Hey ahmadmr,

Thanx for your reply...I am not very confident of ordering a phone from somewhere else..especially from another country..there is a similar website here in India..I contacted them and they asked me to wait for a couple of days..so lets see, but thanx again..if it is available in the Middle East (Dubai) I can ask a friend to get it too...
[Omnia 7 General] robnewton1:
t mobile germany is probably your best bet. ive seen a number of posts saying the phone is unlocked & i think its the 16Gb version too.
[Omnia 7 General] circleofomega:
Oh ok...Germany..yea...makes sense...Will surely try now...a couple of friends keep going there...
[Desire General] themaddoc:
I currently am using the stock desire music app. I have not come across anything as good as the iphone/ipod app yet.

Just wanted your views and recommendations on the music apps you guys use?
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Definately, indisputably PowerAMP... no more words needed
[Desire General] cr1960:
+1.

has built in eq, grabs album art automatically....

the best music player I've used.

worth the couple of bucks for the full version, but you can download a trial version for free.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
folder based playlist (though u dont need to create and save; just play or shuffle all contents) + albumarts auto-download + prof equalizer with preamp + scrobbling + lyrics thanks to a separate plugin, + lock screen widget + user friendliness + aesthetic + etc + etc .. this is the only app I hv paid for, it is worth
[Desire General] nickownzya:
I'm using MIUI music player. PowerAMP isn't free and I dislike the UI, it's too overloaded.

Only tested it like 15 mins though.
[Desire General] tranquillo83:
last.fm

hmm im a last.fm addic! for all of you who are last.fm friends i suggest the last.fm app ;) unfortunately they disabled the live stream function for all versions > 1.5.6 ;) so the new version sucks big-time :P if you are having trouble finding the 1.5.6 version and you want to try it - just let me know and ill send it to you!

tran
[Desire General] KapteinKing:
Winamp ftw. we all used it in our younger years, and im lovin' it!

And also, I think it's a good player!:)
[Desire General] Jalalben:
I use "MortPlayer Music". Simple but efficient.
[Desire General] tudork:
Mixzing
[Desire General] -Buggi-:
I use two different players, for different purposes.

I use PowerAMP for music, that works really well. I love the auto-album art feature, and that it can play from selected folders.

I use Winamp for Audio books, witch I listen to allot.

The reason I use two different players, is so that I don´t have to interrupt where I came to, in the audio book, if I want to play a piece of music :)

Oh, btw Winamp works great to, maybe a little boring interface, but it works like a charm :)
[Desire General] flashsam:
I use astro player nova which is very customizable and also remembers where you are in each track/playlist which makes it great for long files.
[Desire General] marko hacker:
Tunein radio;)
[Desire General] cmdrfire:
I've been using cubeplayer (or 3 or whatever it's called) for a little while now, but in text mode rather than in that cube format, and have been getting rather dissatisfied with it. It's not bad, but now I'm loading more music it's getting a bit too simplistic.

Think I'll look at PowerAmp, lots of people on this thread seem to like it.
[Desire General] GuestK00121:
I use Poweramp for the equalizer, pays off when you use a 2.1 PC speaker or airwalk headphones ... however when transmitting tunes via Bluetooth to my brothers car I use the stock version, seems to work better :-)
[Desire General] pasteyface:
Music App

I've just started using Zimly after trying Cubed, Mixzing, Honeycomb and others and I'm impressed. Particularly like the lockscreen controls and the layout where you can swipe to change tracks and views. Seem to be actively developing the app as it's been updated a couple of times since I've installed it.
[Desire General] Evil_Cid:
I use the stock one.....
[Desire General] iWeapon:
I see a lot of people, use PowerAMP. I've been using doubleTwist because of it's fancy AirSync, where you can sync your music wirelessly. Can someone tell me if PowerAMP does this or not?
[Desire General] Maart84:
Using SubSonic to stream all of my 100Gb music from my computer directly to my phone!

It has transcoding options so if i want to play big music files (eg wav/flac) it transcodes it to whatever you want (eg 128kbps mp3).

You can even set some sort of buffer where it actually downloads music onto your phone for offline listening.
[Desire General] Pl4ub:
Winamp
[Desire General] nokli:
Music PlayerPro

I use Music PlayerPro, I like the GUI.

Trouble is it doesn't separate individual artist albums if searching via genre so a hassle if you have a lot of music.

I found, of the music apps I trialed, only Mixzing works as I'd like i.e. Genre-Artist-Album. Shame its GUI is ugly though.
[Desire General] matt2052:
I am currently using the 'winamp' music player anxious find it to be a good simple app and very user friendly. What are anyone else opinion on this music player? Thanks.
[Desire General] paulruk:
I use the stock music player, tried some others but saw nothing the htc doesnt do well enough.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
When I heard/read winamp for android was released first i said "Yess! finally!" as it was/is the perfect music app ever since on my pc & laptop all the times. But the android winamp app is a total disappointment for me, imo. It is far away from its desktop version; no equalizer, no folder based playlist, no "add queue in winamp" option, and so on... PowerAMP is closer to desktop winamp than winamps itself, imho.
[Desire General] ukanth:
I use doubleTwist with DSPmanager(rooted) . Its very cool
[Desire General] spile:
Play FLAC?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
None, as it's a phone not an iPod
[Desire General] rniedzia:
I use PowerAMP. Plays FLAC, has nice GUI and can arrange playlists depending on folders and not tags. And i get used to it.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
PowerAMP has, too, ability to arrange and play music per tags, otherwise it would be silly for a such advanced app.
[Desire General] fisha21:
Always here to keep our feet on the ground, eh?

Have tried most of the players on the Market, and ended up sticking with PowerAmp.
[Desire General] nokli:
Sorry Eddy but you could also say

- you shouldn't check your emails on your phone since it not a computer

- Take photos using your phone since its not a dedicated camera

- play games on your phone coz its not a psp or Nintendo DS

The whole point of a smart phones is convergence so you need to carry less devices with you. Sure the functionality may not be as good as separate devices sometimes but the convenience is worth it in my opinion.

Since I got my Desire I no longer need to carry my mp3 player around in my pocket.
[Desire General] spile:
Also the IPod doesn't play FLAC either :-)
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Other than emails I don't do any of those either - a Smartphone for me is a phone, a communications tool, which is used to keep me in touch with people. This includes Email, calls, SMS, comms apps, etc

This is obviously just my opinion
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z0mg.jer1Cho:
Hey guys, got a pro with my Desire (Pays gMIUI ROM):

Mass Storage worked till some days before but one day, from 1 second to another it stopped working. Everytime i plug my Desire into a PC it will charge battery only.

What i did so far:

- updated my kernel to the newest coutts-kernel version

- updated radio to 5.14.05.17

- wiped phone

- tried with the naked custom-rom without resoring my settings

- unchecked and checked "Ask me when connect"

- reinstalled drivers on win xp ( mass storage isnt working under linux either)

- tried 3 different PCs/Laptops

- tried 3 different cabels

- formatted sd-card

Maybe a broken USB-pin?

hoping 4 help

cheers
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
You don't have the latest couts kernel. This problem is fixed in the latest update. Update your kernel and the problem is solved.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z0mg.jer1Cho:
Oh thx BIG TIME!!!!!

haven't seen the update :/

cheers mate
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Randomly had this occur today using eMIUI 0.01.07 and when I plug in my unit I get no options to select 'Charge' or 'USB Mass Storage' - it just charges automatically. Using the Coutts kernel in my signature

Which kernel fixes this?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Just redownload the kernel in your sig ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Yeah, this is a different one and it works :D
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yasir_jan87:
Just wanted to get sense of the keyboards everyone was using with the dell streak.

I used the better keyboard with an iPhone skin on it maybe I will post a pic later.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_paranoid_android:
I use smart keyboard and I like it alot, however the only other one I have used is the stock 2.2 keyboard which I believe is swype I did not care for it.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Troute:
Better Keyboard with the Black Light skin, because I bought it for another device and am used to it / like it.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treylemkn:
I agree. By far the best keyboard out there. My beef with most android keyboards is that the space bar is so small. You can hide the comma and period on this keyboard and make the spacebar HUGE!

There are also several skins for this that come with it. HTC, iPhone, etc... Tons of other settings to make it more customized too.

I also see where someone just ported the droid x keyboard. I used that one on my captivate for a while and really liked it too.

But smart keyboard pro hands down is the best.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
I'm highly addicted to swype.. I can't live without it.

BTW the streak is my first device in a really long time that doesn't have a physical qwerty keyboard and swype has helped me get over that!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yasir_jan87:
Since a lot of people here said smart keyboard I downloaded it. Its pretty good I like it.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mellojoe:
I'm using Swype and I love it. So stinkin' fast. It is one handed type, not two-handed, but as the dadgum thing is so big, I only have one hand free to type with! :)

I might try out some of the others, but I've just enjoyed Swype that I haven't bothered.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borijess:
Swype

Sent from the Iphone Killer
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charactervsself:
I used every major keyboard on the market (demo versions) and came back to stock 2.3 keyboard because I didn't find anything impressive about any of them. Smart Keyboard is the closest thing to a keyboard worth paying for, and even then it's just for the adjustable key height and a couple more layout preferences than the default keyboard.

I completely disagree with people who say Swype on the Streak is fast. MAYBE in portrait, but I still don't see how you can hold this thing and type on it with only 1 hand free. In landscape I would have to slide my finger back and forth four times across the width of this huge screen to type a five letter word like "world". I guarantee I can type faster with stock keyboard than anyone with Swype. Granted I went up to 240 with LCD Density so that the keys are more spaced out, which is why I would say Smart Keyboard is the best, just don't care to pay for it.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yasir_jan87:
Hey I just noticed u can increase the hieght of the keyboard with the smart keyboard best $3 I spent lol
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashDebug:
i use the standard swype keyboard that comes with the froyo build. i think that after some tinkering you get darn fast at it, of course you must have a properly sized hand in order to hold it comfortably in portrait, but alas, I am just lucky enough
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lsweeting:
I'm currently using thumb keyboard which is designed to make typing easier on tablets in landscape, also has a very nice portrait option which offsets half of the keyboard (it's hard to explain, there's screen shots on the market). You can adjust the height, change skins, it gets more customisable with each update which I like!

Someone on modaco is also working on a clone if the 1.6 keyboard which is coming along nicely but has a few bugs to sort out before it's perfect
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmotytn:
+1 on the Thumb Keyboard...I am finally able to type on a touchscreen in portrait mode with my gorilla hands...

But, I got one o dem ipad stylus thingies and have been having fun with it and the Swype keyboard...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krad:
Smart keyboard here
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Streakr:
I have the thumb keyboard which is really good but I'm in love with swype.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsjourney:
I haven't tries Smart Keyboard yet, but so far the best I have used is SwiftKey. Has anyone else tried it?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subvecto:
Smart keyboard for me as well.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subvecto:
I like swype as well but swapping language in between and available dictionaries even with beta release is very limited currently.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenoo:
Hi everyone

I first dismissed this error as another manifestation of the N1's touch screen drawbacks; but since I owned the Nexus S, the same error reappears, and it’s driving me nuts:

All signs point to the fault being caused by the Gingerbread keyboard. This is how you reproduce it:

1) Use more than one keyboard layout / input language

2) Type anything, switch to the first symbols keyboard

3) Hit any key from the symbols keyboard, and afterwards, directly the space bar

4) The keyboard switches back to letter mode, all good up to now

5) Hit the symbols button again

6) The input language automagically changes to the adjacent one, the keyboard switches back to ABC mode

Suffice to say, this is quite an annoyance. There’s a workaround, though: this doesn’t happen if you hit the ABC key before hitting space, but that’s not how I expect my keyboard to work.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this issue, and if yes, does anyone know how to fix this? Unfortunately, extensive research throughout last week didn’t bring back any usable results.

Thanks for your help!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuvidroid:
Hey!

this happens also on my Nexus S...really disappointing :((

I played around in the Keyboard settings but couldn't find a way to fix this (unless you remove multiple languages....but that's not the point :S).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] arsc1:
I was wondering if theres some tipe of fix to this frezee problem that i have,its not as bad as it sounds,in fact it only happens if i sit arround n play with the phone wile chargin for more than 20 minutes!!!ive been using this NAND Android Rom as my dayly OS and it works just fine!!!I've notice some people have the same problem with custom windows 6.5 Roms but its also happening with NAND!!is it something abouth the devise and not the Roms?Is there anything that would help?Thanks to everybody!!!:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrkrizzle:
Im also having this same issue on NAND for only 1 one my phones ( I have two hd2's). Wondering of it just randomly effects certain devices.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] arsc1:
it may be! let me ask u a question..whats the radio on the one that its not having the problem? because i also have 2 phones n the one that is doing it has 2.15.50,the otherone its working fine and the radio is 2.14.50!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrkrizzle:
both are running 2.14
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
I know this is not something we can do, but hoping a dev will see this and answer, but now that we can change the size of the screen from 240 to 220 or 180, thats great, but can the preset size of the space it keeps be changed to? For example:

You have 4 icons or more, if you press and hold to move the icons there is a size box in green/yellow border that as you move the icon moves, but now the box is bigger then the icon, if we could make it smaller, then we would be able to put more icons on the screen.

Anyone else feel the same way?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kam333:
not sure if this is exactly what you want, but launcher pro allows you to change how many icons you can fit horizontally or vertically

also take a look at Multi icon widget:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/multicon-widget/com.h9kdroid.multicon
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
Actually yes thats what I was talking about, but can it be done without the need of a 3rd party app? And thanks for pointing me to this app.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fruchtfliege:
this mod would be awesome for htc sense. it's one reason why i changed from sense to gingerbread (with go launcher)...
[Defy General] Filipitripi:
I have a big problem :S

After test the gummyrom, i reflashed my phone with 2.34 .sbf and DONT RESTART :O, its on boot loop, i wipe data and nothing....

I try 2.2 china sbf and sme......HELP PLZ
[Defy General] wilbur-force:
can you get into recovery ? did you do a nandroid backup ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] criszz:
excelent news. downloading now. can u consider roatating sense in future versions ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BobaFeTT_NL:
Congrats Andrew, looks promising. I'm still on mdeejay's 1.9 CM7 NAND with S10.1 kernel, and I experience extensive powerdrain - even a constant 54mA when in flight mode.

Could you tell me how your power consumption is? I prefer Desire HD over Gingerbread CM7 but if the powerdrain is the same (as you are using MDJ S10.1 kernel as well) I won't bother flashing (yet...).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] patanello:
Just what i was waiting for! a DHD stock rom with ext4! tryin' right now!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] victorfungcy:
does the ext4 have to be behind the fat32?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
Current widget shows 4mA in standby with 3G network. For me battery dropped only 4% overnight. But results my vary.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
yes. First partition should be FAT32, EXT4 should be second
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hamdir:
nice this is should be the fastest version!

now all we need is one more version based on gauner squashed v0.2 (only app and framework squashed) with a2sd+ :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] overshadowss:
any screen shots :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] BobaFeTT_NL:
Wow, that´s a lot better than the 28% I lost from 2.20 A.M. until 10:30 A.M this morning.

Any special installation instructions? Should I do a task29 first or can I just flash your version over mdeejay's? And do I get to keep my apps then? (I am using an ext4 partition on my SD card).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] swordfish2009:
only 4% in night .. are you kidding :eek:

will give it a try..

thanks mate..

Is there ZIP version available? to flash by CWM?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
You can flash over, and I recommend format your ext4 partition. Anyway, settings from Gingerbread are not compatible with Desire HD
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
The same result I had with gauner1986 original version. Battery usage may depend on network coverage.

It is not available to flash via CWM, because it needs bigger /system partition
[HD2 Android NAND Development] paalkr:
I like the description and idea of this ROM. Going to try it out in the afternoon after work. I guess that USB storage also will function properly with this approach to "data on SD", and that would be a huge advantage.

If the feedback from user are positive I hope that other chefs will follow you, and use the same method for storing user data on SD.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
USB storage works excellent for me, but I need more test time to be sure it is not causing any corruption.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] criszz:
i have very big lag on resume (unlock)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
Do you have wi-fi enabled or disabled?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] rafpigna:
you did it first. still testing mine

congratz :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hamdir:
andrewf403, i know data2sd should be faster, but at the mercy of the sd card

how hard is it to make a version with a2sd+ based on gauner v0.2 which has less squash and 150MB free?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] criszz:
all connection including data are disabled. per total system is fast after of couple reboots but very big lag on resume , 5-6 sec.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] FuL_75:
Very nice build.

Unfortunately I'm experiencing a huge battery drain in comparison with other HD releases with almost all synchronizations active and the 60mA issue, I'm using no taskillers nor setCPU.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bronx:
ok... decided to give it one more try. :rolleyes: so far everything seem to be back to normal. once again:

I DO NOT RECOMMEND RESTORING BACKUP TITANIUM BACKUP ON THIS ROM (unless backup is made on this very rom).

the other thing is, that You have to give it some time after booting up. as soon as it settle down it's bearable.. ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] andrewf403:
Yeah. I forgot to put back stock wallpapers. They were removed in squashfsed version to save space. Now, as no need to save space, I simply forgot about them. I will put it back in next release.

For now you can set custom wallpapers with "Gallery" option.

If FS has corrupted it is better to format it before restoring.

Can't say about BT, but to change wifi mac you can use this method http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10222080&postcount=425

I'm looking how to make auto mac generation work, as advertised in newer kernels.

There is a general rule not to use data from different rom on another one. Never know will it or not cause problems.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] CR5N:
edit: above method works just fine :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] DutchDanny:
I use titanium backup for a long time now... never let me down.. not even when going to ext4 rom.

EDIT:I'm not using it for system settings, only apps and there settings.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] iamcxa:
i used titanium backup too, it's running good and always work for me. but i think should notice restore the Settings ,it may cause strange situation.

For example, i restore my sense Launcher setting, then my Sense Launcher is become have nothing widget even no HTC clock. i have to add them by myself.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] >Prometheus<:
OK once again i have to say first excuse me for my bad english. i hope everything i try to explain is good enought to understand me :)

as i wrote the whole speed of the device and the lags ar depending on the speed of the sd card. i still don't know if the class realy does matter or the read/write speed or the chip architecture but now i testet 5 defferent cards and with every card i got other results.

everybody could try his own tests and check his own read/write speed. install hdtune (free version) and connect phone using magldr usb drive (3rd point) and start benchmark. i've done it with every card and the differences are not as big as i thought but there are differences. and the fastest card gives me the best result in my rom test. but i think there are still differences between writing into a fat partition and a ext4 partition on the same card.

it would be nice if everybody with or without problems could do such a benchmark of his card and could explain his own results with this rom like responsetime by unlooking. i know such tests take a long time because after flashing it is nessessary to wait and reboot the device some time to get the full speed as possible but if we want to know how we could get the most speed and the best rom we need to do such tests.
