i don't remember any htc software that was good at all

lucky bastard. Though I can't say I'm unhappy with my Epic 4G Touch. Thing is a powerhouse the only thing I wish it had was NFC

FU to virgin for taking so long, or you're just going to use the phone unattached to any provider?

Re: Android Phones - backfire - 02-04-2012
Been wonderin this for a while. Anyone know of a way to launch an exe or batch file on my computer from my phone? Was thinkin if there was a way I could just select a shortcut/widget from my launcher to start something like a shutdown script or whatever on my computer.
Re: Re: Android Phones - HeK - 02-04-2012
Besides android vnc or rdp, you could try remote launcher

Remote Launcher looks like exactly what I was looking for, but I can't get a connection established. Tried both via lan and an external connection with my router set to forward the port, but still get a "Connection failed: Connection timed out, please check your config" error.

So I updated to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
It's smooth. Like butter.

My provider is sending me a Samsung Galaxy SIII because my contract is up and I was willing to renew it (and downsize the calling minutes because I don't call much). Can't wait.
Re: Android Phones - Evil Cheese - 07-17-2012
Anybody else upgrade their Galaxy S II/Skyrocket to ICS yet? So far I dig the UI enhancements and new features, but GPS seems to take longer to lock (I admit I haven't actually done much testing on this) and battery life gets raped worse than before when I'm in a an area with low reception (such as my office building) but that may also have something to do with LTE as well. I had to ditch TouchWiz for Nova Launcher though, as TW is slower and feels a lot more like Gingerbread than ICS.
Re: Android Phones - HeK - 07-17-2012
Current gen LTE radios are very power hungry.
No real point going LTE until providers start to max out their HSPA bandwidths.
Re: Android Phones - at0m - 07-17-2012
Still waiting for CM9 to come out for my Inspire 4G....
