So we have the TMo G1 from HTC, loving it so far, and I am sure that as it matures I'll love it more (glass half full as it were).
I am seeing tidbits on other manufactures' phones in the works that will run the Android works. I am hesitant to accept the "Bob's phone company phone" as the "G2" despite how they may want to market it.
What are your thoughts as to how we might have concensus for what makes a G2 or G3, etc.
1. Do we just number the HTC brand as G1, G2, Gx?
2. Do we number every bit of hardware that comes out as the next Gx?
3. Is it the software or hardware that makes the Gx?
4. Who is on first, What is on second...
5. Other thoughts?
--M
I may be wrong (most of the time I am not but sometimes I am ) but T-Mobile called it the G1... the hardware is called the HTC Dream... the OS is called Android. I think the Gx series will be T-Mobile. If some other carrier comes out with a phone called the G2 we will just call them by the HTC name. When another carrier comes out with an Android phone they will come up with their own name. It may still be the same HTC Dream hardware but ATT may call it the Chin... or Flip or something like that (I mean they came up with Tilt?!?). So I wouldn't be to worried about when you cross the line from the G1 to the G2. (if you could get the touch HD with Cap touch and android I would call that the G2)
Do we really care??
Various carriers/manufacturers will call their Android handsets whatever they want to call them.
if they name it something too close to tmobiles brand lawsuits will follow
i mean tmobile sue companys for using the same colour :O

I wanna see them make one of these... A Chinese company open no more than a year thinks they can make a phone that will surpass that of one from a company of many years?
On top of that half the specs are lies because the android doesn't have those support... yes they could have done it themselves but this goes back to the fact that they have 1 year of experience. I doubt this is for real.
Not only that but their website is so poorly coded I doubt they have the money to even hire someone to program the android. They have a total of 2 million dollars to invest... I see this as a "dream" in itself for the company.

What a waste of a thread
The Android 1.6 SDK is now available!
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.6-highlights.html
http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.6_r1/index.html
Now, the question is, how soon before we can have it running on our Vogues?
It already is. I have a build up at the vouge hero Google code site. Everything is working except audio is a little distorted.
Zen, is the build you are talking about the cyanogen-donut.4.7.1-a one? I read on engadget that 1.6 allows for CDMA functionality...perfection is in sight.

Its not in the cyanogen build because its ported from the g1 and doesn't need the cdma functionality.
What build is it then? I have been playing with the xROM builds and enjoying them, but I am eager to try one that has the CDMA thing going naitively. Can you hook a noob up with a link? Thanks Zen!

There isn't any cdma in the one at the vogue-hero page.

Actually it's not going to help all that much in the beginning. And truthfully everything works fine for me in the ion builds. The libhtcgeneric-ril.so that we use is actually coded to work around the fact that we don't have native cdma support. What I'm after is a true cdma libhtc-ril.so from a verizon branded htc android phone if they ever release one. I used the ril from the latest hero and calls come through great even the caller id works like it's supposed to but i can't get data working with it and verizon doesn't use sim cards so I can't even save my apn. If verizon doesn't come around soon I'm going to another carrier.

that and they tend to cripple their phones plus i'd rather have a sim card and be able to just switch phones when ever.
I am just a user and not versed on the whole coding thing and whatnot, but I am hoping the CDMA support with android on the vogue will bring full bluetooth support. I know that its working somewhat on xROM, but its sketchy for me. Sometimes it works and sometimes not so much (I never was able to initiate voice dialing from the headset and whenever I boot Android from winmo I have to repair my earbud...sometimes I can't even repair it without deleting the data file first).
From what I have gleaned from reading the various posts here and in other ppc oriented boards, full functionality on the vogue is going to come from a CDMA supported version of Android. I could be wrong of course, but thats what I understood.
Donut 1.6 wishes.
Bluetooth, want it, but can live without.
MMS, need it. I only have one phone and would love to not have to reboot into WinMo anymore. My job requires me to be able to send picture messages throughout the day, and so I am forced to use WinMo during my work hours. Everyday I look forward to when I can launch back into Android on my phone.
Well I think Sprint will be the first CDMA carrier with a android based handset so that might help things out. heres somethign crazy I read the company that owns T-Mobile USA has been looking at placing a bid to buy Sprint imagine that might see sprint with sim cards weird....

Good news zenulator, Verizon is getting the Moto Sholes on Oct 10 which is their premier handset. As far as everything goes, it is untouched from the orignal spec sheet that was leaked a month ago. The design of it is okay but the only thing that worried me when playing around with it was that the slider seemed kinda flimzy but other than that, the Motoblur UI worked like a charm.

What, no leaked photos? I'm glad to hear that someone has actually TOUCHED the Sholes, this gives me great joy! Question about Motoblur UI, is it just widgets on the home screen or a whole new home screen experience?
Also, there's the rumors of the HTC Desire hitting Verizon sometime next month so that will be two in Verizon's corner.

Eventually, every carrier, in the next few years will be implementing a sim style chip into their phones for when LTE goes full on for both voice/data. For the time being, you will see LTE handsets that have a LTE sim chip and/or both a CDMA MEID code or GSM sim slot. With Sprint digging its own grave with its supposed 4G Wimax network(I would say its a 3.5G network) while everyone else switches to LTE, it wouldn't supprise me if T-MO buys Sprint and ditches Wimax and that idiot of a CEO, Dan Hesse.

Motoblur is a new home screen setup kind of like Sense UI. The biggest difference is the theme setup and the social integration like what Sense UI has. When I played with it, supposably you should be able to slide up and down for new home screens but it never did as they claimed.
I haven't gotten a chance with the HTC Desire yet, their marketing people havent stopped by yet since they lauched the HTC Ozone. From what I hear on the desire, its a plain jane google interface with the standard 528mhz quallcrap processor, 256mb ram and 512 rom.

I knew about the sholes but this is the first i've heard of the HTC Desire. I don't really like the look of the sholes. I actually want htc to put out a redesigned g1 with specs similar to the hero.
This is all the info we have on the HTC Desire so far: http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/09/01/android-powered-htc-desire-6200-has-verizon-in-its-sights/
Not much, but it's promising.
Hi guys, before it goes on Ebay, would anyone like to swap their Magic for a Dream G1?
Mine is rooted with CM 4.0.4, Its boxed with all the bits, The casing is a little scratched but the screen is perfect.
Let me know, Ill post ebay link here if it goes on.
Cheers
Mark
I'd be surprised anyone who has rooted their Magic will trade for a Dream. IMO
Try CEX
Cheers buddy why not exchange it for vouchers at CEX?

Thanks Alpha, That looks like a good idea......

Given the fact that a magic lacks a keyboard, it should't surprise you at all, especially since all else is IDENTICAL.
Some (unusual) versions of magic (like the one sold by rogers in canada) have more memory, but typically, a keyboard is far more important than that.

I respectfully disagree, first off HTC Branded Magics are actually more common than you think, all Asian countries, Canada and some European countries have the 32A version. The reason you might think that 32B are are more ubiquitous would be based on the amount of ROMs made for that version. But that is mostly because most developers are from the US which has the 32B version.
Secondly, if given the choice between being able to use more resource demanding ROM like Sense UI (thanks to the developers here at XDA) or a less that stellar keyboard. The choice is obvious to me. Hence the reason I mentioned rooted phones.
I believe that owners of the HD2 might have all seen the USA version spec of the HD2, obably air their feelings about the hardware upgrade, I just got mine less than a week ago, and then to read on the web about bugs and updates for the HD2 from HTC, but to read that the US t-mobile customer will have a higher spec is frustrating to every HD2 owners.
So I suggest we all write in to HTC direct, even if their excuse is it's exclusive to the "t-mobile USA" only as they requested for it. I have written in already, but am just one among thousands of htc HD2 owners out there, so the more customer request or support on this topic, they are likely to respond into doing something.
Higher Ram, Rom and a 16Gb of storage card, compare to what we received and most of us saved up, got ourselves tied in to an contract with an air time provider and also had to pay for the device.
Simply stating that let us all write in or email in requesting for either an exchange when the USA launch their model, or they provider us with a suitable alternative.
So join me HD2 OWNERS in making a petition to HTC about our concerns, that we all had to make some sort of sacrifice in getting the HD2, rather than any other competitive handset or device that is currently in the market.
Sorry For Going on so long and any bad grammar or repetition.
Sorry mate, but you've not got my personal backing on this. It's a different device - end of. It's not even on the market yet, and probably won't be for quite some time.
And also, I really have to question this statement...

It was in no way, shape, or form a sacrifice for me to get the HD2 over a competitor's handset. It was an easy choice, and the correct one for me. There is no handset in the world right now that suits me better than the one I've got.
I pretty much guarantee this thread turning into a flame war. I hope for your sake, and the sake of all those who do feel hard done by, that it doesn't.
Good luck
ok . sounds good .
BUT i dont think anything will happen , as far as receiving a new handset .
but i guess its worth a try .
Lol no wai, Im very happy with my hd2.
The usa hd2 will be beaten by another one in no time also.

Thanks for your reply, but to correct you, its not a different device, had got a responce from HTC uk branch that, it a demand put in by t-mobile Us network, not the Usa market, but the air provider.
All am stating that for the same device but higher spec's we deserve more than what we paid for, in the space of how many months of launching the HD2 device.
Whilst HTC have stated to a number of that T-Mobile requested higher specification, it seems that all HD2's have 576Mb of RAM, its just not being shown and that theres a chance that we've also got the 1Gb flash, but time will tell on that... so no I wont be doing it either...

I obviously disagree on what makes something a different device. Besides, even if they did offer me one of these as a replacement for my "old" HD2, it wouldn't work properly in my country, so it would actually be a worse handset for me to have.
Anyway, like I said, good luck.
I do not want to comment on the merits, or lack of, in mounting such an action (although I do feel strongly the futility of it), I do wish to point to the OP that his cross posting of the same message in other threads makes it look more like he is a troll or spammer. I suggest that he not do any more cross posting. Here is one example of cross posting in an unrelated thread, I am sure there are others.
Poor HTC
My company wanted to buy 60 htc hd2, on my suggestion.
After the news of the new model with 1GB of ROM and the unknown upgrade to the OS WM7, there was a stop to purchase.
At this point waiting a few days for the evolution of the market (tonight Apple's presentation).
I think that the mail of HTC is not necessary, the market is merciless.
Poor HTC, today again of -0.41% (international market).
I think it should nevertheless provide a review of business manager.

No its not a spam just an error on my part, and to be clear there is no malice intent with what am suggesting apart from hopefully informing HTC that if the Uk market should be offered either a higher spec for the uk market or an alternative good will gesture e.g 16Gb memory card, an extended battery e.t.c.
On the positive side HTc did get back to me stating the obvious of difference in spec of the same handset, but will be happy to forward my concerns to thee right department, now that doesn't mean my request has been granted but rather notice and something be DONE OR NOT but at least HEARD.
Thanks to everyone who responded, accepting both the ve+ and ne- feedback
I am happy with my HD2. More than happy infact.
It is blistering fast and I have modded, prodded and firmware changed it to death. loving the customization.
Mind you the 16GB card would be nice!
other than that I am perfectly happy

Okay, sorry for thinking you were spamming...........
As for 16GB memory card, how can you blame HTC for that? I can go around Taipei and see the HD2 sold with differing sizes of memory cards in different places. Or maybe you would like to pick a bone with Taiwan Mobile, who carries the phone with 16 GB of flash memory. It is the dealer or carrier who decides the size of the memory card, not HTC.
And, there is nothing new in HTC offering different variations on one phone. They started out as an OEM manufacturer. Check the XDA Developers Wiki on HTC's history that can be seen through the products they manufactured through the years. I do not remember in the past when a phone had an upgrade with another carrier that it created such irrational rage in some.
i can not say that i'm unhappy with my hd2, i got mine in october from the uk and it would indeed be nice if htc would give free upgrades but wait and see what newer roms will bring!
and as long as every hd2 will get the wm7 upgrade (if it comes) i'm not that much concerned
maybe if got an other device by then anyways *g*
nevertheless i will write htc about the issue cause i want to know what their response is!
Can we PLEASE close this thread?
There is no point to it. The US HD2 is different hardware and will never come to Europe, so there's absolutely no point in complaining that the European HD2 is different.
Those that complain here don't even understand that the US HD2 wouldn't work for them, anyway. Nobody has been "shafted", because everyone who bought the "old" HD2 would still have to buy the "old" HD2, because the "new" one just doesn't work here in Europe.
HTC had to make a different HD2 because of the TMO US 3G-Bands and maybe memory chips got cheaper, smaller or TMO wanted to have more, so they put more memory in it, beause they had to produce a different HD2 anyway. It's only natural that after half a year, better technology comes out. You can't buy any piece of tech and then complain that half a year later, something better is available.
The US HD2 is different hardware and there's absolutely no reason to complain. It will not work in Europe and HTC won't change the European version. Moreover, you can't expect anything you buy to still be the best after half a year. End of story.
It's true
It's true, but but at least call HD3 !!!!!!!!!!!! ( this is marketing )

I took my 386 into PC world the other day and they did a straight swap for a quad core 4.8GHz machine. They also apoligised for the fact that my PC only had 256MB RAM and gave me 8GB.

iphone sold 8.7 million devices in the christmas period..why did htc not try and get some of that market in the usa?
simple,they know the device was not working properly..
No, because it is no HD3.
And besides, we will probably get the HD3 half a year before the people in the US. That's only half a year later than their HD2. Does this give them the right to whine like little babies?

Our HD2 was produced half a year earlier. At that time, those chips probably simply weren't available or they were too expensive. The people in the US had to wait half a year longer than we did, now just let them enjoy their HD2. It's only natural that technology evolves with time.

OK guys would i be wrong in saying ( The evo is just a updated hd2 running android )
If it is then do you think HTC would make a firmware update so you could just flash the phone over to run android.
If you look at the clip's on youtube it looks like the same unite just with a 8mp cam hdmi port and a ugly back
yeah it is. i think it has more internal memory too and touch sensitive front buttons(i think). HTC could make an update but im pretty sure they wont as they are EXTREMELY slow when updating firmwares (look at the hero) and thats an android device.
ok well maybe the good guys on the site will sort it out

HTC said they will release an android rom when WM outsells the iphone, so get buying boys!!
if u think about it the hd2 and the evo 4g are like identical brothers but not twins.... now i think htc created the evo because android os is on the rising. plus i think the hd2 is much sexier when we r talking about hardware.... software can be put on any device so all im waiting for is the port. only thing evo has over the hd2 is the compatibility of using 4g service n android os, plus there was a test that was ran with sprints 4g vs t-mobile hspa network and t-mobile higher network speeds than sprints 4g...so who ever went to from t-mobile to sprint just for the 4g service just wasted money. if u think about it htc just made a lot of money creating 2 devices using different os. one thing i do hate about the hd2 software;1) wm uses too much mem for one dam app, 2) wm is tremendously outdated with their framework.
