[myTouch 4G General] splat matt:
Another plus to the MT4G is the copy & paste function (similar to the iPhone). When I had my vibrant my large fingers struggled trying to select the right block of text I wanted. In addition you can copy & paste from emails too (not possible with the vibrant).

The mytouch 4G is much nicer than the vibrant for these reasons:

1) text is smoother & sharp (vibrant appeared blocky to me)

2) colors are realistic & balanced on the MT4G; whereas there vibrant had a blue-green cast and the display was overstaturated. Plus MT4G reads well in very bright sunlight and can dim very low for use in the dark.

3) battery life is much better on the MT4G with very active use (I could barely get 6hrs from my vibrant.

4) MT4G GPS is the best I have ever used on an all-in-one device (and some PNDs) fixes usually occur in ~3 secs with an accuracy of 2 to 5m! My vibrant at its best was 16 sec fix @ 20 to 30m and then would get to 9 to 15m around 60 to 90 secs)

So it would be very difficult for me to go from a MT4G (that will probably have CM soon) to another samsung product (like a nexus s) that would be completely open for dev and routine updates from google just because samsung still hasn't resolved issues with the vibrant and it had been out for 4 months! Even if google is doing all the software I am not confident in the product because google had issues with the htc nexus one that took many months to resolve. I can only imagine it being worse with a samsung device when google and samsung would need to collaborate a fix. Based on samsungs history software updates are slow if the ever do happen.

On another note I want a tablet and I have zero urge to get the galaxy tab just because samsung made it. I'll wait 6 months to see who else develops a HQ android tablet and will allow frequent updates.

If you choose to extend your contract, then you are not eligible for an upgrade until you are 22 months into that contract. You can get an early upgrade discount if you're at least 12 months into your contract, but the pricing will not be as discounted as it would be if you were eligible for a full upgrade.
[myTouch 4G General] Arcadia310:
I'm with you guys man. It sucks that the MT4G just came out and all these newer phones are getting released. Its rumored that the nexus s will have a dual core processor, do you think that's enough to switch from the mytouch?

I might sell my G2 (trying to get $400 for it off craigslist) then saving up for when the nexus s releases. It'll be a good phone since it isn't hindered by software, but that plastic build really bothers me. I also looooooove the hardware buttons on the mytouch.
[myTouch 4G General] jincuteguy:
Well the thing with cell phones these days are all like that. New phones are coming out every month so if you get a new phone today, there will be a new one coming out within a month. So you always have to keep up with them if you want to play their game. Unless you're rich you can't keep up with them. They just want your money
[myTouch 4G General] kgbkny:
It was me. I actually said that I'll try to avoid Samsung products in the future, as the Vibrant left a very bad taste in my mouth. They do make great TVs, but the entire Galaxy S fiasco makes me question their product support.

Agreed 100%. The unsatisfied Vibrant owners (and there are many) will not buy the Nexus S. The unsatisfied Behold II owners will not buy the Vibrant or the Nexus S. Then again, with close to 10 million Galaxy S phones sold worldwide, I'm sure Samsung doesn't care.

I'm just glad that the MT4G came out when it did, as I was past the point of frustration with the Vibrant. I actually came pretty close to getting a G2 (an awesome phone, by the way), but the MT4G was announced and I forced myself to wait.
[myTouch 4G General] PolishDude:
lol if that was the case everyone would be doign that, you cant get another phone at a significant discount until 22 months into your contract
[myTouch 4G General] Ace42:
Why did Google switch from HTC to Samsung as their hardware maker?

Did their partnership end or something?:confused:
[myTouch 4G General] HeavyComponent:
Wow it looks really nice! I like the physical appearance more then the MT4G, but I'm sticking with the MT4G. :)

I have the screen where the phone and computer have a ! between...how do I get into download mode from here so I can use Odin??? I've tried the vol up + vol down + power button and also tried using the command 'adb reboot download' and neither of those work......
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman2002:
Try this.

Open Odin

Remove battery/sim/sdcard

Put battery in

Hold only the volume buttons

Plug USB in

If this doesnt work do the process again but only holding up or down, not both at the same time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamcombat:
Thanks it worked!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mitalis:
I know there are several threads out there that have AOSP MMS.apk files, however I haven't been able to come across one that fixes the voicemail text message issue.

Has anybody had any luck modifying the MMS.apk file to prevent this?

It's my understanding the Samsung Galaxy 4G uses the default Messages application and I'm assuming they also fixed it so that users don't get voicemail text messages.

If anybody has a working AOSP Mms.apk file out there that works w/ the EVO and blocks those voicemail text messages I'd be extremely grateful if you could share it.

Thanks in advance,

Does anyone else have hinge problems even though when they first got the phone the hinge was solid? My hinge has been solid from day one. That is, until today. Now it seems to flop around like crazy. If so, how would I go about returning it for a replacement? Further, will the replacement be a new phone or a refurbished?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hansalvato:
i called htc and they said they dont have the "parts" to repair it they dont send you a replacement we just have to wait for the "parts" i guess :(

[ROM][07/18/11] Virtuous Sense v2.0.0 :: Enhanced & Optimized Stock ROM (2.42.405.2)

Virtuous Sense is a custom ROM for the HTC Vision series of phones (G2, DesireZ, etc). The goal is to provide a simple, Sense-based, mostly-stock ROM based on the official Desire-Z Sense ROM with essential bug fixes and only subtle enhancements. Virtuous started on the HTC Droid Incredible and is currently one of the most popular ROMs for that device. Virtuous for the Incredible has over 6000 users with an established reputation for stability; which we intend to continue for Vision users.

Features

Based off the official DesireZ Sense ROM (WWE 2.42.405.2), deodexed and zipaligned.

Pre-rooted with the latest version of Superuser and modified ramdisk to allow adb remount, mock locations, etc.

Wifi calling included and fully functional, conditionally installed for T-Mobile USA users only.

Optical trackpad unlock/wake.

Enhanced reboot options built-in, allowing for booting into recovery, bootloader, hot boot, etc.

Virtuous Sense custom kernel with overclocking daemon (no need for SetCPU/Tuner). Screen Off: 245760 / 599040 (conservative). Screen On: 245760 / 998400 (ondemand).

IO optimizations such as use of ext4 for all mounts and larger read-ahead buffer for improved sdcard performance.

Updated versions of all Market-available apps.

All Market-installable apps installed in /data/app. These apps are automatically installed for you both on initial install and after a factory reset/wipe. There are custom scripts to use Android's package manager (pm) to manage these apps, which ensures they are installed properly.

Added applications: ChromeToPhone, Google Voice and Titanium Backup. Since these are Market apps, they are automatically installed in /data/app for easy removal if desired.

Bloatware, defined as anything you could easily choose to download from the Market yourself, has been removed.

Disabled boot animation audio.

Automatic Virtuous OTA upgrade notification and installation via ROM Manager.

blah the rom is ok but htc sense just isnt for me lol .. i did like htcsense.com though that part was cool buuuut im a stock android kinda guy
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hgmarcia:
This rom is beautiful.

Thank you!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lord_of_Tech:
Nice!

Very nice rom.

However can't install latest Flash Player from marketplace.

Other apps install fine so far though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sv3nt3k:
So far, the installation went flawless! Just getting a different feel of HTC Sense. This is really wear Titanium shines as backing up apps is such a god send.

EDIT: My only gripe is that I paid for the premium version of ROM Manager via Paypal, got the Premium, but installed this and lost it. =/ Is there any way for me to get it back, especially after paying for it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lord_of_Tech:
found solution

I had to uninstall the existing flash player from 'manage applications' in settings.

then the one in marketplace was able to install.

Great rom!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gaalaagaa:
So whats so great about this release? Not trying to be ungrateful i honestly just want to clear the doubts
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sv3nt3k:
It's a modified version of HTC Sense with a couple perks that he explains in his post. It's nice and all but I got too adjusted to the stock feel of Android. HTC Sense is really nice, very graphical and user friendly, but I'm reverting back. Maybe once this comes out of the beta, I'll head on back to it.

But it's good! Try it out for kicks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PvtKrebs:
what should i be using to hide my applications from my app drawer? do i have to download a launcher just for this purpose?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jerrycycle:
You can use titanium to freeze the app. If you ever want it back then defrost. This, freeze and defrost, only works in the paid version.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PvtKrebs:
thanks, i hadnt thought of that originally, but its not quite what i want though. i want to have shortcuts to apps on my home screens but not in my app drawer. similar to what launcher plus had. obviously i cant use launcher plus if i want the sense UI provided by this rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gjm777:
I just place a folder on the desktop and put all the shortcuts i need in there. I was using launcher pro before this , but I still prefer Sense. There are just so many features that it's hard to go back to stock.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cold0ero:
Just curious... if I install the bacon, will I lose any functionality with the ROM? Say something like the FM radio or camera?

Does anyone else's text message window jump upwards when using the physical keyboard to respond?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Crusher16:
Yep, mine does it too
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ThaGeNeCySt:
Ah ok thanks. I thought it was just me. I'm going to use handcent to see if it continues. That's honestly the only issue I can think of. Scary to think this is only version 0.6.

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gjm777:
Speaking of text window, has anyone figured out how to make the microphone button work? It shares the locale EN so i try to click on it (not using the keyboard in this mode) and it just brings up options for the keyboard. Maybe we could program a button on the physical keyboard to be a mic button?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cold0ero:
The microphone button works by holding down that button until it turns into a mic and then it will accept voice commands.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gjm777:
Nice.

Trackpad wake/unlock

im having trackpad wake issues, seems trackpad wake will only work right after phone locks, if you wait some seconds later it will not work.

perm rooted s-off, i have htc desire z, wiped cache and dalvik, installed:

Virtuous 0.6.0 , applied 0.6.1 right after, then evil-cm bacon bits then rebooted

Everything works except trackpad wake when phone locks for more than a couple of seconds.

any fix?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
So far only stock kernels work with trackpad wake. Noone has found a fix as of yet. CM bacon, and cool's kernels break trackpad wake.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NXUS:
completely broken or semi-broken like mine where it will work right after it locks?

edit: and to fix this and use trackpad wake again i need to reinstall virtuous and the patch again and leave Bacon bits off?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
for me, to get a successful sense rom flash:

Flashed back to stock rom(i always have a back up)

From rom manager, flashed the original virtuous sense rom and wiped cache

Went back to rom manager, and flashed the update for this rom

once again(if you want to overclock), went to rom manager and flashed evils BB kernel

and boom. so far no issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NXUS:
trackpad wake work for you?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
actually no, good point. as said before i dont think there is a fix for that yet. but i guess i can deal with not having that although it would be nice. im use to having to unlock from the top. i think ill survive, for now ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NXUS:
if you reflash virtuous 0.6.0 then the patch WITHOUT bacon bits trackpad wake/unlock works perfectly!!!

i dont know what bacon bits adds but im not missing anything i didnt have :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
well bacons bits adds overclock, but that breaks trackpad unlock. but i do have a question.

Can anyone get there email to work? i use yahoo, and my email alot and thats something that i need to have. it ALWAYS says that i dont have my password/username inputed correctly when i know i do. anyone else?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NXUS:
"ROM DETAILS:

Includes overclocking kernel module, which can be enabled either manually or using a Virtuous-provided init script patch load automatically on startup. Run "insmod /system/lib/modules/z_oc.ko" from adb shell to try it out.

You can change the val= part to what you feel safe with, but like I said, Don’t go much over 70. 74 is the highest limit comfortably reached and has given the user 1.42ghz. But I would stick to 70 and below."

this will give you overclock i just run insmod /system/lib/modules/z_oc.ko and i dont set any value and i overclock to 1ghz and keep trackpad wake

as for yahoo email, sorry, only use gmail and hotmail and they both work fine
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
I downloaded the Virtuous 0.8.0 rom, extracted it to a folder, went into system/customize/MNS and took the default.xml file from there, opened it up with wordpad, scrolled all the way to the bottom of the document, second up from the bottom you'll find this below, now just change the text (I highlighted it in red) that says "HTC_DesireZ_A7272/1.0" to say "Nexusone",

<!-- MMS UA string -->

<module name="MMS">

<function name="ua_string">

<set name="single">

<item name="value">HTC_DesireZ_A7272/1.0</item>

</set>

</function>

</module>

when your done it should look like this, but not highlighted in red of course:

<!-- MMS UA string -->

<module name="MMS">

<function name="ua_string">

<set name="single">

<item name="value">Nexusone</item>

</set>

</function>

</module>

Now I saved this new default.xml file to my tools folder in my AndriodSDk folder, this can be diffrent for you, but you need to navigate to where ever it is you saved the (new)default.xml file at.

Next, boot into recovery and wipe, then reinstall a fresh copy of Virtuous 0.8.0. now stay in recovery and hook your phone up to the computer and open a Command prompt. Navigate where you saved the (new)default.xml file to, in my case AndriodSDK/tools, but yours can be diffrent.

Next open adb shell and type Code:

# mount /system

# cd /system/customize/MNS

# rm default.xml

then exit back to $ level and type Code:

$ adb push default.xml /system/customize/MNS/

Next reboot and setup just as you would any new rom, it wont work just by pasting the (new)default.xml file into the /system/customize/MNS folder. You need a fresh install so that you can go thru the complete start-up process again. Remember this will wipe your phone just like installing a new rom, so you can use something like titanium backup to restore apps and settings.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] corrado85:
also forgot

- when an incoming call comes, the screen will not turn on, but the trackpad light will start flashing like normal. I have to miss the call literally by the time i get the ld screen to light up. also this happened 4 times which is when an incoming call arrives, after 1-2rings it will disconnect on them quickly turning it into a missed call. that should not be happening.

I thought maybe it is a bad flash, but I've flashed it twice, reinstalled all apps from scratch, re-sync yet these problems re-occur.

I always want to give cm6.1.1 a try, but then I always think what I'm leaving if I give this rom the boot. I like eberthing sense has to offer and I don't want to give it up. Except, the market is annoyingly slow. But I'm not sure why it's doing that.

I know what you mean on this. I love what Sense offers but I hate that the battery life and performance are much better on CyanogenMod. I may switch back when Gingerbread is on CM just to check it out but I have a feeling I will stick with this rom (especially if the battery life gets better).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
I've found the opposite to be true -- I get better battery life with this ROM than the stock G2 ROM or Cyanogenmod.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theXeffect:
if possible i would like to see sense with more black or carbon fiber look...like the nexus s....example the setting on home screen n on the pulldown bar....maybe that would help the battery life.... :)

What can be expected in further patches and or updates? I'm not sure what else could be improved!

Also evil or rmk, is the latest market installed with thid rom? Or is there a later on that can be flashed that would work well? I looked in some other posts but I'm confused to if I have the latest one, and if its possible to flash another?

Also, maybe an addon for future updates: possibly include custimizable rosie keymapping for the home screen buttons? While I do know there is a way to install them, it would be brilliant to include them in the rom! Thanks fellas. A donation is on the way.

I don't know if I got a bad d/l or what, but everytime I load up 0.8.0 it goes into a bootloop. I've tried everything, I have it on my sdcard, and I've tried rom manager. Fresh wipe, cleared caches. Don't know what's up?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patoberli:
You might have a broken download. Try to download it again and put in on the sd card and install it again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
Yeah, I would try another download.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
Alright, going to try this again, fresh wipe, then install fresh d/l.

Originally had 0.8.0 up and running, and I flashed the media patch to help the green screen and it seemed that is what caused everything to go nuts. Then every time I would start the phone, it would guarantee a bootloop, and everything would force close, in between the booting, and the htc screen.

Love this ROM though....
