Some would say that launching a device called iPhone a decade after the whole i- prefix went out of style would be a pretty bad decision too.
Edit: btw this entire thread belongs in Sapphire forum.

Black MyTouch3g
A friend of mine has it. They are not allowed to show it. Hope I don't get any one in trouble. But here is the black. I asked to borrow but no go. Sorry guys.
Edit...I post pic in a few.
Edit2...I edited pic since it would give away the party. Sorry guys, I used MS paint in about 1 min and did a horrible job. Ill have two pics. Ill try to edit after dinner. Enjoy as much as you can..
their are rumors going around that the samsung moment will get 2.1 on the 22nd. if that is true would someone jsut be able to port that over to the hero pretty easily since they are both cdma?
just curious
We already have the CDMA drivers done on the leaked 2.1 build. All we need to put in are 1. Camera drivers 2. Bluetooth drivers
Toast just got multitouch working, so yay!
yeah true, well bluetooth is what i really need and I actually kinda like stock 2.1 more than sense, i think its mostly because ive had sense for awhile and like change.
sprint reps officially stated that there is no plan to release any update on the 22nd of the sprint forum.
It is well known that we are going to rollout 2.1 for the Moment, so that's not a new revelation. To me the intent of the article is to predict the impending release and I felt I should set the expectation. Many folks have expressed they are confused and they get conflicting information or no information/silence and they have been given promises that go unfulfilled. Just look at the comments following that article from folks who are certainly going to be disappointed even if it has been tagged as unofficial.
Yes, the target date is still 1H2010 and while I don't intend to address all future posts containing future date predictions, I feel it is necessary to disclaim the end of February rumored date. Customers who read that article should not hope that the 2.1 software will be available so please don't call the stores, please don't call Customer Care, please don't call Samsung taking a chance on the software.
Instead, monitor the situation here. This is your best source for data, I promised I would return from time to time with some updates and anyone who believes that know that if the software was that close to launching, I would have posted about it (basically means I am "coming back with an update as we get closer"). So I'm sorry I had to be so strong with my characterization of that article but with the high expectations for this update and I wanted to make sure this didn't go anywhere. No software for neither Moment nor Hero on 2/22, sorry. Please be patient and check back here."

The whole point of Sprint's forum is damage control.
Do just the opposite. Call Customer Care as much as possible, Call Samsung / HTC.
yeah we really need this 2.1 update already.
As soon as the devs get the camera going i will run 2.1 as my daily rom. I dont use bluetooth so that doesnt matter
Anyone want to trade a moment for a hero? The keyboard or lack there of is killing me. I ve had the hero since release you would think I would be use to it by now.

Im with you on that.. and i can type pretty dam fast on it.. but its always wrong.. and I noticed its hyper sensitive... for instance, if i hover a finger over a virtual key it thinks Im long pressing it.. even though Im not touching it.. and if another text comes in while Im typing the key being pressed for that moment gets long pressed..
Haha I'm totally opposite you guys. I HATE physical keyboards. Back with AT&T, I switched a Samsung Eternity out for an Impression... big mistake. Not only the was the added bulk incredibly annoying, but the keyboard was SO innacurate, I just gave up on it and used the virtual keyboard. Trust me, virtual keyboards are better (if the keyboard isn't crap!). But have you guys tried Swype? I've been using it instead of the HTC keyboard, and I can type pretty accurately and fast now with it.

Yeah I did swipe for about a week. My main issue with V-KB's is that they take more focus. Its not that its anything wrong with it, I just cant bang out a text like I could on my Touch Pro.
As matter fact, I find myself not texting people back because I get annoyed with the KB, but seriously whats the best route for trading.
Update 9/22/10: Our 30FPS Saga has finally come to an end. HTC has released an OTA that officially uncaps the evo! HOORAY! To all of you who have contacted Sprint and HTC: THANK YOU! It made a difference.
If you are unrooted, simply go look for the update under your phone's settings.
If you are rooted and want to keep root, head over to developer section and download one of the many ROMs available with the latest OTA 3.29.651.5 .
-------------
BREAKING Update 9/21/10: So after almost 4 months, it seems like HTC is finally set to release an update that will officially uncap our EVOs!
Can't reveal source - but here you go. Was sent to me a little bit ago.
Software Version: HTC - EVO 4G (A9292) - 3.29.651.5
Release Date: 9/22/2010
Update Method: Available OTA + Retail
Version History:
Calendar Event Edit Issue
Multiple Gmail Account Sync
30 FPS uncapped
GPS Reboot

The update will supposedly be released tomorrow. Will update this post when/if it happens.
Sources: SDX-Developers, PPCGeeks
-------------------------------
Update 6/14/10: Got a call from Dan Hesse's Office(CEO). Here's what happened:
1. Sprint has reached out to HTC about this issue. They acknowledge the problem and said they are working on a Firmware update that will address this. However, they could not give us an exact time frame.
2. The engineer at HTC encouraged us to go to HTC support and send emails to them about this issue so it gets more attention internally, and hopefully speed things up.
Also, I asked her to relay a message to Dan Hesse, Saying that this might not seem like a big deal at first, but it is in fact a huge one. Customers, especially those coming from an iPhone, expect their phones to "just work", and even if they don't notice it at first, that 30fps cap will get them frustrated at some point, and they will erroneously attribute it to developer, the phone or Sprint, hurting everyone in the process.
She also said Sprint wants this resolved, but they are pretty much at HTC's mercy right now.
Alright boys and girls, it's time to bother HTC!
Visit HTC support here:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/e-mail
and send your Email to them.
At this time I would advise against sending "template" emails because once they start receiving several of the same they can just filter them out. Remember, they are a huge company, they have the tools. Speak with your heart this time.
=====================
Update 6/12/10: Check out the end of this post. Help us contact HTC and Sprint about this issue. Even if you don't own an Evo. HTC got away with it twice already. Let's at least make sure this issue is well known. Like a developer said:
This is like buying a brand new corvette and finding out it has a governor on it limiting it to 100 horsepower. If a car manufacturer did this, there would be a class action lawsuit instantaneously. Don't be shy guys, let the world know how you feel!

Update 6/11/10: I got a response from one of Sprint's executive team. He has asked the product team to investigate and will follow up with me afterwards. Will keep you guys posted.
HTC is capping all graphics , 2D AND 3D, at only 30fps max. This is having a negative impact on the responsiveness of the system in general, and for developers that rely on real time game development.
See this:

And this:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=8942 Please star the issue on that page so more people, and hopefully htc, will be aware of the problem.
I have also tested this app:
http://www.typhon4android.org/androidbugs/droid2dtest-21/
When I run the app, "Clock FPS" is trying to push 60fps but it is limited by the display at 30hz, only to show 30fps max.
This also explains why the evo 4g is consistently getting terrible graphics benchmark scores. The Nexus One, despite having the same processor and gpu, is not affected by this problem.
Is this ever going to be fixed?

wow..... I should toss that app on froyo and try it.
No change with froyo... that's not good.
You say HTC is capping the framerate.. Is this a hardware cap, then? Meaning, do you see this on a rooted / custom rom? I'm using unrevoked for root, so I can't test..
Oh no. This is like the HTC tilt all over again with the graphics not living up to their potential.
Sent from my HTC Evo using tapatalk.
Could it have anything to do with the HDMI out? Maybe they're trying to sync to a framerate that their HDMI implementation can handle. Just guessing.
Well how fast can the screen refresh that's what the fps should be locked to

Sorry, I dont buy it. Nexus one does it with nary a hiccup, and it has the same exact resolution, processor and gpu.
I can also confirm it's not the LCD that's limited-- When you flash the experimental Froyo rom, the Nexus One-style "X" boot screen animation is clearly running at 60fps. So it looks like this is happening at boot.

NOOOO! This was the reason when I had my tilt that justified the switch to iphone 3g, Then I got a 3gs, and I swore to never buy another HTC product again because of the tilt and there lack of gpu drivers. I swear if that type of crap is going on again I'm returning my Evo and getting iphone 4. And I really like my evo!
HTC is really playing this game still? I went from my Tilt to my iPhone back to HTC and the Evo and now they are doing the same crap with the Tilt?
Eh.... Annoying.
I swore I'd never get anothet HTC phone after the Touch and Mogul...the EVO made a liar out of me...but maybe not for long.
Seems like if Gingerbread is suppose to be official before the end of the year, something should have leaked by now. An early test build, some screenshots, maybe some video? All we have seen are a couple of shopped screenshots that show 3.0 as the build
Someone out there must know or have seen something Throw us a bone here!
It hasn't been leaked because you touch yourself.
Because people don't like breaking NDAs and losing their jobs?
Google will release it when they release it.
+1 to the poster above.
And judging by Froyo experience, I guess Nexus users will see "semi-official" test builds way before the official release, once these builds make it to beta stage.

Well that's what I'm saying. When Google showed Froyo at Google IO, it didn't OTA until almost 2 months after that. I was assuming that we would see a Gingerbread OTA before the end of the year. If timetables are similar that won't happen.
It just seems like we got more leaks and now its dried up lol

The only thing we've actually seen is some chicken little claiming that it would take a modern supercomputer to run it -- and THAT has been refuted.

a google campus recruiter was at my university today. he was playing with a nexus one so i told him that i have one also. he said his was different so I asked him why and peeked at his screen and he suddenly pulls down the notification bar and says "oh it has at&t". this seemed like a silly reason so i asked what build he was running and he told me he couldn't say. I asked if it was gingerbread and he said yes. i asked him if he could tell me about new features and he said no.
i got some google chapstick and a google pen though.
I have been hoping leaks would start soon considering Gingerbread is supposed to be unveiled in mid October. I expect to see devices in the latter part of Nov.
Just like when 1.0 was unveiled and 2.0 was unveiled. They were followed by a device about a month after.

Yes it does sound interesting. I would be disappointed also if this were to be the device. Just not into any type of tablet, "industry first" or whatever.

If it was done right a 4.x" phone that converts to an 8.x" tab would be cool but I don't see "them"coming up with a good enough solution for coupling them to work as one big screen. If it feels like using a Nintendo DS then I won't be parting with an upgrade for it.
omg, dual screen tablet! hell yeah!
you might not think it would be cool at first but think of the possibilities!
run an app on one screen and browse on another, or be typing out something on one and using the second to show reference material, or have one be the screen and other be a touch keyboard, dungeon defenders on one and IM on the other,
best reason -> xda on one and the other be waiting on that f#@&in 1 min timer for the download websites

Dual-Screen Android Tablet Sprint’s “Big Announcement” for February 7th?
7 Comments 18 January 2011 by Dylan Bailey
Worth Reading?
+3 [3 votes]
Just last week Sprint sent out an email to the press inviting them to a special event where they will release an “Industry First.” The internet went crazy with rumors as to exactly what this industry first could be. Was it a 4G iPhone? Probably not, all Android sites were invited to the event. Now we may have a little bit more information as to exactly what it could be – a dual-screen Android tablet.
According to someone apparently close to the matter, the announcement will be a device and will feature the following:
It has large screens- think somewhere between the Evo and the Galaxy Tab.
It actually has dual screens- there’s a primary one but then also a secondary screen that flips up from the back, like on a hinge.
No word on what that second screen does, if it integrates with the primary screen to give you one big screen, or if you can run an app on each, or what. Sorry I couldn’t get more details.
No official word on if it’s voice-capable, or if it’s some kind of tablet/slate.
Also of note, HTC has been in the headlines supposedly preparing a 3D device. Could this be the device? Two screens for a 3D effect? If so, this would even tie in with the whole David Blaine theme of illusions, eye tricks, etc.
What do you think? Could this be a dual-screen tablet? Would a dual-screen tablet be a viable option in the competitive market? Let us know!

Well, this could be good news. If it is a dual screen, it could also mean that its dual core?
Hopefully its marketed as a phone, and not a tablet (has calling, texting, etc..)
Ok, so apparently no one else thought to show that this is NOT an industry first:
Dualbook anyone?

That thing is e-ink, its not running Android, and finally is not a phone (I'm wishing here ).
Toshiba and Acer showed off dual screen devices at CES. Neither of them were classified as a tablet (both classified as dual screen laptops) , neither of them run Android, and neither of them have phone capabilities.
I've always dreamed of a phone that folded open (clamshell) with a continuous screen (using flexible AMOLED display) but we are a long way from that.
Ugh, not sure what to make of that. Will wait and hold off the hate until I hear more. Provided it's true.
I'm scared.

Toshiba and Acer showed off dual screen devices at CES. Neither of them were classified as a tablet (both classified as dual screen laptops) , neither of them run Android, and neither of them have phone capabilities.
I've always dreamed of a phone that folded open (clamshell) with a continuous screen (using flexible AMOLED display) but we are a long way from that.

Actually, the dualbook does in fact run android.
