Hy guys
1.What's the next phone that you want to buy?
2.Thinking about a nokia with WP7 or an iPhone ???
Please motivate your posts...i just want to see what you guys think around here
Haha, you made a new thread, I saw your post in that other thread
On-topic: 1:What I know is that next spring/ summer I will probably buy *something*. Either a tab or a phone, it depends on how cheap the tabs have gotten. It will either have dual-core or quad-core, we'll see if phones really need more in the future, it all depends on the software development. I don't know if HTC or Samsung and I don't even know if I'm buying Android. It will of course be something Linux, but there are some other nice projects like WebOS and MeeGo as well out there I'm not that found of HTC Sense and I prefer Go Launcher, but as I'm very fond of my HTC phone and Samsung is a bit plastic... Last, if I buy a phone, I want it to have a 3.7 or 4 inch screen. I think 4.3 is too big, but I still want that awesome hardware of the 4.3 phones
2: iPhone: NO WAY!!! Many iPhone guys say that Android is for those who cannot afford iPhone, I say iPhone is for those who are too stupid for Android
Nokia: ... Probably not, as they're going for Windows which is not as open as these other awesome OS
thanks for the post...as i wrote, i just want to see how hero users will go with the next generation of phones or tablets...seems that i'm not the only one that thinks about a tablet instead a phone...
Well i have to wait 2 years to renew my contract xD but i think i will buy one that let me modifie as my vibrant does, you know flashing, themed it

Nice phone...it's big and fast I think of a sensation, because it has a nice offer on vodafone [140 euros] and it's worth a shot..but in the same time...i think on a tablet...an eeepad with tegra 3
Thanks for the answer

Nice phone:d. Seems that will be a big competition when google will release the new nexus and lots of other phones :-"...since they have motorola now
Thanks for the answer, Stefan
Although I absolutely love my hero, I feel, that in the not too distant future (in a months time), I will be getting a new handset, It will be a Android handset, as I love the way it can be customised etc lol, well, I would like to get a SGS2/Sensation, but thats out of my price range....So it will probably be a Desire or a Sony Ericsson handset, Possibly a motorola defy

Motorola will soon release and upgraded version og the Defy with 1ghz prosessor, so wait for that because: 1: The original Defy will be way cheaper 2: the upgraded one will be worth about as much as the old one

Seems that the next phone from htc, the Vigor is quite a super machine...specs include a 1.5 GHz processor and a HD display...but i think it will cost a lot...Wonder what the next iphone will have on board
As for the defy it will be @ 1GHz single core but will be cheap i think.
After reading about the new Sense 3.5 running on the 800 MHz bliss wonder if the hero can run it also...

Haha, its pretty big xD I still gotta wait for 2 more years for my contract to finish
I still have my Hero
Moved on to HTC HD7 - windows phone loved it but NODO didnt help me much
Updated to MANGO recently and really love what Mircosoft is doing so will definately be going for a NOKIA WP7 next Year
Currently enjoying my SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 - Android Phone and love they way I can flash all the latest firmwares without the need to root
So for you I would suggest Either wait for Nokia to come out with windows phone (SEARAY is their first phone to come out )
or
Wait of NEXUS PRIME / MIUI PHONE / or IPHONE 5 which ever takes your fancy
I'm going for the HTC HD2.
Advantage? I can have whatever I want. WP7, Android, WM (even Ubuntu).
It still has good hardware for the time being, and I simply love the design.

how many of you think that there will be a stable and usable Android ROM on HD2 in a month ?
(I must decide between Desire and HD2 in a week,and want HD2 because of the 200$ lower cost but hate WinMo !)

So, your poll is to gauge the likelyhood of an Android->HD2 port to help your buying decision? Bro, if I wanted Android that bad I'd just buy an Android phone. Never get people that would even ponder buying a WinMo device then beg/stress for an Android port LOL
If it's any help in your decision - apparently HTC has run out of the AMOLED screens and will be packaging the Desire with an LCD screen.

I hear ya! I do like Android, I spend quite a bit of time playing with and flashing her rooted Desire. She often tells friends that I have 2 phones and she goes without lol.
It's nice my friend to play with 2 operating systems in one phone but my opinion is, don't by a phone that you don't like just because it's cheaper.
Android will run on HD2 but don't expect it to run flawlessly, like it would run on an android phone.
If you like android buy android.
There are people that think there's going to be a perfect android port in a month???
Seriously... look at all the other android ports for other winmo phones.... some have been developed for years, and are still nowhere near perfect. Most of them are hardly usable on a daily basis as your main os. Most have severe battery issues and can only last a few hours, almost none can use camera, some don't have sound, bluetooth, 3d, etc... I wuoldn't expect a port that you would want to use on a daily basis instead of winmo on the HD2 for at least a year.... and that would be some quick development.
Seriously people... if you are seriously interested in android ports... do some research. Read about the development of the other ports for winmo devices. They take a long time. You can't expect it to miraculously work perfectly in a few months. I really can't believe the poll results are almost even results right now.... it's ridiculous to think your gonna be using android on your HD2 like it was an android phone anytime soon.
mate you have to be kiding in one month
you have high expetations lol
Even if they got Android working with in the next month it would not be fully working. Try looking over the other builds for other phones that have been ported for the last year or so and you will find that they still have problems getting all the hardware to work.
If you want Android that bad then you best forget about the HD2 as an option.
Thanks for the replies , I will wait a little bit longer (for the cash! ) and may seriously consider Desire !
Like some others I'm getting a little tired of my x10, not going to go into details about this.
BUT, I read somewhere that people are beginning to be able to run android - 2.1, 2.2, even saw 3.0 somewhere (might have been fake) - on their HD2 devices. It also seems like this is something that is improving at a constant rate.
Now, my question is, how competent would the hd2, running android, be as a replacement to the x10 (tbh to me it seems like there won't be much change with 2.1 for x10)? How do they compare hardware wise?
Anyone got any info on this?
thanks ahead of time
For one... 3.0 doesn't exist.
As they compare hardware wise, the HD2 has a 4.3 inch screen, does it not? To me, that's a little too large for a phone. (The X10 is already huge at 4 inches).
Otherwise, if you wanna move to an HD2 running a hacked version of Android when the similarly sized, but much more powerful Desire HD is coming out, more power to you.... I'd choose to not be stuck with "older" hardware if I were going to change phones six months after buying a different one.
I have previously owned an HD2. While, yes, you can run Android, it's not ideal. First of all, it does not have the ability to load Android in ROM. It runs it in a dual-boot mode and Android runs off the SD card. The presents a few issues and compromises of it's own. This also opens the door to some serious corruption of the device reboots or the SD card is accidentally removed while it is running.
I wouldn't recommend this at all.

I'm aware that the htc desire hd would probably be the best choice. But the thing is, I purschased the x10 while it was brand new for around 600£, so I'm not willing to pay for a new pricey high-end phone just yet. However, I thought that I would be able to find someone willing to swap my x10 for a hd2, one for one (I wouldn't lose more money, and I would still get a new experience with a new phone running 2.2).
And regarding the size I actually think the bigger the better (TWSS..).
Any ideas on how the two phones compare in raw hardware though?
why don't you just read the specs on gsmarena or something...
http://htcdesire-hd.blogspot.com/2010/09/desire-hd-free-map-app.html
look there, a hd2 is running the htc desire hd rom. It seems relatively stable!
HD2 is a good phone with no design. HTC is not a phone designer to me. I had it when it was running WM and then ported 2.1 and 2.2 and then I moved to X10. They are sort of stable but not flawless. Hd2 is sort of big and out of proportion. Hardware specs are good but if you are willing to spend the money and move to HTC(if design doesn't bother you) I recommend to wait for the HTC HD.
You have put-up with SE for a while and if you wait for a month or so you will have 2.1.
If you are a geek and like to flash new stuff twice a day and play with them with less battery, go for it or wait for something that at least is running android originally.
I really like the HD2 running winmo alone....would I trade my X10 for it? That would depend on how much better 2.1 is gonna be.....pretty much I'm down to the fact that 2.1 will make or break the X10 for a lot of people. If 2.1 isn't that much better even after this delay ill trade it in a heartbeat for an HD2..however if 2.1 proves to be worth the wait...HD2 can kiss my ass. As for the desire hd I think id give up my X10 and an HD2 for it...that thing is gonna be a beast!

Forget HD2
Get a full Android phone, grown up from the ground as an Android phone
Ah, and search for one with Froyo out of the box

Definitely not worth even if HD2 is loaded with Android as the hardware is not as good as X10 like the battery which is still on 1230mah lithium ion battery and HD2 is only using 5MP camera while HD2 is on 8.1MP camera.
Even though Desire HD is out, it is still using the same battery as HD2 so the battery life will only have slight improvement though it is using an improved processor chip which consume less battery power.
In terms of hardware specs or technology, HTC is no way better than SE.

Why wouldn't you just trade it for a proper Android phone like the HTC Desire? Sell your X10, then buy a used Desire. Both phones should be worth about the same amount of money.

Get a milestone 2 that's going to be a better phone. I reckon anyway but always wait for at least a month after a new phone comes out. So you can see what is the best for your needs, I've learnt my lesson from x10.

You are right in some ways but you must remember that HTC provide firmware upgrade till a limit and basically those upgrades are to resolve those bugs which they have left out and not add in extra features.
I have used before HTC phones ranging from Diamond, Touch Pro, Diamond 2, Touch Pro 2 and finally HD2, it is a pain for every firmware upgrade as all my data will be gone and I have to backup before performing firmware upgrade. They should gather all the bugs or problems at one go and released one firmware instead of so many.
No matter how many firmware upgrades you have, the hardware limitation is there and this is a fact that you cannot do anything unless you change phone.
At least, I have a higher spec hardware and with software upgrade which is more flexible as you can add in extra features in the later part to enhance user's experience.
Basically, those are the different type of marketing strategy used by the two companies, end users have the choice to choose what phone to change or use and you have to try different brands of phones before you know each phone manufacturer's bad and good points.
Just sharing my experience as I have tried different phones before knowing which phone manufacturer suits me more and having better technology in their hardware.

For the moment because i cant afford other phone i`m sticking with my X10 but in the future maybe next year or so i`ll defenetly no gonna buy a Se product and i`ll go with HTC ...this is what i think for the moment But anyway lets get back to the topic i think android is better for now than wm6.5 but not x10 android ... )
I just bought an HD2 because I found it dirt cheap (Telstra edition, works in Canada), but I'll be keeping my X10 until I figure out which one suits my needs better... (And that 2.1 will be out) I'll then sell the phone that has the least potential. The NAND edition of Android is supposed to be released soon though and dual boot is a really nice option... So we'll see which one comes out on top!
So... It looks as though Hero development may end with Gingerbread (2.3). Honeycomb (3.0) looks very tablet orientated and some devs are already stating it may be hard to port it.
My question is, after the resilient little Hero, what would be the next best handset to move to? A lot of people have mentioned the Desire HD or the Desire Z, but I'd like to hear from you guys, what do you think?
Update: I prefer a HTC handset myself, but which would be a good one to move to for the next set of decent ROMs??
I also believe, that after getting fully operational 2.3 with 2.6.35 kernel it will be pretty much it
Contracts are ending (I have one more year to go), developers are moving to other projects.
I hope that we will have one day "[GPL][2.3][2.6.35]Final Rom for hero".
After hero? Well, perhaps some crazy samsung device (although their quality isn't as good as HTC). I'm sure I'll stick with android, one of the best choices ever made
cheers!
I'll keep my Hero until a Tegra 2 device is realeased
I'm going to hang on to my hero for as long as possible... But I'm starting to think the Nexus S might be the next decent handset to move to, no-ones started developing ROMs yet though... Although I did notice Cyanogen had created a thread in his forum for it
I think 2.3 is maximum for Hero. Honeycomb is likely their requirements opportunities Hero.

I have to admit, this looks like the root (sorry!) I'm most likely to take.
The Nexus S seems to be a decent choice
But after putting froyo on my hero for the first time and seeing how fast it became, I think I can wait for the next reference phone
Hopefully, the next one will have a full RGB AMOLED instead of the Pentile PoS on the current Nexus S
On my next phone I'm looking for:
Tegra 2 or similar, perhaps dual core hummingbird with dedicated gpu
300+ dpi RGB AMOLED screen
Proper capacitative multitouch
Hard buttons
NO FINGERPRINT MAGNET, minimal gloss&plastic, good materials
In any case, would Honeycomb be for tablets? I assumed that honeycomb won't come to phones

personally, i think there will be a version of Honeycomb for phones, when the dual core handsets become more readily available. maybe a 'cut down' version.
i have Hero for like 8 months now. Pretty good phone, but still a little bit slow, only compared to other smartphones (but as a phone, it is great).
But yesterday i bought SGS.

it depends on your needs i think. if you're flashjunky like me our hero will end soon i think because the processors won't be enough soon.
and also be careful about screen, only desire (not z nor hd) has amoled screen. so for better screen sharpness, you may get desire for now. and also it gets great scores

It's looking like a HTC Desire at the moment. I was told to avoid the Desire and go for a Desire HD or Desire Z. Not sure why though, the Desire is the only one of the three with an AMOLED display...
I've had the Hero for just over a year now, and honestly, jailbreaking it has given it a new lease of life. That said though, it's definitely not gonna get 3.0 by the looks of things, and I'd rather not get left behind in terms of software updates. I will likely get an HTC or a Samsung; both companies make good hardware that's pretty powerful. I have considered buying a Nexus S outright, but it's kinda beyond my budget right now...

Completely agree with you. I bought a Hero when my iPhone went t*ts up.
But my concern was that the newer versions of Android are going to require faster hardware and there will come a point where the Hero just won't be able to cut it anymore. So what's the next best handset to go up to? At the moment a HTC Desire
Well, it's looking like either Nexus S, or Desire for me =P
It's not a secret that the Optimus One is getting long in the tooth and several hacks and workarounds are undertaken just to make it as usable as most new phones in the market. That said, what is your planned upgrade path?
If I get enough money, I like the HTC Evo 3D.
Though I think of switching to desire z or defy or galaxy s or dell steak(bigger screen fascinates me) , I have second thoughts again and again.
I feel we already have gingerbread, good 3d, good internal memory via 1gb ext partitions, 512 mb ram. Sound is great now with gb too.
So what will we get after upgrading. I believe a bigger screen, flash support, dlna, 720p video recording. But then I think how frequently will I use them. After thinking this I just become satisfied with my present o1.

QWERTY droids are starting to look good to me. I'm getting pretty tired of touchscreen typing so if I will stick with Android (for now I'm not really sure I want Android anymore) it will be either a QWERTY one or a 4-4.3" one for precise typing (thin chances because I'm tired of poor battery life).
All i can say is it will not be any LG, just coz they made us w8 for Android 2.3.

Please, consider that this is a low end phone and that there are 5+ different versions of this phone. Many high end phones don't even have 2.3 officially announced. We have an estimated time with videos of the official gingerbread. No reason to hate LG. I would much rather have a finished bug free update then bug full one. It's annoying that people are putting LG/this phone down because of the 2.3 update. This phone is zippy for what it has and LG has done a great job.
This phone pretty much satisfies my needs, I'll probably buy another in a year or so, so whatever looks good then I'll buy it
I am very pleased with my Optimus. I like the Nexus S but can't justify the cost. If I were to break my Optimus T I'd buy another one now that it's $50 cheaper than when I bought mine back in November ;(.

Colleague has an Galaxy S2 and the screen is captivating. Wow. With a mod or two that phone will pwn.
I'm not planning buying a new phone anytime soon. I'll propably keep my O1 at least until xmass.
It was my first android (ex symbian fanboy) and I didn't want to spend much money in case i didn't like it (but I fell in love with it) but my next android will definetly be a high-end phone.
Dual core, wvga, hdmi capabilities etc. If I was to buy a new phone now I'd choose optimus x2. A friend of mine got it few days ago and I like it very much

The O1 really is a potent Android gateway drug. Knowing the power of this OS, I wouldn't settle on less than high-end for my next Android phone.
I like my O1 Thankfully it was a right choice, It does everything i want too, And now that its overclocked its performing without any lags, Add to that Gingerbread.... its Got Juice for another year or so...
My next Phone will not be android, I'll keep my O1 as my secondary phone and Get that Awsome Nokia N9 with meego they are going to release this year

Oh!! I see you are The GOD who can predict the future,
The phones not even released yet, and we don't know how its going todo... If it were to be a huge success, Its no doubt that nokia will reconsider bringing Meego into main stream, plus there are millions out there who are rooting for the phone due to its limitless capabilities... thanks to the people over here at XDA..
"Meego = Fail!!!"
Sorry
You will have to take that word back when you'll see android applications working efficiently on a Meego... prepare to be amazed
Hi, i was wondering if there is any option or any ROM or any guide to make this device Android? thanks in advance
Yes, it is called HTC Sensation XL.

Why does everyone answer this question in this forum the same? Maybe people don't want to buy an HTC Sensation XL, since they have an amazing and great(better) looking phone already.
I also would love to see Android on my Titan, since I'm not that content with wp 7.5.

Because WP comes with so much security around the bootloaders and NAND that we are not even able to interop unlock the phones like Titan, so dreaming about Android is not even on the table yet.
Thus anyone not content with wp 7.5, can either wait 5-6 months for WP8 or sale their Titan right now, while you can sell it at good price and grab a HTC Sensation XL. It's exactly as it says in my signature too.
By the time we might get around modding the Titan in a few months time, WP8 will come with even further securities and features. I for one, would rather enjoy the WP8 features than not-upgrade because there might be a possibility of running Android.
HTC Sensation XL is EXACTLY the same phone, different software. I own a Sensation XL, it is sitting in a drawer since after week 2 of purchase. Hence I know its ditto same, only running Gingerbread (ICS was promised to me by the sales guy in November. He said I should have it around Christmas). There aren't any custom ICS (stable and safe) ROMs for that phone either and it's been 6 months.

XDA Marketplace - Trade in your device and swap or Sell one. If you got your HTC Titan free from your operator, you will obviously be better off trading it for Sensation XL.

No, it is not.
The site you're linking to is talking about the original HTC Titan which was the code name for a CDMA Windows Mobile 6.x device on Sprint and Verizon is the US.
Don't confuse code names with retail product names.
It is possible. You just need get all the drivers and know how to pack an Android ROM based on an old hardware like Nexus One. Sensation XL ROM won't help because the internal chipsets are totally different (they are newer dual-core variant). Titan contains similar hardware capability like Nexus One. So a modern Android OS like Gingerbread or ICS will run like crap on it (I knew this because my Galaxy S2 running 1.2G Dual core with 1GB RAM can't even run as smooth as the Titan runing WP7). Hence no one in their right mind will waste their time to create a Titan Android ROM unless you want to do it yourself.
It is possible but not probable. If you want Android experience, buy an Android phone.

Nope, not possible at this time. If you want to write a new bootloader, maybe you'll be able to pull it off.
I seriously hope that this is never ever not ever can never be never possible.
Guess I'm just getting tired of the Android crowd continually asking this about every single device in existence. OK! Android can be installed on a variety of devices! We get it already!

GPS has nothing to do with mobile OS. It's an app. Try a different GPS app on your WP7.
On the other hand, my super dupper Dual-core Samsung Galaxy S2 with 1 GB RAM can never match any of my WP7 phones with signal core and 512MB RAM for the smoothness of UI.
Google's free services (including Nav) are the only good things about Android. The rest of OS is just junk.

Thanks for the laugh guys! I've been around since well Windows Mobile 6.0. I had/have a Sensation and a Skyrocket (Galaxy SII). I've been over to the dark side for god 2 years now! Just got a free Titan II and decided I would leave my sim card in it for a couple months since it's got the LTE radio. So far I'm liking it. Really liking it.
Now to just break MS security unlock the boot loader and Nand write some custom loader oh wait I KNOW I'll port over clockwork mod. Then I will round up all the drivers modify them if needed and compile a android build. Might as well start with ICS since it's the newest. So in a year or two I should be done and have android running on this mofo at least half as well as it ran on my HD2 )~
