You won't need quad cores for at least a year, I think. Not all apps are optimized to dual core, they won't be for quad core.

As a Sony (Ericsson) fan, I would buy Xperia S (I actually will buy it in April, if everything goes right). Nice design, beautiful screen, ICS coming soon, unlockable bootloader (yeah, there is already a pre rooted .ftf for it, in 1 week, at max).

I don't like Sammy neither HTC because of their designs, prices, sizes and disponibility (I never saw a HTC Android phone on Brazil).
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler DeLarge:
and the battery could be a problem? it has to charge faster, but less harsh?
[General Questions and Answers] Livepp:
?

Just bought yourself a note?
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler DeLarge:
what are you saying?
[General Questions and Answers] Felimenta97:
Ignore them.

Anyway, I know Xperia S charge really fast, from many reviews I read. And, toghether with a special charger (not released yet) in 10 minutes, you would have battery for 1 hour.

What Sony is doing wrong is their "almost old hardware" (Snapdragon S3, as S4 is coming out soon (I really don't know exactly what is better between those two, but expert users says there is some improvement.))

Anyway, Xperia S is an amazing phone. Just go to phonearena or GSMarena and check out ther reviews.
[General Questions and Answers] Tyler DeLarge:
Thanks for the availability

so you advise me to buy this Sony and not wait?

thanks again

Yeah.

Just dont mess with the kernel.... I used the GB rom awhile and now this ICS rom... both get all day life and I use about 3 hours a day of surfing the web, about 2 hours of playing music and some games. Both have great idles that dont suck up battery life. Just be careful of some apps that drain batteries.... so try then bareboned then try with the apps you want. There will be a difference so play with the ROM to see what is best for you and ur usage.

Just use the notification bar to turn off internet, wifi and gps when not used.

good luck

Sounds like you probably don't have a kernel with CWM recovery.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The "fastest" ROM/kernel is one which sets the CPU and GPU to run constantly at the highest speeds. You can probably do that with any kernel.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pearson44j:
Hello all

As stated in the title I would like to know where exactly the default homescreen wallpaper image is stored on the ICS file system?

I am using version 4.0.3

Say for example I have a friend with a cool background wallpaper and that I want a copy of it.

Where exactly would I look in the android file system on his phone to get a copy of it?

Note: I do not want to download an app which manages my wallpaper images I want to find out how it works on ICS so that I can manage it myself.

I googled a bit and found the tutorial below at the end of this email.

It would appear that (on Gingerbread) wallpaper is managed by framework-res.apk

When I looked however at the different png files in "framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi" on my ICS installation I nothing what so ever that looks like my current home screen.

Another thread suggests the the wallpaper is stored under the system/media

On ICS I have 4 folders at that level

alarms

notifications

ringtones

ui

On ICS there are no images in any of these folders. The above was most likely true for Gingerbread but not ICS.

Is wallpaper managed by the launcher or by ICS itself?

Am I the only one who had this problem on ICS?

Can any one please help or provide a few clues?

4. check here for all stock firmware from Samsung

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srothkin:
This morning I noticed the icons on my home screens for 4 apps were showing the default android icon (the one that shows when an app is removed but the shortcut is still there). All 4 apps were also missing from my app drawer.

The 4 apps were

DeskClock Plus

S.O.S.

NYC Subway by Embark

Tivo Mobile

When I went to market.android.com on my laptop and searched for the apps one at a time to reinstall them, all of them showed installed. It did let me reinstall DeskClock+ and S.O.S., and NYC Subway (though the phone said NYC Subway failed to install because "app already exists" and after this it reappeared in my app drawer and I was able to run it). It didn't let me reinstall Tivo Mobile because it says it was already installed, but after I rebooted the phone the app was indeed back there.

I used DeskClock+ yesterday morning at the gym so this must have happened sometime between yesterday morning and this morning.

How do I find out what caused this to happen, and what do I do to prevent it from happening again in the future?

I'm using an HTC Thunderbolts All of my apps are installed to phone memory (I don't install apps to the SD card since there is plenty of internal phone memory). I am rooted (Ginger BreadRock V2.6 2.11.605.5, Android version 2.3.4).

FWIW, I do use MyBackup Pro (by rerware) with root options enabled, and it is setup to auto backup my data every Sunday in the middle of the night. I did notice in the rerware temp folder some folders/files from DeskClock+).

I also have Setting Profiles automatically reboot the phone every morning.

Hello,

I have a phone that is now stuck at white screen with green htc logo after an attempt to downgrade following this guide :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178912

However i had already downloaded a PC10IMG.zip with this tool :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1521019

I first tried using the tool, but it always failed. It seemed to me the script failed on getting temproot. (I then manually downloaded the PC10IMG.zip in the .bat file just incase it was a problem with the wget it uses or something)

After that i followed the guide instead and gained temproot, changed version and gaining supercid through the goldcard method.

I then tried downgrading using the manual method using the PC10IMG.zip mentioned above (Its alot smaller than the ones mentioned in the guide. I have a suspicion it is for another phone perhaps). Bootloader recognized it and started "upgrade" process as expected. After it worked with that for a while it rebooted and since then I have been stuck on the white/green splash screen on normal boots.

I can still get into Hboot, but I cant do anything there. Nothing seems to work there. Neither volume +/-, trackpad nor powerbutton does anything.

I can also get into fastboot. This seems to work better, but when i try to flash the image then it just gives me :

So to get this straight, you've tried to root your phone and it went wrong. If so, can you still get into your recovery?

-Turn off phone, hold down the power and volume up button. Then ou should get your bootloader. Once that's loaded slelect recovery with your volume buttons and confirm (press "enter") by pressing your powerbutton. Then your phone should restart in recovery. If you haven't changed your recovery image, you should be able to get the stock ROM running again.-
