Yes, the official upgrade. Read some of the links I posted.

I've also seen images of HD2 running W7. Any literature on how to get this now?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I give up...........

Whatever, I guess I'm just retarded then.

Mod, delete or close this.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
It is well known that the hd2 is NOT getting an official wp7 upgrade. Your links are either old articles or new ones showing the one video released by cotulla showing him boot wp7, which was just from him playing around and is a proof of concept video. It will be a long time before a port is made by him if it ever is... and if it is made, it will most likely not be fully functional. Please do your research and look at dates on articles before posting misinformation.
[HD2 General] Don001:
Well its been stated: http://apcmag.com/microsoft-no-windows-phone-7-upgrade-for-windows-mobile-6x-devices.htm

They's this thing about only 3 button control for windows 7, the HD2 is capable I'm sure of running WM7 but they will NOT be an upgrade!!
[HD2 General] t69broken:
wp7

We are not going to see an official upgrade but Cotulla is working on the port, which is mentioned in one of the links that you posted. We will get it just not official.
[HD2 General] mrpink83:
And again: read your own links and read the posts of conantroutman. The links are either old (and suggesting there is a chance) or showing a port of WP7 (by a developer).
[HD2 General] myx4ever:
Given the fact that the newly launched HD7 has the same hardware as our HD2s under the hood and that it's WP7 capable, there's no reason not to believe it'll be ported on HD2 by the XDA community.

However, I think it's clear for everyone that HD2 will NOT get an official upgrade from Microsoft/HTC. The reason is clear. They launched HD7, an HD2 with 720p camera and already running WP7.

Anyways, I have the feeling that good things are yet to come for our HD2. It's a very versatile piece of hardware.
[HD2 General] Don001:
I got that feeling to since most OS's have been ported to this wonderful device, what else is they to do? iOS <-- Mind my language but F no!! Who would want that on this device, it'll just ruin the look and reputation of the device ;)
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
When you say "W7" do you mean "Windows 7"..??

I think what your refering to is an image from cotulla of his HD2 running "Windows Compact Embedded 7" (i think thats right lol)

If I remember rightly you can buy this direct from MS and run it but it costs a fortune.......

Edit;

I didnt remember rightly......... apparently you can get a free trial......

Dude nobodys saying your retarted............ just that you've got your wires crossed..........

Stock Froyo ROM, unrevoked rooted.

I've removed a bunch of crapware since rooting, but now my sense home screen keeps restarting randomly. Is there a list of safe to remove crapware, or "Don't remove this!" list? I checked the EVO4 wiki, but didn't see anything relevant.

I guess I'll go back and undelete these one by one (or binary search) and test, but it is a bit difficult since the restarting is pretty random. I suspect it is flickr, footprints, news or stocks since those were nearly always running before.

Any info would be appreciated.

[Captivate General] glitterballs:
Hey all,

I don't know about you all, but even with minimal brightness on everything, my display ends up being 50+%of my battery use. From what I've read, AMOLEDs take no power to display black on the screen. After looking around a bit, I saw that CM6 has a 'browser color invert' option so you can make your browser display white text on a black background, presumably using a lot less battery for displaying text.

I was wondering if anyone knew if it would be possible to get this feature running on a FroYo Captivate. I don't have any CM6 devices, so I'm not even sure where this option is, but if you look on github, there is a common feature listed: Common: Browser color invert (save battery on AMOLED screens) - Qualcomm

Hello all,

Ive noticed various reports in threads for several different roms, where users have been unable to sign in to Twitter, or add a Twitter account to accounts & sync settings.

I have flashed DeFrost 5.1 today and vie experienced this issue first hand.

However, I've noticed the problem only occurs over wifi. As soon as i disable wifi, im able to add an account. Once the account is set up and im signed in, twitter seems to work fine over wifi. But for the initial setup / sign-in, I could only succeed over 3G.

Anyone else with the same issue care to try and report back?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemethb:
My microphone is recording horribly during calls and just about anything. At first I lived with it but now it's really starting to bother me. I stumbled on an XDA thread and some others that give the following instructions (to change call settings):

"*#*#197328640#*#*

[5] AUDIO

[1] HANDSET

[1] VOLUME

[6] I2S1 Rx Gain: Default to 0x38e8 on my phone. You can change it to something lower to reduce the mic sensitivity during a call.

or

[4] DST Speech TX Volume: Default to 98 on my phone. Again, you can change it to something lower to reduce the mic sensitivity during a call.

Unfortunately this does not work for audio or video recording.

I am not sure exactly where the 2 different gains get appplied in the audio chain, and if either of them is applied before the clipping occurs."

I was wondering if people that don't have any problems with their outgoing sound quality could post their I2S1 RX Gain and DST Speech TX Volume. My defaults are 0x1fff and 88, respectively. I tried the defaults that were posted in the instructions above but it made things even worse.

So, XDA, I ask you to please post your I2S1 RX Gain settings and DST Speec TX Volume!

Btw I'm running JH2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wang1chung:
[6] I2S1 Rx Gain: 0x1fff

[4] DST Speech TX Volume: 88

jh2 as well.........i've got a silicone type case on mine, and i noticed before when people complained about my voice, it was because some lint got into the tiny mic hole. once i cleaned it up, it was much better.

EDIT: i just checked my gf's phone, and it's the exact same.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Grashoper:
I just came across your post.... I just made a thread regarding this issue in this section.... Funny thing is... I'm also with Bell, and my defaults where exactly what was posted in your quoted text from the original poster (that you got your info from) and i changed mine to what you say was YOUR default settings... and it made a HUGE difference... I don't understand how/why yours was defaulted to what I changed mine to manually... weird.... I made my modifications around X-mas time when on 2.1 and even after upgrade to Froyo, the modified settings stayed the same...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cydiamante:
Can any of these be used to increase in call volume?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Grashoper:
ahhhh I'm not too sure... I have never tried... Try changing the Rx to a higher value and see what happens... don't forget to write down the original value...

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ACMilan07:
Yeah, I wish It would work. I was planning to keep it as my project phone. It's just too bad. I just got a G2 and it's my first Android device ever. I feel like the TP2 was more hackable.. and I really hate to let it go. My windows mobile/phone days are over :(

I'm clueless with Android.. I don't know how their programming works, I don't understand how to unlock the img on the phone or even put it in boot loader mode or even root it, etc. It's like I still feel out of place.

Any of the rest of you in a situation like mine?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kosmarnik:
Almost. WinMo was really hackable.

Though I only played with Android on the Touch Pro 2, so it was glitchy.

I just hope somebody roots WP7 before HTC 7 Pro comes out.

i was using the letter recogniser input method for the last 3months and it was wonking perfectly. Entering a word, automatically adding a space after the word entered and automatically predicting 5 words i might wanted to write next. That was perfect.

Suddenly though last month the function of automatically adding a space after a word entered disappeared, and i cant get it back. And there is no option to bring it back at all, unless i use a 3rd party keyboard e.g SPB keyboard where it has in the word completion tab, the option to add a space after a word. It is not even an option in the default HTC keyboard.

Is there any way i can get it back? It was really helpfull in my job..

Thanks...

"SuggSpace"-> 1 to add space after suggested word, 0 if not
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
I am hearing some people who removed bloatware got soft bricked and then some are saying they didn't. Is there an official word on this? I removed some of the Samsung bloat because I would never use it.

If there is anyone HERE (on a forum I actually trust) that has updated their Vibrant to J16 after removing bloatware and didn't get a softbrick- then I will update. If not, does anyone have the bloat apks? I'd rather just download and install them all again then have to ODIN.
[Vibrant General] DreamcastDC:
Never mind
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
Never mind what? Does this have anything to do with my question?
[Vibrant General] Bernardos70:
I did. I removed a bunch of the programs that came installed wroth the phone, such as mobitv, gogo, the gps program by using Titanium Backup.
[Vibrant General] kemp77:
I had to reflash mine due to this problem.
[Vibrant General] g1ftmfw:
Mine soft bricked and didn't even have bloat removed... all I had was root... no lag fix, nothing...... bricked and recovered in less than ten minutes... you would spend more time downloading and installing the bloat back... and when your device bricks anyways your gonna need odin so just use it or leave your phone alone...
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
I'm hardware blocked from accessing Recovery and Download so I'm trying not to softbrick my phone at all. Not because I don't want to use ODIN but because I do not wanna risk my phone being inoperable.
[Vibrant General] J3ST3RM4A3:
I was rooted and removed ALL of the Samsung crapware, and yes my phone bricked as a result of the OTA. I was able to flash JI6 via ODIN and everything is working again.

After the OTA, my Vibrant was stuck at the Samsung Vibrant screen.
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
Would I be able to do all of that through ADB? I'm hardware locked. Not only that, ODIN won't recognize my device!
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Yes I removed a lot of bloat and still updated fine through Odin.

Btw, there is now a fix for hardware locked phones. I tried it last night and now my phone can access download and recovery through the vol buttons. Go ahead and get adb set up though--you'll need it to remove the hardware lock.

If Odin isn't working for you, (1) do you have the Samsung phone drivers, and (2) what version of Odin are you using?
[Vibrant General] sahil04:
Yeah I removed a bunch of stuff that I didn't user using titanium and I was also using the one click roote and I updated fine using odin.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
Just a question, why would people want to remove these applications? does it have something to do with the battery life? or to have more memory for more applications?
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
It was kind of superfluous in my case since I have more app space than I'll ever need.
[Vibrant General] CitrixLemon:
Because I know I'll never use them and they take up space in the app menu as well as the memory, also a bunch of them start themselves and take up processing power, like the Tel-Nav GPS app.

I rooted then unrooted, can someone explain what exactly Odin is doing and why people's phones are getting bricked? I don't really want to flash a rom or something if that's what Odin is doing. My goal is to keep everything stock minus the bloatware apps.
[Vibrant General] mistical:
I have updated my Vibrant successfully without any bricks having removed bloatware each time before each upgrade.

I was always stock since I got the phone on release date. Now until JI5 came out, I had never decided to update the phone. When I updated to JI5 on the same day that was leaked, I did so via ODIN and had all the bloatware apps removed (TeleNav, GoGo, Slacker, etc).

When JI6 was leaked, I had done the same process again as above. I already had the bloatware removed before and once again after updating when it all came back.

When the official OTA JI6 came out, I waited a few days but flashed that over the leaked JI6 update without any issues once again via ODIN. I did the same thing again, had removed bloatware prior and again after. I honestly did not believe there was any difference in either prior nor do I see so after. Especially by file size or any fixes that weren't already in the leaked one.

This was just my experience and having removed the bloatware apps and not getting bricked. I never once applied any other modifications either (such as the battery ones, etc).

I did have 2 lag fixes applied (not at the same time) when I was on stock. The first one with terminal commands from a post here on the forums which was removed when I decided to try out One Click Lag Fix which was then removed before I flashed JI5. I have yet to apply a lag fix again with JI5 or JI6, nor will I be anytime soon I think either.
[Vibrant General] starkiller86:
When you say everything is working again, did your bloatware come back? ARe you able to remove it if it did? For some reason I cannot remove the bloatware when it came back.

EDIT:

Woops, I meant to ask J3ST3RM4A3 this.

but has anyone seen this problem? after going to JI6 the bloat comes back and is not removable?

and if you did remove bloat, with what? ADB? Root explorer? Astro? Titanium? None of these worked for me :confused:
[Vibrant General] chocobo15:
i purchased root explorer after i updated to JI6, it seems like such an useful app.

that allowed me to remove all the bloatware after the update.

i updated via KIES mini not OTA (i heard too much **** happened to people who did it the OTA way)

so when you delete your bloatware, they would just pop back? Cause i had that issue prior to updating root explorer. After i updated root explorer (purchasing the latest) i was able to successfully remove the bloat
[Vibrant General] ELStiko:
I had bloat removed prior to JI6. I did step 2 of this and had no trouble whatsoever.
[Vibrant General] CitrixLemon:
Same. I soft bricked with the OTA update but Odin worked fine. I've heard there may be an issue with leaving the update.zip on your phone while you try to update.
[Captivate General] Palmetto_X:

[Captivate General] flashman2002:
What does your thread title have to do with your post? XDA does not need another complaint thread about the Captivate. If you don't like it you will be able to see the alternatives as they come out.

Thanks, I changed the title to make it more clear.

I am just trying to see if others are thinking of doing the same.
[Captivate General] Verysafety:
Other than the GPS problem I haven't found anything wrong per-se with the phone. Yes there were a few Samsung-tweaks done that you have to play with to really get the most out of your phone but in comparison to the EVO4G (having tested them personally) which has way more bloatware and kryptic UI changes, I think this is an all around better phone. It's lightweight, has a great screen, Android platform, and it's not going to be experimental like the Windows 7 phone.

Why don't you like the phone? Just because GPS doesn't work? I'm pissed it doesn't work either because I had a crappy G1 with no 3G that I was using unlocked on ATT for a year until ATT finally came out with an "omg wow nice phone" Android phone worth buying.

If they are offering a fix through software that is legitimately going to work then I welcome it. Until then, I'm going to just read maps normally like we did back in the ole days...ha!

ps:

Please don't call it a Cappy, that is an atrocious name.
[Captivate General] terrigan:
Y'know.. i've seen too many of these threads. I understand that you're unhappy with the Captivate because of the GPS problem and perhaps it's not the right phone for you. However, I don't think these threads belong on the Captivate forum. The forum is for people who, i think, want to stick with the phone. I, for one, enjoy the Captivate. I love hacking and modding my phone and personally I believe the Android platform is really meant for people that like hacking their phone. If you want to jump ship because of the GPS aspect before waiting for any solution that comes out from Samsung and I'm sure there will be one, that is your decision and I hope you like your new phone.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
This is definitely a confusing one on my part. I have my HTC Tilt2 running Android, and the volume options for it and everything are working perfectly. I can hear music being played out of it and all. Thing is though, I can't change ANY of the ringtone options, notifications, or sms reminder sounds. They are all set on silent, with no other options. I look in the /andboot/media/audio however, and I can very clearly see that all the options for sound are still there. I have tried removing Android off of my SD Card to no avail.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Format your card with the HP tool. I think the partition table gets screwed up on peoples cards, and the Windows format doesn't touch the table. Just a guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
Well, I formatted my SD Card, and... Surprise surprise, it didn't work :/

Maybe it has something to do with a storage file on the phone, idk...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
With the HP tool or how did you format it?

Also, are you using the preFRX02 system image or...?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
I used the format tool on the phone because I don't have a way of formatting it without it being in the phone since I lost my SD Card Adapter for it.

And I believe I am using... the ProjectAndroid2.2BLAZN.092810 build with the 10/10 update on it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
That's NOT the way I asked you to format.

I even said I think the partition table is what is getting screwed up, and that the Windows format tool doesn't touch the partition table - the WinMo tool would be the same way.

So you lost your USB cable to your PC as well? That's how I always format/communicate with the SD card...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] QuentinX5:
I tried using the USB cable, but I couldn't get the option to format it. It wouldn't come up under the devices for it. Would it possibly have anything to do with syncing it to the PC? Like changing it from using to ActiveSync to connecting with it using the Disk Drive?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Yea, I always select the "Disk Drive" popup on the phone when I want to format/work with just the card. I don't think it'll work in ActiveSync - you'll be able to see the card, but I don't think you'll be able to format it.
