Hello Guys
I lost my Nexus One and I want to buy a cheap mobile because I dont have money
I found HTC Dream ( G1 ) and HTC Tattoo at the same price
i want one that dont run like crap and roms work great on it
can you help me chose from them ?
and thank you
NOT DEVELOPMENT RELATED MOVED TO GENERAL
I would go for the G1 I think. It has a better screen, and official Froyo support meaning camera and stuff works in custom roms.
I'd go for the Tattoo, G1 has a crappy amount of RAM and internal memory which makes it slow as hell with new ROMs
I think in this period the best buy is the Xperia X8 (170-180€)...One of the cheaper capacitive screen phone on the market
Magic...you Will have a more big captive screen...3d and froyo fully working...and you have the support of cyanogen and a lot of more too choose...MAGIC ALL THE LIFE...

ZTE Blade.
Or failing that, G1
I would go for Magic but A32 with 288MB ram.
If you want the bigger screen and keyboard go for the G1. But know that it's a lot bigger and chunky. Tattoo has better hardware, apart from the screen, and is very nice and comfortable to carry.
But i;m not sure if you will be happy with either since you are coming from N1
Go for magic,white magic

Heyas! just wondering what people would choose... i already have the Hero but the wife is due a new phone.. so i could get away with giving her the Hero and grabbing a HD2 for myself if i wanted to
So,, other than that MAAAHHOOOSIVE screen on the HD2... another other benefits over the Hero?? or Vise versa?
Which would you choose and why?
cheers!
I am moving from my hero to HD2 . Why? I prefer large screen , I like wm6.5 , 1ghz processor and I am hoping the HD2 has a stronger gps signal . Also the hero chin makes 2 hands typing harder. Wm6.5 has lots of good software.the hero is a great device but the wow factor of the HD2 is too much got mine on order from clove.
Get the HD2 is a no brainer, since this is a HD2 forum section that has thousands of positive posts
Hd2, best device on the market now!!
Look buddy you know you can't resist, so why even ask? Get the HD2!
yes, definitly HD2 but it is your decision
Hi i currently have one HTC Tattoo and i'm quite happy with it but for 60€ diference i could switch to an HTC Magic (HTC Sapphire: myTouch 3G, Magic) .
Would i have a huge difference switching to HTC Magic or would it be minimal?
Thanks for you help
i personally bought Tattoo for the fact than i can make it look diferent from the rest and it's smaller than hero and nexus and it's not geeky like them! now thanks to the developers that worked on Tattoo I think it's not a big difference betwen magic and al the others...

Now that the Magic has Sense UI, go for it!
In performance terms there's much difference?
The screen is bigger and better resolution. I own a tattoo and like its relative smallness but I think the magic is also better looks wise.
Maybe you could hold on for a month and get either the desire or legend. I am looking at one of these as my next phone.
Maybe i'll play for now with my tattoo and then go for something more powerfull since i dont know the platform that well.
The tattoo lags a little sometimes when i scroll, hope that's fixable in android 2.0 or 2.1
That isn't something that needs to be fixed on the OS itself. Even if your phone has a faster processor, then it'll run smoothly on 1.6 also.
Hey i have a htc TATTOO RUNNING 1.6 and i am tiered of it is there a way to get 2.0 or 2.x pls tell me how u cn do it or where i cn get the file my email address is [email protected]
The difference between then are the screen dimension an better resolution. the rest are the same. Tattoo beats Magic at birth day, the little Android it's newer and the only HTC device with customizable cases.
Hello Every Body
I am planning to buy the HTC Wildfire but one told me that it dont have custom roms like the disire

aria is for AT&T only and Wildfire is much better that HTC Aria
If you read through this forum (and some search) I am sure your questions have been answered in one way or other. For example you asked "Does it have problem?" of course it has problems in some ways, just read the forum, you'll understand what is meant.
I am new so please help me now and answer the the questions here

Why is that? On paper Aria seems to have better specs (at least when it comes to screen resolution)
what are the things that do I have to check them before buying it ?

Dude, why don't you just do some basic reading around instead if troubling other people for extremely basic information you could fins out yourself?

[Q] Hello Everyone
Dear All,
I am new to this section, however associated with this forum since 2008, I am using HTC Excalibur presently and shortly planning to shift to Wildfire, I am looking for your suggestions & advices whether should I go for this device or else.
Respect for All
Peace
Karan Adhikari
I personally think this is a great device and it is brilliant value for money but there are 2 major flaws for me:
Speed:
I find it a bit laggy and it is not as nippy as, say, the desire. This is mainly because of it's slower, 528 MHz processor but it is not meant for speed and meant to be a budget phone.
Display:
The screen is very low res (QVGA to be precise). This low resolution means that not all apps are available on the Android Market and that sometimes text is a bit hard to read.
Despite those issues, if you want a good, budget android phone then go for the Wildfire.
Both of the above. If you can afford it, the desire is a better device but, for the price, the Wildfire is an excellent device.

One reason I bought the Wildfire over the Desire is its more compact size......will report my experience back shortly.....
Hi guys,
I might buy a HD2 and I want to do everything that a current DHD or DesireZ can do. So keeping this in mind what are things that I shouldnt expect from HD2 ?
Does it delivers every thing that a nexus one /desire/DZ/DHD deliver ?
I wanted to buy DHD... But its not available in US. Its quite expensive also. And no other options for 4.3 Inch screen
Thanks, Help me decide whether or not to buy this phone as an altenative for desire Z/Desire HD

I don't quite understand what you're asking. You're asking for help with a decision, but from what I'm reading, there is only one option?
To answer your more obvious question, I believe development for DHD/DHZ has stagnated, and the only thing it's missing is the camera. Not sure when/if devs will finish that. The Evo, desire, and nexus builds are pretty much 100% done though

If you're in the US, why don't you buy an Evo? I'm sure the new Sense will be ported to it (if it hasn't been already).
If you want the ability to switch between Windows Mobile and different Android builds, get the HD2.
If you want a native Android phone with similar (not the same though, before the pedants flame me) hardware to the HD2 get the Desire.
If you want a more up dated similar Android phone get the Desire HD.
If you want a hardware keyboard get the Z.
Thats pretty much it sport
Thanks
Coming to a conclusion that this phone is not a pure native android phone
Its better I w8 for Nexus S or go with DHD
As a TMOUS user I would just get the Desire HD if it was my first phone and I had the upgrade option. But I didnt, so I wanted the next best thing, a phone I could convert into a Desire HD, which was the HD2. I found one new in the box on craigs list for $250 and shelled out. Studied up on modding it and made it look like the Desire HD.
I'm also a TMOUS user and found one of craigslist for under 200. Until they come out with a new 4.3 android phone, this will be it for me. I don't get the data drops and the only issue I come across is the 10 second lag in autorotate with the touchscreen. I'll take that. If the Desire HD (or comparable) ever comes to the US that's what I will move to
Looks like camera fix is available on Desire HD builds now....
what you shouldn't expect a droid hd2...prefection.some builds are still WIP or some bugs not resolved.
then we have the nand camp who wants droid on their fone,wiping out winmo completely.this is still WIP.and still some impt issues not resolved.
other than that,hd2 is pretty impressive even with stock winmo.not that much of a diff between dhd other than a updated hardware.
if you like cutomising the hell out of ur fone but lack the money,go for hd2.you get spoilt to booting winmo cooked rom or droid builds available in the forums.

I dont know how you don't know that? It's a windows mobile 6.5 phone. How can a windows phone be a pure native android phone? If you are looking for a phone that can do exactly what a DHD or a Desire Z, you would have to get one of those phones as no other phone currently runs the new htc sense. The closest phone to a DHD or a Desire Z in US is an EVO 4G.
I want Android Phone, for the first moment, I think I would buy Desire, but after search alot on XDA, then I got Confuse, cos HD2 Is very good to handle Android.... I want purely using Android on HD2 (Windows doesn't count).
Should I buy HD2 or Desire? what pros and cons each of them?
please help me to choose....
sorry for my english
Well seeing that you posted this in the android section your answer is most likely to be an hd2 but this has noting to do with question and answers snout android on the hd2

I have Nexus One and HD2. I love them both
HD2 with android is real fast, faster then my nexus (your HD2 can have 1900 point on quadrant standard- my nexus only have 1650)
The digitizer on HD2 is easy to break (a lot people have screen response problems)
The battery on nexus one is last longer (U don't worry to run out battery in mid afternoon)
If they both cost the same for you, then you might as well get the Desire HD. The only reason people put android on the HD2 is because it was the only 4.3" superphone on Tmobile's network, and it was crippled with Windows OS.
If you only plan on running android, I would get a native android phone.

its better to run android nativly. get the desire,
if you want a HD2 running android, get a Desire HD,
HD-2 is only cool because we can customize the SHYT out of it. Flash a new rom every day if you like. With the Desire HD you will most likely be stuck with the same ole same ole and that may get OLD to you after a few months. So you have to decide if you like doing what most of us do wich is Flash the He11 out of our phone.
First of all we dont 'flash' anything by putting and android rom on out sd card. Secondly the desire hd can be rooted soon, and there will be tons of stuff 4 it! Youre askin this question in the wrong forum. Why? Coz we all have leos! The answer is simple: if u want native droid, get the desire!
I like the developement, so im sticking with my LEO!

hd2 on desire hd rom will be realy sweet.
and to answer your question,like someone said earlier,hd2 has one of the most impressive hardware during that time when it was released and it was crippled by winmo.
not that winmo is bad or anything,its jus that winmo target mainly business users and not for entertainment.(etc ifone)
so you get a powerful fone with crappy software making it a test to you as a human when using this device.
if you got $$$ to burn,buy desire hd.its android and the fone is build for it.
you wan to tinker with your fone,buy hd2,tinker away and bliss out on your sofa.
take a look at the forums and read the android development,Q&A for hd2.you can get all the answers to whatever questions you might have to ask.
