Hi and welcome.

You will see this answer loads "read the forums"

I have lots of experence with android phones. And I found the defy very different to the others in the way you flash.

I use cm7 myself and its very good for daily use. There are a few YouTube videos you can watching showing the process.

so read and watch as much as you can wait a week if you still feel you wanna do it, read some more and go for it.

Is the software and hardware warranty different? My i9003's LCD is some what ripping off of its foundation and i want it fixed by the service center.. Before i submit it to the sevice center, do i have to revert back to the original FW or is it ok because my problem is just the hardware not software.. Thanks.

Edit: will they check my firmware if my problem is only the LCD which is ripping off its foundation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anfearg:
It is always safer to flash back to a stock rom just to save any trouble with the service centre. I know some here look for any reason to void a warranty on a handset.

So if it were me I would flash back to stock and remove root and any other tweaks.

A quick off-topic question, I purchased a brand new SGS from Ebay, if it breaks, can I send it to a SAMsung service centre for a free repair (after flashing stock firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anfearg:
It depends on if your handset is outside of the original warranty period. But the only way to be sure is to bring it to a repair centre and they can tell you straight away.

Did you buy it second hand?

Hello,

i bought my trophy 7 in december, so i needed to make a live id with USA as country, because at that time Marketplace was not working in Belgium...

Now.. months later, apps are getting released from belgium, so you only can install them if you registered your phone with belgian live id

The only way to change my ID, is to reset the whole phone... so i lose all my contacts, messages etc...

Is there a way to change something in the registry?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colossus_r:
There is no way to change that first windows live account. You must reset your phone.Period

But the only thing that you cant backup are the text messages...All other PIM data are stored in the cloud...

And if you reset you will have a locked phone again.

http://phandroid.com/2011/07/06/htc-evo-3d-vs-htc-evo-4g-2d-camera-comparison-forum-talk/

Mainly posted this for all the comments I read stating...I hate the evo 3d I wish it was the same phone just without the 3d and with the same camera as the evo because 8 is 3 more higher giggerpixels than 5...

point of the thread is...MEGAPIXELS ARE NOT A TRUE INDICATION OF WHAT IS "BETTER". same goes for quadrant scores...anyway thanks for reading, comment beeeeeeeeeeeeeeelow
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
While I agree that megapixels do not matter so much when it comes to picture quality I have to say my E4G took much better pictures than what he has there. It can't compete with my Canon T1i, but, as someone mentions in the comments there, the stock ROM was made to use the Evo's camera and takes much better pictures than anything I've seen CM7 take. Honestly I was impressed with the Evo 4Gs camera when it was used with proper lighting.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
My 3d takes much better pics then my 4g. The colors and clarity have been much better for me on the 3d.

I do not understand why anyone has complained about the camera. The only complaint I have is I wish there was no delay when taking a picture and I would truly be happy. This of course is not a complaint just towards the 3d but seems to be the norm for all camera phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] iitreatedii:
I wasn't saying the evos camera was bad, just not that it was far superior to the 3vo bc it has 3 more megapixels
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
I posted this link in another thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] titans10:
If you go to settings when in the stock camera app go to 'review duration' and select 'no review' and off and the delay is gone. Makes taking pics real snappy.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
Is it just me or did a lot of the 8mp pics look much better, more life-like and realistic. Just the first picture looked better with the 5mp to me. Who knows though...I'm old and probably need glasses.
[HTC EVO 3D] beyond882001:
Thank for the link bro, just watch on how you use idiots.... People get offended easily and wont respect your opinion.... i love my camera, lol look at my M&Ms thread
[HTC EVO 3D] Zoidpilot:
those M&Ms look awesome BTW...

Although I do love my phone very much, I think fanaticism is to blame... Fanatics are the guys who get mad at any little negative comment or personal opinion that does not agree with their logic. i.e.- the whole camera thing ii treated ii is mentioning... I swear it's like people use "Text search" on the page and look for threads that say IMO, or I THINK... It's kinda pathetic. A valid point I say OP.

IMO I think either camera can take amazing pictures depending on the circumstances. I own both phones and I can tell you, some pics look like crap, some look awesome. Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks.
[HTC EVO 3D] ydoucare:
Megapixels don't matter, sensor quality does. The Evo 3D sensor is a noisy mess, as are most small phone-friendly sensors, but the Evo 3D is just average at best.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Please. Massive rationalization. (Yeah, I know...from an idiot, lol).

You can only make judgements by using your own phone, your own eyes, vs other phones. Not shots via other cameras via other links/sites/unknown settings.

I've done so many comparisons...hundreds (E3D vs 4G; E3d vs SGS2; E3d vs other E3D's!....yeah camera quality was important to me this round!... that I'm really over this

But:

The average (all lighting) 2D pics in the Evo 3D are:

1. In the 2011 smartphone arena are p o o r! It's a great device but this is a fact.

.2.Are substandard vs the 4G (although settings workarounds can bring it close). Go to a sprint store. Fairly compare in average lighting.

3. Are flat out dull compared to the 8mp Sensation...which is a slight upgrade to 4G.

4. Vs SGS2, IPhone or Sony Arc? Don't need to go there!...although I think this is gonna change with HTC devices from here on out.

If you take your phone and compare to the other devices in various conditions I think you'll agree.

Still really like the E3D tho....thing smokes! Don't really know what updates/rooting will do but we'll see.
[HTC EVO 3D] iitreatedii:
the bottom line for me is camera-wise, i want a phone that takes clear pictures that i can semi-blow up and keep "good" quality. I don't care how good they actually are, so long as i can see them and no areas are blotchy...but once again let me see to everyone, this had nothing to do with the quality of the evo 3d's camera. It has to do with the fact that people simply are assuming 8mp>5mp...not true. that is the point of my post, not that the evo 3d has a great or better than XXX's camera. wrong idea here...
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
Was trying to find a post somewhat related to the camera quality on the E3D (takes a while to do so on said phone) without making a new post. Here are a few pics I have taken with my phone.

Enjoy.

Edit: Seems that my phone didn't upload the same picture size for each photo even though they were all taken the same way... :rolleyes:

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marlboro123:
my TAB bricked after a failed firmware upgrade via Kies... :eek:

i can't start my TAB as the screen stucked at the "phone --!-- computer" screen

i have tried resetting Galaxy Tab with Hardware Keys

Result : tab started and stucked at screen "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE" instead of going to downloading screen

i then read a post says wait until the TAB discharged

Result : tried discharging for 2 day and restart... when connect to wall plug, it shows "phone --!-- computer" screen again !!

before my next attempt on reviving my TAB via Odin, my TAB is not charging anymore (can't switch on)...

my TAB's latest statuses/symptoms are :

- once wall plug charge, a "phone --!-- computer" screen appear on-and-off ("on" for 8 seconds then "blank" for 16 seconds, keeps repeating)

- whole screen gone "blank" once unplugged (within the 8 seconds time of "on" menitioned above)

- tried charging for hourssss, still no good

- hardware reset While wall plug is on, "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE" appear and gone in split second

i have searched through the net and forums for the past 2 days but can't find any similar case, could it be hardware (battery) problem ?

as i am working overseas and all my warranty stuffs are back home, DIEEEEE...

appreciate if anyone can help or give any advise...

Hey Marlboro,

Via kies you should try "emergency firmware" (not sure if it the right name though) or you can check xda portal for a new software made for soft bricking from Adamoutlet.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
Hi Guys.

What I was thinking is blooming genius, but I need an Android and electricial engineer to look over it to se if the theory is sound.

What I want to ask is could android support a JBOD array through it's Microsd (theorectically)?

My plan is basically to get a PhotoFast GM-5500 (see below) and use it's array and controllers as a base remove the casing and USB port and then either:

1 - Create a microsd interface so that it plugs into the current microsd sd slot

2 - solder it onto the micro USB pins to it's always connected.

Anyone interested in the practically of this, I was thinking of doing it to a Desire and then getting the back cover for a battery extender (see below) to create the space to house the array.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Freon35:
Mostly impossible because the OS, and the processor doesent know how to understand memory larger then 32Gb.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
I've seen that the Samsung Galaxy Tab comes in a 64GB flavor with additional 32gb MicroSD slot. Is it just honeycomb that can support it or are you saying its a physical limitation imposed by the SOC?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Freon35:
In windows, or on Linux - what limites the HW expansions?

If you have a HD movie like 6Gb and you want it to be on a FAT16 partition it's imposlible. So if you have an 64Gb of RAM on a PC do you use it all??

It's about 0 and 1 :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
I'm not sure what point you are trying to make...

Firstly, I'm talking about Android as this is the Android hacking forum.

Secondly I never mentioned HD files, this is irrelavent to my quesiton.

Thirdly, I didn't talk about file systems, however I will now, I was thinking 90% FAT32 ( Easily supported) and the rest EXT3 for system and apps.

Fourthly, I never mentioned RAM, I'm on about Storage.

I've tried to find a tear down of a 64GB Galaxy tab to see if they are using an SSD or flash memory ( i know they're mostly the same).

The galaxy proves it's possible to store more, I'm just wondering how the devil they did it and can it be replicated on the cheap?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Freon35:
Ok, m8 how will you tell the mother board, and the processor to alocate that extra storage, and how to write partition on it? It's not the OS itself, it's the whole thing.

Dont you think that Android development didn't think of that? To lets say put a small SSHD (solid state hard disk) to Android performance with dual core processors, and stuff :)

If tou think of extra lagre OS - then take a PC and run a Linux distro or a Windows.

For that mater buy an new Azbox STB with Android on it :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
This is what i was wondering, if it's only honeycomb that's able to do it then updating will soon be possible .

If we say theoretically we have Honeycomb on it, and the cards are partitioned correctly ( using gParted before being installed in the phone).

I know it's not possible to start swapping major components out of the phone.

I'm thinking of an SD array as it's already got the firmware to address SD, an SSD would require some serious OS tweaks.

I think we're getting a bit off topic of my original question, which was would/could Android support JBoD array?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Freon35:
Ok - there is no difference is there an 64Gb, 160Gb of an external storage - is it an SD, or an SSD, or a floppy. The point is that OS+CPU+MB of any now available phone is able to understand addressing 0-es and 1-es to extra storage.

It's like with old PC mother boards with old BIOS-es, HDD then couldn't be reckognised if larger then 30Gb.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
So are you saying its possible?

Lets simplify it a bit, will android support a JBOD (Just a bunch of Disks) array?

Yes or no.

Forget the size of the storage, is really irrelavant to what I'm asking.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Freon35:
From simple to complicated.

Android OS - Yes (rewriten to match CPU and MB)

Android Hardware - NO

Android completly new level of development - Yes.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] amraving:
Bump.

Any ideas if this is possible?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a1981m:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getaceres:
I gess it depends on the rom but for every rom that I've tried (sense, miui, cm) it takes some time to do the rotation. I wish we could have even an animation like the iPhone has but so far the only application that I've seen responding immediatly to rotation and using an animation is the stock music app (Sense 2.1).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JagDave:
You could try spare parts, off the market.

But if you're willing to go to a Sense ROM, follow my Sig. Instant rotation.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drpsyko:
Agreed. So far the fastest rotation speed ive ever exeprienced is the stock rom, following by ginger ruu based rom (ARHD,LeeDroid, etc.)

As im also using HoneyMIUI 2.3, the slow rotation is still yet unoptimized. So wait for the update for now ;)

Is there an app or update or something to correct this ?

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asovse1:
Yes, I tend to rarely use flash and adjust my real-life background lighting and white balance to reduce that crap. I'm on CM7, but this problem persisted back with Blay0's 0.7, 0.8.4, and Stock 2.1 and 2.2, but that doesn't really matter.

The camera is great without the flash, the flash is only useful occasionally but then you experience shutter lag. I just use it for the flashlight :D
