[HTC Inspire 4G] gtg465x:
I just switched. Like it a lot more than my Captivate. Android 2.2.1 out of the box, Sense is a lot better than TouchWiz, no file system lag, perfect GPS, a lot more RAM, larger screen, camera flash, notification LED. I will miss the Super AMOLED. Also, the speaker and video recording/playback aren't as good as the Captivate, but I am much happier with this phone overall.
[HTC Inspire 4G] n0kia916:
gps signal worst then craptivate?

I take that back..please delete..

Wahoo! Welcome gtg!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
I've been extremely impressed with Sense. It's leaps and bounds ahead of Touchwiz. This'll be the first time I'm not running a third party home replacement. All good points made here. Specifically, the mention of the amount of RAM. I think that's the most overlooked part of this phone. It has significantly more RAM than any device currently available. This was my big problem with the captivate. I loaded up my captivate with services that improved my experience with it and I got to a point where I was low on memory and with Froyo STILL not out to free up the full 512mb of ram, I was at a crossroad with the captivate. The amount of ram the inspire has is one of my favorite points about it (and sense......wow!)
[HTC Inspire 4G] meatrocket:
You're dead on with this one! My Captivate was always struggling with available RAM. At first, I couldn't believe how much faster the Inspire was than the Captivate considering the specs weren't extremely different. When I opened TasKiller - WOW! I had almost 400MB free RAM! My Captivate usually only had about 70MB free and about 120MB after killing a bunch of stuff. I'm not sure what to attribute that to, but knowing HTC, I'd have to say that they've REALLY payed attention to their memory footprint with the new Sense implementation. All I know is that HTC has really impressed me again after being away from their platform since the last iteration. I'm really happy coming back to them after my experience with my Captivate. Now if AT&T could just get their data plans figured out!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Simba501:
The inspire has 768mb of ram. That's the difference (compared to 512mb of ram that every other high end smartphone currently available has).
[HTC Inspire 4G] nismopunch:
Just picked up my inspire last night coming from early upgrade from the captivate. I was happy how I was treated in store, however when I got home I found out I had no data service anymore. They deleted my unlimited data plan even though I asked before they even began the upgrade. Ended up calling customer service, and they tried to fight a little, then said they will submit a case to have it reinstated. adskl;askdl;askd!!!!!!! I went through this same crap when I got my captivate, but now it seems like they are really trying hard to get rid of the unlimited plans.

Anyways I AM VERY happy with the Inspire. Out of the box it does feel a lot snappier than the captivate with a fresh custom rom. I would imagine that it does actually have a lot to do with having more RAM than the captivate.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
Just got back from ATT with my Inspire!

Ahhh!!! Welcome sir.

I love to see former cappy users coming over here! Awesome :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
I've actually missed Sense :o My Hero was my favorite phone ever!
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
I already trashed sense. Running zeam, its crazy fast I even went as far as freezing everything sense related in titanium. I can always get it back with a simple flash. The beauty of this thing is the ability to run damn near run any config you want. When we get aosp that will be the way to go for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
I agre with you that there's faster stuff than sense, I just kinda missed it and will probably keep it as default for now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] uhmump95:
Between you guys and my wife having an Inspire at home, I am thinking about to call customer service and jacking my son's upgrade.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mron0903:
Same thing happened to me! I lost my unlimited data plan even though at the att store they told me I would be grandfathered in. So I called att customer service and they opened a case to reinstate my unlimited data, but they told me more than likely I would get it back. If not, this is definitely a deal breaker for me!
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
I had the no Mobile data problem. I called CSR and they fixed me right up. I dodn't have unlimited data to begin with so I didn't "lose" anything
[HTC Inspire 4G] nismopunch:
how long did they tell you the wait would be? they told me 9 days until they find out! :confused: until then i have one of those "new" data plans..

time for my captivate to go out now for warranty for the shutdowns
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
After a day of use, I have to say this thing runs circles around the Captivate. So glad to be rid of Samsung!

I can't imagine how good it'll be once the proper roms start coming out :eek:
[HTC Inspire 4G] mron0903:
They told me by the 24th it should be resolved. I just hope I get my unlimited back..

I had had iPhones since i was 15. Im 18 now, and sold my iPhone 4 to get the Inspire on the day of release. I actually REALLY enjoy android. Its crazy thinking that just a few days ago i was totally Apple.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
Happy switcher is happy.

My only "problem" if you can call it that is the phone is wider and heavier than the Captivate. My pinkie finger on my right hand is sore from holding the phone. I'm wondering if a soft case would help.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ekerbuddyeker:
I started this thread. After s few more days I think the overall experience of the Inspire is far better because of Sense especially since I didn't have to, root, hack, affix, install Rom etc.

But...

IMO This phone is highly inferior to a HACKED Captivate in terms of screen quality, video playback quality, video recording quAlity, sound quality (especially speaker), weight and battery life.

Conclusion: Samsung hardware is better but HTC software is better which makes using the Inspire a pleasure.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
Samsung hardware is better!!???????

I think you need to re-evaluate that statement. Samsung couldn't touch HTC build quality even if they sunk whether dime they had into r&d.

Inspire (rooted)

Leedroid v2.0.0

TELUS kernel
[HTC Inspire 4G] sportedwood:
Normally I would agree on samsungs build quality but holding both now they both have there pluses and for me the cappy actually feels better in the hand than the inspire.

I spent last night basically trying to get my inspire to where my captivate was. GB keyboard, removed sense , launcher pro, font and various UI tweaks. Feels like home now and changing the LCD density to 220 gives me just a little more room to work with. Overall I think I will keep the inspire simply due to the increased memory and no slowdowns due to it not always being maxed out like the captivate was. If cm7 makes its way to the i9000 I might flip flop but then again a working kernal for the inspire and cm7 will probably be out first.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ekerbuddyeker:
Better sound, better screen, better video recording, better playback, more bands, lighter and thinner. That's better quality to me.

tinysu: Compatible "su" command for Root Explorer / for HC images and what not?

So, I just installed HoneyComb to my NC's eMMC. Works well!

Unfortunately apps such as Root Explorer are not too happy because the "su" command provided with these ROMs is too chatty and that confuses them.

So, here is a very quiet, working "su" command. With it, Root Explorer will happily remount partitions, etc.

Note that, like the ROM's "su" command, SuperUser is out of the picture so use with care.

To install, using adb:

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
exit
adb push su /system/
adb shell
busybox cp /system/su /system/bin/
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system

All done. Note that the "busybox cp" should preserve the application's suid bit.

Yeah, it is somewhat amusing, I was just posting about the auto replies that started coming today. I think they need to pay Dexter nicely and give him one of each tablet they plan to release. He's given their product more support than they have and doesn't even own one.

I was wondering why Gameloft has a problem with android market bc yesterday I bought a game via my Galaxy Tab and they took it out of my paypal but I never got the game and now I have sent them two emails and have to call them tomorrow and I am like 85% sure this would not have happened with the Android market.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] AlexTheStampede:
Out of curiosity, did you read the license for the games purchased from their site? You can only re-download a game on the same phone you bought it (and same sim-phone number), and only for 3 years. Not sure if i remember well, but it might even had a limit of how many times you can download a game!

I would never ever buy anything from their site.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
Yea, I wasn't going to buy from their website at first, but then I figured I was just being paranoid and bought it, and now I am out $5...Well, I guess thats what I get for trying to buy something from them legitly(if thats even a word...)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
Legitimately is what you're after ;)

There is an upper size limit on apps from the marketplace, currently 50MB I believe, by offering applications directly they can bypass this limit. For example, NFS:Shift is roughly 120MB and Asphalt:HD is just on 100MB. I'm pretty sure both download additional data to the SD Card as well.

Other games have a small client and just download a mass of extra data (e.g. that shadow souls or whatever that new RPG game is called that downloads ~1GB of data), so they could adopt that method, presumably they choose not to.

They also probably want a bigger cut of the profits by charging directly, they'd probably have much better exposure in the marketplace though.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
Legitimately thats it....

Update with them: They sent me the games that I wanted(spider-man hd, dungeon hunter hd(buy one get one free)) and created me an account after I called them and explained my mistake so it was cool...

Until the bug in the game spider-man hd where it wont load the stage called, "Mystery Infection Strikes City" so I called them and they said to keep spider-man hd on my tablet and they should be issuing an update in a few months and they sent me a free game(hero of Sparta) for all my troubles.

About them on the market: Well that sucks bc if they were on the market they could issue updates faster; but then again since they have different versions for different devices(for some reason) it may get a bit confusing.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jamiemac1977:
FYI NFS installer is around 20mb (smaller for Ashphalt5HD), the 120 MB is the total after downloading the data once in the game.

So that's not a reason for market avoidance (both NFS and Ashphalt are on the market anyway, least here in the UK and also both are available for free in samsung apps regardless).

I downloaded Spiderman of the site, and evertime i try it i get a "this is not an official copy of spiderman" error and it closes, i have tried over wifi, or 3g, and with the SIM i had at the time of purchase in the tab.

I'm not that bothered about the game though, it was one of my vouchers from the samsung pack anyway. :D

Try plugging into a different USB port, see if that makes it re-detect the phone and install the drivers.

should vibrant drivers work?

im using drivers from samsung website and i tried every usb port on my computer. starting to freak out a little now :\

Open Odin. ALWAYS OPEN ODIN FIRST. Then take out your battery, plug in your phone, and hold down power and the volume rockers. While still holding those 3 buttons down, put battery back in and it should show up immediately

What are some good augmented reality apps available for Android?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] WoefulDerelict:
As this silly little phone was supposed to be a fun, limited edition and it’s gotten so little attention and love from T-Mobile and the Dev community I’d like to request a favour. As we seem to have no real RUU and there are users who are looking to return their Fender back to stock 1.6 after rooting it via a goldcard it stands to reason a mock SAPPIMG would be rather nice.

After a search on how we might obtain the original splash screen after K’Tag and kpertrie started piecing the Fender ROM back together my search lead me to http://www.telesphoreo.org/pipermail/g1-hackers/2009-January/000481.html and http://www.telesphoreo.org/pipermail/g1-hackers/2009-January/000481.html While old, not having a great deal of familiarity with the Android platform, I found them remarkably enlightening. From what I read it seems the platform is hiding it’s SPL, Radio and Splash image in a section of the NAND outside of the partitioned space.

As I understand it a relatively simple kernel hack will allow that space to be mounted and then dumped. From this dump one can then extract the original SPL, Radio and Splash. First off, I’d love for experienced hackers to weigh in on the truth of that and to request some assistance from those more familiar with the kernel and platform in producing these. I’m hoping there is someone who is familiar with the boundaries of these hidden partitions so that one doesn’t have to step through the dump to find them.

I apologize if this is misdirected but, this as I’m asking for help developing and compiling a kernel for a platform I know little about pointing this at developers seemed the most appropriate audience. The one thing this really hinges on is an absolutely pure Fender in the wild with an owner who is willing pull the data off for us. One step at a time is best I suppose. Anyone willing to help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] WoefulDerelict:
Clarity...

For the sake of clarity, the image leaked on XDA in the following thread IS NOT for the Fender. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=665814 The general consensus seems to be that it was simply an earlier version of the software that shipped on the MyTouch 1.2. This image contains neither the original Fender Splash or any of the music apps that shipped with the device. A simple dive into the System.img of any proposed stock Fender image and looking for Solo.apk is a relatively easy way to spot software for the Fender. From what I've read the Fender shipped with a build number of 2.08.531.1. To the best of my knowledge and the knowledge of other Fender owners no image for this device exists in the wild.

What I'd like help with is compiling a patched kernel, as I am not at all familiar with the code base, that would allow a user to dump the unpartitioned section of the NAND and, if anyone happens to know the structure of this section so I don't have to step through it, some help dividing the dump up into usable images Fender users can flash to their devices to return them to an absolute stock device would be greatly appreciated by myself and all Fender owners.

Yes, I also realize we won't be able to properly sign a SAPPIMG and that the product will likely be something that must be flashed through custom recovery but, it's the idea I'm after. A complete image of the Fender so users can return their devices to the stock, shipped software.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
So you're looking for an original RUU as opposed to a simple way to unroot? I've always heard that the original SAPPIMG for 32b works fine on the fender.

Link to a known good copy in my sig. If that link is down let me know and I'll upload it from my hard drive.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] WoefulDerelict:
Not exactly...

People aren't just looking for a way to unroot, they are looking for a way to recover the lost 'Fenderness' of their phone. Goldcard rooting obliterates the Original splash image and so do subsequent attempts to unroot using other images. People weren't just looking to unroot, they wanted to be able to get OTAs and recover their original, Fender splash image.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it can't be done because the "official" Fender hasn't and an in honesty won't be available. You're best bet is to just deal with it. It's not like you weren't warned before you modified your device in the first place.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
Gotcha, that's what I thought you meant. Didn't realize you can't get otas. :(
