[Droid 2 Global General] kwheel596:
I agree, but not for any of the reasons most people have posted.

You shouldn't even be flashing something to the phone EVER if you have no idea what it is or if it will work on your phone. If you don't know, ask. But you should never do that. Example: If a random hobo walked up to you and said here take this random pill, you would never even dream of doing it.

The reason I think that it should be done is because is basically a completely different phone.

[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
did you ever do this? someone really needs to. i dont want to do it again if someone already has tho, being a nuisance isnt really my thing.
[Droid 2 Global General] theimpaler747:
To repeat ;)
[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
we know lol, i was asking if leobg ever did, since he said he was going to.
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
Yes, I actually did about 2 hours after I posted I am going to. So far I haven't heard back from him. He said in his initial reply that he is going to monitor the thread and decide based on user feedback. I don't want to spam him, hopefully it will turn out good and we will get our own section for the Droid 2 Global here at XDA.

I actually just received my phone today and I am very excited so far - such a leap from the Milestone (Droid 1) I used until now!
[Droid 2 Global General] Steffylicious:
It's different enough from the standard Droid 2 to warrant it's own section, imo. So I vote for a new section.
[Droid 2 Global General] lyoko37:
*Adds in vote*

Slightly improved keyboard, spell check with physical keyboard and faster processor (and crappier battery life)

Definitely deserves its own section, or at least a subforum under the Droid2 section.
[Droid 2 Global General] StevePritchard:
I got a response from him a week ago saying he'd look into it, and look to add the forum this week. At the time I thought the Milestone 2 = Droid 2 Global, but I think I might have been wrong, so not only would I like a Droid 2 Global forum (or sub-forum), I'd like a Milestone 2 for all of us non-Verizon Europeans to hang out in. :D

Cheers,

Steve.
[Droid 2 Global General] brinox:
i vote for at least a separate development section as well. I think its own section with the big four subthreads is warranted, but at the very least, a D2G development section will allow us to not lose our minds sifting through the madness that will become the D2 development section if a new subforum isnt created...
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
I believe the Droid 2 has no future now that Verizon offers the Droid 2 Global with 1.2 GHZ. Everybody will buy the latter. Then why should me have a droid 2 division when the majority will own a droid 2 global?
[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
they still offer the regular droid 2 not to mention its 50 or 100 dollars cheaper (cant remember) on an upgrade...sooo i'd say people will still be getting the regular d2.

the point is tho...the d2g needs, at the least, its own development subforum, otherwise we're probably gonna end up with a lot of bricks from people flashing d2 roms to a d2g without (for now) an sbf to fix things.
[Droid 2 Global General] newk8600:
...or already have a D2 and have only had it for a few months and have already had a lot of success hacking and using it. But I agree there should at least be a separate section because people don't read very well sometimes and someone will flash the wrong ROM because of noobitis ( the inflamation of the noob categorized by flashing without reading/understanding the entire process and the subsequent consequences)
[Droid 2 Global General] theimpaler747:
Very nice medial analysis ;) :D
[Droid 2 Global General] tecwizrd:
You have my vote for the seperate D2G fourm. Mine should be here by Friday. Merry Christmas all.

+1 Vote for D2G
[Droid 2 Global General] cruznthru:
Droid 2 Global Forum

My vote is in. I have found only one other site that has a Droid 2 Global specfic information. I as others would easily have loaded the wrong files to the Droid 2 Global, if not for carefully reading for a couple of days.

Not only will it be helpfull to the new Droid 2 Global owners, it would be a wise business decision as well.
[Droid 2 Global General] NiceGuysFinishLast:
I'm new here, will have my D2G this week, and have been doing as much research as I can; I think we need our own section, so I can be positive I'm doing the right thing without having to clog up the boards with noob questions.
[Droid 2 Global General] Xyzkid13:
Hell yeah! I feel all weird having to ask around the Droid 2 forums "does this work with the Global". Plus, plenty of noobs out there will be screwing themselves over thinking that the droid 2 and global are the same. Come on XDA, add it already!
[Droid 2 Global General] xjcracker:
A seperate section would be nice. :)
[Droid 2 Global General] rusty815:
we need a section for the d2g, i just ordered mine through amazon and cant wait to get it
[Droid 2 Global General] daltond2g:
Exchanged a fascinate for a d2g a couple weeks ago. Would be really cool to see d2g's own section. Hopefully we can get roms from d2 transfered over easily.
[Droid 2 Global General] botnryan:
Here we go guys :D i pm'd svetius and this was his reply!
[Droid 2 Global General] Master Turkey:
I would agree. Own section.

um...there already is one and your post was moved there.
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
Like the title says has anyone else gotten it? I don't think a beta release would get an OTA could this be a release build?
[Epic 4G General] spdwiz18:

[General Questions and Answers] Lordrdx666:
I want to purchase a phone but I am not sure which one to take-

here are my questions and help me clear these issues..ty..

I want to purchase a new android based touchscreen phone and I have narrowed down to htc desire, acer liquid ferrari and samsung galaxy S

I know all of these phones cater to a different niche altogether but I have a few basic questions regarding them... Are all of these having 3.5mm jacks ?

Can their ROMs be updated to Froyo especially for liquid e ferrari ?

Also which phone has the best sunlight legibility ?

Here are few specific questions -

Question 1 - htc desire is a gr8 all round fone.. So after doing an official FOTA from htc india website..

Can I root the phone and customize it with apps and other things then wat is d probability of messing things up ? And is it gonna run stable with a 16gb class 4 or above micro sdhc card ?? (sandisk or kingston)

Question 2 - acer liquid e ferrari is highly stylish phone and i love it to bits for the great paint job and everything.. But it has lots of useless apps and preloaded junk..

Can it be rooted and then flashed to a custom froyo based ROM ??? Is it possible coz no F0TA updates r there for froyo on this model by acer..

Question 3 - in casee of samsung galaxy s i've heard that its lag is reduced by rooting the phone and applying a lag fix.. Will this work with a custom froyo firmware ?

Thanks for patiently reading this and answering to these queries..

PS - sorry for the weird formatting was typed with nokia n97 in opera mini.... ;)
[General Questions and Answers] jagpoag:
You could answer all of your own questions with a few minutes (maybe an hour or so) of using google and youtube. I just did a quick search around not even really trying and found out more information on some of this stuff than you even asked for.
[General Questions and Answers] Lordrdx666:
Hmmm i agree but still i need some more help... :(

i agree that lot of stuff can be found if i properly research but i've got my university mid term exams going on so you can imagine im busy studying to improve my grades...

Also opening heavy webpages with a 2G network on an average speed of 120 kbps on this lousy n97 is tough...

I would greatly appreciate if you could 'rally a few specialists on the forum to my help'

It would save me a lot of time and tension...

Or you could answer a few of the questions according to all the research that you did, I would be very very indebted to you..

Thanks...
[Desire HD Accessories] gingerprince:
Hi

My DHD arrived about an hour ago, and I now need to get some protection for it and a car holder.

I currently have a Brodit passive holder for my Touch Pro 2, so will probably replace that with the passive Brodit holder for the DHD.

I'm probably looking at something like this for protection: -

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-SOFT-SI..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item255e818561

But does anyone know whether the DHD in that sort of case will still fit in the Brodit holder?

If not, what's the best compromise to have a protected phone and a car holder - am I looking more at a pouch to carry the phone in?

Thanks
[Desire HD Accessories] mwright:
I may be wrong but I thought the Brodit stuff was designed for a "naked" phone since the holders fit the devices very snugly.

If you are talking about putting the Windows Phone 7 OS on another, non-Microsoft certified phone, then I am afraid it might not be possible yet, as the HD2 is even having problems (which might be solved at a later date, and for now, only the OS works without online features).

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaiPiePia:
Just like the title stated. I am using Obsidian V3 and the Flash 10.1 is great. However, it only works well with certain websites and for sites with higher quality streams like Vimeo, the video runs at a lower frame rate thus shutters. Is there anyways to improve the rendering speed?

I remember at one point Team Whiskey experimented with overclocking the GPU, (Flash hardware support is from the GPU), would this benefit flash rendering? Or is CPU still the more important factor?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshchn:
I have seen lagging flash not only in vibrant but in other newer devices. I hope adobe will optimize it for android. I almost stopped using flash. So much for getting excited for froyo.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaiPiePia:
It's not that bad, I have watch several TV shows on the phone and for the most part it is very smooth. It is when you hit a higher than normal quality site (Vimeo was my example), you see the phone slows down.

To be honest optimization isn't coming any time soon. If there's a way for Adobe to fight back against Apple's claim that Flash is a power hog, they probably would already took the easy way out.

Also, there are other benefits in Froyo than Flash, browser speed increase is > than 50%. That alone should be worth getting excited about.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
Flag isn't out dated yet, getting there but not yet. There is still stuff flash can do html5 can't, and flash behaves the same in all environments, html5 still has browser issues...and always will as long as IE exists. Or at least until IE gets smart and goes webkit. Flash is still as close to cross platform native code as it gets for a web developer.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaiPiePia:
Not only that but interactive content with html5 is very very limited at the moment, because many browser does not support it. Flash is here to stay for awhile, there's no doubt about that.

Plus, the fact that browser vendors Mozilla, IE, Chrome, and Safari almost each have its different take on which codec should be used to standardize the <video> tag for html5. It will take a while just for this to play out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lqaddict:
I agree with both of you. I was a bit optimistic on HTML5 comment I've made.

With time as the standard, well becomes the standard, we should see HTML5 push for more content. The idea is good.

And who the heck is using Internet Exploiter nowadays :D?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaiPiePia:
I haven't use it personally, but apparently IE9 (Beta) is very nicely designed. It is also the first browser to have hardware support from the GPU.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schiznik:
HTC Sync relies on there being HTC software in the ROM, which there isnt in AOSP ROMs such as Oxygen... You see where this is going?

So i decided to go on a Flashing spree today for no reason, i just felt like it..

I started out by flashing 2.2 on my 2.1 phone, that all worked out quite well, but for some reason i could not root it. ( I used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845558) It all worked out nicelly but since i could not root it, i just game up on it.

After searching i found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734475 to revert my phone back to its original firmware. I have a Galaxy s Vibrant, so i thought it was the correct thing. But since i installed it i have alot of problems.

First of all, when i plug it into my USB the phone auto turns off. And it will not charge when the usb is in.

I have rom manager installed, but when i try to run a rom, i keep getting the error (status = bad ).

Also the phone wont recognise my SimCard so i cant stay with this firmweare anyways.

I agree with you on this man. How confusing could they make it? I guess they did it to sort of distinguish our model of i9000M from the International version but couldnt they at least give a different name from the U.S. model?

They even look identical except for the fact that the U.S. Vibrant has 4 soft keys at the bottom where we have the 2 soft and 1 hard key...
