ah crap...

i just read this on engadget:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/21/the-galaxy-nexus-super-amoled-display-is-a-minus-not-a-plus/

even though the Galaxy Nexus is going to have the largest display, it's not a full RGB display. they compared it to a Galaxy S and found the S had a better picture quality and is saying the Nexus has about as many pixels as an iphone 4S with it's 3.5" display compared to the Nexus' 4.65

man...

so then,

RAZR = locked bootloader + non-removable battery

Nexus = no microSD support + large sub sub-par display

Rezound = 2 out of date CPU's(instead of dual-core) that'll have very bad battery life

what the hell htc/motorola/samsung... !?.. great, offer more options this holiday season but give each one big disadvantages from the get go.
[Thunderbolt General] fetalp:
Agreed! although Samsung is releasing the Nexus it still is a gamble on the device, the SGS2 is riddled with problems staying connected with signal loss and data, Samsung is super slow on firmware updates, even the Nexus S 4G which got updates quickly from google still have issues from samsung updating their parts of the phone, horrible camera, glitchy, and overall a dissapointment. Hopefully after a month or so they fix any issues that the new Nexus will have. It could be good, also Nexus S didn't come with micro sd either...as for HTC updates come from them really consistently but not always 100% working too, I am no fan of sense and how much it takes up but at least DEV's seem to work on HTC's and do awesome work, and MOTO - Locked again-non removable battery what a shame, I am curious how their Super Amoled Advanced screen looks though.

ICS will be ported to high hell here and at rootzwiki and many other places, its a waiting game at least to CES for me, then we'll see something really good!!

I had such horrible issue from 3 Samsung phones on Sprint that I switched to Verizon, the Razr does look good but a lot of reading here and other android sites many of you vets with verizon don't like Motorola much. I have also heard that the Samsung Droid Charge was junk especially with dropping data. Damn samsung alright I'm done
[Thunderbolt General] chef2:
Now thats a funny comment!
[Thunderbolt General] androidaddict23:
Guess IM going with the Vigor (rezound) cause off contact the galaxy nexus cost $700 of contact. For those on other carries unlocked $800 which is insane.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Vigor will be even more power hungry than the thunderbolt. They are just making the battery a tad bigger so you should get similar battery life as you do with bolt if not worse.

If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
if you think the cost is bad for those, whenever a new iphone comes out, it sells upwards of $1,000 on craigslist/ebay. that and i think the new iphone 4s is going to be like $750 off contract from apple/verizon.

i kept going back & forth trying to decide on the new phones and thought i was set on the Nexus... but now thinking about the Rezound. and yeah, the battery is going to be terrible on that thing. i just hope a good sized extended battery will become available a.s.a.p. (5000mAh+)

p.s. that's a manly back cover:
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
*Sighs*

The Rezound is dual core, *not* 2 CPUs.....
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
I like that back cover more than Bolt since it covers the whole back not half ass like on the Bolt. Reminds me of my cover for my old Droid Inc.

If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
heh.. yeah i read the specs as being dual core also, but everyone kept arguining that it's actually cpu's. finally decided to research the cpu myself "Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8660" and yes, it is in fact dual-core. looks to be an older cpu though as the data sheet for it was dated Jan 27, 2011. but then again, quad-core cpu's are going to be in phones early 2012
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
hah... check this out:

[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
I would not expect quad core anything before Q2 2012.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
I will try to locate the sites I read up on but it said two scorpion cores together will make up the dual core CPU of the Rezound. Which will be the same scorpion core used on the thunderbolt, maybe I worded it wrong.

[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
link to the phone's detailed specs:

link to the cpu in the phone:

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a8660&c=qualcomm_snapdragon_msm8660
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Thunderbolt is Snapdragon version 2. (S2)

Rezound will be Snapdragon version 3. (S3)

They didn't just slap two cpus together ;)

Your confusion is coming in because they are referring to Scorpion cores.

Well, S1-S3 are Scorpion.

Its no different than all omap3 versions, or all omap4 versions.
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
although 2 cpu's would be cool... like a "server" phone. as long as it's a 10,000mAh battery i'd get it.
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
S4 is no longer Scorpion. It is Krait.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
So million dollar question will Rezound have better battery life than thunderbolt?

If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Yea your right site above is where I found this info.

2x Qualcomm Scorpion Harvard Superscalar processor core.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cherokee4Life:
I have been some serious issues with this and need some assistance.

A little background. My college (who also has a rooted EVO 4G) asked me 1 day if my "people" app kept force closing. At the time we both had the Synergy ROM. And my people app was working perfectly.

The day after my "people" app started to force close randomly and whenever I opened it. I thought nothing of it until I really needed to get into it. So I decided I was going to wipe and flash a new ROM. So I flashed MikG 2.58 and everything was fine for a day. Then day 2 of the new ROM Google asked me to sync some Google contacts with Google contacts. (I did not sync Facebook yet) Every since then it Force Closes.

Is it possible to wipe all the contact syncs I have done on my phone. I really don't want to reflash..... :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
Settings > Accounts & Sync > click on your gmail account > Uncheck "Sync Contacts" option
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cherokee4Life:
Trying it now

I am trying it right now. I knew it was going to be something simple that I overlooked.

Does this reset all Google Synced contacts or just stop further syncing?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
as far as I know all it does is stop further syncing. If you want the contacts to not be displayed then

1. go to your contacts

2.hit menu button

3. select "Display Option"

4. Under the header "Choose Contacts to Display" you select your Google account

5. Uncheck all of the boxes

6. Minimize Google account window and then select the Facebook account

7. Uncheck all of the boxes

8. Minimize Facebook account window and press "Done."

That should remove all of your accounts from view. This is at least how it's done on my phone. Your phone may, or may not, have the same ability and process.

If you want all of your contacts deleted from your phone then I think you'll just have to go through and manually delete them all.

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cherokee4Life:
It helped

Well I am not sure either, but People has stopped Force Closing. I was assuming it was a corrupted contact that was there, but I went back and "resynced" and its working fine now. I greatly appreciate it sir! ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:

I am pretty much sure you need to be rooted for overclock. Are you?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgsshedden:
lots of kernels which allow for OC. Several programs that allow you to monitor and set OC available on the market, most have a free version that you can try and then buy the pro version once you have made a choice. Some kernels allow for more user control and variance, others are more prescribed -- a lot of it is personal preference and so much is phone dependent: no 2 phones are the same in terms of what OC or UV settings they will sustain.

Lastly, most kernels will have their own group of users and advocates. Some have experimented extensively with alternate kernels, some less so, but all will have a passion for the kernel that is their personal preference. There really is no substitute for your own trial and error. Download 3 or 4 and try them with a stock rom -- root and use sgs kernel flasher -- flash a custom kernel, set your OC and use it for a day. Flash another, repeat the process and continue until you find your preference.

Having found the kernel you like best, then set about flashing a custom rom that plays nice with your chosen kernel.

Take about a week but at the end you will know what you like best and why.

Between flashes, clean cache and davlik cache -- keep a good backup of apps on your pc or external sd, and even better, completely cleanse the phone between kernels -- that will standardize things and allow each kernel to operate on a clean system.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yanluk:
Your Tab storage partition is formated in FAT32 system, so the maximum file you can copy on to it is 4GB. And i think that's what causing your problems.

The only way is to re-encode your video with smaller bit rate to get a smaller file size (or split video to multiple files)

Another thought comes to mind. How big are your files? Try converting them in to a Samsung friendly files (I say that because some large 1080p MKV files are huge and don't work well on the Samsung)

i don't seem to have this problem. I just touch and drag-up on the launcher icon and its there. it does pop up when coming back to the homescreen once in a while, but thats not really an issue.

Problem i did notice tho, is that the icons on my homescreen can't be place at the left or right edge, its just a blank column that i can't put apps in, really minimizes the space i have and doesn't look as nice with everything closer to the middle. I only have this issue with EX, not the free version.

Any help there?
[TouchPad General] ROORnNUGZ:
Are you talking about the regular "phone" dock bar (right side of screen in landscape) or the hidden dock bar (bottom of screen in landscape)? Because the regular one can be removed in the ui settings to give more screen real estate. Then there is another option to make the hidden one your main dock.
[TouchPad General] itsallsubliminal:
thanks for the tip on more screen realestate.. but i never had the dockbar along the side and can't seem to find the setting to put it there...

Nevermind I just assumed the main dock bar was on the side like launcher pro. But I figured out the hidden one can be set with a gesture so now mine can hide /unhide with a swipe down. The hidden one is way better anyway and can hold way more icons.
