I'm using the stock 2.1 app. I think i'm fine with WVGA for now. 720p is just so huge, and I can't directly upload videos that are as huge as that.

Is there a good Android turn-by-turn navigation program that uses openstreetmap? I'd like to be able to pre-load the map. I really miss the Garmin on my old touch pro 2.

Hello fellow filipinos, any idea where to buy case-mate barely there for DHD? Sa ebay, UK and Australia galing eh, i'm afraid it might get lost in transit, and it might take too long.
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
It will not get lost in transit but it will take long :)
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
Pics mate pics!! :D hahahahaha I need a new case for my boy hahaha
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Post ko later... Mejo mainit ngayon at andami ko na daw case. Lol

Gaia GPS is good, no turn by turn but cheaper than Sygic. It might be free again from Amazon soon. Or TomTom for Android.

[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Hi guys, bought myself an HTC Flyer yesterday at "that store in front of Cibo", Ambassador Appliances. Saw the sensation as well. Both are all over Cyberzone as well. I've also tested the Acer A500 Iconia Tab, which felt really chunky and like cheap plastic. Maski yung mga edges hindi pantay.

Anyway, I started out opting to get the SGT 10.1, but I figured the Flyer would support my tablet needs more. Especially for the price of 30k, I'd get 32GB storage expandable to 64GB, 3G connectivity and a really solid build we could only get from HTC.

My only concern was the screensize; I had to see it for myself. And when I did, it's great for media consumption!

I don't really care much for dual core on phones and tablets as of yet as nothing is optimized for them yet. The 1.5ghz snapdragon of the Flyer is fine by me.

The flyer has not yet been rooted as of yet, but I'm pretty sure it will be soon. I'm still enjoying stock at the moment. And when it gets rooted, I'll have a 7" phone. :D At the moment, only messages work. There's no phone.apk. But that's why I have my "phone" -_-.

The Flyer comes with a white leather case with microfiber lining inside. It also comes with a Magic Pen which is quite fun to use and somewhat useful as well. I've used it to get into maps, highlight my route and save it as a picture.

It also has HTC Locations, which I hope they improve upon, and GPS functionality.

The camera is like the DHD's but has no LED flash.

I'm currently testing out audio/video as I am now pushing my media onto the device.

I was never a fan of the 7" form factor. But after handling the big boys, 7" is right for mobility.

I've tried stock Honeycomb 3.0 on the Iconia Tab as well. Nothing great. It's just a bigger screen for widgets. Yeah, nothing great. Although the Flyer is headed for Android 3.2 and will be upgraded to ICS end of this year.

Hope you guys make the jump as well. :D

I can't seem to find the "|" symbol on my DHD anywhere.
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
Need to know which keyboard you are using. Using Swype just click SYM and then long press 4. It does not appear in the HTC keyboard. The stock Android keyboard click ?123 then alt. Hope this was helpful.

Chris
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Thanks. I'm using the HTC keyboard. Is there no way to get that symbol? I really like the HTC Keyboard and I dont want to change.
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
You can always switch long enough to use the symbol and then switch back. Long press on a text input box and select Input Method. Personally I have tried them all and I always go back to Swype. The new 3.0 beta its hand down the best I have ever used.

Chris
[Desire HD General] urbangear:
in htc keyboard press "12#", "1/2" and it's the symbol next to ">"
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
Not to argue but ¦ and | are different characters. Maybe my HTC keyboard is different, custom ROMs and all, I don't know.
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Thanks for the replies but that's not it. I tried emailing the | to my phone and ¦ is really different. Isn't there a character map for android or something? I tried adding | to the personal dictionary but it wont accept it. It just appears as blank.
[Desire HD General] kuklux:
just use swiftkey X keyboard you will be find that symbol
[Desire HD General] junta_mpb:
I just tried the xoom today and Honeycomb is a wonderful experience. The hardware is good, but quite heavy. It was very responsive, however I was not able to try all the features.

I'm sold on honeycomb, but ill wait for q3 before buying anything. I also want to try out the GT 10.1.
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
The pipe (|) symbol isn't available on the stock keyboard. Seems HTC used the wrong ASCII table and used the broken pipe (¦) instead.

Consider the suggestions above, like swype (v3 is very good though I seem to always have to enable it on boot) or Better Keyboard 8... :-)

@Jacob, I've changed my RIL for Honeysense. What RIL would be best for TBF3D? or others?
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
What's this IME animation? :)
[Desire HD General] PH_750:
As long as it is matching Radio and RIL, it should not be a problem. I recommend Radio_12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M and its equivalent RIL, i get good battery consumption with this radio.
[Desire HD General] arvinsheet:
thanks man..
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Keyboard animation instead of just appearing abruptly, similar to Eclair. Android dropped it in Froyo, now its back :-) it works for any keyboard.
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
My radio and ril hasn't failed me yet since switching to GB builds. You can try it, tested from LD, RCMixHD to TBF... its in my signature :-)

+1 its really a matter of what works for you with the rom you're on. I usually just stick to what works regardless of the recommended ones from devs :-)
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Np dude... Hope it works out ;-)
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Guys what video player do you recommend for the DHD? Something that can play many different file formats. Thanks!
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
Rockplayer is the best I have found. The only thing it does not do is DLNA.

Tried contacting them a lot of times, they said they have no stocks, and they have no supplier yet.

It's been a while since i flashed a new radio :D

Tested new radio 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M(with corresponding RIL 2.2.0153HM Apr 22 2011) overnight:

1.) Better battery life. Used to drop 5-6% in 8 hours, now just dropped 3%

[Desire HD General] chardd23:
guys i cant decide malapit na ang sweldo :))

CaseMate POP,Barely There or OTTERBOX COMMUTER.

Sa ngayon POP talaga gusto ko pero

1. Madali daw magasgas ung likod.

2. NagFlakes daw ung rubber.

3. Bulkier than Commuter

4. Blocks GPS and other SIGNALS

pero i like it because Aesthetic siya tignan :p

Commuter naman.

1. Mejo maluwag daw ung sa buttons nya sa volume at sleep/wake

2. Madulas ung likodan.

3. Panget tignan :( (tama ba?)

Barely There

1. Less Protection

2. Hirap pindotin volume and sleep/wake.

I cant buy these 3 atm.

Ano po kaya ang BEST BUY?

sino may mga CM POP! jan?
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
IMO

If you're careful with your stuff, don't get a casing. You bought the thing for the aluminum and now you're gonna cover it up.

If you're average, get a Capdase silicon case and forget about getting it scratched/dented.

If you're clumsy, get a Defender.

Don't buy something half-baked or something with little annoyances. You'll just end up replacing it with what you really want.
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
I have to agree. I used my phone for

6 months without a case and no issues. It wasn't until I was leaving for Afghanistan that I got a case. And I only got it because the only screen protector I could find came with a case. The screen protector is gone now, but the capdase silicone case is great.
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:

@jacob

meron ako nyan. ganyan nga gamit ko pero after 3months naluma ung kulay nya.greenish na siya tapos ang luwag kasi patangal tangal ako dahil sa mga bootloops.

pano nga pala ung naglilibag ung rubber ng casematepop?
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
TBF and TBF3D are on their final version...
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Since we're talking about cases, I have a Capdase Silicon case. It's perfect for me, aside from one thing. It blocks the GPS signal.

Without the case, i can get a lock in a few seconds. With the case on, itll take minutes, and sometimes it wont lock at all. But the case itself is really good. Good protection, and good grippy feel. The buttons are kind of hard to press but I can get used to it.

Thats my only problem, the GPS signal is badly blocked. So I decided to get a cutter, and cut the part thats blocking the GPS. Good news is that it worked! GPS signal is now good with the case on. Bad news is that it looks so ugly now. I screwed up when cutting and the cut at the back looks horrible.

I'm probably gonna get myself a new case. You guys know what case is good, and doesnt block GPS signal? I read around that case-mate barely there doesnt block GPS signal so much? It does block but not so much? But it doesnt offer much protection. What other options are there?
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Pics...

As promised... Here are some Case-fake pron :D

Sorry for the pic quality, iP4 ang gamit... :p
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
I have the same problem with GPS reception. Fortunately I don't use mine that often so I just remove the case when I need to.
[Desire HD General] arvinsheet:
Question po,

Is there a way to enhance the wifi range of DHD? My girlfriend's iPhone 3GS is getting the signal inside our room and mine doesnt. :confused:
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Change radio (include RIL) ;)
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Fortunately I don't experience radio interruptions with my cases even inside the room, GPS locks in 30secs. Must be area related too though...
[Desire HD General] arvinsheet:
What radio should I use ? I'm still with RCMix3D KINGDOM v1.5 . . . :D
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
You know v1.8 is out today and it includes the wifi fix that will resolve your weak signal. No need to change radio, just upgrade your ROM.
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Does the radio also affect GPS signal? Usually mine takes a while to get a lock on cold start. And once in a while, my cell network signal drops to zero for no reason and will come back in a while. Doesnt happen to my other phones on the same network. Im currently using the ARHD recommended radio
[Desire HD General] kochiro:
Have you guys tried the app fasterfix?
[Desire HD General] chardd23:
wow ganda pala nya. di siya ung transparent, pero until when kaya magtatagal ung fit nya. kinontact ko ung dckmobile, wala daw sila CM POP sa ngayon,puro pang ip4. siguro ung barelythere din.

Baka bilhin ko nalang ung commuter.

1 year warranty naman di ba kahit bilhin ko sa stall dun sa sm north?
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
Commuter pics ;)
[Desire HD General] chardd23:
wow gwapo nga ni commuter!!!!!!!!!!!!

madulas ba sobra ung likudan nya or tama lang? mahirap ba pindutin ung volume at sleep/wake button?
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
Jacob, now that we have the GSM version of the Evo 3D, what's gonna be? Evo 3D? or Sensation? :D

I think i want the Evo 3D, larger battery :D and an added bonus, 3D :D
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
To me, grip is just fine (mas slippery kung walang case). Volume button is ok, but a bit challenging on the power button :)
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
I have the exact same case. Hindi ka nahihirapan ipress yung power/sleep button? I cut out mine kasi ang hirap i-access.
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
Any ROM on your radar other than TBF? :)
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
I want a real WP7 port.
[Desire HD General] tingardz:
EVO 3D RAP
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
I'm sure it'll last as long as hindi aalisin from time to time. Kahit yung original eh lumuluwang din kaka-alis. Commuter is good for the price... Binenta ko lang dahil nagka Defender ako ;)

Mejo leaning towards EVO3D... Although Engadget said the 3D funtions (video and pics) take too much out of the battery but there are reviews of Sense 3 having absolutely no lag on it on account of the 1mb ram. I'll watch out for it and read more reviews. I still have till December to decide anyway :D

Not really, may sweet spot sya (left side ng power button) pero mejo makunat nga... lol I just use TapTap App for locking and unlocking minsan. Nagulat ako sa quality nya actually... Nakakatuwa :D

Not sure yet, maybe Virtuous Unity... Naghahabol pa sa updates, kakagaling lang sa sakit. Offline pa ng 1.5 days. Sana may rotation port ng MyTouch4G slide... Trip lang :D
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Maganda nga yon... kaso kahit yung Mango update eh di pa available sa WP7 users.
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Powerskin

Hi guys, I found this while skimming through YT. It might visually explain how big the Powerskin is for the DHD :D

Its for HD7 and he made it fit the HD2... Seems pretty close as to how it might look like for the DHD...

What's that buddy?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Guys, I'm planning to buy a tab, which of the following is worth buying? HTC Flyer, Galaxy tab 10.1 or Acer Iconia Tab A501?
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Google+ is skype/twitter/fb rolled into one + google apps integration and android integration.

Regarding your tablet, you should ask yourself these first:

1. What would you be using it for?

2. Where would you be using it?

3. What are the important things you can't live without?
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
+1

...... :D
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
I think I'ma drop the Galaxy Tab 'cause I don't need to send SMS with it I just need it for my online shop so I can check it and respond to customers' queries when I'm outside :) It's hard to check with my DHD.
[Desire HD General] arvinsheet:
Question po,

How do i flash mods in rcmixhd kingdom? cant find instructions in their thread..
[Desire HD General] junta_mpb:
I would get the WiFi only GT 10.1 if HTC can't come up with a good tablet later this year. I've tried the xoom and found it good, but heavy.
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
CWM still... It'll be the same even if its EXT4, you just have to mount system before flashing though RCMK is still EXT3 right?
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
I agree pero if I were to get a tablet, I'd get something that runs HC para maiba naman...
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Things to consider when buying a tablet:

1. OS (current and upgradable to)

2. Form factor size (media consumption and affects battery life as well)

3. Portability (weight and form factor size as well)

4. Dev Support (nothing clear on this but the Flyer has a locked bootloader as of yet)

5. Manufacturer Support (Samsung and HTC listen to their customers)

6. Battery Life

7. Build Quality (Plastic/Aluminum vs. Weight and Portability)

Different strokes for different folks. :)
[Desire HD General] Kasush:
Is nobody excited about the Asus Transformer? I have been reading the reviews and it seems rock solid.
[Desire HD General] marvdmartian:
Anyone here from Cebu? Any idea where I can get a case-mate barely there? Thanks
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
I was excited about the Transformer. It's a solid device. It was one of my 2 choices. The other one being the SGT 10.1.

But I've strayed from the 10.1 form factor and there was only one choice. :)
[Desire HD General] junta_mpb:
I agree. HC is a wonderful experience even when some have complaints. It's a great tablet OS.
[Desire HD General] redlinux:
Long time no post? How are you guys doing here? :)
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
I'm doing fine. dev for the DHD seems to be slowing down now..
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Still discussing as it turns out, how are things in CD?

Btw, I just checked the Sensation earlier against my better judgement... It didn't seem too enticing but it does feel extremely better on hand, friendlier and durable build though.

I thought I was gonna feel the tingle and impulse to buy but good thing I didn't. I still like my DHD better. Maybe it has a lot to do with the root issue and its a good thing to maybe wait for the EVO3DGSM to compare... :)
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
Okay, 2.37 can now be downgraded. My question is, when creating a gold card, do I need to have a spare sd card for it? I'm a little confused. We 2.37 users need to have this gold card to be able to push the 1.32 build to our phones.
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
I think so since creating a gold card is like formatting it with set presets. After that get supercid so you wont need a goldcard afterwards. Good luck!
[Desire HD General] junta_mpb:
I won't be changing my dhd for the sensation, but my wife has an old desire that needs an upgrade and the sensation is perfect for that.
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
I'm on softbank now, just waiting for the stock img to finish and then flash it then finally root, s-off and then finally flash custom ROM :D
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
I'm having problems with pushing the file using cmd, device not found? but my device is connected via USB and in charge mode only...

I just have to install HTC Sync >.< Got it, now on 1.32, proceeding with S-Off

I'm trying Honey Sense, I downloaded their files I got RIL, HSHD 6.2.1, Honeysense HD EXT4, HSHD 6.2.2 and Honesense HD 6.2.

I read the guide here on how to flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964996&highlight=FLASHING+ROM

but I'm pretty much confused on which one should I do first and etc. Like those two HSHD 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 what are those for?

Sorry if I'm bothering you guys.
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Steps:

1. Flash Honeysense HD EXT4 (this formats your partitions to use EXT4 filesystem.)

2. Flash Honeysense HD 6.2 (this is the complete ROM. it's a big file.)

3. Boot it up first.

4. Flash HSHD 6.2.2 (this is the current update.)

5. Go to Recovery again and flash the RIL.

6. Flash the Font Fix (found in the downloads site. download it first.)

7. Boot it up again.

And you're done. :)

EDIT:

Before connecting to the internet/wifi/3g, get on to the weather app, menu, settings, turn off weather sounds. This causes FC's.

Anyone? From Cebu? I've been everywhere looking for a Case-Mate Barely There. I can't find :|

or does anyone know a store from Manila that sells it? I'll probably just have one bought there. Or even better if the store can ship too.

So, I can just put all the files all at once in my SD card right?
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
Yup! And follow the steps above :)
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Yup. Just be sure to reboot first after flashing the full ROM. Otherwise it'll end in a bootloop.

Just wanted to ask.. Any recommended water proof cases for our phone?
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:

Nevermind done it :) Thank you sooo much guys!! :) So it's pretty much the same process for all ROMs right?
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Pretty much. Congrats dude. :D Enjoy better battery life and performance :D
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:

[Desire HD General] tingardz:
Congrats dude! :cool:
[Desire HD General] timoti.sy:
Theming bugs are something to expect from HS since it's a fully themed ROM. :) There are still some options that the update hasn't fixed but I've accepted that for better performance and battery life.

You could always hold your finger down on it to read it.

Congrats btw! My advice is to try out every ROM so you get a feel of what's best for you. They're all the same but there are some that people like more than others. Yan naman yung masaya sa pagrooroot eh. :)

There are also ROMS that support lots of theming options with regards to icons, bootanimations, scrolldown bar, app dock, the whole launcher, battery icons and even the color schemes.

Have fun! And congrats again for taking the leap!

is there any chance I can install the default camera app for dhd???

thanks again :)
[Desire HD General] Jacob1369:
My DHD will stay with me as well... here's a cheaper way we DHD users (or any 2D display) can get on the 3D wagon ;)

Not precisely sure if 100% compatible but you can flash the Sense 2.1 camera from TB or TBF. Seo made 2.1 stuff compatible with S3 ports and on the lockscreen etc. so that might work :D

[Desire HD General] redlinux:
@ Jacob

Sergio's coming up with the next ROM versionfor CD.

@ All

With the new Virtuous Unity ROM, I realized that I don't really want the EVO3D GSM that bad. I'm using Sense 3.0 (specially with CoreDroid) and there's not really much of a difference. Aside from the 3D effect it offers, I don't think there are other features on the phone that will surprise me. The EVO3D GSM version pre-orders have begun and, rumors has it, that it will start shipping sim-free (open line) units from UK starting September 1 for 570 Euros or $800+.

I think I'll just pass for now. Probably I'll wait for this coming holiday season and see what's coming. I heard the next Google Nexus phone from Samsung boasts a 720p screen. I wonder what other phone manufacturers are preparing as well. :)
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
Thanks so much buddy :) I'ma give this ROM a week or a two I really like it's theme but is there a way to change the message app from the lock screen from stock app to Handcent?
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
Thanks buddy :)) Nainggit na kasi ako sa inyo eh hahaha!!
[Desire HD General] thenocturnalnurse:
Hmmm Honeysense 7.0 is coming soon, how do I flash this one? will I just flash this on top of my 6.2 or I still need to wipe and flash 7.0?

Its always good to wait but its also not easy to resist temptation :D
