I heard on a video a girl saying the still pictures got better quality in the dark with the sgs ii lol, it made no sense to me but she seemed pretty convinced xD
[HTC Amaze 4G] Trevorhimself:
Don't forget the audio quality, music quality to be specific! Headphones with either SRS or EQ enabled is top quality for any phone. I'm using my Nexus for now, still have my Amaze and I can say music and camera apps for the Amaze make great purchase points!

With fauxs kernal and beastmod.... No need for another battery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Actually, I agree. The quality of the audio is noticeably better than my old phone. Another big perk, listening to poweramp on this phone doesn't seem to kill battery like it used to on my vibrant.. very impressed.

I never saw a good description of what is different about fauxes kernel, or if the ones included with roms are stock.. I know fauxes allows oc, but I haven't been interested enough to look into it more than that. If I get better battery maybe I'll give it a go, though I'm pretty happy thus far.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xsteven77x:
The downside would be if you are a crack flasher then this phone is not for you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Not true, copy the battery stats file before flashing, flash, put back old file.. problem solved. Any rom can include a script that does this as part of the flashing of the rom, but still easy enough to do yourself.
[HTC Amaze 4G] joshnichols189:
He was saying there aren't a lot of roms haha.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Turboboxer:
It also under volts AKA saves power consumption at times when phone is not being used or just tweaked to consume less even in use.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xsteven77x:
What does that have to do with being addicted to flashing roms.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I probably misread it, I think I was pretty tired when I replied..
[HTC Amaze 4G] jjlean:
Only downside is the flash bleeds into night pictures. Have to tape it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
I am sure that this is just a dumb Noob question but I cannot figure it out. Sometimes when I need to enter text in an app, I get a keyboard that shows only text characters. If I need something like an @ or even a ".", I have to access that part of the keyboard. When entering email address this can be a pain.

Other times, for no reason that is apparent to me, I get a more functional keyboard that includes things like @ and .com along with some other useful characters.

Why do I get different keyboards from time to time? Is there any way to lock in the more useful keyboard that includes the often used characters or phrases?

Thanks in advance.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
so i noticed for the last two days my 4g and 3g are going out not just a couple seconds either it for a good amount of time 10 to 15 minutes at a time anyone have a idea why this is or how to reslove this called verizon they don't have any outages at all worked fine for the previous 2 to 3 weeks that i had the phone with no issues what so ever...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] neckbonest:
what system and rom are you on ?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
100 percent stock. Havent rooted yet
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kerow:
Im having the same issue all stock as well with the latest update
[Motorola Droid Bionic] neckbonest:
you can root and try 901 update. it seems to be a more stable radio
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
Not. Confident enough with a. Locked bootloader and have. To do a. Bit more research before crossing that bridge
[Motorola Droid Bionic] neckbonest:
The locked bootloader isn't really a problem. You can still do a lot of stuff. We have some awesome roms,themes and hacks along with a great community with lots of helpful people
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sqwaller:
I can not say this will help you, but it helped me with the same problem, this is a fix I found on rootzwiki i believe, i forget the authors name but the fix is not mine and it is simple and gives me good connection for about 1-3 weeks before i have to do it again.

turn off your phone, pull battery, and sim card, replace battery and turn phone back on and let it boot up, turn phone off and replace sim card, turn phone backup, that is it. What I have read is that this refreshes your sim connection to Verizon, I have no idea if this is the case or not.

I did also find that when I activated an old phone to update some software in it and then tried to reactivate my Bionic the web site did not let me activate my sim card with the numbers it had on the card itself, so I called up Verizon and jumped through some hoops and they activated my sim card and had very good data connection after that for about a month. Just a reminder if you are rooted don't tell them that.

Hope this helps a bit.

My data still is not %100 but getting much closer when I pop the sim card in and out.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] junksecret:
So what else is new.....

I am in Los Angeles, an area blanketed with 4G. I have a solid 4G connection at home 99.5% of the time. My first 4G phone was a Samsung Droid Charge and while I liked it I often found in my travels that I would have 0 connectivity and all my 3G friends would be surfing along just fine.

I thought it was my device and ended up going through 5 Charges and now Verizon has given me a Bionic and guess what, exact same performance (well, in terms of connectivity). I find it hard to believe that 6 phones by 2 manufacturers exhibit the same problem so concluded it had something to do with the geography of my travels and the associated towers and hand-offs.

I then read, and totally believe THIS
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
Thanks that worked great and you last posted good to know!!!! :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] swc2001:
Well I am on the. 901 update and on the same day I got a new sim card. And my connection was completely solid..... for two days. After that the drops were as bad as ever. I WOULD SAY AT LEAST 50% so I am trying this right now well I did already actually. IT HAS JUST DROPPED ME WHILE WRITING THIS. However it did not last long because its already back. I dunno I am just gettin tired of it. Maybe I should have spent the extra money to get the rezound. I am. Just frusterated. I really appreciate this idea. I will keep trying it for a while.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] technomaje:
Have had mine for close to two weeks. Data drops weren't a problem until a day or two in. Figured out that at least for me, it was my own doing. Some of you are probably the same, while others are something different.

Settings>Data & Battery Manager>Battery Mode>

From here you have several options. I had set mine up on custom one night, while half asleep, laying in the bed, playing with my new phone.

This morning it dawned on me, after thinking that it seemed a lot like Juice Defender acts when it takes a while to register data again. I went back in and changed it from a custom profile, to Performance Mode. Voila....

All day long and not single data drop.

Hope this helps some of you.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Nicelysedated:
I have had 1, 5 second drop since updating to .901. I would urge anyone that is having serious data drop issues to try it. It is a signed update and is supported by Verizon and Motorola. They can't void your warranty or anything for updating to it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
How would go about. 901 do I gave to root anyway to push this to phone without root

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
Just talked to a Sprint Customer Service Rep. and he said no LTE.

Me: I heard sprint is getting LTE mid 2012 and my contract is up Jan 2013. I wanted to know if i can get an early upgrade which would help with my decision of staying on sprint or not.

CSR:Okay, so the upgrade isn't exactly to LTE, but it is actually just switching the entire system to a digital, purely IP based system.

Your phone will still be able to take advantage of this upgrade.

It's going to provide better coverage and faster signals, but your phone will be compatible with it.

It may be even earlier than mid 2012 by the way. The plans are in work to be finished by the first quarter of 2012 or just a little after that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
And you believe a stupid ass CSR ...

most of them can barely speak English ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
The all knowing random Sprint CSR strikes again. You should probably run this by a Radioshack sales associate just to be safe.

...yeah, I'm gunna go with the industry rumblings I hear on XDA and tech blogs WAY before I listen to any random CSR, store manager, sales associate or forum post.

nothing personal.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dulanic:
I'm pretty sure a bold face lie to investors is a no no lol.... Who to believe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
The fact that he is flat out wrong on the LTE claim only underscores how anything that isn't some overly technical blabber designed to confuse the average consumer is also complete lies....

"Don't worry, it's not that thing I'm not familiar with but it's something else with the modulation matrix electro router decoupler technology THAT IS ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH THE PHONE THAT CAME OUT LAST YEAR BECAUSE I KNOW YOU WOULD BE FURIOUS IF I TOLD YOU THE TRUTH THAT IT WONT BE COMPATIBLE EVEN THOUGH I DONT KNOW THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE"

or something like that, lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
It does make sense. How many times have we on the forums over hyped a superphone and been let down... Exactly!

Heres what ive gathered about the IP move.

The most important characteristics of this air-interface are:

Higher peak data rates and spectral efficiency and lower latency:

Transmission bandwidth ranges from 1.25 MHz to 20 MHz;

Peak data rates of up to 280 Mbps over 20 MHz on the downlink;

Over 250 VoIP users can be supported on a 5 MHz FDD system;

Edge-of-cell bit rates are augmented by the use of dynamic frequency re-use schemes;

Support for a raft of peak rate and capacity improving multi-antenna technologies (MIMO, SDMA) is included.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
Sounds good, you forgot LTE. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cnstarz:
please, entertain me. exactly how many times has a sprint press release regarding any phone or their network not been accurate?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
The LTE move can be as hyped as Sprint's Charging the 1% article. stuff like this happens all the time. I wont believe anything till it happens. Lol 4G is a myth in my area.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
It existing may be a myth to you, but their current 4G infrastructure being WiMax is fact. Tough **** for you and me. I have 4G all over town but I can't get it in my apartment, at work or in my truck if I roll my windows up...god forbid there is a stiff breeze...but it's real.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gotmilk702:
This is simply absurd. Yes backhaul improvements may improve 3G performance, but its still EVDO which is NOT IP-based.

You know now that you say this it reminds me that my ex girlfriends step father said that he heard from his 10 year olds sons friend that heard sprint was getting rid of unlimited from his moms loser boyfriend while he was beating it to pictures from his family picture album.

Sprint is deploying LTE in addition to enhancements to 3G and 2G (1x). Google search "network vision" or simply look at the several press releases from this week announcing the first LTE markets.

Nice the thing i dont get if they have lte on before fcc aprove and sprint pulling off lte i dont get it can anyone explain this to me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
I don't care what they push out or what the hell they call it. Just get us better connectivity speeds & coverage. Does it really matter?

As long as Sprint is working on ways to improve Mbps UL/DL speeds & improve coverage they can use & call it whatever they want. After all that's the only thing I'm concerned about.

My biggest gripe though is being charged for so called technology improvements when it's not even available in my area. Some of you are fortunate enough to have access to such improvements and on average pay the same rates as I do. Now that really blows.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Thanks for the link. It states that my area is working on 1 voice upgrade & 1 data upgrade within the next 6 months. The nearest city next to me (about 20-25 miles away) is getting 2 data capacity upgrades. I sure hope so.

i think they updated the tower near me unless my iphone is getting better 3g speeds than my touch lol.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Actually, there is a nugget of truth in the misguided CSR's ramblings.

Part of network vision, when it's all said and done, is using higher spectrum LTE in metro areas for voice coverage to help spread out congestion. You'll hear the sprint exec make mention of this if you go back and listen to the whole webinar when sprint laid out the full network vision plan. It coincides with the tiered spectrum diagram of their multi modal towers...those closest to the towers will be able to utilize the highest frequencies for more than just LTE data.

This is, of course, dependant on having an LTE phone, which the CSR is way off base on.

Sprint already owns the licenses to use the spectrum. This is not a situation like LightSquared with worries over interference with GPS. The adjacent bands are used by Sprint's 3G service and cell phones are already designed with the proper filters to avoid any interference.

The cities have already been anounced 10 to start they will begin some time in june or 3rd quarter. Although the fly in the ointment is Lightsquared who the feds could kill. With the signing of the new anti terrorist act the congress must evaluate any potential threat to military gps interference so the fcc does their thing then the dept of homeland defense passes the info to go before congress. This is what puts the kibaush on Lightsquareds plans not a bunch of happy campers in their camps right now.

Even though i am very satisfied with my DS i am considering getting a new dual core phone. Do you recommend the Atrix or should i wait for some new phones? How is the ICS development going on? All in all i have the impression the Atrix is a rock solid phone. Thx in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jibraldor:
Only you can answer this question.

1. Try them both out.

2. See what suits you best as you might spend a very long time with it.

3. Check things like RAM, Processor speed, OTA updates from the company as these are important.

4. ICS might not be available on Atrix but CM9 will be -but it will run the kernels of Gingerbread/CM7.

5. The choice is yours. Listen to your heart, use the force and please read other similar threads (about choosing between other phones vs Atrix) before posting a thread. I hope i don't sound rude here, it's not my intention.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acruxksa:
I definitely like my atrix and don't plan to upgrade until we see the quad core phones. At this time, I wouldn't switch to an atrix from the HTC Desire S if it meant extending my cellular contract.

I'm not sure how cellular companies work in the EU though, so If you don't have to worry about a contract extension and the atrix is reasonably priced I would go for it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95rr900:
