on the fence about buying an hd7...

teeter tottering.
any peopple coming from android in here? !
well, could you push me one way or the other please?
so basically, convince me to buy a hd7 and support winpho7.

I had an iPhone 4, then traded it in for the Captivate and then I sold the captivate for the focus and I am really pleased with the focus so far. My email syncs great, the GPS (which was a pain to have for the captivate) is spot on and accurate to 20ft on my phone. Xbox live is a plus and they have great games so far in the Marketplace some before android. The battery life is better than the captivate and I played Rocket Riot on my phone for 2 hours and only 15% battery used.
I really enjoy the stability of this phone and you should try it. You wont be disappointed.

thanks!
my pet peeves are no multitasking and wifi hotspot though.
i hate the lack of hackability, i do all kinds of my stuff to my phones .

Thank's closed thread.

Why all the drama lately?

It just seems to be getting worse and worse. It's not a competition here to see who gets the most downloads or posts in a thread...
You have dev's fighting, mods banning people for infractions that are minor compared to some of the stuff going on.

because the community is huge and the rom selection us even bigger and heads tend to swell easily.

I really don't think the mods are strict enough on this forum, one example being the cyanogenmod nightly thread, out of the thousands of posts there maybe 20% are about the actual rom. On other cases i've seen people jump on new devs calling them fake because they sounded like a dev that was once banned from this forum. I really don't get it, **** I could care less if someone was banned awhile back if they are developing new and exciting things for this phone who am I to judge? It's the devs and the mods they create that make this phone incredible, not the name.

I agree 100% with you. Everyone needs a little spankin' once in awhile but to be fully banned should take something very serious. Especially for the productive people.
I know that's probably not exactly what you were thinking but that's my own take on it.

I really don't know anything about the drama, I just need to make my 10th post.

I had spied that awhile ago. Finally tested it marvelc side; didn't work except for the desensing/resensing. That works from all indications.
I also found an apk on the market I've mentioned a few times that does root/unroot; It's called un-Rooting [and the subtitles are in a language I can't read; but it works marvelc side][anyone care to test it gsm side?]; busybox [installer] also available on market. I've found market apps to be easy advice.
As for gsm'ers only known tool [still] to work is the xtc clip; which is a small hardware device one can order for around $40; Simonsimon34 has the latest s-off guide for marvelc.
Alquez's cwm works on both cdma & gsm
Thought I'd drop mention of these tools again.
Rob
PS I found a really useful market app that was started here on xda.. ZDbox I got to find the thread and thank the developer, but it has battery percentage/status & power-saver, task killer, app uninstaller/management [inc Apps2sd], and System Cleaner [cache & history]. Can replace 4-5 apps with this one. Good good end-user tool.

Another misleading thread. l00k, please ask a mod to delete this.
It's already proven that it doesn't work on GSM phones.
The Wildfire S is already full of information on how to s-off CDMA phones.
There is no need to confuse more people.
I guess I can speak on behalf of all WFS GSM users. Please delete this. PLEASE!
Who created the Super Tool and who posted a thread about it on XDA should first confirm if the information is correct. It DOESN'T work on Wildfire S except CDMA versions.
In case you still didn't get it, this is NOT directed to you. It's a general complaint:
It's incredible that so many people post things just because somebody says it works.
Wouldn't it be smarter to confirm first and post after? I'm not talking about you, l00k.
I'm really tired of reading the same crap over and over again, including the people that almost want to force us to buy a XTC Clip. Some say it isn't rocket science because we can sell it after using... but maybe some people just don't have the time, patience or money to do that. It's easy to talk about ourselves. I guess some people should learn how to walk in other people's shoes.

A simple "Doesn't work on GSM" would of done the trick.
You don't get S-OFF for being a ****

question
Although this thread is a repeat and will get deleted because... well if you read it, its just not what xda is about. Even so, I will ask a gsm'r does this tool seem to perform only zerg-rush, desense and resense like on cdma side? Or does nothing work, differences? It does not work for root cdma side, unroot fails, and the methodology is different so I doubt it would s-off on our side. I will contact the developer to specify partial functionality with WFS but no s-off (upon gsm analysis confirmation). Discuss.

Guys, sry but pls stop it.
As much as i can see both of you told things that could be spelled another way
Miguelca i know, your pissed (sry for the bad spelling, but i think it hits the point) on, because you thought there finally is a way for gsm users to s-off their device without xtc and you where disappointed once more, but because of this it shouldn't be delteted, it should be marked like others with cdma only. I know it's hard and i also know you done much for the community, but try to be happy for others that they got one more option, i'm sure there will come a way for gsm users finally.
And 100k, sry but your rudness wasn't correct and your really should apology for it, there are other ways to tell such things than such a bad language.
At this point Miguelca is right, you should bring more respect to others, if he tells something that you think it's not true or should be handled another way, express it in a normal way not like you did. It's much more constructive and others can accept it or/and discuss it with you, but like you did they get angry and things get badder not better, so pls be patient next time and tell what you want to tell as smooth as you can.

Don't worry tectas. This is definitely my last post about this bad soap-opera.
l00k doesn't care to reread my first post and doesn't want to admit that there is a part he must have overlooked or misunderstood. Some people want to be always on top, even when they have no arguments and need to use rude language. Just one simple conclusion: l00k wrote 212 posts since September 2006 and got 9 thanks. I'm here since June 2010, wrote 114 posts (before this one) and got 51 thanks.
I rest my case.

I think you are right about not deleting the posts like this and renaming them. If other posts hadn't been deleted (and I did search on the subject before posting) then I would have seen it was cdma only.
Sorry for calling you a **** miguelca it wasn't very nice and I should have elaborated a little more as to why your comment and comments like them annoy me so much. I don't spend much time in the wfs section anymore I saw the article in an rss feed from another android site and thought about you guys. I saw no other posts about the unlock tool so thought i'd share it. Seeing as this site is international and this section is not just about gsm phones it is a valid thread. Try not to jump on people so quickly.
FYI the thanks button hasn't been there since the dawn of time.

Where have all the Miui's gone?

I just moved from my Miui running HTC HD2 to the T-Mobile S2 and I really like the phone but where are the Miui ROMs? Langthang had an awesome one for the HD2 and there was a couple of others that had a large following.
Am I missing something? ;-)
Thanks,
Kevin

This phone is still relatively new.
Gotta give it time.
More support couldn't hurt though.
But yeah give it time.

Yeah, Like he said. Give it more time. If you don't wanna wait hop on the galaxy nexus bro. More deb's over there. I just really hope when G4x is out there is a lot more dev on that device.

lol so true.
I have my share of trolling people for posting repetitive questions and in the wrong section, but sometimes people really don't know what to do or where to go. Each device's subforum are setup differently. Usually these threads should be replied once or twice at most and the thread can be moved or die out. However, we're in no position to talk down on anyone. We're all people behind these words. It can be a kid, an adult, someone's grandparents, who knows. But condescending words can totally ruin someone's mood and day and that will be reflected upon.

Wow.

Why do you hate that guy? You don't even know him. I agree with what he is trying to say, just not the manner in which it was stated. The op has obviously been around xda long enough to know about miui, he should know where questions belong. There is a reason there are different sub boards. There is no sense in filling the development section with ridiculous questions. A little research goes a long way. If he wanted a miui rom he should of checked the dev board before purchasing the device. Since he didn't, he should have read a little and would have noticed that cm and miui is lacking on our device...

Agree with jdubb a 100 pct. Phones like the hd2 have been out for a long time and we all know of about its huge dev support. Our phones are relatively new and people just gotta be patient. Straight up. If not, sell your phone and go get a Galaxy Nexus.

Reported - wrong forum.....bunched panties.

The op might have posted in the wrong section but the post is helpful in reminding DEV's that there is still interest in the ROM. From what I was reading on XDA and other sites was that MIUI for the TMO SGS2 should have come out around Xmas.
The delay as I understand it is due to lack of Cyanogen support, which is another ROM most of us are waiting to try and as far as I know the development of that has been halted until V9 is available.

The delay as I understand it is due to lack of Cyanogen support, which is another ROM most of us are waiting to try and as far as I know the development of that has been halted until V9 is available.
Yes, I donate!

I agree with mainmast on this one, and I think he answered the question and the root cause of the problem quite succinctly. If his was the first response to the OP, we probably wouldn't be having this discussion. This type of quick question in the dev forum can indicate a certain level of interest in the port. I come here looking for ROMs, and I have a specific interest in MIUI, as I love to use that on my Nexus One. Admittedly, I don't frequent the Q&A section as much as this forum, but I still want to know about the progress on a MIUI rom.
Not to add to an out of place post, but we can agree that the post from our military friend (thanks for your service, btw) was pretty strongly worded. Subsequently, the additional comments (including mine) have just added to the legitimacy of this question... we're all invested enough in the question or the forum to respond.

There is interest in an MIUI ROM???

Had to get a refund for my One X :-(

Well after days of not being able to make calls in the office via the Suresignal, and after swapping out the phone for a new one, I had to get a refund.
Really wanted to keep this device, but as a business, and not being able to make or receive calls in the office, it had to go, and yes I've been through the turning WIFI off etc, but every other device I have owned seems to be able to connect to wifi and the Suresignal at the same time and make phone calls.
There seems to be an issue with connecting to the Vodafone Suresignal, and HTC didn't know about the issue when I called, and had no help on the matter.
Such a shame....

it might be kind of a shame to add another thread to so many when there is a returns thread. everyone sees you now, though, and there are tons of dupe threads that stay open so i'm sure you can wait around and get some more replies. =]

Don't really understand the need for your post, I made a valid point, one that CPW and HTC seem (or claim) to be unaware of.
After spending just under £500, I think I have reason to gripe.
The one drawback with forums seems to be a global thing across all forums, is that there is always someone that wants to have a pop and say "do a search before posting" etc, but surely a forum is to ask and seek advice, and discuss, not to just search an archive, we may just as well have a searchable database and be done with if that's the attitude.
Why doesn't a mod just move the thread as is the norm if it's that much of an issue?
As I see it, you have not made any constructive additions to the thread at all, does your One X connect to a sure signal, do you have a solution for it?
Some of us don't have hours and hours to trawl through shed loads of threads and search results, and only spend a few short minutes online when work commitments allow.

Just a tip, if your thread is about Sure Signal, put that in the title.

Haha my phone is fine, get it on a decent network and stop complaining. Don't see the need for your post, complain on a Vodafone web site, and not try to make HTC sound bad, Vodafone network problems if u ask me
HTC is fine.

Chill out
No need for the hostility, if someone has a solution then help the guy out

Seriously! We were all "noobs" once. Instead of bashing offer help. Sometimes a new user can't always find what they are looking for. Search functions are not always "friendly".
My MoPho's in the kitchen sink!!

So calls are ok outdoor? When the reception is good? Then it is not phone's problem.
One valid solution, ask your boss to place you closer to window.

Come on man. The OP has been a member since 2009, started a dozen threads and been thanked once. I guess some people give to this community, others just take.

I actually agree with this comment.
The OP has RETURNED his phone, hes not posting to ask for a solution before he returns and so isnt actually asking for help to fix something.
If he had been asking for help as a last straw, then yes, a new thread my be a good idea… just stating a fact that hes returned the phone…. kinda pointless

It's not worth getting bent out of shape over really is it, it's only a phone after all...

Had 2 phones (and yes updated both), HTC had no idea, Vodafone had no idea, Carphone Warehouse had no idea, so what do you do, leave a £500 paperweight on the desk because it can't make calls like any other device on the market, or take it back within the 30 days to get your £500 back?
I searched....and searched for answers, posted on the VF forum, but nobody had any answers, I wonder just how many of you actually use a device for work, and rely on it for communication, instead of just playing angry birds and posting a Facebook update that you've just bought a can of cola!
I see countless complaint threads about "there's a mark on my device, I want it exchanged" or "my screen creaks" etc etc etc, to me, that's petty, but people deem them to be worthy of much discussion.....

Some people post when they feel they have something to contribute, others just post for the sake of it and actually say nothing....
