1- just because its the best in europe doesnt mean its the best world wide.

the evo 4 G destroys it and its an older phone. the DHD is stipped down version in terms of hardware " dont give me newer cpu crap that no one actually use. the android is running super fast on a hd2 . let alone evo "

2- just because you and others dont use the front facing camera doesnt mean its not important. most of my calls are video calls for your info. its more fun and i actually see the girl/guy i am talkin to before we decide to go out and have fun etc

3- dlna is nice. but i am sorry. not all HDtvs have dlna. including my 2 years old Sony Bravia . full hd. hdmi port. no dlna " as far as i know. nothing in the options when i checked "

should i go now and buy a new HDtv ? please. and many others are like this too.

sure the HDMI output is NOT a standard on Mobiles. but the EVO has it. why on earth they took it off from DHD. they are friggin charging the same price for evo as dhd. why should i be ok with the dumped version ?

i am sorry you are ok with the dhd. i hope u have fun with it. but there is no way in hell i am going to let htc get my money on this.

they should have a released a superior phone than Evo considering the evo is old now. but no. we get a worst version for the same price. and on top of that, it has some hardware problems.

oh yeah no **** off

4- the Evo is CDMA only. so its not released any where outside the US. and its sprint exclusive too. so even if i import it. it wont work
[Desire HD General] teihoata:
How about a newer gpu? I couldn't run asphalt on my nexus one smoothly (it ran the same chipset as the evo) but it runs just fine on my desire hd. I suppose the bump up in inbuilt memory as well as the increase in ram means it is still stripped down hardware wise? It's a 50% increase in both cases.

Do you really walk down the street while your video calling? People who video call in public are ignorant lol don't you use facebook to see who you are going to date?

DLNA is standard for most tv's today, if you don't have a compatible t.v. for dlna then use a ps3, xbox 360 or a computer to stream it. If you're going to watch something off of a t.v. you're more likely to stream over dlna than carry a cord around with you. Who watches stuff off of their phones anyway, get apple or google tv if your serious about your media

We have an updated chipset, what more could you want?

Sure people talk about the gpu and cpu improvements but it also brings support for more video codecs (we can play divx natively whereas the old snapdragon can't), uses less power and has the 8th generation built in gps engine (its a lot quicker to lock on). Not to mention speeds of up to 14.4mbps HSPA+. "4g" that you are referring to barely reaches 3mbps for most people in america. All of these features are things people use on a daily basis.

You sir are crazy to prefer the evo over the dhd
[Desire HD General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
you couldnt run asphalt 5 on nexus ? what on earth you were doing to ur phone? i was running it fine on a friggin HD2 man :/

also. since when CPU run asphalt 5. i hope you are talking about the GPU.

all this crap about new CPU/ GPU doesnt really mean anything. the galaxy has a monster of gpu. and what games take advantage of that? zero .nothing really is new in this tech crap. more of a tweek to the CPU. the software isnt even supporting it. i have smooth experience in my hd2 after tweeks. and so in my galaxy s. " i had hd2 "

my point is users like you and i are not noobs. we come here and tweek devices so we dont go like morons and buy anything new a company spit on our face under new cover and call it a day. dont be that guy

yeah most of my calls are really using the front facing camera. specially when i am inside home " my home or friends home" nothing has to do with dating. and no wtf i dont use facebook to date.

sure i can use my DLNA on ps3 or my 360. but the idea of mini hdmi output was if u want to watch at your friends house. why would i plug my mobile to tv if i am at home already and can plug my external hard disk or laptop ?

also, why we are arguing about this? EVO has hdmi output. DHD doesnt. EVO win. period. whatever u will ever use it or not. its there for you if you ever did.

same thing for front cam. 1 day you might be kinky and ur at your work. u call ur gf at home and tell her to show u her ass so u can rub 1 in the bathroom office. the cam is there she can use it lol

are you trying to bring video codec to this now ? where is my old dusty htc magic. let me download vplayer from the market. it will play everything. put a rock in its face and it will play it.

dont bring something not related to the cpu please.
[Desire HD General] HacKage:
See when people try to use the kickstand as a valid point for how the EVO is a better phone, you just realise that they are clutching at straws.

Front facing cameras have been available on phone in Europe for near enough 6-7 years, times I or anyone else I know have used one = Zero

The "4G" argument, fair does the US has WiMAX, but it is not fully available all over the US.

The kickstand, come on. Never have I ever thought to myself, know what, I wish my phone had a kickstand so I could watch stuff a little easier.

The DHD has an upgraded CPU and GPU, that right now might not have many more advantages over the EVO, but in the future it will do. When the OS becomes more demanding, the older first generation of Snapdragon devices will become less supported officially for updates etc. That coupled with 256mb more RAM backs that up.

The HDMI port is a bit of a bummer, but for me it is hardly a deal breaker. It would be nice to have, but I can just stream to my PS3 or my TV wirelessly, seems like a fair trade off. Why go digging around the back of my tv which is a cable jungle when I can just do it through wireless?

Anyone who says that the lack of front camera or kickstand is a deal breaker is obviously either a total idiot who just wants more more more regardless of how much they will use it, or is just a spec junkie who wants to brag or look cool online.

The vast majority of phones out there dont have a kickstand or a front facing camera or HDMI out, does that make them bad phones, not at all. It is only recently that people have became fixated by such things, to the point where they are fooling themselves into believing that they matter.
[Desire HD General] bobbyphoenix:
Just my thoughts. To me the DHD is the next step up. I would say it's personal choice, but really the tech is much better with the DHD. I'm in the states, and am much happier with the DHD (even on 2G only. I'm always by wi-fi, so it doesn't matter) than I would be with the Evo. All the things the DHD can do blows the Evo out of the water. Maybe it is just me, but like one poster pointed out, some of the things the DHD can do can't be matched by the Evo. Plus Evo is Sprint only, and I'm on T-Mobile, and plan to stay here. There is no other 4.3 Android for T-Mobile (not that I would care since the DHD rules the world).
[Desire HD General] mazzuli:
1. I'm sorry but the DHD actually has faster hardware than the EVO, end of discussion.

2. I have NEVER seen anyone use a front facing camera on a phone. Why would HTC include one if 90% don't want/need it? It's like demanding a 6,3mm jack on the phone because a couple poor guys have headphones that use a 6,3mm jack even though 95% of people use 3,5mm.

3. A lot of new TV's do have DLNA even though your cheap Bravia doesn't. Again, seriously. How often do you use a HDMI output? Again, I have never seen anyone use it.

Why are you even comparing DHD to the EVO when they are not even intedended to be sold on the same continents for god sake. Besides Android is way better imo than WM which I believe the EVO has. Oh and no, it doesn't have hardware problems except for the first batch of phones, so no, you can't generalize that "the DHD has hardware problems"..

PS. Learn to write for God's sake.
[Desire HD General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
All i see is f"""king stupid replies about " i dont use it so its not important" crap.

None is even semi smart with decent iq to know that the US got more hardware extras for their buck than the rest of the world. Seriously

Oh and now evo has WM....

I give up. I will bail out of this thread. If i read more of this **** my iq is gona drop
[Desire HD General] HacKage:
More hardware extras for their buck? So let me get this straight, you would rather have a kickstand than a faster CPU/GPU combo?! You would rather have a front facing camera than an extra 256mb of RAM?! That's pretty sad tbh. The hdmi output requires a cable to be bought. The DLNA doesn't need anything to be bought unless you have an old tv in which case you will be able to buy the HTC media link.

So let's recap, you would rather NOT have an upgraded CPU, upgraded GPU, 50% more RAM, but as long as you have a kickstand and front facing camera that's better. LOL!!
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
agree 100%!

the DHD is simply a better phone than the EVO. End of story. Anyone trying to claim that the kickstand and FFC make the EVO better than the DHD are fooling themselves.
[Desire HD General] Lunatictz:
Sorry i just couldnt stop myself from doing this>

FTW!

but yeah seriously, if you're from US, by all means go for EVO, you outside get Desire H,enough said.
[Desire HD General] Evostance:
Right...it destroys it? Desire HD in bold; Evo 4g in normal:

Display Type: LCD 16M colors | TFT 65K colors

Internal Memory: 1.5GB, 768MB Ram | 1GB, 512MB Ram

WiFi: B/G/N + DNLA | B/G

CPU: QSD8255 (45nm) | QSD8650

If you knew your stuff you would realise the new Snapdragons are actually smaller meaning less battery usage.

Do you do phone dating or something? I know what my friends look like and if I'm going to go out and see them I'm not going to video call them. If I want to video call, i'll use Skype for free. PS. Most people haven't got a front facing camera, don't want to, or having got the connection.

DNLA is moving forward, quickly. Don't have DNLA on your TV? Don't be a tool and buy a new TV. Use your common sense and go buy the cable to connect the Desire HD to the TV. Its about 1/1000th the price of a TV.

See above..

I think by now you should realise that the DHD is a much better phone than the Evo. Yeah, the Evo is good - but the DHD pushes the boundaries a little further.

Technology can only go so far at times. You'll be back in a few months moaning how the Desire HD is better than the Dual Core HTC's because the battery life is shocking
[Desire HD General] mazzuli:
Based on your writings I doubt your IQ can go any lower than what it already is.
[Desire HD General] quarintus:
Touch pro 2 is the best phone!!

...

Seriously, I would defend my phone if I had that one. NOw my touch pro 2 is broken and I ordered the DHD.

There is a lot of competition out there, not only the EVO 4G.

It's just what you prefer. Design?, the evo 4g probably wins. Inner hardware?, the dhd wins. The 4g has more outer hardware: kickstand, 2nd camera, etc.

So it does have more features. But then again, maybe it doesn't because HTC is comming with a lot of new features by software.

It's just what you like the most. When you only think of the phone design, the 4g wins. But then a lot of phones in the past were designed even better (touch pro 2 (A)) Fact is, the DHD has more power under the hood what makes it last a little longer.

Everyone uses their phone diffrently, so for the people who use the kickstand and front camera, go with the EVO 4g. But most people do not really use it, so the DHD probably is the better choice because it will last longer in the future.

The quality of a phone isn't just decided by strenght or just by design, but also the new technology. That's why a newer phone is almost always better then an old one.

in this case, there isn't really a winner.
[Captivate General] Lucke:
just out of curiosity, is it possible to set the GPS to stay "on/locked" with the screen off? Thats a big complaint i have about using some of the fitness tracking apps that track a route/distance via GPS.
[Captivate General] creepyncrawly:
I think you can work around that by using the "Get Postion Test" feature in LBSTestMode. Open LBSTestMode and start Get Position Test, then once you have a lock, hit the home button rather than the back button to return to the home screen and start you other app. This will keep Get Postion Test running in the background, and should keep the GPS on/locked. This works for me with mytracks, maps, etc.

You can start LBSTestMode several ways: an app from the market, or use anycut and set a shortcut to the Activity LBSTestMode, or there are different keypad combinations for both 2.1 and 2.2 roms. You should be able to serach these things out on XDA.
[Captivate General] newter55:
Or use tracker booster from the market

Other apps such as nav and tracks also keep gps on when they are in use

Sent telepathically using vulcan mind meld app.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Or you can use the Google's My Track app. It will keep the GPS on while recording tracks.

Ultimately, it is app's responsibility to keep the GPS on.
[Captivate General] newter55:
I mentioned that one but tracker booster is really the best solution as it only requests constant gps positioning so it is very light, resource wise

Sent telepathically using vulcan mind meld app.
[Droid Incredible General] logodude:
I have a dinc with imui rom and if i dont clear the data befor install, it starts fine but I dont have a phone app or conact app. The reason I dont want to clear data before install is I want to keep apps and also keep my progress in games I play (mainly angry birds) Aren't the phone and contacts apps system apps? So why does it matter if clear data? How can I fix this so I can use this rom I really like it and want to use it, but its worthless without a phone. help! thank in advance!
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Hey guys!

I am planning on getting the Desire HD next week(if it's available) and would like to hear some opinions...Coming from a Hero and a Desire I am used to having a large community behind my phone,making great and many things available for it.Do you think DHD will have such a community behind it?I for one am worried that so few people are visiting its forums(most out of curiosity) and that its development section is so small.Is it just too early to tell?I had bought all the phones I had until now quite some time after they had been launched(the Hero last Christmas and the Desire this July).

So what do you guys think?
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:
If you're looking for things like CM support you'll probably have to wait until there's a permanent root method. I think it's a bit too early for such things now though, new devices take a while to get through to devs or for a new dev to come onto the scene.

To be honest with you I think with the Sense UI and overall performance I get I will be happy to run stock with root. I've not been able to say that about a phone before, feels kinda nice.

Well pal,I don't have mine yet so I can't tell,but I think you're right.I can use the OC script with VISIONary and see what magic happens! :p

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] articoceanic:
Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to watch video files that are stored on my computer? I know you can do it in reverse through allshare, but i can't find any instructions on how to do it from computer to phone.

Basically i have windows xp, and some video films on my desktop in the "My Documents" folder. I want to basically hook my phone up to the wifi, and browse my "My Documents" folder, like i can do with my laptop and other computers connected to my router.

Anyone know how to do this. Have checked everywhere else and been unable to find a solution, maybe i missed it, but they all give instructions to do it in reverse.

Hi everyone,

I saw a case for the Iphone 3gs called skech.

It is very smooth and beautiful and i'm looking for somthing similiar for the Vibrant.

On their site: skechit, they have several products and they are all made of polycarbonate. I'm not sure which one I saw

Anyone has any suggestions for cases from that material?

Does every case that is made from that material will have the same feel?

thanks alot!

[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
the CPU has power states it probably just read the low power state and reported that

i get a similar thing with my computer when running benchmarks programs report 800mhz because its at idle before it starts so it reads the idle state then when the test starts and places load on the cpu it scales up to the full 3.8ghz

i assume the phone does something similar
