[Fascinate General] Flip260z:
search for showcase in fascinate dev thread. I have a post there that has the clockwork mod instructions and kernel.
[Legend General] lessirey:
This is interesting! You must be knowing by now that Vodafone moved ahead with the Legend froyo update when htc promised last week that they will be releasing the update for unbranded legends first and then the carriers would go ahead with it.

Well, guess what ? htc directly manages and hosts update for Vodafone !

now what does that make of us unbranded people ?

(He believes the most number of Legend sales globally are through Vodafone)

That doesnt make any sense! how can vodafone be responsible for moving quick when htc themselves manage and host updates for them ???

I've been very patient all through in waiting for the update while many people been going really mad..

BUT THISS REALLLY PISSSED ME OFFFFF !!!!! :mad:

proof (from htc facebook):

PS: I noticed the irony only after posting a response to their comment.

Whole stuff in short : HTC makes their ROM -> Vodafone asks HTC to customize the ROM for them -> HTC does all the work for Vodafone -> and they host the ROM on HTC's own server -> The update is released by HTC for vodafone (not BY vodafone)

There is no sending to vodafone for customization in the process
[Legend General] CrazyPeter:
Look at the date within the ROM, HTC Delivered the rom to Vodafone for customisation a whole month ago.

All the while they have been sat on the finished ROM scratching their asses.
[Legend General] tnakir:
Offcourse they had finished rom months ago. They released a device identical to Legend (not sure which model is it) but plastic casing few weeks ago with Froyo. That means Froyo for Legend's architecture was ready weeks before release date (they had tu manufacture the cellphones and distribute it).
[Legend General] randy_khoo:
I think you have to read between the lines - "believes the most number of legend sales are through Vodaphone".

There has to be a reason why vodaphone put the updates on hold for one month.

The only thing that came to mind is - HTC Desire HD and Z.

Think about it - if consumers had in their hands a Froyo 2.2 device in the market that's made of unibody aluminum, what is the impetus for them to pick up a desire?

Close to zero. 5MP camera, can friendstream, can do internet. What else can a desire HD or Z offer the typical consumer that the legend cannot?

Most consumers (and i'm not talking fanboys or android lovers or developers here) have little reason to pick the desire - unless if it has an impact on their image.

So the key? offer ordinary consumers the desire HD and Z - push this to the market, and silently update the legend after sales of the new desires have been done.

Mind you - the original desire wasn't a metal phone.

It's just marketing and effort to make the most money out of consumers.

Does HTC care enough to create a good user experience outside of the htc sense interface? That is the question.
[Legend General] krasenk:
I totally agree with the last two opinions! Nothing can excuse HTC for releasing Froyo for Legend 3-4 months after Desire was updated to 2.2. I could understand such a delay if they have implemented the new Sense UI and the HTCSense.com functionalities, but... they released just Froyo with a bit polished Sense. I also think that they could release Froyo 1-2 months ago... It's all about the sales of the new models. It's really a shame.
[Legend General] lessirey:
I there is a misunderstanding ! from what i understand.. there is no 'sending of ROM to vodafone FOR customization' involved in this !

HTC makes the rom, vodafone tells HTC to customize their ROM, and HTC does the job and host the ROM for vodafone on HTC's own servers !

Now what does that make ? htc made the ROM for vodafone and released it themselves before they released their unbranded ROM against their promise ! thats the whole point.

So htc claiming vodafone just released it too quick is a total lie or intentionally misleading, coz its htc who released it for them, not vodafone themselves.
[Legend General] randy_khoo:
Yes, but they have to have a schedule for it.

Vodaphone got it first because (it could be a written agreement not shown to you)

they have the biggest distribution globally.

This means they have more legends than all the unbranded legends combined.

So they get it first.

Yes, HTC 'promised' - but they couldn't deliver.

It's usually the money that does the talking.
[Legend General] fatthumb:
I agree with randy_khoo, but still as long HTC release official froyo updates (no matter asia/europe/us, branded/unbranded), we can always customize and re-cook the rom out of it :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] aeidian:
Though T-mobile boasts a significant 4g area, there are still many areas that do not even support 3g. Such as mine in the North Florida, Pensacola area. I knew before I signed up that the coverage said it was Mobile web, clearly the lower of the 3 options in my area but I wasn't prepared for that suckfest this is. Running speed tests I average about 0.05mbps down speeds and 0.11 up speeds via speedtest.net's app. The old 56K modems were 0.05mbps, so effectively I have a 56K connection speed. Why is this so bad when there are areas that are sporting upwards of 10mbps? And as far as the throttling over 5gbs, I don't seem to use more than 1gb, and that's pressing it, most of the time I use my home wireless but I couldn't imagine this speed being throttled if I cross that cap, what the hell would they dock me down to? A 14.4 connection?
[G2 and Desire Z General] joebobjoe:
Many people will claim T-Mobile's EDGE network sucks. Perhaps this is true, but I think it has more to do with the G2's radio.
[G2 and Desire Z General] elreason4:
I get similar edge speeds on my G2 as my old G1 or Dash (when i force the G2 to 2g only speeds) around 200-300kb/s......if you CONSISTANTLY get .05Mb/s or less, you can call t-mobile technical and report abnormal speeds at your address....have them create a work order.....I live in a 4G 'hole' that should be covered, and just had t-mobile create a work order (i have a work order number).....if my speeds don't improve in the next week, I will follow up.....I am only getting 1 Mb/sec when I should get many times that (and I do, except here at my home.....and the coverage map claims 4G speeds at this address)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
Those speeds sound about right for Edge. That's what I get whenever I get stuck with that network.
[G2 and Desire Z General] aeidian:
I would say they are cosistently .05mbps, I'm a bit concerned about talking to anyone at tmobile about anything after my visit to get screen protectors and absently asked if they had been getting a lot of people returning g2s because of the hinges. The sales rep said "no not that I know of but you're supposed to be getting an ota to fix messaging problems" and clearly this guy was a robot with no basic conversation skills because I said "I don't see what a software fix has anything to do with a hardware issue" and his response was "of course but the ota also allows you to make wifi calls on any open wireless network". At this point I just said thanks and left. This was in person, not over the phone and I bet if I gave the guy that toy that teaches kids how to put a square block in a square hole he would fail miserably.
[G2 and Desire Z General] waffleman911:
I feel you, I live about 2 hours away (PCB) and we're just now getting 3g. T-Mobile needs to worry about getting 3g everywhere before worrying about 4g :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] aeidian:
You have 3g now? I've been reading over posts from the past 2 years that say my area is "coming soon", like the last 2 years its been "coming soon". I've also read that the naval and air force base frequencies in this area make anything above Edge impossible.
[G2 and Desire Z General] waffleman911:
Yeah in certain areas they have 3g, but mostly it is just edge.
[G2 and Desire Z General] aeidian:
What's your up and down with the speedtest.net app on 3g and edge?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ekoandrew:
That's really true air force have priority channel among all consumer and industrial tech for frequency usage. Nothing can go against them. That is hard facts when u work for military communication unit.
[G2 and Desire Z General] waffleman911:
I cant test 3g right now because I dont get it at my house but I'll try and do it tomorrow. and I'll post edge and 3g hopefully tomorrow
[G2 and Desire Z General] aeidian:
I was in the mall today and stopped in to ask about the 3g/4g thing in this area and she straight up told me its military issues. She said 2014 before their contract is up, and there's nothing to say they won't just renew it. Looks like I'll just ebay this phone and go sign a contract with Verizon. G2 is my first smartphone, and I love it. I didn't know anything about all this 3g/4g stuff before hand, but its gotten to the point that it annoys me to have such ****ty data speeds, and now that I know it won't be changed until 3 years from now if even then, or I move I'm pretty done with it. 20 bucks more a month I could have an equally good phone and a decent network speed.

The chick told me they do have the edge network here, like that was some great accomplishment, and its "almost 3g". I don't know what 3g speeds are but I'm betting they're not less than 1mbps. In the heart of pensacola I hit 0.17mbps data speed, so that's like saying windows 3.11 is "almost" windows xp. Damn disappointing for such a kickass phone. If I lived in a 4g area I would be euphoric.

can some one direct me to step by step guide for putting

android on a Telstra HD2 for ATT

I know the HardSpl needs to be done,

and the correct radio is very important

after that what Android ROMS are good.

please
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] neoissuperman:
you don't need hspl. you just pick a rom, follow the read me text included in the download (EXACTLY) and after first load..... reboot (pull battery out) and you are done. i use Mdeejay_eVo_Sense_v._2.3Revolution with added MMS patch.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Agoattamer:
Uhhh.....you will need HSPL to update the radio to a 2.xx.50 builder. It will need to be at least 2.08.50 or greater.
[Vibrant General] rbirg:
I've tried most of the Froyo ROMs out there (except Eugene's, but I assume it isn't much different... I could be wrong). Anyways, everyone says it's stupid fast, but I just don't see it. Even with a lag fix.

Also whenever I scroll, most notable in LauncherPro or maybe scrolling through the picture stream at the bottom of the facebook app, it seems to studder. Which bugs me to no end for some reason.

I want to make the jump to Froyo, I really do. I tried using Froyo roms as my daily driver but I couldn't do it, I always come back to JI6 for some reason.

As a side note, I'm not really sure why, but I keep going back to stock JI6 instead of Fusion for some reason, ODIN seems easier to me hahaha.

Anyhow is anyone else seeing any similar problems? Also is this due to the kernel?
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Dude, there is an issue on your end. My froyo FLIES.
[Vibrant General] richan90:
I've always had the lag on facebook because my 3G connection couldn't keep up. I've never had LauncherPro lag... its insanely fast IMO. Try ODIN repartition to JFD and then flash a ROM on top of it. I'm using Team Whiskey's Onyx R4 btw.
[Vibrant General] rbirg:
Also it's not due to internet. It is when you scroll the pictures on the selection screen (profile, friends, etc)

It's not lag, it's subtle studders. It'll start scrolling smoothly, then all the sudden it will jump back up for a second and keep scrolling down.

Fail.
[Vibrant General] ori2:
I also tried some of existing JK2-based roms. I suspect even the eugene's odin rom be not a pure JK2 rom. I'd appreciate the thankful efforts by devs, though. Anyways, I also always kept coming back to JI6 for some issues. That some don't suffer from issues doesn't mean that others don't either. In my case, there were intermittent force closes randomly, FYI.
[Vibrant General] ransz28:
I'm running Axura and love it.

Perfection by Axura
[Vibrant General] rbirg:
I tried Axura earlier today and had the same issues. Loved the rom though. The animations are so awesome.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
This happens on JI6 when using the Friends widget. It may simply be the way the data is loaded into the control, and drawing the pictures can perhaps be somewhat of a reason. I haven't really troubleshooted it much, so I can't say for sure.

I just stopped using the widget. When I had an HTC phone the sense widget did not have this issue, and it was the same base OS (Android 2.1). I'm having a hard time blaming this on the OS itself.

Lag... Stutters... I say semantics.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] t1mman:
actually not likely. Many custommers (like me) don't like the "thinkness" added with a flip keyboard.

Anyway, the Galaxy S Pro will most likely have a flip KB, this will cover this area of the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] cluu1:
you could just get a bluetooth keyboard for around 20 dollars, and then i guess tape it on or something....

i have a mini bluetooth keyboard.

no problems having it work. but i just don't need a physical keyboard right now.

would be a lot cheaper too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] rothariger:

Anyone know how to take the at&t widgets off the widget list? Im on a Captivate rooted, (oclf) and have root explorer (if that matters).
[Captivate General] newter55:
You can use root explorer to delete the files associated with them or titanium backup will also remove system apks. Just be sure you know what the names are, some can be quite cryptic.

The files are in system/app directory but some apps also have other files associated with them.

Titanium backup has a feature where you can freeze them which essentially disables them and you can defrost thus reenabling should you find you made an error or change your mind.

sent from my captivate disguised as an i9000 running cyanogen ;)
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
I've tried TB, but for some reason, it slowed my phone down. I can try it again. When they are froze, will that eliminate them from the widget list?
[Captivate General] fatttire:
Yes
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
Cool thanx man. And does anyone else have an issue freezing apps on captivate and TB keeps saying its freezing the app. I let my phone sit for like 10 mins trying to freeze one app!
[Captivate General] baseballfanz:
No problems with freezing at all. Its a quick process and defrosting is just as quick
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
So as soon as you hit "freeze" it does its thing, then you can choose the next app? Maybe I should haver restarted my phone or something after untangling TB.
[Captivate General] AverageJane:
Hey there,

If you happen to be running Launcher Pro, you can hit Menu - Preferences - General Settings - Hidden Apps. Here you can check what you don't want to see in your apps list.

As far as Titanium Backup goes, I've never tried the Freeze option - I've just deleted what I didn't want (as long as I knew what it was!:))

Hope this helps!

[Captivate General] Caliesv:
Yeah that helped :) I been hiding that apps with LP, but I figured everything out using TB. I just went ahead and bought it. Thanx everyone for your input!
