The problem with this and what I cited is that they have yet to do a direct comparison between CBD and SAMOLED+ which is the question at hand.kharma45 said:
Further, do we really don't know (to my knowledge) whether the upcoming Nokia's use the same CBD generation - or something newer?
Sorry, no.Copernicus said:
It's simply the fact that current IPS inherently has more accurate color reproduction versus OLED. Apple isn't doing anything magical to improve the screen itself (it's possible they set up a color LUT though? Or maybe it's just default - no idea).
Color wise, my only serious gripe about iPhone (barring black-level) is that its whites are a tad cool (blue). It cleans up a bit if you jack brightness - though not perfectly - but that isn't a really realistic solution due to battery penalties. So I guess my issue is more about contrast and grey scale.

You're saying they actively pay for extra calibration? I'd like to see evidence for that lolCopernicus said:
More like they OEM panels withing certain tolerances that fall well within the norm for IPS screens. Color accuracy is one of IPS's core strengths by nature. It's like arguing Apple either improved or paid for improvement in off-access viewing of its screens. Sorry no, that's simply in the nature of IPS.
But the functionality still remains.OuterWorldVoice said:

Hey guys, 2 things:
1) Would a t-mobile branded german omnia 7 running on a different carrier be able to force mango? my sister has one, and i am not sure if that would work
2) is there a simple multi-track recording tool? i only found single track voice recorders, but sometimes when i have a spontaneous idea for a song or something and am not near a pc, i need at least 2 tracks.

Why does WP suck for ringtones? Not only did we have to wait for Mango to get them, for calls only, but the way they are managed is the biggest clusterfuck I've ever seen. I've been trying to get a ringtone on my phone for the past hour, what the fuck?
Why are there so many restrictions? Why can't we just get any song from our library and set it as a ringtone.
It pains me to think that my old featurephone from six years ago handled ringtones better.

If you smell burning, it's probably the generators acting up. Report it anyway.

What problems are you having exactly? All you need is to have it DRM free, under 40 seconds and less than 1MB in size

Can't find my file in Zune, even though I'm listening to it in Zune, and its folder is part of the Collections sources. I'm also having trouble shrinking my file under 1 MB (it's 39seconds and 1.21MB, weird seeing as it is originally a MIDI file).
I'm tired so that's probably why it's taken me *this* long, but Microsoft has no fucking excuse as to why a year in, we still can't select any song from our phone and set it as ringtone for calls, messages, mails, and alarms.
edit: the whole thing really sticks out from the rest of the experience. MS has made done an amazing job making a complex yet simple-to-use OS, but the ringtone thing is just awful. I've been pissed about it since day 1, and Mango hasn't done that much in that regard. A shame because I love my Omnia to death otherwise.
edit: FWIW, I got it done. However I think the average person will not want to reencode their songs online before reputting them in Zune, and then finally being able to select them on the phone.

It took me ~2 minutes to rip the Californication intro from YouTube, convert it to mp3, cut it the way I wanted and then sync it to my phone.MagniHarvald said:

Whoa. This is great. I hate the tiny power button on the Optimus 7.
I wonder if someone can help me out on the following:
- Any way to adjust the ring volume independently. To make a ring louder you need to make everything else louder. My Nokia 6190 15 years ago has independent ring volume control.
- Contact includes everything, even when it should not (i.e. it should exclude contact with no telephone attached when making phone call). I want the Contact from phone app show only people with phone number.
- email client does not follow my dark theme, any solution?
- can it display the whole status bar, instead of only showing the time? I want to know the signal strength all the time, because area I live in sometimes has dead spot.
- how to browse app available in Chinese?
Thanks.

Yes, I know how to do it on Samsung devices only however.
Not to my knowledge but it is a complaint I've had. I've had to remove these contacts after saving their email addresses separately on a document, because as you know removing them from your phonebook also removes them from your Live/Gmail address book strangely. The fuck MS?
This is intentional. You can't change it, and personally I think white background looks far better to read email on than black.
Touch the top middle of the screen and you'll see the status bar animation drop down temporarily. There is no way to keep there permanently .

I have an HTC Trophy through Verizon Wireless, and I received an update alert on the 27th. Whenever I got home, I started the update process through the Zune software, and everything seemed to go well. Problem is, I still have 7.0, not 7.5. Has anyone else here noticed an update coming through that isn't an update to 7.5?

Originally when I experimented with this it also increased the sound notifications as well as the ringer and in-call volume. However, since I've installed Mango, I haven't had this complaint. Although I'm not sure if its just my ears getting used to the loud notifications or whether or not they are now tolerable.
Here is how to do it
I would recommend you note down the original settings before you change them, in case you want to revert back.
