[Vibrant General] shoerhino:
Possible explanation

I've received envelopes like that to. Did the sender by chance send it using the letter rate or the package rate? Part of the problem could be that if you send a thin part in a regular envelop, anything over 1/4 inch think can be caught in the letter class machines and do damage. When that happened to me, someone was sending me something that was slightly over 1/4 think and I received the envelope with the side slit and nothing in it.

If this was sent letter class, if might have been jammed in a machine and they took your camera out of the damaged enevelope so it could proceed.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] philbertz:
As I understand it, the first way to run Android on the HTC HD2, was to install it in a special way (described in one of the sticky posts on this forum) on an SD card, and run 2 programs while the phone is booted in Windows Mobile.

NAND Android means that Android is actually installed as the main and only OS in the memory of the phone. That means that Windows Mobile has been completely replaced by Android.

Myself, I am only starting to look into Android, so I am going to do the SD based version first, and check out if it has everything I need (most prominently Microsoft Exchange Server integration of the same quality as WinMo has it).

If it does, then I'm going to switch to NAND android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] roloracer:
You're posting questions that make no sense, nand android and android are the same thing, nand, sd, ram android builds are different .If you read up on android and the difference on builds you will know what it is, and NAND is internal device

I have done the hspl

I have done this magldr something like that and used the flasher

And then ran something to where its not sd card but in my phone nana or something like that.

When my phone boots it dark forces or something.

Its runs smooth, fast I can't tell its supposed to be a windows phone.

[Nexus S Accessories] Phantom1275:
Hi all,

Waiting eagerly for my Nexus S (hope I'll receive it next week), I have started looking for cases, sleeves, pouches and so on for it.

I have had a I8000 Omnia2 which had a sleeve (or pouch) that was perfect for me. It was a stock one that came with the cell phone, and it had a hole exactly over the speaker position. It's this one here, but it has no picture of the back, where the hole is placed.

I see that Nexus S doesn't have an original case or sleeve by Samsung. Is there any for sale that also has some kind of hole over the speaker position in Nexus S, so that I can use it without muffling its sound?

Skype bought QIK, does that mean we'll get skype with video chat soon!?!!? If so, that would be AWESOME!
[EVO 4G General] xlGmanlx:
yeah, was announced a couple of days ago. however skype already does video chat and has an app for verizon for new LTE phones, so i don't know what the hold up is
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
or do we lose video chat with qik and skype locks it down to one carrier?
[EVO 4G General] xlGmanlx:
probably the case, skype blocked fring from using their protocol(?) earlier when the evo first came out as that was how fring was touting video chat
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I hope not. There are rumors that Facebook will be integrating Skype as it's video chat solution; that'd pretty much guarantee Skype's ubiquity as the video calling standard.

It seems like there are lots of mentions of the new Verizon Droid Bionic having Skype video chatting but there's no mention of the AT&T Atrix having it. Seeing as how both are Moto's, this is not a good sign. The iPhone 4 on AT&T already has Skype video calling so this may be another Verizon Android exclusive. We'll see though.

[About XDA developers] mknewman:
We have a problem. There is a thread in the HD2 Android NAND Developers section that is over 500 pages long! It's awful, trying to find anything in it is nearly impossible.

Please, if it is at all possible, enable threading in the forums, ie, if someone replys to the OP it will be 2nd level, and then all the replys to the original messages will go under there. I know it's a stretch, but even using search on these long threads is horrible, 25 pages of responses sometimes. As it is you can't tell what message a response is to unless they quote the original, which makes the mess even worse, nested responses inside 1 line replies, most of which are "do a search for it"!

I realize this may not be a capability in the forum software you are using but if it is please at least consider it.

You can enable this in the User CP -> Edit Options. Under the heading : "Thread Display Mode".

This was (might still be) buggy in the new XDA 2010 theme(s). So you might need to swap back to XDA Classic theme for full effect.

[EVO 4G General] danman132x:
Don't get me wrong, I love my Evo, but seeing all these new Android phones just revealed makes it feel like the Evo is getting quickly outdated. The specs on all these new phones seem so much better than the Evo. Kind of sucks no longer being one of the best Android phones with the biggest screen. Nexus S, Droid Bionic, whatever other new phones there are, all with better specs than the Evo now... :(
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
That's technology for you.
[EVO 4G General] secondskin:
Smartphones now are what computers used to be in terms of getting outdated.

Technically speaking computers are still outdated by time they come out or 6 months after but for people like me the improvements aren't enough to make want to switch. Personally I'm happy to upgrade my computer every three years.

However, I remember when the advancements in computers was such that I felt the way you do now about the Evo.

But look at it this way. Phones have a long way to go before we'll probably be happy to keep what we have for a few years. Plus upgrading phones is cheaper than computers or most computers anyway.

The Evo still has and probably will maintain a strong fan base and development community for a while so don't worry.
[EVO 4G General] verse187:
Yup New technology comes out every 6 months
[EVO 4G General] greyopaque:
That's how it will always be. Actually though, I was really excited that they're stepping up so quickly. It will make it harder for Apple to keep up, which leads to more high quality development for Android.
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
evo was dated the day it was released lol sad
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
So go get the thunderbolt and have fun for the next 20 months...
[EVO 4G General] JSZESZE:
Please explain what feature or features are missing from the Evo! Im not sure what more could be asked from a smart phone. Most of the new phones coming out just have sales pitch stats. Just like the HDMI out is on the Evo. I know alot of people with the Evo and not a single one has or ever will use the feature.

Just my 2 cents.

P.S. Android will always be pushed to have higher specs to improve performance when all that is needed would be Hardware acceleration.

Jason
[EVO 4G General] overclockxp:
There are two types of phones, experimental and obsolete.
[EVO 4G General] TorxT3D:
Just remember what phone started all this.

give the evo some credit for effing sakes, sheesh

i can whip out my evo in public and i still get people questioning me.. sure, us enthusiasts think the phone is outdated but theres millions of people that would be in awe of such a pwerful big screen phone the evo is.

but thats technology. once they see we're willing to give up dollars for a 6month upgrade, then the manufacturers and cell providers will start dishing them out.

that time is now.. and the mobile market will now be much more competitive and will bring on more and better technology so we can CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
technically the evo is outdated. it's beyond 6 months old now. trust me as im already looking into my next phone.
[EVO 4G General] kpoz:
The HTC Thunderbolt won't be released until the end of March, and it's only improvements over the EVO are an SLCD screen and a marginally faster processor. Considering the EVO will be 9 months old in March, I'm not too upset.

I was upset, however, when I purchased the Hero in Oct. 2009 and a month later the original Droid was released. For comparison proposes, the Hero was 9 months old when the EVO was released and the EVO was a big step up from the Hero, whereas the Thunderbolt is only a marginal improvement.

Therefore, you shouldn't be so down and out about these upcoming phones. Most won't be released until the summer, anyway.
[EVO 4G General] danman132x:
Well said. And with the poster earlier, I agree it looks like smart phones are following in the steps of computers. Technology comes out so fast for them it's unbelievable, but I will be plenty happy with my Evo for a time to come. It's plenty fast for me. Same with my Laptop, about 2 years old now, but still works great, and why get rid of something that has no problems. It's just human desire to have the latest and greatest, but I'll live with it now. I got my Evo in November, plenty of time after it came out, and it is a HUGE step up from my Hero. It will have the power to do what I want with it, plus experimenting with it and always updating ROM's etc keeps it plenty fresh for me.
[EVO 4G General] Zabalba:

[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
Technology moves fast and I generally keep pace with it. Thats the main reason I said I know im not going to have this evo much longer. If I have to switch carriers so be it.
[EVO 4G General] AbsolutZeroGI:
Technology will always outdate itself after a little bit, but in terms of the new specs coming out, they aren't as rEVOlutionary (I love that little pun there) as the Evo/Incredible release of last June. Before those phones, people only dreamed of Nexus 1-style phones. Then the Evo and the Incredible came out and blew the market away. The Evo especially. Huge screen, 1Ghz processor, ffc, kickstand, a good amount of ram. We're going to get Gingerbread for sure.

So when you look at it, the phones coming out aren't as much better than the Evo as the Evo was to it's competition last June. I mean there were 512Mhz phones and THAT was the biggest phone. The Evo is twice that. The phones coming out now aren't twice the Evo.

Relax, you're phone is still high end and it'll be a long time before the Evo will be considered "mid range". That's why I bought one in January, because I know I'll still have it next January (unless something ridiculous happens, like I get rich and can afford every phone on Sprint).
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
Yea but how revolutionary it was in June of last year doesnt really mean much to a gadget freak like myself.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
The EVO came out months after the first 1 GHz phones (HD2, N1, Incredible, etc.).

Re: these new phone:

A single Cortex A9 core is about 25% faster than an A8, now add a second core. Then add the fact that the GPU is somewhere around 4x better. Then add 2x the RAM. Then add 35% more pixels on the display. Than add 16x more internal storage. Then add 25% more battery. That's what the Atrix is compared to the EVO. It's indisputably next gen and gaps it by a ton.
[EVO 4G General] pixelpop:
Actually, the term "outdated" is fairly ambiguous. That could mean any improvement from one set of specs to the next. In the golden age of PC's (1985-2005ish), the adage was that technology (speed, processing power, memory, etc.) would double every 18 months. That pace has slowed somewhat, with advancements being made in increments rather than leaps. Rather than pure technical improvements, deveopment is concentrated more on functions (networking, wireless connectivity, video streaming, etc.).

I would say the smartphone is probably about where PC's were in 1990. We will see incremental improvements from model to model (hence, the "outdated" moniker). But I think as a rule of thumb, we can apply the 18-month rule to smartphones the way we used to with PC's.
[EVO 4G General] ghodzilla5150:
Chasing after the next great phone after phone after phone can be quite expensive. I have had my EVO since day 1 and for me it's still the best phone out there. With the development community the EVO has, I will be leaving no time soon. What exactly can these other phones do that the EVO can't. I can Text, Make Calls, Check E-Mails, Play Some Angry Birds , Watch Video's, Listen to Music, Play SNES Games, Surf the Net, Use EVO as a Tethering Device etc.etc. on my EVO. That's all I care about. Can these other phones do more than this? Also my EVO is plenty fast using MYN's Warm 2.2.
[EVO 4G General] snowboarda42:
I'm going to wait until my upgrade discount to get a new one, that way the differences aren't marginal but it's like a huge new improvement. Kind of like when you go from a non-smart phone to a smart phone.
[EVO 4G General] Eat it iPhone:
Considering the complete specs I still think the evo is in the high end of whats available now. The nesuxs s for example doesn't have hdmi or an SD slot.

Considering that the evo came out in June 2010 and that there still isn't an Android phone that offers everything it does id say that's a good thing.

Until dual core phones come out the evo isn't out dated imo
[EVO 4G General] alex2792:
Give it time, I guarantee you that Sprint will have a dual core phone this summer(just in time for the premier upgrade). They're not stupid(well, they used to be before Hesse took over) and know that a flagship device is a MUST in order to lure subscribers. It's not like the Droid Bionic or the Atrix are launching tomorrow anyhow.

and we will get it.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I work for tmobile for 3 years good luck with that. G2 has the ****tiest touchscreen ever it feels like the ones that use a stylus. And T-slowbile will most likely be bought by someone in the next few years I wouldn't be surprised lol.
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
thought about jumping to TM they are packing some MAJOR phones
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
FOOLERY. Tmobile is owned by Deutsche Telecom, a company with a hell of a lot more capital than Sprint. Plus tmobile doesnt lose as much money and actually gains customers. And lets not gloat like our phones didnt have a huge issue with the screen coming aloose for quite a while.

thats funny about the G2 my buddy has one the touch screen is great really responsive .. TM speeds he gets better 3g speeds than i do and he gets "4g" signal while i can't

Although I will admit when I activate g2's for people I ran a benchmark a few times and that phone gets a stock 1500 on quads while my evo gets like 1409 overclocked.*scratches head* lol
[EVO 4G General] jxr94:
When sprint releases the upgraded EVO (HTC EVO Inferno 4G? i'm assuming since they seem to be sticking with the Evo branding) if they release it, it will be the best again, just like the Evo was when it first came out. Hopefully, with a same year processor lol.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
Sprint blows, no new more powerful phones.
[EVO 4G General] xHausx:
That's the best explanation for it I've ever heard.

Technology advances exponentially so by the time you get a phone like ours refined and functioning at it's potential it is already outdated.
[EVO 4G General] jdh10475:
To OP how do you figure? Current phones launching are still using similar hardware that the evo is using also how many 4g phones are currently out.
[EVO 4G General] xlGmanlx:
i don't because i have used the crap out of it since july, when the time is right, i will updgrade to one of these beasts being intro'd and do the same. there will always be something coming out tomorrow that is better, might as well enjoy what you got now
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
Honestly, I don't really see how any of these new phones are that much better than the EVO. If anything, they are finally catching up and maybe takng one step above the EVO. Dual core? So what. At this point it's nothing but a marketing gimmick. Until I see real world results I'm not convinced thet they are that much better. And I'm not talking about some useless benchmark scores, I'm talking about real world use.

I also don't get why EVO users are so bent out of shape because Sprint didn't announce anything at CES. Unless you bought your EVO off contract, you don't get an upgrade until at least June anyway. So I will be looking forward to announcments from Sprint in the next few months instead of getting pissed off because they didn't announce anything today.

Another thing to think about.... Anyone that gets one of these new phones on Verizon will be stuck with it for 20 months. If you got an EVO in the first few months, you will be able to get 2 upgrades before they even get one.

EDIT: Yet another genius customer service move by Verizon:

http://www.androidcentral.com/verizon-cut-return-policy-14-days-effective-jan-16th
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Verizon to cut return policy to 14 days effective Jan 16th

http://www.androidcentral.com/verizon-cut-return-policy-14-days-effective-jan-16th

All I have to say is this:

I wouldn't go with Verizon for anything.

They are proving that customer service is irrelevant to them.

The sick part?

People WANT to be treated like this.

After all these changes, simply because of the phone lineup and this BS they have convinced everyone of [which is that their network is excessively superior], I bet you that their customer count increases.

And honestly, that's pretty pathetic.

I would rather wait til Spring/Summer and get Sprint's new phone lineup than get it a few months early and submit myself to being treated the way that Verizon seems to feel they have the right to treat customers.

Honestly, more than ever, **** you Verizon.
