[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
I agree with everyone else, Serious you really think your getting cheated out of 10$ when your really cheating your self.

The phone is worth it, rather its for 4G or just because it sucks data like a beast.

Your just simply cheating your self. think of the evo as a car, Its like buying a Class A car like a ferrari with a V12 engine. And wanting to take the cheap route and put the cheapest gas in your car. and then think your not messing up your fuel lines or engine in the car.

Sprint plans give you the most for the best price out there. as other say if you go to ATT you will be paying for every single thing. and your bound to be paying $120-$160 every single month for ATT, compared to sprint your paying $79.00 after taxes and sprint charges you only paying like $99-$110 a month.

I was on t-mobile before i came to sprint in 09 and i was paying $90-$150 for one line. and i was only getting unlimited txt and unlimted data, and data is $24 on t-mobile if your using a smartphone,
[EVO 4G General] IceCreaMan:
i understand both sides, simply the guy is saying why pay $10 more a month when he already has unlimited data on another phone. Just because it is an evo doesn't get you unlimited data + an additional evo unlimited data plan your just paying $10 extra for the coolness of the phone.

i can relate, i have unlimited data for my at&t tilt and it has been x, at&t said if you want an iphone + unlimited data you now need to play x + $15, i said uhh yeah that makes sense no thanks. i get no faster service, nothing additional other than a cooler phone to surf/access the internet.

i myself will still be getting the evo, but i understand the otherside of this coin.
[EVO 4G General] ScrapMaker:
problem is, the $10 is an UNLIMITED DATA FEE. Sprint currently doesn't have totally unlimited. It's set at 5GB, just loosely enforced.

Now, you are paying to have truly unlimited. If you happen to get 4G coverage, it's free.
[EVO 4G General] jeffla:
the fee is BS. I could care less how any of you justify the fee in your own mind. I see this as no different then if Comcast raised my rates if I got a new cable box that offered truly unlimited TV viewing when I don't consume that much tv in the 1st place.

I would rather save the $10.00 dollars and have a 5gb cap. At least give me the choice.
[EVO 4G General] cwbeasley:
You do have a choice: Don't buy the phone. Buy a different phone. Write a letter, walk to the post office and mail it. Get rid of Sprint as your carrier. Be a hero and start your own cell phone company. The choices are endless.

It's like putting a loaded gun to your head and then complaining because a bullet will come out, and you just want the thrill of pulling the trigger, not the bullet.
[EVO 4G General] engineer14:
EASY FIX

let me make this easy for everyone:

if you want the EVO, PAY $10 EXTRA MONTHLY

if you dont want to pay $10 extra, DONT GET THE EVO

if you want the EVO but do not want to pay $10 extra, GET THE EVO FULL PRICE, DO NOT ACTIVATE IT AND JUST USE IT AS A PDA.

if the next best cable company was more expensive than the new price you cable company wants to charge, your cable company could say the extra is for 'asymptotal regeneration of microbal tranionization micobials' and you will still pay the damn money.
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
What is up with the whinners lately?

Okay Sprint will drop the $10.00 in favor of the whinners. They will now just charge $79.99 for Unlimited 3G/4G on the EVO phones which will also include Unlimited Mobile-Mobile(Any Carrier), Unlimited Text, Visual VoiceMail, TeleNAV, 450 Anytime minutes to anyone in the US.

Please find me a better plan! If you can't ZIP IT!
[EVO 4G General] eldiablito004:
ATT milking iPhone fanboy $129.99 a month

Verizon milking fanboys unlimited plan $129.99 a month

Sprint unlimited plan with EVO = priceless

There are things money can't buy... for everything else.... there is a ***** slap from your Sprint friend near you....
[EVO 4G General] thecodemonk:
So...basically, you've revealed that it doesn't matter what any of us say, you will be upset regardless until Sprint bends to what you want. :) (Not trying to be a ****, just good know that there's no point in explaining how we see it since you've made up your mind about it).

Hi, if anyone could please help me i would be gratefull, i recently purchased a D2 but its already preloaded with WM6.5 rom version 2.53.405.5 (76952)WWE, But i really wanted WM6.1 as, among other things, i wanted to use the handwriting rec.

does anyone know what stock rom to reload? and where i can get it? sorry to ask such a basic question. :confused:

thanks in advance, :D

thanks for that, however it seems to have just bricked the phone :eek:

it seemed to work, all the correct messages displayed

but......

now all that happens is it turns on, shows the touch diamond2 screen, then resets :confused:

it has the following text in red in the lower left hand corner

r 3 . 43. 25 .19

g 61. 20t. 25. 10U

d 1. 39. 47382

does any one have any ideas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fighter7139:
Try to hard reset.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
tried that before i posted :(

and a soft reset, and another hard reset to be sure, :(

i searched the forum but couldn't find any reference to that type of error either.

any ideas on how to retrieve it from paperweight mode? :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdic:
Download stock ROM for your region

Unpack it with WinRar or TotalCMD

Rename RUU_signed.nbh to topaimg.nbh

Copy topaimg.nbh on your SD card

Enter bootloader (hold volume down and turn on phone) and follow instructions

edit:I guess for wm 6.1 you need lower version of SSPL
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
thanks dude, i used the bootloader to reinstall the latest rom from HTC.

Topaz_S2_HTC_WWE_2.53.405.5_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship

my phone is no longer a brick :) however i am back to square 1 in that i still have wm6.5, and i want 6.1 :(

ive tried to reflash with the older rom fighter7139 suggested

RUU_Topaz_HTC_WWE_1.39.405.3_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.20t.25.10_3.43.25.19_Ship

but it gives me the same rebooting error.

any ideas why wont the older rom work on my phone? or if theres an alternative to that rom ?

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
I've loaded hardspl 1.83 and extracted the file RUU_signed.nbh and renamed it to topaimg.nbhand,

i moved it to the SD card, reflashed the phone with the 6.1 rom,

but i get the same error.

any idea on what rom i should use to update from?

or what stock spl i'd need to run this rom's version of 6.1 ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
a thought

maybe i don't even need 6.1, :confused: all i want to do is to fix two things -

1) make the sms messaging work like on the old htc devices ie diamond or tytn ie not use htc messaging

2) add handwriting recognition

- would also be nice to have the taskmanger icon, the battery icon and the original windows start menu back too, but im not dependent on them....

so i guess any rom would do that allows these functions, any help or info on this would be much appriciated :)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
thanks for that, however that was the first thing i tried, i saw the download for the handwriting ap just after i got the phone, not knowing it didnt have it when i swapped from my diamond,

the thing is the update only works on certian AP version control builds -

the message on the site is -

Note: AP version control -> The criterion will pass if the Touch Input for Pocket is equal to Version 2.1 (Build1919.1320), or lower.

mines a higer version, which i assumed originally had to do with it being wm6.5 not 6.1,

- i have tried downloading and installing anyway but it wont load.

does anyone know how to get this update to load, or how to change the AP version control back to a lower version ?????

any help would be much appriciated.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:
if it matters,

i'm running Duttys HG, and ive flashed to hardspl,

i don't mind flashing back to whatever, i just really need the handwriting app :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
The handwriting SIP is likey hidden.

There is a reg edit to unhide, just search SIP Reg Edit and you should find it.

If I recall it was under the WM general tweaks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terminalkhaos:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNorthSideWhiteGuy:
Any luck finding a way to get 6.1 working on this phone? I just bought the Pure from AT&T as a replacement for my LG Incite that had 6.1 on it. So far I can't stand 6.5 at all. My main beef is with IE, I really like the one on my Incite vs. this one. And my other problem is with the start menu, I also prefer the drop-down style in 6.1.

Thanks for any replies or help.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Start here.

Once you unlock your phone, you can flash to anything you want.

6.5 is hands down better than 6.1, there are 6.5.219xx builds that have the drop down start menu.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNorthSideWhiteGuy:
Thanks Bruce!

For some reason I couldn't find a good Pure forum, so that link helps a lot.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Joe92T:
Just a quick question, has anyone else had problems using Handcent on there incredible? Everthing works like it should, the only problem is that the LED notifications dont work so i never know if i have a new text or not without waking up the phone, it dosent matter what color i change the LED notification too, it dosent work on any setting, just seeing if others experienced this as well
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] money226:
Make sure you have led notifications off for the regular messaging app and turned on for handcent. Thus should work, I've been using it on my Incredible since the day I got it.

-------------------------------------

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Joe92T:
dosent work... the stock messaging app has no settings for LED just sound and vibrate, and the stock messaging apps notifications in general are turned completely off, whereas handcents are on with LED blink checked and it does not work, ive tried every color and none work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] littleguevara:
My LED notifications work. The only thing that doesnt happen is the color change, no matter what color I set it to it just blinks green, but my stock messaging would blink as well so im not sure whats wrong with yours
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
I am seeing the exact same thing. Hoping we'll be able to change LED color after root, but if not...... I can live with that. :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ufvj217:
Yea while using handcent, mine only blinks green no matter what color i put it on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] KnightMAREcrow:
I really like the vanilla version of Android with nothing skinned or running on top like Sense UI or TouchWiz. Just wanted to get a sense of what prospective buyers think about it.

Edit: This might give the devs an idea of what people want on their phones, if given the choice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] TravUK:
From what I've seen of TouchWiz, am looking forward to it. Am kinda bored of Sense now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Cooki3s:
I actually like the customizable horizontal app list, even if its a copy of the iphone's menu.

The only thing I dislike about it is that you get the little square of colored background behind each application, instead of just black, it just feels wrong. Rest of the touchwiz looks ok.

Didn't try stock android yet (using HTC sense on Desire atm), but I presume you can use an alternative launcher to get it working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ramsey:
I really like stock, but Sense UI is even nicer sometimes but not always, I prefer the white in the Stock with the orange.

However, the dialer and contacts are nicest on Sense UI, especially the dialer, and also the Keyboard.

I really like what I have seen from TouchWiz so far and I am really looking forward to it, I like the additions they added and I prefer a lot more a horizontal menu over vertical where I get lost quickly in the Sense UI (on my magic).

TouchWiz looks well optimized, however I read that many Singaporeans are experiencing a bit of slow launch when launching applications but other than that it's very smooth they say. I even noticed in the videos it takes time to quit or open some applications. But it can be fixed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] KnightMAREcrow:
I must say i'm a bit shocked at the results so far, however few there are. In my experience with TouchWiz I've only had headaches. Again that is my personal experience.

When this phone goes out to the masses I'm sure there will be development to suit all our tastes. Looks like I'll be rooting for the CyanMod port lol.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ramsey:
Lenovo Lephone looks nice too >_>

hehe yeah not many have that.

Either way, are you going to sell N1 or keep it when you get the sammy?

I never tried Touchwiz btw, many said that before it was bad but in this new galaxy S it's much better and smoother... but arrg people are having problems in Singapore with cameras not launching lol "memory error" problems.. wow.. very sad..

Maybe that's the beginning of headaches?? such a powerful phone with a very nice camera, I hope it comes out optimized since they have until the 17th of June.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zkillers:
Not to mention,users are having major problems in syncing the phone to pc and especially on macs. That is one major issues considering that you have some 13gb of storage on the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] KnightMAREcrow:
If the Galaxy S comes to Tmobile I will try it out for a bit since I'm up for an upgrade, so I'll be selling either one when I find which i'll be happier with. hopefully it comes out to 200 on contract.

As a side note, the Motorola Extreme is looking very nice, just wish it wasn't on Verizon, expensive plans.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Pluto:
Its About the content :

Widgets + Icons = Sense UI

Gallery + Menu + Launcher = Vanilla Android

Music Player + Social = Sony's X10 UI

TouchWiz have nothing expect the gesture (if you slide a contact right you'll make a call , left to message) , i hope i get the option to turn it off like Sense ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dark Sector:
Touchwiz looks like a hybrid between iphone UI and android UI and what i liked about it is that it did toke the most notable advantages of both :)

and if you look closely at the UI you'll see that it's not just UI be it is packed media player and photo Gallary so it's a whole package :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] scotthubbard:
I've ordered this phone because the TouchWiz adjustments look minimal.

The only huge difference i can see is the program launcher and the docked bar.

Obviously other things are going to be slightly different but things that are already good in Android are still there, for example the Picture gallery is pure Nexus One.

As i see it TouchWiz just wanted to be Android from the start, a widget based homescreen interface, and because of that the Galaxy S just becomes Android with some improvements. And if thats not true then a flagship phone is bound to get some developers working so there are going to be options anyway!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] A_M:
In terms of the feature tweaks of TouchWiz (stuff like horizontal app launcher scroll, slide left/right on contacts to call/text, etc) I pretty much like everything Samsung's added/changed with TouchWiz. But in terms of pure aesthetics and graphical style, it is simply not nearly as polished as HTC's Sense or Vanilla Android.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mesaboogie:
hmm i'm considering getting this for as my first android phone but the touchwiz interface doesn't really appeal to me. I'd rather use the Sense and its widgets. Tried a htc desire and thought it was really nice
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] wzs2020:
I do not appreciate TouchWiz,it looks uncomfortable and not very convenient ！！！ that is my personal experience.A plain android is OK ！and I can use the launcher application to change the UI whenever I like！！but if anyone who can develop a UI which is more beautiful，I will have a try！！！
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nomedor:
Can't you install something like launcher pro to have an original like launcher?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ramsey:
Yes we can (according to users who have the phone and have tried to..)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] disclaimernotice:
It's funny how in the forums you always see people complaining about TW and yet the poll shows that it is favoured over sense.

Anyway, comparing the ICS roms and stock Samsung roms I've used, I do like many aspects of touchwiz, like the notifications controls and the custamizable app drawer.

As title...

I read someone was using 2G instead of 3G to save the power. But I can't find the place on my x10 to turn off 3G and leave 2G on.

Any one can point it out?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 General] Belazor:
Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode

WCDMA only = 3G Only (My setting)

GSM only = 2G Only

GSM / WCDMA preferred = 3G preferred, 2G if a 3G connection can't be established
[XPERIA X10 General] rynoon:
The way I do it is by going to my dialer and entering *#*#4636#*#* into it. After you enter that (don't push send) it will pop up with a menu. Select "Phone Information" and look for a dropdown labelled "Set preferred network type".

Mine has four options:

* WCDMA preferred (default)

* GSM only

* WCDMA only

* Unknown

I set it to GSM only to turn off 3g and use a 2g network.

Alternatively there are several apps in the market that claim to do this. The X10 seems to only give two options in its settings menu. 3g only or 3g preferred with a 2g fallback. At least that's how it is on my phone. Just those two options.
[XPERIA X10 General] FireROR:
I only have two options.

WCDMA only.

GSM/WCDMA preferred.

Rogers, Canada.

Thanks rynoon, that works... now it shows G instead of 3G..

:D
[XPERIA X10 General] Mano1982:
3 options here:

WCDMA only = 3G Only

GSM only = 2G Only

GSM / WCDMA preferred
[XPERIA X10 General] McKebapp:
There is a nice (free) Tool on the market:

"Show and Switch 2G/3G".

It brings you a shortcut to the dropdown menu.

Additionally I make use of: "Toggle Data Widget" to enable / disable data traffic easily by tapping it.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
It's a bit disappointing that the best the market has to offer is effectively a shortcut to a menu screen.. I'm not an Android programmer, but how hard can it be to make a widget that allows you to toggle between 2g, 3g and no g (!! wireless data off!).. surely can't be that hard?
[XPERIA X10 General] FireROR:
Doesn't work. All those software just show up the wireless setting. But the 2g/3g option doesn't show up in the regular X10 menu. Only rynoon's post works.

That may just apply rogers X10. Not sure other country.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
belazor's method works fine in the UK... that's how I've been managing my data settings for the last couple of months.
[XPERIA X10 General] Phantasm4489:
its completely impossible because android doesnt allow this.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
I must allow it.. because there is a menu option that allows you to manually do it.. what ever settings that is changing could be replicated in an app/ widget. Or is this only something that can be accessed at root level?
[XPERIA X10 General] Shiwantha:
Thanks for the tip, I was looking for this.

Im going to test it to find out what is the impact to the battery.

im no expert but from trial and error i know this is the main reason for battery drain.:rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] Phantasm4489:
I'm just going by what i've read everywhere. I guess it must only be available as root.
[XPERIA X10 General] WaiShingLee:
It's true. 2G will conserve battery life a little more. Radio in general consumes a lot of power. When I was abroad, I didn't want to roam so I turned off the radio completely and my X10 lasted 3 days without a recharge.
[XPERIA X10 General] treo750_nappy:
I been having this problem that there's data connection only on a 3g network only. Forcing my phone to gsm only disables all data connection.is this just me or is this intended?
[XPERIA X10 General] 4mynikka:
If you debrand the phone it wilk give you the option to use 2g only.
[XPERIA X10 General] Shiwantha:
There is a free application in the market called Network. It will give you all the options we discussed.

Yep, I use Network on my Rogers-branded X10, as Rogers has locked out the option of "GSM Only" from the network settings menu (they had done this on my old iPAQ as well). The app simply gives you direct access to the *#*#4636#*#* menu. Works great.
