[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejorguille:
LOL @ all the fanboys....

The G2 is a great phone. It does everything I need, and its maybe 4x the speed of my old G1. 3D graphics are amazing, I was playing quake 3 with someone else today on my school network and my G2 was constantly going 55-60 frames per second while his DROID was at 20. The keyboard is amazing and the build quality is great, albeit it does come at a price: ITS HEAVY!!!! I alaways notice it in my pocket and its tiresome holing it up for a long call or something. That said, it has the best CPU available on the market and everything is smooth as butter.

The Nexus S on the other hand, will be much lighter and will come with stock android, and I don't think google will let them use their ****ty file system on such a high profile device. It will be lighyears faster than the vibrant. The SAMOLED screens are amazing; it is saturated, that's my only complaint, but the screen on my uncle's vibrant is really good. The colors are great, contrast is great, and have you seen the cool shutdown effect from gingerbread? Guess what, it will only work with SAMOLED displays. Why? Because of the way that the screens display black; it actually turns the pixels off. It will be bleeding edge and I really believe the build quality will be wayyy better than the vibrants. Just look at the design, the curves on the the S just screen sex to me.

Final call? It's you choice. The G2 is amazing and will not let you down, but don't let samsungs past mistakes stop you from considering the nexus S. Both are stock android, so luckily OS isn't a desiding factor. I guess the biggest question is, do you prefer a keyboard or a slim device?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheek360:
very well said, thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jas0nw0ng:
I don't think many can say it as clearly as you did. Also, something that I learned after I bought my phone, before you decide to purchase a phone that isn't yet offered, test the device to see how you like it. A selling point of the Nexus S will be that is has gingerbread with a S Amoled and stock android, but look at reviews and see if you can actually look at one in person before you buy it. I don't understand how so many people buy a phone without actually attempting to preview it first. (Note: Nexus S may not/probably will not be available in stores).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiNG OMaR:
In the end the Nexus S will still be made with the cheap samsung plastic... Pretty much an android dildo, or as I would like to call, a dildroid.

I don't need a phone with poor construction in my hand, Yes - I mean you Samsung. Looks aren't everything, but your not touching the hardware inside the device.

If it doesn't feel good in the hand then it's not worth buying.
[General Topics] xperiaforme:
I know there is Blink (which doesn't really work that well on my Xperia Mini Pro), BUT it is missing one important feature-you can't set different color led for different contacts. Will there ever be such an app?
[General Topics] xperiaforme:
Not for Blackberry, for Android, Xperia Mini Pro to be exact. BB has this sort of application quite covered with Buzz.
[HD7 General] Jibreil:
Overall after using an iPhone 2G - 4G for the past 5 years. I feel this phone is a major leap in context with UI, and on-screen keyboard.

The only thing that seems to be bothering me is the Proximity Sensor, everytime Im on a call the proximity sensor fails to keep the light off and the call gets ended or another call gets placed.

Is this a HTC design error? Or a problem with the OS?
[HD7 General] yly3:
It's obviously a faulty device. Fortunately very few HD7 suffer from this issue (while so many iPhone 4 have it) so I strongly recommend you get your device swapped asap.
[HD7 General] Jibreil:
Are you sure? As I hold the phone diagonally across the cheek it seems to work fine. But when I lower it downwards towards my shoulder the light comes on.
[HD7 General] yly3:
It's your call, but seing you actually having problems while making a call then I'd swap it.The promixity sensor should be working not worse than how it was meant to.
[HD7 General] Jibreil:
I do have long hair which usually is over my ears, may be that can be an issue. I'm just trying to analyze the problem here since its a grey market peace and will be difficult to swap for a newer one.
[HD7 General] yly3:
That may be the cause , I can't say a definitive "diagnostic" to your problem. All that I know is that from almost all the cases I know with P.S. problems the majority did have a faulty one. I see you are from India , did you buy yours from eBay ?
[Galaxy Tab General] murphycr:
I was going through uninstalling some of the stock applications I knew I wasn't going to use with Root Explorer and came across "LogMeIn Rescue", a remote access tool for support personnel. I personally am not particularly happy that came pre-installed as I am not comfortable with the idea of T-Mobile personnel having remote access to my Tab and promptly removed it. Has anyone else come across this? Can anyone provide insight as to why it is there?
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
Did you make a back up of it.
[Galaxy Tab General] murphycr:
Of course ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] secret me:
LogMeIn Rescue is for remote support, the way the tech works is the support agent (in this case t-mo) would attempt to create a remote access support session and give you a 6 digit code. You then enter the code into the logmein rescue app and it connects your device to the support techs pc/mac. I've used the support application on the tech end and the code must be entered into the phone app in order for it to connect (logmein offers a 14 day free trial). However, as of now, Android is not supported (there's support for pretty much every other platform) but i guess is on the drawing board. On T-Mo's end the idea is probably so the tech can help when a customer calls in, after all its easier to troubleshoot issues when you can see whats happening instead of just listening and trying to visualize it. This is just my guess based on my understanding of the technology.

Because Hulu blocks mobile browsers at this point. Apparently they are working on getting Hulu working on mobile browsers. Till then, change the browser user agent to Desktop (search if you don't know how) and access Hulu.

[Vibrant General] jzero88:
So it is true about the Nexus S. So what does that mean for us Vibrant users? Will the Rom ports be possible since it seems our phones are identical. What do you thinl?
[Vibrant General] DreamcastDC:
If the hardware is the same, I don't see why not it can't be ported.
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
Google might force samsung to NOT use its RFS tech though and other changes that might complicate things.
[Vibrant General] drewtang:
Considering the nexus s would be a developer type phone, would mean its aosp, and no OEM changes to it. So may make a port difficult. Part of the reason the cm team is having such difficulties getting a working port, is that 2.2 source for the vibrant is unavailable currently. So one would assume that without 2.3 source, we would see the same issue. But, I hope I'm wrong, I was thinking about the same thing today...
[Vibrant General] jamaroufi:
I'm willing to bet that the rom's would work, but would be missing things like gps, just like the international version ports did.
[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
As it is a developer phone the source code for it would be available shortly, therefore making porting easier.
[myTouch 4G General] Matt105:
This is a general question about Android I guess, but is there a way to make a big playlist all at once? Maybe by selecting multiple files? I see how to add each file one by one, but surely there's got to be a more efficient way..? Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 4G General] splat matt:
You could build the playlist in DoubleTwist (DT) and sync it from DT to your MT4G. You could even import iTunes playlists to DT then sync from DT to your phone if that applicable.

Benefit of using a music manager is your playlist has a back-up.

From the phone go to media room app select "playlist" under playlist tap the "+" icon to make a new playlist then select the menu hard button and "select all".

If you already knew this I'll eat some crow.
[myTouch 4G General] Matt105:
Nope didn't know you could select all like that! Thanks. Just sucks that it puts all those RockBand sound effects into it too :/

If I install an apk from adb : adb install apkname.apk where is the location that it sends the apk? Where does it install.

I've tried /data/app but not there.

pls advice.

P.S. I'm trying to pull apks from certain ROMs that I like and push to the ROM that I choose. please advice if there is something I should keep in mind as well!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Aphotix:
Typically it would be installed in /data/app /data/app-private or /system/app
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gottijr:
You're right

The confusion was that I pull an apk from system that's named a certain way and after i do adb install it changes name.

That's the reason for not being able to find it under the same name.

if someone has more experience maybe they can explain

p.s. Is there a way to do a WILD SEARCH FROM SHELL through adb? ex:

find *car*
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Mikey:
Be careful with what apps you pull, you might need more then just the apk ;)

Or some apps will lock you out of the market *hint* T-Mobile is one step ahead of the game ;)

Or simply, some apps are not compatible with the phone, yet :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peejabi:
Just got my HTC Desire yesterday.

I installed the HTC Sync software that came with the phone. After installation, it prompted me if i wanted to update to the latest version of HTC Sync. I did, and after installation, it asked me to if i wanted to restart my computer.

I exited all apps and restarted it. My laptop is running a 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium version. The laptop froze at the "welcome" screen.

It restarted again and I tried starting my laptop in safe mode. It didn't load also, and an option to start windows startup repair came out. but that didn't help either. it said that the startup repair can't fix my laptop.

i tried to start it in safe mode again, this time it loaded, but it took a very long time. i tried uninstalling htc sync from safe mode but it wouldn't. so i restarted my laptop again in normal mode and this time it still won't load. the same thing happens. it gets stuck at the welcome screen then after 5-10 minutes, it restarts by itself.

has anyone encountered this?

please help!

[HD2 General] nishankyadav:
Hey guys ,

i was thinking that it is mainly becuse of apps and games that people want android on htc hd2 since the other things can be done by themes etc,

so instead of making android for htc hd2 to flash from sd card why not try to make an emulator for htc hd2 which can run apk files or something like that since htc hd2 in wm6.5 also has enormous capacity

and i think with people in Xda doing so would be possible easily
[HD2 General] rukhi:
first off in my opinion i dont use android because of apps and ggames, i use it for the user friendliness :p plus its far batter to use then winmo. Second we dont actually flash android on HD2 we are sorta "Emulating" already over windows
[HD2 General] msnuser111:
actually,no not really. Haret kicks the windows kernel out of ram and boots into android. there is almost no part of windows left running at all. It's basically like dual boot except that it switches from windows>android while windows is running.
[HD2 General] Splder:
i get what your saying and i think its a good idea

if any of you have used linux on the PC there is a program called WINE(http://www.winehq.org/) that runs windows apps within the linux os i gess you want something like this

if there was something like that i know i would use it
[HD2 General] mmendez92:
guys, do you even understand how winmo programs even work? -_-
[HD2 General] nishankyadav:
Hey Splder ,

yes thats exactly what i am saying since there are already emulators for gba,gbc files(Gameboy) and even Psx(.iso) in hd2 so why not for .APK thats possible and i am working on it and i managed to install a basic apk but there were some errors

Hey Everyone,

Something weird is happening with my HD2 lately, every time i press the back button or any buttons on the device, my screen will become non-responsive meaning i can see the time change but im not able to touch anything. To get it back working i have to turn on and off the screen repeatively just for it to sense. After 5 minutes or so it will eventually start working which I'm able to send a text but as soon as i send it, my screen is not responding anymore.

The weird part is i can go back and see the screen change but unable to press anything. It's like the touch portion is dead. I did hard reset, task29, and reloaded a new radio on it.

Do anyone else have any other idea.

HSPL: 1.66

Radio 1.15.50

Rom: Dutty Something forgot now.

Anyone got any advice what i should do. Do you think HTC would cover it?

After further investigation it seems to be a hardware problem, only way to fix it is send it in to HTC and hopefully you still have warranty.
