[GT540 Optimus General] doomed151:
One big downside of the LG phone is the resistive touchscreen. Wildfire has capacitive touchscreen and multitouch (it's very useful).

what is the cheapest dock for hero?

does anyone have a link for it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] peterc10:
I have always found that the cheapest docks can be found on Ebay. So go onto your country's ebay site I would guess. However if you want the best I would buy the HTC dock - mine has been very good

[Wildfire General] albert_htc:
Looking for a new phone for my daughter. Which is better the GTS540 or the HTC wildfire ?

Thanks
[Wildfire General] albert_htc:
Anyone have any comments ?
[Wildfire General] genericmann:
Wildfire owner here. Was considering of buying an LG GT540 for my gf. :)

can outline you some differences:

LG gt540:

+ has GPU - means can play richer graphics games

+ has higher resolution screen (no multi-touch though :( )

+ better price (in Romania up to 100 american $ difference)

+ overall performance seems better

- construction of phone seems poorer means cheap plastic used

- no multitouch, screen felt less responsive

- Android 1.6 by default upgradable to 2.1 (don't think they will make Froyo for it)

HTC wildfire:

+ Better screen responsivness, multitouch

+ device more popular, can find many customized ROMS, awaiting official FROYO

+ Better phone construction

+ Better camera with flash, light sensor

- low res screen

- no GPU, less gaming performance

- more expensive

When finnaly had to take the decision there was LG P500 released, that had the same price as GT540 (strange but true). Bought P500 and very pleased with it. P500 has Froyo by default, has multitouch you can find other info online ;) . As to main differences from Wildfire:

LG P500:

+ has no softkeys (like this ideea)

+ nice screen resolution with multitouch

+ better performance than Wildfire

+ has "close-to-ear-turn-off-screen" sensor :) (GT540 has no such sensor, Wildfire does)

- cheap plastic, design poorer (my opinion)

- 3 MP camera without flash

+++ Girlfriend extremely pleased with me and phone :)))

any more questions? :)
[Wildfire General] albert_htc:
:) Looks like a pretty even split for both phones.

Think I'll take the kids to the local Carphone warehouse and see which they prefer !!

Thanks
[Wildfire General] Alex_GP:
Don`t forget that GT540 DOES NOT have a capacitive touchscreen, it`s resistive (like old touch screen phones).
[Captivate General] thehyecircus:
It seems, no matter how closely I follow flashing directions, I cannot flash my phone. Not only that, at this point I am confused with what I should be doing. I rooted my phone, now I am trying to get Odin to work - but I have read that when you use Odin, it removes the root from your phone, so why did I root it in the first place?

Past that, Odin isn't working at all. Maybe I don't have all of the drivers installed, but I need help. Anyone out there right now?
[Captivate General] cruiserbax:
Sure, what service? I have gtalk, fb and well that's about it.

Edit: Cruiserbax helped me a ton, but I still have some questions and he left, is anyone else around who could help?
[Desire General] rottunix:
Hello all,

Just rooted my Desire (finally).

I can get su just fine... cool.

Now I have been reading that to get rw on /system I need to be in recovery and use adb. Is this the only way to get this rw?

Also where does the mounting of these fs take place? I found /etc/vold.fstab but that on is just for the sdcard.

If I can change the boot mount parameters would be great.

I also created an ext4 partition. Didn't try to mount it yet. But if I add this to the vold.fstab, when does the system mount it, at the end of the boot process or at the beginning? Because I was wondering if I can mount it and move/link some stuff to this partition aka app2sd to save some internal storage.

BTW I am running the HTC Desire unbranded stock rom (still).

Thanks.

[Desire General] _Dennis_:
Only other way to get ro is to s-off with alpharev.

There are two scripts for apps2sd I've used. Firerat's and darktremor's. If you search the cyanogen mod nightly their links are in there.

is motorolla droid 2 word edition out?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] xryousukex:
yes it is, and you can get it unlocked but you either have to buy the code off ebay or have verizon give you the code if you are their customer.

Also it is locked to US carriers so if you plan on using it on AT&T or T-Mobile in the US then its locked but the rest of the world, it should work fine.

I would also check to make sure it has your freq. in your country as well if you are out of the u.s

In Messages app, go to the "All messages" screen, press <-- (back arrow) button if neccessary. Press "Menu" button, tap "Settings", look for "Received notification", make sure this is checked. Below it is "Play notification sound". make sure this is unchecked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony_reilly:
I have the Desire HD and have the same issue. Your solution quoted above disables notification sounds for all messages, both new and delivery reports.

I came from the HTC Desire, and the functionality described in the first post is what I'm used to (i.e. Delivery Reports on, but no notifications in the status bar and no sounds. To see delivery reports, I just held on the message in question and tapped delivery report from the pop up menu)

Currently, when I send a message, I get a notification, like a new message coming in, and a message in the status bar showing me the status of the delivery. I don't want this. It is very annoying. I need Delivery reports. This is a deal breaker on the Desire HD for me and will stop using it if it's a "feature"! :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
Just make a recording of pure silence, then set it as a ringtone then select that as the notification sound for delivery status and presto it plays a silent ringtone for you.

My DHD had same problem just like yours from last week. So, I spend whole week to think what had I done before my DHD had problem. Today, I remembered that I closed Time Sync at last week. So I selected "Automatic" in "Settings -- Date & time". When I open Maps again, GPS is opened, and 3G is still running. I'm luckey!

fieldtest in symbian can do this

plz help me

i said i dont want this code plz read all the post
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zardoz99:
I don't think it is possible to do this on Android because you would need to interface with the radio code in a way that is not permitted. If I understand you correctly, YOU want to choose which tower the radio code locks onto and not allow it to do it automatically?

Does anyone have a list of the documented radio API that would allow you to make the cell selection? If there is no API call, then it can't be done.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omidzht:
thanks for your answer but why can symbian or nokia phone do this?

i could do this with symbian

each network tower had sepecefic number and with field test.sisx u could see some number of neighbor tower and enter the number and lock on another tower...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omidzht:
i still hope anyone or any android applicatoin provider can bulid this application

just dont forget that symbian phones have this app

thanks alot for all

i love my android
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zardoz99:
I think the reason that Symbian can do this is that was closed source and the manufacturers could do whatever they wanted.

Android on the other hand is open (slightly) and you have to make all calls to radio functions through the Android's Radio Interface Layer (RIL). I think this is because the actual radio code that drives the hardware can be manufacturer specific, so you need a generic wrapper to the upper layers.

If the RIL doesn't offer that functionality, then there is no way in to make it happen.

[TG01 General] gamerr120:
I was just wondering whether it is worth holding onto hope for the TG01, or should I upgrade to a WP7?!
[TG01 General] leeston2379:
It all depends on what you want, its not really a question anyone can answer for you. If you feel that you need WP7 then you should upgrade as there isn't any real movement in that area on the TG01, I'm not saying it won't happen but its probably a while off yet. Android is looking promising at the moment though and with the restrictions in place in WP7 like lack of SD card swapping android may be the way forward, but that's only my opinion. I personally will be hanging on to my TG01 for a little while yet, it does what I need the way I like it. I'll try Android and WP7 if they become available but i'm happy enough with 6.5.5 till then.

I hope this is of some help to you:)
[TG01 General] olyloh6696:
first of all wp7 eill be brought to hd2, then later it might get ported to our tishibas. i highly doubt so though, we have such a small communtiy, and there are lots of restrictions like multitouch. if we do get a working port, ir would be useless, alot of apps will not work on it.
[TG01 General] drupad2drupad:
If I was you, I would rather hang on to TG01 as irrespective of bad publicity it got initially (thanks to winmo 6.1) it's an excellent piece of hardware and gadget to be proud of! I have used HD2 and I have used TG01, and looking at it's sleek display, thin frame, light weight -and same power beast within - I don't think there is any winmo 7 or android phone ready to beat it!

It looks promising as pointed here, that we might see android on TG01 - which will be the best thing to happen to this beast. But if we don't I don't see any drawbacks with Sense roms, SPB Shell and even 6.5.5 titanium for now. WM7 porting on TG01 by the looks of it, very unlikely but not impossible. It's a difficult job to do and it won't happen overnight. If you can be patient for few months or even more, you might see android and/or WM7 on your TG01.

But irrespective of OS, I think, the hardware capacity of this beast is awesome!
[TG01 General] gamerr120:
Cheers guys for all your help, I think I shall be holding onto my tg01 for a little bit longer, the upgrade to WP7 can wait, I think i'd prefer to see it on the TG01 anyway, rather than any other phone :D

thanks again!

TG01 Rocks Guys

I am so happy with my toshi; even if there is no android or any wm7...!! With the SPB Shell upgrades and the Droid skins and the WM7 skin...you hardly need the actual OS, with this device I can change the UI whenever I want and everytime it becomes as good as using a new device...!! What more you want...!!

No other phone / tab in this display range can match TG01. It surely rocks..!!

[TG01 General] mrplatypus:
Sorry all, I am unhappy with my Toshiba TG01 phone.

True it is thin and it looks nice. But it is just not good enough for me.

The only reason why I am hanging on to it is the lack of WP7 phones available through Orange. I've been with them for a long while and Orange have been good for me.

My feelings with regards Android are out at the moment as I would much prefer to stick with windows mobile.

Come on Microsoft get your act together - bring WP7 as more of a competitor; bring SD Card swappable access in; and bring more WP7 phones available to all operators [especially via Orange :) ]

Found the buyer of the infamous WP7 TG01 recently sold on eBay

OK guys, this is just a shot in the dark, but I've just sent a message to the eBay buyer and invited him to join our forum. Not sure when he'll check his eBay messages or if he'll even bother to respond but it was worth a try.

Stay tuned...;)
[TG01 General] aeroflyluby:
Don't worry about WP7, we're working on it.
[TG01 General] Rila:
Nice try!

Of course you now that WP7 will never have a full functionality with the TG01 device. Because of the multi touch function witch miss in TG01!:eek:

I think Sense or Shell cover pretty well the User Interface and we will get no further functionality using WP7!:D

So my question is why everybody looks for WP7 or Android!:(
[TG01 General] CrashMurdock:
Thanks!:D I personally don't care about multi-touch on a screen this small. As a matter of fact I prefer using a stylus to not only keep the screen clean but also because it's more accurate with my big fingers, again for these small screens. I recently bought a used Viewsonic G-Tablet and the multi-touch is nice on its 10" screen.

I can tell you I'm very happy with fxdjacentyfxd's WM6.5 ROM. His support and tolerance for my newbie questions has been fantastic, to say the least! I really like WM 6.5 because I've previously been using a great XDA WM6.0 ROM on my HTC 8525 for almost three years.

So far I'm not very impressed with Android 2.3 on the G-Tablet, but I'm a total newbie to Android so need more tinkering time. The Vegan 7.0 custom ROM looks good and seems to be fairly fast, though.

I really haven't looked to see what WP7 is all about since it's not available for TG01. I can see where converting multi-touch to a single-touch resistive screen is probably a nightmare. Other than that, with its 1Ghz CPU I would think the TG01 should run it fine.

@aeroflyluby, I posted in this thread because I read through the WP7 forum again this morning and it appears nobody at XDA is working on WP7 for TG01. Of course, your subsequent post indicates otherwise. The TG01 is a great phone, other than the undersized battery (which I've solved with fxdjacentyfxd's help) and the infernal inaccurate battery meter. I don't know if WP7 or an Android port can fix that problem, but anything is worth a try.

Cheers, guys!;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neowilson:
Hi all,

I tried to research my problem but I can not find any help.

Here is what I found by my experiment for this weekend.

Problem: On Froyo ROMs, I can receive SMS but CAN NOT send sms. MMS and 3g Internet is working fine as well as voice call.

Question: How do I set SMSC on Froyo, or is there way to fix this?

My findings after experiments:

1. Everytime I flash, regardless the types of a Rom wheather they are modified or origianl or Froyo or Eclair I can not send sms but able to receive. All the other functions of 3G internet and mms seems to be fine after APN setting.

2. On Eclair and Froyo I have tried type *#*#4636#*#* and went to phone info section, typed the SMSC number (that is 0430004010, I'm in Australia using Three hutchison :) ) pressed update and refreshed but everytime if i going back to testing page, the Input section is empty -> some reason the SMSC number does not get saved. I tried put +61430004010, then it will tell me "error update" whereas the 0430004010 will not show me any message

3. On Eclair, Message -> setting -> Text Message (SMS) Setting has " Message Server" section. I typed +61430004010 and then all of the Roms able to send SMS. This was the fix for my problem on Eclair.

HOWEVER, on Froyo, some reason this section is not available. As there are only two section available "Delivery reports" and " Manage SIM card messages"

4. I have typed **5005*7672*+61430004010# on phone number pad, code rejected...

I have searched the this forum and other forums too.. No one came up with solution apart from SMSC number. But it seems to me that I can't save the number if I go testing page by typing *#*#4636#*#*. Is there other ways to do this ? or have I done something stupid and missed obvious mistake (as usual :) ) ???

Any thoughts or comments I would really appreciate

Cheers
