Lol, steve jobs, iphone brand. Well like I said, my speeds ares always high on my vibrant I just wanted to trade my vibrant for higher internet speeds, but if its going to be the same for now, then I'll just wait.my phone has great I love it, I just needed to clear the networks differences and stuff
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Hmm, I just check mine, and swear a few days before it had the bar with 5GB limit at the end, and now it is gone, shows that I used 440MB in a week so far.

Well, I apologize for "come down to earth" comment :D - but I still think they cap us at 5GB, and then throttle down to snail
[Vibrant General] smutek:
Well, I've had my Vibrant for I guess about 3 months now and tried to like this phone but in the end I'm just not happy.

I've been with T-Mobile for a while so I called them today and asked what they could do for me to get me in a G2. They are sending a G2 out to me today for the discounted rate + rebate applied instantly, comes to $200 + $15 shipping charged to my bill. It should be here by Friday.

I've got a 20 day remorse period to try it out and, if I do not like it, I can return the phone for a refund.

So, hopefully I will dig it - and I am hoping that I wont have too much trouble moving my Vibrant to recoup the cost of the new phone.

I'm not one to watch movies, play games and such on my phone, so (samsung issues aside) I think this is part of the reason the Vibrant isn't the best fit for me.

I use my phone primarily as a communications tool - email, texting, calendars & appointments, RSS feeds, some web browsing - these are the most important things for me - so I'm not too worried about the downgrade in screens. Hinge issues aside, I'm excited for the track pad and a physical keyboard. I'm a pretty big dude and touch screen typing has been driving me nuts.

So yeah man, we will see how it goes. I'm actually pretty excited, and I'm happy that T-Mobile was willing to work with me.

Nice thread, although it is totally going to get buried lol.

Once you verify that information I recommend putting [REF] in the title and posting in the dev section... it's not Q&A so I think it's appropriate there... plus it looks like you've done a lot of research

I wonder if you guys can suggest me a Toshiba laptop for my wife, she´s not into games, basically she does autocad, illustrator and photoshop stuff.

Any recommendation will be welcome (link if possible US based) :)

Thanks
[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
Price range? :) And does it have to be Toshiba :D
[Off-topic] Master™:
If she isnt into games.. then you might want to get her this:

Is there an app that allows me to only let the phone auto-sync when it's on wifi?
[Android Apps and Games] zmbutt:
I was going to ask the same question, but there's already one, so I just bumped ! lol

is there any way, to bind the Background data sync with Wifi ?

I mean, when i turn on the wifi it will turn on the "back ground data Sync" and when turn the wifi off, it will turn off the BG data Sync too ?
[Android Apps and Games] craigacgomez:
Tasker should allow you to do this...
[Android Apps and Games] thatguyzx:
I blocked certain apps from 3g access with Droidwall, and they seem to jump to sync when I go on wifi. It's free on market.

Tasker works too.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
hmmm... if I'm not mistaken these are the minimum system requirements for gingerbread:

Processor speed: 1GHz

RAM capacity: 512MB

Display size: 3.5"

I'm not saying its not possible... but it is unlikely.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
Firefly requirements are for quitters lol

Remember back in Nov 2009 the g1 wasn't suppose to run android 2.0 os??

Early Jan 2010 android 2.1 os wasnt suppose to be for g1?? Android 2.2 os in june 2010??? Get my drift?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
lol true, but 2.1 and 2.2 did not have minimum system requirements that were beyond the g1.

the reason for the requirements in 2.3 is that everything will be hardware accelerated, which will be awesome on phones/tablets that can handle it, but wont run at all or will run horribly on lower spec phones. (it would be like trying to run an xbox 360 game on the original xbox hardware)

even if you could get rid of the hardware acceleration (which is likely hard coded into the os) that would mostly make the update pointless, a lot worse than taking JIT and flash capability's out of 2.2

however, I'm not saying it cant happen cause your more than right lol

the seemingly impossible has been done before, and done pretty well :)

dont let me get your hopes down :)

I think it would be awesome as well :-D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
Yup,but im still going to update to new android phone high end device. Just because adobe flash player only work for ARM-7 processor aka A-8 Cortex phones. ugh adobe with their restrictions.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
yeah for real :-P

i ended up upgrading to a vibrant, flash is nice (and doesn't lag like the droid2)

but I still use my mytouch alot, the battery lasts forever on it (especially compared to the vibrant lol)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
Which mytouch 4g or mytouch 3g slide?

Im going to get the g2.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
lol the original mytouch 3g basically the g1 with more memory but minus the keyboard.

I upgraded to the vibrant mostly because of development potential, its as easy to work with as the nexus one but its more powerful.

the g2 is a great phone though :)

if it wasn't so hard to work with, being all hardware locked and such, I totally would have gone for it, but I hear its a really nice solid choice despite that :)

and eventually they'll break the locks I'm sure.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
I know about mytouch 3g having more ram and memory but hack g1 is basicly better then mytouch. Same can be said about mytouch being better then an mytouch3g slide when unlock.

I dont like samsung because of what their doing with their updates. Just like behold 2 their taking their sweet time to update the samsung galaxy phone in the usa.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr123:
Ignore any reports of system requirements for 2.3. There are NONE LISTED. Any system requirements listed by any website at all anywhere are made up nonsense to support their chicken little theories of a lack of support. For whatever reason, they think it makes them more credible than not having it. Remember that these nonsense websites previously used LIMITED INTERNAL STORAGE to forecast that 1.5 would never be able to run on DREAM. Well now that THAT has been PROVEN to be B.S., they are making up even more nonsense requirements that have no basis in reality.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
well obviously 2.3 has not been released so most everything is speculation, however one of the main attractions to 2.3 is supposed to be hardware acceleration (like JIT was the attraction to 2.2) unfortunately no matter what the specifications turn out to be, hardware acceleration on a g1 would be pretty bad... so even if it does get ported, would there be a point? similarly 2.2 has been ported to the vibrant however there's not much JIT support on the hummingbird processor so there's not a huge improvement.

but if hardware acceleration is hard coded and cannot be turned off in 2.3 then no matter what the minimum requirements, its doubtful the g1 would handle it.

also there has not been an official 2.2 release for the g1 so I doubt they will try for 2.3.

Google officially stated that they did not thing the g1 would go beyond 1.6. (even though there were rumors of g1's running 2.2 at Google)

(and its not like you cant do it anyway but officially there is not likely to be any support)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
hmmm.. the mytouch is exactly the same in every way to the g1 except you have more memory. so hacking either is exactly the same only the mytouch 3g still has more memory (and the 32B is easier to hack than the G1 but the 32A is harder). the only reason a g1 could be better is because of the physical keyboard. there's really no getting around hardware, either you have it or you don't.

and a mytouch is quite a bit behind the slide even when hacked.

the slide has more memory even than the new mytouch 3g's so a hacked slide would be better than all mytouch 3g's and the g1. still a hardware thing, the phone with the best hardware will nearly always be the better phone as long as it has the software to back it up.

so it makes somewhat of a heirchy of phones:

G1-----------------192MB RAM 256MB ROM 528 MHz CPU

Mytouch 3g 32B----192MB RAM 512 MB ROM 528 MHz CPU

Mytouch 3g 32A----288MB RAM 512 MB ROM 528 MHz CPU

Mytouch Slide------512MB RAM 512 MB ROM 600 Mhz CPU

What ever you guys do don't get the vibrant you need to ocuv and lagfix it and place acustom rom just tio make it run smooth not tio mention some vibrants freeze when overclocked

Get g2 it can be overclocked to 1.4ghz

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
you mean it can overclock to 1.9/1.8 ghz on g2

Well you get my drift on g1 vs mytouch specs. All those specs i know already, but thanks for refreshing my memory firefly. @ mexican guy I dislike samsung products i rather buy Moto if is not Htc.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
i do agree, if your not into development and just want a phone that works out of the box then there are better choices than the vibrant.

(and that's most of the smart phone using population so I understand where your coming from.)

but between the vibrant MT4G and the G2, the vibrant is a much better development phone, its easy to work with and is not hardware locked like the others and it has great hardware and a better graphics processor and screen than the others. (although it should be noted that the MT4g has more ram and the G2 has a stronger processor and a physical keyboard.)

so hardware wise they all have strong points, it just depends on your tastes:

if your into: videos, gaming, development, overall looks, then the vibrant is for you.

If your into: a processor that can handle more math, a physical keyboard, more official updates, and strong benchmarks then the G2 is for you.

If your into: video conferencing, more official updates, more ram, strong benchmarks, and physical flash for the camera, the MT4G is for you.

all three phones do all of those things well but each has its specialty :)

The vibrant has the potential to be the best phone but it takes lots of time and tweaking where the other phones are great right out of the box.

forgive my longer posts, I don't mean to just contradict any of you, I just like to post what I've found through research and personal experience, but its really a matter of personal opinion usually.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr123:
"hardware acceleration" is a buzzword.

If you are referring to interface GPU acceleration, dream has plenty of unused GPU power that could be used for this. No issues there.

It won't be. Guaranteed.

You are pulling nonsense out of your ass. Try harder.

First off, the hardware is called "dream", second, the 2.2 build DID come for that hardware. It just didn't come in time before DREAM was discontinued, so it was built exclusively for MAGIC32B, which is virtually IDENTICAL. I say again, you are pulling nonsense out of your ass. TRY HARDER.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr123:
No, they have EXACTLY THE SAME amount of memory, as your chart shows... 192 MB. NO DIFFERENCE. They differ only in FLASH STORAGE, which is irrelevant.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
last time I checked flash storage was still memory lol

but I apologize for not being specific.

for most its the difference between having to use apps2sd or not.

(although thats usualy a non issue, its not irrelivent)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
the dreams GPU is capable of 4 million triangles per second (how much more are you likely to pull from that? even doubled, thats not going to be much...)

A current generation phone such as the galaxy s series is capable of 90 million triangles per second.

thats a pretty large gap...

even the older generation snapdragon processor does 22 million triangles per second.

still a pretty big gap...

if the original droid got the update it would be closer but it still has almost twice the GPU of the dream at 7 million triangles per second.

the only way that we're likely to see a port of 2.3 is if its made for the mytouch 32B like 2.2 was. unfortunatly the 32B is has been discontinued for a while now...

hopefully they'll still release updates for it because of the name...

although I do hope maybe they'll release it for the 32A's

but then you have to start worrying about ram, it would be a stretch to say that swap would take care of that.

you say gpu acceleration wont be hard coded, why would you turn it off? what would be the point of supporting a discontinued device that cant handle it?

the people at google had 2.2 on their dev phones not nessicarily intending it for the dream.

dev phone 1 and 2 were so similar it really did not matter which one they used (same as a g1 vs mytouch 32b)

my guess (and this is pure speculation) is that the 2.2 "dreams" running around google were actually running the dev phone 2 (mytouch/magic/saphire/bob whatever you wanna call it) spl and software.

the current dev phone is basically the nexus one and by the time they release 2.3 theres a good possibility of a fourth dev phone.

but everything is still speculation and nothing you or I say will change that, I'm just saying its unlikely that we'll see a port not impossible.

[Droid 2 General] freakboy13:
OK so I just got my D2 last week, and I have to admit its kind of a grows on ya thing. I also have an hd2 as my personal phone so im spoiled with the giant screen. D2 is much more responsive then my hd2 and dont get me started windows lame OS.

BUT....

Why is there no built in "home" key? when Im browsing there doesn't seem to be any way to get back to the desktop of my phone with out hitting the return button and exiting all applications.

Very annoying. And the whole bajillion apps running that can't be shut off. I bought an app that "freezes" them, so far so good. Why do I have to buy an app to open the cmd prompt?

and the searchsoft key. wtf nothing happens.

IS there any way I can hack and re-assign my keys to different functions?

I would like the search key (magnifying glass) to bring up google search any time i hit it, and my home key to always go back to the homescreen.

is this just me being a noob and cant git' r' done or is this a D2/android thing? THis is only my first week with the android operating system, I realy love it, really makes WM look like a pos. yeah and windows 7? it just ads more ghey to the old wm. stil sucks.

Any help would be nice thanks! :)
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
Are you using the stock ROM and launcher? or do you use launcher pro or ADW?

the home key should already be assigned to go back to the desktop as far as I know.
[Droid 2 General] freakboy13:
Hi yes I still have stock rom. Also my lockscreen doesn't work and when I push the keylock\power button it doesn't fully lock the screen as if I push the volume button the screen turns on. So im not sure what's up. Homekey as I said doesn't work anymore as well.isn't there someway to hack the phone to re assign keypad softkey function? Also none of these keys work on th KB as well. I still havnt upgraded to 2.3 yet. Seems like a hassle to unroot delete every thing and start over. Yes I have clockwork also TI backup pro

Any suggestions would be great
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
I don't use the stock launcher anymore. ADW and from what I hear LauncherPro both have preferences that change the home key assignment. I would upgrade to 2.3.20 though it's not a big of a hassle as you would think. I've sbf'd my phone twice and factory reseted everytime I upgrade a ROM. It doesn't take that long as long as you know what you are doing and you have backed up what you need. Google will remember your contacts and apps and settings if you tell it to. The only thing I have to setup are my non gmail email and a few apps that I have login info for. You don't have to unroot. You can just flash the new sbf and then re-root and you'll be updated (always flash with a full or near full battery) and I wouldn't be surprised if it fixed the problem. I've never heard of the soft key's not working on the stock ROM. They worked when I used it before we even had root.

The only way I can get my phone to wake with the volume button is to use "no lock" to turn of the lock screen. But if the lock screen is in place the only way to wake the phone is to press power and then use the sliders.
[Wildfire General] Symondo:
My Dad has finally joined the 21st centuary and ive coaxed him into the HTC Wildfire....

However hes really keen on my HD2's Swype keyboard.

Ive downloaded and read though various threads but i cannot see how im supposed to install this apk file or where im supposed to put it?
[Wildfire General] ephbee:
mount the phone as disc drive and put on sd card, unmount then use a file explorer/manager to find it on sd card, open it and choose install.

you will also have to activate in keyboards settings.

then when in new message , long press on text input box will bring up text input choose swype.

is your swype version QVGA? because thats what you need for wildfire
[Wildfire General] Symondo:
Ok perfect. I had assumed this would be the idea but couldnt find a file explorer on the phone. I'll get 1 downloaded and give this a shot.

Yeah ive got the right version after a lot of reading last night.

Is there a way that I can retrieve/extract my contact list from a nandroid backup without restoring the phone to said backup? If so, please explain... thanks guys
[Droid Incredible General] shoman24v:
Do you store your contacts with your gmail account?
[Droid Incredible General] cjschriver3:
They're not in any of the attached accounts.

Dunno what i was thinking but when i created new contacts i added them to "phone" instead of "gmail"

I flashed a new rom and kept all my apps and junk but only maintained my gmail and facebook contacts, as woulda been expected if i was thinking.

Is there a virtual drive or something similar that i can use to mount the .img files from the nandroid backup?

Thanks.

MagicISO won't mount it :(

EDIT: I decided to just go ahead and restore to the old backup and then export the contacts, but, the old nandroid backup is saying "MD5 mismatch" so, any good ideas?
