Please Post all Sprint Hero update rumors here. This not to be confused with the " Official 2.1 Thread. I would also sugest to our ever so patient moderators to move any post of this nature to this thread. Let's clean up the forum and when the update is out out we can get rid of all this with one flush.

So I thought to help the madness on the others threads that we could make one with all of the pros and cons we have seen in the new official update to help people see what they should do as far as force it or root and etc.Flash is not included so you have to find it in dumb ways and it is not in the market.No more vibrate and silent modes being separate.

I figured that since most of us will be getting the Droid X next week, I�ll start up a thread for then, where we can post our pics thoughts and all that, I am not getting mine yet, I am taking summer classes so the X is an incentive, if I get excellent grades� So feel free to post pics, for those that already have them, just make sure it is appropriately sized� Enjoy your Droid X!Please post pictures and give a little opinion on what you felt, so others, like me, can benefit, and for those who have not quite made up thier minds, this might be all they need

I have been trawling around these forums for a long time, and firstly wanted to say thanks to all of those veterans around here passing on their knowledge - its guys like you that make this place work.I wanted to start an official screenshot thread - in part to compare, show off, and get ideas, but also in order to allow newer members to ask questions about certain home screen widgets, what does what, and how things can be made so pretty! It took me a long time and lots of research to get mine how it is, and it would be great if we can help others achieve this a little more easily. In particular, i want to thank Drakaz for his amazing work on Galaxo 1.6.3 - anyone who is using his firmware and has the means should seriously consider a small show of gratitude; he saved me oodles of cash by improving the galaxy to the point that when i was about to give up on it and buy a new phone i didnt have to as he make it usable. So without further ado, here is my overclocked Galaxo 1.6.3.1 Samsung i7500; any q's at all, feel free to shoot Btw, one last thing - i just thought it would be interesting to note that uploading these screenshots has mate me realise how truly awesome the Galaxy OLED screen is. My PC has an excellent high resolution LED backlit screen, but has no where near the contrast or vibrancy of my galaxy screen. On my PC the background and general theme does not look anywhere near as good as it does on my phone.

I'm new to this place, but how many 2.1 threads do we need here?Starting 'anticipation' threads today is pointless! Helpful people on forums naturally give out all the news as and when it comes, so.If you think, "Sod it... I'll get it when they're ready to give me it", then join me here! Pour a drink, roll a number.... and chill... maybe even talk about something else in the meantime?(Haha - sorry guys... I'm having a bit of a giggle at your expense, but it's getting a bit 2.1 crazy in here!)

The monster Official HTC Incredible Thread is already over 3,000 posts. Predict when you think the HTC Incredible will be released in terms of post count of the Official thread. The group that is closest in predicting the post count of the Official thread when the phone is released will get something special, like the praise of thousands and I don't know... be the first ones to have Nash make them a custom background imageTo make things more fun, the time and date of release of the HTC Incredible will be determined by when the first customer posts his or her pictures of the phone after getting it from the store.

I placed my order for a Droid X for me and my wife on Friday at 6pm and I got notification that I will receive them both TODAY.I am pretty excited to get rid of my iPhone 3G and her to get rid of the dreaded Sidekick. I think she might be the last person on Earth with a Sidekick. But this will be our first Android phones and I am sure there will be a learning curve but I am a pretty big computer geek so it should be fun. I am sure I will be asking plenty of questions as well.

For the people who don't know, it takes 2 seconds (approximately) to help out thousands of people and become an AndroidForums celebrity! There are thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of people waiting for the Update.zip so they can manually update and finally end their longtime wait for Froyo.But the problem is everyone is seeing the notification and going "Oh hey, wow...yeah! Froyo!" and proceeds to install! And by you doing this, you get Froyo and everyone else is still stuck in a giant circle jerk, waiting for some generous person to share the update. So here's what you do. When the update pops up on your phone. Go into Astro File Manager (if you don't have it, download it from the Market) and go into the SDcard file system. You will see a file called "Update.zip" long press on it, select edit, copy, and then paste a copy of it in a folder of your choice on your SDcard. Later, hook your phone up to your computer and go into the file system, and get that Update.zip file out of that file that you chose and upload it to any file hosting site. Megauploads, rapidshare, even Google Docs would suffice. But a lot of people are waiting for this update! If you don't want to go through the steps to upload it to a file share website, private message me, I will give u my e-mail, u can e-mail it to me, and I will upload it to a file sharing site.

we have an estimated time frame on when HTC should be done with Froyo to have it released to the carriers.Android 2.2 Froyo Update: HTC Release Date Plans in 2010 : Product Reviews Net This thread is a little different though.There are several broad time frames out there in various articles. The consensus on what HTC said seems to be that they will be done in the second half of 2010 no earlier than July 1st.Here is my guess and let's all hope I am way off base.If HTC decides to use the same exact version of Sense they could be done by July 1st.I doubt they will do that because HTC loves being innovative with their software. With an update as big as Froyo should be I think there will be some big changes/additions to Sense UI. So with that said let's say HTC finishes in August.
Now it is Sprint's turn. I think they will drag their feet just like any other device update.First I believe they are going to really want to get rid of the biggest Froyo addition that they will likely see as a disadvantage, Free WIFI Tethering. On top of that I don't believe there will be many people complaining about an OS update. I think we make up a small percentage of the people that will actually buy the EVO. And half of us will just flash custom roms, so I doubt they will feel they need to rush to get an update out for us to use.

With all this talk about the Incredible coming to Verizon in April or May, I've been thinking about replacing my Droid Eris already... The phone is too slow for me, and the leaked 2.1 ROM I put on it is very buggy.I assume the Incredible will cost 200.00 for most people, but since I'll be buying it outright, as in no 2-year renewal or "new every two", how much can I expect to pay for this phone?

Let's hear your speculation about what you think is coming with the EVO - be it release dates, final specs, what it'll ship with (Prince of Persia?),I'm guessing it'll come with an 8GB card, wall charger...and that's about it. The Incredible shipped sans-headphones, so I'm fearing the same will be true for the EVO.

I have many devices, Archos 5, Gmini 402, Ngage, Dash, G1, Moto Droid (for two weeks), N900, Zen 32gb, Dingoo, DS, M11X and other devices (too many- I admit).The one common thing with all of these devices is they use basically the same battery technology. What do some folks expect out of a 1300mah battery having to do all this:
1. 3.7" hi res screen
2. Mulit-tasking in OS
3. Social apps
4. 3G
5. Wifi
6. GPS
7. Flash vids
8. Games
9. Audio & video decoding
10. 1ghz snapdragon
The device needs a bigger battery, or access to the chipset, so people use an app like SetCPU to set profiles for more relative dynamic clocking (for how user, uses the device).Perhaps rooting the device just for SetCPU would be worth the effort to to root? Maybe so.

I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.

I want to do the drawing in another thread to speed up the game(it is way to slow right now). I was told to do this but don't quite understand why that would speed things up. Is it GameView that should implement Runnable? Should I make the thread sleep when not drawing? where should I start the thread? package com.android.WWS;
import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Context; import android.graphics.*; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.SurfaceView; import android.view.KeyEvent; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnKeyListener; import java.lang.Runnable; import java.lang.Thread;...................

The Android doc says "Like activities and the other components, services run in the main thread of the application process." Is the main thread here the same thing as UI thread?

I spent last night playing with both my parents DroidXs and my wife's Evo all of which are still on 2.1. I can say without a doubt and everyone in the house agreed thier phones run better. Sure my phone scores better on linpack but it doesn't translate to better performance. I think any performace gains we think we have are just imagined. I was in the same boat as many of you. I thought it performed better until I ran them all side by side. Sure mine will play a couple of videos theirs won't but not many. Once you have about 3 different browsers they will play most things on 2.1. If you're on 2.1, stay there.

Where I can download the official 3.26.651.6 (Froyo) OTA zip file from? I can download the OTA via my phone, as I'm still on 2.1, but I'm rooted with Unrevoked3 and need the zip file to try an upgrade and I can't see to find it anywhere. Was hoping maybe someone here had a copy of the OTA zip somewhere. I don't need the 2.2 ROM, I'm just looking for the 86mb official OTA update zip file.
