Sorry, these are HTC phones. The current batch of HTC WP7 phones all had nice renders but when people got hands on them they were found to have subpar screens, poor batteries, poor performance due to slow sd cards, poor cameras, low storage amounts. Why anyone is getting excited over more HTC renders of basically slightly restyled models is beyond me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
Hmm. u ever holded hd7 in your hand?
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
I own one and won't touch it for exactly the reasons he listed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
oh ok.. good luck with next phones
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
I owned one for about a week before I exchanged it for a Omnia 7. While the bigger screen on the HD7 was nice the quality of it was beyond a joke (my previous HD2 was much better). HTC just aren't what they used to be IMO.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Now I do not know if resistive screen technology has changed since I last used one in 2009, but aren't capacitive screens "more responsive" to things like swipes, since it reacts to electrical charges from your fingers as opposed to screen contact under pressure?

I just cannot see resistive being a technology of choice with the direction OSes went with navigation. Long lists of programs that require scrolling. Home screens.

I dunno.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
This from someone using the most busted of wp7 phones, the dvp, which looks pretty and sits well in your hand, but is a buggy POS.

Anyone using a dell phone and talking trash about htc quality has some issues.
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
Though I've had absolutely zero issues with the Dell Venue Pro I'd take wifi freezes over a schotty screen, poor build quality, and slower startup of all apps. The DVP is quality, HTC functions... barely. I have no problem admitting the 16 gig was crap due to a crap micro SD but the phone itself is just amazing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] imaginarynumber:
At the risk of being shot down- I prefer the accuracy of resistive screens.

There are often times when I need to be able to sketch images on site (using the stylus or my fingernail)- granted the image quality will always be slightly lower but I want a functioning work tool rather than a video player...

WRT scrolling etc- Never had any problems with truFlo etc on resistive screens.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
you can hate all you want to on the hd7, but facts are facts and the hd7 has sold more units, with less failures than the dvp. I really wanted it.... until it was delayed, and delayed again, still barely making it over to Europe 5 months later...

Dell really had a chance to make a name for themselves, and shot themselves in the foot instead.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
Now I am not saying you are wrong, but just wondering how you know what the failure rates are for the HD7 and the Dell Venue Pro?

I have heard some bad things about the HD7 screen and I am seeing them for cheaper and cheaper on the internet (even cheaper than the other HTC 7 phones). I can't say I see much of the Dell.

I do not know why sales are ever mentioned to justify quality. Sales are proof of popularity and not proof of quality.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
You cant fix a crappy screen, or tiny battery with a patch, at least with the DVP there may be a fix for its issues. I think people defending the subpar crap that HTC currently calls its WP7 lineup are the ones with issues.
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
HD7 is awesome ,and about ignite... its gonna be even better
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
The difference between hardware issues and software issues is hardware issues cannot be fixed OTA. Is HTC going to airmail you a keebler elf with a new volume rocker, a new power button, a new screen, new capacitive buttons, etc? I mean by your logic since some people have issues with the DVP all DVPs must be faulty. Applying the same logic your phone doesnt have a working button on it and is still stuck with low quality hardware.
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
I kinda lost u there, but i still think that HTC can affor having bugs in some of their phones, hey they put out more than 15 phones per year, its up to you to choose, personally im in love with Pyramid currently
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
nah. they release the same phone over and over with a better processors.
[Windows Phone 7 General] markomarkogame:
thats kind off true, but we will se about this ones

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkyy:
I think he wants the desktop to look like Windows (Phone?) 7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Speakershock:
I think its called Launcher 7, you can find it on the market. Correct me if i'm wrong!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcarr622:

Yeah my guess he wants the Windows Phones 7 look, in that case Launcher7 from the Market is the way to go, works pretty well.

Vague questions FTW

I think he is seriously looking at Windows 7 Professional that we run on our desktops to run on our sgses. And not a bad idea, only problem is how will the phone architecture support x86!

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AspenTree:
Okay I won't be using my desktop for a while for personal reasons. So I have astro file manager as my text/extracting/zipping tool. Also I have this app called zipsigner for signing my zips after I do minor edits to my zip's files.

My questions are:

What is the correct key/mode for signing zips using zipsigner so that the zip will be flashable?

Any other tools (apps) I should download or buy from market to develope my rom better than doing simple text file editting?

Can I extract apk files using my phone?

Can I extract boot.img using my phone?

Thanks everyone ;)

I'm trying to expand my developing options from my phone from being just text file edits to something more lol

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkabia:
Hey guys!

i bought a DHD 1 month ago, i was pretty satisfied with it!:)

but one day the screen had "layers" of fat on it, so i wanted to clean it..

i used a normal house window cleaner on it.

sprayed it on the screen arround 30 CM away from the screen and i wiped it off

the screen was as good as new!

but one ouhr later i noticed some darker spots on the screen!

i didnt accually care.. i thought it would dry away .. but it didnt (the spots didnt spread either.)

but the next day i was listening to music, then i noticed that the volume keys didnt work (the volum + key is frozen) so the music was always turned on maximum.

so i think the cleansing fluid made my phone wet from inside... is it a way to fix this?

(ive already sendt it in to a workshop they refuse to fix it because its not in the warrnty)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
How much had you actually paid for your DHD? And you seriously thought you would save a fortune by NOT buying mobile screen cleanser??? I salute your decision mate ;)

There has been talk of putting your phone in a bag of rice to remove the moisture. Another would be using kittly litter but I'd go with the rice idea.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
Sorry gotta post in English as it it's the rule. I do not know if you can buy parts of it (which you can i guess). But then the problem would be replacing it. I saw some advertisements about guys who fix mobiles on finn.no back sometime. So you might want to check there.

Btw, it has not passed a year since DHD was released and you say there is no warranty? That surprises me even more. If warranty is void because of the custom ROM, flash the original RUU and send it back in.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul c:
The best bet is to dry the phone out as much as possible, as suggested above. I would place it 10-15cm above a radiator, so that it gets plenty of heat, but not too much. Take all the covers off so that the heat can enter as much as possible.

Moisture is the first thing they look for, which obviously voids warranty. I did the above for an iPod that got wet in a downpour and stopped working - and they exchanged it for me :). But this was only rainwater.

If the goo from the spray has stuck electronics components together, that will probably invalidate the guarantee - BUT at this point your best bet is to get someone qualified, who can actually clean recondition the phone, even if it costs you money. As it stands, your phone sounds worthless, so if it can be functional again, that is a necessary cost.

Imagine, you may see goo inside the phone that you know that you should remove, but how are you to know if any components are failing and need replacing? A tech service centre does this many times a day.

At least, they should give you an estimate, so you can decide whether to go ahead.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkabia:
*****************UPDATE****************':o:o

ok.. heres the thing..

sorry for the poor explenation.

i rapped the phone arround a dry towel and sat it uppon a radiator untill it reached arround 60 degrees Celsius.

im now able to turn on the phone, but because of the volume key fail, its only booting on Hboot and nothing else, and im not able to navigate unless i remove the battery cover cearfully and press the volume keys as hard as i can. (it would only mess up the phone over time)

i think (hope) its only a tiny error that can be fixed by replacing the buttons (if its possible
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedayat7:
i'm sorry to hear it. it takes time to remove the moist inside the device. maybe you can do your way on drying the phone more frequenly ( make sure the phone is turn off ). i hope your DHD will become normal again. :(

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colpliscol:
Ever since I installed Serendipity 6.2 on my captivate (previously running 5.12), my phone hasn't connected to our AT&T MicroCell. Has anyone else seen this issue?

Edit 3-17-11 - I have been able to connect by rebooting my phone. The issue seems to be that if I leave the Microcell coverage area and then return, my phone is not reconnecting to the Microcell. It connects on a fresh boot and will stay connected while I am within the Microcell range.

This never happened before. Is anyone else having issues?

This is an awesome kernel!

Thanks grendel.

Where is your donate button?

:)
[Vibrant Android Development] stevedrz:
Just flashed this new kernel. I mean Duh, winning!

I feel the warlock energy. Now to reduce my voltage...

Update : The uv settings mentioned caused a lockup for me. Does anyone have the list of stock galaxy s voltages? I remember it being posted in another thread at some point...
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
The kernel is set to stock voltages by default. If you did not tell it to "Set on boot", then on reboot it should go back to stock. If you did tell it to set on boot, then you can Select menu--Revert settings and it should take you back to stock.

The stock voltages are :

1000 =1275 mV

800 = 1200 mV

400 = 1050 mV

200 = 950 mV

100 = 950 mV

Very nice kernel. Thanks man. Running great

Fantastic work sir....next time im in the mood to recondition my battery i will DEFINITELY be flashing this. thanks for the new content!
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
Overstock is not a ULF kernel, so you should be fine.

+1

Looks great but just not up for the battery reconditioning again at the moment. Probably by tomorrow lol ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Sym_Link:
Red recovery means you have Voodoo, not necessarily ULF. Dead Horse is ULF, most others are Voodoo only, except maybe some kernels from a few months back

[Droid 2 Global General] insanity213:
A buddy of mine has a Droid 2 Global as a personal phone and an AT&T crackberry from his employer. With a turbo sim or other unlock method is it possible to be on both networks at the same time with the D2G? He wants to be able to receive voice calls from either network and use Verizon for his data. He's just sick of having to carry around 2 devices when oncall.

I've already got him rooted and on Fission, but I'm not very familiar with this device as I'm an Epic user.
[Droid 2 Global General] larrybagina:
No, you can only use CDMA or GSM, not both at the same time.
[Droid 2 Global General] Asphyx:
And even if you could, Verizon locked out all US GSM carriers.
[Epic 4G General] gregory15:
So, there are some people here more/less technical than others ... I'm LESS technical (well, i'm actually an IT guy - but not a droid guru like some of you'enz).

I made up a wiki entry for how to manually edit the init.d files for some end users how may not want SETCPU (overclock) OR who may just not understand how to do it.

here's how I did it:

http://wp.me/pPiFl-1thttp://wp.me/pPiFl-1t

I don't know how to do the wiki thing on XDA with pictures ... so, sorry. So, if that's against the rules just delete me and yell at me. Also, please check over it and let me know if I can improve this process.

It's meant, honestly, to help people get the overclocking done simply and give back to the community. THANKS!!!!

Droid 2, rooted, Fission 2.6.1 Black Edition installed through FRM 1.2.4

I have recently become addicted to learning all the in's and out's of my D2.

I have read several forums and posts regarding the Android Market updates, and I believe there is a version 2.3.3 or maybe 2.3.4. I have version 2.2.7.

Has the update for the D2 come through? If so, is it worth updating from 2.2.7 to another version? I haven't been able to come across any threads pertaining to the D2.

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Nook Color General] shaxs:
I am loving my Nook Color. Using it to replace a laptop and books I take with me on plane trips for movies and reading.

I am running 1.1 Stock and Auto Nootered. I have my file re-encoded for playing on the Nook and they look great. Problem is with sound all the way up and using my noise canceling headphones, the sound is not quite as loud as I would like.

Is there a way to increase the sound output to the head phone jack?
[Nook Color General] comdei:
See this is an entirely different science.

Often, both noise canceling headphones and high quality headphones require a certain about of ohm's to power them. Many people even use headphone amplifiers to amplifier the amount of ohms the headphones recieve, which in turn boosts the volume.

Most players(like ipod) have artificial amplifiers built into the DAP(digital audio processor)

The Nook was made as an ereader. it doesn't have a powerful DAP. On some phones they have a dedicated headphone/headset amp which you can crank up.

The nook doesn't.

Therefore, the sound is quiter on these headphones.
[Nook Color General] shaxs:
Thanks for the great feedback! So it seems like something like http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2732095 should work well? I need local-ish as I am heading on a plane Saturday.
[Nook Color General] Jgrimoldy:
I was suffering the same problem. I could barely hear my NC when playing a movie while on the treadmill at my local gym. I bought a tiny little amp about the size of an iPod nano (Amazon for about $20). It turns out that it doesn't bump the volume up all that much. It's enough for my needs, but would not be enough for a plane trip. The little Radio Shack amp you linked to should work. As long as it you only turn it up to say, 5 or 6 (out of an assumed 10), and it's VERY LOUD (while sitting on your couch), that should give you sufficient headroom for a plane trip.

I recall reading a thread at this site about a kernel that would allow you to bump up the native volume. There's been sooo many kernels and updates that I can't recall which one did the trick...
[Nook Color General] shaxs:
I was thinking about this one: http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E5-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B001P9EQH8/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Where else will they be selling the WiFi only version?

I am thinking about returning my 3G Verizon Xoom for the WiFi version. The WiFi tethering of my EVO makes the contract and cancellation fees a little silly. I know that in a year I will want what is newer and faster and thinner, so signing up for the Verizon Contract is scaring me a little bit.

I'm looking at the specs in BHPhoto website and it doesn't say anything about the GPS capability.
