Im not going to lie but the iphone is a pretty powerful machine. Dont hold me to this but i have heard that the processor is underclocked to 1 ghz to save battery..

But the os is so locked down which makes it better in some ways and worse in others.. if you havent noticed, the iphone sets the standard for smartphones, its always "well it compares to.the iphone this.... iphone that..." .

Apple does their research right and always sets the bar for smartphones. The reason it is not customizable is so that everything will work correctly. I personally don't prefer that I can't change anything (without jailbreaking of course, which is a pain in the ass) .

I kind of have the best of both worlds with an ipod touch 4g. Its very very fast and has excellent battery life but its just so boring..

So if he's not tech savvy then tell him to wait for the next iphone. However if he is lol tell him to wait for the samsung galaxy s 2.

Ios is so ugly compared to what we have with android. It is so busy. I never noticed until I got used to android, but now when I see someone using an iphone I can't help but think that the screen is annoyingly crammed full of icons. Who wants to look at all that junk?

Also the screen is noticably smaller

To me a 4" android screen is infinitely more plesant to use.

hey guys i have a Droid 2 (not global) that i'd like to get on metro. i've seen countless guides on the Droid 1, but i'm pretty sure Droid 2 will have a different procedure. also saw a cricket guide here, but again, not sure if a metro flash can be done with it. any help is appreciated. thanks.

If you get help let me no im trying to do the samething i got a little info not much!

Pretty sure the fcc considers that fraud so it is not openly discussed.
[Droid 2 General] SilverSpoonWireless:
Why must you be ignorant. It is not illegal to flash phones, why do you think metroPCS offers their metroFlash service in their corporate stores. Before you start rambling on please do some research and stop misleading others.

The FCC considers ESN/MEID cloning fraud, and is a Federal Offense.

If anyone needs assistance with flashing a Droid to metroPCS please contact our store:

I am enjoying the 0.6.6 flashable Nookie Froyo experience. But, I haven't yet figured out how to get the Market App on the device. Am I missing something obvious?
[Nook Color General] DrewLGT:
you should be able to find the apk in the dev section, install via adb
[Nook Color General] yl328:
I'd recommend installing CUSTOMIZED Nookie Froyo as opposed to Nookie Froyo which is very vanilla whereas the customized version has a lot of things already set up -- such as the Market, Google Apps, Softkeys and SuperUser.
[Nook Color General] cray1000:
where does one find this CUSTOMIZED version. i assume not on xdda becaue it includes gapps>?

Ok so I have a question generally I only flash roms and just leave then as is with no modem/kernal flashing after. However this time I wanted to flash speed mod kernal plus a jk4 modem as I saw some posts regarding good battery plus other good stuff while running andromeda 1.0. However when I try and instal the update zip for the speedmod kernal in cwm in the recovery menu it just stays at installing update. Does it take longer than 5 mins? How.can i solve this? I know im using the correct version too as I downloaded it here in the captivate forum. If your wondering I take the battery out after a few mins cuz it just stands there.

Thanks!

The title says it all.. Im trying to install the honeycomb. Now im coming from nookie froyo on the EMMC and want honeycomb to be on there instead..... Do i have to come from eclair with CWR as a recovery partition? or can i get adb access from the CWR SD Card?

Ive got ADB on nookie froyo running great. But cannot get it running in CWR or in honeycomb on the SDcard... any tips?

If you had looked 3 threads down, you would have seen another thread called "Slightly better gingerbread" just like yours. Half way down the page is a link called "Download SBG 2.5 'Keepin' It Real' Edition" with a description stating "Has the standard 4 bar signal strength, 3G icon, and no fancy animations."

Not sure why this needed it's own thread.

Im posting this here because I'm not entirely sure whether to post this in the App Dev forum, but, is there any way to get the FM radio working in Fission? I also would like to know why it doesn't work, problems with the files? The firmware? Incompatible kernel? Im running Fission 2.5.7, and would like to get the fm radio working to show off...

Powered by Fission, from my DROID 2
[Droid 2 General] mcmillanje:
You can get it from fission rom manager. Download moto music app, its included. . . Dunno about the standalone app, but I'm sure the rom supports it since moto music has it ;)
[Droid 2 General] xzillerationer:
The Multimedia Pack- Moto- Droid 2? Because, I installed that, and didn't notice any difference

Powered by Fission
[Droid 2 General] xzillerationer:
I have to say, I upgraded to Liberty 1.5, and now the radio problem is gone!
[Droid 2 General] mcmillanje:
Liberty has fm radio by itself from liberty toolbox (get it on the market)

The moto modded one, not stock moto. There are two diff... its only in latest version of FRM. The very first entry under addon.

Once its installed select radio for fm and online radio.
[Droid 2 General] mcmillanje:
There's a thread under D2 themes and apps on how to push it with adb... should work with any rom.
[EVO Shift 4G General] aisseleacim03:
Today, my daughter asked me to watch a Youtube video in my phone. I opened up the application and found the video she wanted and clicked it...after a few seconds..."Sorry we cant play that video try again" pop up. i tried again and again and again and again to no avail... tried a different video...nothing.

Went to the browser, open Youtube clicked on a video and similar message appeared.."cant play that video"

Went to the market and downloaded the update for Youtube but besides the change of the layout and display, the same results.

Finally I went to Flixter to try and watch a trailer and the same result..."Sorry that video cant be played"

Finally after many and many retries, one video played but when I clicked it again to play, back to same old "sorry cant play video"

I have temporary root and have had it for a while with out any issues. I actually turned my phone off and lost root and tried to watch videos but no success.

I remember having similar issues with my Hero but hadn't had any problems with my Shift until now

Anybody else with this issues? Any fixes? .
[EVO Shift 4G General] koolkid09:
Yes I have that issue on 3g. On wifi and 4g it works just fine though. Weird.
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
I had the same issue after messing with temp root on my shift. After many tries of updating, installing update, going to YouTube website and rebooting phone I couldn't get it to work for the life of me. I finally reset the phone to factory and have not updated my youtube app (shilling the version that shipped on phone) and now I have very high success rate unless I have less than 3 bars of signal then it takes a couple tries but it still plays fine. I hope that helps. Let me know if that helped any.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alher591:
Check out upload and download speeds in the development forums. I was having these issues too. It seems sprint blocks something in there proxy that prevents streaming media at least some of it
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
Here's the quick and dirty way to fix streaming. You need your msl. Go to dialer and hit ##3282#

Edit, enter msl, advanced.

Scroll all the way to the bottom. Last four fields make the ports 0 (zero) and other two 0.0.0.0

Reboot and streaming music should work, maybe video too. Something else I do is just download the damned video and watch it if the player is being stubborn. I like jetvd. You might find it in the market but the last time I looked it was gone. Your can Google jetvd android download and look for the URL that is jet's site. I don't remember what it was. They have a download link for the apk. I got it and installed and watch stuff that way when YouTube app is being a *****.
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
Yea thanx for reminding me, I forgot to mention I tried the proxy address mod for myself and actually caused me to lose all net capability. So from personal experience it didn't work but some users are swearing by the mod. That's another option. Me personally I try not to change settings like that in case down the road it breaks a future app and I forgot what I did etc etc. But its worth a try for the OP.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ttown:
Same for me. Running stock non rooted.
[EVO Shift 4G General] k2buckley:
Same thing is happening on my roomate's Shift. 3G is no go at all, 4G is hit or miss, works sometimes, and I didn't try wifi. aLogcat shows some error with mediaplayer and stagefright. I'll have to look again to remember the exact error/code. His phone is perma rooted, stock ROM and kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G General] herbthehammer:
I've ruu'd my phone a few times so far. You think that might of fixed any factory flash snafu? I didn't have this problem before ruu either. Sometimes YouTube app is very stubborn.
[EVO Shift 4G General] k2buckley:
I haven't tried RUU yet, I dont think it's bothering him enough yet for me to go any further with it. Yes, the youtube app is very stubborn sometimes, as it always has been on my own Evo. However, this is happening (sorry, video cannot be played) whether its on the youtube app, or on youtube.com using the browser. Same results. Very strange.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ttown:
Take this for what it's worth:

I went into the Sprint store and talked with some of the techs. They said they are aware of this issue with the Shift and the Evo. They say Sprint is working on a fix for this issue.
[EVO Shift 4G General] foxsdaddy67:
Lmao like Sprint and Samsung is getting froyo for the epic?
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
Good heads up on what the techs said. Hopefully its some simple and make the app more reliable considering hats the point of unlimited data I'd I can't even use the factory features. A minor issue but the principle of the fact. So far mine still being pretty consistent with playing videos except when in a weaker signal area.
[EVO Shift 4G General] lgmayka:
Setting RTSP parameters to 0 and 0.0.0.0 made Youtube unwatchable over 3G. Setting those parameters back to their defaults fixed the problem.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jeezimus:
I really wouldn't put any faith in the sprint techs. Like the poster above said...just look at their track record with releasing an official 2.2 for the epic =\
[EVO Shift 4G General] Quis89:
Sprint communicated to the stores that this is a known issue that will be resolved in future updates.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Quis89:
That would ber on samsung...not sprint. As you see the galaxy s line of phones are just now starting to see the 2.2 light on all carriers...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lenarass:
what is HSPL? what actually does to our phone?

i just want a simple answer because am flashing it all day and its stupid to not know what actually does:)

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tictac0566:
It´s a bit far stretched, but compare it to the BIOS of a PC.

An SPL actually loads the software which is on the ROM you have on your device.

The Stock SPL includes some "safety controls" such as device ID and a carrier ID.

HSPL is a modified SPL which allows you to flash custom ROMs as it gives a "super CID" to the phone... SSPL does the same, but not permanently.

The video is short, i dont have another camera but my Launcher Pro keeps restarting. Manu times I press back or home i find myself waiting for LP to restart, displaying the icons and reloding the widgets, i dont know if this has anything to do with rom/kernel im using (Phoenix 4.5, GB kernel) but i dont know what to do.

try this first:

go to setting->applications->manage applications->all

find LP application, then click "clear data".

but if i delete the data will i lose the configurations i have and the Plus.provilegies? I dont know my unlock number so im afraid i will lose that ability.

Save settings in launcher pro. If you lose your unlock code ot will ask for your email and send it to you again
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hernan078:
i did that, i spent a lot of time restoring LP the way i had it, but it continues to restart every time i press back for example angry birds, catch notes, :S
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronsuarez95:
is this issue solved?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumster:
One solution is to go into Advanced preferences in LP and change the memory settings to "High". This fixed it for me.

the compass calibrate app does not work after i updated the system to android2.2. i've done as the demo animation shows lots of times, but the screen couldn't turn green.

is there anyone encountering the same problem? and is this a bug of froyo2.2?

thanks.
[Defy General] Khrushy:
It does work, but it seems fussier than on Eclair.

I turned it for ages, then I *think* I was careful to reverse it back the opposite way a few times, and it just went green.

However you usually spin it, do the opposite.

I know it's hardly a scientific method but hey.
[Defy General] xdaid:
I had this issue on Eclait too. I had to try so many times before it turned green.
[Defy General] aaatoel:
I still have this in Eclair. Not a big problem though, as it seems to be very accurate despite it turns red every time I try to calibrate it.

[Epic 4G General] Poryhack:
I don't know about the Epic but if you're transferring large files/lots of files to your Epic's microSD from a computer you can take full advantage of class 10 speeds.

The only microSD writes worth mentioning on a mobile device like this would be photos and videos; the Epic only does video at 720p which slower cards most likely can handle.
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Mine came with a class 2. When Assurion sent me a refurb epic, there was no sd card with it so I kept using the original.

[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Thanks for the replies I have a class 6 on the way.
[Epic 4G General] Poryhack:
Uh... no. Any device that supports microSDHC will support any speed (unless you're talking about windows phone 7 where they need some kind of retarded certification).
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Based on my experience, any class microSD will work in the Epic, but I don't think the Epic will take advantage of the speed of any cards higher than class 4. I have the stock 16gb class2 card, and a class 6 card. File transfers are about the same speed on the class 2 card weather it's in the Epic, or in my PC's card reader. However, even though the class 6 card is faster than the class 2 card in both situations, it is significantly faster in the card reader than it is in the Epic. It appears file transfers a capped at a certain speed when it's mounted in the Epic regardless of class.
[Epic 4G General] poit:
Class specs can be really misleading and sometimes outright lies. In tests, Sandisk class 2 cars have outperformed some other manufacturers class 4 or class 6 cards.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Hence the reason they cost more.
[Epic 4G General] viper786:
I copied all my music to my the sandisk class 4 card asurion sent me and it transferred significantly quicker than it did on my samsung class 2 card

i actually did the oppisite. I returned my impact for a defender, even with the screen problem i still like the defender better. i dont like the feel of the impact and i think the volume/power buttons are more difficult to hit with the impact. im prolly just going to remove the built in screen protector.

I'm glad I did, just the little bit of silicon exposed on the commuter attracks lint enough that every few days it needs a good wipe down.

I agree best case ever, I am a soldier and tend to get carried away with training, forgetting I have breakabke things on me. This case takes ALL the abuse I dish out and it still looks new, and my phone gets no damage at all. I wish I could say the same for my body. I wonder if otterbox would make me a case to cover the places my battle armor doesn't, it would sure cut down on injuries and trips to the medics!!!

I have the defender, and yes I do notice some touch screen issues from time to time..mostly with swype. I usually have it out of the case unless I am at work. I am a paramedic, so I end up being pretty rough on phones, and they drop, etc quite often.

This morning as I was getting back into the ambulance, the phone caught on the seat at just the right angle that the belt clip and holster for phone were pulled apart. I thought I had just busted my otterbox holster, because my old nextel style snap in holsters always broke this way...what a surprise to find out the ole folks at otterbox must have thought of this. The connection between the swivel belt clip and the holster part for the phone actually snaps on and off...Took some muscle but snapped it back in place and good as new...Love my case even more now
