[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:
HD2

+ highly modifiable

+ WINMO, ANDROID, UBUNTU, (MAYBE WP7)

+ TOMTOM (only winmo!)

+ PSX GAMES with PS3 controller (only winmo!)

+ android running atm with > 24 hrs normal use, wifi, a lot of texting and calling

- Android not 100% stable atm

- weight (it's not light, but you get used to it fast)

- no front camera (I would have loved that)

- speaker is in front, but media speaker is at the back, that's really a dealbreaker, I don't know how the Desire HD is doing on that part

- if you ONLY want android, don't pick HD2, I get a lot of time without signal (tried a dozen radio's, nothing solves the problem perfectly)

I had a samsung before I bought my HD2 and it sucked, but running android, it might be worth giving it a try. My phone before (the samsung) glass broke after one week I had it.. I hope samsung learned from it and made their screens better.

+ for the HD2, my phone fell down on the floor REALLY HARD about 6 times allready, only thing that always gets loose is battery cover, but my screen is still intact, allthough my phone 4/6 times landed on the screen itself and not on the back.

I would go for a desire HD, but I don't know if there are phones that HTC is releasing any time soon? My HD2 costed my 600 EUR so I would like to be certain that if I buy a new phone, that it's the best of the best. Like you I guess :)

My advice, wait... don't buy the galaxy S, a friend of my has a galaxy, it doesn't really differ much. I bet in 2 months, the next gen of devices will be even more wicked. :D

LCD or AMOLED (both have positive and negative sides, that's a little subjective)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
If you only want to run android, get a native android phone. If you want to spent a lot of time hacking and setting up your phone and play with different OS's, then get a hd2. But understand that you have to have the time to spend researching and setting up up to get it stable and the way you want. It's not for the everyday person who just wants a phone that just works out of the box.

whoa psx games in winmo? how can i do that?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:
Cobaltcontroller :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jmerlos:
Had an HD2, got a Vibrant, came back to the HD2. I found the Vibrant to be too laggy even with custom ROMS​
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nismo300zx:
thats the name of the app to play the psx games?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
Cobaltcontroller is what allows you to use ps3 or Wii controllers through bluetooth... fpsece is the playstation emulator. A very good one, too, with years of development work behind it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ryan562:
i have both as well. if you want a native android phone then get the vibrant. cm6 is close to being ported over and 2.2 update should be able by the end of this month. gps issues seemed to have been fixed under the current wave of OTA updates.

the processor especially the gpu on the vibrant is the best i've seen. it's right up there with the iphone4. i'm not surprised since samsung is the one who makes the iphone 4 processor lol. after rooting and overclocked the vibrant to my liking, i'm pulling quadrant scores over 2400 lol. although these scores some times are inflated it goes to show you that the samsung processor is on a different level over the last gen 1ghz snapdragon.

the hd2 is nice due to its huge screen and ability to port different OS. i'm actually waiting to see if we can port over win mo 7 on to it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] psykick5:
The iPhone uses TFT-LCD screens. No one is licensed to use Samsung's screens except them. Also my cousin sitting next to me right now has a vibrant, the screen isn't necessarily brighter, but it's more vivid and the colors are better. Personally the Samsung crapware really sucks, too.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] djunio:
I have both, I would go with the Vibrant. It's has hands down the best screen n GPU of any phone. It'll probably offer the most relevancy in the long run. The HD2 imo is one of the best phones to be released but I'll go with the Vibrant if I had to choose one.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malaeus:
HTC makes an extended battery for the HD2 with a kickstand built in.

i have one, it is amazing. i can go 3 days on my HD2 without charging.

Hello, as I am lacking a I9000 at the moment I would dearly like it if someone could provide the I9000's (the one with the FFC, I don't think the Bell version has one) camera software (the .apk). Thank You.

EDIT: Sorry if this has been posted

Camera for galaxy s i9000

Dear all,

i've upgraded my galaxy s I9000 to 4.2.1. and the camera is aweful!

how can i install the old version camera on my device?

i've downloaded the camera apk that you've uploaded here but it's not installing.

can you please help?!:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevtrysmoddin:
Have you tried any of the free camera apps on play market?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barbod_f:
yes

i've tried some of them like Camera FV-5 ,but no quality!

it seems the pixels won't work! when i zoom the picture its blur!

any solution?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
The stock camera in 2.3.6 roms relies on Tw frameworks to operate- something that unofficial 4.x.x roms lack.

So unless someone can somehow port the camera over, its not going to work :/

How about the MobileTV apk? Why will it not work on JB ?

Can you please post the original apk for TV?

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
What do you mean by the MobileTV aok? Do you mean for TV out?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrCabana:
My Galaxy S i9000B has lost Digital TV software after updating to JB. I was wondering if the old apk will be good for JB.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Nope. the DBM TV will not work on any custom ROM, as most custom ROMs' are ports from Google Nexus phones, which do not have the TV hardware just like the i9000 ..same situation for the M110S the Korean Galaxy S. Only samsung can solve this as they have the source codes and schematic diagrams, but they will NEVER release such things since they want you to change phones every year and have abandoned support for older versions .

So you think the old GB apk will not work? Doesn't even worth to give it a try?

How about another general apk? I have heard of something called Manga TV if I am not mistaken.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
I know for sure it won't work since I am using a similar phone like i9000B with built-in DMB TV hardware.

if you want a TV app. just download from Google play for web TV programs

So no way to use built-in hardware, huh?

3G internet is really bad here, WebTV is not an option.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
yup, that's why it does not exist in any custom ROMs.

That's a bummer! As the Big Lebowsky would say: these apk's (TV and Radio) really tied the room together. At least for me.

Do you think that if i revert to GB they will appear again? Or will I have to re-install them?

Can you please upload them for me (both tv and radio apk's) ?

Thank you.

Yes , just flash back the STOCK Gingerbread ROM and everything will be there and also work.

[EVO 4G General] dabezt1:
Ok guys I'm new to the evo and just want to make sure I didn't skip any important steps. I have latest ota and rooted with unrevoked3 and got s-off with unrevoked forever. Flashed amonRa recovery and created nandroid.

I'm looking to try out the EViO Rom or Latest fresh rom. Can I just put the rom on sdcard and flash the rom from recovery? Or am I missing something?
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
Put the rom on the root of your card, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache twice, then flash the rom.
[EVO 4G General] bigmoogle:
Don't forget to backup any apps with TB or MyBackupPro as well as the nand backup.

Good luck
[EVO 4G General] OneStepAhead:
wiping twice is a good idea after a duece, but it's a bit redundant when dealing with dalvik cache :)
[EVO 4G General] omegasun18:
Its always a bit redundant :P i think thats the point though. Honestly if the recoveries are wiping them correctly there should be no reason to do them twice, But it makes people feel good to do so more power to them.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawaiian.monzta:
Hey guys sorry to put a post if this has already been answered or what not but okay i did everything i was suppose to do as far as rooting the g2. I even got to the part where i input the commands on the terminal emulator on the phone and i got the forked 26somethin childs and the $ were # instead so i know i did everything correct. But when i open a root only app, it says im not rooted? Can anyone help?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrbourque:
you will get a better response if you post this question in the thread for temp root

and this is why the thread called Temp Root.

You only get 1 second of rootness

Know, I can´t root, and I can´t use market.

Will you please help me? I try to flash with flashrec, but it´s need a SDcard..

Can you pleas help me???

I had the same problem after my legend gott brick'd. i used this guide in ***Legend Android Development -> [HOWTO] USB Unbrick*** and now im back up again.. (Cant post links)

Gl. i hope u sort it out :)
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Thanks for the work! Will have a try!

Another question:

Can the two lag-fix use together?
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
You welcome! No, it is either one or the other. Many people swear by the Voodoo lag fix, but if you forget to disable it you will end up having to go through a lot to reverse it. (Personal Experience ;) )
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
OK,got it. Thanks

I use Bionix's rom with voodoo kernel(thanks for his great work), but when i enabled voodoo it says '/dev/block/mmcblk0p3' in adb shell instead of '/dev/block/mmcblk0p4' in his thread. I don't know why but it will be all right to flash another Rom. I also searched on google, but thers's no help about it.

Hope this can help someone who were in this situation..

PS: When disabled ,it says '/dev/block/mmcblk0p2' corretly.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
It should always say "0p3", you were looking in the wrong spot. It confused me at first too.
[Vibrant Android Development] ninoriff:

Parse Error on Sims3

Any reason this is showing up? Other than that, great ROM!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] deez1234:
Nice work, lets keep the development for the Vibrant rolling. The more the better!
[Vibrant Android Development] 30Glock:
Wow no one is reporting Bugs
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Thanks for clearing that up, I had already gone to sleep when dddtc2005 asked.
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I didn't have enough room in the ROM Zip to include the data package and still be able to use MediaFire's free 200mb account. I have updated the OP with the instructions on how to get and install the data package.

If anyone knows of a different file sharing site that is as easy for people to download from please let me know and I will upload the ROM with the data package included. (232mb).
[Vibrant Android Development] chris279m:
I know this isn't a BIG deal. But you added the thing for the Sims 3. When i click on it to download it. I get this message. *There is a problem parsing the package.* Uhh, Is it my fault and didn't do something or what??
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
I use dropbox to host files... 2gb limit and they seem to download more successfully
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I have updated the OP to include instructions for getting the Sims to work. Basically the issue arises from the Sims 3 Stub file being locked to my handset. When it is installed on anyone else's handset it will error out due to the device ID mismatch. The way around this is to install the data package yourself. All of the instructions to do so are in the OP now.
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I have never used DB before. Can I set it up so that anyone can download the file, or do they have to log into my DB account to access it?
[Vibrant Android Development] junkdruggler:
You just upload and it allows you to share a link... its really easy and links your phone to your comp...
[Vibrant Android Development] earljg:
This looks awesome! It's great seeing all of these custom ROMs coming out now, thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] rolf90:

mediafire without Sims3 keeps processing download request and doesnt download
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Hmmm.... maybe MediaFire hit capacity.... The DropBox seems to be working. Ill check it now.

The link seems valid, and I can access from here without logging in... ??? First time Ive used MediaFire before, is this kind of behavior normal for them?

Can someone post pics?? Thanks

Sent from my vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Here is the default. It is the same as the Frankin-Twiz Desktop and app indicators. I personally use LauncherPro and as such spent zero time modifying the look and feel of TouchWiz (Including the Desktop). I am posting both the default TW & My LP Version.

Hey can someone post the mediahub app because i started the trial and then flashed a new rom so now im stuck and cant unsubscribe if i dont somehow then theyre gunna charge me 10 bucks everymonth for something im not using..

Well..... DropBox just suspended my new account from over use.... anyone have any ideas on how to host this? I can place it on my private FTP server, but I only have 400k upload bandwidth. :(

Is this Franklin Twiz with the samsung apps plus sims back? Or are there other changes? Thanks.

Great job! Just installed it with Rom Manager and it runs smoothly. Thanks, bruddah!

Public link has been disabled
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Application wise yes. I have also modified the system to allow running a variety of lag fix methods methods reliably as well as putting the default I9000 startup/shutdown splashes. It also has the OTA releases of Modem.bin and GPS files ported in to improve the 3G and GPS performance over the JI6 beta and includes JAC's XMOD Kernel. There were other changes that I made, but cant remember at the moment.
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I have reposted this to MultiUpload. Hopefully this will take care of the Hosting issues! I have updated the OP with the changes.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Does this have the Samsung messaging app or AOSP? I can't stand the old looking messenger.
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
***CORRECTION*** This does not include TouchWiz Messaging application for SMS messages, although when I get home from work I will update the ROM with the TW SMS app and reupload the ROM image. I left in the Android IM Client for instant messaging on AIM, MSN and Yahoo.

@Jamez243 I will forward you a PM with a link to the app and instructions on how to install it into your running system.
[Vibrant Android Development] harabinger66:
Thanks for posting this Xiper, I appreciate your contributions to the community =)
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
This is just what I was looking for.... why remove the Samsung apps that are better than AOSP? now I just need to flash this Rom and forget to manually install the Samsun Apps back. and Finally I got the Sims back..

Thanks

TW SMS breaks MMS on after market ROM's
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Thats what I said! I had an iPhone4 guy look at my phone and say, your messaging looks better than mine.

VICTORY!!

lol but then Bionix took it out cause MMS didn't work, I'd rather make people EMAIL me a picture and use the Samsung messaging lol... screw MMS
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Thanks for the heads up. I will look into it tonight and see what I can do, I am rather partial to the TW app myself and it seems others are as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
This is my first flashing and using a ROM. Everything went great and the phone runs great. My only beef is the font. The stock font, which I'd like to go back to, is gone. If anyone could direct me or let me know how to get that font back I'd be most thankful.

Thank you xipher and everyone else who contributed, this was super easy.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Yeah I've read about this too. Would it be a lot more work to post one with the TW app as well (I really could care less about MMS) but if not that is ok I'll stick with stock till it's fixed.
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I'm not sure, but Ill start digging tonight and see if I can work some magic. Right off hand it sounds like the MMS libaries are not compatible with the version of TW SMS that is being loaded. I'll try to revert just the libs and see if I can find a pair of libs that match the app
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I have attached the original font. Place the font into a folder called "Fonts" on your SD Card and then download an app called Type Fresh from the Market. Replace the DroidSans.ttf with /sdcard/Fonts/DroidSans.ttf and click apply.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
You would be the man
[Vibrant Android Development] eortizr:
MMS using TW SMS works just fine for me,, never had an issue with it,, videos and picutres are sent just fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] skateral271:
This is by far my FAVORITE rom for the Vibrant. Running it with LagFix 2.1+ and it FLIES! So happy, BUT i REALLY want this rom to have the AVATAR app thing that launches the movie, and REALLY want the Vibrant Messaging app back! :(

btw, is there supposed to be no calendar app? cuz i REALLY liked the vibrant calendar but i have NO calendar app on mine, again thanks for the AMAZING ROM!
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Yeah that calender app is missed. No desk home app. I have the dock :) last thing. The battery counts in 20s? I like the font though.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
On a custom rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
Do people really want the Avatar Launcher??? If so Ill include it (Although maybe Ill just provide the package with instructions on how to install it :/ ) Also I got the calendar and Allshare working on my experimental build. Still working on MMS...... its not cooperating :(
[Vibrant Android Development] xipher_zero:
I have fixed the TWCalendar App and it is working perfectly. I have also gotten AllShare working.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamez243:
Agreed avatar will play without the icon just go to video player. Glad you got the colander. I used the desk home app eugene had posted in his forum as the one from the market does not work. Still would like messaging app even if it only works for sms... Or does it not work at all.

Thanks for satisfying. :)
