You know in all this time you could have just tried them both.

OMG REALLY?! I never knew that!

So I spent all this time waiting for an answer where I could have just tried them out? REALLY?! OMG!

No harsh feelings. Reasons being I believe no one can tell you what you will like or not, for we are not you.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] phillipchai:
The only reason that anyone will go for the ddesire hd build is sense 2. If you feel that you simply cannot go without sense, by all means, desire hd. Just so to note that sense is also sense.com experience and all those.

gingerbread is nice, I am using it now, and seriously, not missing much of sense.

Also, stock GB will probably gives you more space compared to Desire HD as Desire HD build comes with sense, and that takes up space.

But end of the day, try both and decide for yourself as both build is rather mature till date.

If it was 2 months ago, I will suggest to go with a Desire HD as there were still a few things that are missing from the GB port.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dream_kazt:
i personally love the stock builds and dislike the sense ones but its all depends on what you want ... just make a list of good things and bad things which ever has the most good things wins ???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brockyneo:
Hi guys thanks for comments trouble is I have tried them both and carnt decide so I was wondering what advantages one has over other so I can say yea that's for me lol :D must say at moment only thing I miss in gingerbread is the desire hd camera

I was the stock ROM with my epic rooted ( so i could use wifi hotspot). I got a notice saying 2.2 was finally available, clicked install now and my phone downloaded and then restarted. Then it said install failed and gave me the option to reboot now.

thoughts on how to get froyo working?

[Epic 4G General] babystewie:
Supposedly , it might be because the root deleted thbe bloatware. I reinstalled all te bloatware ad tried themanual install and it failed. I think you have to remove root and reset phone to stock
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Samsung.exe

Its a pain...but once it updates the phone and you unplug it, its root galore! :D
[Epic 4G General] the_bj:
will I lose all my apps and date files on my phone?
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Yeah. That's why I said its a pain :(
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Its basically odin

It puts it into factory settings and th flashes for a clean install
[Epic 4G General] klownin816:
If you used one click root, and it deleted the Asphalt Demo, give this a shot. Also take a look at richse's post. This will keep you from having to wipe off your phone completely.

Use Backup to gmail to save your phone log and sms. Use tb or my backup to save your files and data. Odin to eb13 (get .exe file from samsung, install on windows, find .tar file in folder) and do your restores. Restoring data across different firmware is sometimes eventful.
[Epic 4G General] Z a p i x:
as Klownin says, it's probably the asphalt demo missing. Why they have it set to remove that app when it's known to cause issues in the future with updates is beyond me. Should be left there for the user to back it up and remove it much like all the other crap is left!

99.999% sure the missing demo is your issue, and it can be fixed :)
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
To be fair, having clockworkmod in the one-click also breaks updates. If the updates are going to be broken already, why not remove useless files?

Get the cwm flashable eb13 from this thread and flash it with clockworkmod. It will update you from di18->eb13. You don't need to reinstall asphalt. You won't lose your apps and settings.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dochill4u:
Hello all,

I had to post this here since I dont have 10 posts yet, but I think I have found a bug related to Shed's gingerbread (v. 1.6). Well either that or something is wrong with my Eris. I have attempted to view the animated gif weather radar located at mobile.weather.gov/radarhl.php?radar=kbuf but it doesn't work. Can anyone verify this and let me know the results / possible fix? Thanks for the help!

PS - Shed your skills are amazing. Keep up the great work! :D

PSS - Sorry the link isnt a link above but my post level wont allow for links either. :(
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smileythom:
I am at GSB v1.4 and I can see a radar map of buffalo, but it doesn't seem to be animating. Same thing happens for kvbx (Vandenberg AFB, CA).

I'm not sure it is a bug, it might just be a limitation on the software and/or hardware. Animated gif support is only recently supported as I recall and might not be at all on our hardware.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Super_Dork_42:

The loop radar on mobile.weather.gov don't work for me either, but the animated radar on mw.weather.com does work.

Rooted OTA 2.1 Eris - soon to be Gingerbread.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dochill4u:
I can see the same thing as you, radar picture with no animation. It was working on my phone at one point so I don't think it is hardware related. I cant remember if it was when I was running XTRAsense or Sheds GB v1.2.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Super_Dork_42:
No problem dude. It was just a few days ago when I couldn't post to that thread. I tried to make a thread for those that have fewer than 10 posts could post a question and if someone else wanted to they could quote it to there. It got deleted within five minutes because, while technically not against forum rules, it is loopholing them. Oh well, I can still do it if I want.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dochill4u:
I understand why they did that, but I really wish that there was a way I could post directly into that thread. I think that I might get more of a response if it was where it should be. I really want to know what the problem is.

Hey guys I understand all the hype right now surrounds CM7 and all the ports for that coming out.

However that being said I used to own an HTC Aria and I used to love Cyanogen and all of his work.

I was wondering if anyone has any idea if this is:

a. Works

b. Is still being developed

i. A newer build out

c. If youve used it.

The rom definately works , but ive had problems with making the internal SD work (where you edit the vold.fstab) file , which made me Odin back to Stock then Paragon .

Is there any reason why the Bionix-V-1.2.1 Screen geometry will not be correct on the vibrant? hat I mean is that the active does not fill the whole screen. I have a black bar on the side and on the bottom of the screen.

Any ideas?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] defyuk:
hi all,

heres the deal. i rooted my defy with superoneclick, it worked great.

heres the problem and what i think is the cause but i need a solution!

PROBLEM: i switch my phone on, it starts normally

motoblur screen

then

T mobile screen

then

the normal swipe unlock

i ulnlock it fine but as soon as i do the wallpaper dissapears/goes black. i cannot access any apps. none of the buttons work (menu,home,return/back,search) but the info bar/ menur bar thing at the top that swipes down works fine and what ever is in it works fine i.e when i plug into usb im able to choose portal and tools and those other 3. but when i just leave my phone on lock then press power button/activate unlock screen. it will show normal background with time and everything looks normal.

the CAUSE ( i think )

i was installing apps and deleting motoblur stuff. but it it was one of those two, i isntalled an app and i deleted a file at the same sort of time. the app installed was some startup app killer or a firewall of some type. or it could have been that i deleted an apk file that had a real short name i think, like blur.apk

PLEASE HELP ME. I need a solution FAST its my first smartphone ever and i paid alot for it. if you need my phone info it was

moto defy android 2.1 uk version but then rooted with super one click

THANK YOU IN ADVANCED FOR ANY HELP

ps i have installed rsd lite and it is recognised by it but thats as far as i know what to do...

Hi,

When I open ROM Manager on my Armani i9010 it asks to confirm what Galaxy S model I am using but the i9010 isn't listed.

What should I choose? The Captivate?

Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KonaZXIII:
Yeah- just flash the one for the Captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMathMan:
Cheers.

Should I assume for everything its basically the i897 Captivate? Even though the i9010 code is closer to the Euro Galaxy S?

I assume I'll need to stick with the i897 because of the button layouts?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KonaZXIII:
To be clear- I was speaking only about flashing Clockwork Recovery using ROM Manager. I'm not sure how to answer your second question.

I hope I don't seem rude- I just don't know the answer to that question and I don't want to help you screw up your device. :)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wpstewartjr0421:
I'm a relative newbie at this but I have AMOLED DInc that I rooted about 3 months old. I was trying to flash the CMOD 7 through ROM Manager but after installing and rebooting, it would hang at the splash screen (the HTC white screen). I pulled the battery and then tried to reboot again, same thing. I pulled the battery again and held the vol- with power to get into recovery. I tried to restore the one backup file I had and it just looped back saying no files. I then remembered I had kept a couple of backups on my hard drive. I hooked the phone to the computer but the sd wouldn't mount. I then went into CWM Recovery to mount the USB that way. I was able to pull the SD card up but nothing was on it. I tried copying over my old backups but the message I got was SD card was read only. I then went to format the SD card via the computer and then was able to pull over the files. However, when I go back into CWM Recovery (via the vol- and power), and then to backup/restore, it says there are no files. Anyway to manually flash or install a ROM without having ROM manager and just being able to get into CWM Recovery?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidhudi:
the only way to flash a rom is through CWR don't use rom manager especially for CM7. boot into recovery if you are able and try to restore one of your old backups. if not. mount your sd card to your computer and put whatever rom you wish on the root of your SDcard once done boot into recovery and DO NOT USE rom manager.scroll to factory reset. and reset. then i usually use caulkins format tool i keep a copy on my sdcards root at all times. i do it because apparently it formats the system folder to. then when everything is nice and clean then scroll to apply zip file again then flash the rom( if you want to flash any kernels do that after the rom). then reboot. and crosss your fingers.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wpstewartjr0421:
No luck...

tried that, downloaded virtuous and incredible roms on my mac. Its weird - they say .zip when they're downloading but then show up as folder on my mac. When I moved them to the sd card and attempted to install zip file from sd card, no zip files would show up - just the folders and subfolders and indvidual files... I then "compressed" the folders to create zip files and tried again but it would attempt to install and then abort installation...

I'm guessing I permanently bricked this guy...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
What version of RomManager and CWM are you on/were you running?

ROM Manager offers you a CWM update when you open it to flash an update to the underlying CWM recovery.

When updated, sadly, this is giving people across the community all kinds of trouble when a ROM that doesn't have the 'latest' (according to the developer) scripting techniques in it - as such, much pain is being felt by folk that upgraded to latest CWM and are using ROM Manager to flash.

Once you get your device back working, perhaps flash your CWM version back to something earlier than 3.x - how? Scroll to bottom of menu when in ROM Manager, look for All CWM Recoveries, flash something other than 3.x, like 2.5.1.4.

These ideas are a stretch, but worth a mention/thought:

(prefaced w/ idk much about mac)

Have you tried another SD card?

Did/can you format the SD in the device? I've read mac formatting of SD to FAT32 takes some extra steps if not an additional app on the mac. Can you get to a PC and format the SD on a PC?

fwiw, frequently on PC's, the .zip file extension is not shown ~ is it possible the files on the SD have blah.zip.zip, and are therefore unseen? This is more common that you might think.

All that said, if you can boot device at all, successfully d/l a Virtuous ROM .zip to computer, transfer it to a viable FAT32 formatted SD card, boot into recovery, choose option that says 'select zip file to apply' navigate to the Virtuous zip file, flash it, you may be back in business.

For context, AOSP ROMs (CM7) interact quite a bit w/ the SD card, even during boot - as such, SD issues or wipes or other such things are painful when booting an AOSP ROM when SD is wonky.

[General Accessories] raz1337:
I'm using an HTC Touch Pro 2. It lacks a 3.5mm headphone adapter, so I thought, I'd get a bluetooth headset with A2DP support to get around it. I've bought a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and been using it the last few days, however, I've noticed a few problems:

1) Ringtones don't go directly to the headset. I've fixed this halfway with a mortscript to adjust the handsfree options in the registry. Now my ringtone goes to the headset, but the ringtone that plays in the headset that the headset comes with plays along with my ringtone. Not cool.

2) Half the time when I'm walking around listening to music or in my car on a call, I get my sound dropping in and out or the people I'm on the phone with complain about me breaking up a lot or being static-y. Are there certain things around me that attribute to this? The first thing I had thought was my phone's radio playing into the bluetooth communication with the headset, but I'm just guessing.

I've considered getting a new headset instead, but before I take that plunge, I thought I'd try to gather some input on other perspectives. If I do go for a new set, what are some suggestions for one in the $70-80 price range to start with?
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
This is my first post here, so hello! I have a new Droid X, which I promptly rooted thanks to the helpful posts here. I have put Apex 1.4 on it and love it. My only question is that a quick scan of my local network (on two different machines) shows that port 23 on my phone is open. Not good.

Any ideas why this would be the case? Overlook Fing (available in the market) also shows my phone with an open port 23. Anyone else have this problem, have any ideas about what may have caused it, or how to close it? If it's a standard Linux iptables setup, can I just close it through that?

Both lsof and netstat show nothing (as a matter of fact lsof isn't even found - not part of busybox?).

UPDATE: If this is posted in the wrong spot, can someone tell me where to post it?

Stumped...
[Droid X General] mattmartin77:
maybe a dumb question, but what is port 23?
[Droid X General] jetracer:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=port+23
[Droid X General] craighwk:
It's commonly used for Telnet.
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
That's right. And it should NOT be open. Major security risk. I'm a bit concerned. Anyone else have fing and can tell me if 23 is open on your X too, and if so what rom you're using?

Or can anyone tell me how to close it?
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
A bizarre new discovery; It's only open when I'm on wifi. Completely closed when on 3g.

Even more confused...
[Droid X General] DroidTh3ory:
ApeX 1.4.1 Here... Port 23 closed.
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
Wait, are you saying port 23 is knowingly left open on apex 1.4? Because if you are, ummm...that makes me never want to install Apex again (or frankly any other rom). That's essentially a blatant backdoor into my device.

Are you affiliated with Apex in any official position?

Or is all of this mere observation that you're on Apex 1.4.1, and port 23 is not open? :)
[Droid X General] DroidTh3ory:
Lol, sorry for the quick response. I was posting with regards to your request for any other users using ApeX to scan and report.

Using Fing, I scanned and it shows closed.

No affiliation. :) But... When I first read the post I immediately thought of the port being used by the ApeX Toolbox for the connection to the fabdroid server.

:)
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
Thanks. I hoped that is what you meant, and thanks for responding.

I have run the ApeX toolbox, you think that might permanently open up port 23? Have you run it on 1.4.1? Again, if that's the case, I won't be using ApeX, and neither should anyone else, as that would be a massive security breach and huge privacy violation!

Anyone know a way to get in touch with the developer of ApeX? Does he have a username on here?
[Droid X General] mailman1175:
Hmmm... I'm using Liberty 1.5, but this makes me wonder about port security on other ROMs.

{scurries off to install Fing from the Market}
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
Well, if nothing else, I hope this makes people think. Installing a custom ROM is really a sacred trust. I sort of just assume that if there were problems 'someone' would know about it. But that may not be the case. Kinda scary really, there is so much of our lives on our phones now.

Let me know what you find out.

As of right now, I am still without an answer...
[Droid X General] SharkBaitDave:
I know this doesn't really help your quest for why its open much, but im running leaked 3.4.2 and port 23 is closed.
[Droid X General] thejamhole:
Just came across this, running liberty 1.5 on wifi used network discovery to port scan my phone IP. No open ports. That is kind of scary the amount of trust we put into the developers of these roms. That's why it's good to donate when you come across a real solid one. Liberty 1.5 is the first rom i've ever tried and coming from a stock droid x, i love it. But we kind of crowd source our security when we hope that the hive collective will find something bad and tell the rest of us. Sometimes it works great that way, sometimes it can have disastrous consequences.
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
@shark thanks for replying anyway. I thought there were a bunch of experts here? A little disappointed that a dev or something hasn't chimed in.
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
@thejam thanks for replying. I haven't tried anything but apex. Maybe I should switch. I really don't want to blame the rom though unless I know for sure. It is scary though.

Anyone who has used apex and liberty have a good comparison or link to one?

Doesn't anyone use apex??
[Droid X General] bpocketman:
Anyone?

Anyone?

[Droid X General] thejamhole:
Sorry man Ive been on liberty since I started using custom Roms. What other ports did you find open?
