Is there a way to make the browser use the system brightness setting? I don't use auto-brightness and don't want to manually adjust the browser brightness every time I use it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbyphoenix:
+1 I want to know too. I wouldn't even really bother if you can set both the same, but since they don't display a % on how bright it is you can't get it the same. You can set the display brightness to exactly 50%, but the browser either goes a bit dimmer, or a bit brighter than 50%. Ugh

Try clearing all your caches in recovery. If that don't work get the apk from the dev section and put it in system/app and make sure your permissions are set right

[General Topics] Zytryx:
Well I picked one up on an upgrade, I wanted the Vivid, but the AMOLED screens are just to nice, I have 30 days anyhow. According to the map I should be in LTE but near the edge, doesn't seem like I'm getting LTE though.

BTW is there a way to turn off LTE if you want?

I also notice that my old Captivate screen seems brighter though.
[General Topics] mjmonsada:
should i wait for the galaxy nexus hoping that it will come to at&t or should i just get the skyrocket?
[General Topics] crawlgsx:
Ditto. I went with an open mind to both, used both for a while, the Samsung screen wins hands down. You can say all you want about resolution or DPI Specs, but when you see the 2 phones side by side it is not even a comparison, let alone if you compare sunlight/brightness.

I believe there is a way to turn off LTE but I haven't figured it out yet. In some screenshots (posted somewhere on XDA) I saw a menu that had 3g/HSUPA/LTE and then an option for just 3g/HSUPA+ with no LTE. I can't find that menu though :).

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 PM ----------

No one can answer that for you. How long are you willing to wait? The Nexus is an unknown for AT&T. It hasn't even been comfirmed that it IS coming, let alone a release date. Speculation says yes, there is a GSM model, but that doesn't mean it will come or when. I wasn't willing to wait. If it comes I will just sell my Skyrocket and buy the Nexus.
[General Topics] MisterEdF:
Absolutely 100% agree. I don't even like the higher resolution screen because the fonts and icons are smaller. Reminds me of my old 3.2" phone with more space for tiny icons. Of course my 64yr old eyes aren't as good as they used to be either.

---------- Post added at 06:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:03 PM ----------

Absolutely! .....
[General Topics] Earthdog:
ATT is not the same as Verizon LTE. The LTE does not eat the battery in my experience so far. I find it the same as my SG2 that I exchanged.

But I am sure when we get ROOT and some ROM's there will be a toggle.
[General Topics] malickie:
If I had the extra Money I would have gotten this but still the HTC Vivid is nice. Not sure if the Samsung has built in FM Radio but the HTC Does. Regardless though both are nice I just couldn't afford the difference in price. That and I also remembered when I was looking at the devices that AMOLED Has a degradation Issue.
[General Topics] tejones36:
Yeah, need a forum to get away from the AT&T Galaxy S II forum hate of the Skyrocket. I've had better network speeds and very good benchmarks myself. Now I need root! :)
[General Topics] qwertyaas:
How do you like the Skyrocket as opposed to the SGSII?

I went to the ATT store today to check out the Vivid and Skyrocket (they don't have the SGSII anymore on display). The Vivid was big, heavy and bland colors to me. But the phone looks so nice.

The Skyrocket just looked big and the dev support is a question mark as it's veers off the path of the Internations SGSII.

I ended up jumping on a SGSII from BB for $99. And hopefully my Reward Zone points come through for the phone which would be enough for a $100 gift card :D
[General Topics] tejones36:
I like it quite a bit so far.

I did some benchmarks of my Galaxy S II (and saw some on the Skyrocket on YouTube, which pretty much sold me.) I like the larger screen and form factor. I don't notice any of the pixellation people were talking about, and the bigger screen for me means more readability. The Quadrant benchmarks were just odd when I started playing with them myself. They seemed to run from 2900 up to 3900, but the FPS was definitely lower than the OG while watching the tests run. I'm not into FPS style of gaming on a mobile phone personally - but the Need For Speed (crippleware) on the phone ran incredibly smoothly. The AnTuTu benchmark outperformed the (stock clock) OG, but the odd thing is it took a couple of warm-up trials before getting the best set of numbers. It will only be a matter of time until we have an overclock kernel.

Network speeds are much higher, even though I don't live in an LTE area. On the OG I was limited to 2.4 Mbps speeds - but in the exact same spot, I'm getting 5.6 Mbps speeds on the Skyrocket. Obviously if you live in an LTE area the difference is much higher, but the improved network boost here meant much more to me than a lower OpenGL framerate. This was testing with Entropy's 11/3 daily driver as well, which optimized the read buffers. The stock kernel for me was even slower.

I don't notice any of the screen stuttering that others have mentioned.

I consider it an upgrade personally.
[General Topics] deeken:
On the AT&T website the Skyrocket is going for $149 while the original SGS II is going for $199. I thought this phone was supposed to come out for ~$250.

Is this phone supposed to be inferior to the original?
[General Topics] MvP77:
I looked at this phone today when I returned my galaxy s 2. I was torn between the skyrocket and the vivid but Went with the vivid because the skyrocket doesn't have exynos and I really like the build quality of the vivid
[General Topics] DANIEL133337:
I'm loving my Skyrocket!! Got it first thing this morning! :) Only thing I would have liked is that for the screen to be as big or bigger than the infuse. AT&T worker told me that atleast 15 LTE phones should be out by the end of the year :)
[General Topics] cataldi1122:

[General Topics] preetshardoc:
How is it different from the regular unlocked Samsung Galaxy S2?​
[General Topics] AllGamer:

[General Topics] deeken:
Man none of these phones really interests me. The SGS II is already 8 months old, the Skyrocket is the same phone (basically) with a bigger screen and the Vivid is nice but has battery issues as per several online reviews.

I want a 720p screen phone with expandable memory. Why is that so much to ask AT&T? Why?!?!
[General Topics] crawlgsx:
These phones are just a holdover for me, just like the Inspire was for me.

Hopefully we will get the Nexus (or similar) early next year.
[General Topics] Longcat14:
15 LTE phones by the end of 2011? That's stupid.

By the end of 2012 would be reasonable, but not 2011.

AT&T & Tmobile

It sucks cause i have t-mobile and the skyrocket i have just discovered is running an Exynox rather than my 1.5 snapdragon processor. THE SKYROCKET WILL BE SO MUCH FASTER AND i just dont understand why the hell they would come out with this phone after just coming out with the AT&T version and the Tmobile verison.

But to answrer all questions regarding the unboxing. IT WILL BE EXACT SAME just better SPECS!

The skyrocket isnt an exynos, it is also a snapdragon.
[General Topics] Spartoi:
And Snapdragon is much slower than Exynos.
[General Topics] Intratech:
LAWLZ!!!!

The 1.5 GHz Snapdragon is slower than the 1.2 GHz Exynos SoC pal.
[General Topics] crawlgsx:
Try barely slower. Even in benchmarks, which I could care less about, Exynos has a healthy lead in a couple, close on some, and loses on some.

it is far from "MUCH" slower.

You enjoy your benchmark war, you are all being ridiculous. The 1.5ghz Snapdragon is plenty fast and the Skyrocket has 0 lag, nor does the 1.2ghz Snapdragon in the Vivid, Nor does the Exynos. They are all very fast phones

Pettyness FTL.
[General Topics] votinh:
I don't care about benchmark, I don't care about playing games, all I want is

1. an unbias review of which device loading web pages faster? SGS2 or Skyrocket?

2. which device will last longer? In some sites, it indicates the SGS2 get 8 hrs, some shows 3 hrs, reviewers on ATT site only give 3 stars for battery, is it the SGS2 that bad? will the Skyrocket any better?

3. reception and clarity of the call? which one is better or they are the same?

4. picture/video performance? which one is better or they are the same?
[General Topics] AllGamer:
+1

that's typical of people making a mole hill into a mountain :p
[General Topics] Spartoi:
Barely slower? In what? From all the videos/rul I've seen of a 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S3, it is also shown slower than Exynos at 1.2Ghz. As far as benchmarks go, there is no argument to even be had. Snapdragon S3 is almost questionable of being dual-core. Compare the Skyrocket with a 1.5GHz S3 at 800x480 to the Galaxy Note with a 1.4GHz Exynos at 1280x800 and see how badly Exynos runs circles around it despite the lower clock speed and much higher resolution.

I'm sure it doesn't, but whatever. People will always try to justify owning their device.
[General Topics] digitalnrg:
I did the upgrade with Best Buy for $250. Came back the next day with a snapshot of AT&T website listing price of NY zip code for $150 and they returned my $100. This is YMMV but worth a try folks.

I'm like most of you guys was torn choosing between the 2 phones. I ended up choosing skyrocket because it's alot lighter and thinner for room to upgrade a better battery.
[General Topics] GSX-Rob:
Benchmark watchers will never cease to amaze me. Congratulations, your phone is faster than my phone in a limited synthetic test meant as one of a million possible measurements. Imperceptible in the real world, but a pretty number to satisfy the soft of skull.

Has anyone successfully run Backtrack 5 on the photon? In theory it should work, i think? Including link below to it being run on a Moto Xoom. My question is could this be run on the Photon? If so, it wouldn't require an unlocked bootloader, right? And how would you boot to it, just like a normal app in appdrawer or would it have to be in some sort of dual boot mode? Nooby questions i know, but just want to play around with my Photon and see what it can do. I do have an SBF file ready incase i manage to screw it up haha. Thanks guys

Here is a website that gives a general rundown of the UID GID and Sticky Bit settings.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Gd... Thank you SO MUCH....

Awesomesauce.

<<work in progress>>
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
UID and GID are also used for file ownership, not just for executable files.

Example on Android: Each application when it is loaded is given its own unique UID/GID. Android security only allows each application access to all the files marked with the same UID/GID for that application.

This is one example of how Android security prevents applications from accessing the files of another application.

Root Explorer is giving you the same access you would have over adb shell to run chown (changes UID) and chgrp (changes GID).

Also, in addition to UID and GID which I read as User ID and Group ID (maybe I'm wrong in that), there are permissions on each file. There are only two main permissions I find myself adjusting on Android.

The su binary and any other type of "executable" binary.

To change permissions via the command line the tool is chmod. Often to restore the su binary to having root access we run: chmod 4755 /system/bin/su . The Superuser.apk.zip file flashed through recovery manually executes this command: chmod 4755 /system/bin/su to setup the root binary properly.

My Root Check application will show these permission types in the Advanced mode. Understanding the permissions helps diagnose and troubleshot issues with root access.

Hope that helps!
