Browsing around and I came across this. The specs are not too good, but it is cheap, Android, and can use Wifi, and supposedly has Accelerometer. What I would wonder though is would it be able to access Android market, just because I know that with the Nexus One you need a SIM card to do that. And also, it only comes with Android v. 1.6, but I am sure there is some way to upgrade that to the latest version?
[General Topics] untrueparadox:
what a piece off trash.. 350mhz really? that 800x480 screen is gonna lag so bad on anything u try to run. market will definitely work because thats the max screen resolution allowed in the market. i think the processor is slower than the one in the g1.
[General Topics] Stevv:
There is also the fact I forgot to mention that anything coming from this website is definitely not the most-reliable piece of hardware.

i was going through the screenshots thread and came across this link for getting transparent widgets:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=652661

now, i know it's in the nexus one forums. it mentions "morphing". what is that? i know people are applying that transparency on their evos via this "morph". any help/clarification would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jykinturah:
There is an app called MetaMorph in the market that allows one to apply themes on top of each other. Most themes modify a file called framework-res.apk in the /system/framework directory, and most themes simply overwrite the file. MetaMorph actually unpacks the file and changes only the required files within the package. MetaMorph also does this with other .jar files and .apk files.

The problem with MetaMorph is that is usually reboots the phone or crashes while applying a theme. In most cases, the theme is applied despite the crash. Sometimes it isn't, in this case, the only option is to try again.

Also, some themes are device specific, so caution is recommended.

I recommend you Nandroid before you do any morphing. :cool:

[Legend General] halftimefeel:
can anyone advise as to how bad the antenna problem with the handset is (experienced by users at vodafone)? i am looking to get a handset sim free and perhaps use o2 or t-mobile instead. if anyone has the handset and is with a different operator i would like to hear your experience using the handset.

thanks.
[Legend General] Mattdonns:
with voda, v annoyed. only let down to a perfect phone, happens 60-70% of the time sending a text will come up with the annoying ''message not sent retrying, then need to wait a min for signal to reappear
[Legend General] halftimefeel:
sorry to hear that mate, i read some of the comments posted on the voda forums about the handset...lots of different ideas going around as to what the problem was...looking at the last page of what was quite a long thread there didn't seem to be any real conclusion as such.

i was wondering if anyone had the handset on a different network?
[Legend General] noobdeagle:
Mine is fine in australia on optus. Only times I lose all reception is in actual dead zones where no one on optus gets reception such as when driving in rural areas
[Legend General] AllWin:
No problems for me yet on non-branded Legend ;)
[Legend General] familyhousing:
I have legend on o2 UK. Have

only experienced a message not sent problem a couple of times over a couple of months. Having said that, o2's data network is crumbling at present with iPhone demand. They seem to have recently introduced a 5-10 second delay on end queries at peak time.
[Legend General] danton47:
I personally haven't experienced problems with SMS (I don't use it much anyway). But the general reception quality of Legend is quite poor compared to other handsets I have or had (Nokias, HTC Magic, Motorola Droid)
[Legend General] Mafiatounes:
I have never had reception problems with my legend in belguim
[Legend General] robto:
No problem at all with unbranded legend at Spain.
[Legend General] GingerPiston:
I'm on Voda in the UK with a Legend and have all sorts of problems with antenna.

Am waiting for either Froyo or the update firmware update thats floating about too see if that solves the problem. It MAY be software in this case, unlike Apple!
[Legend General] ab2bad:
I have used legend in Serbia on Telenor network and in Montenegro on Telenor network too. In Serbia i have reception issue, weak signal on some spots but in Montenegro i didn't have any problems.
[Legend General] cr4yo:
I'm in Canada with Bell and when I hold the phone at the bottom (like the iPhone 4 problem)... I lose antenna signal. I just bought a plastic case and it seems to fix the problem but not completely.
[Legend General] robto:
You can measure the efect of holding Legend in the following way:

1.- Select: Menu->Settings->About->Network (apologies if it is similar but not exactly the same: my Legend is in Spanish)

2.- Look at the value: Signal Strength. When lower this value is, betther signal strenth. In my case, if I put Legend on a table I get: 87 dBm. When I hold in my hand: -99 dBm. So, holding efect is "very" low.

Maybe 3g network in your area is not very good. Try switching to 2g.
[Legend General] nomad4ever:
No problems here with unbranded Legend on Indosat network in Indonesia using Handcent for texting.

The last screen I saw was an android out of the box. I pulled the battery and now my device refuses to turn on. Bricked?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychopsilocin:
Also, if I send the device back to Sprint and claim that the OTA did this, will they know I was messing with root and roms? And how can I prevent this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
what exactly were you doing that led to this "bricking"?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piry525:
Android out of the box that sounds like it was writting the radio if the battery was pulled that's a really bad thing
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychopsilocin:
I flashed Fresh's 0.5.3 along with the new radio and noob's JIT patch all in one shot. Rebooted, hung at the Android out of the box. And I battery pulled.

I called Sprint and they told me to take it down to a service center. I'm looking through my microSD from remnants of rooting and flashing. Do you think they can salvage what's on the system ROM?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
oh wow.. dude, that's a bit of a big bite. pulling the battery may have been the cause.

what sprint is most likely going to do is boot into the bootloader and wipe user data (hard reset). you can pull the "the ota update killed it" reason (as i told them before i got mine to start working again). you can't turn it on at all??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CYBERxNUKE:
Refuses to power on or boot?

Power: does it charge? Or indicate that it does?

Keep holding power while putting in battery.

Connect usb cable with battery out of the phone.

Boot: hold vol down + power together to boot into boot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychopsilocin:
It refuses to power on. I've tried all of the above.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
if you plug it in the usb, is there a light to show that it's charging?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychopsilocin:
No LED light to indicate that it's charging. Not even the slightest hint that it's still alive. If I could've gotten to the bootloader all would've been well.

I'm worried that when I bring it to Sprint, they'll salvage what's on the ROM and realize that I've been rooting and flashing. I hope the ROM is unreadable. Maybe that's the reason why it won't turn on.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -shift-:
yea, it does sound like it. just to give you a heads up though, evos are pretty sold out everywhere. i went to the corporate store here in nj and i called them up as well, no dice. they are sold out.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychopsilocin:
I called Sprint tech support and they told me to bring it in to a Sprint Service Repair store (Use the store locator and find one that repairs). I told them the update did it. Luckily, they had a replacement in stock. They took it out of a refurbished looking box, but it seems to be brand new :D. I hate to cheat the system and I sort of feel guilty about it. But that guilt is overridden by the fact that I have a brand new Evo in my hands :D.

Ok Ive been searching for a while to see how to restore the stock icons in froyo sense? I dl and installed jb's new sense theme with icons and I would like to change my icons back to the standard froyo icons. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] nfcrockett:
If your'e wanting to change how the icons show up in your app drawer, you would have to go into each app's framework-res.apk and change the icons from there. If your wanting to change how the icons show up on your home screens, you could use BetterCut to create shortcuts that allow you to choose the icon.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jonnybueno:
if you re-install the rom youre using, it'll revert everything back to stock. I posted a few different versions with and without icons

When you lock it, and don't put it in your bag, does the device still power down? Or is it all the time when locked it powers down?

In regards to the battery, you may need a new battery, or, you may have some apps running that are very battery intensive.

sometimes it does, sometimes it doesnt. But its mainly when I have it in and enclosed are. Im thinking that maybe the device is over heating or something.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenity:
The best procedure for dealing with phones falling in liquid is to remove the battery immediately and let it dry completely.

What kills phones is not the liquid as such, but trying to use them while still wet, the current supplied by the battery causes what is known as 'dendritic growth' between the end caps and pins of the many surface mount components, and in the process can actually strip the metal off, leaving a greyish fuzzy deposit.

Plain water is actually not that bad, but sugary liquids, such as fruit juices, or carbonated drinks are the worst, followed by alcoholic drinks, beer, coffee, tea, etc.

If you do spill or drop you phone in anything other than water, you may still have problems, since the residues will be water soluble, and even condensation or high humidity may cause issues.

If it was my G1, ( I don't have one, yet...), then I would completely strip it, and wash everything except the lcd screen, in warm soapy water, then rinse in clean cold water, followed by at least 3 hours in an oven at 60-80 degrees Celcius to dry it off.

The above procedure may save your phone, but it's not a task for anyone not used to disassembling phones, be aware that it will void any warranty you have, and that it is possible to completely kill your phone this way, ( although leaving it with malibu in it will also do that eventually).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vermithrax:
I actually read a post, on lifehacker.com I believe, that stated you could submerse the phone into a bowl filled with dry (uncooked) rice... Do not know if it works, but I intend on trying it if my phone decides to take a bath... Could not hurt...

L8r
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkeee:
Open it up, take out the battery and stick it in a bowl of dry rice for a day or so. Don't try to use it while it's wet.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenity:
Dry rice will certainly help remove any water, it may leave some water soluble residues, such as sugars etc, which will become 'active' when exposed to a humid atmosphere, the dry rice solution is perfect for water, but may not be as good for other liquids.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
I think you would actually have to remove the entries in /system/customize/MNS/default.xml

I am not sure, but I think the customization settings in the file only get processed when you first install a rom. You could try removing the entries and rebooting the phone. Other than that, there may be a command to do an oobe setup again without having to reinstall the whole rom.
