Noob question - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i just joimed these forums after lurking around for the past 5 months. i dont have an android phone as they came out after i signed my tmo contract, but am planning on a slide or vibrant in august . anywayz, i was just wondering if everything in the android hacking section will work on any rooted phone.

Not in the Mytouch 3G slide hacking section, that is for the Mytouch slide.
Each phone on xda should have its own hacking/development section.

so nothing in the general android development and hacking will work on the slide?

some of the general android hacks may work on the slide but for the most part i stay in here, every now and then you may see something in that forum to try but please make sure it is not a new SPL or Radio, and always make a backup first

New to the Dash - Few questions???

I just came from a T-Mobile G1 which was rooted. I now have a Dash 3G and am wondering a couple of things. Will the ROMs cooked for the original Dash work with this phone or is there another forum that might be better for me? Also I see that in order to use such ROMs the phone must be application unlocked, is this the same process as the Excalibur. I have searched and found lots of answers to all my questions, that doesnt surprise me as I have experience with XDA and I love this forum. Thank you all and forgive me if I posted in the wrong forum, I am new to this phone and just trying to find my way.

shift/ mogel thread

i would like you to take a second look at the thread you moved to the htc bored
i posted it were i did for two reasons
1. unless im wrong all the cdma shifts esn's are data only so the onlly way to end up with voice and data is to change the esn...
i dont know if any info would be needed from my mougl and shift to right a working hardspl,rom and radio so i posted them both there.
2. all the cdma shift threads are dead the last hint of any beta hardspl's or rom's was a year ago ...
i posted it were i did were i did so it would be seen and not lost in a dead thread .
my hope is by offering the cash and phone some one will take the time to put together the hardspl and rom's we need
please think about moving it back thanks

When do you think the slide will get android 2.2??

Why would you make *this* your first post on the XDA forums? Seriously, you created a *NEW* thread just to ask a question that nobody here would really know the answer to? A question that has already been asked a hundred times!
Please, for the love of all that is good and right in this world, think before you post. Search before you post. And count to ten and ask yourself, "Is this the right forum to ask this question?" before you post.

lmfao!!!!
according to the timeline that was leaked we should get it at the end of this month.
It could be a month, it could be 2 or it could be several. Just be happy you have a phone that works. It will be out when its out. if you want it so soon learn to do it your self and do it your self.
Wow I swear everyone thinks there a mod. It would be nice if someone just answered his question. Not everyone is on the computer day and night researching the **** out of there phone. I am really starting to hate these forums.

I spoke to my htc rep today and she said the original mytouch 3g will be getting the update to 2.2 at the end of this month and the mytouch 3g slide will be recieving the update sometime in august because of the htc sense they are having issues making it compatiable

Agreed. So one could do one of two things.
1) google: mytouch slide 3g android 2.2 release date, obtain answer.
2) locate android development forum, create a new account, confirm account, write message asking question, wait 6 hours, obtain answer.
But to be fair he asked when we think the slide will get it and not if we had any real information... so... July 27th at 2:45PM EDT.
Really?
What a waste of a thread wheres the moderator when you need em
Why does it take them so long to release an update? When new windows come out for millions of different pc's they have it working in days if it doesn't already work out the box.Here we have something smaller than even nlited windows xp,and it takes them months.Is it that hard to write drivers for these phones or they just taking they sweet time?If its that hard why not make it simple,make a program for android like nlite that slipstreams drivers and we good to go,is there a reason for all this compexity?
One more quistion does bios on these phones ever gets updates?

Main differences is, with PCs, the hardware is modular, and it is left up to the individual hardware components manufacturer's to make sure everything is up to date. The phone is an all in one. Add on top of that, the Sense UI that allows you to basically change the entire look and feel of the OS. So the core updates have to take all the variances in hardware into consideration.
Right Now the First Slide Froyo Rom is out now...but its really buggy

Why one word comes to mind TROll. Someone said 10 min I guess I missed that update Now I have to wait till "July 27th at 2:45PM EDT".
is all that really necessary? we have a rom, yes it needs work, but now we can let the flaming die and do some work. if someone asks a question that seems obvious, just dont respond. eventually they will either find the answer on their own, or they will give up. its annoying to watch this forum for updates and information when half the posts are to flame someone. someone wants to mention wasting threads, recover the thread and make it useful.
now that there is a rom to work with, does anyone want to work on making it usable while the experienced devs build something with some polish?
Sufficient number of threads on this topic already; closed.

Is there a Slide ROM available comparable to the N1's OS?

I have a Nexus One, absolutely love it, best phone I've ever had tried. My girlfriend just upgraded to a MyTouch Slide, and all the wonderful enhancements that HTC and TMobile have added to make users lives easier are so great that we want to know how to get them off the phone quickly and easily. She likes how easy to use my N1 is, and I'm hoping there's a ROM that's comparable, and usable by a non-techie user.
I'm quite technically competent, but have barely begun to dip my toes in the Android hacking waters. I rooted my phone for practice and have rooted her's as well. I can take complicated instructions or not-for-beginners advice, but as to how to get that advice, I'm a noob.

You say you are technically competent, and yet you post in the wrong section.
Check my signature.
I also said I was unaware how to properly find advice. Thanks for reading that part before mocking me. Also, I asked a question about the MyTouch Slide in the MyTouch Slide forum. I again apologize for such an obvious oversight on my part.
As for the TeamFenix ROM, I'll check it out. Thanks.
Seriously?? Use the search! There are quite a few ROMs on here already. Oh yeah and questions go in the Questions and Answers section, unless they are development related.

If u want n1 experience I would a froyo rom. Either cm6, eugene's, or team fenix. Then download launcherpro and there u go.
Sent from my MR1 V4 Remix 3G using XDA App
Your best bet would be to get cm6 on both handys they will have the latest features and will be almost identical if you want to set them up that way, the biggest diff is that stock slide roms are "sense" roms which is why the UI is so much different, so get cm6 for both and do a lot of reading and you'l be fine...
You will get flamed less if you have enuff knowledge to ask the right question properly, so search first ask questions later
Bhang

Moto cliq 2 help

Just hopeing so.me devs can help with recovery and member on android forums.com to develope a custom rom.
There's not much going on for this fone and I keep doing searches
And not finding any progress.
Sent from my MB611 using XDA App
You're better off going here. I have to say, I hate visiting other sites besides XDA, but there's no Cliq 2 section.
There's lots of info there for Cliq 2 development, and some people got pretty far, but no custom roms yet. Since there never was a Cliq section, I don't know if we'll ever see a Cliq 2 section. Believe me Cliq has lots of support, and yet no XDA section. Cliq 2 is a way better phone, but I don't know if we'll ever see a XDA section for it.
my power button is completely hashed and i was hoping i could get some help with it,see i can turn it back but i just mash the flipout keyboard buttons intil it turns on
