as my hd2 has.........thats not to say i dont like it though as i love it.
[HD2 General] j.gigola:
NEVER!!~!!!!

iPhone is The Worst phone ever! I am not an iPhone hater Because I have had one FOr more than 3 years!!!!! in iPhone you can only change the Wallpaper and not in the background!!!! And now steve Jobs thinks that he has done a really cool thing by putting a background wallpaper!!!!LOL!!!! HD2 is The Best phone eVER!!!!! (Got No Doubt!) :D
[HD2 General] friend'scatdied:
Post this in an iPhone forum, see what happens. ;)

I enjoyed my 3GS immensely, but grew bored of it. I also enjoy my HD2 but imagine I will also grow bored of it much more quickly. I will definitely be getting the iPhone 4 but only as a toy.
[HD2 General] karaern:
definitely agree for the hd2 and will never buy another wmo phone, probably never htc again. so iphone 4 can be good alternative. toy or not it does the everyday work!
[HD2 General] josemedina1983:
Why ppl keep putting this killer this killer that what does it matter. Iphone like every phone has their strong points and weak points like the hd2 and other phones. In my opinion I wouldnt mind having the iphone 4,the EVO,the nokia n8 all those phones look great and makes me want to buy them if I could afford speding so much money. Iphone look Nice new loook great display and big app store that dents your wallet lol. Evo looks like a great android device, and I dream about the nokia N8 great camera and i always liked s60. Im just a phone geek and i wouldnt mind having all these devices. I get bored of one OS no matter what it is or how much you can do with it
[HD2 General] maniep:
If you miss widgets, then install SPB Mobile Shell latest Version.

You will have so many widgets, you will not know what to do with them :eek:.

In my opinion, widgets are primitive.

Icons are much better for me.
[HD2 General] madindehead:
Because of one phone, you will never buy an HTC again. Do you realise, that HTC phones are some of the best in the world mate...

And when he said "HD2 is the **** for me". He means, it's the phone for him. Not a **** phone, it's THE ****. Different meaning mate.

LMFAO!!! Wow, how the hell someone could miss that?
[HD2 General] dotnetguyaz:
So, you mean to tell me that with all the various shells and tweaks that WinMo still isn't working for you? Perhaps you rushed into your decision to get a WinMo phone then.
[HD2 General] hazard99:
been there done that . I even tried maxsense. I don't like the basic win mo look that you have to see when you access something

case in point sms app. win mo looks terrible.

as far as widgets go I want today screen notification not just little icons to accesd the app.

sorry for sloppy response. At work :)
[HD2 General] dotnetguyaz:
Hmmm, I have yet to see almost anything (sms included) that resembles WinMo. Sense UI and other skinning techniques takes care of that. As for today screen notifications, with CHT 1.8, you can have all the notifications that you want (sans twitter and facebook, which, imho, isn't a bad thing).
[HD2 General] hazard99:
when I recieve pictures the default sms app comes up id love to get rid of it. as far as cht 1.8 I love it but i don't know how to set up the notification for twitter or facebook.

if you wish to help you can message me
[HD2 General] cfds:
Well, interesting to read most of the post in this topic :rolleyes: ...

I have both an HD2 and an iPhone 3gs...the idea was to sell the iPhone but my HD2 has shown some basic weak area's...

For this reason I am using the iPhone while abroad due to the better GSM reception...while at home I use the HD2.

Every time I switch from the iPhone back to the HD2 I notice the better touch screen/keyboard responce of the iPhone. The touchscreen of the iPhone is more accurate...Those are the only 2 complaints from my side, both the HD2 and the 3GS are very stable! And yes I tried different radio roms, made no difference!

Get me the touchscreen and the radio from the iPhone in my HD2 and I will sell the apple straight away...

Will I buy the Iphone 4...nope, have seen and tasted enough of apple's total control mentality, I will not even mention my frustrations with iTunes...
[HD2 General] tiwas:
I think the new iPhone could potentially rape HD2. After all, it looks really gay! :D

And to the second question - no, I don't want ANYTHING that gay close to my crotch :p
[HD2 General] appoggio:
nice try, but epic fail.

:D
[HD2 General] appoggio:
One thing I don't understand is:

why, if you think that the HD2 is a piece of crap, you're stilly here? Why don't ya get the f**k out of this community and just shut the f**k up?

We don't give a s**t about what you think.
[HD2 General] bkar89:
it was the plan all along, i subscribe to a mobileme account so id really like to have that on my cell, and winmo is alot of work sometimes and short on commercial apps...

1, maybe both are really great phones

2, Yes i am... already secured one :) white 32gb

Im going to miss the screen realestate though

Didnt pay much for the HD2 (insurance claim) and i found it pretty dumb to buy a 3GS so late in its life span :)
[HD2 General] stoolzo:
i have to admit that the iphone is tempting but not at the silly prices we can expect, you are looking at paying at least £200 for 16b on a £35/m contract, I ended up getting my HD2 free on a £20/month contract.

What lets the hD2 down is the lack of 720p video which its hardware is more than capable of (winmo problem), any sort of TV out and the lack of music creation and control software + plus thanks to MS its a dead platform. It should also be noted that the iphone and the ipad are fast becoming a serious tools for musicians and less of a toy, something a winmo phone will never be.

A larger screen and HDMI out would have sold the Iphone for me as Jailbreaking would have given me all the functionality I would have needed.
[HD2 General] :
not going through 17 pages so if its been posted oh well

Iphone 4 screen smashed :)

http://gizmodo.com/5559977/first-broken-iphone-4-shows-new-glass-isnt-that-resistant
[HD2 General] chuck232:
Ever since Apple unleashed the attorney's office on them, Gizmodo seems to have it in for Apple... :)

I'm not sure why they expected the iPhone to survive multiple drops, when the description of the 'ultradurable' glass states only that it resists scratching more than previously. I don't doubt that at all. However, cracking and scratching resistance likely entail two completely different sorts of strength.
[HD2 General] curiousGeorge:
Lack of knowledge? XD

Your own ignorance must be bliss then. Go, run an ancient 3rd party app with improper colorspace handling and scaling, boatloads of skipped frames (say, on Transformers or any full-res high-bitrate AVC video), and lack of HW decoding support. Then don't complain about piss poor quality, skipped frames, wrong colors, strange scaling artifacts, or your battery being drained at insane rates.

Seriously. Someone had better sticky a thread about how worthless TCPMP and Coreplayer are on the HD2 from all of these standpoints. It's sickening how n00bs go around pushing this crapware as a "solution" to the delay. Good luck playing high profile 2mbps 448p AVC with correct HE-AAC on Coreplayer. Good luck having your phone last you through the day, too.

The iPod has supported native video playback PROPERLY since the iTouch 2G. Seriously. Maybe even before. The 3GS even decodes HD. That's 720p video playing natively on the device. Google it, people.
[HD2 General] stoolzo:
Personally I think you've picked the worst subject to compare the HD2 and the IPhone, Coreplayer and TCPMP and miles ahead of Apple in terms of multi codec and open platform support.
[HD2 General] engineer14:
All i can say is i love the fact iphone sells so well and is so popular. would i get one? HELL TO THE NO. iphone has helped change smartphones, remember in 07 when we all still pulled out our stylus to play with our hefty ass winmo devices.

Granted apart from the accelerometer, my att tilt still matched the 3gs.

and everything since the 2g has just been the same thing, and really apple IT TAKES YOU 3 PHONES TO GET VIDEO RECORDING? and x years to get copy and paste, which i have been doing on winmo since 2003.

I remember seeing the first iphone ads and thinking, my 4 year old phone can do this, they so gonna flop.
[Desire General] Jayflash:
I have had my desire since April now and only one flaw is really nagging me.

I have a daily alarm clock set to wake me up Monday through Friday and it's been working great for the first month or two, but recently it's refuses to dismiss. I slide down dismiss, and it looks like it's dismissed, but it keeps howling. Only way to dismiss is by shutting down the device.

I have not been noticing any changes since this started happening, and sometimes it works out fine.:confused:

If anyone have an idea of solving my issue it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks:)

Moving from windows mobile base to android, anyway knows that with help of activesync it is possible to use PC internet connection from device.

From what I've searched it is not possible in android, just the opposite is possible, meaning use device internet from PC.

Hi,

I was wondering if you found any solution for this. It is indeed abit annoying not to have this feature built in in Android.

[EVO 4G General] -viperboy-:
Hey guys, I have had the EVO since the Google I/O conference and this is the second time this has happened to me. The phone is in my pocket and starts to get warm, to the point where I'm like "why the hell is my pocket warm?" This happened before my phone was rooted and happened after. I'm assuming it is an app, but I don't know what causes it. I did perform a master reset on it both times after it started to get warm and that does resolve it.

Has anyone else had this happen to them?

maybe something is constantly streaming internet and you don't even know

maybe you accidentally left wifi tether on both times, i know my Hero gets hot when i run that for long periods of time.

just a suggestion.
[EVO 4G General] MrDSL:
My old Hermes use to do that sometimes. Havent ever noticed my EVO hot.
[EVO 4G General] -viperboy-:
Thanks guys, I know nothing is running at the time. I tried taskiller to correct the issue and it didn't help. It gets really hot and than the battery starts draining like crazy. I called HTC before the EVO launched and explained that to someone and he said that's a known issue but I have a feeling he was just saying that.
[EVO 4G General] andrew213:
I have had the HD, HD2 & now the Evo. Every HTC phone that I have had has done this. I have to say though, that I never experienced battery drain any more than usual with this. I'm not sure what causes it, but I think it is just a HTC thing.
[EVO 4G General] Kooper113:
My phone gets hot at times, but I know I have twitter updating and other stuff running in the background with Wifi and 3G connections at times, so perhaps that's the suspect.

Good for the winter time I suppose!

yea i jus got my EVO today and yea mine one is hot all the time.im using advanced task killer,turned off 4g,gps, and live wallpeper.also using launcer 2 with youtube widget auto update.my first android phone.
[EVO 4G General] notasimpleway:
If you are rooted, use AutoKiller or Auto Memory Manager. Don't use a task killer.
[EVO 4G General] RTessi:
I experienced that this weekend.

The only thing i correlated to it was that i had wifi on and was not in my 1 memorized wifi network?

it happened twice in a short period of time, but nothing that really concerned me. I'm more worried about the top half of my screen being unresponsive to touch for 5 to 20 seconds at a time randomyl throughout the day.

have you noticed any lackluster touchscreen response?

I've been running Windows Mobile (CE, PocketPC, etc) for years and have always used the complex appointments to schedule things like "Last wednesday of each month" and "2nd tuesday of November". I find that this capability is completely missing on WM6.5 on my HD2. Is there a way to re-enable it?

Marc
[HD2 General] dillschlappen:
Sorry, I can only write in german, but these appointments are still there on my HD2.
[HD2 General] Svegetto:
if you need the 'complex' repeat settings forappointments which are not provided via sense, simlply make the appointment via winmo calander (somewhere in your start menu, and if you can't find it there then look in the windows folder). This will give you all the complex settings. Alternatively you can also make the appointments in something like outlook or google calendar and sync it wih your phone.
[HD2 General] mknewman:
Thanks, I didn't even realize Outlook had that. Worked great.

Plus its company had a bankrupcy so even if i tried to donate it ,it'll be thrown back at my face :p ... guss what is it ?!

Its name is O2 Atom Life , i had Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 before but it died in front of my eyes :( so i went back to the mentioned device >_>
