I know...root and install cm7

No root for it yet, so I'll stay on CM7.

I've been waiting for this for my wife's phone for a very long time. She'd never let me put CM on her phone, she likes Sense too much.

Download HTC Sync and install it.

Anyone else getting FCs when launching the web browser?

i hate sense, is there any way to kill it with froyo? i like the look of the stock ui better.

Only option is to download a 3rd party launcher like ADW or LauncherPro. Deleting the Sense launcher would cause a bunch of problems considering the framework depends on Rosie if I'm not mistaken.

anyone know where else I can download it?

Downloading for my wife and daughter and the speeds are just horrible.

Not familiar with getting updates this way, I usually flash roms and stuff, but will updating this way erase everything?
Thanks for any help!

We should stop suggesting people use custom roms in this thread and stick to talking about experiences with the official update. How are people liking it? Issues?

I agree; the thread title is pretty clear as to the topic of discussion.
Loaded it on the wife's Slide. Download speeds from HTC were truly absurd; took 3 hours to get the necessary files. I flashed chiefz version of this when I was still using the Slide ... I found the leaked ROM to be sluggish compared to 2.1 stock; I've found the 2.2 official update to be virtually identical to chiefz version - a bit sluggish. I definitely like having the wireless "hotspot" on her un-rooted slide; helps to share our two 5gb data plans wirelessly. I tried to move a few large apps to sd (Froyo a2sd) and apps that should be able to be moved were not able to be moved and I'm unsure if that's due to not having root. HTC sync and bluetooth have turned on by themselves after I disabled them in settings ... very odd. My wife doesn't seem care one way or the other but I'm a root user so I have a different take on things. The bottom line is it keeps the system as it always has been and adds some useful features. It appears some bugs were fixed from the release notes but I have a suspicious feeling a whole new set of bugs may crop up. With all the time that has passed I believe HTC could have done a better job. Hoping the wife is is happy with it because I will never hear the end of it if she prefers the old stock ROM. Fingers crossed ...

Face unlock data usage?

Recently I started to check my data usage via ics's feature in the settings menu. What I came across surprised me big time.

That's strange indeed.

I wonder if they are doing some algorithm computation which is tied to their database and have to send data back and forth. Kind of like voice recognition. Try putting the phone in airplane mode and then use face unlock. I wonder if it will default to the preset pattern.

This is what I was thinking too.
I went to the security settings and found out my phone doesn't have face recognition (AOKP ms4) I could have sworn I've tried it out before haha.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk

ok, at first i was joking obviously
But after downloading a zip to flash Face Unlock for my phone..it's kinda got me wondering lol
For one, I took a screenshot of the first page when setting it up. Last point says all the info is saved on your phone. (see below)
2nd, I've been using it for a few hours now and i have no face unlock data usage as of yet. I'll check it again tomorrow afternoon.

You click on an app under data usage and it will show you the percentage used by that app.
Btw I don't see how you can think its photo shopped when it's 100% legitimate.

Evo update

So the evo update that came out a couple days ago, was updated to include sprints connection thingy. Very interested to know if this can be incorporated or ported to work for us. I use juice defender when not at home and this sounds like a sprint replacement of that app basically. Interested to see how it works out.

What "evo update"?
What is "sprint's connection thingy"?

http://m.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-updated-sprint-connections-optimizer

This is the evo SHIFT forum. Not the evo 4g forum...

He knows that, he was asking if it would be able to be ported over to the SHIFT.

I agree, although it'll probably be a late update compared to some of the other devices and is not official from HTC yet, does not mean they won't do it

The old palm pre had a similar homebrew app that did this. It worked pretty well; however, it took a toll on the battery because GPS and other location services were on constantly.

Looking at the womans epic which also got this in the last update, there aren't much for options, looks like everything is pretty much automatic. Its not a seperate app, its actually built into the system settings under mobile networks. Looks like this is being pushed to all/most devices so I wouldn't be supprised at this point if sprint comes out with another update for us to include this. I'm going to keep an eye on her connections and see if I can notice it working and how well.

This polls your location every so often, not a constant update on location. Also uses cell location, not just gps. Sprint has included this as a battery saver as well as a connection optimizer. Controls 3g, 4g, and wifi.

new NOTE user :)

Just sold my Galaxy S2...........
just purchased a Note,so far so good...whatascreen !

Hi Dennis,
I just picked up a Note, too. I'm new to Android and I was thinking about rooting to get the ICS update early. Which method will you be using?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

Welcome both, I hope you're as pleased with your phone as I am. I'd strongly suggest having a good read of Dr Ketan's root guide in the development section. Chances are you'll need to downgrade to root and the doc's guide is excellent.

I am new android user as well. Just bought my note. Is there ics update for dummies lol

Another new G note user here, day 1. Been on a couple of other Android phones. Boy, thus screen is massive. How on earth can you guys Swype singlehandedly?
The wifi upgrade to ICS was flawless. Personally, there is nothing to complain about.
Rooting the phone soon, and joining the crowd.

Hey! Yes, very pleased with it. I'm a little disappointed with the Android email apps, though. I've come from an iPhone so I was used to good email on that. I just can't find an Android app that comes close. But other than that, I can't fault the Note.
Thanks for that; I'll check it out.

I use Gmail for most stuff myself and don't need much functionality in the standard email app. A lot of people seem to use K9 very happily though. Worth a look?
