[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingenious247:
I experienced the "dust under the screen" issue with the MT4G, which I loved, but the dust made me exchange the phone 5 times

I can tell you Samsung phones don't have that problem because they fuse the screen so nothing can get it.. a HUGE plus to me

The T-Mobile Galaxy S2 had been the best phone I have ever owned by far.. and the screen outclasses anything on the market IMO.. I've held my phone next to the iPhone 4S, both playing Cut the Rope, and it almost made my friend throw his phone because he was sure the iPhone had the best screen.. it wasn't even close, the colors, the blacks, everything was so much cleaner on the S2

You will hear complaints about every phone out there, including the S2, but I promise you won't be disappointed, I wouldn't trade this phone for the new Nexus, iPhone, nada

Galaxy S2 all the way.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohanguns:
Have you considered the Samsung Galaxy Note? I just got it one month ago - and I just think its a unique device - works really well as a phone and a tablet, which many people doubted, s pen with s memo allows me to scribble when I am feeling creative/have ideas which are not meant just for typing etc. I do hope they bring ICS to it, which is optimized and not slowed down. You could consider this as well. I know people have S2 and are happy with it, but somehow I thought Note would make the owner feel extra special :) Hope this helps?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guru Zeb:
No offence m8 but you really need to go and put some effort into this one yourself. Its kind of silly to ask people who you don't know and who don't know you to decide which phone is right for you.

You need to go google this sh*t.

get a list of the phones spec.

find 2-3 review of each one and read it all.

then once you have an idea of the difference.

Cross ref what you've found out with whats

1:Essential

2:important

3:Favoured

4:a bonus feature

Than it will become very clear which one is best for you.

Asking on a forum is just plain lazy, and likely to leave you open to other peoples all too common 'mine rewls' mentality, you need to answer this one yourself m8.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysig:
no offence m8 but i didnt have time to do any of that, usually i do research but i found out about the sale a day before it so thanks for advice broski.

i listed the phones i was interested in and thats about how much time i had is to check the specs on the phones available through tmobile. other than that i didnt have time to go around forums and dig through 1000s of BS useless posts to try to locate the defects and shortcomings of every phone...

but unfortunately i ended up not upgrading anyting cuz its not worth it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nevrlow:

the recent tmobile "promotion" was a big fail.

i went to the store and was told that there will be no change in my plan. and i get a the money back once i send the rebate.

to find out that i still have to pay full price for the phone over 20 month period...

that is not a damn promotion its a trick..

why the hell would anyone do that.

you get stuck with this company for 2 years AND you still have to pay full price on the phone.

i can walk in any day and buy that phone with my credit card instead and make payments on it and not have to be binded by 2 year contract...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guru Zeb:
lol .......... if you'd actually bothered to try it you'd have found everything in a couple of hours max!!!

Whats better spending some time solving your own procurement issues. After all you know what you need want and desire better than anyone else.

OR

Begging the opinions of other people who don't know you, and whos soundness of advice you have no idea about on a website.

Methinks your method indicates how committed to the venture you where, the outcome speaks volumes :p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysig:
cool thanks lol one person actually tried to help.

what did you not understand i didnt have time to do any research past what little searching i did...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guru Zeb:
ROFLOL ......... yeah but you had plenty of time to wait 5 days whilst you expected others to do your legwork for you :rolleyes:

Don't wanna make this personal but your just not getting it :rolleyes:

"One person helped"?? No m8 one person tossed you a bone ...... since you where begging, probably just bigging up whatever he owns. Everyone else's response (lack of, should tell you a lot about attitudes to posts like this. Where OP clearly states "I can't be arsed doing what i'd like you chumps to do for me".

Best advice you got was from me, your best at deciding what you need not someone else. Amazes me anyone is so lazy that they would rather take dubious advice from a forum than spend 2-3 hours educating themselves.

How old are you ......... seriously you a teen ???

Galaxy s 2 is good screen is great and lots of roms for it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzysig:
ROFLOL BRAH. because sale is over... dont need your help stop helping...

i was hoping that someone could throw some details about the phones i listed, you cant read good can you?.

your advice was not worth any more than a piece of doog poop on a sidewalk.

now that i had more time i did some more research and know more about the phones. but you obviously do not get it. and just have to have the last word even if its not relaed to the topic...

u know if soemone needs help quick i give them an answer and then we figure out if he was lazy or not...

i hope your car breaks down and you go and ask on some automotive forums for help and get same responce as you gave me "its your car you should know whats best for it BRAH!!!"

but maybe you still dont get it..

i found out about the sale a day before the sale. you follow?

i work all day.. still with me?

i was busy in teh evening and couldnt do much research. still there?

next day i was working as well and didnt have time to sit research on teh internets instead of working. after work i went to the tmobile store...

i asked if someone could give me a quick rundown of the common problems of the phones i listed... nothing more.

because i dont know how much clearer i can state my question.

"can anyone that knows more than me about the following phones give me a quick list of major defects "

anyway this thread can be deleted since it turned into useless thread.

EDIT:links up.

instructions:reboot into recovery and flash the patch. no wipe, no nothing.

http://www.mediafire.com/?xqpnh6bxu190pi1​

THIS THEME IS OF GABWERKZ. i have just modded some VERY small tweaks to get this look. IF YOU ARE USING THIS TWEAK/PATCH; please don't forget thank the actual person behind this theme (if you have not thanked him already :rolleyes::D lol

if you want to apply any kernel/mod/etc, be sure to flash the unpatch before & reboot. then boot into recovery and do whatever you want.

I am not responsibe if this bricks your phone.

it makes the pull down icons appear as in ICS. check the screenshots. temme if you like it and then i'll upload it (only if you all like it).

[LG Optimus Black] dxdiag32:
nice look

but will the centered clock cover the new notifications?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
It has statusbar_background2. When receiving a notification, it will show on that background completely shutting off statusbar. Then will go back to regular status bar background.

Only problem are notification icons, if you have too much, it will overlay on the centered time.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
guys am sorry for replying late....i had a major power fault in my area.

nevertheless, i have uploaded the patch and the unpatch. :)

Hi achyut and gabwerkz I have two question to you,

1.In zeus V3 I cant change back(blue to green) phone icons.I replace original phone.apk with 3b phone.apk but its same blue.I make wipe data and factory reset its same blue.Which file contains phone and call record icons?

2.My second question is in applications menu tab menu background.I want to change colur of this I marge it on attachment file.Which file is background?

Thanks.

[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
ask the pro master gabwerkz. hez da boss for theming round here.:D
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Don't know if this the proper thread about it but...

1. Try Contacts.apk.

2. tab_focus, tab_press, tab_selected. They are .9.PNG, you won't see them in full form cause they expand. In that case, that SQUARE image. Inside framework-res.apk.

They look like this.. see attachment..

And oh, they are just one image. That blue background is with the tab. See attachment to understand.

Indeed it isn't, but a MOD. As the zip is a complete theme, inside the apk is a modified xml.

Hello everyone,

The question I have is, I was wondering if it's possible to flash AHRD themes on top of Android Revolution HD 7.0.1 with HTC Sense 3.5, Based on 1.05.401.4 HTC Sensation XL

I would like to flash the new BlueHD for ARHD 6.3.x on top of Android Revolution HD 7.0.1 but wanted to know if there are going to be issues?

I have also installed Kernel 11.1 with 2-way recording support in conjunction with 7.0.1 now I just want to have BlueHD and I'm happy as apple pie.

If anyone knows of any issues or all is good would be greatly appreciated.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeitraffer:
There will most likely be errors since 6.xx was running Sense 3.0 while 7.xx is having Sense 3.5.

Make a nandroid backup via CWM and try it out, only then you can be sure.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
I personally prefer the stock browser, but have had good experiences with Dolphin HD (didn't know about the data collection concerns). I'm also currently using the new Chrome beta, and yeah it has some issues that need ironing out, but it's VERY nice. I'm a desktop Chrome user and sync bookmarks between PCs, so it's great that I can finally do that in my mobile browser as well. (Firefox also offers this functionality, but I don't like Firefox.)

I use Dolphin HD for my main browsing (only because it's the first one I used and has been pretty stable). I've tried Opera, Firefox, and even Chrome. But for just speed, I find Dolphin Mini to be best. Apparently it uses similar tech to Opera with regards to caching/compressing.

Just sold my ibeats for $75 today. I like the base and quality of the earphones but couldn't stand the cheap flimsy cord and weak highs and mids. I'm looking for another set of earphones and am down to four. I would like audio controls on the cord but it's not a necessity since I prefer sound quality over audio controls any day of the week. Which set do you prefer and why? Your comments would be greatly appreciated and really helpful. If you have another set of earphones in mind, well please feel free to post a comment about the. Thanks!

[HTC Rezound] WasabiWa83:
I'd recommend these SOUL by Ludacris SL150CB for the perfect sound quality. I'm amazed by how clean these sound. They are more expensive than those you're looking at and they're over-ear. Just a friendly suggestion. Plus they have in-line controls with a mic. (They actually come with 2 cables, one with the in-line and one without it).

As for in-ear, I haven't used any of those, but would recommend the Bose based on past experience with their products. Generally they just have a cleaner sound. I might recommend the SOUL in-ear headset also. I'm not sure if they have the in-line control, but they should have some with it. The headphones I have are very clean sounding with just the right amount of bass for everything. Just a thought :D
[HTC Rezound] tbaker077:
If you are lucky you can still find Klipsch X5 for under $100 still, bass is clear with instrument that is better than the others listed here. Its actually a $225+ iem that are on sale for under $100 now. The S4 is a bit sibilant vs the others, but bass production is solid for the price.

I would also say really take a look at the Monster Turbine line, may not be as flashy or what not as the Beats, but they sound better for the same price as the Beats(after all Monster is the company that made the Beats line). Trust me these are way better than the iBeats and the Beats by Dre, at the same price.

For all things headphones - http://www.head-fi.org/

I should sell mine too, I have a pair of Etymotic ER-4's I've been using for a couple years now.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
I had the Shure SE215, and sold them, I thought the sound was very weak. I DO however have the Shure SE530s and these are the best in-ear phones in existance, bar none!! Assuming you're not in the market for $350-$400 earbuds, however, for ~ $75 (they were $55 when I got them) the klipsch s4s sound fantastic. I compared them against the bose, and thought they (the klipsch) sounded much better. ymmv
[HTC Rezound] Shady Gambino:
If sound quality is more important to you than bass, I go with the Etymotic MC2s. They include a mic and volume controls. I owned the Klipsch Image S4, and while they were good, they were a bit heavy on the bass. Etymotics are cleaner with less bass distortion.
[HTC Rezound] Rogueharvest:
My vote for the best over the ear headphones goes to V-Moda Crossfade. Nearly half the price of Beats and the sound is amazing. Plus they come in a variety of colors to satisfy whatever vibe your going for.
[HTC Rezound] TB13:
My vote goes here too. The Crossfade LP can be found for a little over $100 on eBay and sound great. They also have amazing build quality and look frekin sick. Check them out, you won't be disappointed if you buy a pair. ;)
[HTC Rezound] quikfinger00:
Well i appreciate everybody's input. Those all seem like good pics but i ended up going with the bose mie2 and etymotic research hf5. Im going to do an extensive test on both and return the one that i dont want. Im leaning more towards the etymotics though due to its earbud inserts.

Well, I guess this is a very ymmv thing. Based on your recommendation, and the excellent reviews the Triplefis get, I ordered a pair and lived them a week. I don't care for them, thought the bass was boomy and the imaging not as good as the 530s, so I returned them. I know all about requiring a good seal with earbuds, so that wasn't my issue.

But I'm always searching for a less expensive alternative to the Shures (I know the cable's going to tear off one of these days).

Please advise.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Hey dude.

Put your phone in a bowl of rice and place that in your airing cupboard or somewhere really warm for a couple (2) days, 48 hours.

Do not keep going back to check it, just leave it alone.

After the 48 hours check your phone, if you see no obvious water retention then take the plunge and power it up.

If it still seems to have water in it, put it back in the rice and warm place for another day.

Hope this helps.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Nic3Guy:
I had the same problem once with my nokia e66. It was completely wet after falling into a river during a canoe tour. I dried it in rice and it worked for the moment. After a while caused by corrosion on the board it won't charge. So i dissembeled it and put the board into isopropanol until the fluid evaporated. After that i cleaned the board with a soft toothbrush and reassembled the phone. From that point i never had a problem again.

So you got two options. Wait if phone gets strange behaviour and risk a heavier damage or dissemble it directly and put the board into isopropanol.

For me it worked fine! Good Luck!
