[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] qwertyaas:
That was a couple months ago but nothing since then. It's assumed that's the international version.

Although, the Galaxy Note just passed the FCC with AT&T bands... That's really tempting but that thing is just huge. Next phone for me is SGSIII.

yea same here our s2 will blow the nexus out the water with ics
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Artimus009:
Att just sent me a email stating they are giving away a ****rocket with the purchase of a 8.9 galaxy tab....no thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
wtf is with the hatred of the skyrocket from you guys?

if you dont like it, fine, but what is the point in going out of your way to refer to it as a ****rocket?

why go out of your way to make sure everyone else knows you hate it so much?

did the skyrocket kill your dog, rape your mom and **** on your cheerios? wtf?

i have seen some lame arguments 'against' it that dont mean anything. since i have both of them and use them side by side, i can honestly say that the only differences are with the thickness of the device. running touchwiz rom on both at the same time (obviously, not stock) feels the same. they both react the same as an OS, they both have the same OS features. One has LTE and the other is faster in benchmarks.....woohoo, i can run friggin benchmarks all day long and it doesnt mean anything. LTE allows me to view the web faster, OGGS2 allows me the freedom of tons of mods/development already done for the device.

at the end of the day, they are both good devices and haters gotta stop hatin so hard. save your hatred for Apple fanbois...lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TOA Duck:
This ain't the ****rocket forums. Go away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NJGSII:
I really don't get the hatred either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
apparently its the cool thing to do. and somehow i have to stay in 'my own forums' even though i have this device too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Alright, less talk about how the Skyrocket sucks and more about the GS2 getting ICS first.

My guess about the hate for the Skyrocket is because its considered to be the bad twin/evil stepchild/dirty whore cousin to the Galaxy S II (mainly due to the Snapdragon processor instead of the Exynos processor). While I dont condone nor approve of just simply slamming a device just because the cool kids are doing it... I will not tolerate telling a member to "leave and go back to their forums". Everyone is welcome here (unless they are a total douche and cant follow the rules) and everyone can contribute, especially those that own the device.

Now, everyone play nice before I have to start handing out infractions. Kthxbai.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Longcat14:
That person who is raging, is probably mad that his phone (AT&TSGSII) has already lost support by AT&T, a month after release.

Honestly, this phone IS a good phone, just like the Skyrocket.

And your right, the Snapdragon processor is what will cause the Skyrocket to get ICS later then the AT&TSGSII, and the LTE radio won't be any help..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NJGSII:
As if that's a bad thing(unless you prefer to leave your phone stock)?

I get all the support and updates I need from here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] loriolus:
I'll just share my objective opinion. I don't hate skyrocket or throw childish phrases but as soon as I handled the phone it just didn't feel right. It felt like a cheap plastic free phone....and they could've done a lot better with the backcover texture. OSGSII screen looks a lot better. O.2 difference in screen size may not seem to affect the ppi all that much at first but it does. I currently have the VIVID but thinking about switching with SII. I miss the Amoled colors and I like having a louder speaker...plus SII runs almost everything smoother. However, the VIVID feels fabulous in the hand...it just has that premium feel where the skyrocket seriously lacks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Johosophat:
I appreciate your contributions and also wonder why so many hate the skyrocket. I think all Android devices are unique and interesting, this one just shares many traits with its brother the SGSII.

All the arguing between and about the two devices is just silly.

****rocket does make me laugh everytime I hear it though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
completely agree with the battery cover on the SR. its horrid, but fixable with a case or i am sure someone is making aftermarket covers for them, or will be soon.

i havent noticed much difference in the screen between the 2, but i am running a moshi screen protector on the SR and bareback'in it on the i777.

the vivid feels great in the hand, i love a nice heavy phone, it exudes quality build. the quiet speaker is a little annoying, i have missed more calls on the vivid than any other phone. resolution is excellent on it, just what that size phone needs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cryosx:
The problem I find is that with the introduction of the skyrocket, the ATT GS2 community was split, pulling potential devs away from the I777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
What Devs left for the Skyrocket that were currently here?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Enzopreme:
i also own both devices, the i777 as well as the skyrocket, i ALSO own the i9100 and the t989. And i have to admit, the T989 and the skyrocket do produce a bit more lag during normal, everyday use, scrolling, browsing, switching between homescreens, etc. The exynos processor/mali gpu is just a better SoC combination than the qualcomm/adreno. To me, its not even comparable. BUT there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON to dis or talk bad about anyone with a skyrocket they are still sammy owners, they are still Galaxy S II owners. Just because you dont have a skyrocket doesnt mean that the skyrocket is ****. Its personal preference. Are you gonna tell someone who prefers reebok that they are stupid cause YOU wear nike? Everyone, please grow up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cryosx:
I said potential. If the skyrocket didn't exist, the i777 would be the go to phone on AT&T
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Oh I see what you mean. Yeah, thats certainly possible. Oh well, it is what it is.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyberpunkDad:
Nerdrage = Limp ****. Don't let the haters get you down PirateGhost.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] WMguy:
Here's a quote I clipped once from another forum. "It's nice that there are options. I just wish people would stop assuming that someone else is an idiot for not wanting the same things. In, of all things, a damn phone."

I've been here a long time and it didn't used to be this way. Still mostly good though.

I have the S2 and have had the SR too. I actually returned the SR because the camera wasn't as good (I realize it's the same camera). But mine may have been bad because it took really dark pictures. But both devices fly IMO. The SR was a little better for surfing and actually scrolled better through apps like Twitter.

Skinomi clear skins are awesome by the way. Adds no bulk obviously but also has a very grippy texture to it. I had it on my Nexus S and now on my GS2. Would do your SR wonders.

Cheers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TOA Duck:
I didn't **** on the device I just simply called pirate a troll. Kust a joke......Lol. Funny that the word instantly means I'm calling his mother a bad name or something.

Anyway it was a joke that he and his buddy got there panties in a wad about. I pmed him and tried to explain but was instantly replied to with a bunch of cursing and the like.

Oh well. No disrespect intended.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
you were most certainly not instantly replied with cursing and the like. you were replied to that way AFTER you told me i needed to go back to my ****rocket forums

i would gladly post all of our PMs here in the public for everyone to see. my first reply was not rude or hateful at all. my second reply was me telling you exactly what i think about you telling me to go back to the ****rocket forums....you sir, started this crap, and now you are trying to backpeddle and say it was all a joke, and 'woe is me', PG is a rude asshole....just drop it, you were in the wrong and you know it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TOA Duck:
Not the case at all. I guess we can bicker all day and night. I hope you don't live your life the way you do on here cause you must be miserable.

If we were in the real world I would be really afraid of you. People can't joke with you I guess without getting their heads bitten off. Lol

Relax....life will be alot more fun. Lol

Like the song from the 80s I think.

Relax.....don't do it........when ya wanna go to it......lol

Oh and here us the reply I sent to you since you mentioned posting it.

Hey man. that post was just a joke dude. I know who you are and what you do.I know from following this site that you work on all devices. Wanted to let you know. I appreciate what you do and that was just a joke. Sorry you took being called a troll as a personal attack.

And here was my second reply

And don't call me a disgrace to xda just because you over react to something intended as a joke. Why don't you take a xanax and chill before hour start making statements like that. I love this community and do contribute. I've tested roms for Mikey and others. In a nutshell, lighten up.

No thing ever said about going back to your own forums
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
ALL RIGHT YOU TWO, SETTLE DOWN RIGHT NOW... OR IM TURNING THIS CAR AROUND AND NOBODY WILL BE GOING TO DISNEYLAND!!!

Srsly, STFU... both of you.

In fact, Im going to close this thread to prevent and further bickering. I already asked not to go off topic and to return talking about the Skyrocket/GS2, but that clearly didnt happen.

I think the OP got the info he wanted. If not, OP feel free to create another thread... and hopefully that one wont turn into a ****storm.

Thread closed.
[Kindle Fire General] Avatar_Ko:
Everything on my Kindle has audio lag, including Plants vs Zombies, Netflix and the volume slider. I haven't done anything crazy to it, just a quick root and unroot to install the Google marketplace. I definitely haven't installed any background audio apps. Is there anything I can do?

Also, I posted about it in Amazon's customer forums. They actually called me and asked if they could pull some diagnostics from my Kindle. I told him that I'd rooted and unrooted and a few minutes after the call I got an email saying that my device is rooted so they've washed their hands of it. Figured I might stop lurking here and see if I can get any help.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tired of the Bull:
Is there a way to get the serial number other than the sticker on the back?

adb into your tablet and type the command

adb devices

that should show you the serial number of the device connected...I may be wrong though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martinlong78:
I'm having some real trouble with music on ICS, when the screen is switched off.

Here are the conditions:

1. My app uses a MediaPlayer to play music.

2. My app holds a PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK to keep the CPU awake.

3. I'm running a foreground service. It is very interactive with the user (via TTS and music) for about 30 mins. Mustn't be killed, and is tracking GPS updates and doing lots of stuff.

When the screen is switched off with the power button, the music starts to stutter. Not ALL tracks, but I've found a few with a 320 bitrate that have this issue.

I've noticed some interesting stuff.

When the screen is on:

(first line is the media service, second is my app.. they are the top 2 processes)

PID PR CPU% S #THR VSS RSS PCY UID Name

119 0 6% S 12 45484K 5780K fg media /system/bin/mediaserver

8852 1 4% S 23 493580K 65700K fg app_98 com.rundouble.companion

(When the screen is turned off (and the stuttering starts)

PID PR CPU% S #THR VSS RSS PCY UID Name

119 0 5% S 12 45484K 5780K fg media /system/bin/mediaserver

My app drops right off the screen (down to 0%) which I don't understand because I have a wake lock. But also the mediaserver reliably and reproducably drops to 5%. I suspect this is related to the stuttering.

Now, in the Google Music player the SAME HAPPENS, unless I turn on the "Sound Effect" option. However, I don't have API access to this from my app, so I can't turn it on. However, the fact that the Google Music app does the same suggests this is a bug with the MediaPlayer.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

Martin
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minooch:
Hmm,

Posting in the correct area is a good start!

What rom & radio are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
If you're using 350mhz as minimum frequency can you turn it up to 500mhz and see if it helps anything?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Superfrag:
The same thing is happening to me when I was listening to music the other day, using PowerAMP. Moment the phone goes to sleep, the music starts stuttering. Annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
If you have the option turn off the auto buffer and set it to huge or large. This solved my problem with poweramp. Google music player does not have this issue.

I have this issue with the goole music app as well, only on certain tracks though...dunno whats goin on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sinatosk:
I get this aswell... there is a buffer option in poweramp which I've not tried yet... glad I'm not the only one though :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Guys, I think this has something to do with the DAC (digital to analog converter). for me it only happens on analog outputs (speaker and headphones). It doesn't happen when streaming over bluetooth (which is digital).

If you experiencing this problem, please star this bug http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22444
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
I don't understand most of your post, but this bit jumped out at me. I use the Adidas miCoach app (which uses Google Music app) which does the same sort of thing, TTS+Music, GPS tracking etc. The music plays ok but then when it gives me an update it goes really slow and stuttery and I can't make anything out. It's really annoying!

I think also this must be related to this problem? - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1379600
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omgrtm:
Maybe something to do with sampling rate?

Not sure if this helps, but I've a similar problem, however with /just/ listening to music using Google Music app: as soon as the screen is off the music starts stuttering and jerks all over the place.

Only seen this happening with songs of sampling rate of 48kHz, anything under that seems to play nice.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bswright:
I thought I saw somewhere that you could flash Delta modem files (post dl09) and step it up to eh03 with edify scripts. Is this true? I searched through our forums, but found no leads. Any thoughts?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
from my understanding modem/radios can only be flashed in odin/heimdall/or adb.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landshark68:
Comradesven posted some CWM flashable modem deltas in the development section that could get you to ED04, but nothing for EH03.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
Oh yea thats right I forgot about those...Thanks landshark for clearing that up. Altough the ed04 radio was terrible for me. It seems ed05/ec09/eh09 are the better radios for our device.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bswright:
I was pretty sure Odin etc. was the only route to flashing modems. But what I thought I read was something about modems post dl09 were all being based of the that build. These cwm flashable edify scripts took you up through ea28 to eh03, but not to eh09. I thought maybe I saw it on android central and had files credited to ninjitsui(sorry if I misspelled, been away from the forums for a bit, cm7 has been that good). Bout all I can remember.

I know that for this plan to work with smart phones you need an additional data plan. I have a S2 I was wondering is it possible to get around it? My GF has a GoPhone can I just get her IMEI and go in the store and get a sim and say thats my IMEI or would it lock the sim to that phone?

I'm currently with T-mobile, but I can't get WCDMA/HSPA at all. When I set it WCDMA it wont pick up t-mobile and ill have to go back to Edge. This is why I want to go to AT&T

Thanks.

[Thinkpad Tablet Accessories] awtchan:
I have been using this case for the past month and very happy with it. The tablet fits snugly in it and there is minimal increase in its bulk. Functionally it works well rendering full access to all ports and the stylus. Highly recommended. Can be found at http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Folding-.../ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1323302708&sr=8-11(I got it from Ebay at a fortune though beacause Amazon refuses to ship it to me in Hong Kong)

Here are some pics

Moko is a great case. well designed, sturdy, very useful as it can hold the tablet up at two different angles. I have the keyboard, and use it on occasion, but my tpt spends most of its time in this case.

Lenovo Australia are currently having a half price sale on most accessories, including the folio case, which you can get for $20. got mine today, It is a great looking folio, with no leather over the bevel, which looks great. It just clips into a plastic inner.

Its a great sale, got the keyboard folio for $40, the lot for just over $100.

Not sure of the sale if it is worldwide on other Lenovo stores or how long it is on for.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwthor20:
OK, I really like the Live Weather Wallpaper, but I've got a couple of issues with it.

First, unchecking the Sound box by selecting the wallpaper, then Preview, then Settings has no effect. The sound is always there when unlocking the phone. The dev Seo had a patch for one of his ROM's and is located in this thread...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1077180

Patch can be downloaded here:http://www.multiupload.com/ABYHAEMEM5

Second, and not as big of a deal is the the animation. It is sort of jerky. If you open the sense weather app, the same animation is used, and it is perfectly smooth, so I don't think it is a lack of processor/video.

I've seen this on all the ROM's I have tried for the Inc1 that have the Sense live weather wallpaper included. I'm using it on my Inc2, and works perfectly.

Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwthor20:
Another note on the animation. It only runs for a couple of seconds, then stops on an image. I would be perfectly happy with no animation, only the image.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehe12:
I believe that the IMEI of your phone has been blocked by Orange. This might be because your phone has been reported as stolen or damaged. You should go and talk to Orange and ask them to unblock it. Otherwise your phone will not be usable in this country.

Some scumbags do this on purpose so that they can claim phone insurance...
