HTC HD c firmware Windows Phone?

A unique smartphone HTC HD2 was contributed builds Windows Phone 8. This provides a new forum thread on the site of the famous team of hackers DFT (Dark Force Team). Post made famous and earned the respect of the developer Cotulla and contains photographs, confirming launch WP8 on this smartphone.
HTC HD2 Windows Phone 8 Boot SystemDFT and Cotulla known since the time when the smartphone HTC working on Windows Mobile. But despite some loyalty products Micrsoft, these people developed a secondary boot loader (SPL), which allows you to run on smartphones with Windows Mobile only entered the market while Android. Of course, "the hero" at the time was the most geek released HTC smartphone called HD2. Android-device with a huge screen and a good "iron" had not yet been released, so many bought HTC HD2 only to install on it Android. Later, after leaving the arena of Windows Phone 7, DFT hackers took up new work - the creation of SPL and the development of third-party drivers for Windows Phone from HTC, and the transport of Systems of the good old HTC HD2.
When Microsoft explained why Windows Phone 8 will not appear on the old generation of Windows Phone, they argued about the hardware incompatibilities that can not be solved by the drivers. According to them, the new Windows Phone installed hardware encryption chip, the presence of which is simply necessary for Windows Phone 8. Apparently, Cotulla and his colleagues somehow managed to get around this point and run on HD2 Windows Phone 8. Judging by the pictures, the assembly is very much custom and hardly 100% workable. However, the main problem is solved, and the owners of HTC HD2 can only wait a while.If the creation of custom firmware based on Windows Phone 8 is possible for the HD2, then surely such firmware will soon be available for Windows Phone earlier generations. However, while we have the pictures of the publication itself firmware speech at the moment is not.

New Samsung Galaxy S4 Render by Alessio94X: All About Minimalism

Deviantart user Alessio94x has created a very interesting Samsung Galaxy S4 concept, that you can check out below, in two versions. He created two different versions of the camera sensor area, with the second one below being the more elegant and also larger one.

The handset looks pretty simplistic, minimalistic and feels like a comfortable thing to hold. I imagine that the back gives out a velvet-style feeling or it uses that nice finishing material that the BlackBerry PlayBook had for example.  The camera at the back of the Galaxy S4 features a dual LED flash and if I were to guess, I’d say that Samsung would finally jump to 10 or 12 megapixels this time. There’s also a discrete front camera and a very neatly integrated Home button too. I supposed that near it we find the usual Back and Menu buttons.
Since we’re going deeper into the future, this model could run Android 4.3 or Android 5.0 or whatever Key Lime Pie ends up being. It should also have LTE on board, NFC and an evolved version of the Nature UX, a new Smart Stay and definitely a new S Voice, that was a bit disappointing. The battery couldn’t hurt an upgrade as well. As far as CPU goes, an ARM Cortex A15 of the Exynos kind would be fine. When it comes to diagonal, everyone is talking about 5 inches, but what about the sweet spot of the Galaxy Nexus, at 4.65 inches? Could this Samsung Galaxy S4 take on the iPhone 5S?

The new shop-in-shop HTC in Germany

HTC launched a brand new shopping area in the electronics superstore Saturn. This is not the first Taiwanese company to establish such zones, where buyers can not simply buy a new smartphone, but comfortable to talk to him before the acquisition, read the promotional materials. However, the new store is used fresh style that goes beyond the old "cold" design.

HTC company has opened a so-called shop-in-shop in Hamburg, at an electronics store Saturn. In a way, this shop benefits of winning a standard single room. This area attracts people from far away, which, for example, came to look after myself a new TV, but seeing the beautiful and original design area went up to him and bought a smart phone. Or at least interested in it.By the way, store design contrasts nicely with the rest of Saturn and visible from afar. It seems, HTC is slowly abandon the cold style of white walls with futuristic green illuminated decorations. The new store attracts attention a home easy, brown "wood" shelves.
As has become tradition, except for the company's devices and branded accessories in the store is a rack with headphones Beats Audio, which can be tested in order to feel the improvements that have made both companies smartphones HTC. Unfortunately, very little of stores in Russia, and there are now well-designed parts at all. While a couple of these store-in-store in every major city could seriously raise brand awareness and to show that HTC has something to attract not only the geeks.

Windows Phone 7.8 this week?

For current information on the web says that an upgrade to Windows Phone 7.8 will come to existing smartphones this week. New firmware for published from the Windows Phone 7 on board will bring new features and some improvements in existing functions. However, most of the innovations are still shrouded in mystery.
\A source portal Windows Phone Poweruser claims that Windows Phone 7.8 release to take place later this week, to be precise - on Wednesday, November 28. This update should somewhat reduce the general roar of discontent by Microsoft, which promised long and up to date on his smartphone operating system and compares it with such bad not being updated on Nexus-devices Android. However, at the first presentation of a new major version of the mobile OS said that all that came before the announcement of Windows Phone 8 Smartphone upgrade to it will not receive due to hardware incompatibility. To mitigate the negative reaction, MSFT and presented Windows Phone 7.8. 
Apparently, at that time, the company is not able to decide which features to owners of the "old" smartphone. Definitely, it was stated that the Windows Phone 7.8, they will get a new desktop with multidimensional tiles. Now, there is information about the Bing wallpaper for the lock screen and the new color scheme. It is likely that Windows Phone 7.8 will also support SMS-drafts and the Wi-Fi when locking the phone, and rumor and the activation data via Bluetooth. But this is certainly not all innovations. And while we wait for the official update, you can see how it works on the Nokia Lumia 510 from China. 
If you own an "old» Windows Phone, what do you expect from an upgrade? What features would you like most?

New improvements to the Windows Phone from HTC

We have described those exclusive features and applications that the company has added to its new Windows Phone. However, HTC is constantly working to improve the user experience for their devices, and the next update for Symbian Windows Phone 8 may bring two new features.
 
In new images received from our Chinese colleagues, presented Windows Phone 8S, the cheapest smartphone with the new mobile OS from Microsoft, which has several interesting features that are missing in the firmware flagship 8X. First, the images were seen by many as a welcome feature - "maintaining Wi-Fi-connection when locking the screen." Windows Phone you lock the screen after a while disconnects from the Wi-Fi, even if some data transferred. The new version of the OS MSFT not fix it, but not so long ago is still reported to be working on the problem. It seems, HTC decided not to wait for the developers of the system and make your own implementation of the function.The second innovation - Save a draft of SMS-messages, such a function is also not yet in Windows Phone. However, there is speculation that this is a systemic innovation, and HTC has nothing to do with them. In support of this is the picture where the source of leak on the board all presented a new generation of Windows Phone, not just smartphones HTC. In addition, both the "chips" look exactly like the system, Microsoft may not have access to such deep inside HTC OS. However, the exact origin of the new features we will know only after subsequent updates smartphones.

HTC Droid DNA against Nexus 4

HTC Droid DNA can without exaggeration be called the most powerful and advanced Android-leader in 2012. For the most part it makes a magnificent win five-inch display with FullHD-resolution. Interestingly, this is also the most controversial option in the smartphone, many believe it is too large. We shall try without unnecessary emotions compare Droid DNA with one very interesting and technically similar to him smartphone - Nexus 4.
Nexus 4, produced by the Korean company LG specifically for Google, - powerful and modern smartphone. In fact, the first line of smartphone Nexus, which can compete with the current flagship of any manufacturer. Keep it in the hands of people say that it is not only the best of everything that made the mobile division of the company LG, but also a serious contender for the title of most advanced Android-smartphone of the year.
Nexus 4 by LG versus Droid DNA by HTC ViewThe comparison should start with the appearance of the device and the materials from which they are made. HTC Droid DNA from a large screen looks very extended, though it gives it a special charm. Shape it is typical for smartphones HTC, the company decided to keep the flagship model recognizable features. Almost the entire front side of the protective glass covers, under which is not only the screen, but also the control unit of the three touch buttons. Just above the screen legend and Verizon earpiece. Here, wide-angle front camera and proximity / light. The back of a black, a camera eye, surrounded by a red ring, next to the flash. As always, in the middle of the housing inscription HTC, at the bottom - logos 4G LTE and Beats Audio, is a hands-free speaker. Housing molded, created from a nice plastic.Nexus 4 almost preserved hull form previous smartphone in the series, but was a different design and materials. Cover your screen Nexus 4 glass is not concave, and even a little above the edges of the housing. Under it is also rather big screen, but the pad is not, they are virtual. Just below the screen is hidden under a protective glass notifying LED which is visible only when some event. Front camera above the screen, sensors, and dynamic slot. Back "cover» Nexus 4 is made of glass with a secure beautiful pattern which is visible only at certain angles smartphone. Across the cover, in the upper part, there is a large inscription made white NEXUS. Just above her eye camera with flash. At the bottom of a small smartphone manufacturer's logo.Now look at the screens of both smartphones. There is a five-inch Droid DNA matrix with a resolution of 1920 x 1080, executed on technology Super LCD 3. The number of pixels per inch - 440. Nexus 4 also boasts a high-quality screen with a diagonal of 4.7 inches and a resolution of 1280 x 720, 320 ppi. It is made by technology True IPS HD Plus. On quality color display and screen brightness are quite similar, but the picture is much clearer on the Droid DNA - affects more dense arrangement of pixels. However, to see the difference, you need to put both phones side by side.Nexus 4 by LG versus DROID DNA by HTCSurprisingly, the hardware filling these smartphones is very similar. Why is that amazing? Because the test results differ markedly. But back to the "iron." And HTC Droid DNA, and Nexus 4 from LG feature quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro (APQ8064) with a frequency of 1.5 GHz and accelerator Adreno 320. Both have the same amount of RAM to 2 GB and 16 GB of data recording, memory card slot no. It is worth saying that the Nexus 4 is also the version with 8 GB on board, but it is sold only through the Play Store.As mentioned above, the difference in the test results with such similar stuffing is staggering. HTC Droid DNA down market leading synthetic benchmarks and some reasonable explanation for this finding is not yet possible. However, look at the numbers for yourself:AnTutu Benchmark Nexus 4 versus Droid DNAAnTutu Benchmark:- HTC Droid DNA 14537
 - Nexus 4 10,048Quadrant Nexus 4 versus Droid DNAQuadrant:- HTC Droid DNA 8142
 - Nexus 4 4870SmartBench Nexus 2012 4 versus Droid DNASmartBench 2012:- HTC Droid DNA normal 4588 points in 2524 games
 - Nexus 4 3171 normal glasses, 3253 gameVellamo Nexus 4 versus Droid DNAVellamo:- HTC Droid DNA 1757 HTML5, 630 METAL
 - Nexus 4954 HTML5, 621 METALOf course, Nexus 4 is still ahead of most of today's champions in performance, but his loss Droid DNA serious. It is quite possible that in the Nexus is not the most optimal drivers, because they never opened. But at the moment we have what we have.Both smartphones are set high quality camera with a resolution of 8 megapixels. However, HTC Droid DNA still benefits from a more interesting and functional software. However, Android 4.2 on Nexus 4 includes a feature PhotoSphere, allows you to shoot spherical panoramas, which looks quite interesting and original. The front camera has a resolution of 4 Nexus 1.3 MP, nothing outstanding, but with their functions to cope. In a wide-Droid DNA-facing camera with BSI-backlit display and a resolution of 2.1 megapixels, it can take a much larger area that is convenient for family video calls.Both smartphones support almost all modern methods of data transmission, it makes no sense to list them. However, the flagship of HTC for Verizon boasts and official support LTE, while the Nexus 4 allegedly deprived of this function. Interestingly, the corresponding chip in a smartphone, but it's blocked. Today craftsmen ran it through the engineering menu and were even able to use to download the data (frequency, however, supported by a fairly limited). Most likely, Google and LG at the last minute decided not to complicate the production installation of different antennas and abandoned this technology in general.Since the case of smartphones, one-piece, the battery is not removable. Capacity built in Droid DNA is 2020 mAh battery, the Nexus is a little over four capacious - 2100 mAh. Both smartphones are not the winners of the competition for longevity, but looks are on par with other similar devices. It seems that wireless charging is a trend, since both competitors support it without problems.In Nexus 4 is the freshest Android 4.2 Jelly Bean without any shells, smartphone will be the first to receive updates for at least another year and a half. HTC Droid DNA can only boast of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, however, it is installed on top of the shell HTC Sense 4 +, which many pridetsyasya to taste.Finally made it to one of the most important points of comparison devices - price. HTC Droid DNA without a contract Verizon will cost $ 599, with a two-year contract of $ 199. Nexus 4 with 16 GB of internal memory in the Google Play is $ 349, which is much cheaper than "free» DNA. For U.S. residents the choice between the smart phones is determined by many factors, including those not dependent on the characteristics (such as "beloved by the operator"). Apparently, the device expects a serious competition.

HTC is "on the mend"

It seems that the patent deal between HTC and Apple had a positive impact on the financial performance of the company - they are beginning to level off. Sell ​​well and the new Taiwan-based device, finally have found a buyer. How to evaluate these indicators analysts?
Online edition Focus Taiwan with reference to various analysts claims that HTC finally emerged from a prolonged peak and in the future may improve outcomes. One reason for this - an important patent deal with Apple, which allows Taiwanese companies will no longer be afraid of lawsuits by Americans. Also fresh report Goldman Sachs confirms increasing interest in some of the new products of the company, especially in the Asian market. For example, the home of HTC sold out black party Windows Phone 8X, based on the flagship mobile operating system from Microsoft. In fact, buyers are more than interested in other colors, but HTC just does not deliver them.At Goldman Sachs note and good sales HTC One Sx, despite the fact that the company did not have time to run to the national season holiday weekend. HTC is trying to fill the shops this smartphone, but the demand far exceeds supply. It all looks rosy, but it appears that the company did not expect such a success of new products - in need of smartphone buyers are forced to choose competitive products due to the lack of smartphones HTC. Naturally, the Taiwanese manufacturer loses this a decent amount.Despite the above improvements, HTC have to choose the right way and the audience to seriously strengthen the brand. According to analysts, this is the only chance for Taiwan-based exit from the current crisis and greatly improve the situation. HTC is very difficult to compete with such strong brands like Apple and Samsung, many new buyers simply overlooked Taiwanese devices by choosing one of those that offer larger competitors. HTC to use the ten-year lull in the war with Apple and strengthen the fight against Samsung and other companies. By the way, the last quarter for the first time in a long time showed an increase Sony Mobile (former Sony Ericsson), and the latest products LG priced very high, so that there were two HTC serious competitor for a place in the TOP manufacturers of smartphones.

HTC Droid DNA and Alerts

Modern smartphone is not only for calls. While this feature is still in demand, are gaining popularity other modes of communication, such as a text. Its importance as a center of communications with intelligence forces manufacturers to approach the organization way to alert the user to the event or because of missed messages can be very important. It is for this reason that on the front of almost any smart phone has an LED. But many users prefer to place the phone face down - HTC Droid DNA in the new thinking about them.
Even during the announcement of the new HTC Droid DNA superflagmana attentive journalists interested in the strange "grid" on the left of the camera. It is round and has 61 holes. (Yes, yes, even journalists have estimated the number of holes). Assumptions about its purpose was much, most of all favored the additional speaker or microphone noise reduction. However, the response was more interesting - under the "bars" hidden extra LED notifying the missed event! Now it only notifies the green, but the craftsmen certainly will remove these restrictions.One would think that such a small thing about the American HTC Droid DNA do not separate even a modest amount of paper. But it is such a small fad and the care of all types of smart phone users make truly loved and tie a simple user to a brand. Of course, to make "the perfect phone for all" unreal, a growing share of Android-device proves it. But now, each mobile device should cover the maximum possible audience - the times "muzykofonov", "camera phone" and other niche devices passed.

Render Global HTC DLX web

The U.S. and Japan started their own version of the New superflagmana from HTC: Land of the Rising Sun was J butterfly, Americans got Droid DNA. According to rumors, in mainland China and Taiwan, the device with index HTC DLX appear on store shelves in early December. Is the global market will have to wait for new items with a gorgeous screen until next year? It is likely that it is not - its version of DLX will appear soon and the Europeans.

Generator known "leakages" twitter account @ evleaks published render HTC DLX in its global version. In any case, that's stated in the caption to the photo. It also says that the device is within the company referred to as the HTC Delux, it is the next version of the flagship Dlx with FullHD-five-inch screen.
 
Unfortunately, no specific information on the device is not, and in fact it would be interesting to know whether the Euro-version LTE. While no assumptions about the timing of the product launch and its estimated cost.If HTC announces HTC Delux on the global market in the near future, in February at the Taiwanese have trouble with the annual announcement. HTC DLX - quite powerful and advanced device with great screen and a powerful quad-core processor inside. What company will be able to show the new MWC? Is just such a smartphone, but with a processor based on the Cortex-A15 inside or the best camera? It all looks very doubtful, and the owners of HTC Delux feel deprived, which in turn have a negative impact on the image of the Taiwanese manufacturer.

Super LCD 3 - a big step forward ... and two back

For years, the company HTC tries to move away from all the technology and Samsung use its own work. As for this and such an important part of the modern smartphone as a display, is placed on the Taiwanese Super LCD. Until recently, the two Super LCD screen HTC One X was considered the best in the world. A month ago, along with the HTC J butterfly was presented and the third iteration of his beloved HTC technology, which was praised by all the media. But the announcement of the Droid DNA, more accessible to the majority of journalists, debunk some myths about the Super LCD 3.

Publication Gizmodo Droid DNA delivered in line with competitors and compared the screens. As you know, the race for the "invisible pixel" beginning, the company Apple, introduced the iPhone 4 Retina display with the name. According to marketers, the number of pixels per inch it is that at a comfortable distance for they are indistinguishable to the human eye. Naturally, this is not true and most people see the individual pixels on the vaunted Retina Display without a magnifying device and over-approximation. However, manufacturers of smartphones with Android-joined the race easily and quickly surpassed screen device from Apple by DPI, the number of pixels per inch.
The new Super LCD screen 3 immediately struck his 440 pixels per inch, which made the image on it is almost firm. Now distinguish individual pixels without magnification possible. Of course, there are several people with the peculiarities of that can do that, but there really is not much. Gizmodo test shows that in this parameter display Droid DNA and leaves behind the iPhone 5, and One X, Nexus and 4 on the display of the Galaxy S III Samsung is no question at all - PenTile on closer examination seriously spoil the picture.But even without the approximation becomes clear - something loses three Super LCD screens HTC One X and the iPhone 5. First of all, we are talking about light, it is a newer version than the previous technology, and noticeable. The screen of the flagship Apple also noticeably brighter. However, the photographs of the journalist at the presentation of The Virge HTC J butterfly, yaponizirovannogo fellow Droid DNA with the same screen, the display is noticeably brighter than the Taiwanese smartphone. So leave the matter to enter such a device to the Russian market, then we can independently evaluate it.Another big problem detected Gizmodo screen HTC Droid DNA - cyanosis white. Super LCD 2 by HTC One X is much more honest in this aspect, and the display Apple iPhone 5 white whiter. Again, the worst in a white display screen was recognized as Samsung Galaxy S III.
A little later, the tests have joined Nokia Lumia 920 and Samsung Galaxy Note II. Last screen was the worst even compared to SGS3, Lumia 920 falls behind in displaying colors, but not so bad in brightness.
