just wondering what's the name of the company who makes the blue angel??
Robboy
Ever thought of looking at wiki, its the first line of text and it even has a link to the home page.
I can't belive it!!!
But here goes...
HTC
i had seen it somewhere on here just couldn’t remember where. and its always nice to get a sarcastic comment every now and then.
If you need any more info about HTC, here you have their web page:
http://www.htc.com.tw/
Cheers!
I know that we're not really meant to make threads about this, but has anyone considered bombarding HTC with emails demanding WM2005? I'm sure if we brought to light the disturbing amout of faults with this handset (particularly the 75% which appear to suffer from the 'no sound' problem) they may be tempted to release the new software.
Sorry if this has been said a million times.

and? they dont care, they just want to sell more handsets. They are not going to give a **** about software upgrades as it would mean they would not sell as many phones(as you could just update your old one) by doing things this way it means you have to buy a new device if you want wm5. Anyway its not HTCs fault for the **** software (well it is for choosing MS windows in the first place) but unsupriseingly its microsoft who are the ones to blame........
I've had mine 2 weeks tomorrow i am loving it!!!
The only thing is,because i got mine early(unbranded) but with a vodafone contract i am told i can't use the mobile tv or live.vodafone,now i have found a way of accessing live.vodafone(pretty useless) but no options of mobile tv.the advisors tell me i need the voda firmware to use tv? Funny thing is they never said that when they sold/mis-sold me the tv package???
Does anybody know of any other way to access my paid for skysport package?
Regards Rich
Ps Big thanx to everyone on here who develop all the cool stuff and are a big help to most if not all problems!
This is the message i posted on the Rubbish Voda Forum,AND THANX TO THIS FORUM im sorted!!! Just waiting for one of the Great custom Roms that are gonna be about soon(i hope) and i have one very very nice piece of kit...Big Up for The Touch Pro2
OH YEH!!!
You better belive it........Success and with one day to spare before the Ashes starts.
As i sit here writing this message i am watchin SkySports on my crystal clear 3.6inch Touch Pro2 screen. And i must say,i was impressed with my kaizer on T-Mobile mobile tv but from what i've seen so far Voda Wins hand down. The picture is much clearer and the buffering non existant,a very strong connection of over 3.5Mb downlink(in most areas i have been so far).
So apart from the lack of help and the "Do it yourself" attitude i am very pleased with my new Phone and Voda Contract.
Thanx for your Help Neil_Brown You certainly sent me in the right direction,and altho the isp setting i needed were already set in my phone,the thread in the Great Forum Xda Developers is invaluable
Also thanx to DPH
All i needed was a Different Browser and Player With a Few Tweeks on both!
best not say to much on this forum tho as it might be seen as my trying to spoil Vodas exclusivity?
As they said "I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO WATCH MOBILE SKYSPORTS ON MY UNBRANDED PHONE" lol
I am really excited about this application because I enjoyed it so much on my iPhone. However, even though I keep reading that it will be a part of the T-Mobile version of the HD2 I have not found any more information.
Is it a stand-alone application or is it a tab in HTC Sense like we are already seeing with the Borders link? Will I be able to purchase new books through it? What does it look like? Any screen shots or photos yet? Anything more than what T-Mobile has already said?
I am frustrated with the extra steps for getting books on my Nexus One and Touch Pro2 right now. I really want to see something from either Barnes & Noble or Amazon released for Windows Mobile or Android...just something for one of them at least...
They showed it at the T-mobile HD2 launch event this week. My account won't let me post links yet but you can see reviews and pics on CNET and PC Mag.
It's a standalone app, not part of Sense. On the initial version it'll just direct you to the B&N website to purchase books, but they're looking to add in app purchase in a follow-up version.
Cheers

I am not sure if this was mentioned before but I think it would be nice if the phone forums were sorted as you scroll down the website.
First by OS
Then by Manufacturer
Then Alphabetically
or alternatively
First by Manufacturer
Then by OS
Then Alphabetically
As it stands right now you have the iPhone, then a wave of HTCs (some with Android, some with WinMo), then anything goes afterwards. Why are the Aria and the Wildfire lost inbetween some Motorolas and Samsungs?
Am I the only one? I guess people just use the find feature in the browser.
This has been asked many times before
You can always use compact view on 2010 XDA skin and you can see it separated by brand and more options
It kind of makes sense the way it is... i believe that it follows a roughly chronological order, with the newest devices at the bottom.
That is correct

I am not sure how many people think in chronology though. But thanks for the information about the XDA Skin. I never knew about such a feature.
Edit:
ummm where do I find the compact view?

You can find the compact view by going to the forum index and looking for the compact view button at the top (see attached), or by visiting forum.xda-developers.com on your mobile phone.
Seriously, this is one of the WORSE forums i've ever seen, when it comes to structure.
The content, on the other hand, is stupendous. Absolutely brilliant.
Back to the structure again. It's mildly unacceptable.
What beautiful mind came up with these 3 tabs ? "ALL DEVICES" "TOP DEVICES" and "NEWEST DEVICES" ??
Are we serious here? It's gruesome. Why do you guys keep them ?
Ok, let's say the answer is "we like them". Fair enough.
Let's try and search the forums. Holy crap, i have to scroll through a 2x2 list to find my device.
I'll have to blink my eyes SO FAST just to catch up a similar word to my device's name. Let it be
Samsung, Sony, Xperia, Nexus, Motorola or whatever you wish.
Guess what ? I did see the option "search subscribed forums" !! Very convenient...if only i could find out how to subscribe to one.
The structure of the forum looks like a tornado came by and put everything out of place.
Let's see...
General discussion (ok)
Marketplace (ok)
Drums rumbliing...
Windows 8
Windows Phone 7
Windows Phone 8
Windows Mobile
Android Developemnt
...
...
Ubuntu
Firefox (wtf ?)
Chef central (i'm a cook btw)
..
The stupidity begins
HTC Leo
Nexus
HTC Legend
Desire
Supersonic
SONY XPERIA X10
Samsung Captivate
blah blah
Motorola Droid 2
HTC Aria
Motorola Droid X
You get the point.
Why not keep 6 forums and make all the other sub-forums ?
In example
General
Marketplace
Windows ---> Inside this forum all the sub-forums
Samsung --> All Samsung stuff
Sony --- > All Sony stuff
Motorola ---> All motorola stuff
blah blah blah
This website LAGS like watching a movie shot at 1 FPS.
Maybe you can COMPILE a kernel for the website so it won't lag and give us a special button
to "Boost MyXDA" with "Browsing Mode" "Patience Mode" and "Quit Mode".
That's all i had to say. I really don't care if it will have any impact on any aspect of the website.
I'm just speaking my mind. It might look like an endless speech of flame but it is for the best.
Great content whatsoever and you are wasting it.
P.S: Excuse my poor English,as they're not my native language.
Thanks for your time.
-end-
I'm guessing you missed the little box that will take you straight to any device or the alternate layouts?
Sent From My Fingers To Your Face......
Well...anywho, maybe not the worst post to make up your 10.
Also, if you like it, take it..if not, then bye bye. It works for me pretty nicely.

The way he came across may have seemed offensive, however, I consider this as constructive criticism. :angel:
Having designed several successful communities (I know.. every Tom, ****, and Harry think they're a web designer, but hear me out), I have to say I somewhat agree.. On one hand, there are some great features to deal with the organization problems, but on the other, it would take one admin about one day to reorganize the sub-forums without losing any data whatsoever. It's very simple to make your forum more organized, and all forum software I've worked with has that feature.
Nonetheless, as mentioned the forum's highlight is the amazing community, and the amazing content.. The forum works, so why mess with a good thing. *meh*

Yeah, I know, but as you said..its working, and has been for years. Agreed it may be a little unorganized but everyone's gotten used to it, so why change it?
Lol i'm still on the 2010 style.
I have to agree with the OP, the forums (layout wise) are an unorganized mess. The Galaxy S2 and S3 devices alone have like 10 different forums. Sure keep them separated but they should be sub-forums under a main S2 or S3 forum, same goes for other devices of course.
Thanks for the constructive criticism all, we welcome it!!
We actually put a ton of thought into the layout of the forum. We used to have it split up per manufacturer. Guess what, it doesn't make it any easier to browse the forum!
Most people look at one forum - and that is the forum for their device. They don't care about any other devices. We split up forums based on development. For example, the Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII doesn't use the same roms or kernels as the AT&T Samsung Galaxy SIII. Don't blame us or the manufacturers, blame the carriers who make the manufacturers create their own specific versions of their phones.
The best way to find your forum for your device is to use the device search at the top, or the box next to it which will search the entire site. It is pretty good at finding the forum you are looking for when you type in the device name.
I agree that having 2 search boxes is sub-optimal. We have a plan to fix that, but as with most things, its never easy.
Regarding the page load times, a lot of that is out of our hands and caused by the ads. You can switch to the 1024 theme which has fewer ads and loads faster, or contribute enough that we remove the ads for you. We are also considering a paid subscription to remove the ads.
Hope that answers your questions, please keep the feedback coming!
I think what you guys should do is remove all tabs on the front page except General. There's no point in having devices when you have the search box. Also, you can go to the control panel instead of subscribed tab, and compact tab just seems useless to me. Other than the front page I think the site is great.I agreed with this guy on how the front page is. When I first joined here, the site was too busy. Even though I've gotten used to it, it's still looks busy.
New to this forum, can I change the forum home page to have my devices (sgs3 and nexus 7) appear above all the others?
Or whats the easiest way to access those devices forum? I keep scrolling through twenty other phones to find mine and that cannot be the best way..
Thanks
NVM- I found out how to subsribe through use of the app... Awesome app! almost preferable to using the site forums

if you are on the main page www.xda-developers.com, just click on "forums" then there is a box at the top right. Start to type the name of your device and it will give you only those options that match the name.
for instance, I use the Galaxy Nexus forum a alot, what I do is go to the box and type "Galax..." and I already have it there to select with the other Galaxy Phones, or just type "nexus" etc...
I do the same for harder to find forums like Nexus One (currently using), HP TouchPad, HD2, etc... as well.
Because I frequent so many forums and switch phones on the regular, that search box is really the best way to go.
The thing is this forum supports SO many phones, many of them different only because of SoC (international Note / One X etc.. vs US variants) and they have to be split. if you use an N7000 Odin image on an i717, you are going to have problems. So no matter how they are arranged, it is likely that someone is going to want it changed.
The best advice I can give is to use the search bar I mentioned.
1.Bookmark
2.Subscribe
3.Device Search bar
That's it
