[Off-topic] Purple Drama Llama:
After translating his sentence 18 times I get this sentence:

Bezhee Abasalissan Order feather duster, Buber how?

I think that was the intention of his sentence, which translated to

Order a feather duster Bezhee Abasalissan, Buber, how?

after translating it to english to arfikanese or something then hungarian it finally makes sense! I used yiddish, spanish, polish, irish, italian, persian, swedish, hebrew, korean, chinese, thai, dutch and a bunch more.... BTW

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sushichef:
The keyboard is incredible in 2.2 froyo on the evo, but i'd love to see it in 2.1. I've tried to install the apk in froyo through adb to fresh .3, but no avail.

The apk is designed for 2.2, so it cannot be installed on 2.1, and gets a [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK] error.

So what would need to probably happen for it to run on 2.1 is for it to be decompiled and then recompiled under 2.1. Can anyone help point me in the right direction.

PS if you havent used the froyo stock keyboard, its amazing.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DanRyb:
I totally agree! If it's possible, I'd love to use it! The 2.1 stock keyboard doesn't compare to what's in 2.2. So much better!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] soxozor:
What are the major differences? Aside from the keyboard and its numbers?

I would be impressed if the keyboard was enabled multi touch.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sushichef:
The 2.2 keyboard has a better way of adding new words, and seems to have better precision.

Any ideas anyone?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rdude:
I believe this is doable but it'd be a bit of work. Probably would have to start with the 2.2 source and do some hacking since the 2.2 keyboard relies on 2.2 API's for things like voice input.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] wildcard:
I like the HTC keyboard because of the "mic" input option. Do any other keyboards have this?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
Yes froyo has that..actually I think the voice to txt is more accurate in froyo also.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
Cool idea.. but I wouldn't use it. Even his example got cumbersome.. like a zip code. Why not just switch to numeric and type it, rather then dragging up on every character. Plus, the sense keyboard already has these extras programmed into the keys with a long press. Doesn't intrigue me too much.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
I use the voice to text all the time as a matter fact i'm using right now.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
I can tell due to lack of punctuation. :D

You guys know you can speak punctuation too right? Not that I'm telling you to, but just in case anyone didn't know that. "period" will give you a period , "question mark" a question mark. Im sure you get it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
yeah but i just find that weird..im afraid if i start doing that then maybe it might carry over in real conversation LMAO!!

nope not gonna happen you will have to deal with my lack of punctuation and grammar also I'm sure! :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] EtherealRemnant:
Wait... your posts are from the speech to text in Froyo???? Or Eclair? Because unless it learns over time, I found speech to text to be terrible...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
Haha yeah, especially if anyone else hears you.

Speech to text is pretty good, long as you speak clearly. I used to use whatever is built into the xda keyboard but now my evo keyboard has it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
some of them are it just depends on if i am driving etc. its not perfect but it works surprisingly better then any other speech to txt i have tried.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] wildcard:
I use it on 2.1 and it works great every time. It gets names right, and even can do smilies (ie: say "happy face", or LOL etc.). Even does punctuation... it's great...

I just off the phone with the most helpful Spring employee I've ever dealt with. Not only did she do a network refresh so both phones on my account (which had significant impact on my 3g speeds, at least in the short term), she told me about 2 new towers they are putting in my area (north side of Indianapolis). One is going up in August and one in December.

I am actually optimistic about staying with Spring, which is a good feeling.

This isn't the best answer, but if you have a HD2 you can use BSB tweaks to add pinch-to-zoom to nearly any program, and it acts more like a magnifying glass than actually zooming in.

[General Questions and Answers] erikvario:
depends on phone.

in some wm 6.5.x roms, you can touch the left uppercorner and you can tap a loop and it zooms in.

and you can google on ing changefont to change font
[HD2 General] SecrtAgentMan:
In about 2 hours my battery drops down to 50%, anybody have any ways to lessen up the battery usage?

Also is the back of the phone and bottom from supposed to be that hot.
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:
2hr 50% isn't normal.

and yes, back of the phone gets hot while it's in use.

So if your phone is hot even though you turned it off, means it's running a data heavy app.

Ways to help fix your problems.

1. Download and install an app called, BsB Tweaks. enable battery saving mode.

2. Turn your brightness down. Automatically adjust is a great way to save some juice.

3. take out your microSD from the phone to see if it's been draining battery by accessing it constantly.

4. search the forums and download NRG's Doc disable cab. It'll disable your phone from accessing the sd card needlessly.

5. switch to EDGE network when you're not using data heavy app (internet browsing, bing navigation, etc). EDGE isn't that bad in the first place.

if none of the methods does not work, call in and replace the phone.
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
Stock or custom rom?

if custom which rom?

what radio are you using?

is the phone in sleep mode during this two hours or are you on the phone?

With this info we might be able to help you.
[HD2 General] SecrtAgentMan:
Stock ROM

No radio usage really, just whatever was on the phone

Sometimes the screen turns off if it isn't in use for about 10-15 seconds

Also I was using the internet for most of the time, and just checking out the apps and such.
[HD2 General] SecrtAgentMan:
Where do I find the app?

Also will installing cab files void my warranty?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
It's here at xda...just search BsB Tweaks, you'll find it easily.

No, installing cabs won't void your warranty. Only replacing the SPL will do that, which you'll only do if you want to flash a custom ROM or different radio.
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
which stock rom? If you haven't updated to 2.13 you might want to look into it as the radio will be updated also which might be your issue.

You could also turn off 3G which saves battery life, if your connected to bluetooth or wifi this is also going to help take battery life out of your HD2.

& are you listening to music while doing all of this. it is very possible to lose 50% within those two hours based on your usage on this phone. There are multiple things to do to save battery but they come with a cost. for example don't have your phone retreat your message as often. I set mine for every 15 minutes as I usually need my messages but it does wear down much faster than when I had it set for every 1 hour.

Okay, so I tried this last year and I gave up and yet, I'm doing it all over again ending up with the same problem:

I have a Mac and I installed Eclipse 3.5.2 Cocoa. So, I want to install the Android Developers Tools (ADT) but whenever I go from Eclipse --> Preferences --> Available Software Sites and I add the site but nothing happens after that. There is no checkboxes to check for "Developers Tools" so I cant move forward to configure the ADT..

Help me out so I can start developing some apps.

THanks nullstring, I tried that but it seems that the androlib site has more listed than windows but I guess there are more android apps too but anyway, for those who tried to help, thanks.

I think I'll go with android as I did not like the UI on the HD2 I tried and I have yet to find a proggy for windows that makes things on the screen big enough for me to see.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] guiri_too:
Well, when I got my phone at T mobile today (I was tired of att and verizon, long story..) I asked for an android phone and I get home and see it's a windows phone...?

Mind you, I'm not surprised considering they didn't even know what GSM is when I asked if t mobile was gsm.

I LIKE the fact that it acts as a hot spot so what is FROYO?

I also thing I'l like droid better so here's the question, do they make the HD2 for android and is it available for t mobile?

Also, the navigation on the windows hd2 I have seems totally retarded... :(

Yes, the droid (I had the 8183) was much better.

Does it mean I liked the 8183? Nope and whoever the idiot is that wrote the software that only lets you use a FRACTION of the big a$$ screen to display info, phone numbers, names and such should be shot, SLOWLY!

You guys have NO idea how many countless hours I've spent in frustration, trying to find a way to SEE things on the screen with my $hitty eyesight and all because some moron is too stupid to figure out that MAYBE they should start with making the BASICS work on the phone.

You know, kinda like the iPhone. It was great, EXCEPT at being a friggin' PHONE! Let's see, iPHONE, what part of phone didn't you understand?

Sadly enough, ALL these idiots make more money at what they do than I do :(

there's a lot of things to look at but the best way to choose is this.

if you are running an app and it has issues or require a bit of memory, window will lock up and then you have to reset the phone.

with android you'll get a force close notification which you just ok it and keep using it with out having to reset.

OK, As a windows Fanboy turned android here is the main thing Windows does better than android: Multimedia!!

Android is still new to the game and in my opinion hasn't really got a good video and music player. There are some ones that can pass but compared to Windows and iphone they are not that great. On the flip side I plan on developing my own music player which counts for the openness of android. WinMo is arguably just as open BUT with them going a different direction with WM7 I had to jump ship. As for Androids advantages......everything else is just as good if not better than windows (except how they manage the SD card)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rogershroed1991:
That's not how business works. Any phone advertised on TV (like the Pre) is designed for general consumers (people who don't care about the things you're talking about). It would be a terrible business decision to spend more time and money incorporating things that 99% of their target market don't care about or don't even know they're missing. If you're posting on XDA you're probably a lot more tech savvy than the average consumer, thus phones marketed towards the average consumer won't have 100% of the features you request. I always like to buy phones that are rarer and not advertised, mainly because I like having stuff that other people don't have, but also because they usually end up being a cut above the rest of the phones on the market.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] heybobitsme:
If I were you guiri_too, and can afford it, I'd order the Nexus One unlocked and as soon as it arrives, root the thing, put Froyo on it (if I could find it) and take that winblows phone back to T-Mobile. I can't believe they gave you that after asking for an Android phone. That has to be one of the dumbest salesmen ever! Or if you want to stay with T-Mobile and happen to like Sense (Espresso Sense), pick up the the MyTouch Slide. It has a keyboard, MS Exchange support and is pretty snappy to boot (speaking of boot, it only takes about a minute from hitting the power button to making a call). If you need a more business-like phone, I would suggest the Sprint Evo 4G. It's the same size as the HD2, 4.3", but it's Android. The UI looks like the HD2 as well (Sense), but it's a lot quicker and more stable. A friend of mine picked this up after having the Sprint Hero, which he got after the TouchPro (winmo) and couldn't be happier.

As far as the original question, I can only give you an anecdote; when I got my G1, my wife had a Wing which she hated. After a few months of watching me play with my phone all the time, and her Wing being replaced twice, she bought hers and was instantly hooked. We have been android fans ever since. So the advantages of Android for me are awesome stability, openness and apps, of which you don't have to use the market for (unless you get an ATT android).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] guiri_too:
Let me try to address the replies in one window.

First as for being tech savvy, yeah, I guess I am and I've been around long enough to be picky, HOWEVER, my BASIC needs are a phone I can HEAR and SEE. How come Nextel have speakers that you can hear clear across the next state and this thing I got, the HD2 I can barely hear with the fans in the car running despite them telling me it was really loud...?

Sure, I want a lot of stuff but if you read through all my info, you'll see that some of the things i don't really care about like social networking, streaming video, mp3 player and much more. LARGE FONT! How the hell hard is that to figure out? I mean, for those here who program and considering it's even in very simple programs. IS IT THAT hard to have an option of making the font bigger?

To Heybob. Bob, the problem is that I can't try and see these phones live so to speak. ALL the phones at tmobile are dummies or at least the ones I'm interested in.

Second, to be quite honest and when I think about it, I am not sure if she did mention this one was windows but I DID tell her I prefered android. In any case, NOT knowing what GSM is or if tmobile was GSM is not something I can let slide, ESPECIALLY considering she was the manager...

Now, so far, my tmobile coverage has seemed good. Yes, the phone as in the UI is still totally retarded so the windows OS has got to go. More than likely when I return this, if I still like tmobile then, I'll get a phone from Negri that's unlocked and if I'm not mistaken, he HAS Froyo phones in stock. Hold, gonna call and check..yep, he's got Nexus One with Froyo ready to ship.

Tell'em George with the long wish list sent ya if you buy one. Not that I think I'll get any referrals but hey, it never hurts when it comes time to bug them about finding me the right phone. :)

Anyway, back to the phones. I do NOT like this windows UI so that one is out. I like that I have found a site with something like 80,000+ apps all in one place and although I'm not stingy, when you're TRYING apps and don't know if you'll like them or not, it helps if they're cheap or free. I got something on hte Pre I didn't like but hell ,I wasn't about to ask for a $1.50 refund.

Many of the windows apps were $15 or around there. I'm not paying it if I can't get a refund if I don't like the software and I AM picky with software too.

By the way, is there someone here that has a rooted android phone that wouldn't mind putting this font proggy on there (hell, I'll be happy to pay for it at only 2 bucks or something) and show me the different font size options? http://www.androlib.com/android.application.org-pbxes-fontsize-BiEA.aspx

I WAS going to do that but as you know, I didn't get a droid phone :(

I showed this dude on the androlib forum this proggy. He gets it, his wife likes it (he got it for her) and now he's too busy to show me some screen captures. Thanks a lot :(
