And people wonder why soo Many people hate Apple. Ok lets make a triangular phone so we don't get sued or maybe a octagon?

To be fair, Apple did copyright designs. So you may not like Apple, but if this were any other company people probably wouldn't care.

ok so maybe samsung will have to pay up to everybody who ever made a cell phone, now. seriously. its a money thing.

So probably Samsung sales are going to stop in the US, because of USA-smartass patents. Software patents, seriously?

So what it's not like Apple is capable of making anything on their own. They're at the mercy of Samsung, LG, ect to make their junk for them. 5 years from now Apple will be a broken company like they were in the 90's.
[General Topics] djordje_rosic:
I know =/ its just frustrating that they're allowed to do this kind of crap, i know corporate law and suing one another go hand in hand, but i mean come on linux and various other company's hold many patents over apple, which they pay to use (and some which they even tried to sue other companies over, even though they didnt even invent the item for which they were suing), but regardless its just stupid that they throw their power around so easily and aren't met with much resistance........sad days :(
[General Topics] Blagus:
What's saving them is Steve Jobs. He's one of the last people who really knows how to advertise a product, and "make people believe that they need and can't live without his product".

Most of the other companies employ young and inexperienced people, that's why their sales fail.

When Jobs leave Apple, it'll be just like any other company, coming towards customers instead of making customers come towards them.

That's the idea that Jobs found out in 70s, 80s... there's a movie about Jobs, Gates, Wozniak, and Ballmer, I can't remember its name, which clearly shows their success.

So, my screen completely Effed up on me about 2 weeks ago, and Carphone Warehouse wanted me to pay £170 to get it repaired, because apparently if your screen just randomly breaks it isn't on the warranty. I don't have £170. My questions are:

1. Cheapest/Most Reliable/All-round best place to buy replacement screen?

2. Is it hard to replace the screen? (I've tore stuff down before, so i have a little experience, DS's and stuff like that)

3. When i get the phone back, i'm gonna factory reset it,i was gonna post this in a separate thread in android general but i thought i may as well not clutter the forum up and ask it here. So, when i factory reset it, does it take android back down to the original Firmware version? I want to root it but i'm really struggling with the downgrade and such.

Thanks for any answers in advance.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Lovetz:
read specification for our processor and you'll see that it already overclocked at the factory.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hallowen:
i've heard from one of my friend that the processor was factory overclocked.but a custom rom will improve the performance.i tried using villain rom .it was having too much of bugs..i shifted back to kp8....its really good.....no bugs nothing.......
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] villemann:
Try using KPE, less buggy tnah KP8.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] roninxt:
I read somewhere that the processor of sga is the turbo version of the 600mhz variant. Contrary to many assumptions it is not factory overclocked. The post is somewhere in the sga thread.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] downloadonlyaccount:
The processor runs at 800 MHz, 600 is the speed of the non-turbo version.

hey do you have problems like copying file from computer to sd card?

hey guys, im a having serious headache here.

few days ago i changed my sd card from 2GB to 4GB and i flashed my phone to the lastest firmware (S5830XXKPE) and rooted it.

i connected my phone to the computer via usb to copy songs and some files into my sd card. however it hangs and become unresponsive while transfering files into sd card. and so i cant copy files from computer into my sd card! well, i did try by using micro sd card reader, the copy process goes smoothly BUT when i put in the sd card back to my phone, it shows nothing in it!! as if i dint copy anything!!

HELPPPPPPP !! is it the SD card problem or the firmware problem ?? i guess it is not the firmware problem since i have been browsing through so many threads from various forum and couldnt find anything related about this. any ideas about this problem ???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ingbrzy:

What other ROMS and themes are compatible with the S5830?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] letsurock:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] princenoob:
I hope you can work with dee000000 who is working on a cyanogenmod port. At first it is not stable but as development goes further until it becomes stable it will be a nice custom rom. Well this is just an idea :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] bls2633:
I am having a problem with my screen staying on long enough to unlock it. It also happens when in a call and I need to push a number. When I push power to unlock the screen, it only stays on for a fraction of a second then goes out. The bottom row of buttons stays light and will vibrate if i push them but nothing happens. It will do this over and over until finally it lets me unlock the phone. Also when I am on a call and remove the phone from my ear the screen does the same exact thing. Stays on only for a fraction of a second and so on........... This is my third G2X and my first one did this as well. I don't use any kind of lock screen app such as widget locker and when I do try it, it still does the same thing. Anyone have any Ideas???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Are you using SetCPU? I had a similar issue when I set my "screen off profile" in SetCPU to 216 max and 216 min with a priority of 100. I changed it to 312 max 216 min. Now no issues. :)

Battery seems about the same.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bls2633:
I do, and I use the same profile you mentioned. I am going to switch it now and try that. Thanks for your quick help!!

(Edit) Yes, that seems to be the culprit. I froze SetCPU for now and problem solved. Now I will change the settings to 312-216. Thanks Again

[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
OK the problem with the old Desire with most live wallpapers, even the better ones, was they still made the home-screens transitions laggy and chewed through battery power. Most live wallpapers lasted only a day until the novelty wore off when my battery went flat 6 hours early.

I was wondering if the improved Andreno GPU in the Desire S could handle these a little better so I started looking around for a test piece and found this one....

https://market.android.com/details?id=fishnoodle.clouds_free&feature=search_result

This is the free version, a donate version is available which gives more options, but just check out how smooth this runs! Going to run it for a few days to get a good idea of battery impact, but there is zero lag between home-screen transitions and the cloud animation. Will report back when I've run it for a bit.

Recommend using it with the 'Xperiansed Arc' skin. It has a nice, plain and translucent clock which compliments the live wallpaper. Credit for the Skin goes to sopL87, who has done the original post where you can download this, and many more skins here...

I tried using the tutorial here to enable tethering: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11493471&postcount=193

but when I connect my computer to the network it says limited connectivity and I can't access any webpages.

Also, I tried using the CWM recovery for the atrix found here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1019143

I followed the steps and after I clicked Recovery Mode my phone rebooted. Do I have to press the volume keys when its rebooting or should it go to recovery mode automatically? I tried holding the volume keys when rebooting separately (not after clicking recovery mode) and the phone got stuck on "starting fastboot" or "staring RSD", and I had to take out the battery each time to get it to reboot normally. What am I missing?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinoy:
This is from the CWM post:

UPDATED 2011-0408-1105 GMT +8

small change for recovery enter method, you can now enter recovery everytime you plug your ac charger when you phone is off. and you can change modes between recovery mode or poweroff charge mode inside the app

Notice the highlighted parts... your phone has to be plugged into a wall charger for it to go into recovery mode... no need to push any buttons.. once you get into the app and launch recovery mode, it will reboot, and as long as you're plugged into a wall charger, it will boot into recovery mode...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsingh2011:
Thanks. I guess it matters whether its a wall charger or charging from the computer because the wall charger worked and when it was charging from the computer it didn't. So the first thing I did was click backup. Now if something goes wrong and I want to restore, how can I get to recovery mode? I would have to click the app but if I couldn't boot up into my phone, then shouldn't there be another way to get to it?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinoy:
So, it's kind of a fail safe if you want to call it that.....

If you've already installed the recovery mode, if it's on a wall charger, it will boot into recovery mode automatically. I've had to unplug my car charger after finding out that when I rebooted it in the cardock, it was going into recovery mode...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
For tethering.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsingh2011:
So when I install a rom am I installing a backup from someone else's phone? And I just restore different backups to switch between roms? I wish rom manager worked with the atrix, it would have made this process a lot easier...

I just realized something. Since I don't have a sd card the backup saved to my internal storage... that can be erased if install another rom right? So I should wait until I get an sd card before installing another rom so I can put my backup on that, right?

As for tethering, that site doesn't say anything about the atrix. I've read about people who were caught tethering by att without a tethering plan and lost their unlimited data plan. Using the APN method that won't happen, but that methods not working for me. So if I try using barnacle tether could att change my plan or is that safe?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinoy:
These are not actual ROMS, these are more like themes.. and some of the themes, which are being called P-ROMs include hacks/mods (HDMI mirroring, Webtop, APN..etc.)

You are not installing someones backup, as most of the stuff that are being changed are in the framework-res.apk and services.jar files, those do not contain personal info, just icons and functions...

Best way to install P-ROMs/Themes... make a backup of your stock setup, install the theme/p-rom you want.. if it doesn't go good or you want to switch, I would recommend restoring back to your stock, then applying the new theme/p-rom...

I've used androids wi-fi tethering with no problems..alot of phones are not listed, but it works for them.. even though I still have my unlimited data plan, I just don't go nuts with it and run up 20GB+ a month for ATT to start looking at my plan...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiredPirate:
Wifi tether is waaay safer than modifying your carrier given apn imo.

For storing backup w/o ext, use dropbox. (link in my signature) dropbox sync is even built into TiBU. ;)

Hello everyone. I need some help on choosing a mobile phone.

Im using HTC Tattoo atm (my first smartphone), now my needs from phone have changed, and I got some specific needs, which are hard to satisfy.

Things I need:

1. Dual Sim! I want to be able to use two sim cards at the same time.

2. Android OS (as far as it is atleast 2.1 its OK w/e it is)

3. Have a good processor - I want atleast 800Mhz processor so phone can keep up with what I do.

4. Multitouch screen and keyboard - I write alot of sms, so keyboard is required.

5. Camera should have auto focus, so I can make pictures of text (for later use in PC).

6. Must have graphic controller, so I can watch nice vids & play some games (when gotta wait for something).

So far I found only 2 phones which are OK for me, but I have no idea which is better.

Anyone who knows about chipsets, processors etc - which of these two to take, and why ?

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=2546&id2=2551

HTC is newer with newer chipsets & probably some features, but Motorolla have faster processor...

This is something I've just noticed in the past few days but it's driving me crazy. When I try to use an exclamation point on the hard keyboard, it only gives me the period. Then, when I hit backspace to delete that, it deletes my entire message. It's like my phone knows I hit the function button, but it isn't registering the exclamation point. I'm rooted, using SRF 1.1.1. Not sure why it's doing this, but I don't think it's ROM specific. Please help!

UPDATE: Turns out the SwiftKey Beta was the culprit. Changed my keyboard to anything other than Swiftkey, and my hardware keyboard worked as it should.

Its been said there is a MANGO BETA version to download for free... out there. But where exactly is the download file so i can download it on my htc hd7 ? If however i new how to install it though.

Someone said you need to private someone for the file and another said you msut register for it. How could so when the actual thing is free to download it aniways ? WP7 dont force anyone to register or pvt someone for the mango beta version file aniways.

Mamon

p.s heres the download file for MANGO BETA for free you only get some things available. Not everything within the 500 features just yet. But here are just some what to expect. But works. Only for WP7 phones.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...64-ab15-40e1-bc38-713a95a56a05&displaylang=en

Who ever says to you to pvt me for the file or to register here before you download it... Is quite suspisous because like i said wp7 will never make you prvt someone for the download file and secondly you do not register just to download the file. Just so long you own a Windows phone 7 and download it for your phone.

Bingo
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] sandrax2020:
How do you mean we see apps taking advantage of the new SDK? what does that stands for ?

not just the android, all the iphone apps too. that's great!!
