discussion: The future of smartphones? - General Questions and Answers

Read a really interesting article with regards a project called phoneblox. Please see the following:
http://www.businessinsider.com/phonebloks-2013-9
Could this mean that branded mobile phones become a thing of the past? You considered opinions and thoughts appreciated.

Could this mean the end of smartphone manufacturers as we know them today. Will this forum be discussing the purveyors of smartphone components in the future, as opposed to samsung, htc etc. Your considered discussion appreciated please.

Are you asking a question? Or just sparking discussion on what people think will be happening in the future? I think your post confused me

It labelled as a discussion. Just like to hear others thoughts, and a place to discuss them.

I think the creation of these smart watches that pair with a phone via bluetooth are certainly interesting, and match up with the long-time futuristic TV shows like **** Tracy and Star Trek ...... certainly interesting.

Something like that will never work (at least not in our lifetimes). By the time you want to upgrade one part you'll probably need to upgrade a bunch of others and you're probably better off getting a new phone. This isn't technologically feasible anyway.
Plus, why would you want something so blocky (no pun intended)?

samsung section/ forum would it be so bad

sorry. close this post
You might think it's not so bad; but if you give it to one, you have to do it for all and you'll get people wanting a section for Acer/Eten, iPhone, Blackberry and so on ad-infinitum.
I'd like nothing better for this forum to branch out to ALL WM based phones, but I suspect it will stay focussed on HTC devices.
well ill continue to hang out here because it is the best thing out there. but as it is I guess the samsung stuff will just end up all over the place.
I guess I still look at things via tags
never saw this sorry
This has been discussed so many times
And always getting to same conclution
This is an HTC devices only forum
You are lucky because in off topic there is a thread regarding samsung, this is the best you can expect...

This forum is already branching out to Multiple OS's on HTC Devices.. So if we started adding other WM Brands we would eventually have to envelop all wireless devices to follow suit..
Definitely better keeping the forum just htc devices.. I mean seriously there is over 1.6 million registered users with JUST HTC.. Imagine if we gave a place for the apple FanBoys to hang out.. The whole neighborhood would go to ****..

android iphone
XDA is for development of new wimo/android based phones. I have been in my tilt forum for 2 years and the culture there(and a few others) has become about saving an old peice of hardware with android or heavily tweaked wimo. I thought this mentality could be carried to the iphone for users who want to save a peice of crap by turning it into android. I see now that most users here are able to afford new phones every year or sooner and do not have the "save my device" mentality, which i understand.
what i dont understand is why this mentality is carrying over to hate towards a forum for a specific phone that already has some development on converting it to the android that is so beloved here.
I think pre conceived notions that there are not intelligent people who end up with an iphone and can port it into something useful, mixed with a fear of a thread running away into icrap, make this idea impossible.
either way it is imposable so this discussion should be closed
CLOSE ME

why cant we abuse the hardware? i hate iOS i like the hardware over the tilt
there is already good development on android for the hardware.
like i said before a jailbreak forum would be stupid, but if it is moderated to android development...
legal issues?
What a great idea. It sure would help clean up the forums. I see 3-8 posts a week complaining about the iPhone I wish people would just give it a rest. The iPhone Did this the iPhone did that, guys just shut up you spend more time talking about the iPhone than you do about Android and Wm. If you want to talk about the iphone go to an iphone forum. For the record I am not an apple fan boy by far but I do not hate the iPhone. In fact I'm glad it was made. If it wasn't I wouldn't be holding my nexus one right now tryping all of this.
If you have an iphone forum, then you may as well introduce any other phone on the market...no thanks.
If it goes ahead, may I suggest the forum description contains "Please don't mock the aflicted"

There are plenty of Icrap forums out there and they are very good i just don't feel the need to tarnish the reputation of XDA with an Icrap FORUM, it sends shivers down my spine just thinking about it.
Joking aside the thing is every one has there opinion and they like the device they have and i respect that so asking the question is valid, But do you think if you went to a dedicated Ipone forum and asked for an Wm and android section what would the reply be

No point in being nasty either. I can't understand why Viewsonic would direct their customers to such a place whereas you get a nasty response when asking a valid question. Wouldn't it be better to address it on the front page of this thread?
He was nasty because you are cluttering up the development forum with pointless posts. This forum is for development not questions that have been asked 50 times already. It is getting old. don't post on development unless you have something to contribute to actual development.

Where is that written? Also, old or new, Viewsonic directed us here. Which I will be calling them about. The nasty attitudes are unnecessary. Mostly reflects badly on Viewsonic since they consider this site a valid resource for Viewsonic G Tablet users.
Perhaps, if you address it in a sticky thread then you could possibly alleviate the need for people to keep asking.

I don't know who you are, and neither do I care. Remember nobody here knows really anything about anyone else either.
That being said, some of us have our own high traffic websites and one mention of the unprofessional manner in which the "folks" on this site deals with other users could severely hurt the site traffic along with a few well place telephone calls.
The professional approach "would have been" to do a site PSA.
I can't see any reason why this site would release anything other than altered versions of the official Android OS. What would be in it for them to release the original as is?
Some users would have no use for this site. We bought Viewsonic for their brand name and reputation as a company. Not because of this website. So once some get their hands on an official copy of Honeycomb 3.0, traffic and need will go down.
That wouldn't have to happen if a different approach was taken. I see quite a few "snarky" responses to legitimate comments and concerns by Viewsonic purchasers. If you think we have to just take them you are wrong. On my site I would not dream of responding to my traffic in such a way, not if I expected them to come back.
Remember any website is only as good as there "last" high traffic web hits.

Hi E
Don't take these posts from some of the forum members here personally. XDA isn't affiliated with Viewsonic in any way and these forum members are not Customer service reps.

You are aware this site has nothing to do with Viewsonic, and the only reason they point you here is their own support/developers are 100% useless.
This is a forum used/moderated by the average person on the street, and we really don't have any interest in veiled threats.
You were flamed simply because you didnt even bother to search before asking a question, if you had you would see there are at least 5 other threads with EXACTLY the same question asked.
Search first, search second then ask a question if you want to avoid being flamed.

Windows phone 7 on htc inspire?

Hey, it may seem weird, but I was wondering if there was anyway to put windows phone 7 on the htc inspire. I wanted to get a windows 7 phone, but all the ones from AT&T suck, so I just chose this one. I like it, but it would be nice to see how this would work on it. Thanks!

I agree, I remember reading that post and thinking the same thing. Phones that have the ability to boot multiple operating systems are lauded for how awesome they are, yet until it is discovered how the nay sayers drag on about how stupid that is.
I remember having an iPhone, and when they were trying to get Android to boot on it there were these huge posts about how stupid that was and why would you ever want to boot crappy Android on the holy phone...then as soon as it was booting Android people were falling over themselves to dust off the old 3G and fire up Android, then run around showing everyone how cool it was that they could dual boot.
If someone gets WP7 to boot on the Inspire, I'd love to give it a whirl. Hell, I'd even boot WM6.5 with Sense if it was possible. It just great fun.

That's the point. It was to point out this exact question had been asked fairly recently and the consensus was you can't install WP7 yet. The HD2 and Inspire/Desire HD are fairly significantly different pieces of hardware, saying the HD2 can do something why can't the Inspire is comparing apples to oranges. Not to mention, there are several other threads regarding WP7 on the Desire HD and the answers are all pretty much "no" or "not yet".
EDIT:
I never said it was stupid not to have it on the Inspire, I simply gave you the tools to come to your own conclusion that it's not currently possible.

ohhh so since they are different hardware it won't work!! right
how about when capy got the sensation rom ported to the DHD, and everyone said it wouldn't work on the HD2??? Look at that, it is booted and at the same point as the DHD rom is.
Yup, the hardware is obviously completely different...they are completely different phones. That doesn't mean wp7 will never boot on a dhd. Just takes someone with the know-how to go through with the port. ATM, i don't know of anyone even trying, but i sure wish someone would!!

Arrested and raped. They're probably just mad because it was my first post here and they thought I was a typical annoying new user. But what they don't realize is that theres also another purpose of making the thread, more threads = more demand. Someone with the knowledge might see the demand in doing so and would therefore be more interested to do it. None of the threads were on the front of the page so I don't see why it's such a big deal.

real nice attitude for a senior member...some of you need to check your attitudes at the door. All he did was ask a simple question. scoot over to the rules section and familiarize yourself with the rules. (pay close attention to the word respect) you are lacking it here. There are several people here on XDA with poor attitudes. If you don't have the patience to guide, and help others, then don't respond. Some people have a difficult time navigating the site. I've been seeing more and more of this type of treatment by senior members and it's ridiculous.
.3 Flaming: XDA was founded as a group of people sharing information about certain mobile phones. Sharing does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) it does involve working together to solve problems in an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Losing your temper and flaming another member, or group of members, is not acceptable behavior.

Wonderful that you took the time to write this novel.
Part of the rules is not to post multiple threads asking the same question, like the op did. He was given an answer in his 1st thread that asked the same question. So someone else needs to chill out. I always help other members when I can and others appreciate my help. I am not here to argue with anyone. Just pointed out in my other post that its been discussed and this was unnecessary. Have a nice day!

Sorry if you are that sensitive. Seriously... Move on.
The only way you MIGHT see this happen is if wp7 was released on a device with the exact same hardware as an android device.
Since the important parts of wp7 are closed source it is unlikely anyone with the ability will dedicate themselves to such a task. Much less deal with the legal consequences if they did it.
So no it isn't going to happen.

So I don't have any where else to put it(I think it should go under development but the rules say - if you didn't create it it doesn't belong there) but I found this post really interesting so Enjoy
I noticed it with the nexus s, may this be the reason we'll not get ICS??

not at all - it has nothing to do with it(as far as I understand)
Interesting read, but why would this belong in the development forum?
You did the right thing posting it in the general forum,as this is exactly where it belongs.

This is a common misconception about the development forum.
It's not for things talking about development.
It's for things you have developed.
IOW, the only time one should start a thread on that forum is when one has developed something, and wants to share it with the community.
Anyways, sorry for the derail.
Not trying to sound like an ass or anything.
You did the right thing, and thanks for sharing the link.

sure, np don't worry about it
In spite of Samsung's best efforts to bury the news by reporting it a couple of days before Christmas, Friday's disclosure that the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab won't get upgraded to Android 4.0 drew a lot of justified ire. Now the company seems to be backtracking like a champ, as reported by ajnews in Korea, by claiming that it will review the viability of updating those two devices in response to strong customer demand. While restating the difficulties of fitting its entire software footprint onto the Galaxy S and Tab's limited memory capacity, Samsung has been quoted as saying it'll investigate ways to try and make it work. We've reached out to Samsung for official comment on the matter and will update you as soon as we hear back.
