The rumored specs seem too good to be true - so much ahead of anything else that has been rumored.

If they are as good as the rumors suggest, and the prices are as shown here, then I'll have one within a couple of months!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Veldmuus:
would love to see the specs :D, and pictures about this HD7

(hope same as HD2 for the wp7 rom ssshhh. :P)
[Windows Phone 7 General] cseven:
Awww, someone leak a prototype already :p

I just hope that T-Mobile Germany also gets it. As much as I dislike them, their 3G network is the only one that is available in my hometown.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TheDeadCPU:
PHOTOSHOPPED!

j/k

Looks interesting.. £599 eh?
[Windows Phone 7 General] satchef1:
Could the codename for this be Schubert by any chance? Or is that definitely a seperate device? I guess if the specs are as high as is rumoured then there's room for HTC to do the HD7 plus a QWERTY device, plus the Schubert (with lower specs and a lower price).
[Windows Phone 7 General] XaaR_:
Yeah, and the rumored specs are F-A-K-E !
[Windows Phone 7 General] the-hq:
It's Euro. German prices also include the 19% VAT and 2 years guarantee.
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
I would like to see the the specs too, though :)
[Android Software Development] TheLynxy:
As many of you have probably heard, you can load Ubuntu along side your Android OS. This has been confirmed on many devices, including N1, Desire, and Incredible. Here is the nexusonehacks post describing how to do it.

But I have found a better way to do it. Normally you mount ubuntu.img as a loopback and run from that. The problem with this is that is has very limited space (250mb or so) as you cannot exceed the size of the .img.

My method is to extract the contents of the .img and run it directly from the sdcard's filesystem.

Please be aware that if you use ClockworkMod Recovery, it will try to backup our new EXT2 partition! It thinks its an app-to-sd partition! I've yet to figure a way around this. Do not follow this tutorial if you make nandroids!

Requirements

- ubuntu.img (must be an ARM port)

- A Linux distro so you can 'cp' to your sdcard

- You will have to make a second partition on sdcard, ext2 type

- Patience and experience. This guide assumes you already know the basics of how to work with Linux

Step 1 Create the partition on sdcard

- Open your Linux distro and insert your sdcard (or enable disk drive on phone)

- Start GParted (or similar) and create an ext2 partition on your card. The partition should be as big as ubuntu.img. I recommend atleast 25% bigger so you have room to install packages and whatnot. FAT32 or NTFS will not work here!

Step 2 Mount ubuntu.img

- Mount ubuntu.img with the following commands (on the Linux distro, not phone):

sudo su
mkdir /mnt
mkdir /mnt/ubuntu
cd [B]/path/to/ubuntu/image[/B] **IMPORTANT!
mount -t ext2 -o loop ubuntu.img /mnt/ubuntu

Step 3 Copy contents of ubuntu.img to sdcard

- Make sure your new ext2 partition is mounted. We will assume its at /media/ext2sd

- Copy the contents. This will take a very long time depending on speed of card. Mine took roughly 70 minutes

cp -dRP --preserve=all /mnt/ubuntu/* /media/ext2sd/

Step 4 Update bootubuntu script

Here is a rundown of the modified script:

- Mount root as r/w

- Ensure /mnt/sdcard2 exists

- Mount the second sdcard partition

- Everything else, including chrooting to start Ubuntu! I use 'nice' to lower the priority of chroot so it won't make phone sluggish. Change this if you want.

Download the script

Step 5 Get Ubuntu running

- From here out its the same as any other tutorial. do a 'sh ubuntu.sh' to copy files to phone, then 'bootubuntu' to start it. Hopefully everything goes good for you! You now have much more room to do things!

[Android Software Development] hazard666:
Is it possible to use ext3/4 and would there be any performance gains?
[Android Software Development] TheLynxy:
ext3/ext4 use journaling. Unless you know for sure that your sdcard does wear-leveling, I would not advise using these as they may degrade the life of your card quickly. Another option would be to specifically make the partition without these options, but there is little to no performance gain as sdcards are already slow.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skd05:
I want to install a metamorph them on my Droid Eris it load all the apk fine but every time it get to the framework. Res it never loads I let it go for about 20min nothin I have to pull the battery. Any help would be great.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidkevlar:
Make sure you have USB debugger enabled. It must be on for MM to take.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Also, are you applying all of the themes at once? I've always found it helps to install them one at a time. There is another setting you might want to tweak as well - the speed of the Metamorph. Slower actually usually works better. I know it seems odd since you are having issues with it hanging, but it slows down the process and goes through it a little more thoroughly, so hopefully that will allow it to complete the process correctly instead of trying to rush it and it not working right and just freezing it. It might also help if you tell us which rom and theme you are trying. It is a possibility they just aren't compatible.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skd05:
my debugger is just cant figure out why my framework wont take help :(
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skd05:
dud your the man i've been trying to use mm for about 1 month the very first them i used it worked i dont know how but it did but every them after that no go.Finally it works i did what you said debugging and the speed perf... thanks again

Having trouble with the MetaMorph app? Check out ZipThemer, it can install multiple themes in a single reboot and provides a way to quickly revert in case you change your mind about the theme.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheLynxy:
Over the weekend I finally booted Ubuntu along side my Android. I didn't like how limited I was on disk space (on Ubuntu) so I decided to fix it somehow.

Here is my guide for those interested!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phen0m:
Using the phone while tethered to my laptop.. i got a message stating the above.. Is there anyway around this ridiculousness? I remember the Touch Pro had this issue at first as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gTen:
First of all this is wrong section..

Second of all this is not ridiculous..this is how physics works...It is not the limitation of the phone, it is limitation of Lithium-Batteries...when charging and consuming a lot of energy like say with WIFI it causes Lithium batteries to heat up...at a certain point your phone stops charging to prevent the battery from exploding...this has been the same with ALL phones as long as they use Lithium batteries.

Solution: Put your phone on a metal platform..the metal platform will act as a heat sink and should alleviate the issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
I remember there was a phone that was blowing up in peoples pockets when the battery came in contact with metal. Or was it the ipod touch?

But anyways you better give your phone a break too. Pull the battery for a minute and put it back in and Plug your evo in and let it charge off for like 15/20 minutes and then it should be ok to turn on. But if you wanna be safe just charge it while its off until its done
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HolyGrail:

Does "- Some text in some buttons are not white (I have been unable to fix this and I probably won't)"

Mean that on some buttons it's not possible to read the text and therefore the function of the button?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2500726:
Yes but it is very few buttons and only in some particular apps. The text can be read but it is very unclear. You can go in the Gmail app and the show pictures button for example has this issue

Hey thanks for the CMTheme.zip file. I rebooted my phone and now everything looks perfect! :rolleyes:

But now I have another problem... I installed the special theme HTC_IME mod keyboard and it works great. However, every single time I reboot it is gone and I have to reinstall from the .apk file.. :mad:

I'm not sure if it's because of the CMTheme.zip file or the Black Perfection Theme itself. Maybe they cause to keyboard to revert to its original? :confused:

Sorry I have to trouble you again..!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] :
Oh yeah I had that too... It happens when you have HTC_IME mod installed before and you then install the themed version:rolleyes:Try to remove it from adb and install it again from the apk :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] catfish90:
I'm kinda new to these kind of things... how do I remove it from adb? If I'm not

wrong adb = Android Debugger? Do I have to download anything?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] :
If you already have adb installed:

adb shell rm system/app/jonasl.ime-1.apk

If not you can google around on how to set up ADB :)

And yes adb = "android debugging bridge"
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] factualpuddle:
okay! i will trust you on this, i better like this better than Android keyboard. for some reason i don't like how the HTC_IME feels

[XPERIA X10 General] naplesbill:
There is a X10a Latin America Generic that I was using for a while. It doesn't have the automatic APN support so you'll have to set your APN settings manually. I forget where I found it though. This is a generic 026 ROM.

I am currently using the AT&T R2CA016 ROM that I have rooted, decrapified, and re-enabled non-market apps. It seems to the best performance and battery life from all the ROMs I have used. It was pretty amazing what removing the AT&T crap did for the performance of the phone.

My G1 had been shipped with a 0.95.1001 spl and 2.22.20.23 radio. I've been searching through the Internet but been directed to chinese websites. Now i realize that i have a chinese version :( OMG

I want to flash to safeSPL in order to follow MTD PH progress (by firerat http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=717874),then 2.xx radio and CaNNoN rom in the end. According to lbcoder in this post: http://208.100.42.21/showthread.php?t=698260 "There is no brick risk when going from a 0.95.x000 SPL --> 1.33.2003 ..... 0.95.x000 SPLs are compatible with 1.x and 2.x radios ..... In general, the safe way to change radio or SPL on the device is to go from 0.95.x000 --> 1.33.2003, and then ONLY use FASTBOOT for switching SPLs or RADIOs in the future, and ONLY switch between 1.33.2003 and 1.33.2005." But i dont know whether my 0.95.1001 spl is in compatibility with SafeSPL? Please help me because i cant read Chinese

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jilee:
No, I dont need a help in translating. I dont know whether my spl is compatilble with the radio. I tried Google translate before asked here but still have no idea :(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
My best guess is that it is *PROBABLY* all compatible.

You already *HAVE* a 2.x radio, and a 0.95 SPL. Most likely, [read: guess] those are just *translated* versions of what we already more commonly use.

My very best guess is that your 0.95.1001 SPL can safely be changed to 1.33.2003... and your radio version... should be fine as is... but again, it is an uncommon version number -- mostly familiar with 2.22.19.26 and 2.22.23.02. Yours appears to fall somewhere in between, so is probably similar to both.

In other words, **I** would go for it, but there is some uncertainty, so it remains your choice and your risk.

Note: If you change the radio *FIRST*, then *IF* it bricks at that stage, it WILL DEFINITELY be possible to softload an SPL via JTAG and recover the device that way...

Here is how *I* would go about this:

Copy the 1.33.2003 SPL and 2.22.23.02 RADIO update.zip files onto the SDCARD. BACKUP AND UPGRADE the RECOVERY PARTITION FIRST (from within the running normal operating system), then reboot the phone and boot on the custom recovery partition (but do NOT do a "reboot recovery" -- do a power off and power it on holding the home button). IF that custom recovery partition boots, then you can be fairly (but not absolutely) certain that it will all be compatible, so proceed with SPL and RADIO updates. Be aware that the phone will reboot TWICE during the upgrade of EACH -- so from recovery, write SPL's update.zip, it will reboot into update-hboot mode and do the REAL SPL write, then reboot again into recovery and format the cache partition. At this point you will write the RADIO'S update.zip, it will reboot into update-radio mode for the REAL write and reboot again into recovery to format the cache partition. At this point, you will be ready to go at it with custom system images, custom partition tables, etc.

But just remember: I take no responsibility for weird crap that happens. I don't know that SPL, so I don't know what it will do.

Here's another thought: does that SPL have fastboot mode? If it does, what partitions does it present? Does it allow you to fastboot boot?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jilee:
What do you mean by "backup and upgrade the recovery partition from within the running system" ?

It doesnt have fastboot mode. When i start my phone while holding camera button, it shows me the "rainbow-Screen" with these info:

DREA*** PVT 32B MFG

HBOOT-0.95.1001

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.20.23

I can't make neither the dancing android nor the skateboards appear by pressing Back button, so I guess it doesn't have fastboot, but still allows to fastboot boot, am I right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Cant possibly spell it out any simpler than that..

Where do you get the idea that fastboot depends on pictures? Does it SAY "fastboot"?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jilee:
hihi I am so sorry 'bout that mistake. Just because i didn't read the entry on Android Wiki carefully enough ^^. I reboot onto rainbow screen, plug phone into usb, press back button and then i see the letter FASTBOOT instead of Serial0 (i havent plugged into usb while doing this before, so that's why i can't figure out the point ^^ ) . So, I got fastboot

Originally Posted by jilee View Post

Because I dont understand. You said "within the running system" so I did backup by Astro, because i cannot do nandroid backup (go to recovery, choose nand but it says i have to "nandroid-mobile.sh" via console --> i go to console, type "/sbin/nandroid-mobile.sh -b" , and then <CR> but it has an error about cannot write or make dir or smth like that). So, can you tell me a little bit further ^^ Because i am so noob

Edit: oh, the nand problem was just space. I cleaned up my sdcard and now it work fine^^

But i still dont understand the point "backup and upgrade in the system", and also "what partitions does the fastboot present". Please make it through ^^
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Since you appear to have fastboot (it remains to be seen if it is a FUNCTIONAL or crippled fastboot)... find yourself any recovery image you like and do a "fastboot boot recovery.img". It'll do one of three things;

1) work,

2) give you some kind of not-authorized error,

3) try to boot and then lock up or otherwise crash.

Cross your fingers for (1).

As for the part you don't understand.... I suggest that if you can't understand that, you probably shouldn't be messing with firmware and need to go back to google and do some research before proceeding any further.

how do i sync contacts on phone to gmail contacts?
[Desire General] gRoberts:
My phone done it automatically? When creating contacts, it should ask you where to save it?

If they are on the SIM, go to People, press Menu and click Import/Export. Then click Import from SIM.

Then when you next sync (i.e. to get your emails etc) it will automatically upload them?
