Database Info

hey guys, new here and wanted to ask your opinions

ok so here's the thing, i have an upgrade on sprint and am deciding between the touch pro 2, the hero and the samsung moment. the only reason i really like the hero is because of sense. but if if someone here knows how to get sense on the moment i would snap it up immediately.
however the touch pro 2 looks amazing with the big screen and that awesome keyboard. not to mention i looked around on the forums last couple of days and have seen all the crazy stuff for windows mobile with cooked roms and stuff. not to mention u guys have android on WM so yeah.
i'm coming from a pre, and was part of the first homebrewers so i doubt i'll have to much trouble with modding or rooting the WM or android phones. i dealt with alot of coding with the pre and it was a bit of a pain but enlightening.
so i'm just wondering what u TP2 and Hero users have to say. and if anybody can answer about getting sense ui on the moment that would be great.
tl;dr what should i get Hero, TP2 or Moment.

My advice...
Drop the Moment...
Go with a TP2. They are working on porting Android for this and will not be long before you can see a port with Sense on the TP2 (if there isn't one already).
Hope this helps.

so any other responses? or opinions.

Go for the TP2 which as mentioned has many cool stuff & more in development. Very reliable with a nice screen!
But if U want the cool Android stuff now, then of course it's the Hero...

so about the TP2 does it run sense like the hd2 or touchflo? and where do i go to get all the cool stuff for it, anywhere specific.

I second that.
Dell streak is tooooooooo big, N900 is tooo old (and a dying os), Leo is the best of your options. But, maybe you are considering other phones like the desire or Nexus One maybe????

Get the Samsung Vibrant(unless u care about front facing camera and flash get EVO). Galaxy S series is the smoothest Android phone in the market.

Nah, the i9000 is Samsung, remember the others???? I just don't think I'm ready to trust samsung with phones yet, plus the design looks tacky to me. I also hear bad things about the software and limits to custom ROMS....

i am not really intrested in samsung phones tbh (I don't like there visual appearance)
I also don't like the desires look.
And the nexus one is to expensive as i can get these devices for quite a bit cheaper.

less talk, more HD2. $250 on CL right now. If the explosion in Android development recently hasn't proven to you, people who matter love this phone. I haven't seen any phone get this much Android love so fast. Hell some native android phones don't get this much android love. The people we have working on the HD2 are amazing. They went from won't even boot to semi stable in like a week. There doing stuff people predicted 6 months to complete overnight. I'm very excited for the HD2 at the moment and see it living on for many years since all the phones from here out will be new gen locked down iphoney OS's. So HD2 may really be the last of the mohicans.

ICS My Thoughts...

Does anyone else out there think ICS looks like complete ****? I watched the leaked nexus video on YouTube that was released a few days ago and the first thing that came to mind was omfg look how ****ty that looks. I know I know *puts on flame suit* . I just can't get over the fact that ICS is the best thing that they could come up with I mean we are talking about Google here, were some of the brightest minds in America go to work. I just don't know, what are your guys thoughts? I feel they could create something a little bit more appealing with better Widgets idk let me know what you guys think...

It looked amazing today when they announced it.

I think it's beautiful.
Today's Live Wallpaper sucked dicks though.
The only thing I disliked were the on-screen buttons, but today's presentation made me feel less icky about it.

I love the look of ICS
I think its awesome and I like the new font theyve created as well
looks much better than all the earlier versions of android

It looks nice but not quite what I was hoping for.

They killed the menu button and use the wp7 like … icon. Wonder how the interface will be unit galaxy nexus runs gingerbread apps.

Like on Honeycomb tablets I think a button will appear along the 3 existing ones.

I also was expecting more. I'm a bit dissapointed
.
By the way, shouldn't be this topic on Android general forum?

I absolutely love how ICS looks. I adore the understated look and smooth transitions. The sold solid colors and Metro inspired design-language looks just fine to me. It is disappointing that the design of Ice Cream Sandwich is receiving so much negativity.
At least Gizmodo agrees that is is beautiful, and maybe that will help calm others a bit.

I think I kind of see a bit of disappoint. I think there was a bit too much speculation over it. There's always CyanogenMod

[Q] Still looking for a sense 4.0 rom?

I posted this question a few weeks ago, but I didnt really get any definative answers. Im currently running Virtuous AOSP Rom, wich already doesnt get great battery life, so Im sure a Sense 4.0 Rom will only be worse. But, Im really wanting to give Sense 4.0 a go, or maybe just something different, as I get a little bored easily.
Sooooo, what do you guys reccomend? I need wifi hotspot, as I do run my tablet & laptop off of it frequently. Just as most, battery life & overall smoothness is my ultimate goal. Sense 4.0 is actually the first manufacturer overlay that Ive really been enticed by. It looks like HTC has actually come up with something attractive and intuitive.
Im also going gto be purchasing an HTC One device and Im curious to see how Sense 4.0 performs. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to provide me with their first hand experience and or input! You guys are Great!

[Q] Android AOSP or something like that?

Hello everyone. I'm huge fan of HTC, and i think probably the HTC One E8 will be my next phone.
I like Sense... but when i see the next Android version "L" for the first time i fall in love literally.
My question is... There's someone could do a Android Stock ROM for this amazing phone? I think the ports of the M8 on the E8 will not be really difficult.
Thanks in advance, cheers mates!

+1 here. A huge HTC fan but contradicts with using Samsung. I'm hoping to go back to my roots and have too earmarked the E8, just seems like the perfect phone man.
Like you, I'm also a bit worried of the lack of development happening on this phone. It's just a shame really , everything has it on my checklist and what's reluctant for me to go for is absent - development.
I'm still really really waiting for a dev to pick this up and work on it, plus yeah, guess some tweaking of the M8 ROMs could do the trick.
