The iphone it's the only reason. But now it looks like verizon is going to be taking over the world.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
...kind of how a newer and better Android phone is announced every month instead of every year?
[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
Pretty much. As a later adopter, these things don't bother me. Whatever device i'm upgrading to has usually been out for a good 6+ months by the time I get it. At that point most of the bugs are worked out, price is cheaper, better development support, etc. It's no wonder sprint releases their latest and greatest at the start of summer, but best prices are to be had near the year end holidays.

Btw, thanks for quoting the whole thing

EVO vs iPhone

screen: iphone wins

camera: iphone wins

battery life: iphone wins

factory sd card size and speed: iphone wins

apps: iphone wins - more apps and better looking apps

operating system: iphone wins, super smooth and polished

hardware acceleration: iphone wins (oh wait, android doesn't even have any...)

audio quality: iphone wins

build quality: iphone wins

flash: EVO wins, even though it plays choppy most of the times

4G: EVO wins, even though without investing another $60 in an extended battery, your stock battery will die in a few hours with 4G on

Rooting: EVO wins, even though 80% of the people on this planet dont need to root in order to void their factory warranty and flash useless roms that offer mostly nothing over the stock rom

I'm an EVO fanboy, I'm ignorant and I approve this message!

:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] tangstang:
My extended battery(3500 ma) was $10 with back piece, honestly its not that much better than the regular battery.... where I was getting 30ish hours or so? stock battery dropped 7% listening to pandora over BT while at the gym for over an hour, that's not bad.

Rooting does have its advantages, wireless tether for free is a $30/mth advantage, not to mention SIP calling which is available in GB. They're plenty of reasons.

If I want someone to tell me how to told my damn phone I'll get an iphone and move to Egypt or something. I like being able to hold my phone how I want and use my phone how I want.

Only downside I have really noticed is since rooting my camera is kinda shabby.

The iphone is the main reason why at&t has as many subscribers as they do, it'll be interesting to see where they are in a year or so when Verizon has alot of their current users.
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
At the end of the day AT&T still has better service in a lot of places. And service in some places that Sprint doesnt have any altogether. If you look at Sprints national coverage map its actually pretty limited in suburban places. I know in GA if you travel down 85 South about an hour south of Atlanta, if you leave the interstate Sprint literally has no coverage at all. I was kind of amazed that when I went down there I actually had to roam to get service. Then it made sense as to why Verizon and AT&T had stores everywhere but there wasnt a Sprint store in sight.
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
unlimited roaming ftw, I'm a trucker and I can honestly say that sprints coverage is adequate, when I get to a bad coverage area there is always verizon. in my travels I have found very few places with no coverage
[EVO 4G General] jasonleb1:
In my area, AT&T is the best coverage you can get and Sprint is the worst. But on a nation-wide level, it has more to do with the iPhone.
[EVO 4G General] Dstroya:
Probably from when they joined with cingular, then the iphone came... its funny i left att just before the iphone.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
I have friends who are already talking about the iPhone 5 and that they are definitely going to get it. I asked them how is it going to be different from the 4g, a kickstand? They couldn't answer me.
[EVO 4G General] luderbeck1:
AT&T has been such a massive force in this country for many years and has acquired dozens of telephony companies. Thus, they have huge nationwide presence for residential, business, and wireless service. Plus, the iPhone was only available with them since it's introduction.

Verizon isn't far behind that is why they are #2.
[EVO 4G General] rockky:
And um....sprints network is slow as hell...Att's way faster....
[EVO 4G General] us3rm3:
iphone + att + verizon + apple product are for dumb asses. u don't think so? do the math..math makes sense.
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
Dumb post. Verizon has the best cellular network in the nation by far and AT&T is second. Contrary to what some people believe Sprint doesnt have good coverage everywhere. And obviously people dont mind paying more money for a better product. If they did everyone would be riding in Honda Accords because of the value and no one would be riding BMWs, Lexus or Benz. When you can afford it and its a better option then no one really cares about the "value" aspect.. which is pretty much the main thing Sprint has going these days.
[EVO 4G General] bigmoogle:
You do know that there are ATT and Verizon customers who do not have the iphone, right?

One data point, my brother originally got an ATT account because of the gsm network. He travels, so popping in foreign sim cards was a nice feature. Then the iphone came out.

In our area, verizon seems to be everywhere including the metro, so lots of people have verizon.

Can anyone recommend a kernel for MIUI with 0004 hardware that does not have SBC? I tried the Savage kernel, but the phone kept rebooting when I charged it. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowDrake:
Hey, got a weird issue here. I'm running the stock HBOOT on my 0003 evo (one of the temporarily unrootable ones with the different partition tables) but I'm running Myn's warm RLS5, and an old version of the SBC kernel that trickle charges.

Everything has been working fine for a while. I went to flash the .zip to apply the SD Card speed fix on boot. Used the power menu to boot into recovery, and got stuck on the white EVO 4G screen.

Pulled the battery, held volume down, and went into recovery - got stuck again.

Pulled battery and booted normally - everything's fine. It still boots normally but won't boot into recovery.

Before I attempt to reflash my recovery image, is there anything that could have caused it to get corrupted?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] algirnavi451:
Did you try rebooting into recovery while your phone is booted? Or trying adb reboot recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topdawgn8:
Sounds like your recovery image isn't there anymore. I had something similar happen. Just reflash your recovery and you should be good.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowDrake:
Yeah, that's actually what I tried first. I was connected to ADB wirelessly and it rebooted fine but got stuck at the white evo screen.

Sounds good, did it and all is well again. Thanks much :) Just didn't have the time to spend till the weekend to fiddle with it if that would have caused me more problems.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] teswolf96:
Are you installing from the market or sideloading? If you are sideloading, make sure it is enabled and accessible on the phone. On my Galaxy S Captivate from AT&T it comes with no option to sideload. I rooted it and manually enabled sideloading, now I thinking there is a one-click, though.

i have installed latest version on c0kie home tab with CHT .

every thing is working perfect , but i dont know how to change the appearance of that i mean themes :( can someone help please that how to change the look of mobile thanks alot ................
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] conantroutman:
Well your in the right place.......

Look through this section for the theme you want to install and follow the instructions in the thread........

If its a particular theme your having a problem with then whoever made it will usually be more than happy to help you sort the problem.

Most themes will be provided as cab files which you should place on your device and installed (by clicking on them) from there.

Always install themes and mods to your device memory and not your sd card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ninjablade:
i didnt get u i have try to installed many themes.cab files but nothing happend main screen is same lock screen is same nothing happend please help step by step or give me some links to ... thanks in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kurt-willems:
I don't know what you are looking for, but there are lot of skins here present (in cab files)

Just download the cab's, place the cab file to your sd, navigate with your device to your map on your SD where you have store your cab files, press on the cab to install, and select internal memory as installation path. follow by a soft reset, and all will works fine.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] conantroutman:
Perhaps if you could let us know what you have tried to install and how you did it then we can figure out why its not working.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ninjablade:
ohh yeah just to close

hi i have Omega Rom nd then i have installed Co0kie HomeTab latest with CHT latest

nd then now im trying to install .cab themes but the problem is just clock and some options changes but main affect is same like lock screen isnt change and background is not changed whats the prob thanks in advance

nd one more thing when i install .cab file its not asking me that where to save it in sd card or where its installing automatically :( as u said install it in phone memory but its not possible becuase its installing auto i dont know where :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] conantroutman:
ok first of all the wallpaper you l will need to change by yourself,

go to the cht menu and select set wallpaper.

make sure you have the cht lockscreen enabled by installing cht editor and enabling it using that.

if the cab is automatically installing then thats because the creator has set it to install to device so don't worry.

some themes come in separate cabs for clocks and other things so maybe you could post the cabs here and ill have a look at what they are meant to be changing.

try asking in the theme thread for help because if its an issue with the theme then someone else has probably had the problem before.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:
!!!ATTENTION!!!

Hi Ninjablade,

BE CAREFUL...

Before you enable CHT lockscreen... BE SURE you DO NOT have a PIN CODE enabled to unlock your phone....becuase you could be forced to do a Hard Reset.

I recomend you that you read very carefuly the CoOkie Home Tab thread to have clear how it works.

Then, as our friends said, you must ask for help in the thread of the theme you would like to install for specific instructions.

Good luck ;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Robert's PDA:
FYI: It's not called "TouchFlo3D" anymore, HTC changed the name to "Sense UI".

Here is the link to the developers page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=651007

Download the "meltwater HTC FbTab v1.6.cab"

The info on there can be kind of confusing so I put together a VERY simplified "how to guide.:

1.Disable Sense from Today items.

2.Install CAB (this will create a shortcut to "FixStartManila" in your Start Menu)

3.Tap "FixStartManila" to run it. It will likely seem like nothing happened.

4.Tap "FixStartManila" a second time. This time, you will likely see the wait cursor, it might take awhile, wait til it's done.

5.Re-enable Sense in Today items.

6.Done!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
Touch Flo3D and Sense are two different UI's. If he is using TF3D and not Sense, then he cannot install the Facebook tab as it is only for Sense users with a manila core of at least 2.5.192x with a patch.

TouchFlo3D is sometimes considered Sense 2.1. It is generally accepted on XDA (to avoid any confusion to new members) that TF3D and Sense are the versions 2.1 and 2.5 respectively.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Robert's PDA:
Sorry. I thought they renamed "TouchFlo3D" to "Sense UI" when they introduced the Pro2. So you're saying when the "original" Pro2 came out with manila 2.1 (WinMo 6.1) it was still called "TouchFlo3D"?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
Correct. It has been called Touch Flo3D as long as I can remember. It was originally just manila, then Touch Flo, or Touch Flo2D, and then Touch Flo3D was introduced on the Touch Pro2. Sense came shortly thereafter. Some people refer to Touch Flo3D as Sense2.1, and that is also correct. It is just important to note which version of Sense (or TF3D) you are using. Sense 2.5 programs and applications are not compatible with Sense 2.1 (TF3D). Whereas most, but not all Sense 2.1 (TF3D) programs and apps are compatible with Sense 2.5.

Hopefully this makes "sense" and clears things up for you. :)

Sorry guys, you might know this already but the update for WP7 have been delayed and I have a feeling it's going to be delayed even further (because the carriers may want to do their thing with it too).

They're now saying it's AT LEAST a month away, maybe more, due to CDMA compatibility.

The update may be just around the corner. I saw a knowledgde base article for troubleshooting the update process.

Here check it out.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2484484
[HD7 General] kwill:
Truthfully, the part that pisses me off is the lack of providing any real date or time frame at all. It seems to me that most of this (when the update is coming) is speculation based on really good guesses and small hints people find. And MSFT thinks it's ok to just leave us lingering and guessing while all the while, people continue to talk more crap about how they've done a terrible job thus far (even thought I don't feel totally that way). The only way I see this being ok is if I plug in my phone after typing this message and all of a sudden I see an update is available today:D Doubt it though;)
[HD7 General] fnordelus:
I don't mean to be a buzzkill but I don't think that's a good indication that the update is coming soon. "just around the corner" is also subjective to some that may mean in a week, to others that may mean in a few months.

For me I wish the update was here already.

WP7 takes some getting used to, but I've given my EVO and Nexus a much needed rest. I grew to absolutely love the interface on WP7! It's so fluid, and the performance is so consistent, I've yet to see my HD7 slow down at all.

The first update is supposed to bring a lot of change and I'm really anxious see how MS does, because this will be an solid indication of how serious they take WP7 which seems to be pretty serious. We'll see though.
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
I think we will see the update during the MWC in Feb 2011... I was trying to be positive about it by believing that it will be coming out in Jan 2011....

But not a big thing, however I will like to see the battery improvements and camera update also the performance upgrade from the best windows os we currently have....
[HD7 General] Trimegisto:
I was expecting also to see some evolution during January but I now I really believe that a more realistic approach is to expect to have nice upgrade during Q1, maybe March.

[Defy Android Development] mcm_xyz:
Thanks

What can I say.

I came from 2.34. Flashed your backup, then 3.4.2 boot only, then wiped.

What works:

1. Camera was fixed using cammera fix.

2. Phone app is recognizing my numbers from contacts even if they have country prefix before.

3. GSM and 3G connection worked out of the box.

What seems not to work:

1. Calendar seems not to be able to sync with google calendars. Maybe it's my bad but I only have Sync Contacts and Sync Gmail in my google account.

2. From my point of view there is still lots of bloatware (not necessary the blur stuff)

Thanks! Keep up the good work.

If i restore your buckup i'll be able to downgrade after?
[Defy Android Development] mcm_xyz:
Yes you will be able to downgrade after but only if you install the boot only sbf and not the entire rom.

So the steps are.

1. restore the backup provided in this thread.

2. when rebooting the phone will boot loop.

3. remove battery.

4. restart in sw update mode (power + up)

5. flash boot only sbf. (you can find it in the other thread )

6. reboot phone in recovery mode(power + down).

7. wipe data and cache.

8. reboot.

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] ellendel:
Thats the question if you will be able to flash after, any sbf with the rsd lite

or not?
[Defy Android Development] Muznyu:
Yes, if you just restore nandroid backup and install boot only sbf, you'll be able to go back for an earlier ROM, I tried it.

BTW camera is not working for me (blank screen) with this ROM for some reason. :(
[Defy Android Development] mcm_xyz:
little explanations

Let's make some light!

If you install the full rom you can find here :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922430

named p3_jordan_umts_jordan-user-2.2.1-3.4.2-107_JDN-4-000000-release-keys-signed-T-Mobile-US.sbf

You wont be able to downgrade!

RSD Lite will still work but it will only allow you to install this rom and not an earlier version like 2.34. Most probably will allow you to install future newer roms.

In order to be able to install anything you want at any time you want use boot only sbf or the full roms 2.21 or 2.34 or CN_2.2. Also take care that 2.51 is also locked (can not go down to 2.21 or 2.34 anymore)

Muznyu, flash the camera fix sbf and camera will start working.

;)
