[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Adreno:
If you watch a 240/320/480p video OP it is going to look like **** on any device, ESPECIALLY the higher resolution screen you play it on. Play Standard Definition video on an HDTV...and then play that same video on an SDTV and it will look better on the SDTV. When you play something of lower resolution on a high resolution display its going to look like a stretched out mess.

Play a 720p video on the Galaxy Nexus and you will be impressed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andyjcp:
This for example has a good resolution and should look great on the GNex. Try it...

Ok guys this is crazy.

I played the video on my channel on youtube with wifi on and the video looks bad and grainy with HQ selected in the youtube player (my video is a 720p HD video). I looked right now again a few hours later at the same video on wifi and now it looks sharp and nice. I didn't change anything....I don't know what happened but hopefully it stays this way.

I know using a case makes the phone more rugged and stuff but i like my phone thin... do you think i really need case for my nexus s?
[Nexus S Accessories] qtwrk:
i do have it

too thin isn't good enough to hold , i have it slipped out of hand few times ...
[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
Well i have a case and it's one of the thin case but i prefer a little bit thinner... any suggestions?
[Nexus S Accessories] qtwrk:
if you are willing to play your phone's life , and if it doesn't hurt you when your phone is dropped or scratched, then take off your case ...

otherwise ....
[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
Well if you put it that way... can you recommend any nice and thin case?
[Nexus S Accessories] :
Ringke makes a very thin case if you like the style:

http://www.rearthusa.com/Nexus-S_c_109.html

It's pretty close to my idea of a perfect case when it's new, but it tends to stretch out after a month or two.

A quality alternative is the Mercury case, but it's significantly thicker. The phone is thin to begin with, so I didn't mind the added bulk--I actually enjoy the little bit of bulk it adds.
[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
Looks not that bad... i don't really mind scratch... I'll give it a try later on... thanks :)
[Nexus S Accessories] iGoogleNexus:
I currently have a white Nexus S... and this cover makes my phone not feel flimsy... hard gel... great feel =] looks really nice on it... sprint had them but they stopped selling them.. if u go to the mall ull find them there in cell phone Case Booths... 20 bucks =] my phone is like new.. no scratches... no damage. All because this case made it happen =]

[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
I don't live in USA though.... i live in Canada... and also is it thin?
[Nexus S Accessories] iGoogleNexus:
Its like any other sized rubbery case... but this one is hard gel.. =] so yes

[Nexus S Accessories] shockem:
No not at all actually. unless you are capable of dropping it.
[Nexus S Accessories] Harbb:
That is not a bad case at all iGoogle. However it doesn't fit an i9023 (or NS4G).

Also, you can get it from eBay for about $1.70 or so, which is where i got mine (which i sadly can't use..). Easily the best bang-for-buck case available, if bought from eBay.
[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
Will it fit a i9020a nexus s?
[Nexus S Accessories] sabaramo:
search for "nexus s s line case" in ebay.

Its relatively thin and super cheap.

I don't like the feel of the buttons but apart from that I think it's a great case.
[Nexus S Accessories] kyokeun1234:
OK thanks. I'll search it on eBay.
[Nexus S Accessories] neo_x22000:
i didnt use on at first...but after a few months i noticed the battery cover was getting scratched...so i decided to get one...i got a black one from sprint..which is a hard gel..now the phones protected and it dont feel as slippery...so yea id suggest u get one

You don't need a case.

You don't need a case neither a screen protector. They make your nexus look very big.

The screen is very good, and very hard to scratch. About the back cover, it scratches very easily, so you can change it for another official back cover from time to time. One with NFC and everything is six dollars on ebay.
[Nexus S Accessories] intelwalk:
I think the white looks better than my red one!!!

[Nexus S Accessories] Nexus Keeper:
Several reasons for getting a case:

Being drunk. (*blup*)

Letting your little sister play. (bad idea anyways)

Clumsiness. \:

Over excitement when crush calls.

Vibration accidents. (fall from desk!)

Pockets/bags with sharp keys.

Easier to recognize.

It never ceases to amaze me how people will pay $400+ for a device but then are not careful with it/throw it in a pocket with key/change or put it in a purse full of crap.

Samsung Infuse on AT&T maybe...not sure. I don't think there is a Sprint version of it, but I'm sure if I'm wrong someone will jump up to let me know. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Falcyn:
Your qualification for "sister phone" is a bit different than mine, since the devices you listed (and I say devices since one isn't even a phone) don't have much in common at all other than using the same processor... but by the same requirement, yes, the Charge has a ton of sister devices, including the whole Galaxy S line, the Wave/Wave II, the Infuse 4G, the Exhibit 4G, the Nexus S, and the Galaxy Tab.

I wouldn't personally call any of those a sister phone to the Charge, though. The Infuse is the closest, and came out at right about the same time, but the specs are different so it's more like a cousin than a sibling.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
Soon the aviator on us cellular will be a twin sister......

Charged up post!
[Verizon Droid Charge] motcher41:
Im well aware of what the xoom is. They all share quite a bit with the x2. Xoom probably a bit less. There are more in common with the others then just a processor. Thanks for the info anyways

Sent from my SCH-I510 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[Verizon Droid Charge] DirgeExtinction:
To me, a "sister" phone would be one that shared more than just the same processor. It would share nearly everything with ours, minus carrier. At the moment, the closest thing is the Infuse, which isn't LTE(and might have slightly more ram). An actual sister would be the upcoming Aviator for...that one other carrier.
[Verizon Droid Charge] motcher41:
Hmm maybe I shoulda said second cousin twice removed on her mothers side phone :) I guess basically its a no on a sister phone like my dx2 and the atrix

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusv45:
hi, i have trouble booting into recovery. what i do is press "n" and power and it always goes to "Boot Menu" ... can someone tell me what that is and what it does ? ( i know i can boot into it by pressing power and selecting reboot and recovery just trying to find out how to from power-off) thanks.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k8108:
I'm not the most knowledgeable one to answer this. I was waiting to see if someone else would post here.

But here goes. When I want boot into recovery when my nook is off, I power on holding down the n key. When the boot screen appears, I use the n key to toggle different options on the first line. I opt to boot from emmc. Then use the volume keys to move down to the next line and use the n key again to choose boot into recovery.

I don't remember the exact order of the lines, so I may be a little off, but I hope this helps get you booted into recovery from the boot screen
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusv45:
Thanks for trying to help. i was experiencing boot-loop i think.. ( i wasn't even able to turn my NC off at all. it just kept booting up and being stuck on the Cyanogenmod loading screen every time when i turn it off by holding down power), thats why i needed to boot into recovery from power-off. how it happened was i upgraded to cm9. i wiped cache and dalvik and formatted boot, system and data before flashing. ( i know some instruction here tells to do a wipe data/factory reset. i didnt do that ) I fix it and went back to cm7 by putting in a bootable sd with CWR in the two seconds that it stays off... but the strange thing was that once again i did it my way (wipe cache/dalvik and format boot, system, data) and this time it worked~ no boot-loop. now i wonder what really caused boot-loop the first time :) even when i had the bootable sd card in it didn't even boot into recovery itself i had to push "n" like crazy ... to get in ...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k8108:
Glad you got it fixed.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android311:
also if you have cwr on a bootable sd card you can use rom manager to flash cwr internally, so you wont need a bootable sd card, if you want to get into cwr just use rom manager and select reboot into recovery, i use to have cwr on my sd and didnt like it because you would have to take out the sd card everytime you boot, but this way is much easier, you can back up in rom manger instead of doing it the manual way...holding n and power button, hope this helps :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnnyutah22:
I was thinking about Asus's statement that they would release the unlock tool in response to the Facebook, social network, etc. campaign. Has anyone else considered that Asus had no intention of releasing the tool but instead was just calming the flames as quickly as possible so that they could sell off the inventory they had and prevent those who found this to be a deal breaker from returning their tabs. They give a February release date for the tool knowing that the majority of the tabs would be sold in January thereby getting past any 30 day return issues. They then bank on the fact that most would wait out the month for the unlock tool. This is pure speculation but given their history of issues with the release, gps, and wifi, I'm starting to wonder.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vakbrain:
I don't understand why they would do such a thing. If you unlock the bootloader on your device, you void the warranty.

Asus won't have to support your device anymore and you would be able to play with roms (or even brick your TF201) all you want.

It's a win-win situation IMO.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Frooty:
I doubt it. Lying to your customers seems like it would cause so much more negative press and make people not want to buy from you again. I know if they never released it, I personally wouldn't ever buy anything from Asus again as I don't want to support a company who lies to their customers.

Not only would they lose out on us buying future products, they would also lose out on us recommending their stuff to others. I personally have recommended the Prime to 2 other people and they bought it after that. They would be losing all that money too because if they did lie to us, then in the future I'd try hard to get people not to buy Asus products since I wouldn't want anyone to support a lying company.

But I believe in Asus and I think they'll release it soon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnnyutah22:
I agree it wouldn't make good business sense, but their last two tablet releases have been absolute disasters. They made a device with what can only be described as a "signal shield" for a backing, throttled supply, released it before it was ready, and then decided to announce a newer version with the fix we should have had. They haven't done anything that's logical in the last 18 months. I'm just saying that I have my questions as to whether there is any intention of releasing an unlock tool anytime soon. I seriously hope I'm wrong.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] loveableterrorepic4g:
The TF101 was a disaster? Huh... *Races to phone* Quick! Call every major technology news outlet and blog, tell them they were wrong! Ha, I'm just kidding, but yeah, I understand the Prime has faults. I am ordering one very very soon and I look forward to it. I am not concerned with the WiFi issue as I have played with one in my house and at school and so far I have not a single complaint. I have returned the test unit to my friend today and I can't wait for mine to arrive!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
As was noted i the other thread today on WiFi and the Bootloader, releasing an unlocker is a legal nightmare. NOT because it voids warranties - that's a good thing for Asus, but because they have to "Present" it with the correct legalese. There are places where a warranty CANNOT BE VOIDED by things like user actions especially with an ASUS provided tool.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1503267

Its just too complicated in today's litigation happy world to do obvious practical solutions without spending huge amounts of resources doing CYA... A shame, really.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
Well I'm sure the story would be run on Web sites that they lied and would be pretty horrible press. I think it will come.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnnyutah22:
I think some are missing my point. We didn't set the February timeline, they did. If it's a legal nightmare then they shouldn't have said anything about a release time frame. I wasn't starting a "trash the prime" thread, I can live with its shortcomings if the bootloader is unlocked. And to the response about the original transformer, the release was a disaster and that's what I was talking about in the OP. All I know is that there's 11 days left in the month and there are people saying they know people on the inside that are disputing an unlock in February or possibly ever.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
Yeah, February is just past half over, still plenty of time. I expect them to hold to their word on this personally and will not speculate or pass judgment until March 1
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] di11igaf:
That would be the worst mistake they ever made in their lives. I would personally call chuck norris.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DrWowe:
Well Motorola does it all the time and ppl still buy their junk. They promised a bootloader unlocker for the various Droid phones in 2011 and then... silence. Don't ever trust a "promise" from a corporation they mean nothing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 3DSammy:
Asus has worked on the bootloader. A well known dev (Bumblebee) had posted on twitter a message congratulating Asus for taking the first steps in implementing the code necessary to unlock the bootloader. That code appears in the .13 firmware update.

Bumblebee is one of the devs that found rooting exploits for the TF and TFP so I trust what he says. He is often found in the #asus-transformer IRC channel.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dilligaf:

I really just thought my account got hacked for a minute....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnnyutah22:
Take it for what it's worth, just a thought. I guess it's crazy to think that Asus wouldn't release the tool in February.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dilligaf:
Funny. I saw a post from you the other day and did a big WTF.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dilligaf:
It may not hit in Feb, but I'd attribute that more to legalities and not fraud.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] prenedo:
Not trying to derail the thread, but I've been wondering... Does anyone know what devs have been working with the prime? I'm never on IRC and am not in 'the loop'. I guess I'm mainly wondering who to expect ROM's, themes and kernels from.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phased:

To keep the LED on while the screen is on AOKP 26 has this built in. Have not seen any other wat to do it though.

Why I have it is when I get a text I don't remember when I'm watching videos till I see it blinking and remember. Comes in handy some points.

I haven't found an option like that either. I think our only option right now is to use AOKP or try and figure out how they are implementing it and make an app of our own.

As for those of you asking why you would want this, the answer in my case is full-screen apps that hide the notification bar. I have AOKP and was happy to be able to turn this feature on.
