Hey Guys...there Are As Many As Five Forums Requested Of Late And The Mods Have Just Not Waken Up.
Htc Gene
Htc Phoebus
Htc Vogue
Htc Shift
Htc Polaris
....guys This Thread Is Dedicated To All The People Who Want Their Own Forum. And Lets Start Voting To Show The Strength.....
+1 Vote :d :d :d :d
well not sure about the other devices but the shift has not being released yet! for sale so a forum would be of little use at the moment but once the people who own these devices increase we can expect a change. but not till then. and also lets not be negtive these guys perform a great service to us and dont get paid they only get my and hopefully others respect and support....
just FYI Mod's CANNOT create new forums.
STILL
hey i agree that the mods do a lot for us .... on the other hand if the mods alone cant create sub forums...who can do it...coz if there will be forums ..people will automatically join..and when people will join thr will be constructive discussions goin on...even if it is for a TO BE released fone...aint it

Hi All,
My apologies for not responding earlier but as midget explained I wasn't able to due to sickness.
The HTC vogue has been added if i'm not mistaken this is the codename for the touch dual.
The HTC shift has been added.
The HTC polaris is added.
Gene and Phoebus are still under discussion within the mod forum.
I hope everyone understands that we don't create a forum for every device HTC thinks up (although we'd love to) but we are short on space and for every new forum we need mods to support them..
HTH HAND,
Flar
hii flar
well i can understand ur side...but HTC has just not thought about the GENE.....GENE is selling hotcake majorly.....plz do sumthin about it....
nikhil
what about a nike forum ... i got one. it is on sale at least in uk and germany.
When you check the new posts,you see only the Kaiser,Elf and Tytn under discussion.I own a gene,but I think the factors standing in the way of its forum are:
1. Nobody can come up with a WM6 upgrade. No point in discussing something that doesnt have any issues/problems. What are we gonna do at that forum,brag about a stable handset?Really,now.
2. Not enough Gene owners speaking out.No advanced users interested in tinkering with it.The ROM Kitchens arent very helpful to the RUU either.
3. Refer to point no.1

touch dual is "nike", "vogue" is touch for USA (CDMA) with different chipset from original touch and dual... Completely different devices
please, add a forum for touch dual aka htc nike
forum for HTC TOUCH DUAL
YES YES YES...please, add a forum for touch dual aka htc nike
Yes please. The Touch Dual needs to have a separate forum!

No Way. On the forum home page there is indeed a "no new posts" icon in front of Himalaya WM6, but that's not correct. The Hima is very much alive and kicking and so are the Hima community and the WM6 cooks.

So you mean to say that some PDAs have had forums for so long they ran out of things to talk about?Thanks for the support.
No, I mean that there is actually a lot of exciting action going on in the Hima board. Hima rules.

So youre saying if we had our own forums we'd be enjoying the same exciting action? Your generosity knows no bounds.

Of course I hope you get your own boards. But you'll have to create your own exciting action, I'm affraid. Why not start the action in here, in the general discussion area? Publish an exciting ROM, a kitchen and some interresting questions about your device right here and soon enough the admins will transfer them to your own brand new area. At least that's what I'd expect. I'm not an admin or a moderator.
Personally, I think the current list needs to be categorised into generations because despite having a screen resolution of 1280x1024, it remains an absolute pain in the arse to scroll through everything to find the forum you want to go to... perhaps firstly categorising the phones into their various "generations" with no pictures just names (although a horizontal line of phone images across the top similar to the wiki would be good since that wouldn't bloat things too badly) but overall, the idea of just dumping them into Generation categories would save on a hell of a lot of scrolling in any case, and images at the top can enable the casual idiots to find the correct phone.
That's my thinking anyway.

Id rather excite the wallet of some programmer who comes up with the ROM I want.That, as you say, will set the benchmark/starting point,which is what I said in my first post on this forum.
Btw,forgive the sarcasm in my previous posts. I was watching BBC News and they were putting words in some guys mouth. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Hi,
First time posting on the forum but I have been following it for many months now and find it very helpful so thank you.
I am about to make the move from Touch Diamond 2 to either the HTC Desire or the Nexus One but I would like some help from the people on the forum in making the decision
Reasons to buy HTC Desire:
1) cheaper (with contract in France)
2) Sense UI - not mandatory but I am used to it from the Diamond2
3) Prefer buttons and optical trackball (I think but have not touched either device yet)
4) Sense UI allows me to Synch Exchange Calendar which would be important (but I know the N1 can use the Touchdown App)
Reasons to buy Nexus One:
1) Will get Android updates faster
So my big question is should I really be so worried at the speed that HTC will release the new Android updates (I have read that 2.2 might be available as of May 17th - but it is not yet clear what will be included)?
My biggest fear is that I will buy the HTC Desire and it will be stuck on 2.1 for the next year and the Nexus One will keep getting more and more features added. I have been reading about how the HTC Hero users are still waiting to get either 2.0 or 2.1 for months and would not like to be in the same boat if I can avoid it.
I have also been reading how the Desire can now be routed so should I put my faith in the XDA developers to keep the Desire updated even if HTC doesn't do it on their own? I have not tried routing and using the Custom Roms yet (on my Diamond2) but am willing to give it a try if needed on the Desire.
Thanks for anyone who can give me some advise on this purchase.

Get a Desire.......Now that it's rooted you're gonna get updates due to the fantastic work on XDA and modaco. Period. Its a no Brainer man!
Regards
Mo
Thank you, That is how I was feeling but I wanted to be reassured
I guess I will just have to learn how to Root update the Desire with out bricking it. Luckily I have also been learning Linux the past few years as it looks like that is also necessary for the rooting.
Thanks for the feedback
I saw people posting various IS ROMs on the forum, for example the following ones:
RUU_Vivo_Sasktel_Canada_WWE_1.46.669.1_Radio_Radio_20.23.30.0802U_38.02.01.17_M_release_176741_signed
RUU_Vivo_HTC_ARA_1.43.415.3_R_Radio_20.27.30.0802U_38.03.01.08_M_release_176683_signed
How can I find out the full name of the ROM running on my IS? I just bought my IS a few days ago and am quite new to HTC systems.

So I got my ATT letter to select a phone. Currently have a iphone but want to get back t Android. So my options basically are iPhone 4s, galaxy s4 and HTC One m8. After reading reviews I think the m8 is the better of the three. Of course I want to root it and install a rom. But I also want to mirror it to y samsung HDTV probably using chromecast unless there is a better way?
So my questions are- how does the M8 compare to the other options I have and how can I mirror it to my tv to play movies and stuff? And what are some good Roms? Besides liquid smooth and cyanogen?
Comparing phones and roms is not allowed here. And questions are usually asked in the Q&A section....not the general !
Good luck finding your own personal preferences !
Cheers.
Phone Comparisons
Welcome to XDA! Due to the high number of trolls who tend to come out of hiding in comparison threads, the site admin have decided that there is only one sanctioned comparison thread. So, I have to close this thread. Please post your question here:
