[Adam General] ghost55:
So, A few really good locking tablets came out of CES 2011, The Notion Ink Adam, and the Motorola Xoom. Both run basically identical internal hardware, the only difference between the two being the OS (stock 3.0 vs a heavily modified version of 2.2). I am trying to decide to get the Adam now, or wait a few months, so I have a few very specific questions:

1. Which wifi only version will be cheaper, and how much will each cost.

2. Which OS experience will be better.

3. Which one has the best extra features (Does the Adam have something cooler then a barometer?)

thanks.
[Adam General] ksizzle9:
Xoom will have the best tablet designed OS, at least u would think. But then again the adam has been in the works for about the past 2 years lol so it should be in good shape.
[Adam General] lilmikz:
Just letting you know that the Motorola Xoom was only running a stock version of 3.0 in the videos shown of it. I think the adam will supply you with the best of both worlds with eden and then swipe up and have normal andoird. Also Notion Ink is going to update the Adam to 3.0 when it comes out and they plan to work fast and hard on it to get the update out. Personally i think you would be sacrificing a lot of extra features such as full size usb ports, Pixel Qi display, A lot of community support and other features. Also just because Motorola has 3.0 first doesn't mean its going to be the best. A lot of companies will learn from their mistakes and improve as time goes on. Look at motorola's mobile phones with andoid some people love the ui and some people hate it.
[Adam General] Kartiel:
I preorder a Adam but I cancel my order after I saw the xoom at CES. I know the xoom doesn't offer as much of features as Adam but one thing a really hate is companies making their own UI to go but their products. I like my android experience stock. The xoom is going to be a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for.
[Adam General] gbishop18:
The Xoom does have a custom ui. Blur. It was running stock 3.0 at ces but it won't be when u get it. And all you have to do is swipe up and you have stock on the Adam. From what i've read the Xoom is shipping with 2.3 and will be upgraded to 3.0 at a later date.
[Adam General] ghost55:
I have a hard time seeing that happen.
[Adam General] bluelt1ss:
at this point they seem close enough in comparison that im going to buy whichever becomes available first since i missed the first preorder of the notion.
[Adam General] ghost55:
I can't wait until the reviews start coming out!
[Adam General] gbishop18:
Correction on my part. I guess Xoom is shipping with honeycomb. It was the fact that it won't ship LTE capable but will be upgradable to it later. Sorry for the mistake.
[Adam General] shanti.om:
I pre-ordered Adam, my first tablet, and am looking forward to its delivery.
[Adam General] ksizzle9:
Douche bag the xoom will have plain ole honeycomb on it. That is the custom ui. Don't hate because it will be better than your adam. Im very excited about the adam but don't make up lies about the xoom to boost your self esteem
[Adam General] ksidirt:
No dude. Do the research. The Xoom is shipping with stock 3.0 but an update is going to be pushed to have Blur integrated.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/21/motoblur-coming-to-xoom-as-software-update-still-considered-goo/

And the Xoom is going to cost at least $800. Forget that. Adam all the way.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/21/motorola-xoom-priced-at-800-at-a-minimum-according-to-verizon/
[Adam General] LordLugard:
The same link you reference has since being updated. Xoom is not having moto blur, stock 3.0.
[Adam General] Nospin:
UI's are pretty pointless, seeing you can just root and throw a custom rom on it. If the adam gets good reviews and dev support, you can bet a stock ui will be made. If you get a xoom you may even be able to throw eden on there, as long as motorola doesn't lock it tight.

So no fighting guys.
[Adam General] ghost55:
I read that the xoom will be $800, and the cheapest Adam will be $375.

the path is obvious, considering the fact that they have nearly the same internals.
[Adam General] el-zilcho:
+1 , Motorola makes garbage , I use their products almost every day . Notionink Qi or bust !!!
[Adam General] joshua.lyon:
I pre-ordered a NI Adam and I'm anxiously awaiting it, but I am impressed by the Xoom. The Xoom display is higher resolution, the bezels appear to be much thinner, and it comes stock with more internal memory. It will be interesting to see how the screen quality compares on the NI Adam to the Xoom. On the other hand, the swivel camera of the NI seems pretty cool -- although some find it to be gimicky. And it's still not clear to me how the HDMI works on the Xoom -- is it a mini/micro HDMI, through a dock, or regular HDMI right on the tablet?

If at a later point in time Motorola releases a Wifi only model at a lower price point (even with only 16GB of memory), I might be interested in picking one of those up...
[Adam General] inspiron41:
i'm more interested in overall quality of the UI and apps that support tablet. Those who pre-ordered Adam did so with the intension of being upgraded to Honeycomb. Honeycomb is truly where all the tablets need to be at, because the all current Market application are not optimized for tablets. I went with adam because of the PQ. it might not be the cutting edge high end resolution, but my battery life is great. i can go though 12hrs easily...make me wonder if i should do a time lapse photography of how long the battery on the Notion Ink can last. but yes, the XOOM does has its advantages. if only the two can merge some how lol!
[Adam General] joshua.lyon:
I have some doubts that NotionInk will be able to quickly release Honeycomb on their tablets. Unless Google has a major change of opinion -- it doesn't really make sense for Google to allow NotionInk to put Honeycomb on their device (at least with full Google Apps support) if NotionInk will really be including their own "market" on the device (aka Genesis). It will be really interesting to see how Google / NotionInk handle Honeycomb.

Regardless, I'm sure someone here at XDA-devs will get Honeycomb on the Adam pretty quick. It would be nice to see a merge of the NI adam and the Xoom. I'd really just like to see the Adam with really thin bezels (like their prototypes) and with a good quality display (higher resolution, good contrast/colors, and great viewing angle).

any information why after I flashed 2.5.0.1-streak-clockworkrecovery ,the device can not update using the 2nd choice in recovery update using update.pkg on SD card ?

help pls
[Streak 5 Android Development] OrionBG:
It't pretty simple! You've installed CWM! The Recovery partition is different now and the software that flashes the pkg files was there! To flash a pkg file You will have to flash original DELL recovery via fastboot!
[Streak 5 Android Development] Davidsy:
Mod recovery (like 2.5.0.1 ...) is for flash Custom Rom (Cook Rom, like StreakDroid 1.6 DJ ...)

Only Stock Recovery recognize Stock Update.pkg, but can not be used for Cook Rom

This is what finally worked for me..

Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - All - "SNS" - "Force Stop" - "Clear data" then went to "SNSAccount" (has Facebook Icon) - "Clear data"

Then I went back into Settings - Accounts and sync - Tap on Sync Contacts - had to log back into Fb.

It then started syncing for about 3 minutes. Since then all the Contact icons, Updates and Media have been working. SNS = "Social Networking Setting"

What do your friends think of your device?

I told my friend what device I planned on getting for my upgrade, he had immediate disgust, being a Apple loyalist. He told me I was better off going to Android because its open, he doesn't have reason why open is good. When I finally got my HD7 in the mail he was there to see me unbox it. And it amazed him, which surprised me. Then I was playing with it around a few other friends and they loved it....Especially my girlfriend, she loved how easy it was yo navigate the OS compared to my last device, Cliq with Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
when introducing my friends to phones, i try and be as neutral as possible. as a result, one of my friends is getting a htc 7 trophy this week.

in the end, those that know the name first think about the old windows mobile, and hence give that response. the best way to get them past that is to have yours at hand, unlock it, and let them play with it.

let the phone do the talking. then end of story.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Coming from WM 6.5

My experience has been similar. My friends and family are used to me with my FUZE and WM 6.5.5 custom ROM. I just hand them my Focus and let them try it, answer any questions, and they are off and running and don't want to give it back to me LOL. Android, Apple, WM users, doesn't matter. The UI grabs them, especially the ease of navigation. When they use the MSN Movies app and watch the trailers, they are blown away.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jtn04:
Same experience here. This girl i know saw me using my focus and asked if she could see it. I hand her the phone and she just fell in love with it. I show her all the different hubs and all she could say was "this is sick..when is verizon getting one" lol. Like JamesAllen said.....the UI really grabs them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Experience

My most memorable experience was walking into a larger Radio Shack store in NJ and asking for a pouch for the Focus and pulling out the phone. The sales clerk was a girl about 20 years old who grabbed the phone from me, asked what it was (they only sell the LG WP7 phone and that was a model) and immediately began playing with it. She was very technical and moved through the tiles and apps with ease, logged into Marketplace etc. and forgot all about my pouch. It was funny to see a young, technical person latch onto the phone with amazement.
[Windows Phone 7 General] adesonic:
When you young people say something is "sick" does that mean it is unwell?

3 people have bought wp7 phones after seeing mine, everyone else who has seen it was impressed but at the wrong point in their contract to change phones, although they will now seriously consider wp7 when they renew.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
I am such a fan of the WP7 OS that I make a point of telling everyone I know about it. Anyone who sees me use it is impressed. I don't know if I have facilitated any actual WP7 purchases but I have definately opened it up for possibility with people who probably would have remained Android or iPhone fanboys for the near future.

I even make a point of walking into T-Mobile stores to talk about WP7 and to give feedback to them. The reason is because I have asked reps what other people think about WP7 and they usually just say, "I haven't heard much about it." At least it'll plant he seed with the reps to talk up WP7. I feel like an infantry unit for MS haha.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nonameleft:
I also get favorable responses when I show the phone. A few fell head over heels for it. The one comment I don't like and should scare Microsoft is the one where the person says, "This is a fantastic phone but...I got my iTunes and Ipod and want everything organized together." I know every platform has hooks to make it difficult for the user to leave. It can be from an electronic device to a bank. Just that Apple has big hooks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
At least in the US, "Sick" is oftentimes used as a replacement word for "Awesome" or "Amazing" or "Rad".
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
Hooks which suck.

iTunes is the hell on earth. That's why i sync my really old iPod only every 2 or 3 months.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brondum:
First my friends where like"uhh that's just another Iphone clon (because they are used to everything that has a touchscreen is apple stuff)" then i would say "why is it a clon of apples iphone, tell me one thing that makes it a clon" and they can't answer. This just tells is how "stupid" some people are sometimes.

But as times go my friends are falling in love whit the smooth interface with live tiles, and actually one of my friends are going to buy one because of that.

This comes from a former Iphone and Ipad owner, noe on Omnia 7 and love it <3

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] someone0:
Let me first tell you about myself.

1. I'm a geek.

2. I don't like programming that much, so I avoid it. I learn stuff to get by, but yes I avoid it. I have access to both XP & Linux, running it as a PDC server at home along w/ VPN server (ClearOS w/ modified bridge OpenVPN ).

Some background about myself that may help you answered my question, or pointing in the right correct direction. (no middle finger to the right.) And here is past experience on mobile device.

I have used Nokia 770 and N800, fun to hack back then but it's pretty useless now. I had SERO 500 , which I just recently upgraded to SERO Premium 500. I have been using HTC TP2 w/ Energy ROM. It has been good, granted TP2 is an older phone w/ older Qualcomm CPU. Energy ROM did help a lot, along w/ a few tweak, I manage to keep the battery to last pretty long and upon boot up I got about 70% memory left to use. So, I'm not exactly new to the custom ROM myself. That said, I'm new to the Android phone and custom ROM. I have been reading in the past 2 weeks deciding between Epic 4G and EVO Shift 4G. Well, I end up w/ Epic 4G as a final choice. Already ordered the phone, but still waiting for it. So, I don't have Epic 4G as off right now. But I would like to start playing w/ it once I get a hold of it. That's why I end up here asking for some wisdom in this forum.

After doing some research, I think I think get the basic concept of flashing custom ROM on a new Epic phone. If I got it wrong, let me know.

prep step 0. get USB drivers.

1. root it, 2 steps root?

2. install CWM3 for recovery.

3. flash new ROM, appearance each chef have difference instruction for the install. That's where it start confusing me.

Few things that are unclear to me, should I update PRL prior to rooting it and flash new ROM or after? Or should I even put DK28 on it prior to start rooting it? I'm guessing a no on 2nd one, as it's not necessary.

Now, rough question, what ROM is close in term of the way it package that most closed to the Energy ROM. I'm leaning toward either Nebula or Bonsai. Since Epic is only on Sprint only, I'm sure some of you have use TP2 or might have even used Energy ROM in the past. If you haven't, I'm sure you know where to look for reference. Again, what I very looking for is a Froyo ROM(if not Gingerbread) that's clean, lean, snappy and stable. In fact I don't even care if the Samsung TouchWiz is totally removed. I even think I might like Touch Flo interface better, but I suppose I won't have it. I think I have read enough to know where to find the TouchWiz apk(s) and remove it, so that's not a big problem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Welcome to android your steps are 1.get drivers 2 dl one click root plus cwm. Once you have it rooted with cwm you can start flashing. If you want to go to the froyo leak then flash the upgrade first then start the root process. If you go with froyo,which I love it and I have bonsai rom and it works perfect, you have some choices when rooting. If you want to stay with the stock Rfs filing system use the one click with cwm v2.5. If you want to run ext4filing system then run the one click root with cwm3. This new clockwork will convert your filing system to ext4 for you. My setup is in my sig and is my favorite. It's up to you to pick the rom you like the best. Make sure before you root turn your USB debugging on. Good luck and welcome to android.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daddymikey1975:
In addition to what was posted, Nrgz is a great chef. I used his stuff for quite some time when I had my TP2.

That being said.. WinMo and Android are 2 different animals.

I think you'll find that you're going to flash each ROM and play with it for a few days to determine which one you prefer.

They are all very nice in their own right. Some of us have favs. The neat thing about android vs WinMo is that after you flash a ROM in Winmo, it's a big pain in the ass to set your device back up (if you weren't using custom scripts).. with android, it's much much easier and can be completed within a couple minutes.

I think you'll enjoy that aspect of it.

Welcome to Android :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seroaddict:
I'm making the same transition as you, long live the TP2. I followed the how-to recommended by the wiki, but a lot of that is actually a waste of time at this point, except as a learning experience. The steps that actually got me ROMed (I'm assuming you'll pick an Ext4/DK28 ROM:

1. install 32-bit drivers on Windows

2. put phone into debug, connect

3. flash DK28 to phone using ODIN

4. copy zip for ROM of choice to root of sdcard

5. run cwm3 to change file system, root device

6. flash with custom ROM while in recovery

From what I understand, only steps 4 and 6 will have to be repeated when trying other ROMs. Wifi tethering isn't working for me on ViperROM, so I think I'll try something else.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirodema:
Hi,

first of all, I am not using a HAVS kernel anymore since I only had bad experience with it. But I would like to ask you, if I am the only one who had bad experiences. So here is the problem:

No matter which rom I tried, every time I use a kernel with this super cool HAVS-feature, my batterylife increased a lot, but the phone was nearly unusable after a few hours of idling. Direct after the boot process, the phone worked like normal, but if it was a few hours in stand-by, I had to wait a few seconds (at least 30+) until the phone did ANYthing. Mostly it was a FC from the launcher app, and it didnt matter which one (zeam, launcherpro, adw, and so on, all the same). I somehow didnt care, because once I made a testcall to test if this sluggish behaviour applies to phone-calls, too, and it didnt. Sometimes the launcher wasnt even usable after 3 FC's and I had to reboot the phone. Did I do something wrong? I also tried various SetCPU settings (ondemand, interactive, smartass, profiles) but these settings didnt have any impact on this behaviour.

So, am I the only one with this problem? Because I never read, that anyone else has this problem. If yes, what did I do wrong?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Yes this behavior is normal. Not every desire likes a havs kernel. With havs you use less voltage for the same speed. And because every phone is slightly different you could have one which does not like it. So your phone gets to little power to do it's job, that's why you have crashes etc.

So it's not a problem with havs but a problem with your phone.

Also there are different havs kernel, 875mv or for example 925mv. Maybe you could try a 925mv, that one uses a little more juice. Otherwise stick with SVS.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirodema:
Ah, thank you for the information. Isnt there a 950mV kernel by chance? I tried from 875 to 925 all I could find, but they behaved all the same :). Seems like my Desire doesnt like HAVS kernels at all.
