[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] velcrobandits:
I agree with the dude above. As far as I know, the new Samsung is the highest spec'd t-mob android phone at the moment but I just don't want to mess around with Samsung. Desire was supposed to be an amazing phone but for some reason w/ similar hardware its benchmarks such. HTC is just spewing out phones so its hard to keep track. Unfortunately, the 1ghz processors on the Droids outperform the HD2, esp. in regards to 3d performance. So yeah, fingers crossed for dual core snapdragon (which has been around for a while actually in some form).

Its sort of odd that you find the hd2 acceptable and not the evo. I played with my friends evo and its the most responsive android phone i've seen. I played with an original Droid and hated it for a lot of reasons besides performance. I don't know how reliable this is, but the benchmarks I ran on mattc's 1.5 beat out every phone besides droid (fairly sure the first droid, EVO was not included in list). Darkstone's page has his build beating out every phone except for Nexus with 2.2. Although its looking like the hd2 is a serious contender, its def not at the top. If I had the choice, I would prob get a native android phone.

the processors dont out perform the snapdragon the gpus do
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] maximr:
Eco is indeed nice except for a couple of things: it's thick and it has WiMax, which is sunsetting in favor of LTE.

Samsung uses Hummingbird and not Snapdragon - I assume those are similar in performance?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] maximr:
X is way too big, Droid 2 isn't much different from the original Droid - both lack the polish of HTC Sense and additional software. EVO is perfect, but too thick.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Shawn_230:
What is with the constant need to make these threads comparing the HD2 and other Android devices? In fact, why is there the need to compare any device with similar hardware specs? They all have obvious pros and cons.

The HD2 does have its benefits... for one there is no real 4.3" Android device on GSM, if you're outside the US you can't buy either the EVO or the Droid X so Android on the HD2 is your best best for a big screen Android (discounting the Dell Streak, way too big).

Even if you can purchase the EVO or the Droid X the HD2 still has something going for it. There are a few 4.3" phones on the market now but the HD2 is by far the sexiest and least ridiculous looking, even compared to its brother the EVO the HD2 is noticeably less bulky looking and more svelte.

But then again the EVO 4G and Droid X both have specs the HD2 doesn't, like a slightly higher resolution screen on the Droid X and 4G/HDMI out on the EVO 4G. They also both run Android natively which the HD2 doesn't. I have every confidence in the guys working on Android for the HD2 but I think being realistic the HD2 can come very close but not be perfect at running Android because it wasn't designed for it initially.

So yeah, I don't see the need to get all fanboy-ish and start shouting how awesome the HD2 is. It depends on the situation... I don't live in the US so I didn't have access to the other big screen Android devices, and I also wasn't sure I would love Android or just like it so I wanted the ability to revert back to WM if I wanted to. That coupled with the cheap price of the HD2 compared to other Snapdragon devices running Android natively made the HD2 the best choice for me.

But I'm not going to claim the HD2 is perfect at running Android or even the best of all the current phones... they all have pros and cons. If the HD2 had native Android with every last function working then I probably would say it was the perfect Android device. Some have slightly higher specs and some have fancy screen technologies the HD2 misses out on, but I really love the 4.3" screen and the HD2 seems like the nicest hardware package offering that size screen.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] cieryll:
i tried rooting my x10 mini last night using the UniversalAndroot and removing some default apps using titanium backup* root..

i forget what apk file i uninstall last night,that caused my Market,gmail and data synchro crashed.

The icons are still in the menu,but i just cant used it. it keeps on forcing to close.

And now i dont have the idea of regaining it.

what i did,was doing the factory reset last night.

When i also forget or dont know how to back up my downloaded applications..like the astro file manager,which is very important tool for me to access my memory card.

But sad to say, after doing the factory reset/hard reset... same issues..cant access the Market.which where i can only download the FILE MANAGER..and some important tools.

PLS guys need your help so bad. I d0nt even have the simplest tool which was the BFT..i also need that.

Why i need the FILE manager? its the only option i know where i can push my apk.file to sd card root and install it manually. without using the MARKET.

NEWBIE here.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echoside:
I've been reading alot and have seen alot of people saying they get 15+ hours without charging with heavy usage. I personally have not broke 10 hours. What do you guys/girls consider heavy usage?

Heavy usage in my eyes and what I do is basically live on my phone. Constantly texting, reading XDA checking out apps, messing with my home screen, and occasionaly ( not everyday) remote into computers for work when I am driving out to a clients. The RDP makes sense of the **edit** battery. I also never turn off 4g.

And before the crying train comes im not asking how to get better battery life. I don't even have to search to find topics about that there are so many.

Thanks!

**Sorry about the language typed out of habit**
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rocklee99:
well, i would agree with most of what u explained to be "heavy", i get up to 60 hours with light use, now thats just a few texts and messing with apps and web occasionally and maybe a few calls, but heavy i would guess to be calling alot, maybe like 10 + calls, constantly texting, web or games, and 4g is also a killer, but idk how badly
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surrealmethod:
I think I use my phone like god mode cheat enabled with full ammo... 10 plus calls? More like at least 3 hours a day on the phone plus constant pandora, emails, texts, and web. I don't use gps often and no 4g in miami yet but its close.

Based on my experience..if I can get 8 hours of use, then I'm good. But I'm sure I can pull 20 hours if I baby it, but why?

[Legend General] kyleh0000:
Hi All,

I just have a few quick questions about the legend, forgive me if they are a bit silly as i dont have a legend (yet)

The reason im posting here is because i recently ordered my Legend over the internet except there has been a delay in shipping. Basicly I have been told that my phone is part of a brand new batch that just got imported to Australia, these phones are locked to VodaPhone and the website i got it from is waiting for vodaphone to register these phones on there website for them to get the unlock code to put into the phones. They have said they are happy to ship it now its just it wont be unlocked.

So my question if i debrand my phone, will that also unlock the phone to be used with any network? im currently with 3 mobile

I was going to follow this guide here in these forums, I cant post the link cause im only a jr forums member but if u look in the Legend forums for [HOWTO] debrand your Legend ;) im sure you will find it

Also if this doesnt unlock the phone is there another way to unlock the phone? I was thinking maybe rooting it and putting a Froyo ROM on it but i still wasnt sure if this would allow me to use my 3 sim in it.

All of the above i was planing to do anyway, as im sure everyone is im still waiting for the office 2.2 rom from HTC

Thanks in advanced for you help!

this forums has been very usefull and conviced me to get the phone in the first place :)
[Legend General] ilos:
bad section...

pls post in général part of the forum not in dev...

btw no unlock simcard methode atm
[Legend General] kyleh0000:
fair enough i guess that answers most of my questions then, oh well guess ill just have to wait for vodafone to do their thing

[Off-topic] Original Android <3ers!:
I'm on the team and all, but I still need to get a little bit cooler with some more tammates (haters now-a-days. Used to be so easy when M_T_M and Mr Clown were kids. Just bop them on the head with a stick :D) I'm gonna go early tomorrow to talk to the coaches and get my pads (back in M_T_M and Mr Clown's day, tey had to get these on their own. The King of the Cave didn't provide it.) and all. Got my cleats, gloves, cup, compressions shorts, and mouth guard.

People, make sure you get your kids into sports when their young so when their older, they have a TIGHT grip on it man. This sucks.

Wish me luck.

I have been having the same problem as well, I am using the ROM by Ieftm... I hope someone can figure out how to solve this problem, it's becoming really annoying... Tried fix permissions in both rom manager and spareparts but it didn't seem to solve the problem...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Did either of you wipe before "upgrading"?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kartikb:
yup, I always do a full wipe before flashing any rom... still have had this issue for a while now...

yup, as always. tried all available froyo with sense rom in this forum and all have the same issue. DEV, fix please...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Melach:
This happens on the stock ROM too, fixed it on mine by removing all feeds from the news app and re-adding them (export, delete all, import).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kartikb:
tried that, didn't help... any other suggestions?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TieT:
+1 have the same issue
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Melach:
Try clearing your feeds and adding one at a time, checking if the problem occurs on each addition. I'm wondering if it might be some corruption in the feeds causing it. If its beyond that then it pretty much had to be a coding bug (which seems more likely anyway).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kartikb:
I've only got engadget on my feed and when i scroll down through the widget, it works fine. It's the scrolling back up when it force closes htc sense.

Try adding another long feed and removing eng, see if you have the same problem.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willy792003:

Yeah same problem here, happens with any feed, also after removing and re-adding.

Did anybody solve the problem? How?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willy792003:
well, i like the pictures. so it looks like the newswidget.apk needs to be modified so it won't crash on certain pictures.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonnytech:
yeh i prefer to have the pictures within news also.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonnytech:
just to add only does it on engadget for me rest of the rss feeds are fine

Here's a link from engadget showcasing the upcoming games for WP7. Gotta say some of them look really nice + avatar integration looks fantastic.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
I was worried that the xbox hub would be watered down for launch since every time the phone has been demoed they've always said that xbox tile is in construction. But they had some really polished features in there.

And 60 launch titles is fairly substantial, along with some major titles. Castlevania, Halo: Waypoint (don't think this is a game), Star Wars, Crackdown, and Guitar Hero.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Looks nice. Can't wait until they add in real time multi player action, just like on the console.

[Windows Phone 7 General] IM0001:
The little comercial for it at the bottom looks fantastic as well. Some of those games look like a lot of fun on a phone. I continue to hope they port over many more from Xbox Arcade (Really want PvZ, Greed Corp, Worms, and others).

Overall the phone is looking like a multimedia power house. Zune, Netflix, XBLive, and (for me) Sprint 4G. Very awesome indeed.

[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
I was saying that because he said it was the only "Xbox Live Arcade game" you needed not wp7 game, but i didnt read what he was replying to my bad...anyways no i couldnt imagine playing MvC2 on a phone & enjoying myself plus without real multiplayer on wp7 i cant see much reason to play it anyway even if they could figure out a good control scheme

Shadow complex would be interesting though. If I had that and geometry wars I'd be satisfied.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Gave Hello Rocket a go and it's a worthy game. Simple, non frustrating and casual time-passer. Maybe it gets tougher later in the game, but the first part suggests a simple game.

Looks like Monster Up and Burn it All is equally as simple and fun. If you like a quality jump game...I rarely do...Monster Up seems to fill the need.

I just switched over to Adnroid from WM and I'm having issues with the sync on my Evo. I've searched the forums, Google, PPC and no luck on finding an explanation that gives me a good basis of knowledge. What I'm basically confused about is syncing my phone, PC and GMail accounts. I want to have them all sync together and update each other so if one gets updated, so do the rest. Seems I can't have my Evo sync both Gmail contacts, though. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

When you go into your sync setting and click on each account do you have the boxes checked for that account? I heard there where some issues going on with that as well though, do a search over at the htc community forums, that's where I heard about some issues and resolutions to the matter.

I've recently been seeing a strange mouse icon whenever I close down an app that I've been using for a while, NFS Shift, NOVA. After exiting the app, I'll get a black screen and a time white mouse pointer icon in the top left screen before returning to the home screen.

[Touch GSM General] dsixda:
Please read the the stickies. You likely flashed an Elf ROM on an Elfin, which may likely have resulted in a brick. Only way to fix is to use the shipped ROM from O2 Nova, or the gold card method.

Since the Wiki page is currently down, the page for gold card method is not viewable.
