fail phone.. tegra 3 is already released and this phone just came out..

and exynos is way better than tegra 2..

what is samsung into this time? :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hayspat:
I sold my tegra powered atrix only for it has no neon. I dont care benchmarks. I underclocked to 800mhz for battery saving anyway.

Tegra 2 may be fast but without neon it is crap for me
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ambar_hitman:
This is interesting. What is this Neon you guys are talking about? Some instruction set?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vnvman:
Yep.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OrrPenn18:
LOL, games run faster on i1903? Whaat bull****...

If your phone was faster and better, Samsung would have released your phone after SGS right?

Aand anyways, check the benchmarks, our stock rom kj3/kk5 poops over 4000 anytime! :D

Show-off your benchies to Galaxy Y,they would be amazed and would consider you gods!,huh T-boys! :p :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Samsung Galaxy R was actually released after SGS 2 if is that what you meant.

In regard to other things you wrote, Congratulations!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rauschkugl:
Somebody close this threat please. It's always the same when a noob opens a thread about benchmark results. But doing it in the forum of another device to impress the ones with the better phone is much more stupid.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OrrPenn18:
No, I meant if Galaxy R was such-a awesome flagship quality phone, Samsung would have released that after prev flagship phone SGS, duh!

And for your last line, Thanks! :p

And anyways, I was just wondering why OP posted it here, didn't mean any harm to Galaxy R users!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Now it's clear! <beer> :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sleepycat3:
Not true, I have run those tegrazone games on my SGS2 with Chainfire3D and the i9100 SGS2 is much faster than a Tegra2 phone. Example is Galaxy on Fire 2 HD. Much much much faster on SGS2 and you can turn on 4x AA and have less jaggies while still being faster than Tegra2.

Anyway, the I9100 and I9103 are both SGS2 phones. Why create this us vs them mentality? We should be working together to bring down our favourite cousin, the Galaxy Nexus. :p
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vnvman:
It really is a threat lol...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] krobar77:
ouch ...LOL..

anyway vnvman/hayspat.. thanks for the info about the NEON thingy.. I just know about it..

so its mean NEON is like MMX,MMX+,SSE1/2/3 .. which enhance the x86 CPU

something similar right?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crachel:
This is not related to the GT-i9100.

Since there are no i9103 forums, this post belongs in our Android Software and Hacking General.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kamaliqwan:
hahaha u guys r funny!

at first i thought this thread is crap. but after i read each comment now i know the details about SGS2 processor. i learned something new today! Thanks guys! :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ZRong223:
90% of fanboys of Galaxy SII detected...

You guys keep talking about Galaxy SII and the bad side of Tegra 2.

This is TOTALLY unfair and irrational.

Remember, everything (other than smartphones) has its own good and bad sides.

erm... i just found out today when I comparing my friend's SGS2.. in the SETTINGS>DISPLAY> and there is a gyro calibration.. and SGR dont have this..

is this meaning that SGR dont have gyroscope?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
Well here in Austria with Hutchinson 3 you get the Galaxy R for FREE if you take a 20 € per month contract. Under these conditions the Galaxy R is an amazing phone. You can't get any better for that money.

Peace

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

Of course it has a gyroscope but probably it's just not possible to calibrate it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] josjator:
Settings > Display > Horizontal Calibration

At least on KI2 stock ROM.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] krobar77:
ermm.. but in SGS2 got both in their SETTINGS.. Gyroscope Calibration and Horizontal Calibration too..

just wondering...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] legion1911:
Go to the market and download Elixir and you will see how many sensors you have on the Galaxy R.

The phone knows exactly where he is, how you hold the device, how close you are to the device, how much light is in the room, and much more.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] krobar77:
ok got it.. installed and yes it does shows gyro sensor.. but not sure how it works though..

btw.. we already got 300++ vote for a forum.. but when are they going to create one?

can't wait for a proper forum thread..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] legion1911:
I think we need more votes to impress them.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nedooo:
I used both, almost same shi...t :D

None is waaaay better, some slight advantage to Exynos, but nothing to write home about.

But I would like S2 with HD LCD not AMOLED (fu.kin. burn in), still iPhone has the upper hand in performance ;)

Enjoy your phones :D

Either way none is worthy upgrade to original SGS ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sharpshooterrr:
I wonder why most people don't consider burn-in when buying their S2. Was about to buy i9103 but discovered it doesn't have MHL. Oh well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ZRong223:
Maybe MHL is a must for you. You should know that not all Galaxy R users will care for this...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sharpshooterrr:
Yeah I would think that not a lot of Galaxy R users would need or want MHL, but burn-in with S2 is another thing.
[HTC Desire S] adamantios23:
Hi guys i have an desire s and i want to install some .apk apps like gps programms......

when i connect my phone to pc i see tha sd card like hard disk and i do copy-paste from my pc to sd card the .apk file........But when i try to open my phone without pc i cant see this .apk file nowhere.........

And second i cant enable mobile internet so i cant have 3G access...........

thansk............
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
What file manager are you using? Try ES File explorer from the Market.

P.S. : Are you using a file manager at all?? Or are you looking for the transferred apks in the app drawer? Trust me, i know a dude who was doing exactly that!!!:p
[HTC Desire S] det66:
You can side load .apk s from the HTC desktop software . when you connect cancel sync and on the main window it has an application installer button just browse to the apk on your pc and click the button
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You're right mate, but there is no reason he shouldn't be able to see apk files transferred to the sd card.

I believe that is a more fundamental thing that should be taken care of, rather than looking for a workaround to install apps. Don't you agree?
[HTC Desire S] det66:
Of course mate ,just offering an alternative
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
And before his phone will let him he's gotta go Menu, Settings, Applications, and tick the Unknown Sources box.
[HTC Desire S] adamantios23:
You are right........i dont use any file explorer............

i will try ES........

thanks
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
See?

I had a hunch you weren't... :D

It's a very common mistake made by first time smartphone users. So don't worry about it. And BTW, read the post above about allowing non-market apk installs, without which you won't be able to install these apps from sd card.

Happy app-ing!!:D:D:D
[HTC Sensation] Kevin001111:
I have Faux clock and Setcpu installed on my phone, I use SetCPU for the widget and the profiles, while I use Faux clcok for GPU IO control and undervolting. Will having both controlling the cpu cause any battery problems or cpu problems? I have them set both to the same settings atleast for the screen on and screen off (these are the only settings that both apps have the same of) to avoid any problems.
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
its probably better to only have 1 cpu controlling app running at a time. if you want to undervolt and control the cpu speed i recommend system tuner. the user interface may scare you at first but just go to the tweaks icon at the bottom and set the cpu speed/profile and undervolt there. it will be all you need unless you really find it necessary to control the gpu, which i dont think is really necessary anyway
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
this isn't a legit versus, i just need some advice on which tablet i may enjoy more.

I love to watch youtube, i love to surf the net and play flash games.. I love to read books.

my main uses i got out of my ipad 1 was utube and browsing, but i can't handle lag... will this device be faster then the ipad 1? in all aspects? Is the ipad 2 really that big of a leap from the first?

edit: i used the ipad mainly for these little things, but that doesn't mean i wouldn't love other things. I have no idea what this tablet can do, i only did those simple things before because i couldn't find any other uses out of my ipad.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ajamils:
For you use, either one is fine. In fact, you should save some money and pickup the original Transformer and that should be enough for your usage.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
read my edit :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:
Either device should be fine really.

In terms of Youtube, Browsing, and Flash Games, the Transformer has an advantage as you have the OPTION of Adobe Flash. Sure it slows browser speed and drains battery but at least you have the option and you can disable it to achieve "normal" speed.

For me, im getting the Transformer because I like the flexibility Android gives as well as the dock option. That way I could walk around with the Prime as a tablet with just the screen and dock it when im going to be sitting down and doing something.

You should also note that the Android Tablet market is far behind the Apple Tablet market. There are not too many apps for Android Tablets atm (which im sure will change eventually like it did for smartphone apps). You could look at your favourite IOS Apps and try to see if you can find them in the Android market.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
truth be told i do like the little games, but there not a huge deal to me, every once and awhile i would go look at a top 10 and find a few games, spend an hour or so on them and be done. Games are fun, but im sure android will be enough for me.

Im concerned that with flash on the browser will be laggy? even with the quad core?

what other things have people found they like to do with there tablet?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:
There are a bunch of reviews on this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1370912

Regarding flash, it will definitely be slower than HTML5 but it is definitely still usable. Generally flash should be kept off unless you are on a site that is not compatible with HTML5.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
not sure what HTML.5 is... im pretty choked to hear that my browsing will be laggy with my flash on. I don't know nothing about nothing, but 4 cores can't handle flash? that sucks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mletchworth:
Why not go to best buy (or wherever) and play with the original transformer TF101? Browse to some flash websites and see how they feel.

Until any of us actually get or hands on one of these, all of these helpful comments are just based on speculation and "hearsay"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
I wouldn't mind knowing what people liked to do with there old android tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
HTML5 is a number of API's and technologies that add new functionality to the modern web. Modern web consists of PHP or other server side engine that generates pages of HTML for you, HTML itself that is sent to your browser and is rendered by your browser, CSS that styles how HTML looks and JavaScript that modifies what is displayed by your browser.

HTML5 is an incremental update to most of those technologies. It consists of new HTML elements that your browser knows how to display (like video and audio without flash), it consists of CSS3 which includes new rules that describe to your browser how to display certain HTML elements (like rounded and gradient buttons that so far have been only possible with pictures only) and new JavaScript API's that allow your browser to draw Flash-like animations, store data locally in new ways or use geolocation in your device.

As a regular user you won't notice a difference in the end, HTML5 is still not an official standard but after a while it will replace all existing Flash in the web. For example, many browser-supported games already work without Flash (including Angry Birds) and sites like YouTube have an option to already work entirely without Flash and display videos through HTML5 only.

In few years time Flash won't exist in any of the major services you are using today and most users won't even notice a difference while web will be faster and more standardized in the end.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Aethor:
Possible uses:

- manga reading: install one of manga reader apps (I recommend Manga Watcher, tried a number of them and this one is the best) and create your manga library... it downloads them from assorted web sites and stores on your tablet

- ebook reading: best app would be MoonReader (it's free, and there is MoonReader Pro, paid version)

- comics (cbr/cbz)

- movies: Original TF plays well up to SD (640x480) and widescreen (maybe up to 800ish x 400ish, 720p is hit and miss, usually too slow. With all software updates it plays well up to 720p but not 1080p. Try RockPlayer and MoboPlayer

- Netflix

- games: there is better stuff than flash games... look for THD-labelled games. Also stuff from Gameloft. Still, I would expect iPad 2 to be better in this regard.

- as a notebook if you have a keyboard... its Office app package is usable for taking notes etc, but it's definitely not in the same class as the regular MS Office which you can have on a Windows netbook.

- Skype? Not using it myself, but it should be a decent Skype device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokusho:
No Gameloft games work on the Transformer.

Well, at least gameloft doesn't allow Transformer users to buy their game for whatever dumb reason they have.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
Most common uses for me:

- handwriting for studies (also on PDF books),

- games

- reading PDF books (those that my Kindle can't handle) and comic books,

- reading news and www in general,

- youtube videos,

- e-learning (I study in a mode where half of the lessons is on the internet).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ravynmagi:
I'm an iPad 1 owner that is getting an Transformer Prime.

I bought my iPad because there were no good Android 10 inch tablets at the time. I tried upgrading to an original Transformer and Galaxy Tab 10.1, but Honeycomb really disappointed me. So I returned those and stuck with the iPad.

Flash used to be important to me. It's less important now. I still want it to play videos, because a lot of videos are still Flash only. I would not use it for Flash based web games though. Flash really kills browser performance. So it's a double edged sword. But still nice to have.

For me a big deal with an Android tablet over an iPad are things like having micro SD and HDMI ports. I can easily supplement my storage and pretty much have unlimited storage capacity by just buying more SD cards. And I can plug in my tablet easily to my TV (without the need of a big ass ugly adapter).

iPad certainly dominates when it comes to apps. But Android actually has a pretty decent selection of apps that work well. Unfortunately sometimes I find an Android version of an app to be inferior to an iPad version, such as TuneIn. But it's usually not to big an issue.

Not sure if the iPad 2 supports USB controllers. I know I can plug in a USB keyboard with it's adapter. I may end up playing 3D games on my Transformer Prime though because Android support game controllers (I'll need to buy a big ass ugly USB adapter like the iPad though).

I'm really torn on which screen ratio I like more. At first 16:10 was my obvious favorite. But after using an iPad for well over a year. I'm kinda found that 4:3 ratio has some pretty nice points as well. If I want to hold the tablet in one hand, I found it's more comfortable to do that in portrait mode. 16:10 tablets are way too narrow to read many websites in that position, while 4:3 still has more width for that.

iPad has a much smoother overall experience. Android 4.0 looks like it's improving, but they seem to still be behind trying to catch up. But on the other hand Android let me put my icons where I want, use widgets and customize my UI a lot more.

I really liked my iPad. And the iPad 2 looks great. But for me the Transformer Prime is an no brainer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Is this really true? I hope not as I have a ton of great game loft games on my iPad that I hope will be on Android also once I get the Prime. Even of it doesn't let you download the game, can't you side load it or install the game from another android device if you put the APK on it? Why would game loft make such a dumb move. It's not like their apple only as I see some older game loft titles on other android devices. Asus prime with tegra3 would be perfect to showcase the great games they put out. I won't base decision on getting tablet based solely on video games. I don't have any home console systems anymore and haven't for a long time but my iPad 1 is now my only source for playing video games and served that purpose very well. Game loft needs to get with the program ASAP. Anyone know the reason why they won't work on Transformer? I have tegra2 Atrix phone and side loaded Order n chaos up there and it played perfectly. This was even before they officially real eased it to be compatible. Thanks to this great XDA forum ;). So if it could play perfectly on my Atrix phone, I'm sure the original transformer or the new prime shouldn't have any trouble pushing it.

As far as other uses for tablets, it's what you make the most of it. I do all these things other posters stated and more on my ipad1. Trust me, a lot more can be done with these Android and apple tablets than most people believe. It's not all about playing games and watching movies or you tube..lol. These are and can be great productivity devices and make things a lot easier and more efficient. Since I got my iPad almost 2 years ago or whatever, I've never used a regular computer since. Whether it be a desktop or laptop. Never had the need to. Everything I can do so much faster with my iPad. As I have it jail broken and modded out like crazy to allow me to do most things a regular pc can do. Everyones needs will be different. I'm still amazed with this tablet just like the first day I got it. Can't wait to get my hands on the Prime and fall in love all over again.

Great points as I'm an ipad1 owner also. I use it for everything. Feel the same way as ipad1 and 2 is great BUT Transformer Prime will be my next device. As it seems more future proof. Plus you won't necessarily need adapter for game controller for Android, it's been stated and seen the bluettooth wireless gamepads are supported now on Android. Lots of reviews where people using new transformer prime with logitech wireless controller. Asus also states it will work with Wii, PS3, Xbox 360, and most other wireless models also. So wireless controller gaming on original and transformer prime already been confirmed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ravynmagi:
At first when they mentioned wireless game controller support, I assumed I could use my Xbox 360 controller without having to plug in the receiver. But then I noticed in some reviews the guys had to plug in the wireless USB receiver with their Logitech controller ASUS gave them. So now I'm assuming the Xbox controller will be the same, need to plug in the wireless receiver to work. Which kinda makes "wireles support of game controllers" kinda silly marketing bull if true.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] polbit:
To me the worst part about the iPad is the screen, or more specifically, the screen resolution. I bought the original iPad when it came out, and the reading experience was just crappy - the fonts were just fuzzy and it tired my eyes too fast.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I noticed that also. I guess it depends on the type or wireless controller it is. Of it relies on just bluetooth, then I don't think you will need a receiver plugged into USB port. Some videos show no piece hooked up and the wireless controller working fine. I guess through Bluetooth.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reflex99:
As an owner of both an iPad 2, and 2 Android tablets, If you want Youtube, and flash games, android is the only way to go.

The Android Youtube app is much less restrictive. Most VEVO content, and music videos can be played, whereas most music videos are blocked on the iPad app.

Flash isn't even available on the iPad, but it kinda makes up for it since there are many more games on Apple's AppStore, but as much as I love paying money for games, free flash based games are better.

/2cents
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nixtip:
I'm web developer for many years and if Flash is properly optimized it will take less power-processor usage then HTML5, also when people say HTML5 have in mind HTML5 on its own can't do much, it must work with CSS2/3 and JavaScript to be able to do some proper "stuff".

Flash will rock on games and video especially HD and that will be the future, HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript will take more websites. But Flash and Flex will remain as superb choice for creating advanced RIA's or Apps for Tablets and Smartphones.

Flash and Flex has unique very advanced GUI that no other solution on this planet can compete with and when they would be able to, Flash technology will have even more features than what they have.

So entertainment Flash is #1 choice for a long long time to come. Just keep yourself updated with latest versions and you'll be all good.

I like HTML5/CSS3/JS but you gotta make ton of manual coding, where in Flash you can simply do drag&drops and do this far more easily then in any other technology. Not to mention components for developers, it's just too easy comparing to anything else.
