Do any of the available kernals for the Infuse support Bluetooth 3.0? Is there anyway to tell which version of BT I currently have?
This should be in Q&A. I'm almost positive that the Infuse is v2.1
sent from outer space.
pretty sure stock rom with touchwiz is 3.0 but it also lacks some older protocalls that they use for game controllers, i've also been unable to connect to old smartphones (windows mobile and symbian) for contact exchange with touchwiz roms.... do you need something fast? because the bt 2.1 on cyanogen mod and other opensource roms has much more compatibility. what do you intend to do thatyou need bt 3.0?

I have a controller that needs BT 3.0 or higher. But I'm thinking it's probably best to upgrade the phone after the holidays.

Hi,
I just wondered if anybody could confirm whether the impending WM6 release for the T-Mobile Dash will be of any use to the ROM Cookers here? I'm still using Helmi's v1.1, and think it's great, but could do with a bit more stability, and was hoping a "release" ROM might provide that.
The reason I ask is that it appears that the Dash's ROM has leaked already, but I haven't seen a Universal ROM that seems to be based around the new released core, as I would have expected, or have I missed something?
Cheers,
Steve.
Dash is A SP phone;
Uni is A PPC phone;
can't build uni rom based on dash core.
allway: as U said, and second thing(even if dash will be ppc) is more than possible that has different HW - thats the reason why U cannot use ie hermes roms for uni.
but u can use some parts of roms from different device usually bundled sw, mms, voice dials....

Fair enough. I thought the two platforms were being brought together, and realised that the difference in hardware may already be handled by the drivers etc that we already have.
Presumably there will be apps etc that may be of use, as phsnake said.

hi guys,
I'd like to know if it possible because I've been using my Xperia x1 for about a year and i think it's time for a change but when I checked all the available phones I got confused a little.
it seems like Windows phone 7 looks great but in a review i saw somewhere it says that it lacks some important features such as:
No Bluetooth file transfers
No USB mass storage mode
No multitasking
No copy/paste
No Flash or Silverlight support in the web browser
No DivX/XviD video support
No internet tethering support
Swapping memory card requires hard reset; cards not readable by computer
and Android has great features but IMO I think WinMo gives more freedom in the terms of using or hacking
and as a WinMo 6.5 user I find it a great OS with all the features needed and if there some feature I want that is not already offered it's available here on XDA-Dev either as a .cab or cooked in a ROM
So the Main Question: if I buy a Sonyericsson (X10 maybe) or a HTC with a 1 GHz Processor will I be able to install any OS of them as a ROM???
Thanx in advance.
The only device capable of running WP7 is the hTC Leo and it has actually working Android and some working on Ubuntu and Maemo as well.
not any other device will be capable to do so
Thanx for reply
So the HD2/Leo is able to handle all 3 OSs
but i have more questions please
how is the HD2 up to date regarding the specs? like the RAM, ROM, and processor
can there be 2 OSs in the same time and to be able to switch between them?
and does android 2.2 froyo work 100% i mean with everything working??
thanx again

I'm intreagued, what about the duplo phone looks great to you?
The basic HD2 specs are up to date on paper (RAM, ROM, processor) and even beat some newer phones but dig deep and you'll see the latest version of the chips are better. Android 2.2 is running perfectly but WP7 is still work in progress.
It's more than a year old but still the best phone EVER.

Well, it's clear now that the HD2 is one of the best phones out there as it's capable of handling nearly the 3 OSs, Thanx for ur help
Any chance for Desire to use WP7 too?
I would be great if it is possible.
I wanna try WP7 too.
Is anyone tried mini bluetooth keyboard from ebay its so confusing that it would work or wouldn't. I asked some sellers some say it will work some will not work, one one seller posting says it would not work with Android 2.2 Any input on this issue I appreciated.

I don't think it will work with our phones. From what I understand, we have BT 2.1 but HID enabled BT is 3.0 at least.

No, the problem is just that Android doesn't have proper drivers for HID. I've been using bluetooth keyboards forever on my old Windows Mobile devices, so I know it's not a problem with bluetooth version. More importantly, no bluetooth keyboard would even benefit from the BT 3.0 spec - 2.1 is just fine. This is true (as far as I know) for all Android devices, except maybe for the Galaxy Tab, where Samsung may have taken time to make bluetooth HID drivers. Not 100% sure on this, but last I saw, Android doesn't natively support bluetooth HID.
It's a shame too - these large screened, high-res devices (especially the EVO with it's built in kickstand) would make great note taking, IM/email devices when paired with a portable keyboard. Would be a great notebook/netbook replacement and/or supplement.
So buying me one of those mini bluetooth keyboard is not gonna do any good for me, some vendors saying specifically android on their title, and one vendor responded that yes epic and evo will work, or its just a scam.

There's a company that sells a thirdparty app to use Bluetooth SPP profile keyboards on most Android phones, but most new Bluetooth keyboards only do HID. HID should work on the Epic when CM6 is ready, but it's unlikely to ever work on an Epic w/stock ROM.

[Q] Sense 3.0 & Android 2.3 for LG Optimus 3D? possible?
I'v seen that Sense 3.0 and Android 2.3 seems to be working on LG Optimus 2X...
...I know it's theme, but is there a ROM out what supports all features of Sense 3.0 including lock screen / Gingerbread ?
do you see any customroms in this forum for optimus 3d? no? so there is no sense for o3d at the moment in the whole world
you'll have to w8 till there are the first custom roms and then maybe someone of the developers is bored enough to port sense for the o3d
what about 'importing' from older models into newer models stuff, like import sense 3.0 ROM from Optimus 2X? ...or that's no possible to import such stuff?

well... to port sense you'll have to much more than only to copy some files...
htc sense changes deep layers of android so it's not like one of the launchers from marked, it's much more.
it's really hard to extract sense from a htc-rom and to integrate it to another rom. (different hardware -> different drivers)
so it will take a long time till there is sense rom for o3d...
I don't believe there is a Sense 3.0 ROM for any phone that isn't a HTC phone, nevermind this one which has very limited support so far.
It's possible but it's a LOT of work.

well in fact there are some...
for the galaxy s for example. (still buggy)
the main problem is, that it isn't worth to port port it
sense is nice but there are "better" things worth to port them
I'd love a 100% working Sensation ROM, but I'm not expecting it.
Well, you can get:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/sense-3-0-lockscreen-for-any-phone/
I've installed it and it works (you only have to install some chinese apps to get the full version)...
It's not fully Sense, but it's a lockscreen

Does it support widgets ? at least for messaging?

it's abit laggy, or is that for me only? (when opening lock screen)
There was this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1206326
But this:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscompatibilitychecker
Says it's incompatible with the Infuse 4G.
This is just the checker, and I would assume that you could at least download the checker to see if it's compatible... or is the fact you CAN'T download it the check itself? Strange~
Also, this is kind of a +1 for adding PS3 Controller compatibility, or if anyone knows of an alternative for the Infuse 4G.
I hope it works,it would be cool
Not compatible with ANY GalaxyS (or similar) phone. Also not compatible with any HTC Sense phone.
Both Samsung and HTC break the Bluetooth stack in the official firmwares. In fact the general rule (with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 being the only exception) is: If it runs Sense or TouchWiz, it won't work.
Cyanogenmod ports have a fully functional Bluetooth stack (when they have one that works at all - Bluetooth is completely missing from LinuxBozo's CM7 port so far)
I have not yet seen an example of someone "un-breaking" the Bluetooth stack in a stock-based firmware - only in full-blown AOSP/Cyanogenmod ports.

Wish it was as simple as taking a folder called "Bluetooth" from one phone and just slapping it into the Infuse. Oh well, patience then.
