I'm happy if people were waiting for it to come to WP7 in order to switch, but I personally wasn't too impressed with the game.

It's pretty boring and definitely repetitive. The best redeeming quality is how many levels are included. (which is quite a few)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ricky119:
not released yet, but expecting
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Yea.

The funnest thing about the game is the Sound Effects (the birds cheering, so CUTE!!!). Boring game, though, IMO. By the time I got to the boomerang birds, I was more than ready to uninstall it.

If there's anything I hate in a game, it's monotanous repetition.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Did you get to the bomber birds...the ones that drop exploding eggs?
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
I was done after 30 minutes -_-

actually its not that great of a game. I was bored with it pretty fast

I personally don't need an RPG on my phone to kill some time.. Angry birds is a perfectly good time killer game..
[Windows Phone 7 General] SuperSport:
It's funny how many people post to say they don't like it. I think the download numbers speak for themselves... Two OS' have had MAJOR success, I don't think Windows Phone 7 will be any different.. ;). Great thing is, if you don't prefer it, it was free, and you can remove it.

Me personally, repetitive or not, it's a great time killer while sitting in the waiting room at the dr...

Thank You Rovio!

ok everyone...quickly go and take off the battery cover! to the right and slightly above the camera is a small rectangle. does anyone know what this is for? is it by chance the proccessor? so that we can remove and replace it with an upgraded model. or is it RAM? or perhaps something i don't even know of. i would unscrew the housing and look my self...but i'm still on contract and don't want to screw something up. anybody have a clue?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zer0_:
It's probably just a random peice that is connected to the motherboard lol
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmegaRED^:
You can't really swap parts inside the x10, it's not like a pc where the gpu, ram or cpu can just be pulled off and replaced with something else, most PC Board components in the x10 either "are or should be" soldered in place.

Changing a chip would be a act of insanity, as there can be many implications of errors or driver issue's that would ruin it.

Not even to mention having to some how safely unsolder and re-solder a new chip is just not the simplest task always.

I would looking because I hate the stock gallery. I use b&b gallery from the market. It's not the prettiest and looks like the g1 stock gallery. But it works great, is quick and what I was looking for. No glitches and I can see all my pics! Hope that helps you.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] PanCubano:
Yeah I realized that later. I only had the stock rom for 2 hours when a bought the phone. :/

Back up and try it. Decide for yourself. Everyother day or so someone starts a rom war post. You should go look at some of them.

CyanogenMod is like stock froyo on steroids with out any of the sense features or eye candy. Its a really good rom though. I go back and forth between the two.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightningtrip:
You are gonna have to decide that for yourself..each ROM has its own pros and cons
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anon_az:
I echo the sentiment of "Try some out for yourself" but I had CM6.0 on my G1 before moving to my G2 and I liked it. Very stable but the Market never quite worked right (FC's, apps not DLing for whatever reason, etc), other than that I loved its customizability. It ran pretty quickly on my G1 as well, for whatever it's worth.
[Nexus S General] Pete2s:
Is it 8GB for os + apps and 8GB for media? Or maybe a new file system with Gingerbread that does not allow USB mass storage but all 16GB for os + apps + media?
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
It's most likely 1-2gb for apps and the rest for /sdcard/ this is how the Vibrant is.

You'll never fill up 2gb worth of apps...
[Nexus S General] jlo5566:
So we are probably looking at roughly 14gb of available data stock? That's not that bad after all, most people are dealing with a 16gb microSD anyways. At least this will be faster... they should have made it 32gb or at least have the option... my heart is broken to have no removable storage (almost a deal-breaker)
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
It's not too terrible honestly. It's fully accessible when plugged into a PC. It's simply an internal SD card... Just copy the files off if you want them moved. No huge deal imho. Not that I wouldn't have preferred it to be external (bought a new 16GB class 4 for nothing)
[Nexus S General] Pete2s:
Developers cite the lack of app memory as a reason why they don't port games to Android. I'm disappointed Google hasn't addressed this issue yet beyond Apps2SD, which only moves part of programs.

As a comparison, on my late iPhone 3G, I filled up 2GB in apps in a couple hours. Myst alone was around 700-800MB.
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
Err what? That's the point of the SD Cards. It is very easy for an game to download it's resources onto the SD Card... I own an iPad. Android and iPad do things differently. Both approaches work.
[Nexus S General] Superfrag:
I believe the /data partition which holds the apps(AFAIK) is about 1 GB from the screenshots.
[Nexus S General] nellyspageli:
very disappointing that over a year after the moto droid launches, we have moved to internal storage (which should give more room for more memory) and we are still stuck at 16gb
[Nexus S General] neok44:
The galaxy S line works like this:

2GB /Data partition for apps

13GB /sdcard partition that acts exactly like an SD card.

The extra missing 1GB is most likely the system storage.
[Nexus S General] gogol:
The storage for app is about 1GB. See screenshot from Engadget :

http://www.engadget.com/photos/google-nexus-s-hands-on/#3644046

See screenshot no. 45.

There you go, happy?

I think I am fine with it. Right now I am using HTC Desire with its pathetic 40MB storage for app. So, 1GB is a huge upgrade for me :)
[Nexus S General] Smokexz:
Check Engadget, they explain that apps can be placed in the internal extra space to substitute for the lack of SD card, still not great but at least you know Google knew this would be an issue, and fixed it. Honestly, the market is full of great 3d games, if I were to download all of the great 3d games in the market, I would still have enough space on the device for my 5 gigs of music, they don't take that much space.
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
Well not only you lose external SD you also lose 1GB of internal application storage

GalaxyS has 2GB free of application storage

Nexus S only has 1GB

Seriously dont get all these cut backs

BTW the 13GB is same on both phones

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IegTiCa6RTQ
[Nexus S General] saint327:
Honestly, I would like it customizable. Like in a OS on a PC you can resize partitions with relative freedom. I would like to delegate what I want to app storage and general storage.
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
You use to be able to do that on windows mobile back in the day
[Nexus S General] theimpaler747:
You can on the hero CDMA with firerat's mod

would of rather the 2GB to be on the safe side, but 5 times the space of the nexus one sounds pretty damn good to me.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jkinnison90:
I'm just wondering, how would one go about removing the AM/PM from the clock on the notifications bar? I know in CM there's an option for it, but what would it take to do so on sense?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Estimated Prophet:
This just made me realize how useless that AM/PM is and how much space it would clear up on the status bar. I took a quick look through services.jar before work, but I wasn't able to find it. I'll go through it some more tonight.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
awesome ive been looking for this mod as well. i want the clock to remain though.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jkinnison90:
Same here.. it must be somewhere.. to bad there just isn't a setting for it like on cm 6.1.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] deathpod:
May not be exactly what you're looking for but one easy way is to enable the 24 hour option in Settings -> Date & Time.

That will free up a bit of space at least.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
don't want 24hr time but thanks. if cm6 can have the mod im sure sense roms can too.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Estimated Prophet:
Unfortunately, I didn't end up getting home until around midnight so I still haven't really looked into this. I had a dream that somebody posted in this thread and told me what smali file it was in and I was pretty disappointed this morning when I realized it didn't really happen :P
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
hopefully we can get a dev to do this for us.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jkinnison90:
There's a thread somewhere in this section with a topic on how to remove icons from the noti bar like gps time battery and more.. maybe that person could help us.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CzarDestructo:
So I'm surprised that Cyanogen is the only ROM to date that actually addresses the A2DP audio quality problem with the Vibrant. By default the stock kernels lock in the bitpool setting at 32 when it can be set as high as 54. As a result the 'highs' sound distorted and tinny as if I'm listening to music streaming through RealPlayer circa 1997. Why more people aren't complaining about this is a mystery but there are a lot of people that aren't happy.

To the developers, is this bitpool setting in Bluez something thats rolled into the kernel when compiling or is it something that can be easily changed? Possibly a configuration file? I've googled this issue to death over the last three months hoping for a solution to pop up, I've read up on Bluez but the documentation is poor. Does anyone have more information or can point me in the right direction to solving this myself? Having to wire up my phone every morning for music is driving me nuts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattymat:
I couldn't agree more man. I am going nuts over the horrible quality. I think it hasn't been addressed as much because not as many people have bluetooth stereo headphones or bluetooth adapters in their cars. Cross your fingers.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattymat:
I can't believe that no one has said anything about this being fixed. There has to be a way of manually going into the root directory and adjusting the bitpool information that you're referring to. The tinniness is killing me man!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kubernetes:
Weird, but I don't have any sound quality issues over BT.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBrandonWRX:
Couldn't agree more OP. BT is seriously jacked on these. It works, but not like it should quality wise.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zimphishmonger:
Ya, the BT streaming audio doesnt sound nearly as good as wired. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable regarding the subject could chime in, I know Supercurio did a lot of reverse engineering for sound quality, but I dont know if he worked on A2DP
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CzarDestructo:
Devs moved it from Development to Q&A... not sure I agree with that as I don't think this is a setting as much as its a fundamental portion of the kernel and needs to be rolled into a released ROM.

Just got my new bt streaming head unit for Xmas and couldn't be more disappointed. I'm having the exact same issue and am also frustrated at the lack of interest in the problem.

I'm not a Dev BY any means, but I can sometimes hack and slash my way through stuff like code. If cm fixed it,and his source is available, I don't understand why more kernel devs aren't including it in their kernels. Do you think if someone like netarchy asked cyanogen what he did for that, the cyanogen guys would share?

I want to do something to fix this for all android devices, but I don't know where to start other than start pming devs and hope they listen. :-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CzarDestructo:
I'm baffled at how few people notice or care that the bluetooth audio is rubbish on essentially most new android handsets. They're multimedia hubs and can do most everything, and yet the audio doesn't work properly. I'm really discouraged at this point. I've had this handicapped phone for 6 months now hoping someone would fix this eventually but apparently I was naive. I'm tempted to recommission my 2.5 year old G1 to take care of audio duty in my car since modern Android builds aren't up to the task.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
I'm gonna be looking into it for my next kernel =] I didnt know this was an issue because I really dont use BT......are you guys wanting to use BT for music? is that what this is? Cause honestly music stream over BT is like rubbing you D with sand paper and saying it feels good (IMHO). BT audio compression reduces the audio quality to much for my taste, but I'll fix it anyways =P
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FReQ Z:
Hey ECOTOX, does the BT audio control function reside in the kernel? Or the ROM? My fwd/back buttons aren't working on my headset.

I tried using the gingerbread keyboard. Very nice indeed.

My question is:

Does the gingerbread keyboard implement the BlindType technology Google recently bought. I am thinking not; since i tried a little and didn't see much difference.

But anybody have info on that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndroidOS.FTW:
Another question. Is the Swype keyboard still and option?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Falcyn:
Swype is completely separate from the Gingerbread keyboard (or any other keyboard), and you can have as many different keyboards installed at once as your phone has space for. I have 4 or 5 keyboards, including Swype, on my phone.

Hello

The Mega is my first smartphone, and thanks to xda I found lots of usefull info and apps to customize it just like i want :)

I think now it's time to share some apps I did mostly for my own use, but maybe usefull for some other people.

Well, here are two simple applications:

RotateMon

- The first, "rotatemon" (stupid name I know... :p) is designed to run invisible in background and simply rotate the screen to landscape if one the following apps are launched: sms /mms ; opera mobile 10 and notes (notes.exe)

When you exit the app, the screen is restored to previous orientation. (meaning if you already are in landscape, you will stay in landscape)

I did this app because i couldn't found something doing this the way i want. I know there are mortscript scripts to do this, but not exactly like this. (and there's a problem with tmail.exe with this method, because mortscripts checks if a windows exist, but sometimes tmail.exe runs in background with the same window title "SMS / MMS" as the active window, so we must check if it is really active or in background...)

I know it's possible too to assign a long key press to the action "rotate sceeen", but I was tired of long pressing this key everytime i launched opera or the sms program...

Well just try it if you want, and let me know what you think about it, it's very usefull for me, maybe for you too :)

You can launch it at startup like I did (for example with sktools or something equivalent).

Please understand that I did it for myself, so it's "customized" for me (the apps that are monitored to trigger the rotation). If it is usefull for someone else I'll be happy to provide a more "user friendly" version (with the ability to configure what apps are monitored for example). Don't hesitate to ask :)

StayAlive -update 28/12/2010: now with a nice interface, install cab, more user friendly :) -

Another very simple program, designed to keep wifi "alive" even when the device is in sleep mode. It's a simple switch: ON/OFF, based on the registry key Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms\HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended , you can switch the "StayAlive state" when wifi is on or off, doesn't matter, and the state is keep after a soft reset.

This tool can the display alive too, it provides a simple switch On/OFF to keep the display alive (doesn't prevent locking, well sometimes it locks and sometimes not, don't really know why..., but the screen stay on). Please note that the screen will not stay on at full backlight level, it will stay on at the "lower" backlight level (to prevent too much power drain...)

Ps:Sorry for my poor english :p
[Touch2 General] Mobtel063:
how to remove this software from phone?

rotatemon
[Touch2 General] seb3773:
You just have to delete the program folder. If it's running, kill it with a taskmanager before of course (or soft reset). If you put it in your startup, remove it before, then kill the process or soft reset, then delete the folder.

No modifications are made to the system :)
[Touch2 General] xdausergo:
ROTATEMON

Hi seb3773 I like you rotatemon very much. It is what I need, but since I have used Swype I had to turn it off. When the screen rotate my swype keyboard don't rescale well and the screen is cut out on te right side.

I would be grateful if you could disable sms rotation in your program?

or maybe some "user friendly" version above-mentioned?
[Touch2 General] seb3773:
I'm proud if it is usefull for you too :) A more user friendly version is coming soon, as i'm actually unemployed :( , i've plenty of time to do it. I intend to program a configuration interface with some nice features. It will be ready in 1/2 days :)

Tomorrow I am planning on flashing my HTC Evo to MetroPCS.

I have a few questions, as this is my first android phone.

1. What exactly is happening when I "flash" the Evo to MetroPCS?

2. My Evo is running 2.2 right now, when "flashed" to MetroPCS would I be able to update from 2.2 to 2.3 (Gingerbread) later?

3. What exactly are roms and rooting? When I have my phone flashed is someone "rooting" my phone?

Thank you in advanced

P.S. I do understand when I flash my phone to Metro I will lose 3g and 4g functionality.

Forget about metropcs. They're the ones who take your money and allow you to make calls and access internet. You don't flash them...(unless you want to flash them in the window at their office)

Its just you and the phone. You flash the image to the phone. But what's the rush to root? What do you want to do as root?
[General Questions and Answers] cliffordconradsumner:
Rooting your phone allows you to make all sorts of changes thatyou otherwise wouldn't be able to make.

I wouldn't forget about metro but do know that you're going to have to jump throung quite a few hoops to get data and MLS working properly on there network. I don't think anyone has it working right on 2.3 right now.

Basically, you will need to get your meid added to their network and you'll have talk and text, then you'll need to root your phone and make some changes to get data and mms working.
