[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Garret:
After doing some googling and checking a few youtube videos, I decided to order the Boxwave Capacitive Stylus ( Jet Black ) as I wanted to used various sketch / painting / note taking apps and using my fingers wasn't really practical..

I ordered the stylus through their official site and it was shipped on Nov 30th, its destination being Athens, Greece.

Checking my order status I saw it was saying "estimated delivery date : Dec 10th", so having not received the item by Dec 17th I sent them an e-mail to inquire about it.

I soon got a very polite reply stating that international orders can take up to 4 weeks and that I should contact them again if the stylus wasn't here by Dec 30th.

I thanked them and suggested that they put an extra notice next to the "orders details" page on the site and I was surprised to see that not only they replied quickly, but they were also particularly helpful and assured me that my wish would be forwarded to their web developers.

1-2 days after that though I received my stylus and I'm very happy with it, it feels like a real pen and that rubber tip is doing a great job painting & keeping my Tab's screen safe :)

My only gripe was that the tip was not as fine as I'd like, however doing a quick check I noticed that all capacitive styli have thicker tips than the usual styli.

Support answered again thanking me for my feedback and informing me that:

"(Due to most capacitive screens being programmed to register input through the touch of a finger, and to register inputs without sufficient surface area contact as noise/interference, the Capacitive Stylus with a point tip is somewhat like the holy grail that companies like us are all seeking for. Our product engineers are working on a solution as we speak.)"

What more can I say? I'm really impressed, they kept thanking me for my e-mails,constantly reminding me that they are there to help me should I require assistance / have any further concerns..and they were very polite, helpful and straight to the point every time I needed them!

Highly Recommended!

Nice to know. May look into this one once I get my tab.

Yeah, thanks for the info. I may also investigate.

I just got a Boxwave stylus pen combo. It works great also. Works great with Phatwares WritePad.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] natious:
that looks nice, do you just keep it in your pocket?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] jah:
I have the Boxwave stylus but can't find an app for just inputting hand written notes. There are lot of such apps for the iPad and they work really well with the Boxwave stylus. Any suggestions for a suitable app?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] upperkingjr:
I am also looking for a free writing program simular to onenote from microsofts tablet os program.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Grantf44:
I bought writepad (Phatware.com). Out works great. It works as a input keyboard so you can use it when your taking notes our use the built in input devices when that is more efficient. It was $10 well worth it if you take a lot of notes in meetings as I do.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] knightnz:
I may have to look at something like this as even on the tab my sausage-like fingers have issues at times.

Nice to see a post about a positive experience with a company for a change! I have dealt with Boxwave in the past for a few of their minisync cables and they've always seemed to be pretty good although I don't recall if I ever had to actually contact them about anything. Their prices tend to be pretty reasonable too.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] HAXSUNG GAL:
Hi There, I have ordered items from Boxwave multiple times including the mini-capacitive stylus (I ordered two in different colors) and various sleeves for my Evo. I have been impressed each time with their promptness and level of customer service. The mini-capacitive stylus works great with my Evo, My G-Tab and my Epic. My smart-phone wielding friends and colleagues like them and I referred everyont to Boxwave's website to buy some of their own. With all the competition out there for our hard earned money it's nice to find one company deserving of the accolades.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] azrienoch:
I saw these but the tip is too big to be precise at all. So I found a stylus by htc that is extremely fine-tipped and accurate. It has this little red dot in the middle of a small plastic magnifying glass. Google "htc red dot stylus" to check it out.

So as many of you know I have recently lost my beloved HD2. Now I am shopping for new device and narrowed it down to few devices, but believe it or not on top of the list its still HD2. So specify which you would pick and why as it would be very helpful to me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JesusFreak316:
Only reason I'd get the HD2 over the others is its hackability. If you just want an Android device and don't want to multiboot I'd personally get the G2 because I like hardware keyboards but the MT4g is better if you don't care about that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperNode:
LOL the customizability is the only reason I was even considering this device as I haven't seen anything like it. This device has access to more platform ATM then any other device. So I was super pissed when I lost it. I mean I paid $750 for the Leo1024 unlocked version and got it on TMobile months before it was released to the general public. But at this point I am not welling to pay $300 for this phone when its 1 year old, thats just crazy. I went for the G2 also but later moved to MT4G as its going for $300 also and its better device.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperNode:
MT4G 7/8

TMobile

(WON) MT4G vs G2

(WON) MT4G vs Vibrant

(WON) MT4G vs HD7

Sprint

(WON) MT4G vs Evo 4G

(WON) MT4G vs Epic 4G

AT&T

(WON) MT4G vs iPhone 4

Other

(WON) MT4G vs Nexus S

MT4G vs Desire HD (WON)

Well, after comparing many phones to MT4G in many areas like spec, benchmark, IRL usability (browser, map, cam, ect). This is the overall result I got in my opinion so I am not trying to be biased here as I myself voted for HD2. But the only device that did beat MT4G in my opinion was Desire HD which is what I wanted only if they supported 3G in USA, hell IDK why HTC make stupid decisions. I know ill be super pissed of if they realse DHD in USA with US model just like they did with HD2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperNode:
Looks like I have made my decision as I already placed order for MT4G, in the end I was not welling to pay $300 for old device top of that idiots are selling it claiming "like new" lol we all know its used, so let them have their cake and eat it also. I now hope that MT4G community is also rich as ours and hope it grows in development also or ill be super pissed as HD2 hackablity is unbeaten.

hello friends

happy christmas 2 all of u

hope u people are fine

i am comming from htc hero g2 there we have a app2sd where in all the application are saved to sd card... i am using samsung vibrant from last 5 months and now since i have installed lots of games and apps . i have a query that is there any limitation for installing the apps (apart from internal memory)

is there any way or tip to increase the size of data folder
[Vibrant General] VeryCoolAlan:
Nah dude okay the reason those 1st gen phones have it is because they only had like 150 mb of storage where as the vibrant has over a gigabyte of storage. In froyo it does it but I miss the rooted style

I had a g1 with 350 apps at one time and it ran smooth

But the vibrant gets slower since it os using internal and not external

Too bad there are no roms that support apps2sd rooted but you can always download an app
[General Questions and Answers] breakingspell:
Well, after about 3 weeks of using Windows Mobile 6.5 on my new Samsung Epix (yeah, i know, old handset), I managed to break swf support.

I had it set up so that "File Explorer Extension" would open SWF files in Internet Explorer, without quoting the filename, and i had Flash Mobile 7 installed to handle it from there. It worked rather flawlessly.

The other day, i tried out the Advanced Configuration tool from TouchXperience (can't post an outside link yet), and tried to bind the swf extension to IE, so i could launch swf files from Total Commander and other external sources. Something went wrong, i tried to unbind it, and it broke all support.

From there, i uninstalled Flash 7, reinstalled it, and set File Explorer to open them in IE again. Every time i try to launch a swf now, IE spazzes out, spams me with error report prompts, and then proceeds to crash to the today screen, closing everything.

Anyone know what might cause that? Or help? If i have to reflash my phone, let me ask this while i'm at it. Is there an unofficial ROM of Windows Mobile 6.5.3 for the Samsung Epix? It's not a problem, but it just gnaws away at me knowing i'm not on the latest version...

[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Hey guys,

So I've recently come across the JMC rom like most of you out there. :p

I know there are a lot of users out there new to the flashing scene and more importantly they are unsure of where to begin despite all the guides out there.

I did however also want to give a quick overview.Of what I've seen so far in in JMC having started on stock Bell firmware and then going to JPK5, then JM6, JMA, and then recently moving on to JMC. Currently I'm using Roto-JMC on a JMA Base,

For most new people, or people afraid or unsure of whether to flash here is a really quick breakdown of what I've seen changed, improved so far since JM6, JMA:

Pros:

-Fastest ROM yet

-Smoother browser, smooth enough infact for me to delete Miren after doing extensive comparisons in performance.

-Smoother drop down bar (has its quirks)

-Great performance in TWUi

-Email app appears to be working flawlessly now

-No more issues with Screen timeout

-No more jagged browsing experience like in Bell Stock firmware

-Gallery app is silky silky smooth even when browsing 2.5 gb of pictures.

-Browser multi-touch, two finger zoom has improved vastly

-Full Bluetooth HID support (compared to Stock Bell Firmware) which means full keyboard/mouse support!

Cons:

-Performance on drop down depends on running tasks (but its 100%+ better than in Stock Bell Firmware)

-Had issues with update, so had to restore defaults which was for the better anyways

-No updated Market App (quick fix)

-Swype still not scaling properly (Lol.. pm me for how to fix that if you must)

-Still no Pinch to zoom in Dolphin HD

Untested/Unknown:

-Batterylife affected?

-DPI issues as others have reported

-Performance improvement with OLFC (for tab) untested yet

Comments:

Having HEAVILY used Stock Bell and JMA, since I use my tab at work.. I will say, the browser performance in this build truly blew my mind. It was so much better than stock. Having compared 2 tabs, one Bell Stock and JMC I am absolutely stunned at the difference when browsing sites like Engadget or Gizmodo. The multi-touch to zoom support is so much better in this build, it feels so smooth and more reactive than before. Its not perfect, not yet... But soon. :)

Samsung devs are really getting there. Really noticeable performance with UI and drop down, I have a feeling in a few more builds it will be almost perfect. :D

In the end, this all made me happy because I love my tab even more now! Hope this helps anyone out there wondering on whether or not to flash.

As for JMC vs JMD.. No real feedback from the community yet on JMD so I'll give JMD a run down after a few days of testing in order to make sure I get a good amount of experience.
[Galaxy Tab General] zombierockstar:
Thanks for your insight! Happy Holidays!
[Galaxy Tab General] caveman999:
Great review! Also, does this firmware fix the multi-touch issues with the dolphin hd browser that plagued earlier European firmwares?
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Give me a brief description of the issue and I'll test this immediately. :D
[Galaxy Tab General] a1jatt:
No. Still no pinch zoom in dolphin.
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Updated above with added information.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] appelflap:
great initiative. Fully agree with your pros and cons. Still think that the browser could be faster though.

Also still waiting on a 2.2.1 update (the jump from 2.2 to 2.2.1 made a great difference for the Galaxy S series)

Hi, can someone please tell me wether JMC includes norwegian swype input or not?

Merry christmas to all btw!
[Galaxy Tab General] grechy:
Same for me, i got a stock update from kies to jj7, dolphin works fine.

The fixed browser slowdown on busy sites is appealing, but im waiting for a ROM with no cons before i bother to upgrade.
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Thanks for your feedback!

I do believe the browser could be faster but there is honestly no smoother alternative at the moment. The browser in JMC is faster than both miren and dolphin by a bit at this point but not faster or smoother than opera but we all know how weird opera rendering really is.

Remember though these are all Dev builds at the moment so we should see some improvement in the next few builds.

As for the avatar hahaha its actually an ipad he's holding like that so its editted to show him holding what the ipad really is!

:)
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Hello!

I'm currently not using swype from JMC if not I'd test this and give you feedback immediatley. I'm currently using swype from a different build since it has the landscape mode fixed and this version only supports EFIGSD languages plus the Asian laungauges.

Maybe someone else who is using stock JMC can give you some feedback.

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
No such thing as no cons. Despite any cons JMC may have the performance increase is astounding when compared to stock.
[Galaxy Tab General] msgfromside3:
Agreed. Jmc is so much better to pass because of dolphine pinch zoom issue for me. There are alternatives I can use for browsers, but not when it comes to perf and stability.
[Galaxy Tab General] kromosto:
an update from me. i was flashed to jm6 no screen timeout issue then flash to roto-jmc no timeout issue at the begging but today it started suddenly. i can fix it by changing timeout duration for several times after device restarts but issue is still there.
[Galaxy Tab General] seven2099:
Haven't had this issue at all actually.

Are you using Spare parts?
[Galaxy Tab General] kromosto:
no dont have spareparts and never had. this is a weird situation for me, as i said jm6 i dont have after upgrade to roto-jmc i dont have the issue but after 3 days of roto-jmc usage it started suddenly while i was looking for a good ebook reader and trying the ones in the market. i think the issue is there in the jmc rom too and waiting for something to trigger it.

Edit: nevermind, just used roto's firmware package and updated to JMC. Not only does it look less garish, it is definitely much smoother so far. Thanks

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErOR22:
Hello good people,

First of all, Merry Christmas,

So I'm currently looking to buy a new phone. My current phone is a i900 Omnia which is great but I really like the HD2 and DHD. I probably won't buy a new phone for a year or two so would like something which will last.

Is there any people here that had/have a HD2 and upgraded to DHD? Was it worth it? The DHD is about $250 more then HD2 here and I'm wondering if I should get it or not. I like the tweak ability of the HD2 but have never used it so I don't know how it feels whereas I tried out DHD and was very impressed. Even if I did get the HD2 I would still use Android and WinMo for GPS, unless there's something as good as iGO8 on Andoid.

Also I read some people have issues recording in 720p, freezing while recording. Is there a workaround with this issue?

I had only a little play with Android so I'm new to all this root etc...

Thank you, have a nice day :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jokies:
Currently, android on HD2 is not so good as DHD, and I'm sure it's not going to, so pick up your choice between winmo or android.

I myself moved from HD2 to DHD, for finger friendly UI and newly developed apps.

Another good thing is android is both dev and user friendly, no more registry tweaks or volidate cleaning! Apps gone as you want it to, also easy to get back from market.

It is not a bad phone but the battery life sux big time. You need to carry spare battery with you.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alchopop:
I take issue with that statement, battery life on my DHD is typically around 20+ hrs. I use my device constantly with no problem about losing power.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naira1:
The battery life is ok for a phone with big display
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErOR22:
Thanks for replies people,

Is the touch screen much different from the HD2, as far as the sensitivity and such? When I tried the DHD I went into the messaging and tested out typing and it was just such a breeze, atm it's always a hustle without a stylus.

I'm not too worried about battery life, I won't be watching movies on the go, maybe just some gaming, web browsing and mp3 playing.

I just want a device that makes my life easier, I read that WinMo on HD2 needs ALOT of tweaks and registry changes to get running how it should be and while I am a computer whiz and love messing around with everything, I think now I just want something that works mint out of the box with great potential if I decide to try other stuff. Also apparently the SuperRAM Android builds on HD2 runs extremely well.

Are there any other good devices with 4.3" screen and 1Ghz CPU? I tried the Galaxy S but didn't like the build quality and typing seemed crap compared to DHD.

Is the DHD what I'm looking for?
