Thank bro...

Nice..
I think that this could also be done now manually eg. by installing another chrooted OS (Debian) and configuring Xorg to work correctly with the external screen. Yes, it is complicated and unseen problems will probably arise.

IMO that looks like a train wreck. A couple of beers later, snap! You now have two phones.

Yea, looks totally ridicolous.. And what about the cpu? Will it handle dual-screens?

hello friends,
I am newbie here. I hope all your co-operation and help. I am very happy to be here with u all.
Waiting for your positive response.
Have a great day !

Yeah, I don't think it will go anywhere either. I'm sure someone will do something cool to it though. I remember being on Engadget during the press conference waiting for that dumb David Blaine stunt to get over with.

Yea I heard about the David Blaine thing; kinda stupid imo.
However, I don't really like the design of the phone, not really pleasing to look at; that and tthe fact that the form factor itself might actually take away from the speed you can do most things.
Captivate 2.2.1 Paragon

Who brought the DS to Sprint?

as a Sprint user this phone was a huge let down.

Ugliest phone ive seen in a while.

Lol have sense but i think that is a failer = [

Technically, we already have a very early Prototype DS emulator on the market.
Just search up Tiger Lab Nintendo DS on Google
{I would provide the URL link but as the website says I'm still a n00b and unable to post weblinks}
I personally haven't tried out the emulator, but it definately shows promise.

nice, finally effective multi tasking phone

That dual screen phone is pretty darn ugly. I don't think I'd carry a dual screen phone... definitely not one with those specs. It's too thick and too big without the good specs it would need.

Dark side

Hi guys new here looks a great site, i have htc hd2 getting bored with all the problems im having with it, have had my phone a month now thinking maybe should have got a iphone,
I have problem when texting it says tap to compose text takes forever to get keyboard up
Told everyone my phone is a iphone killer they all want to see whats so good erm, dont know what i can show apart from the lovely animated weather wallpapers

Better yet, the HTC Desire.
And I wouldn't call Android the "dark side". Android's future looks pretty bright
(and no matter what anyone tries to make you believe, the iPhone is a joke, don't waste your money on that - if you want something more "iphoneish" than the HD2, but much much better than an actual iPhone, get the Desire/Nexus One)
Your keyboard problem could be ROM related. What ROM version are you running? Make sure you have at least the official 1.66 ROM.

This just in, XDA brought down by wooters!

Anyone else seeing the increase in frequency of the over capacity message?
No, I'm not putting down wooters. I am a wooter. Just think it's funny.

Just wait until the other 6000 of us get ours. Mine's been vacationing in Irving, TX for 2 days now. I'm wondering if I can find a janitor or someone else there to charge it up for me while it sits.
Yeah, got the over capacity msg several times today. Then got the down for maintenence msg.
First Google and now this...and I won't even get my w00tab till sometime tomorrow
I just got mine, and it kind of looks like android 2.2 stock already..
its not so bad the way it came... its not so slow..
just got an OTA update alert for 1.1-3588
should I update or does it hamper my ability to hack the device ???
I currently have 1.1-3389
Nothing,
Go.

I flash vegan 5.11 about 30 seconds after I got mine lol

Everything I've read so far indicates that you should allow it to update first. You should do some more reading though just to be sure of what you're doing. I'm going to leave mine stock for a while until I'm comfortable with it.
LOL, we are the Woot Tab Clan!
Gettin' crazy up in this here e-crib! DoSing yer servers with our n00bitude!
In other news, does anyone know how to persistently keep the status bar and icons turned off system wide? I have it off in Launcher Pro, but other programs like the browsers don't respect it.
Woot, Woot!
This is a good thing. The G tablet went from a aftethought to maybe the most popular non ipad tablet in a matter of a week.
On a side note. my woot G tablet came with stock 2.2. Angry Birds and a few other apps . You could access the dashboard but it always started on stock 2.2 then I did the update and it went to the dashboard and angry birds ( and some of the other Apps ) was gone. Strange. Had to go to viewsonics website to put Angry Birds back on. ALmost like these were refurbs that were never updated. Mines working fine and I love it , just something I noticed.

I would recommend the 3588 OTA stock update first - it's a good solid baseline to have before modding.
I've seen the w00t servers brought down a number of times.

Re. Your last ques, I haven't seen any setting like that globally, but Xscope and Dolphin mini can do that (browsers).

RE: over capacity
XDA recently migrated to new servers powerful enough to make Bill Gates drool. Unfortunately, with all the new power comes immense tweaking to the SQL databases, and until our server admin finds the sweet spot, these may happen on occasion.
Rest assured that every error generates a notification, and he acts as quick as possible.

It will be only for a short time, I think. Maybe a week or two, then everybody finished moding their tab and worked out all the kinks and then will hardly bother to come back.
Just my thoughts
Notice how the site's all snappy now?
It's because the Wooters are off trying to get a Bag of Crap (I've given up hope...)
Oh why hello gtabbers I got mine today! Well its for my wife for her beat but I carefully cracked it open I can't wait 20 days
Via TT
I think all the woot ones are older stock rather than being refurbs.
Woot is good about that sort of thing and will tell you up front if it is a refurbed device.

Please educate me!!! Who are wooters? Why have they brought xda-developers site to this unprecedented 'over-capacity?'
Definitely more laggy
The site's definitely more laggy over the last day or so....
To me, the sad part is that because ViewSonic has effectively taken a pass on gTab support, virtually the entire customer support load has landed on the XDA site and the generosity of its devs and user community.
If there were such a thing as corporate shame, ViewSonic should be feeling it.

My feedback about this phone

Hey guys, until yersterday i was a galaxy s owner, but i recived a desire s at the HTC conference at Milan (the presentation of HTC Sensation...i'm an italian blogger fo AndroidBlog.it).
I saw this phone also in Barcellona at MWC 2011, but i I was really surprised about it.
I found it very smooth, fast, responsive....something amazing...
with my SGS updated to 2.2.1 and with all the lagfixes activated in ext4 i can't reach a feeling of usability as on this phone!
really suprised!
It's a very good phone!
glad you think so
now i really want this phone
cant wait
Funny, my - admittedly brand new - SGS lagged less than the DS does. Also the DS has severe wifi issues, can't cope with MVNOs properly, is locked down like anything and forces a lot of crap (Locations, I'm looking at you!) down your throat. So, no, all's not right about the Desire S, and yes, it's still a nice phone.
I mean, I totally get that you're happy with your new (free) phone and kudos for disclosing how you got it, but still - couldn't you have at least tried to find something negative about it in the name of balance and/or journalistic integrity?
Sorry for the rant.

I'm not faulting you for raising your concerns with him, but come on, give him a break! He was merely writing to convey his appreciation of his new device, not publishing a review. There are plenty of in-depth reviews out there for that.

Someone should make a thread for users to post their times to vs.
The main reason I bought the Xperia Play was for this game as it chugged too much on my Desire. A little disappointed to find out that DD:FW doesn't support the hardware controls, so be prepared to pay $10 for DD:SW.
Since installing DD:SW I'm loving the hardware controls, so much easier to play (and no falling off). Not played online yet, so can't comment on the number of players there.
I must say I was a little concerned that I was buying a non-dual core device but every game has run perfectly so far. Not run any benchmarks yet but DD runs sweet on this device.

this is the thing i have a quad core sitting in my pc does it utilize it? nope!
I came from a Samsung galaxy S supposed to be better is it? nope!
great having a dual core phone, but why? worse battery and performance you cant really use. IMHO the play works just fine all games run sweet and that's why i have it, when the systems go down at work (weekly) i pick up my play and waste a few minutes genius
Just a quick question. Does anyone notice that the camera angles in first wave and second wave are different? Like in first wave it's a little more over the shoulder and second wave is more top down. I find it hard to play second wave cuz I can't see the enemies far away. Thanks in advance.

Haha forgot to mention that I did try pressing sel a few times but it just makes it more "top-down" perspective. What I meant was that the camera angles are actually different between first and second wave and I can't get second wave to have the same perspective as first wave, no matter what options I change.
2nd wave is top down only.

It's a great game but it does get to be laggy at times, especially when a lot is happening, like when a lot of enemies appear or if you have a lot of towers in one area and they all start shooting at once.
I agree about the camera angles, it is a bit annoying not being able to see that far away, especially on bigger maps.
Except for that, love the game
Great to see ppl actually play online. I got bored playing on my own, specially on some of the levels where it rains the TNT mobs!
Anyway was thinking about trying to set up a weekly game? thinking every Sunday at 6pm GMT - this should allow most people from different time zones to play, most of Europe and the US should be able to get on.
Anyone up for that?
I went to play online and magically I went up to level 20 from 5 XD

[Q] Just purchased Dark Knight

So I purchased one thing from the goodie good deals they had on the $.25 cent deal.
My question is, is this notorious game "The Dark Knight Rises" will be able to run on our device?
If not I didn't really waste money, it was 25 cents so what the heck, if I get a better device then it will run it.
Quick note: Ok I saw someone comment from a Galaxy Nexus device saying it runs smooth. So I'm hoping it runs smooth for our device also since both devices almost run the same specs according to GSMArena
You can't believe how similar the device hardware are, silly Samsung not giving us ICS!

OK, let me get this straight.
You made a thread because you bought an app and you want us to buy it and check it out for you so we tell you if it runs in our device that is the same as yours... Can't you just open it and satisfy your curiosity? I mean, it's easier, faster, you already bought it so I assume it installed and no one installs and app if not going to run it at least once, that's just dumb. Then you realized how useless making this thread was and put some links to old news in order to change the topic into something that was on discussion months ago.
I'm correct? Did I missed something? Maybe you just wanted to show off that you bought a .25$ app. I know, I must be wrong. I must have read something and misinterpreted it.

Ok... You're thrown off for some reason, you might be hyped or just angry and you decided to let it out on me. Nice to know that you wrote an article to express your hatred towards this thread.
Let me explain to you in a matter you can understand. I am not telling people to buy the game, I am asking for people who already had the game if it runs fine for our phone. You also do not realize how huge this "app" is. It totals to about around 1.80 GB according to Google Play. Please do not attempt to flame unless you understand the matter in hand. If this thread is completely useless then thank you for your feedback, I do not care, maybe the moderators do.
I am not giving you a angry/troll reply, I am just stating the fact that you are incorrect in some points of your reply and there is no reason for you to get angry at me.

Thank you! I also have to agree a little bit about being choppy on GB since temple run, runs so choppy on GB, weirdly it runs smoother on ICS!
@th3controll3r
I'm not angry. In fact, I was laughing. You made my night with this thread. What I tried to say in a not-so-funny-for-you way is that you already bought it, what are you going to do? Wait until you get a new device with better hardware/specs to try it? Just run it. The worst that could happen is a soft reboot, a FC or a crash and you have to pull battery, put it again and turn phone on. No big deal. In fact, I was going to get the game too but I don't have a CC to buy it. Enjoy the game.
BTW, I tried Bad Piggies... it's great. It does run in case someone else wonders. LOL
*Also, games run better for me one ICS than on GB. I noticed with Major Mayhem and Temple Run... even Angry Birds!

They need to add a mood emotion indicator with these forum softwares nowadays. I thought your reply was a angry reply. I'm sorry I misinterpreted XD
Maybe next time give more information in your initial post. I read it and thought OK you bought the game but must be afraid of installing it. I would be willing to bet it would also be better suited to post in the theme and apps sub next time. I could be wrong but I do believe that is where apps and theme related posts belong.

Not the same spec, one clocked at 200mhz the other 384mhz and can be oc'ed to 512mhz. Then there is the cpu and ram and faster flash memory. The graphic will look better on the Nexus too. But I wonder why there isn't a way to overclock the GPU for the Galaxy S, or is there?
I do notice smoother gameplay with Jelly Bean on the Nexus compared to ICS.
