Develop Bugs

So I hear that one of these phones is coming to Sprint soon...

And I'm thinking about picking it up. I currently have the Epic 4G and I had the Evo and honestly..I just dont like how Android is doing things. Spent more time tweaking and messing with it instead of using it as a phone and it still bugs me :/
But the point of this thread wasnt to bring that up..here's what I'd like to know:
This is how I use my phone. A few calls. I used to text a whole bunch...then I realized how dumb that was so now I only send about 20 a day. I listen to music a sht ton and I also use the browser a sht ton as well. I, however, dont use any apps other than the apps given to me from the get-go.
Would any windows phone 7's battery life be able to cover those things for at least 4-5 hours? Also, what are the biggest issues with windows phone 7 right now? And by that I simply mean problems that can be found on all phones, not just things that you dont like personally.
And I was googling and youtubing trying to answer those things for myself and I saw this one video..and this guy went to the bottom of the screen and on the bottom right it had what looked like some XBL stuff...the games on these phones run multiplayer through XBL?

WP7 should do this perfectly fine. The browser is great, with zune listening to Music is perfect. And from what I hear battery life in general is great.

The major issues currently are, it can't connect to a hidden wifi network, the marketplace is a little buggy and will crash at times, no copy/paste if that matters to you. Though the marketplace and c/p are getting fixed in the update that is coming out in the next week or so.

Full multiplayer isn't there...yet. Turn based multi-player is however

Battery life on WP is better than android in my opinion (definately depends on battery size, etc).
Windows phone is nice, I was sick of android (had an evo on sprint) as well so I jumped ship over to AT&T and got the focus. Windows phone is a breath of fresh air. Android is just so choppy and hacked together... Gingerbread is nice, but still slow compared to windows.

Yeah I have been thinking about getting the Arrive (pro7)on sprint when its released. I have played around with WP7 a few times when I go to Best Buy, and I like the simplicity of the UI. its almost like the difference between iOS and Honeycomb. I love android to death, I'm just ready for a change I guess. It's worth a try anyway, if I don't like it I can always go back to my EVO or my Shift. And from what I have read about the Arrive on Sprint, it will come with copy and paste out of the box on the 20th.

Seriously? That's all? I'm liking WP7 already! Well..I mean those are problems and I dont like problems but I dont even go to the market on my epic and I dont use wifi...I probably wouldnt have even noticed those things if I had the device and nobody brought it up.

Well I saw that this one WP7 phone had like a 1200mah battery and it got 12 hours which is pretty impressive even with medium use. I think the one for sprint will have atleast a 1500mah so Im excited! And yeah, Android is just so damn choppy...and Android does get A LOT of things right but at the same time, they get a lot wrong...which wouldnt be a problem if they planned on fixing those issues but I just dont see any fixes in the future. The OS is too busy trying to steal the gamers from iOS...providing a smooth experience just doesnt seem top priority right now...and thats a shame.

Yeah that Arrive is what Im looking forward to. And like you say, if I dont like it im in the same boat as you... I can just activate my Epic again and it'd be all good. But I doubt I'll go back.

I wanna be a dj

We're comin from a pure power source.

do you mean a mixing app for your phone? That's not exactly going to make you a dj, probably just get you laughed at, lol
If you find one it'll be more of a toy if anything. If you can't afford a real turntable/mixer setup then you should at least look at PC solutions, not phone ones....

no not yet

I think you took that post out of context. I don't think he was trying to be a ****.

I have tried a quite a few of them, none that work very good though. Droid DJ has the most potential, but it has problems running on the Evo (songs playing on one deck skip intermittently while a song is loading on the other deck). The developer has been trying to fix the problem, but he doesn't have an Evo to develop on, so it is going kind of slow. It doesn't do it as bad if you use a class 10 sd card, but it still does it.
Actually, regarding the comment above about getting laughed at, I disagree. My interest in it stems from a problem I had djing at a local club. One of the club clientele fell and hit the mixer rack that my dj equipment is on and knocked my laptop on the floor, breaking it up into about five pieces. Luckily, I had my turntables and cd decks to fall back on and was able to finish out the gig without anyone knowing the difference. I was also able to use my phone to mix some new stuff off of my sd card in to the mix with the cd's and lp's I had brought with me. Like most modern dj's, all of my newest music is on computer now days (turntables are just used with the computer with time code albums), so it would be handy to have a copy of my playlist on my phones sd card as a backup (which I do). And one of the few things I don't have a backup for in my dj rack is the mixer, if it died I would be stuck playing one song at a time. So, if I had a decent mixing app, and something like this happened again, I could mix right from my phone and it could save the day in a pinch.

Sounds like you need to play in better clubs lol. I've never spun somewhere where I had to bring my own equipment and they didn't have everything I could ask for set up in a way that someone won't knock it over....

True, but if you saw this clubs equipment you would probably bring your own too. LOL
Actually, my operation is kind of a niche thing. The reason we get jobs is because of my equipment. When we do our show we supply everything from the sound system to the diesel generator to run it. All we use at the venue is floor space, we even have our own stage, but in this club their wasn't enough room for it. Actually, most of our venues are either outside or in large warehouses, doing clubs is pretty rare for us.

buying the GS2 on Monday

what should I/do I need to know about the GS2? pros and cons please
I really love my Epic, but I know I'm going to miss my QWERTY
this will be my first full touch-screen phone so I'm a little weary
how do you guys like your GS2's?

I've had mine for about a week now (came from and EVO) I have no complaints whats so ever........... Your mileage may vary.......

Its a good device coming from the Evo. Its has a few issues like the Loss of service, but I did experience that until I rooted the device so I dont blame it on the phone.
The one problem that I do have is that it wont play most games for more than 10 to 15 minutes. But I use it for reading more than anything else and sprint and samsung are suppose to be releasing a patch next month.

I would say stop calling it the SGS2 (which, I know, it is) and get used to ET4G. If for nothing else than to know that if something is labeled SGS2 that you should. not. flash. it.
As far as QWERTY goes? Pffft. I was so worried when I got my Evo that I was going to miss QWERTY. I didn't have the Hero long enough to get used to it, then I got the Moment and got used to it (that keyboard sucked anway)....but the transition took, oh, a week or two. That was a year and a half ago and I've never regretted ditching the real keyboard. There are hundreds of 'em. Find one you like. I go back and forth between Swype and SwiftkeyX and can haul major ass on both....especially Swype. SwiftKeyX is totally worth whatever it costs. If you let it read your texts, emails and Facebook posts it's prediction is simply amazing. You barely even have to try being precise.

This phone is the epic now... If you like your keyboard, turn the phone landscape, then the keys r bigger than my gfs physical keys on the og epic

I got it last Tuesday and love the phone and size. Im using the "Go Launcher" and LOVE IT, amazing how easily it is to make your beautiful looking and functional. The only problem Im having is LOS. And battery life is not that good either but , what can you expect from a dual Core phone with a big ass screen. You can tweak it with SetCpu. But Im still trying to find the best configuration so i can have a optimal battery life.
But i must say the phone is amazing and also it also lets you uninstall a lot of the preloaded apps without rooting, something other phones and carriers wont permit.

I am also getting this phone... just ordered it tonight.. should be here no later than Wed!
I'll be switching from the Moment and lack of a physical keyboard was also something I was wondering about. Hence why I sub'd to this thread.. I wanna see what y'all have to say.

If you are coming from the Moment you will love this device. I had the moment for 6 months but I had to get rid of it because I hated it. I went to the and loved that until my charger port broke. Got this as a replacement. This is better than the Evo, considering the screen is excellent. Also it is so much lighter and thinner than the Evo and Touchwiz is not as bad as people make it out to be.
The only problem with it that I have had is the sound bug which causes some games to just quit.

Here's a little devil's advocate.
I bought the ET4G on a whim after seeing it on Craigslist for an attractive price. After using it for a week, it's going back on Craigslist and I am using my OG Epic again w/ the new Gingerbread release (and physical keyboard fixes!).
While the ET4G certainly offers a snappier Android experience and a better camera than the OG Epic, I didn't find the boost in speed or extra screen real estate to be worth the $325 I paid for the device. I think the only speed boost worth writing home about was the speed of the ET4G's stock browser. Lastly, the audio quality of SGSII is inferior to SGSI and in all honesty not worthy of a high end smartphone - this was the deal breaker for me.
Considering that you already have the OG Epic, I'd wait until the middle of next year so you can get a killer future-proof 720p LTE phone at a fully discounted price. All that said, the ET4G is still a great device!

That's one reason I haven't taken the plunge (though I tried once, and the guy at the store said he couldn't mess with my plan). When I played with it at the store, it wouldn't rotate. Meanwhile, some of the apps (especially the camera app) would go landscape and not go back. Anyone else have that problem?

GTA III for our T989!

I was able to buy and install GTA III but I receive the following error when attempting to download the additional files.
"Data download authorization error. is the time on your device set correctly?"
Am I the only one seeing this?

Downloaded and installed fine for me. I have been playing it all morning... many many memories

GTA III for our phone!
Edit: After buying it on the web store, I can't install it to my device. Seems the web market messed up on compatibility.
Rockstar said at 1st it would only work on tegra devices. I checked the market today and there's a version for our phones now as well.
GTAIII SGS2
I was a bit disappointed that we weren't getting it as I beat this game on the pc years ago. Now I can replay it on a portable thanks to rockstar games.. If you haven't played this game before, I would recommend you try it. It's what made gta what it is today.
Now if we can only get some gta2 or the london missions.

but not a big fan of GTA games myself
i used to like them way back then, but now i find them boring...

Sorry for my newbiness but when you go to that link, how come it shows 3 different versions?
GTA III
GTA 3
and Grand Theft Auto 3?
And they all have different # of reviews?

i was pondering the same thing as well
probably for different phones?

Plays great and controls are good. Great framerate but the resolution is a little low, although understandable as theres a lot of different hardware for android.

Use network settings
Hey, I had the same problem on my Acer Iconia 10 inch tablet. At first I thought it's the crappy wi-fi, then I just set date and time to network settings in the tablet's menu and - even though the time was wrong by 7 hours, it worked. the problem is that many wi-fi networks don't have the proper time set on them (the one I used is Time Warner in NY), so the downloader gets some error. you can set your time back after you're done downloading.

Any good RPG's?

I've been playing GBA RPGs for a while on this phone and am looking for some good Android-native RPGs. I was looking at the Final Fantasy ones but I am not paying $7-16 for games I already have on my DS. Any suggestions? Free preferable. I already have Battleheart.

LOL I know! Seems like its everyone deems someone that asks a noob or lazy...
I've been looking for this too! Tried Zenonia, its kool but the 3rd and 4th are pay to play, in game unlockable for cash :/ why is it becoming a tendency?
One thing I've been searching is for a good tactical RPG like Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy Tactics, the closest thing I've found is Spectral Souls and it's $14.99 Reason I haven't bought it yet, thanks to the new 15min limit rebate, I won't know if it's really that good to keep or if I don't run into problems during the download of the extra 1.5GB of data
A good hack/slash RPG is Caligo Chaser, it's $2.99 but worth it. Good controls and decent continuous story line, played it non stop for days.
Another one is Across Age DX, it's a free trial and unlock once you finish the intro phase. The developers compare it to Zelda, but for me it's more like Wild Arms 1 gameplay. They are very similar, tools and co-op with party members. The story seems good so far and the dialog is well put together too. Haven't unlocked it yet, but I will once I clear out some minor debt...
How's Battleheart working for you? Just saw the vid and it seems really good, somewhat a rip off the old FF jobs though :/ Noticed what seemed like Paladin, monk, white mage, dark mage, etc -___-
Edit - I haven't installed any EMUs yet due to onscreen controls being uncomfortable for me, huge hands... I'm considering getting the PS3 control adapter for the phone and use that. forgot what it was and didn't bookmark the site *facepalm*

Kemco makes several that are pretty cheap ($3~4 last I checked). Eve of Genesis and Symphony of Eternity just to name two of them. Gamevil makes one or two. I have Illusia from them. Also downloaded Inotia3 (which is free) a couple of days ago, but I really haven't touched any of them with the exception of Symphony of Eternity.
Like you I've eyed the Final Fantasy games, but I'm not paying that much. Spectral Souls has been on my list too, but again... Not paying $15 for it.
Problem with the free ones is that they're free to play, but to get anything worth getting you have to pay for it... as you know from Zenonia.

LOL I know! Seems like its everyone deems someone that asks a noob or lazy...
I've been looking for this too! Tried Zenonia, its kool but the 3rd and 4th are pay to play, in game unlockable for cash :/ why is it becoming a tendency?
One thing I've been searching is for a good tactical RPG like Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy Tactics, the closest thing I've found is Spectral Souls and it's $14.99 Reason I haven't bought it yet, thanks to the new 15min limit rebate, I won't know if it's really that good to keep or if I don't run into problems during the download of the extra 1.5GB of data
A good hack/slash RPG is Caligo Chaser, it's $2.99 but worth it. Good controls and decent continuous story line, played it non stop for days.
Another one is Across Age DX, it's a free trial and unlock once you finish the intro phase. The developers compare it to Zelda, but for me it's more like Wild Arms 1 gameplay. They are very similar, tools and co-op with party members. The story seems good so far and the dialog is well put together too. Haven't unlocked it yet, but I will once I clear out some minor debt...

The problem with the 15 min is you can't really judge an RPG in 15 min!!! It takes way longer, especially if they have intros/tutorials.
I haven't played Battleheart in a while but I like it......didn't really have a story though. Maybe I did and missed it.
As far as EMUs I haven't been able to gague my phone's battery life at all because I spend almost an hour a day playing Pokemon LeafGreen lmao. My coworkers think I'm nuts now. I paid the $4.99 for VGBA and I have to say it was worth every dime. Especially since I figured out how to transfer my files to the PC and trade with other EMU saves......after I finish up with Pokemon I'm probably going to play Golden Sun which I never got around to but heard is great.

That's why I've stayed away from buying a few...
Never was into Pokemon... Now Golden Sun for GBA, that I played (during my breaks from my old job lol) and still have both cartridges Golden Sun and Golden Sun Lost Age. The game has an awesome storyline and plot, the battle system is good and the Dijnns (summons) are a nice.

Lol, I know how to search RPG on Google Play. I obviously want people's opinions on what they like to play. Why does EVERYTHING on this forum have to be Google it or search the play store.

Just found my DS lol. Had lost it for a while. Hopefully can save some battery on my phone now, at least when it comes to the GBA stuff.

Kool! Need to see if my old GBA SP is still at my mom's... all I need is to get charger for it. Still those Golden Sun and Metroid Fusion cartriges haha Though I'm thinking of getting a used PSP, hacking it and puting in the GBA emu
Have you found any other good RPGs for Android?

I'm just going to get a flash cart for my DS. Is only $20. I was thinking about buying a PSP too but I'm stick with my DS. If you can pick up a DS Lite for cheap (40-60) and a flash cart for $20 that might be a good investment......
Also, I haven't checked out any of the games suggested but am going to do that this weekend.

I've been considering the DS and flash cart, it's dead cheap. But my better half is most likely going to get the 3DS and it can use the flash card too, but not for 3D games, yet that is.
Was goin for the psp cause of some of the RPGs and FF tactics, though there's the DS one... Idk, now you got me undecided lmao
Check out http://buy.thegameklip.com it an adapter that attaches your PS3 controler to the phone.

I'd get the SuperCard DSTWO for the 3DS. It's like $40 depending on where you get it from. There are cheaper ones but from what I know this is the only one that is constantly working as the 3DS firmware upgrades come in.
AND get the PSP lol. The PSP is worth it just for being able to play Final Fantasy 7-9 in my opinion.

Thanks, I'll have that in mind for when they get the 3DS.
As for me, spoke with a friend and he might be able to build a PSP from parts he has lying around, he repair them on the side. I settled on the psp

Lucky you. I had a PSP a while ago that I had modded but I wound up selling it because I didn't really use it at the time. I wish I had kept it. From looking on EBay/Craigslist I think people are wayyyy overpricing their 3000's.

you don't really need an adapter to use ps3 or wii controllers. They both use Bluetooth and their are neat apps for connecting them, remapping buttons ect....

Good one! Haven't played the wii version yet, need to finish a RPG first.
This kinda derailed a bit lol originally the op was looking for Android games...
@gpgorbosjr how has your search come along, were you able to try out the suggestions?

ETERNITY WARRIORS 2!!! it's the best damn game. It's a little unstable and has some lag but it's awesome... multiplayer menu lag is horrible. It just me who has fps drop randomly for a sec and have unresponsive game buttons in menus?
