Go with the Samsung Galaxy S on T-Mobile.

Leaked pictures have shown that it will be sold at retail for 329.99 USD.

Super AMOLED + a kickass GPU that blows (currently) the GPU used in the iPad and the iPhone4.

With the 1 Ghz hummingbird chip currently besting the Snapdragon (until Qualcomm releases their dual-core update later this year through Project Emerald?), it is the best bang for your buck money can buy right now.

However, the HD2 has the sexiest shell-design you'll ever see in a phone. The Galaxy S will feel a little plasticky and cheap compared to the HD2. Even the EVO looks subpar against the HD2. That's how much love we're talking here with regards to the HD2's shell design. ;)
[General Topics] legion21:
i wish i had the freedom to change networks whenever i wanted, the evo looks like a beast of a phone and the epic 4g looks pretty sweet as well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corollagtssrx:
Hello, I just ordered a HD2 that is locked to Tmobile, so I believe it is the 1024Leo. My main question is, Do I need to find someone with a Tmobile Sim to be able to install Hardspl or can I just hook it up to USB and run the program?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this question, it just seemed correct.

Thank you,

-James
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
no you dont need a sim in to run hspl.

You know hspl wont unlock the network lock though, right?

There is no hack/unlocker for the hd2. You will need to buy a code or get one off t mo.
[Desire General] padsmcnulty:
Ok,

I think I'm in trouble here. I got a HTC Desire a couple of days ago from Orange. I promised I wouldn't mess with my phone this time, new OS (I had custom ROMS on touch HD, Kaisers, etc) but thought I'd leave this alone. Just wanted some stablity.

But then Orange went and stuffed their Desire full of crap and after reading lots I thought, well I've done it WM phones,and others seem to do okay so here goes.

Made the Goldcard. following the instructions for rooting. Everything seemed to go well until....

I turn the phone on, hmm, yep it's different, no Orange splash screen, different sound (before I had no start up sound). HTC, green on white shows....a second....locked screen.

"Network Locked - Please contact customer care". I unlock the screen by sliding down and am faced with:

"SIM network unlock PIN".

What have I done? Can I get phone back? Is it my SIM?

Any ideas or help? Should I start at the beginning? or anyone know where it went wrong?

All help galdy received.

Cheers

Paddy :confused::confused::eek::eek::confused::confused::(:(:(
[Desire General] dnlgee:
AdamG kindly provided a list of URLs for stock radios, you just need to download the 4.05.00.11 radio and flash it through recovery menu.
[Desire General] rolfd:
Yep, it's your radio needs downgraded. Just remember that radio flashes go through 2 reboots, and under no circumastances interrupt the radio flash by removing the battery if you think it's taking too long or whatever.
[Desire General] acolwill:
Either that, or just network unlock your phone. I gave up re-flashing radio roms whilst testing, just to use my phone.

Don't bother speaking to Orange, they're about as usefull as a chocolate fireguard.
[Desire General] xmoo:
So did this fix ur issue?

I'm also planning to get a black Orange HTC Desire from uk.
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Yes it fixes the issue, Orange only allow that radio I mentioned to be used on their network atm. I, myself and many others had this problem when debranding.
[Desire General] padsmcnulty:
Wow, so maybe not so bad as I thought!. Now, I just have to copy over the radio zip file to the micro SD card, and follow the instructions. Thanks for your swift repies.

Paddy
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Can't justify paying 15 quid to save myself doing a process that doesn't even take 3 minutes to complete. I will unlock when my contract is up though.
[Desire General] dnlgee:
Yes mate, just download the zip file to your SDCard, flash into ClockWork recovery and then choose 'install zip from SDCard'
[Desire General] shawe_ewahs:
Install ROM Manager, search for my repo, and flash your needed radio :)
[Desire General] acolwill:
Whenever I look at your rom list, rom manager comes back with an error:

"Error occured while processing the ROM list!"
[Desire General] padsmcnulty:
Ah, you're stars! NEver knew about the radio problem with Orange.

So, all sorted. A shiny lovely Desire, with none of the Orange crap - and it was loads. the thing that really irritated me was that they didn't even give you the option to uninstall the game demos. A feel a bit freer, and a lot less stressed.

time to finish my cider, re install some apps.

Cheers

Paddy :D:D:D:):):)
[Desire General] rolfd:
Well done! I'm sure that sinking feeling that you have bricked it is a distant memory now. lol. :D
[Desire General] acolwill:
I'd suggest investing in a license for Titanium Backup, saves trying to remember what you've installed and were you stuck their icons!

Likewise, worked for me for a couple of days but now I get the same error.

Hi All

Is there or is there not a Vlc player for the WM. I have read various forums and followed dead links and would like to know oce and for all does this exist or not and if so does anyone have a working link to the download the app.

Many thanks in advance:D
[General Questions and Answers] p00ltergeist:
Is this is what you're looking for ?

http://portableapps.com/news/2010-02-01_-_vlc_media_player_portable_1.0.5
[General Questions and Answers] stylez:
A.F.A.K there is no VLC the best freebee you will find is TCPMP or if you wish for the up to date version CorePlayer but costs money.
[General Questions and Answers] Dixiesmu:
Hi guys

Thanks for the answers and link:D

I had a look at the portable apps but this is actually for windows 2000 and above, so I think stylez you are correct in saying that as yet the answer is no, but it would be nice if they did make a version, oh well maybe one day.:rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] p00ltergeist:
To bad I found the wrong stuff , thought it looked very promising.

I must say I agree with stylez , Coreplayer and tcpmp is without a doubt the best players for WinMo..

Anyway keep on searching , and maybe you'll find something about the vlc someday, but until then I suggest you use coreplayer :)

Mod edit:

Do not post warez/cracked software on this forum!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ra0031259:
Hi,

I saw a video from Droid X were was shown the ability to resize widget’s,

i think that’s very cool.

Do you think It’s possible to port the widgets and the ability to resize for magic? or even the whole rom to magic since it seems very simple and very vanilla like?

Thanks....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Deviser:
If you use ADW launcher, you can do that ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ra0031259:
Resize

how do i resize the widgets with ADW.launcher? what widgets is possible to resize?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
This has nothing to do with developing roms.

I'm moving to General.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ra0031259:
Resize

Sorry my mistake... :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
When you add a widget (it could be any widget) a popup will appear with the default dimensions and give you an option to change them. I guess it is "cool" but it purely practical terms it's kinda pointless.

-First if you stretch or shrink a widget without keeping it's aspect ratio it will look awful

-If you stretch a widget all the graphics will look horrid because they aren't are still at a lower resolution just stretch

-If you shrink a widget any text becomes unreadable, this isn't a problem on high resolution WVGA devices but it is on the Magic.

It's possible, but there's a reason it isn't officially supported.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] SiL3nTKiLL:
how do u resize it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ra0031259:
Resize

Thats way i’ve liked what i saw in the video (sorry but i cant find it now) the example was the calendar, the widget change the organization it self. Its like HTC Calendar Widget, that have the grid, the bar and a event list, but there you can change just by resize, it’s not a simple stretch... if i find the video i’ll post it
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
Well then you're not resizing, just choosing a different widget in itself.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DrBarrell:
Hey guys, I really like all that I've read about the phone but I have one major worry which could possibly be a deal breaker :(

I was wondering if you can use the SGS as a modem on a mac in the same way you can use it on a PC? (Internet tethering)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xfox:
you can use Wifi tethering
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DrBarrell:
Thanks for the reply :), sorry I'm a newbie to android. Just ordered from Vodafone :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheMaverick:
Enable usb debugging in the settings and then mount the device and it should work on mac, that's what I did.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltraLinx:
I was just wondering if you could apply a theme to the stock rom which I have.

I haven't rooted or done anything like that because I honestly am such an amateur at that kind of stuff.

So back to my main question, can you have a theme on the stock rom?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Not on stock as it will be odexed, meaning that the service framework is packaged for a specific device and this also blocks any attempts at theming it.

However, if you root and flash a custom rom that is de-odexed, then you will be able to make changes to the framework and apply themes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltraLinx:
Ok thanks, just wanted to be clear on it.

I'm guessing that you have rooted [it's in your signature] so I was wondering is it an easy quick process on rooting?

Because i see no videos on youtube of people rooting the HTC Desire to the new Froyo so i don't know if it.s easy or not or how you check what bootloader you have ETC.

I want to root but i'm just scared of doing something wrong and messing up my phone.

I bought it from amazon unbranded and unlocked, if that helps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Yes, rooting itself is not too difficult and it will not take long at all. What takes up most of the time is the actual flash as you have to wait until it completes - takes roughly 10 mins.

I would like you to check what Bootloader version you are running. To do so, switch off the device. Turn it on by holding the ‘back’ key. You should be able to see the text ‘HBOOT’, and a version number beside it. This number is the bootloader version. It will either read 0.75.0000 or 0.80.0000.

When you finished rebooting your phone, next check your software version: press Menu > Settings > Scroll down the screen, and then tap About phone > Software Information > Build number.

Also, could you tell me what OS you are currently running?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltraLinx:
I'm running 0.80.0000 bootloader.

Build Number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys

I'm running windows 7.

Thank you for the help by the way and sorry I've taken quite a while to reply, been busy :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Ok, thank you for that information, no problem whatsoever with the late reply :)

Follow this guide - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696189 - it explains absolutely everything you will need to know in order to root, flash a custom rom, etc onto your Desire. Just go to the relevant sections, you will not need to create a Gold Card so you can skip that step. The guide itself is pretty straightforward and if you have any further concerns or related questions, just post back here and either myself or another XDA member will gladly help you out.

Before you attempt rooting, also ensure that you have HTC Sync installed to avoid any driver issues.

EDIT: if you are wanting to flash a Froyo rom, then this is done slightly differently. You follow the same principles - you must full wipe your device and then flash the rom. But if you want to install additional extra's, such as Apps2SD, then you need to play around a little with the Android SDK and ADB - you will notice this while you read the install instructions for Froyo based roms.

Regards,

Mas.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltraLinx:
Thank you very much Mas, nice to know there are people who are actually willing to help on this forum.

Few other things I would like to know about are,

Roms, how do they work and which ones are the good ones?

Radio's, what exactly are they?

Kernals, don't have a clue about what they are either?

AND one last thing, can you apply any theme over any rom?

Thank you again :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArtieQ:
Theme as in what? I use LauncherPro instead of Sense and I can customize it any way I want. Icons, widgets.. you name it!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Custom ROMs are basically image files that contain different versions of firmware that you can flash onto your device. You can flash generic roms or custom roms which allow you to have an operating system that fits your likes and needs. In many cases, custom ROMs strip out non essential pre-installed software as well as apply various performance tweaks. In my experience, using a custom ROM is much better than the stock ROM simply because of performance and it unlocks the device to use it at it's full potential.

Radio's are also ROM images that come in different versions. You can either downgrade or upgrade to a diferent radio version by flashing it via Recovery Mode, just like you would do with custom ROMs. The radio ROM provides improvements on the GSM radio stack and this has effect on the GSM signal, AT command interface, GSM data modem (3G, GPRS, EDGE, HSDPA, etc...) functionality that is controlled by the Radio Interface Layer (RIL). Depending on the radio version you flash, they can also improve Wi-Fi signal issues and things like battery life. Many roms cana also come with a radio rom included or you can install them separately:

Link here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=687464

The kernel is the central component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components)

You would have seen that there are modified kernel's available to flash on the forums, these can provide some enhancements and extra features for your handset.

You can apply a theme over a custom rom that has been de-odexed, allowing you to make changes to the framework. You will be able to tell which roms have been de-odexed by simply reading the Changelog notes of each rom.

Note: i did not mention this before but regarding flashing, you can also use the safer methods by an app like ROM Manager (needs root access to use), read more about it here:

http://androidforums.com/applicatio...r-easiest-way-install-roms-must-have-app.html
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
@ArtieQ i presume he means actual themes that you can apply, custom lockscreens, custom bootscreens, custom icons, etc.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArtieQ:

Make that 28% now.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerry43812:
no I haven't. To be totally honest, this battery usually lasts all day with what you can call moderate usage. I haven't calibrated the battery with the system because 99% of the time, it sits on usb charge because my job requires internet and this is the only high speed I get. So, in a way it is constantly at 100% unless I have to leave, I bring the phone with me.

Ive spent hours and hours on google, looking for a way to DECOMPILE a .dll but the actual term is DISASSEMBLE, and I think I may have something, its in the picture below, can anyone tell me anything, Im trying to learn how to read the stuff now
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Rajinn:
you cannot get a source code from a compiled binary

if you want to view the compiled assembly and try to make sense of it I recommend using IDA or OllyDbg

you can also use the hexrays addon to IDA to mock up some C code from a function.

without a map file or a very large export table, you wont be able to get function names.

what you are looking at in that picture is just a list of exports, its almost useless.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] undefined:
nice! thanks alot! ill try and figure this out now too, so from what it looks like, when im all done and have a big headache, ill have something that looks like c?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] msullivan:
Would this be useful? I have IDA installed, and know some C (not ARM instructions, though). I'd imagine someone's probably already done that, though?

If this were a standard x86 binary (what I'm familiar with), getting a C mock up would be immensely useful. But since we're in ARM I know it's a whole different ballgame.

[G1 General] Jincos:
CyanogenMOD 5.0.8 is pretty quick.
[G1 General] Aznneedlovetoo:
Cyanogen 5.0.8 is actually very stable but very slow. atleast to me it is.

Ive tried SuperE, Cyanogen, CaNNoN202, SpeedTeam and Chromatic Eclair roms. And so far Chromatic seems alot faster than all those roms.

SpeedTeam's and CaNNoN202's roms are decently quick and stable.

But SuperE had to be the biggest disappointment. :(
[G1 General] SLUSHIE:
I've been using cyanogen and didn't think it was worth it to try something else, since most things are just built on it. I'm about to try Chromatic though.
[G1 General] Aznneedlovetoo:
Yeah I highly suggest it!

Tell me what you think. :o
[G1 General] SLUSHIE:
I like it, its colors go way better with the way I have my widgets and stuff setup.

I don't like the lack of apps menu button on the launcher though, and would prefer normal icons instead of the white shapes.

Also it seems like every single thing installed on the phone is running when it starts up.
