[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
I'm glad that someone sees my point. It makes much more sense to hang on to this phone untill something real good is out. Do we really need a phone that plays playstation games? Do we really need amoled or super amoled? No, we don't. We're being greedy. What's gonna make me neglect the slide is another phone that has a front and rear facing camera with a keyboard and a phone with ground breaking technology. The Slide is not bad. Unless your a developer then just hold onto the phone. Obviously most of us aren't developers because if we were we wouldn't of purchased the Slide. Unless your a developer that purchased the Slide to play around with it and you also have a Nexus 1, HD2, Galaxy S, etc. I feel everyones pain on not having froyo yet. Its sad because I just read an article about 10mins ago and I see that the Droid X will be getting froyo tomorrow and the Galaxy S will get it sometime late October. I've come to the conclusion that the Slide is getting the update right after every high end phone gets theirs. I guess after the Galaxy S then its our turn. If anyone want to read the article then check out ENGADGET. I can't post a link cause I am new (according to XDA).

By the way, I also had a G1 and this phone blows the doors off of the G1. My G1 was rooted and overclocked around 600mhz. The memory wasn't as good as the Slide so multitasking wasn't all that great and the battery and camera sucked horrible. The phone would always run hot even before overclocking.

You know for a fact :rolleyes: How could you ? Just saying tired of tmo lying. I am not one of those ppl who always needs the latest and greatest. In fact if they would have updated the behold 2 like they said they were I would still be using it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
You don't believe were getting froyo? the Slide will get it. I know it will. They won't leave us on Eclair 2.1. We're gonna get 2.2 and most likely that's where it ends. Most likely the reason its taking so long is not only because its a midrange device but also it has HTC SENSE UI. Everyone knows that a phone with Sense UI always takes even longer for an update. In the meanwhile, download some cool apps and multitask your life away. This phone does more than enough. Let's be patient guys. Let's laugh at people with the Iphone who have to use a case so that there calls won't drop. Let's laugh at people with Windows Mobile 6.5 who phone constantly freezes, let's laugh at blackberry for boring apps. No offense to anyone who owns these phones. I'm just trying to bring joy and open up your eyes. Realize what you have! For now let's enjoy free apps from "4shared". By the way it saves apps to memory so who needs froyo (I do). Lmao

We'll get it. Everyone knew it was going to take a while due to espresso.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] enculturation:
I meant sense...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mylostlonelysoul:
Yes, we will get it. They did announce mytouch phones will get Froyo(of course you cant keep to there word, but this isnt samsung), around the time Mytouch HD comes out we'll see it, it should be coming with 2.2 espresso so this means they have iy completed and can send it to the lesser mytouches, if not least we can port the HD to the slide and have 2.2 espresso(with a whole lot of work, but it be worth it). Release date was around Nov 3rd so mid-october late-november. Just give them time, if we had stock ui we would have had 2.2 by now but we chose to go with the sexy espresso so we have to just deal.

Until then lets worry about getting CM6 roms to perfection, maybe even port us a touchwhiz sample to mess with, no need to dwell on the facts you dont know yet. In 2 months time and we dont see froyo then lets come back and QQ some more and maybe we'll get it!

[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
I just wrote Engadget about helping to bring some excitement back to the Slide. Hopefully they'll do a story on the Slide for us and open up T-Mobiles eyes on giving us FROYO sooner. I'll keep you guys posted on whether or not I received a response from Engadget. Please feel free to write them letting them know how you feel about the SLIDE & it not getting FROYO love. It is important for more than 1 person (me) to write them so that they'll be persuaded to do the story. Hopefully Engadget can help us since they're well known. Tell them OuncE718 from XDA sent ya.

Ehh wont get us froyo faster, but to get more people to know about mytouch slide would be cool
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jester2kx:
I am all about getting more awareness....just concerned along with everyone else that this could just be a dangling carrot.

I as well went down the rooted path, but ended up going back to stock. I like sense, and i like the apps. And with no official word yay or nay gets me a little worried about if it will happen.

anything for a time frame is helpful...go sliders go! :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] dynamikd:
Agreed. I see people throwing the custom froyo roms on their phones and that's cool. I personally like being rooted with stock espresso and running an overclocked kernel. I am still up in the air about getting the mytouch hd, but I really believe that I will do that when it comes it. The determining factor for me holding onto this device would be the benefits that froyo will bring to this device. If its enough for me to overlook the benefits of getting the hd, then I'll stick with this device.

Really? Damn... Thought it was going to be for the whole mytouch line... Lame... I must destroy my source now... Lol
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Tzatlacael:
Yes, I hope that is the reason why they're taking so long to release froyo for the slide.

I wouldn't like to go from Eclair with Espresso to Froyo without it!

Developers have made it to port Froyo but is Senseless, Vanilla, without Espresso and that only makes me think that Eclair would end up being better than Froyo, but if the official release comes with Espresso UI, :D

That'll be coooool! And I hope developers [thanks y'all] make it a rom so the users who are rooted can enjoy it too.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
Not to complain, but this really sucks. According to www.engadget.com the Nexus One should receive Gingerbread 2.3 in a few days. A lot of phones still haven't even received the promised Eclair 2.1 or Froyo 2.2 update and already Gingerbread is going to be released in a few days. I hope a Nexus Two comes out with a front facing camera and a 4g radio cause I will definitely be upgrading.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] Ace42:
The Mytouch is no longer "falling behind" it has already dropped out of the race...Maybe Htc will cancel 2.2, and go straight for 2.3...That would be the better thing to do, but android is growing up so quickly. 2.2 isn't even that old and now we have 2.3.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
You're definitely right about Android growing fast and wrong at the sametime if you think T-Mobile is gonna just jump and give us Gingerbread. Just like any other carrier, T-Mobile wants you to continue buying the new phones so that they can continue to make sales. I foresee us getting Gingerbread (if we ever will) at the end of next year and I'm honestly being serious.

Trillia have released thier multi-protocol IM client for Android. Runs in 1.6 too...Not available in the market, can be downloaded from here :cool:

The app will work with AIM, Facebook Chat, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, Jabber, WLM, and MySpaceIM, and because it natively supports Android 1.6, it will work with the original Android handset G1. People with phones running more recent versions will receive better resolution graphics, according to the company. Current Trillian users will be able to automatically load their accounts on the phone using Trillian's Astra syncing service.

Some of the app's more esoteric features include "buzzing" your friends as a way to demand attention from them and sharing photos via IM. The app also offers a smooth transition to landscape mode, and in hands-on tests worked just as well with a slide-out keyboard as it did with the soft keyboard.

Quoted from CNET.

[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
So i just spent over an hour on the phone trying to order the streak with the student discount. The rep stated it would be the full price $550 after tax came to $590 something, then an additional $299.99 for the two year contract AND an additional $250 for at&t activation...

I just wanted the damn phone by upgrading my device which would make it $299.99 and the student discount. Would of done it online but when i try to get it from dell.com/epp and click on the streak, there is no option to add it to cart or buy device or whatever.

Anyone know the best way to get it with the student discount without calling india and getting someone that barely speaks english and doesn't know the meaning of "subsidy"?

Have a look at GPS Test.

It's used widely by the Galaxy S community.

[Captivate General] flashman2002:
What would start causing this to happen?

I am very familiar with the process. Rooted, sideloading for apps is all done. I have flashed my device with JM2, JH2, and the 1.2 OC. Now when I try to flash it doesn't work. I tried last night with no luck. I decided to master clear the device since I was having issues and wanted to start back with a fresh device. Now after trying to flash the JH3 from JF6 with Unleash the beast it wont work.

I also tried flashing with one click root, and superrooter from a fresh Odin one click. Usb debugging is enabled, Odin opened and then get into download mode. So my process from when it would work is now not working haha? So beyond my confusion of what I might be forgetting can anyone think of something that might help? I didn't want to put this in the dev section since there is nothing specifically made up for odin 3, only odin one click restore.
[Captivate General] designgears:
Your drivers are messed up... grab the ones from the odin thread and reinstall with the phone plugged in and in download mode.
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Reloaded the drivers and still get the message. Any other suggestions would be helpful.
[Captivate General] commander2k:
Try un-selecting the other options? (auto reboot/time)

I had a similar error message when the "repartition" was selected. Just an idea...
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Gave that a shot but no luck :(

I am almost resigned to the fact I might be stuck with JF6 until Froyo gets pushed out OTA (if/when that happens). I just can't believe it has me this stumped.

Can busybox, the older superuser, anything like that cause this issue? When I wiped back to stock I loaded Unleash the beast because I prefer the older superuser (ninja guy). When I first got my phone I did the adb code for sideloading after doing one click root. That process isn't different from what the guys that made the UTB and Superrooter update.zip files is it?

Well tried running Odin as an administrator and that didn't work haha. Worth a shot.
[Captivate General] commander2k:
I dont really know if that could be the cause or not. Im actually having trouble wiping all the data from my phone (I have my own thread, but it could be related). I used Odin 1 click, I used the regular Odin and did everything manually, tried master reset, and also did a factory data reset. Tons of data still on my phone, though. I was contributing it to titanium backup, but it may be things installed from super rooter
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Anyone else have an idea that I might try?

Now even Odin one click comes up with this message??? I am really baffled with this situation.

Update: Got Odin one click to work again, I wiped my user data through clockwork. After this reloads I am going to try and do sideloading via the adb codes rather then using UTB or superrooter to see if that makes a difference for me. Still could use any suggestion on what else people have tried in this situation, if you have been in this before.

Sweet life
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Still stumped by this issue if anyone has any help for me. Also could this be moved to the new Q&A section. Thanks.
[Captivate General] jhernand1102:
Do you use the Kies program and if so has it ran an update lately, I had it on my Win7 laptop and when it ran the software update it totally hosed up my drivers and I could not connect to my phone anymore... I had to uninstall Kies and remove all my drivers and then reboot my laptop then I only reinstalled the Samsung drivers and now I can connect again. I won't be using Kies anymore..Anyways I thought I would share my experience in case it might help you..
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
I haven't used kies since I first got the phone to put contacts in. But I just tried again to give it a whirl and got it to load the kernel. Hell if I know why it worked today compared to before hahaha.

[XPERIA X10 General] corruptfate:
I got directly from a Rogers store... anyways it happens near the 2 top corners on the x10 for me. That part is now grey instead of white...
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
You mean the top front two corners? On my case, they are worn out, but on the phone itself, nothing. The chrome seems like it's cheap and is gone completely where I dropped the phone on the bottom, but other than that, no changes at all.

I can't think of anything except if you wear incredibly tight jeans and you're constantly inserting and removing it from your pockets. That seems to be how my case is getting worn out, heh.
[XPERIA X10 General] vrs2610:
Get a gel silicone case. Flexible and good to grip and hold like a soft gel case, with the protection and durability of a hard case. only 10$

also i heard that the chrome is actually plastic, can anyone confirm this. I remember reading it somewhere in one of those x10 disassemble threads.
[XPERIA X10 General] black_math:
I've had the x10 since release in the UK. It's my main phone, I don't use a case and am not that careful (although haven't dropped it on anything hard yet). I wear jeans all the time and there is no wear on the corners at all.

Looking closely at the phone, I think it's moulded black plastic and so I doubt it can get discoloured. The chrome I know can get chipped (someone on ebay sold me an x10 they had dropped, labelled as new, had to return for refund), so be careful with that. However, it hasn't worn down or anything on my phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] corruptfate:
It's not the Chrome part, its the corners on the front and it is turning grey

Ok, I just happened to notice they finally have the Slider case for the Vibrant in The SGP Store.

Yesterday they still weren't up yet.

Remember, this is for the Vibrant and not just another i9000 case. :D

Here is the link:

http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_29

I'm picking one up ASAP!

EDIT 9/2/2010: Apparently The company has run into some production problems.

That is why the cases have been delayed.

The entries have since been removed from their website.

[Vibrant Accessories] scoochv:
Actually, T-Mobile does offer a similar case to the Slide cases mentioned, and only in the magenta color (so far, anyway).

Just for kicks, I tried it on my phone, but the plastic just seems cheap and it doesn't feel all that secure where the parts join. I would hope that the SGP ones are better quality than the no-name ones T-Mobile offers.
