So over in the Vibrant forum, it's been found out that the Vibrant supports ATT 3g. I was quite skeptical myself, but it seems to be quite true.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735461

Any word on whether the Captivate (which other than the case supposedly is identical hardware-wise to the Vibrant) is using the same chip, and if it thus supports T-Mobile 3g?
[Captivate General] rush_ad:
apparently Captivate does not support the 1700 frequency used by t-mobile for 3G. so as of now there is no way to use t-mobile 3G with the captivate

Before flashing any rom try reading the first few posts in the thread or if you're not sure of what you are about to flash, just search first and make things clear before you do anything.

How is the menu compared to HTC Hero/Desire since I had both?

Is it good for multimedia, as in how does it perform when watching movies, is it bright and clear, is the sound load?

When looking at photos, say a few mb in size, is it fast?

Lastly, is the loudspeaker loud or not very?
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
I would say it is great for watching multimedia it is bright and clear the best device i have seen for watching movies in the sunshine

The pictures do load fast, now the speaker i think could be a lot better but its OK over all it is great but i do think once 2.2 is on board it will blow you away :)

[Streak 5 General] Fazziebear:
I agree t he streak is great fir movies.headphonrs are great, speaker is worst phone yet and I can mis calls as it doesnt penetrate through loud background noise. However the screen great. Has 3 levels of brightness or can be adjusted automatically.

Battery life is great if you don't use it, rubbish if you use widgets. Ive stopped using widgets as I can get a full day even when listening tomusic and watching films.

Dell interface is good but id rather they kept it stock. If they had then I could use the home in portrait.

Right hand capacitive buttons are a pain I keep pressing them. Screen is hyper sensitive.

Keyboard is rubbish, I had an iphone before and it doesn't compare.i got on the swype beta and its much improved so change the keyboard as soon as you can.

Other than that its a great phone the size is perfect!

HTC tag removal in contact notes!

I just sat down on my break and created this code to strip out the HTC tags from the contact notes:

Sub HTCbGone()
Dim objContactsFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim objContacts As Outlook.Items
Dim objContact As Object
Dim StartPos As Integer
Dim EndPos As Integer
Dim iCount As Integer

' Specify with which contact folder to work
Set objContactsFolder = _
Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts)
Set objContacts = objContactsFolder.Items

iCount = 0

' Process the changes
For Each objContact In objContacts
If TypeName(objContact) = "ContactItem" Then
StartPos = InStr(objContact.Body, "<HTCData>")
EndPos = InStr(objContact.Body, "</HTCData>") + 10
If StartPos > 0 Then
If StartPos = 1 Then
If Len(EndPos) > EndPos + 1 Then
objContact.Body = Mid(objContact.Body, EndPos + 1)
Else
objContact.Body = ""
End If
Else
If Len(EndPos) > EndPos + 1 Then
objContact.Body = Left(objContact.Body, StartPos = 1)
Else
objContact.Body = Left(objContact.Body, StartPos - 1) & Mid(objContact.Body, EndPos + 1)
End If
End If
iCount = iCount + 1
objContact.Save

End If
End If
Next

' Display the results
MsgBox "Number of contacts updated:" & Str$(iCount), , _
"HTCbGone Finished"

' Clean up
Set objContact = Nothing
Set objContacts = Nothing
Set objContactsFolder = Nothing

End Sub

To run this, I opened Outlook. Selected Macro(s) from the Tools pull-down menu (or press [ALT+F8]). Created a new Macro called HTCbGone and pasted this code over everything. Then I just ran it.

Use at your own risk.

Happy scripting,

GinoRP
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] charly.root:
THANK YOU!!!! (I only type in all caps 2 or 3 times a year) If HTC was a person I would kick him in the teeth because of what they have done to my 500+ contacts in my Microsoft Exchange account.

How could the people at HTC justify code that puts notes on contacts only invisible to a HTC device and visible everywhere else?? How could they think that would annoy no one? Blows my effing mind.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patrickvh:
Kinda thanks but for me it did not work.

I made and run the macro.

Then I noticed some things got lost though!

Before I began I made a copy of the contacts folder in Outlook (recommended!).

I used the "modified" tab to see what contacts where changed when.

There was an extra URL in the note position for a contact which I put there earlier today.

After running the macro the Facebook data was gone but so was the URL.

Because it changed many contacts I did not bother to look further if other things gotten lost but rather just emptied the folder and restored from backup folder.

I am do work with DB and such but did not find anything special in the script which could explain my output.

Remove HTC Notes Using CSV

I was trying to figure out this very same thing and came across this thread in my searching. I also don't look Outlook, but I found a really simple, quick, and effective way to manually get rid of all those pesky HTC notes in under five minutes, for those that don't use Outlook:

1) Go into the contacts view in Gmail

2) Click the "More" dropdown box and select "Export"

3) Ensure that the "All Contacts" option is selected, choose the "Outlook CSV format," and export

4) After the file downloads, open it up in Excel (or your choice spreadsheet program)

5) Find the column labeled "Notes," and then just scroll down and clear all the cells with HTC data in them

6) Save the file, ensuring it is still in CSV format

7) Back in your Google Contact Manager, delete all your contacts

NOTE: Before deleting your contacts you will want to export a Google CSV file of all your contacts for backup. You can also the "More > Restore" feature to go back to a previous point in time if something goes wrong.​

8) Import the CSV file you saved in step 6

That's it! Your contact book should be restored to the exact way it was, minus the obnoxious HTC data. With 1,000+ contacts, I was able to do this in about two minutes. Again, be sure you have backups of your contacts or know how to use Google's Restore contacts feature in case something goes wrong, but this should work simply enough. Also, I just selected all the cells in the Notes column and cleared all their data, but if you have any notes saved for any of your contacts, you'll want to scroll through the spreadsheet file and be sure you only delete cells with HTC data.

I hope this helps!

You should also be aware that this method may cause you to lose your contacts photos, as well as any joined contacts you have in your Android address book. However, if you want to attach your contacts Facebook photos permanently to their Google contact entry (something HTC's method did not do), you should check out this tool; in just a couple clicks, you can have all those photos matched up again and restored:

[I can't post links yet, but just Google "Facebook Google Contact Sync" and click on the first return. It is a great little tool made by a dev called "Heart of Angel."]

In addition to the thanks button, I think you deserve a "thanks" post. This was so useful and in addition to removing that HTC garbage, I removed all the other data I found unnecessary.

Remove With a Simple Java Program, If you know Java

I know I am too late to reply this post but I actually searched a solution today and found this post where some one also had same issue.

Using gdata java api I wrote a small program to remove notes from all of your contacts. Maximum 800 (Congifurable) Here is the Java Program :

import java.net.URL;

import com.google.gdata.client.Query;
import com.google.gdata.client.contacts.ContactsService;
import com.google.gdata.data.PlainTextConstruct;
import com.google.gdata.data.TextContent;
import com.google.gdata.data.contacts.ContactEntry;
import com.google.gdata.data.contacts.ContactFeed;

/**
* This is a test template
*/

public class ContactNotesCleaner {

public static String feedUrlString = "https COLON SLASH SLASH www DOT google DOT com SLASH m8 SLASH feeds SLASH contacts SLASH default SLASH full";

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// Create a new Contacts service
ContactsService myService = new ContactsService(<Any App Name>);
myService.setUserCredentials(<Your Gmail Id>, <Your Password>);
updateAllContacts(myService);
}

public static void updateAllContacts(ContactsService myService) throws Exception {
URL feedUrl = new URL(feedUrlString);
Query myQuery = new Query(feedUrl);
myQuery.setMaxResults(800);
ContactFeed resultFeed = myService.query(myQuery, ContactFeed.class);
// Print the results
System.out.println(resultFeed.getTitle().getPlainText());
for (ContactEntry entry : resultFeed.getEntries()) {
if (entry.getContent() != null) {
updateNotesContent(myService, entry);
}
}
}

private static void updateNotesContent(ContactsService myService, ContactEntry entry) throws Exception {
TextContent textContent = (TextContent) entry.getContent();
if (textContent.getContent() != null) {
String plainText = textContent.getContent().getPlainText();
if (plainText != null && plainText.startsWith("<HTCData>")) {
String newPlainText = "";
textContent.setContent(new PlainTextConstruct(newPlainText.trim()));
entry.setContent(textContent);
URL editUrl = new URL(entry.getEditLink().getHref());
ContactEntry contactEntry = myService.update(editUrl, entry);
System.out.println(entry.getName().getFullName().getValue() + " " + "Updated: " + contactEntry.getUpdated().toString());
}
}
}
}

I have executed the above program and tested it. You need gdata lib files:

gdata-media-1.0.jar

gdata-client-meta-1.0.jar

gdata-contacts-3.0.jar

gdata-client-1.0.jar

gdata-contacts-meta-3.0.jar

gdata-core-1.0.jar

guava-14.0.1.jar

gdataplugin.jar -- I am not sure what this jar does, even if it is required or not.

This is a bit complex for some users to run a java program, this way you will not loose the chat invites and other important information of your contact.

Note: Even if I have tested above program 10 times, I would not give any guaranty it will work for you.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VSack:
I am looking for two things that I am not sure if they exist or not:

1. Is there any tool/hack/app/magic that will switch to a different wallpaper depending on which home screen you are on at the time?

2. Additionally, I don't see a way to create shortcuts on the home screen that will allow me to launch the app drawer, or to "jump" to a specific home screen.

Does anyone have any ideas if these are possible or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JerryGNYC:
If you're using the (stock) Sense launcher, I don't know of any way to customize the wallpaper on a per (home)screen basis. Not sure if any third-party launcher does. I do know that Launcher Pro lets you disable the wallpaper scrolling.

The little triangle on the bottom left of the curved bar (next to the "Phone" button) opens the app drawer.

The stock launcher, besides allowing you to use the HTC widgets, offers practically no customization.

I've been using Launcher Pro for the last week, and have been very happy with it (disclaimer: if you've updated Qik, your default launcher setting frequently goes into the bit bucket (at least with the updates before the latest, which I have not tried). ADW Launcher is also very good, but I was getting intermittent force closes with it.

Ah, yes. Forgot about that one... :confused:

Launcher Pro also does that, and you can also do a double-tap of the home button in Sense, for the same function.

ADW will let you assign that function to an up or down swipe on the screen, along with (or) some other choices.

Cheers,
