[Desire HD General] andrej.marinic:
Hi there,

I am thinking about switching from my SGS to Desire HD. The reasons for this are at this moment irrelevant, but I would like to know if there is anyone out there who made the switch and what she or he thinks about it.

In what ways is Desire HD better, in what ways is it worse? Stuff like that. A comparison from a user's point of view.

Thanks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orb3000:
Welcome to forums

A1) No need to install again as you already have the necessary files on your SD card

A2)You can stay on Android as long as you want but if you turn off the phone or reboot it will go to WM, unless you have an automatic app to start Android (don´t remember where I´ve seen it)

From what I understand Android is running in/over WM, it´s not an OS on itself

Can someone please let me know if there is any way that I can play MKV video files directly on my Vibrant? I am able to play the file on my laptop, but when I play it on the phone, the audio is distorted.

All I can see from searching over the internet is that I need to convert the files to different format and then play it on my phone.

Is there an app which can convert / play MKV files directly on my phone?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhaoyuji12:
I got it from AMAZON last week. First couple days it was great. I won't say it was better than my gf's iphone 4 but certainly it was close, considering I got it free.

Then yesterday the cell phone signaled a system update, downloaded, started to update, indicating "update fail, the system will reboot automatically". It never did....

I tried everything I can find, could not even get to the download mode. Actually can't get anything from the screen. I found in ATT only communities that apparently it is a common problem...

Luckily amazon is going to send me a new one... although I lost all my stuff...

Anyway, just give your guys a notice that don't do "system update" on your phone. It will brick it.. Is there anyway to update it though? I am not sure...

You'll want the latest (1.1) version since the original release had serious playback issues on Froyo ROMs.
[General Topics] OGCF:
Short story: I'm up for an upgrade on AT&T and I can't decide between the Captivate and the Focus. I like Android and its massive amount of customization but WP7 looks amazing and I have a gut feeling it will be a pretty big success going forward.

Long story: So I signed up with AT&T on a family plan back in September of this year and, since I had just moved back to the US, I decided to save my money and use my own phone from abroad. I made this choice mostly because smartphones on AT&T were still kind of expensive and the only two options at the time were the Captivate and the HTC Aria. And they pretty much offered zero desirable free phones (before smartphones you could get some great phones for free).

About a month later, my phone started freaking out on me and still continues to do so. The phone restarts itself randomly throughout the day; this is an issue because it's a Sony Ericsson phone so it goes to the Phone Mode/Flight Mode screen before actually starting so I've missed quite a few calls. Over time the phone has also started to have issues picking up any signal at all, so I've been forced to restart the phone every time (and it temporarily fixes the problem).

This whole thing became a big headache and I got worried I would have to shell out $300+ for a decent off-contract or unlocked phone. Luckily, since I didn't get a phone on my line, AT&T is saying that I am eligible for an upgrade and I've been looking online and I've found some great deals.

Two deals in particular: the gorgeous Samsung Captivate for free and the drool-worthy Samsung Focus for $50 (both on Amazon). Both of these prices apply for an upgrade, so now I'm trying to decide which one I want. I love Android and its insane customizations (and the TouchWiz UI is not that bad tbh) and its awesome features (Navigation being a huge plus). But I am very tempted to get a WP7 device; gaming looks to be MUCH better and the whole UI is quite handsome in addition to being just blazing fast. And I know I'll be kicking myself if WP7 grows into a killer OS while I'm still stuck on 2.2 (and at that point 3.0 will probably be out and Sammy will have a new flagship Android).

Now I ask you XDA-ers: which one should I get?
[General Topics] OGCF:
I hate doing this but...bump.
[General Topics] EVOIXGSR:
I'm in the same boat. What decision did you end up making, and do you have any regrets?

For me the trade offs between the two are the Focus with the LED Flash, 8gb mem, and WP7. And tehn the Captivate with no LED Flash, 16gb mem, and Android

BUMP

[General Questions and Answers] tahosa:
I recently tried (foolishly) to do an OTA update from Eclair to Froyo on my rooted Desire and suddenly my device is stuck in a reboot cycle. I do have access to the stock recovery mode and fastboot seems to be working properly. I rooted using unrevoked3 and I don't know if it give me access to any custom recovery tools. I also do not have a goldcard, and as I understand it, I can't make one since I can't get adb up and running.

I have tried pretty much everything I can find that applies to my device, which isn't much since I seem to have some odd bootloader/radio specs which make all the ROMs and RUUs I can find not work. When I boot into fastboot or hboot, my device lists these specs:

BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

MICROP-051d

TOUCH PANEL-WYNW0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

Aug 10 2010,17:52:18

I can get to the recovery tool and try running update.zip, but I have only found one which gets past signature verification and then errors with a Status 2. I have also tried running the WWE RUUs from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667 which will run once I give the device the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" command, but they all fail with a code 130 which means the device doesn't match. Also, the RUUs are all for a 1.1x or 1.2x revision and the loader says I have the 2.25.661.2 when it goes though the "are you sure" messages.

Is there anything else I can do to get this back up and running?

edit: An additional note, I have the SLCD screen which I know causes a bunch of issues since it uses a different driver than the AMOLED one and many of the ROMS, RUUs, etc. don't support it.

[General Questions and Answers] tahosa:
No change

Nope, the only image I could find linked from there fails with the same error as the RUU. I think it is mainly to do with the fact that my HBOOT version is higher than what everyone else seems to have.

When the image gets loaded during the HBOOT, it verifies just fine, but when it tries to run the device check, it errors with "Model ID incorrect!"
[General Questions and Answers] tahosa:
Fixed: Process

EDIT: I don't know how I overlooked this for so long, but since I did my root using unrevok3d I got clockworkmod recovery and a backup of my old image, which is probably why this method worked for me. These instructions may still hold if you are stock, but no guarantees.

I was able to fix my Desire using the following method:

You first need to identify which version of the software you device has using the HTC reflash tools. To do this, boot your device into FASTBOOT and connect it to USB. Start the fastboot tool and reboot it into the OEM RUU mode using "./fastboot oem rebootRUU". This brings you to the OEM reflash mode and you can run any of the available RUU tools from this page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667. When you run them, they give you the version of the software on the device as well as what they are trying to overwrite with. Write down your software version if the first two groups don't match since you will most likely need a different version. From here, you can try running the update but it may fail. If it doesn't you should be all set.

If you can, find another one of the RUUs on the xda-developer page which matches your software version. Most of those link back to the shipped-roms page, but if you don't see yours on that list, look at http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/ for the full list of Desire ROMs and RUUs. Mine happened to be the TELUS_WWE_2.25.661, which is a zip file. If the matching file is an exe, you have the HTC install tool, and can use the instructions above to flash it. If not, rename the .zip to update.zip and put it on your SD card and boot into HBOOT.

From HBOOT, choose recovery, and when you get to the black screen with the red error message press VOL-UP and POWER to get to the options and choose "Apply update.zip from SD Card." If everything matches, it will apply the update, and you should be able to boot up into a stock (or somewhat stock, mine was rooted) ROM for the Desire.

Let me know if this is confusing and I will rewrite it to be easier to follow.
[HD7 General] Jonno2343:
Hey all,

I see the HD7 is now only $50 on the Amazon site.

How does this price work? If someone already has a T-Mobile contract can they buy this phone for $50 without having to spend any more money? Or does it count as an upgrade and then they have to wait another 2 years before they can buy another phone at that rate?

Do you have to renew your contract to be eligible for that price?

I know some people in the US who have a T-Mobile contract and, if possible, $50 is quite a lot less than $520 but I'm sure that this is not how it works.

Could anyone fill me in on the details?

Thanks!
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
There are normally at least 2 different prices for phones here on US carriers. The full price, and the contract/upgrade price (which is usually the much lower price).

To take advantage of the lower price, you either need to:

- Be eligible for an upgrade and renew your contract (on either a 1 or 2 year contract, depending on the carrier, and the price you want to pay for the phone), and sometimes pay an upgrade fee

- Start a new contract/add-a-line on a new 1 or 2 year contract, and pay an activation fee.

When you are locked into a contract, you are subject to the terms of that carrier, so that may include a required data or text package in addition to your voice plan. These required packages cannot be removed for the duration of your contract (and depending on the carrier, for the life of your phone). That also includes a termination fee should you decide to cancel before your contract is up. These fees vary depending on the carrier.
[HD7 General] Jonno2343:
Ok, thanks very much.

We have a similar system in this country but phone prices aren't advertised as the price you have to pay to get them on contract, they're either a certain price with a certain contract or they advertise the Pre-paid price.

It was confusing seeing websites that said "Buy the HD7 now for only $50" but all cleared up now, thanks!
[HD7 General] Lenas:
If you actually go through the Amazon Wireless store and buy a phone, prior to payment you have to agree to the terms with which they save you so much money. If you don't use the phone for a minimum of 120+ days, they retroactively charge you for the full amount of the hardware.
[HD7 General] nexus14:
Also, if you plan on buying the phone and then cancelling the contract after a month, you can forget about it.

You will have to pay the carrier's ETF

The one-month of service, prorated accordingly

And Amazon's own termination fee.

All of this will be greater than simply buying the phone for full price.
[G Tablet General] xguntherc:
Guys. I'm running CM6.1 Beta and I also flashed Clockwork on this thing.

I'm planning on returning it today, or I'll sell it to someone here that wants it I guess. I did a Nandroid Backup with Clockwork when it was completely stock. I can just nandroid Restore to that, then return it right. Then at Sears they'll make sure it works, it will boot into TapNtap User interface and they'll give me my refund. Or do I need to flash the tapntap restore that's been posted

I don't have to remove CW right, but I probably should.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I would recommend removing CW for the next person who gets it - that person could be from here, but they might not have a clue what cwm is.

If you run the full vanilla update.zip it may or may not downlevel recovery (it's been spotty for me). Always worth a try.
[G Tablet General] Lemcott:
as an interested buyer (sent you a PM btw), i think it's only fair for you to tell me, and anyone else who may be interested, why exactly you're getting rid of it.

I am really looking into getting this device, but after my last "great" decision of going with the droid eris, I want to be absolutely sure before i throw money down on this thing.

so, laggy? flimsy? what's your beef with it?
[G Tablet General] steveliv:
I'm pretty sure you can use nvflash to get the tab back to stock, it will also remove clockwork recovery.

Check the link in robeets sig for more informatoin
[G Tablet General] xguntherc:
Thanks beet. I'll be doing that today.

And for why I'm selling it. I have a Nexus One, a MT4G, a HD2 running FroYo, the Archos 101 on the way, and the G-Tablet. (and a Augen Gentouch78 somewhere in my truck) lol.

Just need to sell it as I have to many toys. It's a great and powerful device, but still needs to improve on Software side with Adobe, Nvidia, and just in general. But running CM6.1 on it has been smooth and very reliable..

I am going to either sell it, or I will return it and maybe snag it at Outlet price if I see it. lol If anyone might wanna buy it. Preferably in lower 48 states let me know.

Hi guys, I need help and instructions about how porting the interface of native apps customed MIUI (like Settings, Messages, Phone...) on Enomother.

I can access to the ROM files and sign the modified ROM for working, but how is the correct way and where are located the custom UI files?

Bah i feel bad being a jerk.

They are two separate ROMS. They use different Framework. Hence all of the differences.

Just make a choice. MUIU or Enomther. This is why ppl are saying *wow*.
[Nexus One Android Development] matiu:

yes it really is...
[Nexus One Android Development] wsrider:
good luck. you should add in wanting sense ui
[Nexus One Android Development] matiu:
Ok, there is another way to get a theme that make this native apps like MIUI customization?

Maybe, an iphone theme on the market, I don't know, just for me it's more pratical...
[Nexus One Android Development] JHaste:
themes simply change the fonts and images being displayed and the framework determines where those fonts and pictures will be displayed among many other things so no a theme will not get your fix either...
[Nexus One Android Development] Macrophage001:
pull out the images from MIUI that you want,resize them to the correct sizes if you have to for the rom, put em in enomther framework, zip up framework, rename to framework-res.apk, and push to your phone.
[Nexus One Android Development] JHaste:
that still wont work... i think he legitimately wants the settings layout, dialer, messaging app, ect all put into enom's rom...

[Nexus One Android Development] enomther:
Yea ... I don't completely follow/understand this request ... :/ ...

Perhaps your interpretation is correct :/ .... (shrug) ...

@matiu ...

I guess I (and others) ... probably don't understand the appeal here ... if you want MIUI functionality (or look and feel) ... the general question would be why not use a MIUI based ROM ....

Help me understand what the appeal of using my ROM with a MIUI look/feel is exactly?

Outside of your reasoning ... what you're requesting is no easy task for sure ... would take lots of skill/talent/effort (especially given the lack of source code for MIUI [to my knowledge anyways]) ... :/ .... :)

Also perhaps labeling the thread with "[DEV]" is a little misleading ... this is more of a "[REQUEST]" that I can tell/understand ... I get a strange feeling the demand/interest/help for such a request would likely be "low" ... just a guess.

But again ... lots of effort involved with your request ... I personally am not even about to try :) sry!

But thanks for spelling my name correctly in the title! lol :D
