Take it from someone that owns a Charge...has a Tbolt, and used a Bionic for an entire hour frontwards and back from gps, speed tests, gaming, HD video playback both 720 and 1080p...

Having owned pioneer elite, panasonic and fujitsu plasmas as well as Sony and Sammy and IPS panels whoever cannot see the glaring issues with respect to the screen door effect, dead color saturation and refresh issue/pixelation...you might need to have your eyes checked or???

Ignorance is truly bliss...

Pictures are lifeless.

Video quality is a touch above mediocre but suffers from the screen/pixelation which doesn't go away.

1080p looks unfocused and dull.

I'm not sure I could live with that.

Besides...the dual core cpu doesn't do squat for app loading nor any other function because the multi core support is currently meh.

Future proof with a crap-stain screen?

Nope.com
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
Remind me to Fedex you some lip balm.

Exactly what are you wanting to watch on these devices that absolutely needs the crispest picture? Are you streaming in porn? I'd find it hard the cup the neighbors while holding a phone in the left hand. Full length feature films (sounds good on this battery, bro)? With all those flatscreens you allegedly have, get a dock. I prefer not to watch 2 hour movies on a 4 and a quarter inch screen, I'm 28 and my eyes just don't like it, screen door or not. I really don't see why you have to get all up in arms. There's no phone on the market with faster 4g, if you find one, kindly point me to it. Unless the Prime comes out with some seriously KILLER radio tech, it's not going to compete in that department. Jury is also out on battery life.

You're practically calling dual core tech obsolete because the apps that require it are not out yet. This is mainly why I suggested lip balm, because you must seriously be breathing out of your mouth 24/7 to come out with something as outrageous as that for a basis of argument.

Come back you have something valid to say.

As far as the OP, you knew about the screen for months before 9/8 and chose to try it anyway, congratulations to you. It's fully within your contracted means to return the phone for a full refund. What's irritating, however, is your plea for attention via this thread. Well, it worked.

The Bionic seems like when you watch a hot girl and you realize everything she has (boob$, eyes, hair...) is cheap haha

It's like that one girl that looks AWESOME but when you see her as she came to planet earth you realize everything is cheap or fake, silicone all over the place

That's how I feel :) hahaha

I PROMISE everybody I went to Verizon at least once a month asking for the BIONIC, I waited since March

Yeah I think dual core might not be as important as I think

regarding to your comments, 99% of what you said makes no sense.

Nobody mentioned porn, I don't care about the neighbors, and I don't care about you

BUT

You have a good solid point and I'd give you that

Switching to Sprint just because they have dual core seems a little bit useless, especially since I will lose the 4G speed I have with Verizon
[Motorola Droid Bionic] galaxyuser88:
I love when people comment like this. :mad: .. Unfortunatly some of us do not have 4 g and a very fringe 3g-1x service (and being lied to about when we are getting 4g service), so sometimes going to an inferior carrier that has a solid connection as compared to an almost non existing Verizon connection is what we have to do. Roms are good they help with problems with phone, getting necessary updates that Verizon doesnt send (like verison of GB), but it does not help with increasing the signal that comes out of the towers. It would have been great if all the companys basically used the same type of band, so this way you can keep the phone but just change carriers. I love my Charge. Just hate the service.

So people need to take this into consideration before post stuff like this..

END RANT.....

Was considering this phone, but definitely am going to wait until the Nexus Prime now.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Semseddin:
I've replaced much more samoled+ displays than moto pentile "cheap" ones. Why don't "expensive" samoled+ last as long as "cheap" moto pentiles ? Why doesn't "cheap" pentile produce dead pixels while the "expensive" samoleds+ burn in and produce dead pixels by time ? Why doesn't "cheap" pentile is visible in sunlight and its digitizers are much more prone to scratches than the "expensive" samoled+ ?

One might like oversaturated colors with blueish layer on the whole screen and in addition to that he might even like some pinkish or reddish tints in one of the bottom sides of his screen, it is totally fine.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Superguy:
You sound like someone just insulted your best friend.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saltysteven:
id like to say;

well yea the screen isnt the best but like everyone knows its te trade for a decent battery and outside viewing .

soo i had stopped of at the verzion store today to check out the cases for my bionic and i had been looking at the other phones screens and then i looked at the bionic again and i saw alot more pixels.

a few hours later my eyes adjust to the screen and i really dont see them like i did at the store.

this post is to those who are on the fense about the screen-

i wasnt sure and the more i read the more confused i got about my OWN feelings on the screen and the phone itself. well i think this phone and screen is growing on me, after all its the best verizon has.

waiting a little longer for a little better phone (maybe) isnt for me.

the screen is nothing compared to the bionics performance
[Motorola Droid Bionic] topxshelfxtre:
Honestly, if the screen is that big of a deal how are u gonna handle the service cut you cant be that picky about a simple screen and be ok with tons of dropped calls!!!

[Motorola Droid Bionic] SigmunDroid:
I'm wanting to use a performance equipped device with multimedia capabilities to show me why "I" paid $300 on a smartphone. I want to watch/stream HD video on a device that implies (via its specs) that the output is vibrant, sharp and whose quality aptly exemplifies having the acronym "HD" in the title of its screen...

2nd, why do you sound so butthurt bro?

I gave my opinion based on my extensive experience and heightened senses which include having higher than 20/20 vision and being a certified videophile.

If you are too sensitive then it makes sense for you to seep out estrogen on such an emotionally irrational level. I wrote being in a state of serenity and tranquility. If you own the Bionic? Stop taking things personal just because your phone's screen looks like utter garbage for a phone debuting in the 2nd quarter of 2011...and it does.

Saying it isn't "that bad" is what an apologist apathetic towards reason would say because they lack subjective reasoning but have an inflated ego, correlating self worth with a product's perceive image...

Frankly, even my junky acer x223 tn panel looks much better in every sort of criteria a panel gets scrutinized for.

In case reading comprehension eludes you...

I gave my background owning different panels to show my lack of fanboi tastes in panels while establishing my know how in screen quality...having owned (means past tense) make sense?

You must be either very young or pretty brazenly ignorant for your blatant disregard and lack of experience when discussing on an internet forum...when (a) you don't understand what was said and (b) for not asking for clarification on what was said...

Speaking for now: (i.e; the present)

A dual core cpu is as useless as tits on a bull.

This comment does not state that it is absolute.

Common sense: the apps and subsequent software that launches in the future WILL have multicore support. Until then? Enjoy your "now" useless extra core. (useless means: of no use)

If I need lip balm?

You're going to need some diapers and a bib for your diarrea of the mouth prepubescent self.

This is a classic cry for help via such ****stain logic as,

"I chose the Bionic as my phone and putting it down soils my she-ra granny panties to such an extent that I must religiously defend it by weak sauce insults and pathetic attempts at character denigration via ad hominem attacks and petty one liners all because I can't allow another human being the right to post an informed observation on a rushed to market/half baked 73 pinto with 20inch spinners and a supercharged LS7 crammed under the hood mated to a 6 speed manual with gears 4,5 and 6 missing and a redline of 4500rpms."

Seriously man, get a woman and lrn2intercourse.

Then maybe you won't be so emotionally fragile and soft.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tornlogic:
SigmunDroid, who pissed in your cheerios, because I wanna kick their ass for making you so bitter and subsequently had you post that hostile rant of yours.

Jesus, if you don't like it get the F out.

In fact, go take your Charge and go harass their forum. Nobody wants to hear your **** here.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rafarataneneces:
I had the Samsung Galaxy S 4G (T-Mobile), LG G2X (T-Mobile), Motorola Droid Bionic (crap from Verizon), and now the HTC Thunderbolt (Verizon)

I am waiting anxiously the HTC VIGOR :)

So I am a fanatic of technology, but by any means, I am NOT picky.

I loved the screen in ALL my phones, except this one

Anyway, here in this thread I am saying bye bye to everyone.

Hope to see you in other forums, thank you my friends

Bye bye everyone, HTC Thunderbolt user, waiting for HTC Bionic

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1261514

Thanks everyone for all your tremendous help, especially to the guy that recommended me the VIGOR :)

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------

This comment made me want to stay in Verizon

I bought HTC Thunderbolt $260 (like new), cash

So next month, with HTC VIGOR, I could use my discount and hopefully buy a nice device with Dual Core and 1GB of RAM

Thanks for the advice, I tought about it, and yeah the Samsung Galaxy S II is not a "new device", is a device that was available in March in all the major except USA

So I would be buying an "old" device for the price of a new device.

SGII will not have 14000 kbps/s 4G LTE speeds such as Verizon, so I thought about it and the SG II is not perfect, let's say it will give me around 5000kbps/s

Anyway, maybe it's all for the best, and maybe in the next 45-60 days, I'll have a phone that has it all

1) Dual Core

2) 1 GB

3) 4G LTE speeds

4) Nice screen

I don't care about battery life too much I have charger in my windshield

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
I have been using Reboot Control Widget ever since my first Android phone. It has been a great tool until I got the G2X. On the G2X the widget gets root permissions, but nothing works.

So I switched to QuickBoot. QuickBoot can turn the phone off and reboot it, but it cannot boot into recovery. When I select this option the phone reboots normally back into the Android system.

Does anyone know of an app or widget that can reboot into physical recovery that we installed with NVFlash? Not a big pain to turn off phone, press volume down and power; but a handy tool to have.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
I've had that problem too with quick boot so I've used Root Booter from speed software, but costs money.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
I don't mind paying for an app if it does what I want it to do. Can Root Booter boot into the CWM recovery that we installed using NVFlash? If so, worth a buck or two. I paid for Reboot Control Widget way back when but now it doesn't work on the G2X at all. :mad:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Root Booter doesn't work on Gingerbread either. I just tried it and it just does a normal reboot instead of booting into recovery. I guess it is not possible to do on this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I wonder how the CM team implements this. With cm7 if you long press the power button, one of the options is to reboot into recovery and it boots into the nvflashed version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdotfitz:
I was able to get my gps working real good after flashing to stock gingerbread 2.3.4. I am rooted but did not feel like going through all of the steps for flashing any roms so I searched and searched and finally was able to fix it.

This is simple for those with clockworkmod but for those like me that can not use it this was successful for me. Also, I cannot take credit for any of this I am just providing a simple step by step for those who want it, since none of this fix or even the grouping of files was done by me.

follow this link and dl GPS_Fix_Dlev4.2.zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1146176&page=154

I believe that with clockwork you can simply flash it but I cannot use cwm so I can not say for sure.

I was unable to rename it to update.zip and install it so i manually moved the files to my phone using root explorer.

first i replaced the gps.conf with H3llstorm's

so copy and paste the gps.conf in the /system/etc folder to your /system/etc folder on your phone.

Than I copy and pasted the vendor folder found in /system to my /system folder...../system/vendor did not exist.

After that I rebooted and went from 88 seconds to lock on 3-6 sats, but unable to maintain a lock while driving, to 9 seconds to lock and maintain a lock on 7-9 sats. I tested it on a 30 min drive through local and highway roads and it was constantly locked on. I stopped it at the end restarted nav, relocked quickly and came home with it working smoothly, I also purposely veered off course to see how it would react and it quickly re-routed.

I think the big change is the gps.conf, that h3llstorm made, good looks, and am not really sure if the vendor folder does anything but it worked so i recommend trying it anyway. The 88 seconds i was referring to was also with the gps.conf file found at

http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/guide-gps-quickest-fix-solution.2022/

It did not seem to do anything for me. This is not really a question but I am relatively new here so I cannot post a thread in the development section. I hope this helps anyone that does not want to flash anything more than stock gb.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kralco626:
I like the idea... the question is do we have to have 2.3.4 stock? Or will it still work with a 2.3.3 modded rom?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuloplori:
He took the fix from Dlev 4.2 which is a modded (reoriented) rom. If u ask if it's for stock cappy based roms only, I would say it's not. Stock roms come withOUT any gps aid and so it's hit or miss thing, while in modded roms the chefs usually have a fix backed in their roms. I'm guessing that's y he pointed out that the fix is recommended for those who are on stock, but no matter what rom your on feel free to experiment.

Sent from a captivated SensatioN
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdotfitz:
Yea he`s right i just said stock because i assumed the rom would have it preloaded, from what ppl have told me its worked with every version of gb regardless of rom or not. Also i was alluding to the fact that i with stock cant use cwm.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SunTzuTech:
Just got a Color Nook, and did a manual upgrade to 1.3.

Followed the SD install of cyanogenmod and that went pretty well too.

Problem started when I tried to put gapps on the uSD device, and

I have spent hours reading the forums and searching, and reflashing

the uSD and nothing I do seems to make this nook boot off the uSD

device.

Thoughts. I could swear I had seen something prior to the SD install

where I could pick, but all the ways I've seen are not getting me to

recover from stock.

Sounds like he reformatted his sd card and started over at the beginning.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SunTzuTech:
That and stopped using XP for updating the SD. Consistently, Win7 is able to see the proper SD partitions. Only once in a while, when I pop the SD back into my XP laptop with SD reader does it see "boot" partition. It usually picks up one of the other ones, which makes updating rather difficult.

I just left my Captivate and in the Infuse and now I am trying to figure out what ROM I would like to try out. After a week of having this phone just not liking being back to stock.

On my Captivate I only ran two roms. I ran DG and CyanogenMod 7. I am not seeing offical roms by these two for the Infuse. I am only seeing unoffical CM7 Roms. I am not sure about using a unofficial one.

I am looking a good rom that has the support like CM7 has. That is also easy to install and easy to update.

Thanks for any help on this
[Samsung Infuse 4G] beatblaster:
The CM7 port for the Infuse is a good one. Bluetooth is only half working but still - it runs really well. Give it a shot. You won't be disappointed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Yeah but it isn't easy to install in its current state.

The OP can probably use Hellraiser to bring over his favorite Cappy ROM, if he's willing to live with the known issues with Hellraiser.

I rebooted many times in between metamorph my Swype and it has stayed. Did you go back into swype installer after morphing? It sometimes dissappears if you don't because the keyboard wasn't licensed properly.

I will definitely have this up today!

Sounds like something I already had in mind. Let me know what color of blue tho. I'm about to start doing different styles and just copying them in a set amount of colors. Let me know what color/shade you want so I can start the series with your color of "Icy"
