At least the infuse has a battery life that could last 2 days of moderate use and the GPS works all the time. So far from what I have seen the infuse is kick a$$.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gunnyman:
I think Google made a huge mistake contracting out their experience phone to Samsung. HTC is the best manufacturer on Android right now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mj0528:
Thanks for the good feedback! Being new to android and this being my first android, I know nothing more than the inspire. Definitely going to stick with this phone
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Good for you. Maybe you'd have a great Samsung experience, but there's a reasonable chance, based on a lot of people's experience, that you wouldn't.

See, it's not just about whether you have a working Samsung phone in your hands personally. It's about Samsung's corporate philosophy.

In my travels on this site and the web in general, the difference in the experiences of people doing warranty exchanges for the samsung captivate versus the HTC Inspire couldn't be any more apparent.

People who had to exchange their captivates often were on their 2nd, 3rd, or more phone, with the replacement phone having the same, if not more problems than the phone they were replacing.

The people who've had to return inspires, on the other hand, the number of which appears a lot less, seem to get a replacement that *solves their original problem*.

I *trust* HTC. Samsung, I do not.

When paying this much money for a phone, if it doesn't perform the way it's supposed to, that trust is a valuable thing to have for the company who makes the phone.

Thanks! Very valuable info! I've certainly learned a lot from you guys/girls!
[HTC Inspire 4G] leemoss84:
i like the infuse because of the screen size but have no clue why anyone would buy one. the htc holiday will be out sometime in the near future and it trumps the infuse in everyway possible. the inspire will hold me over til then.

+1 and its going to have LTE baked right in, as its one of ATT's launch devices for LTE. Can't wait till my upgrade comes in Dec, hello Holiday for the holidays! Lmao
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texasez:
I am on a stock wifi xoom and bought a motorola camera connection kit. I put a several thumb drives in the cord and cannot seem to find the thumb drive using astro viewer. Where do the files show up? I have look in all the directories but I cannot find anything that looks like the files on the thumb drive.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiwengang:
For now, to use thumb drive, you need to be rooted on the xoom also you need to manually mount it into a folder.

But if you are on Tiamat's kernel, you can find it at /usbOTG
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texasez:
I was under the impression that on 3.1 it would work.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiyehhu:
yup. i was given the same impression too. thought with 3.1 i can just plug the usb and it will automatically detects the usb.
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
Alright guys I tried to search for this but basically I couldnt find the answer,

Anyway I might be buying an orange uk HTC mozart from *bay, and then I'll be getting it unlocked via IMEI code also from *bay.

My question is how will I go about de-branding it i.e. taking everything "orange" away from it and also how will I make sure the phone is up to date i.e. which rom will i have to flash?

Sorry for the noob-ness its just I'm coming from android so all this wp7 malarky is new to me!

Thanks!!
[7 Mozart General] carmello1911:
try to read some threads before posting new ones..I am sure you will answer all your questions that way.
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
Sorry to say I cant find anything that answers my question would appreciate if you could help me out.

I'm confused as to whether the mozart will ge the NoDo update on a non-orange carrier?

Thanks
[7 Mozart General] metalgearslug:
To be honest you won't see much orange stuff on it! You can uninstall all the programs and after that its just the start up screen (which you'll rarely see as who turns off their phone) and I think one of the colours is called orange uk! But the above guy is right there are millions of posts on here about debranding your phone, I did it and went back to the original rom as the european rom doesnt seem to have english uk, only english american...
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
Thanks for the tips, but im unsure as to what you mean by the original rom?

Basically i dont know what version it will be until it arrives, but i want to make sure I can unlock it, debrand it and keep it up to date whilst being on t-mobile (which happen to share a 2G network with orange lol)
[7 Mozart General] carmello1911:
my advice is: get your hands to the phone first, buy an unlock code through some of the several sites providing it if the phone is locked to orange or another network. then pop your sim in, enter the unlock code you purchased and uninstall any orange apps if there are any installed on the phone.. plug your phone to zune and update it to pre-nodo, no-do depends on what version currently is. remember that you have to un-plug and plug again your phone to the pc for each update.. hope that helped..
[7 Mozart General] WallCrusher:
I did the same thing, bought a Mozart from Ebay, Unlocked by buying a code from the internet and then debranded the phone by downgrading it and letting it update through Zune.
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
Still looking at getting one of these, but just reading issues about responsiveness on the latest roms i.e. screen response etc.

Is it an issue i should worry about?
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
BUMP

My mozart is coming tomorrow on Orange UK, and I will need to use it on t-mobile UK.

Please, please oh pretty please will someone help me unlock and debrand it?

Thanks
[7 Mozart General] monkeybutler1:
I bought a Mozart locked to Orange last week to use with an O2 sim card. All you need to do is get an unlock code using the IMEI no. (I used Unlocking.com, cost about £15), then get your phone on a wifi network and dwnload the HTC settings app from Marketplace, which will automatically configure your phone for web/MMS/texts etc. Then just delete the Orange apps by long pressing on them in the app list and assign the correct voicemail number.

Job done! Other than an Orange logo on start up, you won't know any different.
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
Got my mozart Yay!

HOWEVER

What the hell is with the banding?!?!?! Whenever the screen is any other color than black, there's banding!?!?
[7 Mozart General] monkeybutler1:
Banding? Oh dear - I think you might have a duff screen :(
[7 Mozart General] tom619:
No I think this is the issue

Oh, right. Turns out I have that too, but hadn't noticed until now! Supposedly it'll be fixed in Mango, and it's no big deal so I can wait until then.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeter:
I am new to nexus s.

I have been reading that there two types of screens available for the nexus s.

By the serial number or model number, can I be able to tell which one is on my nexus s?

Which screen model is the better one?

Thanks

Heeter
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamj1:
There are two yes.

S-LCD and AMOLED.

S-LCD is the most common, found on all the HTC Devices and so on. AMOLED uses some fancy technology and makes colours more vibrant and blacks black, not a tinted grey. I think the general consensus is that AMOLED is better. I'm not one to ask though, as I've only used S-LCD.

One thing, AMOLED versions are more expensive.

[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] craby1925:
Why does it want root access though?
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] BrandoKC:
It doesn't...are you referring to the fact that you have to allow installation of applications from unknown sources? That is totally different from root access.
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] craby1925:
No, my super user said fedes music app wants root access. Its in the su log too. Its a root thing,definatly
[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] I Am Marino:

Hi all,

Anyone playing Pocket Legends on the SGS2? It randomly crashes on me, sometimes 3 times in 5 minutes, sometimes once an hour, just wondering if anyone else has the same issue?

I have background data and auto sync turned off when I play.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] PoTi_96:
I've never played it but try it when background data is turned on
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Ohkuni:
Thanks for the reply. Yeah I originally started with everything on, I've been trying to disable apps one by one to see if it's affecting it but it always seems to randomly crash. I might try changing some in game settings and see how that goes.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] UnitSHIFT3R:
Hey,

I've been having the same problem, thought it might just be me. Sometimes it works for ages without any problems. Other times it can crash within 5 minutes.

Stock galaxy s2, using launcher pro. Not rooted.......yet! :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nightranger73:
Is it getting hot? Using OC and 3D games sometimes I had random reboots so I made a profile to lower the CPU freq down to 800 MHz when temp getting over 42°C
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Ohkuni:
No I don't really feel it getting hot, although I do have a TPU case so maybe I can't feel it.

I haven't had a crash since setting the battery savings slider to the right, but it also makes the game very choppy. Seems like a common issue with SGS2's so hopefully they fix it soon.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aliander:
Hi there!

Expierenced the same yesterday.

Game runs pretty fine, but phone's getting pretty hot (near the cam lense). Usually this doesn't happen - well, not that hot ;)

Didn't actually meassured temperature or anything 'til now...

2 Suggestions:

1. MALI (IIRC) Chip -> Chainfire3D worth a try?

2. Modem: Possibly Pocket Legends gets hick-ups, when data connection's getting lost (like 3G->H+ switch or something). Anyone tried playing through WLAN?

bye

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Draak22:
Same here, crashes after playing for like 5 minutes. When I check the battery temp, it's around 35°C so that shouldn't be the problem.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sohanlon07:
Send a dev tyrol the pocket legends team some logs and he dates org looks like the task manager is killing the game for some reason. He can't work out why.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aliander:
Posted this issue on PocketLegends FB page and invited them to join the discussion here - well, this is about 2-3 weeks ago. Sadly they didn't join, as far as I see... ;)

Anyone found a solution for that yet?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] volapyk:
Same problem here. The game freezes and phone gets hot.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Aviserin:
Hello,

I played more than 1h without any lag/freeze/crash

Just disabled sound, music, high quality options and changed battery saver to 50%.

Here is my config for Pocket Legends:

imageshack.us/f/850/options1.jpg

So please check it on your Samsung galaxy s2 and reply if this works.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kallyoughurt:
Hello! I've been lurking for a while now, in hopes that someone would figure it out. The battery saving-settings worked for a while, but then I experienced freezing again.

After reading a thread in the official PL forums i tried this:

I downloaded the winamp music player app and made it my default player.

(i did this because the only logs they've recieved that contained a crash, were sound related "libsoundpool.so")

After doing that, I have played two runs through all Forest Haven levels without the game freezing!

One run without sound, and one run with sound.

Both runs with high quality, and all that. No battery saving settings.

Maybe it'll start freezing again in a while. But give it a try if you want.

(newbie, so I can't post outside links, but the thread I'm referring to is in "Technical Issues and Bugs" section, titled "sound effects occur despite being turned off", and the answer came from Otukura)

Edit: Nope, froze again. Once in Forest Haven, and about 4 times when fighting keeper...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AllWin:
Guys who are using Lite'ning 1.5 ROM, can you try to:

Clear memory in (stock) Task Manager

Launch (stock) Music app and leave it open in background

Play Pocket Legends

Maybe it's just coincidence, but i was able to play PL for about 3 hours without a single freeze. On stock and Villain ROMs it just kept crashing every few minutes. Will keep testing..

*Most settings in game left at default values (high quality, FX/music - on).

EDIT: So, i've played another ~3 hours and no problems so far. Tried to run game without starting Music player and game froze in 10-15 mins.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT2: ~11 hours of gaming wihout crash. Tried few other ROMs, but PL just kept crashing. Now i'm on Lite'ning 1,5 again and game works.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] H-KaN:
Nothing new so far...I hope they will solve this problem soon...the only thing I wonder is that it only crashes when I do quests...Of crouse I didnt do everything in the game yet...but whenever I do a quest it mostly crashes...and when I just hang out nothing happens...I hope they will fix this...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AllWin:
Lite'ning 1,5 ROM + music app runing in the background does the job, no single freeze. Confirmed by two other guys.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DimICE:
Any news? Many games have randomly crashes for me.. Only when sound enabled in game..
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AllWin:
No news, still the same. Today i tried latest unofficial Gingerbread leak (2.3.4) and games still freezing. Sad. Now all hopes on Hacksung team. In the mean time you can try already mentioned Lite'ning ROM with music app running in the background.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] davis2503:
Dont crash on my galaxy, droid version 2.3.4!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AllWin:
I assume you're using leaked KG1 ROM right? How long you were playing? I managed to get only one "Krush the Keeper" run, on second game just froze. Have you made any customizations to this ROM?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] volapyk:
Still the same for me. Crashes very often. I can rarely play 15 min without crashes/freezing.

I'm on the latest official firmware from 3 denmark (not rooted).

I.ve tried all tips I've seen online. Except those that require root. Nothing helps. I'm starting to wonder if it's up to Samsung to fix this or the game devs. Damn frustrating as this is one of the only games I play.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AllWin:
Try flashing Lite'ning 1,5 ;) It's very easy, really. Earlier i was thinking that this is a sound driver related issue, but i tried CyanogenMod7 (nightly) and this happened too. I've submitted logs to TeamHacksung devs and Atinm said this could be because of media codecs that they are working on, so probably you'll have to root your phone anyway. Sooner or later :)

Also i keep trying all latest Samsung ROMs and after each try i blame them more and more. It's shame to release high-end phone which can't handle a simple games. After so many updates STILL nothing...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] volapyk:
I am rooted now and I can confirm that it happens on DevNull (close to AOSP) by adamg + KG3 and KG6 by Samsung as well.

Besides rooting + running is hardly an acceptable fix. More like a last resort. I haven't tried Litening rom, it's not really my kind of rom.

Its been about 2 months so I think I might drop Pocket Legends and buy Order & Chaos instead.

Edit: More info on bug here:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] xgrind:
I tried playing Poweramp then play Star Legends. So far no freeze but Poweramp hanged up.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] volapyk:
With Litening Rom 6.x I can play the game with VERY few crashes on SGS2. I'm playing the game every day and it has only crashed 3-4 times in more than 3 weeks since using Litening Rom 6. I don't need to keep the music player running or anything. The game rarely crashes.

With any other rom I've tried (including AOSP 2.3.5 and other Samsung KH3 roms like Revolution) the game crashes several times per hour. I've tested this on several roms (Full wipe + no Market apps installed except PL). As soon as I move to another rom the crashes are back.

As mentioned the crashes happen because of this AOSP bug: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17623#makechanges

My question is, why does the game crash far less on Litening Rom 6.x than other KH3 roms? They are all based on the same Samsung firmware. So what's different about Litening Rom?

For those of you who are having issues with the stock keyboard and it's lag and lack of arrows, have I found a deal for you!

Head to the market and download "Hacker's Keyboard".

Its free and adds a much quicker experience, a dedicated number row, and arrow keys. It does have a bit of a smaller layout to fit all the new keys, but it is leaps and bounds above the stock.

If anyone else has any other alternatives too, i'd love to check them out, this is just what ive found.

If you think about it, a keyboard program needs to watch which keys the user presses and needs to relay that to the operating system.
