Yea i have to admit i love my Streak 7..battery life on my Archos 70 was better but oh well ..i think i'm going to keep this tablet & get the Xoom too (for home use) as the Streak 7 is more portable.but idk...
[Dell Streak 7] slave-zeo:
Im really pleased with my Streak 7. I use it everyday and my kids use it even more. MY main complaint is a lot of apps aren't updated for the tegra 2 chipset yet. Especially games.

The battery is a non issue as I charge it every chance I get. Just like I do my mobile phone.

The screen is not bad at all, only thing is the screen looks fuzzy with older games, non native resolution i guess. Newer ones look great.

I'm happy with it. One of the best $199.00 i've spent.
[Dell Streak 7] Hellzya:
Couldnt agree more. If you look past the battery its a great device.

Wait it has a Tegra 2?? man if it does i really want one. payed with it and it was really nice. so much lighter than my 10 inch G tablet. 40 a month is steep but it includes wifi sharing so its kinda worth it.
[Dell Streak 7] stacyh:
I just ordered mine after looking at the fine print on the Xoom. It is not flash certified, and the SD card slot does not work. 4G upgrade will be free to the orginal purchaser only sometime in the future.

Too many ifs , buts and future promises.

I have a Streak 5, he could use a bigger brother.

Love my Streak 7... battery life isn't great, but I don't see what all the complaints are regarding the screen resolution. It doesn't have great viewing angles, but what LCD does?

A real bargain and I love it!
[Dell Streak 7] RootaToota:
It's very nice

I love my Dell Streak. I was hunting this tablet for a month and bought it Feb 2nd on release day.

Battery life is not too bad if you have a widget to turn off data and wifi. When I open my tablet, if not using it for music or text, I'll quickly turn on data, check my e-mail and social networks, then turn it back off.

My benchmarks are consistently 1850++ on stock OS.

I rooted it within a few hours of purchase taking a chance and it no longer let me save pics or alter anything. No restore in any form would work- even with Dell's ''expert" techs.

Seeing how Quadrant is not made for Dual- Core or 2.2 Android, it spanked the test...

If it is supposedly at 800 MHz, then it's even more remarkable.

My Stock Glacier on 2.2 with 1660 Quadrant @ 1 GHz...

Later Rooted/S-Off - CM7 2.3 with 1761 Quadrant @ 1 GHz

I bought it for Hardware reasons. It charges fast with a 2 amp Charger.

NEEDS SOFTWARE BAD THOUGH. Lol.

Get mine today

Can't wait to get mine today. FedEx says it is out for delivery.

Been wanting a larger tablet and my wife has the Streak 5. Great screen, but it is too big for a phone. So I plan to use this as a tablet only and wasn't bothered that it didn't have phone ability.

Glad too that it is not Honeycomb for now. I use my EVO for Kindle and there is no Kindle App for Honeycomb. Hopefully by the time the Dell 7 is ready for an upgrade to Honeycomb there will be a Kindle App.

Looking forward to some of the same dev work that is available for my EVO!

Hi everyone!

Here's my third SplashScreen, it's about the HD2 and what for a masterpiece it is...:cool:

Note: You don't know how to install? No, problem! Turn the device off, then hold the Volume-Down-Button and the power button. Now it should show a tricolored screen.

Connect the device to the computer and run the executable (CustomRUU), press all "Next" Buttons and voilà!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] mideel:
Thanks for your effort.

Anyway, it would be more nice if you would remove your writing or choose another Font. It doesnt fit well there^^
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] the_hd2_cracker:
Done! The zip file is now online, too!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] tullisgood:
More info please:)

I noticed there are two files that could be the image in the zip file.

a .nb and a .nbh file.

If I made my own bmp file (bitmap) and renamed them to those specific names

splashscreen_wp7.bmp.nb

splashscreen_wp7.bmp.nbh

will it install my own made splash screen? or is there a specific program needed to

created the .nb and .nbh files.

thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] anrabi4:
Lol...

If you renamed iPhoneApp.ipa to iPhoneApp.xap and deploy it, do you think it would work?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] optyqus:
Seriously, no offence... but this splash screen is just... ugly :o I mean, the orange background+the black HD2+the green text with boring font is not the greatest combination. Just look at it! If I were you I would have kept it for myself ;) But hey, thanks for the efforts and maybe next time you bring a better one:)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Themes and Apps] the_hd2_cracker:
Okay...let's be honest...it's not my best...

But I'm working on a SplashScreen with the cookie monster, maybe this one can interest you?

If samsung were smart they would not have hyped up a issues thread and they would have payer attention to all of the questions they've been hit by on twitter and come with a statement. Is that really that hard or did they just wanna poll how many angry users they still have.
[Captivate General] wonder186:
I'm curious how hard the XDA staff was laughing as SamsungJohn contacted them to make the huge announcement.

I bet Samsungjohn called frantic to have XDA shutdown the thread because it was going down in flames.
[Captivate General] fooldog01:
What's really amusing is when you look at what has happened over the past 3 days or so. Man, they REALLY did stir up an absolute frenzy. Hundreds and hundreds of posts in multiple threads and it accomplished absolutely nothing but re-igniting a lot of burning anger that had simmered down quite a bit since 2010. I visualize it as poking a stick into a fire ant hill then watching the ticked of buggers go nuts. Such a shame.
[Captivate General] clemmie:
I think it had a lot more to do with the aggressive and adversarial way people asked non-questions, like trying to get people on twitter and fb to trash the whole process. If people treat someone like crap, when they come here to try and solve problems, what is the motivation to help us?

Mob mentality won't solve anything folks. You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

[Nook Color General] holleboom:
A lot of the people with Honeycomb on their Nook love the browser (and it's Lab-feature 'Quick Controls'). However, the user agent string displays it capabilities as a phone. Therefore, most websites load as a mobile website or as desktop site when a mobile version is not available.

I found a trick to spoof the useragent as a iPad, with the stock browser. I've read is elsewhere on this forum and found out that it works on a Nook Color with HC too.

Step by step instructions

Open browser

Enter url: 'about:debug' and press enter

Open menu (right top), go to settings > debugging (3rd item)

Press 'UAString' and select 'iPad'

Now for example, go to gmail.com and see the tablet (read: ipad) optimized version of GMail. There are a lot of sites optimized for iPad, so you can have a great tablet experience with this simple trick, without having to switch to alternate browsers like Dolphin HD.

[Thunderbolt General] BigBonkers:
I just saw a video on Engadget stating that The netflix app need PRE-INSTALLED keys on a snapdragon chip. And if thee keys arent installed by OEM you cant play netflix on the phone.

Way to go Android!!

I guess iphone has had the keys for a year now! Wow Steve Jobs has these companys by the balls!

Fragmentation sux!!! Now im second guessing getting the thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
The TB isn't even out yet so don't make assumptions, besides I'm sure it still possible in the long run
[Thunderbolt General] BigBonkers:
Check the video on engadget. Also the app is months away. So it 100% the keys arent installed. The guy in the video clearly states that the HTC EVO cant do Netflix!

HUGE BUMMER!!! Windows Phone 7 has netflix and with a 00001% user base but android doesnt???

Come on man!!
[Thunderbolt General] ska.t73:
The app not being out yet has nothing to do with the keys being installed or not. Qualcom has stated that there chips will support Netflix, not sure where you are getting that the keys will "100% not be installed".

Also the chip in the EVO is completely different from the one in the TB. The TB has the 2nd Gen SnapDragon. So the EVO not being able to do Netflix has nothing to do with the TB being able to do it or not.
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
The problem with Android is it may be less secure, you know with people hacking apps and flash, help we have hulu for free on Android because of it so maybe netflix is a bit weary
[Thunderbolt General] Chopstick2U:
I remember a quote saying that qualcomm chips would be the first to see Netflix on android. I imagine it's possible that they've been installing the required keys on the latest processors, but that kind of forward-thinking benevolence doesn't seem very realistic, unfortunately.
[Thunderbolt General] BigBonkers:
Its just heart breaking man. I really dont give a snot about netflix but its the point....i want the option. WP7 doesnt deserve it!!!!
[Thunderbolt General] ska.t73:
I would think though that they have been talking about this since it was in development, this has probably been in development for a year or two at least. I don't think Netfix is going to release an app for android without the phones to support it. That would be horrible for business, you would want the most amount of people possible to be able to use your product.
[Thunderbolt General] BigBonkers:
Its the fragmentation and Androids unwillingness to protect The DEV's products with DRM and such
[Thunderbolt General] Chopes:
What is the big issue with hulu and netflix? Surely there are alternate places to get your TV show fix since we have flash enabled, right?

[Thunderbolt General] gemro311:
According to the spec sheet, I picked up today from Verizon, VOD will include Blockbuster.
[Thunderbolt General] kenyu73:
Netflix only requires DRM security on the chipset which the TB has. However, I dont think Froyo supports DRM as the DRM SDK/API is only available on Gingerbread and Honeycomb. I dont know if there's a software work-around for this though. I'd expect the TB to have Gingerbread by summer and Netflix is still a few months out from release anyhow... plenty of time...
[Thunderbolt General] BigBonkers:
Actually i think netflix streams a video........blockbuster app downloads it then plays it. I had it on my droid x....you pay per flick..... its not a monthly thing.... Complete garbage and the wait was horrible.
[Thunderbolt General] Robertjm:
CHOPES: That's not the issue. Absolutely there are other places which are...dubious at best. The issue is that Android (meaning Google) doesn't want to stand up to the MPAA who are putting pressure on Netflix to make sure the environment is locked down against all us "thieves" out there. ;-)

It's the same attitude that linux users, myself included, have to battle all the time. Just because we choose to use an OS that's not there's and some people have busted their copy protection that means all of us will do that.

I'd blame delays in the software development as much as on the handset development. I would sure hope that ANY 4G phone would be capable of streaming Netflix eventually even if they currently aren't.

[Thunderbolt General] ncobs:
I would agree that once the software is sorted out the TB oughta be able to do it. this article http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/16/lg-revolution-dumps-tegra-2-chooses-1ghz-snapdragon-msm8655-ins/ says that lg used the Revolution as their phone to demo Netflix, AND it is using the exact same Snapdragon (MSM8655) that's in the Thunderbolt, so it seems to me that the Thunderbolt should have the DRM stuff in the chipset too :D.

2) Some people come in here and laugh at people who want to play games on their "phone" and say that's what a PSP or DS is for....

Really, it isn't just a "phone" or everyone here, including you, would own a standard flip phone. We buy and pay for these phones to get the MOST that we can out of them. We want a do-it-all phone... or at least the best that current tech can provide.

10 years ago, people were paying $200+ for portable 4-5" TV players.

With all your posts, I cant believe you'd come crashing into this thread so harsh-like.

edit: ALSO you're a rom builder, the elite of users who want the most of their phone... that makes your harsh statement that must more odd and confusing.

[Thunderbolt General] jyoung946:
for your information the thunderbolt will get netflix. when they released the info saying newer snapdragon processors would get the right DRM keys in february and the thunderbolt now came out in May. the evo and all HTC devices currently out other than the thunderbolt will not be able to recieve netflix as they were all given older processors while the thunderbolt was given at the last minute the newest processor that happens to be the exact same one in the LG revolution. in another report netflix stated that th processor in the Revolution and subsequently the thunderbolt wil have these DRM keys written into it. thus the thunderbolt is apart of the newer processsor family having a 1.4 gHz processor but underclocked to 1GHZ to allow better reliability via battery and stability. although it does have a bad battery it is a bigger processor with alot of potential.

the thunderbolt has been tested for netflix but just hasnt been given the rights via netflix just OEM. when the Revolution comes out then netflix will n=most likely allow the thunderbolt to stream. netflix is deciding to add supportby phone model not android in general so the revolution gains support first and the thunderbolt gets marked obsolete until the market place ap gets support for the thunderbolt.

The iphone and windows phone 7 do not require these DRM keys as they have certain security measures put in place to provide stability to the phone but lowers the personalization of the user interface that the android has and iphone lacks.

WP& and iphone are very basic OS's and have been given the keys for the provider and manufactorurs use. windows uses it to lock many options for subscription thus making it impossible fort many things and iphone is the same. thunderbotl is open source and has a free flowing bios in the sense that it has more options for tweaks and hacks. thus more popular in the long run for developers and kids that want their phone to be "their" phone.

so stop B*&^in about not having netflix and whether iphone or WP7 is better cause its not. they may be popular now but android has more potential to last becasue they can allow obsolete hardware to update with the way the OS is implemented. iphone and wp7 will diminish its popularity as soon as people et bpred wiht not being able to have simple yet revolutionary interface as iphone would have to completely re write its registry to add more personalization.
[Thunderbolt General] gohamstergo:
that was a big post. sure hope youre right :) sounds likely tho.
[Thunderbolt General] jyoung946:
i have done a whole bunch of research on whether netflix works on it or if it will and i have seen mutilple spots that post stating that newer snapdragon processors will work with netflix and those posts themselves were from february and thus the thunderbolt has the newer processor especially since the LG revolution with native netflix comes out on the 13th of this month has the same exact processor as the thunderbolt gives us the ability for netflix. i have installed and tested netflix on the thunderbolt and it just states that it is obsolete. the processors are the exact same so they will definately have netflix for thunderbolt... just nobody go to any of these new dual core if you want netflix as so far no snapdragon dual cores are being planned for production.

Qualcomm makes all of their processors according to one molding and the entire structure of their processor requires certain keys that cannot be cooked in at the last second. when they built the processor in the thunderbolt they had a specific idea in mind and due to certain regulations and price quotas they build them to the specs required even for future plans. once they build a processor model they cannot add or remove from it without making it a newer model. thus since the DRM keys are built into the MSM8655 processor is the one put into the lg and the tbolt and many says the MDM9600 is in the thunderbolt and that is just the processor used for the 4G radio. the MDM is reuired for the radio so it can regulate when to turn on and off since i=this is the first phone with a true dual radio and 4G. the Qualcomm website states that the MSM8655 has DRM keys requored for media support such as netflix and HULU plus. thus since it was nuilt into that then it is in the tbolt and now the lg revo. not the droid charge or bionic as motorola and hummingburd processors are too open for these keys to safely exist so netflix will not add support until they make their processors more secure.

all in all netflix will come to the thunderbolt for sure and this entire dilema proves snapdragon is better even if its not neccesarily as fast.

Who is "they" and where exactly did they say this?

Where did Netflix say this?

This seems to contradict what the Qualcomm person said at the MWC about the OEM option:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/15/android-powered-lg-revolution-caught-streaming-netflix-at-mwc-v/

Where does the Qualcomm website say this?

I haven't looked into this for a couple of months, so maybe more has been said by Qualcomm, HTC, and Netflix lately. But it was not at all certain as of the launch of the ThunderBolt in Mid-March.
