I agree hamdir. Ville is ok, but if you look at the specs from that leak, it isn't much of an improvement to begin with. To me it's the same as Sensation XL. I have it and to be honest, I see absolutely no difference between it and DHD. Yes the screen is better and yes it has a bit more juice in it, but really no major difference at all. Edge on the other hand I see as a device that I might possibly keep for a very long time considering it will most likely be quad core and I've read somewhere that camera will be 10mpx.

The thing that really bothers me is that phones are generally getting bigger and I really wouldn't like to carry a 5' phone on me.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes it seems once google released the galaxy nexus, 4.7 inch suddenly became the new standard, i tried the sensation XL and its really big for me, 4.3 was the max im comfortable with

i think sony has done well with offering the same basic specs on both the Xperia S and Ion with only the looks and screen size as difference, this we way the users have the choice

right now between the ville and edge, im forced to pick the edge despite my problem with 4.7inch
[HTC One X] djolebih:
Again I agree. Nothing against Ville really, but Edge sounds like a more mature phone in all aspects. I have given it a good thought and frankly, compared to Edge, I think Ville will be a waste of money. I will however buy both for comparison purposes, but I think I already know who the winner will be.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
your rich? you have the XL and buying both new upcoming ones? :D

i just bought my wife the classic sensation used and will be buying the Edge can't afford more :rolleyes:

[HTC One X] djolebih:
Not like filthy rich lol, but I have cash for these things. I'm a tech addict so whatever is out new I gotta have it. It's not really an issue with money it's more of a principle. I got my fiancee Rhyme and she loves it.
[HTC One X] marsdta:
I agree on phones getting to large. Me personally I liked the sensations size. It felt better in my hand than my inspire(us dhd). If we could get a quad core in the size of the ville I'm sold.

One thing to take note is that though the galaxy nexus has a huge screen it got rid of the capacitive buttons so its not really that much larger, than current phones.

As too which phone ill get, I would want quad core but never used tegra devices so still on the fence. Either way I'm going HTC, and hopefully us here in the US don't have to wait long after you guys.

For now my inspire running ics can honestly keep up for another year if I needed to wait it out
[HTC One X] djolebih:
That's exactly what I'm thinking. 4.3in was perfectly fine for a phone. The way it's moving atm, half way through the year, we're going to have phones that really are mini tablets and then what..

As for Tegra, I'm using Motorola Xoom and it's actually really really good.
[HTC One X] marsdta:
Hopefully manufacturer don't go crazy and stop making phone size phones lol.

I haven't really played with a tegra device to make any judgement. My only, though very limited, experience with it is on my sisters g2x. And compared to our dhd, I was not impressed. But maybe this quad core will be.

My one caveat with the ville after relooking at the specs is the battery still seems to small. And that's comparing to our measly battery. I'm willing to sacrifice an extra few mm, to get a bigger battery. Looking at the razr maxx, it not that much bigger than the original and it has 3300mah battery! That more than double ours and about same thickness as ours I believe
[HTC One X] djolebih:
Yeah but Motorola is working with the Aliens according to RCVR short series.. :D

Hahah.. Had to put it here.
[HTC One X] stumpyz9:
if i where to have to pick a sucessor to the desire hd i dont really think it would be any of the ones you listed, i think htc has something special in store for us. but i can say that i doubt it will be the edge, yes a quad core is nice but not a tegra one. coming back to the dhd from an atrix i can say the lack of drivers/source for the cpu or whatever it was really made development suck. you are very limited at what can be made, unless nvidia decides to release the stuff. and the ville seems very nice except i think a true sucessor will have better specs.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes i already had my worries about tegra, but i didn't know they don't share their sources? devices builders are bound by law to release the kernel source along with its drivers

moreover you have to remember HTC devices have a much wider support in XDA then any other brand, for example check the xperia ARC forums despite having snapdragon 2 the support is limited

finally a history reminder XDA developers was founded to support the O2 XDA devices made by HTC which had an Nvidia Goforce GPU ;)

if anything it might be warm come back to nvidia
[HTC One X] zelendel:
The kernel yes has to have the source released but driver source has never been released. One of the main reasons that the AOSP drivers are lacking compared to the stock drivers. Take BT for example stock based rom's use a different driver then the AOSP rom's. Same for the radio, screen, camera ect.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
i found more details about the Edge screen and thickness here:

http://androidcommunity.com/more-htc-edge-details-nfc-8-8mm-and-sense-4-0-20111108/

so the screen should hopefully be a quality one similar to the XL

Please help me with following since I read a lot and bit confused

1) Can I proceed with installing a custom rom, without flashing radio (I have proper signal, and remaining) ?

2) Is a downgrade necessary to root the phone since my build is 2.37.720.3

3) I have summarised the following , Please let me know right or wrong

a) Follow a rooting guide

b) root phone without flashing radio

c) download custom rom

d) flash custom rom

?

4) do custom roms have continuous auto focus for camera ?

5) will too many messages and stuff on memory card affect performace on stock roms ?

I would appreciate if some one couse spend 2-3 min to reply :)

I have gone through many thread regarding rooting, and had just few doubts above, hence the thread
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] user30:
radio flashing is not necessary for installing a new custom ROM

there are some good guides available along with some tools for rooting, follow them properly. once you root and able to go to the recovery mode, then you are free to install the ROMS that you want, no need of radio flash, unless you want to experiment with it. but avoid it at this stage.

You can try some camera appls if not happy with custom ROM camera apps.

Hey happy people out there!

I hope you are doing well. Since January 29th I have got a S2 phone which is almost brilliant. It is worth the money - definitely.

Unfortunately my phone is running on 2.3.4 and there is no update available in Kies.

I would like to update because people say that the battery management is much better on 2.3.5

My phone specifications:

PDA: I9100XWKI4

PHONE: I9100XXKI1

CSC: I9100DBTKH1

Build Info: 14. Sep. 2011 KST 2011

I was searching the last two days to find the appropriate update but there are so many different types of firmwares that I am not sure which one is the right for my phone. So that I need advice of some professional people.

So thanks in advance and all the best!!

jje!

Thanks for your fast response! Really nice!

That means I can install every 2.3.5 update but I have to take care of the country code?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nyssa1104:
Or even 2.3.6 ;) and yes
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I had XWKE7 (UK), which is 2.3.3 when I bought the phone, and a few months ago, I updated to XXKI3 (Poland), which is 2.3.5.

I am in the US.

So it MAY make a difference, but probably won't.

EDIT: What I meant was, it MAY make a difference what country firmware you flash, but it may not. Some have reported that flashing a firmware that includes modems specific to one country, can result in signal issues if you are in a different country, because some modems are better suited for the particular frequencies in use in specific countries. That said, if you flash a firmware for a different country, then have signal issues, you can just look at the modem thread and flash modems more suited for your country to "fix" your signal issues.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Multiupload has been shut down permanently.

That looks like one of Intratech's "frankenstein" packages. You'll probably not be able to find anywhere that particular package with that combination of PDA, (XXKI4) Modem, (XXKI4) and CSC. (XEUKH2)

However, I9100XWKI4, which has PDA XWKI4, modem XXKI1, and CSC XEUKH2, is available on both samfirmware.com, and skywanker.net.

I don't really understand why wouldn't you just upgrade to the last 2.3.6

XWLA4 that is. You will lose nothing and your phone will run better.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You are WAY overcomplicating things.

Do not use .pit or repartition unless you absolutely have to, and know what you you are doing.

Put the one .tar file in the PDA section, and flash. Done. Use the one victorator linked above. It will work, and is a one file package. (search the linked page for "XWLA4")

If you used a 3 part file before, that's fine. You don't NEED to use a 3 part file again to re-flash. The singular .tar file will contain all the components you need.

EDIT: Actually, above you said:

So the PDA XWKI4, did you download it from samfirmware.com, or skywanker.net? If so, that is a 1 part file, and will contain the CSC and modem within it. Just put that in PDA and flash. Leave everything else blank.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmad12:
just flashed with GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWKI4_I9100XEUKH2_I9100XXKI1.tar.md5

and phone does not boot ??? why does it not boot every time i re flash? works fine when i flash back to XXKL1 using 3 files ?

and i have downloaded files from both the above sites including separate crc
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
What do you mean it does not boot? Does it get stuck on the boot screen? Try a full wipe after the flash. You will lose all data, but more often then not, it will boot after this.

You meant CSC, not crc, right?

And take a look at the file name "I9100_XEU_I9100XWKI4_I9100XEUKH2_I9100XXKI1.tar.md5". If you notice, it has "I9100XWKI4" (PDA), "I9100XEUKH2" (CSC), and "I9100XXKI1" (modem) all in the filename.

EDIT: maybe you should just go here.

I've read the thread about unlocking Omnia 7 posted buy some guy, but the only thing I did find is pre-nodo..

how does that work?

and can I do the pre-nodo if I need to do that to unlock my phone?

I got my phone with theese updates from the day I bought it and I did never update it.

Could someone tell me if I can unlock it and how I can do it please...

What I know about my phone is that it seems I can root/jailbreak it.

I can enter Download mode, and I also can use the WindowBreak thing posted on Devs section.

but I cant post on that forum due to lack of posts, so thats why I'm posting hear and I'm sorry for that.

The only thing I want from this phone is to unlock it beacuse it is locked to Three Sweden, and I want to give it to my father beacuse I use Samsung Galaxy S2.

And again I'm sorry if this thread allready exist but I could not find anything on how to do it..

[Omnia 7 General] gatt088:
root, jailbreack, windowbreack and anything similar unlock ONLY the possibility to install unsigned .xap and homebrew apps (and something other), but NOT the network lock...

google it, you have to purchase the unlock code by the company, as I made many times with t-mobile usa (and i'm in Italy)... i don't know if there is another procedure but you can google it again :)

ahh okej, yea i did search well it was not so expensive at all if i buy from us :D thnx anyway mate
[Omnia 7 General] mebula999:
If you are bothered to go into the hassle you could developer unlock the phone (with windowbreak, you may also need to interop unlock it). Then you can install a registry editor. Using that you can access the MobileOperator string which if you change to 000-88 will make your phone carrier unbranded. You will probably still have a three bootup screen however.

Your best bet is to boot into recovery mode from fastboot usb mode using the following command:

Using this method, the boot partition should be unlocked in recovery and you can flash the kernel.

Flash the boot.img via fastboot then you need to copy / push the corresponding bcm4329.ko file for the kernel into /system/lib/modules/ i just do it via a file manager with superuser. Job done!

Or there is a ICSQuattroDrivers.zip file containing the wifi driver that you flash via recovery. Not sure where I found it as I'm using the latest Tiamat now, it's rather nice.

No problems playing 720p mkvs. Heck I can even play 10-bit 720p anime files using MX Player in SW mode.

A quick word of warning.....

A new app has appeared on the market using the Gnote as a 'cover pic'.

https://market.android.com/details?id=smart.cover&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInNtYXJ0LmNvdmVyIl0

Similar to the 'smart screen off' app that is supposed to work with the proximity sensor to turn off the screen. It claims to work with the Gnote flip cover but I can assure you it doesn't. It has the same problem as the other screen off proximity apps in that it works if you put your finger over the sensor but not with the Gnote flip cover.

Just a 'heads up' for anyone thinking of buying...
