What about this Samsung? I don't know much about their computers, only played with one netbook and it seemed nice, but no other experience..

It doesn't have the 1080 display which is a huge bummer tho..

[Off-topic] DeviateDefiant:
At the end of the day, it is your choice. My personal experience is that HP (Compaq), Dell and Acer (eMachines/Packard Bell) have the highest hit rate for all desktop/laptop machines. HP and Acer branches being the worst.

I recently got my girlfriend a low-end ASUS laptop (K25F?) I can vouch that it's extremely good build quality for the price. Their higher end models are even better. Lenovo/Toshiba are very good at the high end.

I use ASUS parts in all the machines I build, along with Corsair and OCZ products.

The choice is yours, I'd recommend reading up on reviews. Overclock.net is a good place to seek advice too.

EDIT:

Samsung are very good imo, I use Samsung for all monitors/TV. I've had a couple of charger ports to repair in the past, but no more so than other manufacturers.
[Off-topic] civicvx94:
Thank you for your reply, your opinion is definitely valued and taken into consideration. I suppose I should try to steer clear of HP then. BB doesn't have a great selection of Asus computers, mainly low end ones. I'm trying to stay in the 1200 max range and get the best bang for my buck.

I found a Lenovo with very similar specs to the Samsung I mentioned above -

"Lenovo Laptop - Intel® Core™ i7 Processor - 15.6" Display - 6GB Memory" http://bit.ly/oA20EM

Between the two manufacturers, who would you recommend?

Thanks again for your help.
[Off-topic] DeviateDefiant:
I'd definitely choose the Lenovo, it has a better GPU, more weight yet thinner (as ridiculous as it sounds heavier products tend to have better build quality) and it's $150 cheaper. It also looks better ;)

The Samsung however does have USB 3.0 ports, I can't find any listed information on the Lenovo.

EDIT: The Lenovo has USB 3.0 ports. Definitely the better bang for buck.

Hey guys,

First time poster, great site btw ;-)

Just upgraded ROM manager to premium after my first couple of times flashing ROM's has pretty much got me hooked now.

Strange thing is there are no premium ROM's. Is this norm for Desire S?
[HTC Desire S] LaKraven:
Unlike many other phones which have hundreds (nay on thousands) of ROMs (some good, most not so good), the Desire S community seems to adopt the "I'd rather have a choice of about a dozen properly refined ROMs, some with Sense, some without" philosophy!

The crux is that we end up with a nice small selection of really well-built ROMs (compared to most other phones)... elliminating the hell of constantly tripping up on bugs found in many other ROMs.
[HTC Desire S] Rankor Kain:
Thanks for the speedy reply.

Hi,

just came across this blog entry :)

http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_...amp-t-announces-new-windows-phone-lineup.aspx

Samsung Focus S (4.3" SAMOLED, 1.4GHz CPU, 4G, thin), Samsung Focus Flash (3.7", 1.4GHz CPU) are the never heard before phones there :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
The Focus S is probably the one Microsoft showed at the Worldwide Partner conference: http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/12/microsoft-unveils-new-windows-phone-7-handsets-from-samsung-ace/

If it's Worlwide and has a 32GB option it will most likely be my next phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hwalker84:
I think you're right Peew971.

I want to see it in action asap.

My next phone is going to be between the Focus S, iPhone 5 and Nokia WP7 device.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Too bad AT&T has such a low data limit for their smartphone plans, otherwise I'd think about that Focus S. Super AMOLED+ and the screen isn't unnecessarily large, with a 32 GB option.

Does it have a LED notification light like the HD7. If not, then nevermind.

[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
A 4.3" screen would be great. I have found myself wishing that my Focus's screen were a little bigger. I just wish HTC had better screens and specs. I have heard they are much easier to play with compared to Samsung. Either way, I love my Focus and the only thing that would be better than a Focus S is a Nokia phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] normz.muufin:
I think this is a question that many of us are asking. I would assume(hope) that most carriers will jump on allowing this feature along with others. I mean it can make them money right?

However I still think that windows phone is not taken seriously enough so its possible they may lack care/effort.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tempest790:
My Samsung Focus is a very good phone. I would have liked my next phone to have a physical keyboard though ie. HTC 7 Pro style. The LG Quantum's keyboard was too stiff for me. Judging from the all the press releases so far, it looks like physical keyboards are going away. I guess everybody has to look like an iPhone or something. I'm going to hold out a little while longer, but I will upgrade to the Focus S if I have too. Mainly for the HSPA+ speeds, providing the tethering hack is still available.

[Galaxy S II General] PhoenixG:
Hi, i got a problem with my S2. Sometimes, when locked, the phone can't be unlocked. The screen stays black and nothing happens. I thought it had shutdown and tried to boot it, but no answer from any button. Only thing that works is keep the ON button pressed for 10 seconds forcing the reboot, or remove the battery and put it again.

I'm using Criskelo V15 and T39 Speedmod Kernel. Other users in another forum are expierencing the same issue with different roms. I'm also using Green Power that i just uninstalled to see if it has any effect.

Any idea? Could be hardware related? It only happens when the phone is locked.

Thanks for any advice.
[Galaxy S II General] nomnompie:
The processor in your phone might not work well with speedmod. Could be too low of a downclock in sleep mode or something. I'm not familiar with what speedmod specs are but I would try a different kernel. All CPU's have different reactions to speeds lower or higher than stock. I had an old HTC Hero that would have wake issues on certain kernels/clock settings.

best thing to do is go back to stock rom and see if the problem persists..if it does then uh oh!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You can leave GPS on all the time [like if you use a power control widget, ect] or you can leave it off and turn it on when needed; it saves battery and is my preferred method.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackangst:
So, in 3.70, GPS is always on?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well its technically on, if you never turned it off; it sounds asinine, but just how it is. If you don't have a widget to turn it off, you can turn it off from location and security, from the settings menu.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
It is the same in the older ROMs. The GPS receiver is only turned on when an app requests it and it is allowed (i.e. you have enabled it is settings). The setting just prevents an app from using the GPS if you do not want it to be used at all. If you do this some apps will continue to function but use the coarse position from the cell network.

Any input on this issue I'm experiencing on my Bionic would be appreciated.

Get error stating "File cannot be displayed or played" when trying to play large video file

File is in MP4 format that will play on my PS3

File that won't play is 2.2GB but a 380MB file of same format does play

Phone is not rooted

I tried rebooting the phone by pulling the battery and that didn't help

Also tried MoBo player and Vplayer from android market and neither of those worked either

I'm an android noob (this my first, had it two days)

Not sure if the problem is the phone, the OS, the manufacturer, or just me so any input or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

[Motorola Droid Bionic] sycoares:
I have a friend with a Thunderbolt that is fairly certain he was able to play files of that size (he doesn't currently have any on it to confirm) so I wasn't under the impress this was an OS limitation.

I'd really like to try and figure out where the limitation lies so I can find a way around it or consider trading in the phone. If it's the OS there is probably nothing I can do but if it's only the Bionic then I may still have some options.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] sycoares:
After a lot more searching I finally found that the Android OS doesn't support video files over 2GB. That really should be better documented as it took me a long time to find any place that explicitly stated that. I tried a 1.85GB file and sure enough it worked with out any problems.

I've been trying to get the phone back to a normal state so I can start over. I had problems after flashing GB and Valhalla. The first time I flashed Valhalla all was fine except the phone icon in the apps drawer was gone. Then it started to soft reboot constantly and not recognizing the SD card. So I did the ext4 format etc and re did it and all worked except it kept soft booting again.

Now when I load CWM it says

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

and so on..can't partition..restore back up

And Linda complains as is that the system is not available.
