[Droid Incredible General] axemanmike:
will we ever be able to use wii controller on htc incredible? if rooted with another rom? htc incredible + wii controller+ video out= all the games i ever wanted .
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
I really wish incredible had a full bluetooth stack.

I read that cm6 does for incredible. Someone even associated their keyboard and mouse to their incredible with cm6.

So try cm6 and reply with results.
[Droid Incredible General] matt_erOfFact:
Wiimote works great with non sense roms. I have done it with 2 or 3 different roms myself... If I can get behind a computer sometime today I will post some links to ruins that work.
[Droid Incredible General] Gahh Its Lee:
I may switch to a non sense Rom for this
[Droid Incredible General] axemanmike:
link please

can someone post a link for roms that work on incredible that i can use a wi controller on?
[Droid Incredible General] axemanmike:
Hey did you ever get we working on incred?
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
It will not work on htc sense roms. It "may" not even work on modified sense roms.

The consensus is that it will work on custom vanilla roms -- the heavily supported roms like skyraider or cm6.
[Droid Incredible General] axemanmike:
I heard someone had ruby with wi controller working. I have slcd screen jade bc not been able to load cm6 and wanted to see if anyone has tried or could try this for me ? Thank you again to all that help
[Droid Incredible General] blaksplash:
i've been using wiimote with ataroid, gameboid, gensoid, nesoid,psx4droid, and snesoid.

i've been using with many previous versions of CM-

currently using

CM 6.1.0 RC2 and invisiblek #16

now i only wish there was TV out for AOSP roms!
[EVO 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
My browser won't load google.com...this is pitiful Im on myns rc2 when I try to go to certain websites thee browser crashes and exits right away its so annoying. This even happened on fresh 3.3.0.1. This started after I restored through nandroid backup.please help it is much appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] Chalup:
This used to happen to Vibrants before Samsung fixed the GPS. Disable location access for google.com. Frustrating, I know, but it will suffice until a fix is released.
[EVO 4G General] achllles:
My browser kep crashing after I flashed caulkin's tether fix on certain roms.

I removed the fix, and problem was gone.

If you didn't mess with Myn's rom after flashing, there shouldn't be such problem. I'm guessing you probably flashed something addition to it afterwards.
[EVO 4G General] DarkManX4lf:
I don't know what to tell you.. I have no issues with Google.com
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
how is the phone a google phone its made by htc with a google OS .. unless your running a nexus one ?

but yea google.com loads fine for me
[EVO 4G General] Gryph3n:
It is probably reading something from a previous install and is fighting the ROM for rights to access that website. I ran a clean install of Myn's Warm 2.2 rc2 and am not having any issues. Are you getting any error message when the browser crashes? I noticed that the Android software likes to cough out a multitude of error messages when things go wrong.
[EVO 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
I meant the software :P but anyway, It was my fault I hadnt wiped my data and didnt do the factory reset when installing myns rom, so my bad everything is now in order. :D
[Droid X Themes and Apps] NegativeOne:
So from investigation, I can see that the call accept/reject screen is not part of framework. Where can I find images for the sliders on that screen? I skinned my lockscreen to look like stock android, and now i'd like to do the same here.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] NikonJDL:
I would be interested in that same thing as well.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] molivas37:
If I am understanding correctly, they can be found in system/app/BlurPhone.apk. Open to view BlurPhone.apk and they sit in res/drawable-port-hdpi.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] yukmizzee:
I would like to know more about this also. BUMP
[Droid X Themes and Apps] williams37:
I had to do an extensive search for your answer.
[General Topics] ChazzMichaelMichaels:
So I went into Best Buy yesterday and wanted to see if they had a G2 to play with. I've noticed that there cell phone sales presence has become much more prevalent lately, but I hadn't dealt with any of the salesmen at this point.

I'll say as a side note, that the salespeople at T-Mobile stores have generally been helpful and informative. Unfortunately, few in my area have a live G2.

Within seconds of getting over to the counter, strong cologne alerted me to the presence of the salesman before the **** eating grin.

I asked if he had a live G2 or a Vibrant, and he had neither. I mentioned that I had done a lot of research and mostly wanted a little more face time with each phone prior to buying. I brought up Android 2.2 as a major consideration for me and the salesman very quickly told me "Oh, you didn't hear? Froyo is out now for the Vibrant. My phone downloaded it this morning (10/15)."

"Really? You have Froyo on your Vibrant? As of this morning?" I asked.

"Yup, I got the update this morning, it's awesome."

At this point, his cohort had come by. The competing fogs of Aqua di Gio and Hollister California were starting to make my eyes water. I can only assume the second monkey's fake sky blue contact lenses were there to protect his eyes from the flammable air.

"So I overheard you asking about Froyo on the Vibrant? He just got it on his phone this morning. It really screams on the Vibrant's dual core CPU." said monkey number two.

"Well," I said, "would you mind if I took a look at your phone then? See how Android is?"

"Sure, go for it!" said monkey number one.

Opened the browser, went to streetfire.net, and pulled up a Top Gear video, something that I know works on the G2 and displays the little Flash alert pane on the Vibrant. Shockingly, the video didn't play.

"So how's the battery holding up for you?" I asked.

"Oh, it's awesome. I haven't charged it for a day and a half and it's still at 35%. An that's with people playing with it at the store all day long."

"Wow, that's pretty amazing. I think I'll sleep on it, but maybe I'll be by tomorrow" (at this point I hadn't heard about the Froyo push in Norway and wanted to learn more)

"Cool, can I give you a call tomorrow to follow up?"

"Sure" (I proceeded to give him my @home number so he could sit there and leave voicemails all day if he wanted)

I really enjoyed how the two of them could just stand there lying their asses off after I told them I had done a significant amount of research already.

Anyway, enjoy; I found it amusing.
[General Topics] :
Yeah, that's corporate business for ya. People will do whatever they have to just to make a sale. Well, most people at least. But I agree, it's hilarious! For two reasons:

1.) Dual core? Really?! That isn't on any smart phone yet.

2.) For someone to boldly lie to their customers face is just ridiculous and shows ya that their are actually people out there that buy this crap.

I mean, would you constantly lie to people if you knew that your lies wouldn't be believed? I wouldn't. So that goes to show you how gullible some people are and how much they actually need to you the great searching tools that the internet has given us. :rolleyes:
[General Topics] chopper the dog:
They probably went from alphabetizing dvd's to selling phones in a week.

I hope you made no mention of xda. For our sakes.

good day.
[General Topics] htc fan89:
Wow, I went to future shop( its like best buy but Canadian) I asked for the HTC desire and he didn't even know what it was, plus it was right behind him LOL
[HD2 General] ajchandler:
Everytime the HD2 starts up it gives this really high pitched "DING!!!" and it is very annoying to me and everyone around me. I can't find any settings to turn this off. Is it just the energy rom I'm using or is it universal to the hd2? Please help!!!
[HD2 General] Richy99:
when did the issue start?
[HD2 General] Don001:
I was using Energy ROM a while ago and can remember that I did not come across this problem, as above has said, when did it start, when you installed the custom ROM or after a while?
[HD2 General] ajchandler:
OMG I found it!!!! It was the voicemail notification. I feel like an idiot but that was the most annoying sound ever!!! "Alert-Shine". Gag me with a spoon please!!!
[HD2 General] Don001:
Lollll, fix of the day!!
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
:D:D:D ha ha WTF does that mean? :confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 General] hg3atintin:
I think the spoon is a substitute for a penis...
[HD2 General] ajchandler:
I don't know what it means really, my dad just used to say it when we were kids.
[HD2 General] Don001:
Lol!! This thread is taking a turn for the worst here, this is starting to get dodgy
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I think that statement says more about you tha it does about the OP.....:confused::confused::confused:

Lol ok, just curious because Id never heard it before....... :D

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetracortica:
or can someone confirm to me that it's lost forever so i don't even have to try asking anymore, thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gingerbread Man:
The only way to get them back is if you ran the sony ericsson backup / restore before hand at some point or backed up manually or saved to your sim card. This is the only ways to get them back
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
SG Buddies!

Was wondering if you all have any info when we'll get?

Or anywhere already started selling!:)
[Desire HD General] naimmkassim:
In s'pore not sure..but from htc malaysia, they said should sell early Nov..just rumors i heard..
[Desire HD General] override182:
I sure do hope Maxis will be launching it with HTC Malaysia before the 15th.. cant wait edi.. haizz
[Desire HD General] eozen81:
May I ask that it will be possible to buy it simfree/unbranded from Hong Kong for the first launches? I hope HTC will keep it's words and start selling this in November as they told.
[Desire HD General] v-b-n:
Hopefully November, anyways I already ordered from Clove ... I believe the cost difference wont be much :)
[Desire HD General] eozen81:
So you order it from an England site right? How about custom tax to clear it?
[Desire HD General] wonderwout:
This link provides some 'official' info on Asian release dates:

http://panzerpuff.wordpress.com/201...-and-desire-z-prices-release-dates-announced/
[Desire HD General] eozen81:
Link is broken that, Could it be refer to this one ?

http://www.htc.com/www/press.aspx?id=146348&lang=1033
[Desire HD General] wonderwout:
Link repaired. Yes same info + this link:

http://www.htc.com/sea/press.aspx?id=146350&lang=1033
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
cool. u might be on of the first few in SG to get it.. rem to do some reviews ya
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
i've asked this htc sale's person from funan's AAA's -

She said that it's like 22nd onwards that the phone will start selling.

Idk how true man.

Keep our fingers crossed.

Nov is a long wait to be honest.

24 hours each day

LOL
[Desire HD General] taz5176:
so it's oct or nov 22nd onwards?
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
around oct 22 should be.

So unfair uk gets it first.

It's a taiwan brand isn't it.

:(
[Desire HD General] eozen81:
Yeah, as I told before, it's so odd that a Taiwan company starts to launch and sell first it's new devices apart from Asia.

It's like Steve Job makes to launch new Iphone in China :D Anyway I am checking Hong Kong simfree retail sellings on a daily basis because a friend of mine will visit Hong Kong between November 16-20, that's my only luck. I am praying that Desire HD will be in shops in until then :D
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
Just make sure he does visits the right part of HK.

Idk, but i've been to the wrong places to shop.

Wasted my trip.

back to the topic.

Yes! it's sad that htc sells it to UK first.

Ah well it's kay.

Just a few days difference.

Though i really want it now!

hahahah! :)
[Desire HD General] eozen81:
I guess you are an expert about that :D Is there any spesific shop name that you can advise me to buy a simfree HTC?

A friend told me so :
[Desire HD General] v-b-n:
Yes, no taxes for this and no VAT since we are outside EU :)

Mustafa guys gave me a hint that they may get few next week .... but of course nothing is official :D
[Desire HD General] v-b-n:
Sure ... will do
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
wah serious ah!? how much will it be? local sets or overseas sets? If they are not bullsh*tting, that's very very fast man since telcos will only get it like 1 mth later..
[Desire HD General] tigabert:
Hi vbn,

I think you still need to settle the 7% GST tax when it arrives in Singapore Customs before the DHL guy delivers it to you.
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
a lil upset that desire z was launched.

guess hd's gonna take awhile
[Desire HD General] auricom:
I'm not too keen on its looks department, though... The wait continues :/
[Desire HD General] GeSte:
Hate to tell y'all this.... Singapore is only a small market, compared to rest of world.

Starhub is probably trying to maximize its deals with different handseta and rip off its customers.
[Desire HD General] stuVM:
that is very true.

speaking with a person from HTC. he was saying end of the month early december.

also would you really want a 1st series DHD? most 1st series are full of bugs and problems. i would rather a little extra wait and have 1 with no bugs.

if you cant be bothered waiting any longer you can order from australia

mobicity is shipping DHD and has been since end of october
[Desire HD General] kyang:
Desire Z is definitely out, saw it on singtelshop.com
[Desire HD General] kyang:
Come on bro, all phone will have bugs here and there. Even the revolutionary iPhone also cannot escape this fate. This is how it is, no matter how they patch, still will have some loopholes .

Nothing is perfect in this world.
[Desire HD General] Kingken:
hopefully it will be in soon... agree that nothing is perfect but so far so gd for my nexus 1 and i must say that i am also waitin for DHD....
[Desire HD General] LittleMerc:
I have gotten a ready stock seller in Ebay to get my DHD and they said it will reach Singapore in about 2 days. Anyone interested to get a bulk order (for discounts maybe?) please send me a PM with your phone number so I can contact you guys to talk about it further. Anyways teh tarik yumcha session can be organized. XD
[Desire HD General] auricom:
do you mind linking the item here? or if it's not allowed, PM it to me just so i can see the seller feedback n the item being offered?

I'm definitely interested.
[Desire HD General] Frostyeo:
Awww man, im crazy about this phone -_- its taking so long~
[Desire HD General] gottessohn:
O ya.. pm me the link too :) thanks! Definitely interested..
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
Bros!

Sg mobile is selling!

Idk, but is this shop safe to buy from?

it says on the web it's selling!:)

http://www.sgmobile.com.sg/details/view/386
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
You should read the HWZ thread, someone went there and said that the shop don't have much traffic, but never mention about whether the stock is actually there or not, you might want to call them up. But do note that this shop is not those famous and reliable ones like whymobile or mobilesquare so got some risk...
[Desire HD General] tigabert:
I've bought some phones and traded in some phones with them before.

Generally, they are an 'Ah Beng' shop but I've transacted with them before with no problems.

Normally they compete in price with mobilesquare and they tend to be cheaper that mobilesquare, but dunno why they sell the DHD so expensive there. Most likely an export set.
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
and i thought export set should be cheaper than local sets....

but since they are the only ones carrying it, they can set whatever price they want.. so see if got any rich guys buy from them or not..
[Desire HD General] undadawg:
sigh.....still waiting for singtel to start selling it. Apparently there was a leak of the new dual core samsung galaxy s now i'm even more confused on whether or not to wait for the new dual cores or get the desire hd zzzzzz
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
lol played the galaxy tap

Should i get that instead?
[Desire HD General] paul886:
also thinking about this ...as the cost is almost equal

but it is not easy to carry
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
yeah. not easy to carry! plus no htc sense =(
[Desire HD General] paul886:
price of galaxy tab with contract($39 per month) is only $538,almost half of the price without contract...how much will dhd cost with the contract XD
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
dhd is really taking too long.
[Desire HD General] Frostyeo:
Yes seriously -_-

Btw can i just ask, would you suggest Singtel, Starhub or M1?

Currently on M1, but always gets cut off when in tunnels, and lecture halls, which is sort of irritating.
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
i thought the general impression is ST is always better? Tunnels i think all 3 will get cut off..
[Desire HD General] sunnysideup:
just got my DHD through a friend in the UK...arrived via DHL yesterday. could've gotten it earlier if i suppose, but i was waiting for SG to carry it. truthfully i dont think it makes much of a difference...will be slightly cheesed off if shops start to carry it this coming weekend LOL
[Desire HD General] gottessohn:
when did your fren start to ship the dhd?
[Desire HD General] stuVM:
just got my DHD from australia. gave up waiting for sg release. ordered it last wednesday
[Desire HD General] gottessohn:
so it took about 1 week to reach your hands! that's fast! how much did you pay?
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
well don't be surprised if the dhd is really launched this weekend...

anyway how about a short review? Stuff like the speaker.. is it really as crappy as other people said? Does the maps have turn by turn navigation or is it a paid feature?
[Desire HD General] stuVM:
paid $890 for the DHD and only $12 in shipping.

i could of paid a little more and had express 1-3 day express shipping by was fine with standard shipping
[Desire HD General] gottessohn:
Where did you order from.. the price is good! I wanna order too..
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
this weekend? i keep my fingers crossed
[Desire HD General] Daizzy:
Hi guys I'm in the Philippines and I've also been keeping track of the Desire HD since it was announced. (my blog also got mentioned here since I was trying to investigate the release dates for South East Asia.)

Recently one of our more popular retailers have removed the Desire HD in their price lists and this usually means that the unit is either low in stock or delayed. This happened just yesterday as their site used to have the unit listed. They have however put up a solid price quote on the Desire Z. Looks like the Z will release this week for us. This means that between the Philippines and Singapore, there is about a week or so of lag time in deployment.

What this looks like for the Desire HD is more delays. I'm not expecting it to arrive this month for the PH anymore at the very least. Computing the lag time, I think SG will probably get it just before November rolls over.

Still a long wait though. I've actually bought a brand new Desire recently instead of waiting. Lucky too that it was the amoled kind. HD just taking way too long for me.
[Desire HD General] Frostyeo:
Pray hard over this weekend~ T_T
[Desire HD General] LittleMerc:
I doubt it will be here anytime soon... Since even UK is facing shortage... Anyways enjoying my DHD already... The only thing I hate most is still the stupid speaker... ITS SO SOFT THAT EVEN WHEN MY PHONE RINGS, I CAN'T HEAR A DAMN SOUND!
[Desire HD General] auricom:
hey, where/who in Australia did you order it from? Did you also have to pay for the 7% GST?
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
How about if you choose a ringtone that sounds like those old school telephones? those 'telephone' ringtones that just goes 'ring ring' are usually the loudest that you can choose.

The reason I'm asking is if you choose a loud ringtone and put max volume and it's loud enough, then all is not lost, you can still artificially up the volume of the ringtones using another program like Audacity.
[Desire HD General] sunnysideup:
Hi sorry for the late response. speaker's not that fantastic, but the ringing tone is actually quite loud (it's on maximum, i chose the normal boring standard ring tone). tried turn by turn briefly, but if i remember correctly there was a system message that said it's not available "in your country" lol.

To be honest i haven't had the time to fiddle with the phone that much...was able to bluetooth my contacts over from my blackberry during initial setup, but somehow everything got duplicated a couple of times so i have 3000+ contacts now zzzz. nothing wrong with the proximity sensor.

with regards to the hardware / appearance certain common problems: battery cover not flush, minor gap on the sim cover. slight misalignment on the top of the "speaker"(?) - where your ear's supposed to be. battery life after initial 8hr charge lasted only abt a day. I'm quite easy to please, it's still a much needed improvement over my blackberry lol. i suspect most phones are better than my blackberry anyway haha.

will update all once i find out more interesting stuff http://media.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon11.gif
[Desire HD General] lukesky:
thanks for the review. I guess the speaker is really ok... depending on which ringtone you choose...

and seems like build problems still plague the DHD.. if i do get my set, i'll make sure I choose properly before buying..
[Desire HD General] hyocca:
relese it this weekend please!
[Desire HD General] sunnysideup:
Hi, my bad. Turn by turn seems to be working after downloading SG map (got my set from UK so not preloaded). 30 day free trial...no idea how much it'll cost after. chey. tried it for 5 mins...don't really know how to use it hahaha. sigh. good luck y'all...like lukesky says, check your set before u pay for it for any visible flaws lol
[Desire HD General] 3.6turbo:
Here in Taiwan its available- although in my case I CALLED HTC and asked over the phone, they would give me the runaround and say they have no idea when the phone is coming, and unavailable to preorder. However once you go into the store, and show them the money, voila, you are now the proud owner of an HTC Desire HD.....that was a few days ago...maybe more widely available now..
[Desire HD General] jlws90:
Thank for the short review. Anyway, do you have a guide how should one check before purchasing? Or do you have any photos that shows a 'perfect' condition phone?

Sorry for my noob question, but hope you can help...

Thanks!!
[Desire HD General] koolkalangdude:
Hey guys! just read this on the net a while ago. dhd and z will be launched in philippines on Nov.23, and its official!!!

check the link below

techpinas.com/2010/11/htc-desire-hd-and-htc-desire-z.html
[Desire HD General] gottessohn:
Hey, able to advise where did you order your set from? Quite a few of us from here interested to get from aus too :) hope to receive your reply soon..
[Desire HD General] sunnysideup:
wow i feel dumb now...paid almost SGD1k for my phone from the UK...my mate went into carphonewarehouse and got one off the shelf...apparently they were running low on sim-free DHDs. you guys should get it from australia if possible hahah, basket.

Hey sorry will try to take a couple of pictures over the weekend if possible. but a little googling will show the common hardware issues with pictures: battery cover not flush, sim cover gap etc...i guess you'll know once u hold the phone...it'll be funny if one side of battery cover is flush and the other end pops up a little haha...sian
