ADW for me!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomorrah:
Definitely ADW Launcher. Ive been using it for almost a month and its superior in every way imo. Would the updates to the launcher come through the DSUpdater? Cause AnderWeb updates that **** like every day..lol.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abcdfv:
It would seem to be unanimous. Can't wait for the update!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
id say at least if possible have options, adw launcher is ok, in my opinion launcherpro is better, but your da boss. I say regular launcher

Look how sexy that looks lol
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darchstar:
ok, lemme clarify, this poll is not what apk should i copy paste into my rom, rather what app i should develop with. Launcherpro isn't open source so the above poster's request is null and void. So far this poll seems pretty one sided for ADW, though i will continue this poll a day to get everybody who doesn't stay up until midnights' query.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
lol well then i still stand by continue to develop with reg launcher. Goodnight
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ska8erMush:
Just my opinion, but i really don't like any of the new launchers

i would like to keep the stock one, and if at all possible make the drawer the droid look (grey arrow)

i think it would be great to keep the stock one because you can always just install the launcher of your choice optionally by yourself

thanks!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coldheat1906:
I'm still a fan of the old launchers....... I guess I'm "Old School"..... :cool:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PikkonX:
My vote goes to ADW.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevinXtreme:
I voted ADW even though I use Launcherpro. If you can optimize ADW so it runs as fast as Launcherpro, I'd switch in a heartbeat.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkshow:
I like to run a lean system, and ADW has tons of features I'll never use. I'd like to see Launcher2 as the default.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blulitespecial:
regular launcher for me. sometimes i like to switch to the ADW, but its easy to just install or uninstall.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coldsweat:
I know the idea is to keep it pure AOSP, but I personally use ADW and think its next to perfect for my needs. I'd love to see it used in Darchdroid.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaybob413:
Choice of Launcher will always be a matter of personal (often religious) preference to the people who care the most about it. Launcher2 was the holy grail (for a while), and LauncherPro, HelixLauncher, ADW.Launcher, Tag Home, Zeam, etc. will all have their proponents (along with the yet to be released solutions).

My personal (selfish) opinion is that whatever makes it easier for the users of this ROM (like me) to leverage and integrate the development, themes and apps in use by the larger CM based ROM community, gives me the greatest benefit. So, to make a short story long, I would vote for staying in sync with the direction that cyanogen is moving in.

The religiously inclined will still have the ability to use their tool of choice (and continue to change), and the silent majority will continue to go with the flow and enjoy what evolves in the mainstream community at large.

Unfortunately, not every decision is as easy as "Cake or Death?" ;)

Well, its supposed to be easy anyway.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darchstar:
if you wanna get technical about it, ADWlauncher is actually the aosp launcher. It was a fork of Cyanogen's fork of the original Launcher.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feefeeboomboom:
ADW

i voted adw.

iv been using it for awhile with no fc, and no glitches.

at times it may be a little "slow".

with the last update of launcherpro (sucked) the choice is clear.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HottKarl:
I am a huge fan of ADW, and would love to see it as the default in your rom
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darchstar:
ok, so if no one else has an opinion on this, it seems as though adwlauncher is gunna be the launcher of development from here on out then. thanks for the input everyone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] soyy:
My H.boot is 1.33.0006

Radio 2.22.12961

32A

First time having it, i rooted it and then install amon recovery

went to [Rom][32a][32b][3.22] CyanogenMod 5.0.8-t1 Stable/Fast 2.1 (06/03/2010) and downloaded the black theme and put it on and flashed. Now its stuck on mytouch3g , anyway to get it out?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hellboy5000:
you bricked your phone dawg:eek:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] C0dy:
I don't think so. Have you tried booting into recovery and wiping data or going back to a Nandroid backup?
[EVO 4G General] ShawnN:
I live near San Jose and today I tested out the "trial" 4G network at the Cisco campus. I seemed to get a good signal but the results were disappointing - 1.5 Mbps downstream, 800 Kbps upstream.

Is anyone able to get better? Maybe the "trial" network at Cisco is just crappy??
[EVO 4G General] mysterioustko:
Here in Atlanta I'm getting download speeds of about 3megs. I believe that they are capping the speeds. I have a 4g usb dongle and that is the same speed I get on it. Once upon a time I used to get anywhere from 6-11megs using the dongle and it now only gets 3megs (just like my phone). I know there is no signal strength issue because the tower is on the roof of the building and I get a very good signal.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[EVO 4G General] jeffrimerman:
I got 2.2mbps, but no 4g. I was thinking it was 4g, but I shut the 4g button down and it's never said 4g and I still get 2.2mbps down and .32mbps up. I'm in Pasadena. I'm not sure what to make of that.
[EVO 4G General] gabemeyers:
I'm in a 4g coverage area and still cant get it to connect to 4g unless im at sprint or bestbuy... and even then 3g is still faster...
[EVO 4G General] bernechad:
Nothing against anybody, but I would kill for 3G where I live, let alone crappy 4G.

Be thankful for what you have, no matter how much you may think it sucks.
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
In the roswell/alpharetta area and I am getting about 4.7mbs works pretty well. Sprint tv needs improvement though :) otherwise very happy with new phone. Seems snappier than incredible phone I have too.
[EVO 4G General] mental26:
I'm in Dallas and I"m loving my 4.5ish download and 1.3 upload, you heard right. 1.3 upload. :D
[EVO 4G General] Routb3d:
pretty bAd

I'm getting 1 bar or less of 4g service at my house.. I live in tacoma wa. The 4g coverage map shows that I should have about the best service speed.. I just have to stand outside and down the block to get it. so much for pitching Comcast.
[EVO 4G General] EVOKeith:
Dallas, TX

I am currently north of Dallas and I get zero bars of 4G, though sometimes I see one bar light up. So far the most I have seen in a speed test is 1.6 mbps down and 223 kbps up.

I will test again when I am actually in the City of Dallas and see if it improves. Web is still quicker than any other phone I have owned.
[EVO 4G General] xtkxhom3r:
in san antonio tx i get about 1.8 down and 1.5 up lol.... and before the launch a friend used to get from 10-11 megs on his wireless card... i think since the phone is new the network is congested with ppl doing speed tests and downloading apps
[EVO 4G General] splicitysplat:
I'm also in roswell, however i'm not seeing speeds above 3mb
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
Are you getting close to the speeds of 3?
[EVO 4G General] mysterioustko:
I've tried running the speed test in the Roswell, Sandy Springs, Smyrna, Airport area, and McDonough and I still keep getting the same speeds nothing higher than 3.3 down. I consistently seem to get anywhere from 2.7-3.0:(
[EVO 4G General] oxeneers:
OP, I did a whole write up on the Bay Area 4G network - which in case you haven't noticed, is just for developer testing, NOT meant for EVO devices - over on my blog. Please read.

http://dylandersen.me/post/633300884/4g-in-the-bay-area-how-fast-is-it-really
[EVO 4G General] Antebios:
THIS NEEDS TO BE SETTLED! I think I have an objective view.

I'm in Houston, TX so we have 4G coverage with ClearWire. I got my EVO yesterday, along with everybody else. I went to Best Buy to look at some accessories, while I was there I was chatting with the ClearWire rep running the demo and trying to sign up new customers. He was inside with store with his Clearwire USB dongle and laptop. We decided to run some speed comparisons, so I downloaded 2 speedtest apps from the Android market, one of them being for Speedtest.net. The best speed I got on my EVO with 4G enabled (and 1 bar of 4g) was about 2.25 Mbit down, and 1.1 Mbit up. I ran this test multiple times with me standing next to him, then putting my EVO next to the USB dongle to make sure I was getting the same signal. The rep's laptop, again running the speedtest from Speedtest.net and us using the the SAME servers, he got at least 6 Mbit down and almost 2 Mbit up. The best he got that I saw was like 7.2 Mbit down. He said that earlier that day he got as high as 10 Mbit down.

This is just telling me that it's either the processor that is limiting the speed, or it's the 4G antenna in the EVO. I saw that his 4G signal was pretty good being a bit outside the city, in Katy at Fry Road and I-10. I live just outside downtown I do get 4G inside my home, but again 1 or 2 bars. With my limited investigation I'm going to have to conclude that the network speed is NOT ClearWire's fault, but more like a hardware limitation on the EVO. If someone modded the phone with a better antenna the speed might improve.

About the existing 3G speed and with EVO is WOW! 3G response is soooo much faster on the EVO that it was on my G1. Another comparison is my home AT&T U-verse: I get 5.71 Mbit down and 0.94 Mbit up. I'm trying to think of a way that I can get my TV another way and get ClearWire for home instead of U-verse.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
I dont think clear caps their 4G at all. See if you can connect to clear's 4G from your phone.
[EVO 4G General] oOflyeyesOo:
I get 2.5-3.5mb down and 800-1.3mb up. Still better than my dsl. :-p
[EVO 4G General] EVOKeith:
1.33 mpbs is the most I've gotten with 4G enabled. I am going to try again when I get home and see if the speed improves.
[EVO 4G General] jeffrimerman:
Anyone out there in the LA area getting 4g? I don't get 4g at all. My 3g is really fast, but no 4g shows. It just shows "scanning" in the settings.

Ok nevermind: LA still shows as coming soon on the sprint site.
[EVO 4G General] aztektum:
****, I'm in Portland, one of the first WiMax areas, and I'm only getting 300/k down and 800/k up as I speedtest it now.

No big to me. I have wifi at home that pegs 5/5ish and at work about the same. I usually keep the 3g/4g off unless I am out and need it. Battery suckin' pig that stuff.
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
I'm in Tacoma as well (Browns Point actually) and my place is right in the "best coverage" on the map also. Still only get 1 bar indoors...I'm a little disappointed...just a little...the Evo still rocks!
[EVO 4G General] GBodyTek:
Tracking my 'underwhelming' 4G speeds

I got my Evo on launch day from the Sprint store in Everett, WA and have used it daily as a hotspot for my 4+ year old Compaq laptop. I have performed ping tests on Speedtest.net (always to Netriver in Lynnwood, WA) and over the last 10 days I've averaged a 253ms ping, 1.57Mb down & 0.55Mb upstream. (Yes I have the documentation; I've been recording the results on an Excel spreadsheet.) I drive around town during the day and whether I have 3 bars or no bars, it is virtually the same results.

Yes, that is about 3 times faster than my Verizon Wireless account, but I was expecting an average of 3+Mb (3-6Mp w/10Mb bursts). I don't think that it is worth the $40 premium for Clear service.

Anyone else in Puget Sound area having these issues or have ideas to fix this?
[EVO 4G General] bry21317:
The best that I have gotten on my Evo 4g in Raleigh was over 8Mbps down and a little over 120KBs up on Speakeasy.net's speed test.

Most everywhere that I get even one bar, I can get at least 3-4Mbps.

I am very pleased with it, but I can also get in 3g mode around 1.5Mbps, so even that its a strong signal around here.

Bryan
[EVO 4G General] om4:
im surrounded by 4g and only get speeds of 1.2-1.7 the highest being 2.7 and one test on 4g resulted in 63 kbps download and 924kbps upload! i live in fresno tx and there are 4-5 4g antennas plus many more scattered heading towards pearland and a couple in missouri city heading to sugarland and no where have i gotten anywhere near 3mbps, this is so very disappointing
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
I was driving on I-270 and I-64 in St. Louis the other day and have been VERY disappointed with the 4G speeds here. Full 4G bars I was getting 1.3 Mbps down, 800kbps up. I turned the radio off to do a 3G comparrison...1.8 Mbps down, 1.2 Mbps up.

I've been running the tests for the past couple days and getting similar results. You have to be kidding me...
[EVO 4G General] asenduk:
Do not use the speedtest app if you are.. its not accurate!
[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
nope. wire tethered to my laptop.
[EVO 4G General] DrawnToScale:
Here in downtown Baltimore (the very first 4G city) I get about 1 bar of 4G and about 4 mbps on my Evo. There are places downtown where I do NOT get even 1 bar - then my 4G bandwidth drops to about ~300 kbps, far worse than the 2 mbps that I get with 3G.

One Sprint tech recommended that I keep my "Location" switch turned on and GPS turned on, which I wasn't doing previously. Before using this recommended setting, my 4G performance was far worse.

What is the relationship between GPS and 4G reception???
[EVO 4G General] Snake05:
So....

Now that it's been out for a few hours. Anyone gotten the MSL and a way to use the EVO as a modem without paying the $30 a month yet?

I used to use my Instinct with my laptop at work, and already miss this very much.

A tutorial would be helpful if anyone figures it out.
[EVO 4G General] Snake05:
Wow....

No hassle way to get your MSL:

I told mine I was having issues with some data services and it was "Asking for an MSL #, whatever that is...."

She asked if I was trying to set up a gmail acct: "Two of them actually" (Why not, right?)

Okay, your MSL is ######, and you'll need your MSID too, that's ###-###-####.

LOL! Cool.

Now just gotta get it working under PAM like the insitinct was.

Hi I have my phone rooted and am running the rooted version of the stock RUU is anyone having trouble using Sprint TV all I get is.

Error

You are not authorized to use this application. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. (3000)

Now I also ported my number from Tmobile and even though my number is working my phone still thinks its the new number so the port hasn't fully transferred yet. I called sprint and the customer service agent said my sprint tv should be working. So I was wondering if its working for anyone else with the rooted RUU?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P_Dub_S:

Is anyone coming from a G1 or other keyboarded device. Hows the touch screen typing going on the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] ShawnN:
Coming from Touch Pro 2 here and before that Palm Treo. I don't like the touch keyboard but I'm getting better with it. Still make a ton of mistakes. Haven't gotten the hang of the auto-correction feature either.
[EVO 4G General] jeffrimerman:
I just came for a G1 today to an Evo. It is sensitive, but not the same. It's ok. My favorite keyboard phone was my Motorola Q9h, that I could use one handed. My G1 was ok, but needed 2 hands, so the change to the Evo is less of a difference I guess since I need 2 hands still.

[HD2 General] Humongus1:
HD2 crashes

A couple of quick notes...:D

First you must remember your HD2 is a computer, programs that you install, from unknown sources could possible corrupt the operating system:eek:. I have found that when downloading apps, I come here. XDA has been really helpful in solving many of my hardware issues. Following download process is a must. If you get an app from somewhere else, come here first to see if their are any issues. I have had to hard reset on a few occasions, but that was because I was not paying attention. Its a hard lesson to learn, especially when you have installed your apps on your device and not your storage card (just remember to take your card out before doing hard reset and backup your contacts and apps). You can backup all your contacts to microsoftmypone. Then activate your account on your phone. I know its frustrating. What programs have you installed recently?
[HD2 General] lunaticz0r:
dont know..as i said i sent it back so ill see if it comes back or anything
[EVO 4G General] Classick206:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kassemalaa:
Hey, just a quick question... has anyone been experiencing problems with the market? I have been running FROYO since day one, and apart from the crappy ''new apps2sd'', it's been running flawlessly. But here I am today, trying to install apps from the market, and each time i try to install an app, it says "installation of [...] was unsuccesful''. The weird thing is that the market was working perfectly yesterday and it suddenly stopped today... i did not modify anything in the configuration of the phone and for those who might think that i have a faulty wifi connection, i tried at 3 different locations, with the same results... any help would be appreciated, thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjammoo:
Its not the market, its actually the setpminstalllocation that makes the apps store to sd. It the apps2sd problem.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ersdal:

[HD2 Accessories] Asquared:
I don't own one of these cases, but I'd suggest you take a look at the two "knobs" that appear to be contacting the back of your case, and see if they either have sharp edges that are scratching or some type of glue/epoxy that might be reacting with and chipping your phone. As the battery door appears to be metallic in composition, your problem might be due to some type of chemical reaction.
[HD2 Accessories] KalynSS999:
Nah, it's definitely from the stand. I have that same case and I'm glad I clicked on this thread. Mine hasn't gotten there yet, but after reading this I noticed a tiny bit of rubbing. I'm gonna put a piece of tape over it. Thanks for the heads up.
