Dont like apple patenting every little thing too. smaller companies wont be able to rise up that way. Apple mainly interests the money even though they do have a good customers support.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NIK516:
Your opinion is yours and you make a great point however i dont see see it your way.

If apple did nothing innovative or good then there would not be so many people using the device and loving that device.

And to call anyone that buys or ownes an iPhone and isheep is narrow minded and a fan boy.

Many people think the iPhone is a great device, not the best but the best for them.

And apple out source there marketing just like other company's, all your saying is other company's have millions of employees but are missing steve jobs lol.

Look now that Steve jobs is gone the iPhone is dead, if apple did not bring out such a good camera on the iPhone 4 would you think the gs2 would have needed to use such a good camera?

Apple pushed the boundaries and that pushed android and the customers won.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] realfelix:
haha i smiled at that article neo :D

i've been reading alot through the 'babybash' between iSuck phones and Android phones(iOS vs Android), and I could 'feel' how DUMB people are who own the iphone. I read questions like: Why do you own an iphone? and the response was: I don't know, just going with the majority. what the ****? that makes no sense to me .. all those iSheeps are making me sick seriously, even at school i'm haunted by those fanboys. a friend of mine owns an iphone 4S and hes always laughing at my xperia arc S because its so ugly.. LOL come on, whats sexier? Arc or iphone? L0L.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
No one's saying the iPhone is a bad quality phone, anyone who does is a blind fan boy.

My beef is not with iPhone, it's with Apple itself and their philosophies. I have never owned their products, nor will I ever because of that. Sadly most people don't really care - they just want their shiny toy and listen to whatever Apple tells them is the truth.

They see their products as a privilege, that the user should be thankful to be allowed by the grace of Apple to be able to pay them and use it.

They have no shame in patenting what majority of people that can apply critical thinking believe shouldn't be patent-able - then suing with it.

And no, I don't believe everyone who uses an iPhone is an iSheep - there are plenty of sheeps on the android (and every other brand) side as well.

Also...

This is laughable, I sold to someone my Touchpad since I didn't really have a use for it and I offered to load android on it for him if he wanted, guess what his response was... "What is that anyway?" and guess what he was using? an Iphone because that was in his email signature. He got the touchpad for his little kid so that his son wouldn't keep playing with his iPad.

You don't realize that most of the iSheeps don't even really know Android, they just hear from other iSheeps that's it's just plastic junk that crashes a lot and "fragmented". And yes there are people who really know tech and still choose iPhone, for which I have no issues with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
So its ok that Apple patents and sue for something they never invented, because they innovate?

That's as narrow minded as the sheeple.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wirelessgirl:
Google should sue Apple for using the "slide down notification bar". Not sure if Google has already filed a suit but cleary Apple ripped that off of Google.

Don't forget large black bezel and centered screen. Next Apple patent: battery and signal meters in status bar, and virtual keyboard.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zacisblack:
This is actually the complete list of suggestions that Apple gave to Samsung last month.

“On the smartphone side of things, the following is a list of some of the alternative design options Apple felt Samsung should have looked into further:

-Front surface that isn’t black.

-Overall shape that isn’t rectangular, or doesn’t have rounded corners.

-Display screens that aren’t centered on the front face and have substantial lateral borders.

-Non-horizontal speaker slots.

-Front surfaces with substantial adornment.

-No front bezel at all.

As for tablets, Apple identified a similar list of alternative designs available to Samsung:

-Overall shape that isn’t rectangular, or doesn’t have rounded corners.

-Thick frames rather than a thin rim around the front surface.

-Front surface that isn’t entirely flat.

-Profiles that aren’t thin.

-Cluttered appearance.”
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Frosty666:
I really can't wait until Apple go after Google over some ridiculous patent, because as soon as that happens Google will drop the M-Bomb on them and smack them down into oblivion. A Motorola nuke of patents, as it were. Motorola hold patents for practically everything related to phone telecommunication protocols. I read an article recently that they were suing Apple in Germany over GPRS. And if Apple aren't allowed use such an integral protocol like GPRS... Well, we can all see where that's going.

On that day, there will be a smile on my face.

You know what if you can't beat them you might as well join them.

Android is the best no matter who you are or what you use your phone for baaa, and all the haters that think all android devices are plastic and never crash and are fragmented should check out the gs2 forums and read about the great build quality and how there are no battery drain issues and to go on the galaxy nexus forum and read about Samsung own gorilla glass. Baaa ba

And apple is so immoral! How dare they act like any large business they should forget about profits and baaaa open there design studio to competitors and be one big happy family.

I can't stand iPhone trolls, owe and I told my friend that Android was the best and he said its OK but I like my iPhone. Haaaa I don't get it why lolll owe I'm going to stand in a narrow doorway now and block my ears to what others are saying

there are only so many iphone users bcuz apple did a great job with advertising and pushed somehow. my opinion is that they steal innovations and just modify them. that is easier then getting innovations themselves . if you feel differently than thats it.

[Intercept General] FatalIll:
My fathers phone has been making a strange noise, and we narrowed it down to it only happening cell service is dropping/coming on. When the phone starts, if you toggle airplane mode, if you walk into a store, certain parts of the house...

According to Samsungs help I'm supposed to have a "Mobile Networks" option under "Wireless and networks" but I dont. I have Airplane, Wifi, Bluetooth, VPN. Thats it.

If anyone could enlighten me to how to shut the damn noise off I'd be a happy guy.
[Intercept General] penguinrepair:
not sure which rom your running, but, in 2.2.2 go to settings/sound/silent mode or hold the volume-down button till it vibrates...

not really many other options to change your location notifier after the update to silence the roaming notification other than a custom rom

[Samsung Infuse 4G] rak007:
So i received my new Infuse just today and while removing the SIM card, the two pins out of the three inside, under the housing (just outside i can see 6 pins), has to be broken / bent. It had come out of the housing on the other side (where 6 pins can be seen).

In order to put them back in place, i had to use a tweezer to bend the housing bit up so i can push those 2 pins back in place.

After this inserted my non AT&T SIM card and unlocked the phone. Then removed the SIM card and tried another SIM and it said there is no SIM.

Again i put my old SIM which worked and for that too it said there is no SIM.

I think the damage is done and i am so so angry on myself :mad:

Is there absolutely any hope left for me ?

Is this thing repairable ??
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rak007:
The small pin has come out so yes the SIM slot is officially bust now.

What hope do i have ??

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepash:
is it nandroid backup ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
I think there are two kinds of backups- yaffs and ext3/4 images. I think most of the more recent recovery versions have switched to ext3/4 or tar.

Overall, the procedure would be to extract the data and then pack it into a zip.

The yaffs images can be extracted using unyaffs- google for the source. The ext3/4 images can be mounted using the loop option "mount -o loop path/to/image path/to/mountpoint"

At this point, you'll have the extracted image on your computer. Arrange it into a zip and be sure to update the updater-script. You will most likely have to fix some of the permissions, which you can see from another updater-script or look at the running rom. I'm not sure if you can rely on the permissions from the yaff/loop image.

This is a pretty high level overview- you'll have to fill in the details.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
That seems a bit over my head, maybe in time I'll be able to do it.

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Why do you need to convert the backups into flashable zips?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
There's some icon png files I want to change, they way I do it is different.

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

........Death before dishonor........
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
Is it something that you can push with adb? If you are only changing a few files, then adb push will be fine.

You could extract them from a backup files with the unyaffs or mount commands I listed above.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
Using adb is possible, but I'm not so good with it. I have an idea of what the command would be. I just prefer being able to see the outcome my self, do I can verify it.

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

........Death before dishonor........
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
try this:

before:

adb shell ls -l /path/to/your/target

push:

adb push /your/files/on/your/computer /target/on/your/phone

after:

adb shell ls -l /path/to/your/target

this will show you size and creation date changes so you can verify that it worked.

If you are really paranoid, you can use "adb shell md5sum /path/to/your/target" instead to verify the md5 hash. You have to have the md5sum binary installed- I think it's usually installed via busybox.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
I'll keep that in mind, but there's still one issue. I need to knew the exact file name, the main icon.png file differs per apk

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

........Death before dishonor........
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
got it- you're trying to change the icons for the apks. I don't know much about theming, but you might be able to use a script to update the apk/zip- something like zip -u email.apk /res/blah/mdpi/icon.png

Although I'm not 100% sure that you can update zips in the rom. I think some versions of busybox/toolbox are capable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Archangel:
Normally I do it though 7zip,with a ROM that I already have on my sdcard. That why I wanted to create a flashable from a back up. I could try adb though

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

[Galaxy S II General] mobs84:
Many of my friends who bought the 9100G version complained that whatever bechmarks they run, the CPU never ran @ the advertised 1.2 Ghz. Here is the reason why: 9100G Stock CPU is underclocked to run@ 1008Mhz, if you root and use VC, it gives you option to clock the CPU @ 1.2Ghz. Wonder why Samsung has taken this move to underclock the CPU and advertise the phone as 1.2Ghz in the market. Is this just battery backup or potential stability issues with the inferiors OMAP CPU compared to Exynos?

As far as I know ti omap 4460 (galaxy nexus) is the only that give 1.2 ghz and up to 1.5 ghz.

Thank you guys so much for posting these helpful links, I've been looking all over trying to find a decent price for front white digitizer. People on ebay are selling it for 100 bucks and up. I don't think it should cost that much if the black ones are about 40-50.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mattdm:
That's exactly what will happen. You have new phone syndrome. I did too, when I first got my Galaxy S2. Except that I, unlike you, was running stock unrooted, and my battery life was more like 8 hours. I'm now running stock rooted with Entropy's kernel, plus I don't use my phone as much, and I get between 15 and 20 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Yeah...with almost 4 hours screen on, and mostly on cell data (assumption based on your 2.x hours of wifi on) that isn't too horrible. Your total awake time is about an hour more than screen on, so assuming you had phone calls, music playing, or some other screen off background task to account for some of that, you're doing pretty good...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] lunercrab:
LOL so I'm guessing the best way to really conserve battery is to keep the screen off. Just outta curiousity (which I will test tonight after full charge) what is an acceptable drop rate when phone is fully asleep for say 8 hours or so. Like what 1-2% an hour?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
I think the best I have seen reported is 0.5% per hour. Mine on wifi has been as good as about 0.8% per hour, but usually a little over 1%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
2%/hour idle drain I consider bad - that's why I haven't released a kernel since 1/2/2012 - I have a power management regression that pushes drain to a bit over 2%/hour when connected to wifi.

I strive for 0.5%/hour and get very close to that frequently when in a good signal area. In a weak signal area (like at my desk at work), it's around 1%/hour.

4.5%/hour or so is the idle drain you'll get if the phone is unable to enter deep sleep.
