Sorry, didn't get a fresh update about the bumper cases, I confess - I didn't check the latest news on the iPhone, since it doesn't interest me so much. I didn't suppose Apple would change their mind about the cases so quickly.

But about the antenna issue: testing it on iPhone and on Nexus are 2 different animals. On Nexus you have a hard number, signal strength in dBm. On iPhone (this is AFAIK, maybe something has changed since a week ago?) there is no way to see the signal strength, so any check of dropping vs non-dropping reception is irrelevant without any HW around that will show the exact signal strength at this point, and verify that it's indeed below the threshold that won't impact the reception (which is below -90 dBm).

And yes, ALL phones are impacted by the way they're held. No exception there. There are just regular cases, bad cases, regular cases that jump on a bandwagon of bad cases, and extremely bad cases.

your argument is invalid.

New Nexus One owner here. Couldn't be happier, really.

Coming from a G1... I feel like i've died and gone to heaven!

wooot
[Nexus One General] nexusdue:
You really have no clue, do you?

There are plenty of tech websites that have run tests on the iPhone 4 with apps that show signal strength.
[Nexus One General] McFroger3:
So many necros coming out lately.

[Nexus One General] ilostchild:
sorry to hear that man, i love my n1 and would never sell it at all, i honestly say sorry family, there is email, there is skype, there is phone, there is txt, to be even the fact you have to be on wifi(home) to use face time, thats why there is SKPYE!

bigger screen, better quailty(depends on pc) and probably more stable to stay connected on..

If you stuck on the iphone, then you can actualy jailbreak to get custom on it but even then that still doesnt really save it at all

i had to use iphone for 2 days, OMG i wanted to throw it across the room, and burn it! sooo slow,boring, and really useless!
[Touch HD General] bancika:
Hi, I upgraded my phone to the latest stock ROM and my SPL from 1.14 changed to 1.54. Is this the way things work or I have done something wrong ?
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
AFAIK, it's all as it should be.

Now you can enter the world of USPL / HSPL and custom ROMs... :)
[Touch HD General] bancika:
On Device Information it says that the rom version is 1.56.479.0, the radio is 1.13.25.24. Is this as is should be ?
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
If you have used RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.56.479.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe, then answer is yes...

[HD2 General] 70th:
I'm thinking of buying the HTC HD2 but is there much point now, if it won't be getting updated and newer and better phones are coming out?

I'm looking at it as it has the biggest screen(besides the streak which im also considering, but much more expensive)

What would you suggest?
[HD2 General] theabsurdman:
if you actually like winmo as it is, with the way windows phone 7 is shaping up the hd2 could become a very valuable antique.
[HD2 General] 70th:
I don't know because ive never used a winmo phone before.
[HD2 General] argentocruz:
What has been your phone history? And what do you use or intend using the phone for?

WM, iphone and android suit different ppl and WP7 looks weird imho...
[HD2 General] dan138zig:
well if you have the patient to wait until the end of 2010 or so, just wait. i didn't have :D or why don't you try Evo?
[HD2 General] 70th:
Over the last couple of years, ive only used the bold 9000, HTC Desire and iPhone 4, however i sent back the iphone 4 as the ui is getting very boring.

I use the phone more for texts and internet than phone, i primarily want to use it for web browsing, thats why the streak appealed to me, but this is cheaper, im just worried about updates, and the lack of official support after WP7

I can't wait until the end of 2010 i have no phone at present lol. Also im in the UK so the Evo is a no go otherwise i would definitely have it.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
if you like bets, get one now.

If the bet goes well, you will buy a "cheap" device which will get a fully functional froyo OS on it when the android devteam has completed the job, and be almost at the level of the Evo, without its bulkiness... and before the thing goes out and the demand increases, making the prices go higher.

If the bet goes bad, you still get a cheap but powerful device with WM on it :p

Anyway, given my experience with the device, and the market which is available for italy, I would get it again now as well.
[HD2 General] ribcage:
Try before you buy my friend.

I've been using winmo for years and I love it. The HD2 is my favorite device yet.

Winmo users generally love to tweak. These forums make tweaking fun and you can usually get whatever you need, want and more for your phone if you're willing to search for it.

That being said, some find winmo and the HD2 an utter frustration. Some lament about buying the HD2 because it doesn't do everything right out of the box.

So if you like to customise, tweak and experiment, you may just love the HD2.

If you like something that works to it's full potential right out of the box, but may not be quite so custimisable and tweakable, perhaps another platform would be better.
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
i really NEVER recommend ppl a windows phone.. except i know that he can handle it.

i dont know u, so i would recommend android :P

u NEED to know what u do when u are using winmo, or u will hate it
[HD2 General] Iron Doktor:
The more I read about WM7, the more I am glad I have a WM6.5 phone, and I'm not planning to 'upgrade' to such a locked down platform.
[HD2 General] 70th:
I love tweaking, which is another reason for considering this phone, and which is why i got rid of the iPhone 4.

I love the idea of registry tweaks, which may sound weird, and i also love the idea of a winmo device being just like windows on the pc (regarding registry tweaks).

And regarding having everything work out of the box, i find that very boring, im always looking to do new things with a phone.

The only problem i am seeing is the future updates, looking at Android they are going to have constant updates, but obviously winmo 6.5 is not. however if i know that winmo will be getting unofficial updates from devs etc i will be more than happy to buy the HD2.

Thanks for all the replies so far.
[HD2 General] 70th:
Ok, i went ahead and bought a HD2, hopefully i'll enjoy it.
[HD2 General] bluespire:
Please post your experiences with the phone.

And how much did you grab it for? US or non?
[HD2 General] dan138zig:
if you need big screen then definitely go for hd2. i was in your position. but screen size was a dealbreaker. had there one android phone with screen as big as this, i wouldn't have bought hd2 :D
[HD2 General] 70th:
I got it for £279, comes with quite bit of accessories too, I would post the eBay link but not sure if allowed. Non US version

Yes, the screen was probably the main reason for buying this phone.
[HD2 General] fi3ry_icy:
i have to say i agree about the screen.. i have a hd2 and my friend got a desire soon after me.. the screen estate difference is just HUGE...

and i recently ran the android test build side by side with his phone screen beside mine.. the difference just got worse coz the widget icons are much smaller in android compared to the quick link icons in winmo..

:D
[HD2 General] 70th:
Awesome, i cant wait for my HD2 now :).

I was getting sick of the headaches after surfing the web on my iPhone 4 due to the small screen.
[HD2 General] donwhann:
good choice.....

you made a good choice op. hd2 is my first wm phone and i'll admit, i love it. the tweaking on the phone is good fun. at the moment im running CHT and SPB Mobile Shell side by side as well as having loads of other little tweaks to make the phone my own. theres a ton of really good apps and software floating about the net.

The only bad point i can think of is Opera's non support of 10.1 for wm6.5. Skyfire's pretty usefull for flash though so all's not lost. i'm sure you will love your new phone bud......
[HD2 General] 70th:
Thanks, i hope so, i've never seen anyone else with one
[HD2 General] ilordvader:
Only 2 good phones to get

HD2 - Windows

Evo - Anaroid

I love my Htc HD2
[Touch2 General] KingKhali:
Did anyone even try to install HTC Touch Pro 2 Android on a HTC Mega? since they almost the same and alot of developers are developing android on TP2,

you can find the android development on the search button after u type in htc touch pro 2 and then under the android development section.

ps; it's just a question.
[Touch2 General] DannyBiker:
There are already various Android thread in the Development section...;)
[Touch2 General] KingKhali:
yeah but is it possible to use them on Touch2 / Mega?
[Touch2 General] DannyBiker:
I meant that you should check the development section here.

Click on my signature (you know, the one that says "help porting android to the HTC MEGA" ;)) to access the related topic.
[Touch2 General] KingKhali:
yeah i know but,

i just asked if it was possible to run the android from htc touch pro 2 on our touch 2
[Touch2 General] DannyBiker:
Well, if you insist THAT much and really don't want to click link, the answer is NO for the HTC MEGA/Touch 2 but we sure hope it will happen someday.

For the Touch Pro 2, I don't know...
[Touch2 General] Ajneil:
This thread made me laugh out loud. Thank you.

ps. good luck with Android, and nice work with your stuff so far. Much appreciated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] crypt0r:
Hi,

Does any1 know where to get a simple serial Terminal? I just want to open a COM-Port (Bluetooth) and send/recieve Bytes and ASCII

can some1 help me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jezwick:
+1

I went through this a while ago BUT with no joy in the free/shareware domain
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] crypt0r:
OMG that's ridiculus paying for nothing. The software has only to open a damn COM port and display or send Text and maybe convert the ASCII value to Decimal (Bytes).

I see I have to do this by myself...

I've never developed for Windows Mobile before. I have Visual Studio 2008 where i can select Mobile Devices. Lets see....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jezwick:
Since I last looked this seems to have moved into the freeware domain

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-mobilevt.html
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] crypt0r:
What i found is this:

h t t p : / / w w w . g r i g a i t i s . e u / ? p = 4 1 3

It is quite OK. It displays the text coming from my Robot via Bluetooth but I have to send specific Bytes and thats not possible with this app. Of course I can send the ASCII value of the Byte but the range ends by 127 and that is not enough...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] CentralBK:

i dataformat my sdcard, then download Latest release 2.2 Froyo Beta v2,and install it。 but,not successful。howerever,replaced Latest release 2.1 and install it, it can be runing normally。but no sound,no gprs。

please help me!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] newdecember:
the sound is a known issue with android on the diamond 2

gprs needs to be set up by adding the APN information into the settings, or also checking your startup.txt and removing the "force cdma" entry

any issues with the 2.2 beta please post in the relevant thread, don't add a new thread as it just causes congestion in the forums.

thanks for your time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rick94:
Check out the Energy Rom thread.

The Energy roms are the most populair out here and in my opinion also the best.

[Nexus One Android Development] houzuoguo:
Hey KiNgxKxNexus is back :)
[Nexus One Android Development] WebghostDK:
This is actually a nice ROM despite the graphical issues :)
[Nexus One Android Development] techlogik:
Blasphemy!!!

Seriously, the video thing is real annoying.

Back to Modaco R21 Desire. Hopefully the Froyo Sense build gets over to the N1 soon. The MFlops on Lindpack are crazy compared to the sad 6.8 I get with R21 Modaco.
[Nexus One Android Development] JupiterDroid:
Paul is finalising his port at the moment, i cant wait to see what he has cooked up for us;) Im sure paul wont release it untill he has made it stable and feature packed;)

JD
[Nexus One Android Development] joshlusignan:
Apparently Paul has got HTC flashlight working and FM working (which means BT is also working)

Exciting times in the world of Sense!!
[Nexus One Android Development] negreenfield:
I have to admit I'm getting pretty anxious for a Froyo Sense Port. I've tried out king's and they are a good start but I am waiting to see what comes from him and Paul soon. One big issue with King's is that there is only 40 MB of space for programs. It's still cool that it's out as quick as it is. I hope they both continue working on it regardless, the more the merrier I say!
[Nexus One Android Development] liorry:
Funny to see you guys talking about Paul's ROM in this thread but whatever :)

Anyway, tried this ROM couple of days ago, very nice work but the graphical glitches drove me crazy... so back to LeoFroyo for me :)

Keep up the great work!
[Nexus One Android Development] JupiterDroid:
The FM Radio stems from IR's kernel support so creds should be shared between the two for that;))

Flashlight hey;)

Cool....

JD
[Nexus One Android Development] joshlusignan:
I think they are both in on it anyway.;)
[Nexus One Android Development] joshlusignan:
Yeah for sure, a lot of hard work going on and it is always appreciated! :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Mikey:
Removed link due it includes Swype.

Swype has been removed from our site due to the creators request.

Since this is not your rom, this thread will be locked
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Read several places before launch that it would have smart unlock (draw a letter on screen to unlock and go directly to contact/app).

But this is not the case. Anybody know of a market app that can do this?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Bumping this. Anybody?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Will.1:
That was supposed to be on the Omnia II as well but never came out. I think it was on the Samsung Jet though.

Seems to be very very useful, wondering if they'll release it or if some app has the same capabilities.
[Desire General] Rickbob:
I have recently tried to get involved with the testing of some of the froyo roms out there (namely DeFrost) and i can say that with the input of many many people and the hard work of the developers progress has been swift.

my concern is the feedback is sometimes fairly subjective, with everyone using different tools to test with or in most cases nothing more than an observation; "i feel this is slower than ver2.x"

People/the community if you like, will always have their own opinions and these are no doubt important issues the developers will want to address.

However I would like to see testing become more standardised as i believe this can only lead to increased accuracy of feedback and so greater and maybe more focused development.

Firstly i would like to start a discussion on the type of tools/apps available for testing purposes, and compile a definitive list of such apps.

And secondly develop a method of testing, and feedback.

Help from the community, testers and developers would be greatly appreciated.
[Desire General] Rickbob:
I will start us off.

im currently using:-

Linpack for android and Quadrant for benchmarking (nomaly run them 10 times for an average score)

JuicePlotter for battery drain

System Monitor by skwid for CPU and RAM usage

Im looking for replacements for JuicePlotter as it doesn't give enough detail

and iv just started using System Monitor but first impressions are not great.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Like most GPS systems out there, I would love to be able to turn the map automatically so it faces the same direction I am driving, not just always north. Possible?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Nobody? Please...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dupel:
Im not sure if its limitation of google maps on android or samsungs. It has all the hardware for it, so should be possible...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bynar010:
It does doesn't it? You changed the view mode? Press the icon in the bottom left of your screen....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
the build in google map is just like your web browser google map, it is static

if you want a navigation style / step by step

you will need to get CoPilot8 software for android
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bynar010:
Install the google maps navigation beta if its not already in your phone. I thought it was on the galaxy by default. That will give u the sat nav view.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Eh... Not interested in that, only what I originally asked: Auomatic map orientation in driving directiuon
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bynar010:
Well if you are using it for driving purposes why not use the navigation addon? Otherwise you've had it I think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Robin.B:
Well he could be walking; for which this feature would be extremely useful!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Will.1:
Well in that case I think the simple google maps app with the arrow showing which way you're going would be fine.

But yea, if you're driving you might have to invest in a real gps solution like AllGamer suggested.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
when i'm walking, i use the regular google map, it is sooooooooooo much faster than a full fledge GPS software suit to load and link up with Satellites.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vtipo:
I have strange USB connection problem on my TD 2. Active Sync can't see the phone, but when i switch to Disk Drive mode then I can read at least SD card.

Problem is not in Active Sync, I tried to connect on other PC and the result was the same, ActiveSync can't see the phone. Any ideas what's wrong?
