[HTC Inspire 4G] mattbe213:
Not really. If you look at it from a logical standpoint instead of "Hey, this one has more processors, I'll get it", you would see that the Inspire trumps the Atrix in most categories. Yes, the Atrix does have a dual-core processor, a qHD display, and is super-thin, but it runs MotoBlur, which means a few things: Laggy phone, hard to develop with (Due to the locked bootloader issue), and its MotoBlur, so you already know that its gay. And I would say that dual-cores are over-rated. Your not going to see the difference between a single core and a dual-core chipset. Also, NOBODY will be utilizing that technology for a while, so why bother having it if its useless. As for the Inspire, like all HTC devices, its good for developing. Why? Because of no locked bootloader. And HTC is always the best at pushing updates to phones. Plus, HTC Sense UI is a great layer that has been added to the Android platform, which is IMO a great addition. Google (Most likely) has no intentions of utilizing a dual-core chipset anytime soon, or they would have put it in the Nexus S.

As you can see, the Atrix has nothing on the Inspire, so please take a look at the Inspire, and give it a chance. The Inspire is supposed to come out on Feb. 13, so get it at BestBuy Mobile, and if you don't like it, get the Atrix. If you didn't know already, BestBuy will let you trade a new phone for another phone as long as you've had it for less than 30 days.

You said it! I'll hopefully be the first customer to get an Inspire 4G in our area. The store opens at 11 am, so I'll be there at 10:55. :D

[HTC Inspire 4G] TexUs:
I disagree. When in laptop mode, using the *nix partition, a dual core device will be huge.

Vs the Inspire which is the same exact stuff we've got now plus 4G? Who cares?

Considering 3.0 supports it, and was aimed at tablets, the most likely thing is that they WILL bring it to handsets.

Except you admitted it's processing capability, screen, and form factor... The only pluses you could come up with for the Inspire was the HTC branding.
[HTC Inspire 4G] htc fan89:
On telus website it now says coming soon. It could be released by February
[HTC Inspire 4G] FLAC Vest:
Absolutely. My Captivate is bad enough with a 1500mah battery; I couldn't even think of one with a 1200 and a bigger screen.

Hell, I have 2 spare batteries for the captivate to swap to when they die during the day; such is the price of overclocking and heavy usage I suppose.

So can I get apks that I installed from market on my pc if i want to install them on another phone?
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Use adb ;)

How do I use that lol :P do u need root and can u transfer paid apps?
[Wildfire General] Skye Menjou:
My wareznoob sense is tingling.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
if they're installed to /data/app which most market apps are, then i think nope, but you should be rooted as it makes it easier to use adb and do stuff with it, and yeah you can transfer whatever apps are on your phone, whether you paid for them or not is none of my business anyway.

You can also use titanium backup, appmonster or mybackup to backup your apps to sd card, and just copy them to your computer.
[Wildfire General] Astral07:
install exuninstall and make a backup of your apps, then the apks will be on your sdcard so just copy them to the pc, cheers
[Wildfire General] bratski:
I use astro file manager to back up the installed apps, the backed-up apps are stored in your sd card/backup/apps, from there you can copy the apps in your pc.

There is an app you can use, look for appSaver in the market.

[Desire HD General] Eddie1506:
Are you sure the apps are not back when you reboot your phone?
[Desire HD General] dr.m0x:
I'd be pretty surprised if they're persistent.
[Desire HD General] cattleprod:
sorry i can't see how this has worked. unless by some weird chance when trying to get s-off, gain root and what esle you have try to do. has caused you to be able to r/w to the system partition.
[Desire HD General] Yoshi_523:
Ok I assure you it has worked and continues to work. One possible major difference I've just been told supposedly the stock HTC RUU 1.72.405.3 reverts you back to original hboot eng s-on. Me on the other hand I never loaded a stock HTC ROM 1.72.405.3 or an update. I loaded LeeDroiD 1.3 which has in it the base as 1.72.405.3 but also his modifications to that. So never lost clockwork recovery hboot. I can still load ROMs fine, I just lost functionallity from Visionary+ or anything else for that matter on the phone to access System folder R/W access. Using ADB on my PC as described above however did solve this. Unfortunately the other issue is after loading LeeDroid 1.3 it's permanently done something to my phone and even after flashing back to previous stock 1.32ROM the 1click Radio S-Off patch does absolutely nothing. Luckily Vodafone supposedly offers a free SIM unlock and there are also cheap alternatives on ebay.

Yes guys these are all persistant. I've rebooted quite a few times and none of the apps I've deleted have come back. These are the apps I've deleted from the "/system/app" folder and they 4 sure have not come back to annoy me: Facebook (crackbook as I like to say :D), Twitter & Flickr including any widgets of the same name, stock or shares trading apps, default internet browser (replaced it with Dolphin HD), Flashlight (replaced it with moddified HTC one that says "torch" as I'm not a fan of US English), HTC Likes, HTC coin, probably some others I can't remember now.

So anyway go for it just use your clockwork recovery (modified hboot) to do a full backup first as if you remove the wrong system apps it goes in a non working error loop.

I'm only real new to the whole Android thing. Only had the phone 4 bout 2 weeks and never hit up any Unix commands before then. I'm happy to help out if I can though. Just message me and when I'm on next I'll try to help.
[Defy General] scrannel:
A question came up on the us forum for Defy about the different software builds until finally a Moto-mod came in with this. It's intriguing in that apparently the Defy has all band capability, but the software build limits the choice. Here's the quote:

"Each Blur Version for the Defy is all Carrier and Regional Specific like for instance For US T-Mobile Customers its 3.6.19.0 however for UK T-Mobile Users I think the latest version is 2.51 Other parts of europe are using 2.34 without MotoBlur and so on and so fourth, the main difference is Carrier installed apps and the confusing part, from what i've expierenced with the phone, Its the first phone i've ever seen with a software controlled universal radio supporting all bands, however its software tells it which band to use, for instance if you 2.21 and 2.51 UK versions are using UMTS 900/2100 where US's 3.6.190 is using AWS 1700/2100. there are ways if you look to obtain version 2.51.1 however this isn't the place to look on instructions on how to do it because its against the forum rules, is unsupported and with 2.51 if for whatever reason you wanted to downgrade you couldn't unfortunatly."
[Defy General] jellydonut:
WHAT.

Software defined radio?

If this is for real the hackers SHOULD REALLY HAVE A FIELD DAY with this phone.

It's a shame they're too busy with the Samsungs and HTCs of the world.. :p
[Defy General] nupi:
There's quite a difference between true software defined radio (most radios these days are sort of there, as they are most commonly some embedded chip with custom firmware but nothing like a Linux kernel) and being able to switch frequencies to be used :D
[Defy General] scrannel:
I'm not an expert, but the basic thrust of this was that all Defy phones are identical and capable of all frequencies, but the firmware defines which can be used. Therefore it seems -- to this novice mind -- that change the firmware change the phone.

The other, related issue is the frustration of some Euro phone owners who really know nothing about differences in 3G frequencies. buy a phone and presume they can use them in the US (as one can with an iPhone). Those of us who prowl these forums are basically smart enough to know that before you buy a phone we have to be sure we can actually use it -- but 90% of buyers buy a phone

presuming

they can.
[Defy General] cmstlist:
Okay well can someone on the forum test this out? You'd need the ability to try and access both sets of frequencies.

Example: You're in Australia and you have a Defy from Telstra which you've also unlocked. Your stock firmware supports 850/AWS/2100. You should be able to get an 850 MHz signal from Telstra's NextG network. Now, if you put in an Optus SIM and visit an area with 900 MHz 3G coverage but not 2100, you'll find the phone drops to EDGE or gets no signal.

So at this point, take a nandroid backup, and flash a 900/2100 firmware or replace the radio files with ones from such a firmware. Now repeat the same test... does it successfully register on Optus at 900 MHz?
[Defy General] KMur:
Radio issues...

Strictly on the band issue, I don't think they are that apart. A good radio would be able to handle it without being full SDR.

I agree partly on the point that these radios are somehow SDR for they do change the frequencie ranges by changing firmware.

A full SDR would be able to change even to CDMA or something else, not only the band!

If you want to challenge someone for doing something about it, ask for a full tri-band version of the Defy radio! (That I would ask for too!) ;)

I intend to use my Defy originally 850/1900 over a 2100 network. :rolleyes:

Well that's is my humble guess. :cool:
[Defy General] scrannel:
Interesting, as if you go into the INFO menu and select "set preferred network type" one choice (which it will not allow) is CDMA. But it's there.
[Defy General] cmstlist:
Which version of the Defy is UMTS 850/1900? I thought there was only 850/1700/2100 and 900/2100.

Also, pretty much all Androids have CDMA as a listed option, not because they're compatible, but because it's a testing menu that was designed to be applicable to a wide variety of phones.

[Galaxy Tab General] Aspi914:
Hey all,

As a summary of my thread regarding firmware upgrade failure I just thought I would update you with the following re: KIES 2.0

Background is;

1. Brought a Telstra G-Tab (Unlocked) late December.

2. Downloaded KIES 2.0 (no problems there)

3. KIES constantly told me there is a firmware upgrade from PDA:JJ3 / Phone JJ3 / CSC:JJ4 [Current Firmware] to PDA:JJ4 / Phone:JJ4 / csc JJ5. Describes the Firmware Version as 11.01.04.04

4. Firmware downloads and "seems" to install correctly.

5. G-Tab seems to responds and reboots no problem as anticipated

6. When you disconnect/reconnect devices as suggested, the firmware has not installed (i.e. Tab is still at PDA:JJ3 / Phone JJ3 / CSC:JJ4).

7. When you plug it back into KIES 2.0 it again advises that a firmware update is available.

To try and resolve this I went to my office (XP computer instad of win 7) and downloaded KIES 1.53 during my lunch break.

Result was I got a message back after syncing my G-Tab and selecting install new firmare which was;

"Model Name: GT-P1000T

Current Version: PDA:JJ3 / PHONE:JJ3 / CSC:JJ4

This devices version cannot be updated."

So - I am assuming that there must be a flaw in KIES 2.0 if (a) it suggests there is a firmware update, (b) downloads that update but (c) does not install the update on the device while (d) KIES 1.53 says there is no upgrade. :rolleyes:

I still have my service request with Samsung so will report on what the outcome of that is (if they corroborate or not)...
[Galaxy Tab General] jamiemac1977:
Still stuck on JJ3 (Tesco UK Stock FW) here, no matter what PC, or what Kies version i use i cannot get any of the recent updates officially and have not been able since 02/11/2010 (1 day after release).

Hi, First time i use KIES since I bought my Dutch SGT SIMlockfree. All I did was to root the device (unrevoked3) to access all app markets if need be.

SGT connected fine to KIES 2.0.

Firmware information: PDA:JJ7/PHONE:JK5/CSC:JK2

BUT "This version of the device cannot be upgraded"

my question: am i really up to date or not ?

or do i need to unroot the device to get full access to update again as i have read of newer european firmware versions available
[Galaxy Tab General] GiggleGut:
I have US AT&T SGT. I installed Kies 2.0 and it installed properly. When I connected the My SGT to Kies, it was stuck on "Connecting Device". I waited patiently for about an hour without success.

I fiddled around the settings.

Settings>>Wireless and network>>USB Settings>> and selected KIES (FIRMWARE UPDATE)

I reconnected my SGT to Kies and it connected right away saying the device is not supported. :(

Anyone else having the same problem?
[Galaxy Tab General] codington:
Kies 2.0 installs and runs fine on Win 7 (32). It recognizes the GT-P1000 right away. However, my take is that Kies does not fully support the tab - you can only manage music, photos, videos, and podcasts. It will recognize your tab firmware version, but will not try to update. Maybe this is because I am running a rooted version of JME. However, I would still only trust the version of Kies that supports GT (1.5.3)- but upgrading to Kies 2.0 will remove the previous version.

This version does seem to be better at managing music, pics, and videos (ala iTunes). The listing of Samsung Apps are only for BADA 1.0 - not android.

So don't upgrade to 2.0 if you need it to fully support the GT.
[Galaxy Tab General] andre_eugene:

Make sure GT drivers installed and it works.
