Soooo very true ...

Not that most of us, hate MACs , but a lot of us do hate "fan boys", tell you a little story ..

Had a guy that I know, is a big Mac head ...

I built a PC in an old PowerMac case, installed version of OSX(hackintosh), he used the machine for almost a week before he stumbled on some of the stuff that tells you it is a Hackintosh. Now for the first part of the week he was praising the MAC, saying how good the hardware was, (I had explained that the cd drive was broken, so he was using a external , so he did not notice the internal cd drive was missing), claimed how fast it was, sooo much better than a PC. BUT, when he found out it was a PC , it was suddenly CRAP, it sucked, was nothing like a MAC.

Now that is a "fan boy", they can't tell you the real reason they like it better, "IT JUST IS", I have a Hackintosh running, I use from time to time, can't say the UI is soooo superior to Windows 7, hell anything designed with a one button mouse in mind can't be that great.

So to each their own, why does one like Ford over Chevy, it is a never ending battle ..

But to "drink the Kool-Aid" , and just buy into it because it looks pretty or the Ads are cool, does not make you an expert on what the best is ....
[Off-topic] rorytmeadows:
Definitely. Such a great story.

I hate when people that customize their background on myspace think they are programmers. I hate when people that know where the black & white mode on their digital cameras think they are photographers. And I hate when people buy Macs and think they are technological geniuses.
[Off-topic] :
Forgot to add to my story the reason the guy borrowed that machine was , his Mac was in the shop, and since ONLY Apple could repair it, was gonna take like 2 weeks ...

1. How many people actually try to resell their computers?

2. For offices, I think cost plays a much bigger role, not to mention compatibility. Windows is already embedded in most companies and it is much cheaper to replace pc's as they break, then to start over with macs.
[Off-topic] nrfitchett4:
how true is this?!?

I mean, if god forbid my dvd drive fails on my pc because I burned 4k discs on it, 25.00 gets me another oem dvd burner on newegg.

If my harddrive or motherboard fails on my 10 year old dell, replace what is broken.

How do you replace the memory on a mac laptop? Is it even possible?
[Off-topic] :
Yeah no kidding, I have a friend that works for an "Authorized" Apple repair center, this guy brings in a Mac, with a 500gb sata drive with the apple logo on it, not sure which model he said it was, and it was like $300 from Apple, the same model of drive without the "Logo" was $79 from New Egg.

The machine was out of warranty, but the guy HAD TO HAVE the one with the logo. Craaaazzzzyyyy ....
[Off-topic] katiepea:
I build hackintoshs for a living in hollywood. I can build the entry level mac pro with identical specs for $700, including 22"lcd. The entry level mac pro is $2400 without a display, same specs and parts. fanboys don't understand that apple uses the almost same parts as other people now that they're using intel.

Blindly following anything is dangerous. I've owned 2 iphones, macbooks, imacs, all of it. When apple showed their hand with the app store policies	I bailed.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Shiny_Lucario:
Hello, recently my wifi has been acting up. Sometimes it will say it is connected to my wifi network but no web pages or anything work. It happens after I leave my phone in standby for a while, and it will usually start working after restarting my wifi. After I restart wifi so many times it will disconnect even when it's not in standby (and more often) and then eventually the wifi switch on my home screen stops working.

I'm running Android 2.2 Froyo Cyanogen Mod 6 RC2 FRF84B using the jdlfg 2.6.32.9 overclock 300 mhz+1200 MHz kernal.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] jahnile:
ok sounds like there could be two reason for this, either the rom or your router. First make sure you have the latest radio for your phone. If possible try a different rom or a nanadroid restore. on to the router, do you have other wireless devices in your home? Are you experiencing this issue on any other device? You may want to try connecting your phone to a different wifi connection just for testing. connect to any available open connection and test to see if the phone does the same thing on a different wifi connection. Now if it does then you know it's most likely an issue with your phone. if that's the case you would want to focus on the rom and or your radio.

If you do not have the same issue after connecting to a different wifi connection then it's not the phone but your home network. You will need to trouble shoot your router, good luck
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Shiny_Lucario:
I'm fairly sure it isn't my rom, although I did only notice it when I started wifi tethering on 2.2 (I never tried it on Eclair though, I only decided to root when I heard Froyo had been leaked). I'm on Cyanogen (I used to be on the stock froyo) and I still get the same problem, I also updated my baseband and I still get the same problem. As for my router I doubt it, my laptop never seems to disconnect along with my wii and any xbox my friends bring over. My sister's Droid also doesn't seem (emphasis on seem, she's not a power user or anything of the sort and I'm not even sure if she has her phone on wifi half of the time, and neither is she, the last time I checked it was connected though) have any problems (she just has a stock Droid, nothing special).

I've tried a newer version of Froyo (I don't have the latest build though atm, but that's because Cyanogen doesn't support it yet).

Does the Droid connect to wifi in any special way that other devices don't? If so then my router might still be a suspect, as I admit the firmware it's running on is glitchy (it actually worked better before I updated it (I was trying to get some remote router switch on my PC to work with it)).

Edit: I discovered recently that no other wifi networks come up when wifi bugs out, although it seems to only happen sometimes.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Shiny_Lucario:
Fixed the problem, apparently it's caused by a glitch in the settings, when you change the wifi sleep mode settings so that it doesn't sleep after idling for so long the phone assumes it's been changed but it doesn't actually change. Downloading WifiPowerSavingOff fixed it.
[EVO 4G General] teknikk7:
Has anyone tested the wiiMote connect aps after the *unofficial* 2.2 update? My understanding was HTC altered the bluetooth stack in 2.1 which was why it never worked.

thx!
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
It won't work with any ROM that has Sense. Get over it.
[EVO 4G General] SilverZero:
I really don't know, but what does Sense have to do with it? Couldn't a new BT stack be put in to a Sense ROM?
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
No. There was just a topic about this the other day...
[HD2 General] johnnyham89:
Sorry, but I've searched the site and only came up with comparisons between the 2 with the HD2 on WM. I recently sold my Iphone 3GS to go over to a phone with an Android OS and now I am split between the 2 especially that you can flash the HD2 with Android. I know that Android on the HD2 isn't perfect but I see that it is making progress fast! It's obvious that the HD2 isn't the smallest phone so would you say coming from a 3GS that I wouldn't notice that much of a difference in size? Considering that the difference in price is at least $150 I would really like yalls opinion. Thanks guys!
[HD2 General] sumflipnol:
It depends where you are. The Nexus One is no longer being sold by Google in the USA. This most likely means you won't get support from them (even if they say you will). However, you could always got support from XDA.

Also, the Nexus One can be considered 'old'. There are other Android devices out there that are capable of out-performing the N1. So, I don't know why you would want the N1 in particular.:confused:

The HD2's Android port is very fast. They're actually hoping to finish a NAND boot around September.

It also depends what you're looking for in a device, though. If you really want to tweak, it's WM, ftw!:D
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
If you want to only use android as your main os, you would be better off getting a native android phone. The HD2 will most likely always have some issues running android.... at least for a while. You may want to look into some of the newer android phones like the EVO, the DroidX or the Samsung Galaxy. Those or the Nexus will run android much more stabily and have better battery life running android.

If you want the ability to run both android and winmo, then HD2 is the obvious choice.
[HD2 General] johnnyham89:
Thanks guys! I just ordered my HD2, mainly because of the price difference. Now just to get Android on it!

[General Questions and Answers] Longstreet:
Hello all. New owner of an HTC Pure, and really liking it. This is my first time with a converged device (well, I had a BB Pearl, but it wasn't on a data plan) and while I'm impressed with all it can do, I'm a little confused. And of course, I like to tinker...

I'm trying to learn my way around things. I like the look of TouchFlo3D, but would like to add some functionality to it, for example, adding Tasks to the Home Screen, or making the Calendar screen more informative. But that's probably a bit down the road, and I'd like to understand How Things Work before monkeying around too much.

A few general questions, if I may.

1. What is a shell? From looking around, it appears a shell is an app that lets you interface with the OS. TouchFlo is a shell, right? It actually overlays the WinMo shell, is that correct? So when I use TF3D, I'm using one shell to tell another shell to issue instructions to the OS?

Remembering back to my Palm days, if any of you are familiar with zLauncher, would it be analogous?

2. Is there a way to mod the TF3D shell, to make it more useable? Or is it easier to download something like SPB. I really like TouchFlo, but would switch if it was necessary, or desirable. But wouldn't loading another shell take up more space and computing power on my phone?

3. I've seen the directions about adding a custom city to the weather tab using Manila. What exactly is Manila, and would I need it to make any mods?

4. I've noticed that when I check the Task Manager on my phone, after it's been on, the memory used goes up. For instance, when I turn the phone on, it's usually in the mid to high 50's. After a few hours, it will be in the 70's or even 80's. What's going on? Is this kind of like RAM creep that one experiences with PC's? So is it necessary to reset the phone occasionally to "clean things out", like rebooting a PC that's been on for quite a while?

5. Flashing a ROM. Are you actually loading a new OS into the read-only memory of the phone? What are the advantages/disadvantages of this?

Eventually, I'd like to get fairly deep into this (getting rid of all the AT&T bloat is pretty high on the "to-do" list), but like I said, I'm still learning my way around and would really like to get a firm handle on the basics. I appreciate any help y'all can give me.

[Captivate General] jahnile:
The Facebook app is not that polish. On android 2.1 there is no push notification as noted. I believe 2.2 has this option. Once Facebook updates the app for 2.2 it should include that feature.

What ROM do YOU use and WHY?

I start!

Im using Cronos 2.1.2 because its a fast ROM with those features I need and it got sense UI.

Cronos Droid 2.1.2 because it is fast, has sense, responsive, Feeyo is always coming out with updates and it rocks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreaswar:
I think he is leading in all versions whether sense or Froyo and now even Vanilla
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odin13:
there are a couple of roms i've tried and some i really like...

- modaco repack + oc kernel by behnaam = stable, smooth, good battery life

- kimera 2.1 = super smooth, stable + excellent battery

haven't tried any of the Villain stuff so can't really say anything about their roms...

currently i'm back on Cronos 2.1 with latest kernel; the battery really is excellent ( imho even better then before ) all works really well and smooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MentalDeath:
I think so but I want to try out his new AOSP Eclair but if I am going for Eclair I was thinking about CMH, so I can't decide on which. =\
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liljom:
Cronos 2.1.2 : )

Has Sense and still fast. Of course the ROM I use has to be stable. And it has the 2.1 features, otherwise I would use SenseHero 1.6 :D that is the best 1.5 ROM for Hero

Ohh... and Feeyo made a 730Mhz step for me; overclock is an important feature
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mljjlm:
FroydVillain: Because FroYo has so many features that Eclair is missing. And the CM-team (lox) is rather slow to update (I don't count the nightlies in, as they are missing a lot of work)

And now sense isn't on my phone, my battery will last a day longer ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misiek_ud:
Kimera 2.1. I try a lot of ROMs but this one is the best one with Sense UI. Batery life is incredible, it's fastest and smoother 2.1 ROM ever made.

FC = 0!

This is top ROM! ;)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lundefugl:
I 'basically' use Cronos 2.1.2 as it is the fastest, smoothest, most stable and least battery hungry 2.1 ROM with Sense. It runs superb with JIT and overclocking.

When I say 'basically' I mean that I have done some tweaks to it myself in order to get FriendStream working and the patched Rosie that allows screen-rearranging in pich-zoomed overview, and have done lots of trimming to it to get rid of stuff that I don't want/need/use to save some memory.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aamadorj:
Good luck with this project!

I like your goals for this project, in particular "Release the most stable version of HTC Messaging Client". Good luck, to both of you.

I can't wait for the first CAB to be released!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJGonzo:
Why did you include Manila Message 2016 EXT? Thats not compatible with other Sense 2.5 versions... Is it?

EDIT: I cooked it in my ROM but did not include the Manila Message EXT. It works nicely. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] G-ThGraf:
We included the 2017 because HTC Messing Client doesn't works with an old Manila Message....

@aaamador, i got many bugs with my cabs without good reason... Really strange!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] G-ThGraf:
Yeah sure! It works also with Microsoft Messaging application :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AngelDeath:
There is a reason for that to be included, Feature Listing coming soon, Sorry have been away for the past day 1/2. But will get started filling in the details tomorrow. Trust US, cook it, it will work, we are living proof, we dont release something we havent tested or use. All answers will be provided soon!

The old Manila Message will work the the EXT, but it will not provide you with a stable build. I found this solution and it has made the messaging system VERY stable.

@aaamador, I will be looking into the Cab problem that G-ThGraf is having, but as I said, if you have installed a cab already, chances are you wont be able to install another version type over it, the phone for some reason prevent this. I will be trying different things to get the current release of the cab working, and possibly finding a way to overwrite prior versions, but no guarantee on that. Please bare with us as we are trying to get into a groove since teaming up.

So, are you saying that with your EXT we don't need to include the HTC Message package or what? Are there any modifications we need for CDMA networks. I assume that MMS isn't working on networks like Sprint still, so can I use arcsoft for that along with this messaging client?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] G-ThGraf:
When u use these EXT:

Disale HTC Message... Enable HTC Messaging... Disable Manila Message... Enable the newer (including in .zip)

MMS=> We will release all settings for Sprint and T-Mo later... So not sure it's works now... (can't test it) i live in france :D

Is the manila message in the zip cfc compressed or not? I highly doubt that MMS is working with Sprint, so hopefully arcsoft plays nicely with this app.
