Im not a winmo fanboy & only reason people are getting upset is because they want one & want to know when they will be able to get one...you coming here saying you know its not coming on sprint or verizon until 2011 without saying how you know this or where the info is coming from doesnt help...nobody needs your guesses

and saying right now its only launching on at&t doesnt tell me anything..ok its launches on at&t first, but that doesnt tell me when it will come to t-mobile, sprint, or verizon...It could be a week later or a month later who knows & for that matter we dont even know the launch date for at&t

so like I said do you know somebody in verizon also or are you just talking out of your ass? do you know somebody in at&t to know that they have a 2010 exclusive or are you talking out of your ass?

Im gonna go out on a limb and say your talking out of your ass since all you ever say is its not coming, but not how you know this...anybody can sit back and claim something then just say wait & see and hope they are right

People are asking how do you know & all your saying basically is just trust me...sorry i dont trust you and even if you said its launching on sprint & verizon a week after at&t then i would still want to know how you know this & i would still think your talking out of your ass if you had the same replies :p

Dude come on.. lol who really cares.. why Be all negative!!!! I just looked through all your posts etc.. U gotta chip on your shoulder or what?

Anyway to me wm7 will be a lost cause.. just for going the apple route!!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
The guy has no clue. He just hates WP7 (and seemingly everything else) and wants to make it seem worse.
[Windows Phone 7 General] malatesta:
Sprint was the first to launch Windows Mobile 5 with the PPC-6700. not T-Mobile. It was also the first 3G Windows Mobile smartphone. AT&T also beat T-Mobile with a Pocket PC Phone Edition 2003 upgrade.

Sprint was the first with Windows Mobile 6.1 (Treo 800w).

Sprint got Android "a year later" *by choice*, not because they were CDMA. They publicly stated that:

"We can, when the timing's right, pull the trigger. We've just got to make sure our customers are saying, 'If you had a phone like this, man, I would really be more interested in Sprint because of it. You want to go out with a bang, because you believe that your investment is one that's going to generate a lot of return with customers -- new customers."

US Cellular (CDMA) launched their Touch Pro 2 with WM6.5, tying AT&T (GSM) for launch (T-Mobile, Verizon and Sprint all launched with WM6.1; T-Mobile launched with a crappy USB headset jack, all others were 3.5mm).

So sorry, but your analysis was way too simple and overlooked many nuances. There's no clear pattern outside of things have gotten very competitive and releases are very near each other (months, not years).

Nothing to do with GSM vs CDMA. That was true of yesteryear, not today. If Sprint is holding out, it's by choice, like Android--they may be waiting on newer hardware (including 4G), or may want to see how it does first before fully committing.

See my above about Sprint and Android. It was by their choice.

All I can tell people is wait till October 11th in NYC at Microsoft's Open House event. There, we'll see the US carriers and what they plan to offer and I'm sure we'll see Sprint there. And re-read that quote from Sprint above about Android--should be telling about their ideas on new phone OS launches.

BTW, FCC docs tell you nothing. There can be confidentiality requests made that are valid to after the phone's release. Palm is notorious for this as it keeps things under wraps.

Last year in NYC (MS Open House), no one knew about the Sprint Samsung Intrepid (WM6.5), totally came out of no where and yet there it was, working and functional. It was released a few weeks later.

Finally, this is what Sprint said in Feb regarding WP7 (Verizon said nothing):
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
Far from being indisputable proof but...

Supposedly a LG 4G phone.

[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
good my friend has been asking me everyday whether there is a sprint wp7 device coming...

the htc launch event was a tease and nothing but android filled (but a landscape htc sense is nice but the processor speed...not so much)

but the idea of finally a htc sense landscape iteration for android...meh the convo is wp7 and we will have to wait till october 11 (fall quarter beginning) to get info on it and I am itching to jump to wp7
[Windows Phone 7 General] ThatGuyFromSprint:
Don't take it personal, that i don't believe you, and it doesn't come out, consider it a coincidence...

Personally, i don't know either way... but i would expect people who makes such definitive claims to be able to post some viable sources other than, "my friend said so."

Not saying you're a liar, just saying i find it hard to believe...
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
WOW... color me shocked and disappointed. Microsoft chose to not support CDMA at first. So no WP7 for Sprint OR Verizon until 2011. Wow......

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-20016752-56.html

I'm not necessarily shocked that they're not getting it but for the reasoning behind it. Wasn't expecting that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
I believed the rumormill on that one. It was a fairly reliable source saying that's what he heard from MS. MS probably just didn't make the drivers or something of that nature. Also, they're focusing on Snapdragon at 1st as well.

I'm really waiting until we see GSM, CDMA with Tegra 2, Hummingbird and snapdragon processors till I really make a decision on a phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Shamefully quotes this :o, and runs to hide.

jk

It is a let down though, we have 4 major carriers here in the US and two of them just got the Axe.

Also, it's not as bad as people may make it seem. If you had to choose between CDMA and GSM to launch your new OS on, which would you choose? CDMA is small when compared to GSM.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rruffman:
Sad but True

there are Posts on the MS Dev Forums even MS guys are admiting to it.. so its most likly true...
[Windows Phone 7 General] lordcanti86:
Exactly. MS is aiming for a worldwide launch, and Windows Mobile is far more successful outside of the US than in the States. GSM is global technology so this makes sense. I don't really care either way (T-Mob FTW!!!)
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
sprint isn't a shock but verizon is a shock to me...Sad for the cdma folks. Dah well if you won't excuse me and pitching a tent outside of t mobile
[Windows Phone 7 General] ElAguila:
I guess it is official that sprint won't see one until next year.

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-20016752-56.html?tag=mantle_skin;content

That sucks for me as I need to replace my current phone pretty quickly and I don't know if it will last that long.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Martice:
We will have more answers by Oct. 11 and beyond. As the year winds down we will have a better glimpse of what Verizon and Sprint are up to. I bet Sprint and Verizon will have some seriously incredible versions of WP7 and the one's who jumped to get an EVO in the meantime (which I currently have and can't wait to sell) will have to wait longer to get Sprint's and Verizon's offerings or pay a hefty price to switch.

Within a month or so, the landscape will start to come into focus and news of new processors, larger memory and better battery technology will be reserved for those who chose or had to wait to get a WP7 from the two CDMA carriers. Think about it. For Verizon and Sprint to come late in the game with minimum spec phones (1ghz processor/512mb memory) would be stupid. Especially with AT&T already offering up a slew of "minimum" spec devices. Other than form factor, Sprint/Verizon can't look to create any excitement if they roll out the same type of devices AT&T and T-Mobile already have. Something will have to be new and exciting. They will have to make a splash!

On another note, Sprint doesn't have the money to provide the variety of phones VZW usually provides so I look for Sprint to really have a couple of incredible WP7 offerings. They will have a minimum spec phone and a couple of monster ones. I am currently out of contract and have a Evo right now. My intention? Sell my Evo to absorb the cost of the best WP7 Sprint offers. What Sprint doesn't have in numbers, they will have in quality (See EVO and Epic). Recently Sprint has shown me they are committed to providing excellent phones that can compete with any other phones on the market.

I think Sprint is worth the wait.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ElAguila:
I was hoping to limp my phone along until one was released. I have a zune hd right now and I was looking forward to a wp7 phone but I don't know if my current phone can make it that long. I think you are right about the sprint offerings. May be the delay will allow time to get any kinks ironed out.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
Hmmm switch to t-mobile or wait it out :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] Martice:
Don't knee jerk. Wait about a month and see what the landscape looks like. There may be something coming down the pipe worth waiting for.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
If no cdma device comes out in January, we won't see anything until Spring.

Any bets?
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
So you're saying it's going to be a year until we see a CDMA device? I'll take that bet. It sounds like Microsoft is going to roll a decent sized update 1st/2nd quarter of next year and CDMA support will be part of it. No reason to believe that Sprint/VZW would choose to keep waiting to get a device especially since WP7 will be kicking ass and taking names by then :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
It won't be a full year. Just a season and a half. Spring sounds about right.
[Windows Phone 7 General] aurrun:
Honestly, I am going to have to disagree with just how well WP7 is going to be doing by that time. It is going to an iPhone saturated carrier, and one which was the first to come out with android but still had a lackluster response. At least in the US, I do not expect it to do that well. I mean sure in the long-term it might gain some support in the US just as Android did, but I don't see why anyone should expect great numbers for the first two quarters.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fixxxer2008:
sprint is not carrying wp7 anytime soon nor this year at all. ive seen the upcoming lineup and that phone isn't on it. same with verizon, the iphone is coming.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fixxxer2008:
id go longer and say late next summer or early fall.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
Such a long wait, I just grabbed me a epic 4g until wp7 comes out...now some of you android people PM me the names of apps, games, or tweaks i should install
[Windows Phone 7 General] fixxxer2008:
it was announced that at&t would be the only carrier right now in the US. im hearing mid 2011 other carriers will come on board.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fixxxer2008:
you can root it but there aren't really any custom roms yet. go to the epic section and do some reading.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lordcanti86:
So THAT's why T-Mobile is getting the Shcubert and HD7, along with possibly the Dell Lightning.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fixxxer2008:
not this year bud. wp7 will only launch on at&t this year, it was confirmed the other day. im sure they may be a way to unlock it to work on t-mobile though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lordcanti86:
TMo News laughs at you: http://www.tmonews.com/2010/09/its-beginning-to-look-a-lot-like-christmas/
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:

engadget.com/2010/09/16/microsoft-windows-phone-7-to-be-gsm-only-until-first-half-of-20/[/url]
[Windows Phone 7 General] lordcanti86:
Uhhh....T-Mobile uses GSM. Only Sprint and Verizon don't.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
I think that's just a misunderstanding on his part. If AT&T was the ONLY launch carrier, then AT&T would have said so and not that they're "the primary" carrier. Saying you're the primary carrier means that there are secondary ones.

Rooted my phone and ran Nandroid and Titanium backups. I just went to put a copy of the backups on my laptop and could not find any Nandroid files on my sd card.

Went back into recovery and ran Nandroid again. Noticed that even though I got the "Backup Complete" there were error messages above:

No sdcard/ .android_secure found. skipping backup of applications on external storage.

No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.

The card is a 2gig formatted fat32. Everything else seems to be fine with it. What am I missing?

Thanks :confused:
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfarrah:
Turn off your phone, pull the sd card and re-insert. Restart. Sometimes that helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilhe1s:
I got the same two messages both times that I ran nandroid (10 days apart). Although I did have all the image files backed up, such as:

boot.img

cache.img

data.img

datadata.img

recovery.img

system.img

Do I have to physically remove the card and reinstall as a refresh?

Also what is the importance of said file paths:

No sdcard/ .android_secure found. skipping backup of applications on external storage.

No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcmarshall:
I tried formatting the card again and it I got the same messages. Then I noticed a clockmod directory was on the card. Looks like the Nandroid backups are in that directory in the backup sub-directory. :D

From I came up with the above noted messages are normal. They simply mean that there is no ext partition and no applications on the card.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilhe1s:
Cool Thanks!

If you make a .android_secure folder on sdcard it will fix that issue. Im still researching sd-ext issue. I tried to create the folder but it didnt work because thats what im getting. hopefully that helps.

[Wildfire Android Development] Warlord711:
Hi !

I am new to HTC, so how can someone dump his phones ROM before he start trying to mod/root/unbranding it ?

Warlord711
[Wildfire Android Development] yelti:
You can not fully backup your phone before you start to hack your phone.

The first step in hacking your phone is to install a custom recovery.

After that you can make a backup of your rom with the program nandroid.

This is started in the recovery mode.

The only way to restore to the original status is by running the RUU update utility from htc.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twilk73:
I want to update to the new ADW but I am not sure how. I know before I could just go to the market but now that it comes standared in CM6 I am not sure what to do. Do I download it from a link here and then just install it and it will replace the old one. Or do I have to delet the old one and then installl it?

Also I have only been on the RC1-2 roms no nightlys. I dont really want to setup my settings and what not all over again this is another reason why I pretty much just stick to the RC's. Personally id still like to stay off the nightlys but just update ADW on RC2 so I dont have to mess with my settings and everything, so what is the best method to update?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
You don't necessarily have to wipe/lose settings when flashing nightlies. As for ADW, you just have to remount the system partition (adb remount), delete the old APK, and copy over the new one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twilk73:
is there a link for the new one to be downloaded or should I just download from teh market? I cant seem to find the ADW Launcher thread that I use to have saved.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
I thought RC2 included the new adw. here is the www http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/. i am on teh 8.21 nightly and i have the new adw.

to 'upgrade' to the nightly, simply wipe cache and dalvick cache and then flash the nightly. you will not loose your settings.

the new adw includes a new menu item...press Menu do you see a new icon in the shape of a pencil it says "edit"? if yes, you have the new adw version.

I have and extra car dock. I sent my car dock in for repair…HTC toll me it would take about a week to get it back. Well he didn’t tell me they were also in the process of moving to a new building. Long story short…I call 2 ½ weeks later…and they ship the replacement 2days later. Well a mouth ½ later they ship my original replacement.

So I have 2 car docks.

I was going to eBay 1…but I decided to keep it and try to use it as a desktop dock. Is there a way to use it as if you plug a USB cable in from the pc and mount your SD card?

Have any Captivate/Galaxy S forumers experienced the issue where, when replying to a text message right after it is received, your reply is placed BEFORE the text message on the threaded SMS view. It is a superficial issue I suppose, but it can get confusing trying to follow conversations and such.

Has anyone heard of this problem, or even better, a fix for it? I've tried setting the system time a few minutes later/earlier with no real results.
[Captivate General] zero48160:
yes i have also noticed this myself. it is a pain sometimes
[Captivate General] 04deveni:
For me, the replies to my messages are actually date stamped 5 hours backwards so show up muchj earlier in a threaded conversation. I have not been able to find a working fix but a workaround was to install Handcent sms (free in Market). It threads everything properly and is actually a pretty nice widget that shows you the latest texts....

Would love a native fix however so please advise if you've found one...
[Captivate General] absolutechaos92:
I had this problem. I fixed it by manually setting the system time.
[Captivate General] Phytrax:
I'm having the same issue. For me it's related to texts coming from a different time zone. If I manually set my time to the time where the texts are coming from, everything is fine. I've been using Chomp SMS, which is pretty nice, but I'll try Handcent. When I restart the threads are correct sometimes but eventually get messed up again.
[Captivate General] n0stalgia:
For me it's from every single phone number, no matter what the time zone. But i've temporarily fixed it with handcent, though the default sms client is classier looking.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] settlethestorm:
Ok so here goes...

After spending two days of installing Ubuntu on my pc, and getting dsixda's HTC Rom kitchen working on it, I'm having some troubles.

Now, I've searched this problem, and the ONLY two answers I've found don't work for me. My problem is that when I try to flash the Rom, I get E:"nameofthefile".zip can't open (bad)

At first I thought it may be my recovery. I (stupidly) used clockwork on my Eris for quite a while, but heard to stop using it. So I used the guide in the Eris dev section to safely flash from clockwork to amon ra... worked like a charm... but still the same error message.

I tried the Rom on my bros freshly rooted Eris (thanks jCases for the one click root app!) That's never had clockwork, only amon... still no go.

Then, I saw that it might be the fact that my SD card was partitioned, but it can't be that, cause my bros phone never had apps2sd or partitions and it didn't work.

So now, I'm out of ideas.. I've tried flashing this custom Rom on two completely different Eris, with the same error message. It's Conaps Eris Lightning 3.02. I got the kitchen cause I wanted to deodex the Rom. I've been talking to dsixda, and he suggested that I post here on the Eris forum. I've ran out of solutions, could ANYONE out there help? Any Eris users that have had this problem and know a fix? This post is my last hope :(

Also- since amon didn't work, I decided to try clockwork to flash. Same error message BUT Rom manager gave me an error log. Could anyone look over this and spot the issue/issues?
