[Q] "myTouch 3G Slide" vs. "myTouch 3G" - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

According to CyanogenMod:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/htc-slide
this myTouch 3G Slide
http://www.htc.com/us/products/t-mobile-mytouch-3g-slide?view=1-2&sort=0&filters=3-0-0
is supported.
There is no mention of the myTouch 3G
http://www.htc.com/us/products/t-mobile-mytouch-3g?view=1-2&sort=0&filters=3-0-0
These two 3G phones look different. Plus, the former is a slider.
Can you install CM7 on the myTouch 3G? (non-slider)

There are a bunch of roms out there for the earlier mytouch3g. The slide roms will not work. Diff. screen size etc. One of the best ones is ezgingerbread by ezterry I think. Do a search & you will find it.

The slide is much better than the original mytouch.

[Q] MyTouch 4G ROM for the slide?

any chance this will happen?
Someone may make a port, sure, but to actually acheive 4g speeds, not likely. It's been discussed here already that it cannot support the full speed of HSPA+
i know it's impossible to reach 4G speeds i was just wondering about the rom, because i just saw a video on mytouch 4g and i like the ui
Oh, haven't seen it yet. I imagine it can be ported provided it's stock features aren't too resource heavy... Being that it's not even being sold yet, a ROM is not likely anytime soon...
a port is not likely due to the difference in screen size
that's too bad, do you think the froyo update will be similar?

Not to sound stupid or rude, but I could of sworn that they already leaked the myTouch 4g's rom. The problem with the myTouch 4g's rom is that its gonna take up too much time trying to get it to work for our device. The 4g has a larger screen resolution than us. The rom will have to be resized to work for our phone. I don't think no one will want to take on that project.

The 4g's UI is basically the same UI we already have. Only real difference I've seen was the dialer and the notification having the ability to show more than just 4 recent apps that have been used.

I just watched a video of the phone, the UI was renamed mySense now...I still wondering how they found time to make a 2.2 version of Espresso/mySense, but cant simply give us 2.2...There are also new media apps, and some new widget designs. And of course froyo's power that's from JIT. The 4G was give 7xx ram and 4GB int, which is a lot more than we got.
I may get a G2 though since the design is better, but I might wait for dual-core phones instead.
But the rom probably wont be ported due to the HDPI screen, that we dont have, which is why we dont have a rom from the Desire/evo/SGS/Droid X/etc...

I think the froyo update for our phone has been completed for a while now. I think that T-Mobile hasn't given it to us because they want us to get rid of the Slide for their newer model (myTouch 4g).
Its all about marketing!

Thanks and I'm willing to bet that late November is the date for Froyo 2.2 update. If not then early December. T-MOBILE is giving us time to consider buying the g2 or myTouch 4g. The sad part is that I bought this phone assuming that the update was gonna be given shortly after. BOY WAS I WRONG.LMAO. Good part is that I paid $50 brand new for this phone without contract. I'm sorry for the people who paid $500+. That's very high for a midrange phone.

Yeah switch to my dad's plan and i got this for free, but since then my dad's broken the contract, HD2 issues, and i'm stuck with my mom's plan good thing is that her contract ends December so i'll just get a new phone

Lmao. Unfortunately I don't have that hook-up anymore. If I did I would of picked up the 4g cause $50 isn't a bad price for any smartphone without contract.

Genius Button

Is the Mytouch 3g slide with Genius button the same as the regular slide? Phone arena had orignally listed it as an up coming phone a few months back with a 1ghz processor, but I can't find the proocessor specs for it on T-mobile's website, and Phone arean has removed it from upcoming, and it isn't listed under available either, it had said holiday 2010 release date soo...? Also would Dev and rom support for it be in this forum or would XDA open a new section. Thanks
Never Mind, finally found a reference to the processor on the tmobile website, its sayin 600mhz, which leaves me wondering what happened to the phone PhoneArena was taking about strange.
sounds like they might have mixed up the Mytouch 4G specs wit the Mytouch 3G Slide specs.

Yeah must be the case

[Q] is there currently a rom that supports hspa+ on the G2

hey so i was wondering amongst the plentiful custom roms we have out here for the G2 is if any of them uses HSPA+ speeds or "4G" speeds i got a friend that needs those speed for data tethering and im not sur how to go about the search since im still new to customizing android phones (ive had the inspire for less than month rooted and flashed like 6roms so far) so if any1 knos if there is or isnt one please let me kno
The CM 7.0.3 shows me a "H" symbol when in 4G mode. My phone has been pretty quick, so you might want to start there.
G2 is a hspa+ phone so whatever rom you use will support it. The real question is "is there hspa coverage in your area? ". If you don't have coverage you won't get the speeds.

Yeah, the hardware natively supports HSPA+ up to 14.4 Mbps. Different ROMs just display different icons (H, 3G+, 4G) depending on the ROM.

mytouch 4g vs amaze

my mt3gs finally died!
and now tmo is not selling them anymore, within the last few days.....
what would you buy?
MYTouch 4g Slide or HTC Amaze 4G?

I would go for the amaze 4g. Slider phones always seem to have problems with the flex cable inside, and an all touch phone obviously would not have that sort of problem. All touch phones also seem to have better/more variety of cases. Plus the amaze 4g has a qhd screen rather than a lower resolution wvga. For me though, im actually considering the galaxy s II instead of the amaze 4g for my upgrade, but both are good phones.
Thanks for the input.
And due to tmo not letting me upgrade yet, anyone selling a mt3gs?
All I can say is that I upgraded from the Slide to the Amaze and I love this phone.

Why is there no 4g icon

Hello everyone sorry for the stupid question but I can assure you I did search for the answer and can up empty handed. I'm on uvlh1 radio and liquid smooth rc9 ROM and for months now my signal is crap I used to see 4g icon now I only see h+ or 3g and I have no clue which is better it seems like when it's on 3g data works faster. So here's my questions.
H+ or 3g which is better?
Lte/gsm/wcdma or gsm/wcdma preferred. Which is better to select in mobile network settings?
And last any better radios out there that are compatible with t989?

I think some ROMs say H+ instead of 4G, but I *think* it's strictly cosmetic and doesn't affect your signal.
I changed network mode once and it broke my signal, so I'd just leave it on default. Plus from what I was reading, Hercules doesn't have the hardware for LTE, so that option is only in there for other devices.
As for radios, I know everyone says this, but really, your best bet is to try them yourself ( check the sticky in development ), because not all devices and areas react to specific radios the same.
Russian smashed across the interwebz from my T-Mobile Galaxy S2. Please hit thanks if I helped.
I had the same issue... from what I gather H+ is Tmo's close version of 4G. I heard Tmo might be getting LTE pretty soon... we'll see.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
H+ is 4G on AOSP ROMs. TW ROMs are the only ROMs that show 4G as 4G. The true way is to see the signal strength in system settings
