I'd prefer an ics leak, but that's not happening. But maybe an ics build will pop up, who knows. I used to prefer touchwiz to aosp for the contacts app, toggles and lockscreen/ notification area music controls as well as mkv support and h264 Codec support But now there is soon much in,the market and so much ui wise offered in miui and cyanogen that if it weren't for hdmi I wouldn't think about running a Samsung ROM anymore.
Edit, now that,I think about it. Gingerbread is way more Christmasy than icecream. So,yeah, let's hope for more stuff to play with.

That'd be nice. I have four days off. Hmmm...

Nope. Sad isn't it?
Although the Rogers GB Infuse was not as feature-rich as the AT&T Infuse on Froyo.
The funny thing is that the latest leaks are pretty rock-solid. I think Entropy (I think it was him) hit it dead on when he said a major delay was caused by CIQ integration and subsequent removal.

Not as feature rich? In what sense. I know us Canadian's didn't get the HDMI adapter but that's about all I know about it.

I didn't think your version supported HDMI-out at all. I could be wrong on that though as I don't own one. Also, the camera recording video at 15FPS was less than the AT&T Infuse which records at 30FPS.

No hdmi, low video frame rate, lag in the unlock screen, lower data speeds due to tcp buffer settings, battery drains randomly, no noise reduction for calls,....
Did I miss anything?

I believe AT&T Froyo build was released pretty reved up. Its pretty solid, really all it needs is root. I can live with it, but being the picky ***** I am I need the latest thing being gingerbread ...

2.1 & youtube app?

does youtube with hd work on the 2.1 builds? if so could we take the app and install it on a 1.5 rom with good results? i know youtube is broke atm until the 2.1 update that's why im asking. i just saw a complaint thread about youtube on android central.
it does work with 2.1 however my experience with all the 2.1 roms floatin around is the hd side of it only works with wifi. as far as usin it on 1.5 no go

so why wouldn't it work on 1.5? different kernel and such? i hate the fact a google app is broke you know!
can anybody upload the 2.1 youtube app and ill try it out? if it doesn't work it will be no different for me as right now it's a no go.
never mind i tried the 2.1 app and it doesn't work, i get a force close...such a shame.
it does work in 2.1.. with HD too...
sometimes (less than 10%) I cant play a vid.. but just select it again.. and it is fine...
I watched a vid in hd on 3g no problem... took a bit longer to load obviously but still worked like a charm... it's nice to have youtube back after losing it in 1.5
when u mean hd, do u mean high quality?

I sure hope so. The Hero doesn't have enough pixels to display HD. Any attempt at HD is just pure wasted bandwidth. The Hero barely has enough pixels to even display Youtube's 480p "High Quality".
FYI
The Youtube app does work great on DamageControl v1. Although by default it gets the low quality video. You have to go to the Menu and select Play High quality.
Obviosly its going to take longer to load the HQ video. And it does work over 3G.

the youtube app on 1.5 needs to be fixed...why can't a dev fix it on a custom rom? whats the issue anyways? seems stupid to have to wait until 2.1 for a fix.
@fixxer
well the devs can't really do much if they dont have the source code for the youtube app...
if memory serves me right, the youtube app isnt working because of a timeout issue, which is why it works everynow and then...you cant really change those type of settings easily without access to the source. its a problem with how the app was programmed.
also keep in mind the devs are hard @ work on more important things such as getting teh hardware to work 100%, and is something thats within relative easy grasp as opposed to modifying an application without source.
I totally agree. Youtube on 1.5 has been messed up since the November MR, which IMO is totally unacceptable. Haven said that, I hope you guys still using 1.5 don't have to wait much longer but I have to say it works great on 2.1
HQ is only available as default PRE November MR release (yea, before the MR you could set youtube to default to HQ always), and now on wifi.
You can tell a vid to go to HQ after you select the vid. Much slower, but works fine and is clear.

[KERNEL] Official Froyo w/ OC + both camera's + fps 'fix'

WIP! help would be great.. netarchy..?
I take no credit for this, I just zipped and signed the kernel from ava's previous sense+froyo rom.
anyways... I don't have much else to say. I did this just to see if it would work and it did so I thought I should share
Rear camera is stuck at 3mp, wifi and 4g are down. I am not great with kernels so I will not be able to fix them, this is where I need help.
EDIT: ok so my approach failed. wifi and 4g are still down. I will see what I can do on this but feel free to fix it yourself since I am not the most skilled person with this stuff
Update: ok, so I added nets drivers but it didn't magically make wifi work. he did work on the source and I have never really tweaked kernel sources before. atm wifi and 4g are down which sucks sooo I suggest going to netarchy's kernel. I might take on all this kernel stuff at some point in the near future but I have school work and work that I have to do and I feel like right now I should get that stuff done before diving into a whole new project. I'll leave this up but I see no point in using my hacked together kernel when you have netarchy's now I know all the other devs have the time for this but I procrastinated on summer reading for high school (yeah, I am 16) and I just got immersed in 3 new languages for work. my brain is pretty fried. anyways, enough with this long ramble, and happy evo'ing
Gonna try it now! Thanks!
Gonna try too, crossing fingers.

fps fix for epson and/or novatec?
Thanks! Once i get confirmation that this works looks like i will finally make the move over to 2.2. Been waiting for a kernel to come out before i did.
I say upgrade to 2.2 because it moves pretty damn fast! I say faster than any other kernel and rom for 1.47 base.
Recording in 720p is super smooth and video performance is very snappy. Don't worry about the "numbers" as it performs very well.
Of course, once the RUU is available, performance will improve.

CM6 already has this stuff built in. You can OC, FPS is in the 50 fps range, and cameras work fine. The only things not working are HDMI, and 4g.

There And Back Again (my trip to the Nexus S from Inspire 4G)

Shame on me.
2 weeks ago I've seen on the Google's homepage "Nexus S a pure Google experience" I clicked and long story short I decided to buy (for $0 of course, the 'only for today' strategy got me..) a Nexus S... at first I was very very very Happy... Frontal camera, video calls with skype, google videos, Gingerbread, NETFLIX (!!!)...
I wasn't really thrilled about the size of the screen... sensibly smaller than the Inspire although the resolution was the same, and the colors... the nexus' screen's colors are kinda yellowish...
I was so happy about the new features though that I've ALMOST sold my Inspire! Then right before selling it my Nexus fully charged during the night dies in my pocket at 4 in the afternoon... A sign from god... I started noticing the abnormal battery consumption and I open my eyes..
Long story short... I m now selling my Nexus S and keeping my Inspire... Using the Inspire after 2 weeks feels like a million dollars.. but now I really miss google videos and netflix!
Does anybody know how to get them on Inspire?? Apparently neither of them are compatible.... BS i say...
Netflix works fine on the latest Gingerbread update for Inspire. I don't know about google videos.
netflix works fine..

So does video calls with Skype, just no FFC, and the GB update was rolled out a couple weeks ago. I know google videos won't work with rooted devices, but I don't know about the stock Inspire ROM
Hold on... why and how Google video is not allowed on rooted phones (i have stock rooted)??
Also the GB update isn't unstable still?
Tnx so much for the netflix app!

yea - no disagreement here.
And just realized I missed your question about the stability of the GB update - I hadn't heard anything about it being unstable. I'm currently running virtuous unity v 1.33 (GB 2.3.4), which is in Beta, and seems incredibly stable to me. There are other GB ROMs that have been out for a WHILE that are also incredibly stable. If you're already running stock rooted, then you have root and guessing you're s-off, why not flash a custom GB ROM?
Oh no i meant the OFFICIAL one... I tried various roms and the only one I feel confortable with on the Inspire is the stock with sense and stock radio... So when I heard about the official GB update I was very happy... instead it's full of major bugs.. shame.
I will wait till they fix the update and somebody cooks the original rom... I'm not really a Sense fan but it performs very well on their devices...

LG and/or NVIDIA from what i gathered. There's alot of stuff that just doesn't work right, or not at all, mainly sound and camera. The old ALPHA for G2x versions worked, but lacked sound and lots other internal issues that haven't been resolved yet.

Well if he does, and it works, then i'll start a ROM based from it.
I dont know much *(or anything) about programming and so on. but this entire fragmentation way of doing things, where each company needs to have their own team and we all need to wait for the release of google's latest, is just plain annoying.
At the mercy of a company that already sold you their device? that's not smart. Google should hold all SC (or drivers, or whatever U call these) and release them to all public and all phones at the same time.
But what am I BSing about?!
THANKS
Well I have managed to port 4.0.3 to my g2x but still can't get sound and cam right like the other builds. But some things ive found improvements on. Since my g2x is just a play toy for me I don't care about camera but without sound its useless. Im still messing with it but put it to the back burner for now because I'm highly frustrated with it.

Cyanogen stated that they got sound to work, they just can't get the cam to work.
Also that one guy doing the 20 people beta for his ics rom claims he also got everything to work except the camera.

The only reason I avoided the Sensation was the price difference, hehe. Turns out it had its own set of problems like the G2x. Seems to me ICS is forthcoming with no set timetable by the devs.

Yeah, I'm thinking the only thing that isn't working is camera, right?
I could probably live without that for a little, lol.
I think I've seen some ICS builds out there for other devices that say while the stock camera doesn't work, they've made workarounds that let you use other cameras from the market.

The hardware is not the same. Different baseband chips are being used to obtain the different 3G frequencies and speeds.
G2X - Uses the Qualcomm MDM6200 one chip solution for digital baseband, analog baseband and RF. This is the same baseband chip used in the Moto Atrix.
O2X - Uses the Infineon PMB9801/PMB5703 one chip solution for digital baseband, analog baseband and RF.
The major difference is that the G2X baseband has 14.4Mbps capabilities so T-Mobile can pretend they have 4G, while the O2X baseband has an upper download speed of 7.2Mbps.
I suppose LG had to swap in a new baseband chip for TMO as they demanded faster than 7.2Mbps speeds. They could have used another model of this chip design that got 24Mbps but I guess TMO didn't really want people having all that speed available as as users get higher download speeds, they tend to use more data because they can do things faster.

The have different chipsets and partitions. The O2x has LG's overlay which has the transition speeds on crack to make it look awesomely fast, the G2x is pure vanilla Google. T-Mobile has stated that the G2x has reached EOL, which a lot of people are taking to say it won't receive ICS. I think LG has already announced that the O2x will have ICS. The G2x has the hardware for FM radio, but its not connected up for some reason.
Before you go any farther, lets get something straight. The G2x is LG's P999, but it's called the G2x b/c it was the next successor in T-Mobiles "G" series. There are P999's that are called an O2x, Wind Mobile is one carrier off the top of my head that carries the P999 O2x. Most of the time when you hear O2x, people assume P990; in fact XDA separated the threads for the P999 and the P990. But the software is not transferable b/t the two.

But the devs are working hard my friend. Rest assured the day where ICS will be on the g2x will come, just be patient my friend...
and when they do, there will be a donation to the team
