[COMP] HTC Desire vs Incredible

The Incredible will be released soon in the US - around 2 weeks.
Rumoured specifications seem better than the Desire, eg 8MP camera
I don't know if it will work in the EU and given its imminent release, I'm surprised the Incredible doesnt have its own sub-forum.
Anyone know what the deal is with the HTC Incredible and why there isn't more interest at XDA?

1 - Its CDMA (Verizon).
2 - Very little is known about it (maybe 1 or 2 pictures).
3 - Since it's CDMA and none of the international carriers are selling it, once again not a lot is known.
Those are just my ideas (WTF do I know?). Give it some time. Once it hits, people will start talking.

XDA is more a development site for phones that are already released. Once released (April 6th my uneducated guess) there will be more interest. There is more info at other sites, I will PM you the address

the Desire have more RAM (576 MB) and better battery (1400 mAh), and also the desire is rumored to have 720p recording, the camera is a boost to the incredible
multitouch bug is not a big issue IMO

No, that's actually been debunked.

I didn't like the original images that were leaked but the new images with more detail paints it in a different light. I also didn't like the low ram specs that were initially released but it seems that has be corrected. I may get one. I'm getting tired waiting for the desire.

there are many ROMs from other devices ported successfully (including Desire S, Desire HD, Sensation,...)
this one is interesting because it is sense 3 like sensation, BUT it is properly sized for WVGA resolution!
then it is important that it is newest android 2.3.5 build.
some things like camera and glithes will probably not be fixed with porting this, but we will have pretty decent ROM with all newest features.

Nope you cannot flash a Desire S ROM to your HD2, that would never work. The ROM would need to be ported for our device first. I would imagine that someone is working on porting this for us...but we will need to wait and see...or start porting it ourselves.

Don't be confused by Wiki.
Snapdragon CPU includes two processors, one is application processor and another is modem processor.
When we talk about the whole CPU, I think the name Snapdragon is more proper than Scorpion.
Source: http://tjworld.net/wiki/Android/Qualcomm/MsmChipsets
Most HTC devices have at their core Qualcomm System-on-Chip (SoC) Mobile Station Modem (MSM) integrated circuits. These are based on Advanced RISC Machines Ltd. (ARM) micro-processor and supporting systems designs. In most Smart Phone devices the SoC consists of two ARM micro-processors, one to manage the communications hardware (radio transmitters) and the other to manage the user applications and interface. These are generally known as the modem (or radio or baseband) processor and the applications (or apps) processor. These processors may not be identical since their functions are different.

[QUESTION] Porting Sense 3.5 to wildfire S

I have my HTC Wildfire S A510e with the last Android 2.3.5 (for WFS) and sense 2.1.
I have one question, for the developers of XDA.
Is possible to port the Original ROM of HTC EXPLORER EUROPE (2.3.5 - Sense 3.5) in the HTC Wildfire S A510e (update the sense from 2.1 to 3.5)??.
HTC EXPLORER EUROPE
display 3.2" (81,3 mm) Res. 320x480 - CPU. Qualcomm 600 MHz - Rom 512MB Ram 512MB - Camera 3.0 megapixel
WFS
display 3.2" (81,3 mm) Res. 320x480 - CPU Snapdragon MSM7227 a 600 MHz, GPU Adreno 200 - Rom 512MB Ram 512MB - Camera 5.0 megapixel
Is possible make this?
I find the look of Sense 3.5 is very amazing.

it would be quite awesome to say the least. i'm sure we have the talent to do it lurking in our forums, but whether or not it will happen would depend on the free time and desires of said talent. i'd love to see this, or a port of the new 4.0 ICS with sense that just got released.

I would also love a port of sense 3.5 on our devices.

I've ported it but it needs proper drivers. Maybe someone can fix it. Ill upload it if anybody's interested.

Sense 3.0 and 3.5 roms are typically rather large. I have pulled a Pico RUU [called a zero sense I think but its 3.5 just lightweight]. Unfortunately I'd be deving for marvelc side to begin with (we're still stuck with 2.3.4 roms), but I have got that aforementioned RUU in my "to do" [port sense] pile, right after I build the 2.3.5 kernel and see if that will boot marvelc side. I suppose if things look bleak and I feel like really taking on projects [just hobbying now], I could buy a T-mo WFS and that way I would have a model on both sides [gsm and cdma],.. but no immediate plans on that. Where did Jikarantu sneak off to? He'd be the one you'd want to hit up; if he is lurking about somewhere.
Regards,
Rob

I remember looking at s thread that teaches you how to port sense versions on sense enabled roms ill have a look tomorrow

Desire X or HTC One V better specs for gaming ??

Hi guys i am pretty confused about the new desire x phone release till this time One V was the one for me after extensive research but now am pretty perplexed as to whic h would be better for gaming as well as decent battery(i.e atleast a day on moderate usage).
am pretty unsure as Desire x seems awesome compared to one v but the gpu seems sad
my main requirements are :
720p video playback
casual gaming(temple run,cut the rope,etc) along with ocassional fps(nova,shadowgun)
good battery life as already said(atleast a day)
fast for basic operations eg messaging etc
not really big on multitasking max three apps.
thank you.

All except the gpu is in favor of Desire X. Especially 4 inch screen, dual core and RAM. Battery though touted higher capacity than oneV, real-life usage depends lot on other things since it will have to cater to a powerful processor and bigger screen area. I expect the battery life may be comparable between both and just like the oneV, desireX will give more than a days battery backup for an average user ( i easily get about 2 days on OneV). I cannot tell difference between the GPU though.

that the problem for me so am confused as to how the gaming performance may be affected and also the ability of the phone to play hd videos.

Desire X is better than htc one V it has dual core and i think a bit more ram as one v
One V records 720 p videos really good sound and video quality
Desire X can take 800x480p videos but i dont know how the quality of the sound and video is
Every day usage one V is very good up to 2 days
Desire X half to one day
Htc one V is for gaming a little bit laggy but its ok adreno 205
Desire X is better for gaming andreno 200
Gpu from one v is better than desire X
My tipp buy a desire X htc will definitly bring a update to take 720p videos if not the developers are here in the xda forum xdd
Correct me if i said something wrong
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium

I would wait for a review with benchmarks.
Comparing the two spec wise: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4951&idPhone2=4575
The Desire X has more memory and has a compass and it's dual core.
The One V has better camera (at least on the software side - no 720p video recording) and a better GPU.
Also, the CPU in the X is based on an older ARM spec than the One V, so performance per core is probably lower (but I haven't seen comparative benchmarks yet).

It would be better to wait till the release of desire X, if you can.
Two benefits, one you get to know the exact features - mostly phones differ much from what is leaked out before launch. Video recording and such are software enhancements over capable hardware and may suddenly appear in the retail edition even if not on preview sets. (Recall the big discussions on oneV not having an FM radio!)
Second- you get some serious benchmarks and user inputs as guardianpt pointed out. Better than to feel sorry later, right? So my advice - hold your decision

Thank you
I think i need to delay my decision by a few months i suppose though .
and i thank you all for helping out in this confusion.

Well, anandtech says adreno 203 for the Desire X, and did not have good things to say about it.
One thing I purchased the One V for to replace my Desire was the screen, same size but way brighter and more vivid. This is thanks to the scld versus slcd 2. The Desire X saved on cost by going with the older slcd as opposed to the One V's slcd 2. I will wait for anandtech's review before saying it with authority.......but right now I am willing to bet our One V's screen kills the Desire X.
The screen is the thing you spend 100% of your time looking at on a smartphone (brilliant deduction.....I know!) so I wouldn't want to go with a lessor screen.
Personaly, better build (the One V really is a successor to the legend), better screen, better gpu, I am definately NOT regretting my one V purchase.
Edit: here is a quote from Anandtech:
"it has a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Play inside. Unlike the Snapdragon S4 SoC we're familiar with, the 28 nanometer model with a pair of 1.5 GHz Krait cores and an Adreno 225 graphics processor, the S4 Play (MSM8x25) is a 45 nanometer SoC that uses a pair of 1 GHz ARM Cortex A5 cores and Adreno 203 graphics. Performance wise, ARM says that a Cortex A5 can deliver 1.57 DMIPS/MHz. To put that into some perspective, the Cortex A8 delivers 2.0 DMIPS/MHz, and the Cortex A9 that's inside many of today's devices can pump out 2.50 DMIPS/MHz. Update: The HTC Desire X has shown up in RightWare's Powerboard, confirming MSM8225. Qualcomm's Krait core can do 3.30 DMIPS/MHz, more than double the performance of ARM's Cortex A5."
So, there you have it, 45nm process cortex A5.............this is not the S4 you have been looking for!

The S2 processor is the scorpion family, and is capable of 2.1 dmips / mhz. This is per clock speed, running at 1.0 ghz.
For example, the G2 uses a scorpion S2 at 800mhz, the dmips would then be 80%, the max speed of the scorpion is 1.4ghz (as found in the lumina 900) so the speed would increase. The S3 and up allowed dual core and upgraded to the adreno 220. The S3 is still scorpion though, so an dual core S3 at 1.4ghz each would be capable of (2.1*1.4*2) or 5.88 dmips
Anandtech is very respected, if they say the Desire X has a crappy underperforming processor.....then it does! It will probably be fine with dual cores and driving the same resolution on a larger screen. For me, I am very happy with my One V purchase. The Desire X makes too many comprimises.

that cleared it up well enough .
since you use a one v can you let me know for graphic intensive fps say any of the popular titles is it lagging .
not big on multitasking so not much there but where do you feel the problems lie like does it feel underpowered or low on ram or anyrhing like that ?

i lost my v and an lookin for replacement.........
waht do u guys sugesst ?????

Okay, i just get my desire x.
I can play Modern Combat 3, Wild Blood and Dead Trigger from appstore very smooth.
Dont know why people saying gaming is not possible with desire x, they´re lying (sure this issnt TEGRA but very good for this price, trust me!)
just my 5 cents
EDIT: I got Sensation too, Sensation is also Good for gaming but i did not notice any difference between this devices...(performance wise, the desire is a smoother in my opinion)

[Q] HTC One V [vs] HTC Desire VC

So I'm planning to buy a new phone. And this time I've decided on HTC. But I can't choose between HTC Desire VC or the HTC One V. Which one is better? Both have similar specs but the HTC Desire VC is priced little higher which is not the problem. I'm not able to decide which one to buy. Need some expert recommendations!
This will also happen to be my first Android experience.

hmmm.. i love my one v.. the looks the feel the thin body.. chin posture.. u can't get in desire vc... if ur a gamer then u must go with desire... s rich looking phone is obviously one v

This will be my first Android phone, I'll generally use the phone for applications and few games. Not hardcore gaming like Shadowgun etc, but maybe Real Racing 2 kinda stuff.
Moreover I want a phone that is eligible for a Jelly Bean update in the future. I'm not sure if the HTC Desire V/VC is eligble for an update yet. I don't want to be stuck with a phone that can't be updated from ICS.
Also What do you guys think about the Samsung Galaxy S Advance? In comparison to the HTC One V and Desire V/VC

Go for HTC One V

ONE V
I would consider the One V any day.
Better design, sleeker, better QUALITY (SLCD 2) Display, better processor, better GPU, better recording (HD vs WVGA). And last but not the least.. Chin. :laugh: :good:

One V because now moving on JB, the importance of a better GPU in Android world will become more and more mandatory.

one v is not very good for gaming..well, for games like temple run and angry birds etc it works fine. if anyone wants to play games like blood and glory and frontline commando, custom firmware must be installed; on stock its just slow and laggy. phone warms up very much while playing games and using the internet. when u get a one v,its true potential should be unlocked by rooting,then gaming is more fun.i have experimented o much with my one v, it has not once posed a problem... love my one v.....
