I'm not sure I see the logic here

It's more about personal preference & opinion, Personally I think Xperia phones have a style & feel that other phones specially Samsungs lack, Choosing between Xperia S and for example Samsung's quad is a bit like the choice I made when I bought the X10, I could pay a lot more & buy SG, but I'm still glad that I didn't go for that piece of brick because my X10 still does everything I need & I still don't feel the need to have SG or SGII, I don't play 3D games at all specially because of battery consumption & I don't want to show-off to my friends with lates tech & stuff So yeah Xperia S is really good choice for me, I can save the extra money & spend it on something else, I must say this though that only bummer is it being launched with Gingerbread

I don't think that I ever need a quad core, be it next year or even in like 3 years so yeah buying one seem pointless & a waste of money, I rather pay less money & buy a more stylish & beautiful phone that's enough for my needs & also has a great camera
[XPERIA X10 General] I_@m_me:
Though I wish software would not get inefficient as better hardware is introduced
[XPERIA X10 General] sahibunlimited:
I never said to compare to samsung

Their are HTC and Motorola too

Sent from my GT-I9100 on Official ICS!
[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
I guess that's the positive side of having choice, if you want something bleeding edge you can get a quad core device, if you're looking for a better looking design you can get a Sony phone, there's no right or wrong here since even if you are looking for a 'future proof device' in a year or less something new will come out that will make you question your decision no matter what, that's how this business is.
[XPERIA X10 General] michal04.90:
For me with this spec the xperia s should be a bit cheaper
[XPERIA X10 General] kylec:
Have been looking at reviews and it apparently has pretty poor battery life which is a bit of a deal breaker sadly
[XPERIA X10 General] violence1907:
Im gettin the one x :-D just a Monster :-D dont wanna wait for the Galaxy s3 and for me Samsung is the Same big s**t company as Apple. It will be released in mart, noo noo it wont! There was a picture which maybe could be the s3. OH MY GOSH!!! Please Samsung stop this. Or you can collaborate with Apple. So for me it will be the One x, the only thing im Not sure is the LCD Display and the battery which u cant take out :-S

Why do you think that Samsung is like Apple?

Send from beneath my cloak of magic
[XPERIA X10 General] Prodigy:
Can you elaborate on big sh** company? Samsung releases heaps of new phones from low end to high end each year, whereas apple releases 1 phone and a cheap touch device with the exact same specs for little kiddies who can't afford phones. And its very overpriced.

If you mean by popularity wise I do see more ssung galaxy s2's more than iPhones nowadays.

Don't get me wrong I'm just fascinated about why you reckon Samsung is big sh** :D
[XPERIA X10 General] violence1907:
They are both using the Same strategy of Marketing with hyping a phone up like it was god O.o thats what is my Problem :-)

Of the phones itselfs they are really good, but their policy is just annoying. :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
Totally stuck here. My X10 is excellent apart from the bluetooth audio drop outs but I am due an upgrade.......................

The question is what to upgrade to.............if at all.

The 'S' does not 'look right' to my eyes and the reports of duff screens and poor battery life do not instil confidence. Apparently lots of devices have been replaced due to screen issues. I wonder where they will reappear and in what guise.

The 'P' looks much more interesting in its aluminium jacket, but it has a smaller screen.

Galaxy S2 appears nice but is quite plasticky and flexible. The rumoured GS3 and its ceramic body sounds enticing.

Iphone 4s looks attractive too, sadly much as I despise the Apple philosophy - do it our way or not at all - the metal and glass chassis exudes the class and quality that the 'S' just does not possess, although the fragility of the Iphone is well documented.

The attractions of my X10 have not really waned. The 'chrome' highlights on the sides give it presence and the screen quality is still quite impressive. It is just the infernal bluetooth drop outs and the poor in-call sound quality that lets it down. That and the fact that I am ready for a change after two years.

That brings another issue of course. the 'S' runs the same system as my X10 so will not really appear different.

Ho, hum. What to do.....................................

Constructive suggestions for a way forward welcome.
[XPERIA X10 General] kylec:
I'm in a similar position, but my power button is acting up and so is the screen at times.

There are features on each of the Xperia s, p and u that I like but are unique to each one. If only they combined them into one super phone that would be cool.

The gs2 from what I heard feels fine once you get used to it.

Have you considered any of the other HTC or moto phones?
[XPERIA X10 General] michal04.90:
HTC one s looks nice for me, new snapdragon s4, sense 4 with ics but it has 2 seriuos drawbacks the pentile display and no SD card slot and also cost a bit more than xperia s
[XPERIA X10 General] Jamolah:
Well my X10 just crapped out, it will not charge anymore. I keep getting the red light blinking. So...

My Galaxy S2 is being delivered today.
[XPERIA X10 General] Matthyzz:
i would love to have one but.. maybe i think you should wait on the U and the P to compare the three
[XPERIA X10 General] power323f:
I got my Xps on 11 march and I love it.

The screen look great,

The phone feels good (not to big)

Its nice and smooth

and even its stil got 2.3.7 it looks good

The HD movies that i make they look perfect on my 55" full hd tv its so sharp

There is only one downside to the Xps: the battery, 15 to 16 hours and its empty
[XPERIA X10 General] kylec:
How heavily do you use the phone?
[XPERIA X10 General] bolillo:
Im getting the ion just because the camera is ahead of any other android phone in the market I think and thats the original reason I choose my x10 over the sgs1 and to this day the pictures look awesome and since the S3 in the ion is capable of running everything its ok and when in doubt flash a rom to make it blazing fast. Im on att and the only other option is the htc one xl it has the dual core S4 which is better but it still has a 8mp camera I mean my x10 has that and I want a phone thats better than my x10 in all aspects and I think the ion will fill my needs for two more years. The only thing that really made the x10 a hassle was the dualtouch, the fps cap and no real flash just a led. And those are my thoughts.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
Seriously considering a fruit phone - sadly - simply because of its external design. The current crop of S phones are not as attractively designed as the SE forebears. Current crop are just too 'slabby'.

Upgrade time is here and nowhere to go...........................:eek: :o :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] riginal:
PITY, I hope you're a super heavy user, are you?
[XPERIA X10 General] power323f:
No i am not a super heavy user. But i got the. 67 update last night and i can already say that the phone stays cooler and less power use
[XPERIA X10 General] wo88les:
had a look at the phone the other day... very smart indeed :D
[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
a lot of companies are going to the 'no sd car slot' way it seems... maybe because it gives them the opportunity to sell slightly different revisions like: XYZ phone with 16 GB or the XYZ S with 32 GB for an extra $$$

lame :mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] negrobembon:
Sucks, i really like the convenience of a removable memory, not having it is very dissapointing
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
I also got a XPERIA S and still use my x10. One is for my company and the other one for private use. XPERIA S has such a good batterylife and it charges so fast! I'm happy that I didn't wait for quadcore from HTC or SGS3.

Don't think the wrong way, the SD card is also a causer of alot of problems with smartphones.
[XPERIA X10 General] harryville:
Does it have MHL?
[XPERIA X10 General] Scratchling:
Only have the X10 less than a year, normally I'd keep any phone a minimum of two(had my originally N6100 for like 5) but I just cant say no to the S. Its a super phone so picking one up next month :D
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
MHL?

10chars
[XPERIA X10 General] sahibunlimited:
MHL is micro usb to normal hdmi
[XPERIA X10 General] yuszx:
Doesnt need mhl because it has micro hdmi output and the cable is included in the xperia s box
[XPERIA X10 General] ilamaan:
Can't deny a Sony Xperia S. I'm planning on to buy one too. But I just started to get some money saved up for it :/
[XPERIA X10 General] Android>iPhone:
I have had the X10 for almost 2 years now and I think it's about time to ditch it for good.

But since Gingerbread I'm quite satisfied with the X10, the only problem I have is that the phone/battery heats up and then starts random restart cycles.

I was home all day today and that's when I never have an issue with it, only when I'm out and listening to music and try to browse the web or taking pictures it would just freeze and restart.

That's a reason to get rid off it.

For Xperia S, I might actually wait until Ice Cream Sandwich is out.

I have learnt my lesson when I bought an outdated 'Donut' device and got the update 6 months later with the X10.

The GSIII seems quite a stunner as well, so I am a little bit undecided but I guess that I will treat myself to an Xperia S in the coming days/weeks because I have been loyal to Sony /SE for a long time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pauzzz:
Was just wondering how I could get it to work. I think I have the correct drivers installed, as I installed Samsung Kies, but I could be wrong. Anyone have any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
You do have to make sure that the USB debugging is off.

I couldn't get it to work in CM9 so I just went back to stock gingerbread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pauzzz:
no dice, but thanks! oh well i might just flash the prl i need from a gingerbread based rom and then update to AOKP again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dubs.law:
This is your only option
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] autoprime:
or fixing DM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] peryp9:
This is an easy one ... From your phone's dialer, type:

##8778#

then select CP instead of AP. This will put your phone is SERIAL MODE ... after you make this change, you should see a new port in DEVICE MANAGER / PORTS / SAMSUNG Serial Port ...

When you're done with the changes, go back to AP.

As others have stated must go back to stock TW rom to get phone into diagnostic mode.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sunsparc:
I don't think flashing back to GB and then back to AOKP will work. You have to do a full wipe in order for it to behave properly and my PRL was overwritten with the default one upon flashing AOKP.

So I guess there is a new MIUI built from source being worked on. It's specific for the GNEX and our screen resolution. Right now there is a beta version out for gsm phones. Can't wait until there is a Toro version available. Looks like it's gonna be really cool. This should mean that the theme engine should work. Thougts?

[HTC EVO 3D] blackie100:
Hi all,

I have this static/buzzing noise whenever I play music. It just stays there in the background and it's completely noticable. I also get this sound, whenever I get a notification, like a sms, e-mail etc. also, if I turn the volume to 0 and I play a song, all I hear is that static/buzzing noise.

But, whenever I pause the music, the noise stays there for a few seconds and than it dissapears. But when I play music again, the static/buzzing noise comes back...

I have tried different roms, kernels, music players and different earphones.

None of the above seemed to solve my problem.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Have you tried other headphones? Have you experienced this on other devices? I ask because it is normal to hear a little hiss/noise from audio devices when they're powered and no signal is coming through if the volume is up. Just some devices have more than others... If it's buzzing, though, that could be a bad ground in the connection. It could be the headphones or the headphone plug on the phone.

If another set of headphones doesn't do the trick, you may have something faulty on the Evo. That is if you already went back to full stock to test.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackie100:
I tried many headphones, no static noise when it's in an iPod. Never experienced a static noise on my iPod.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
so you tried other pairs of headphones in your evo? Not just compared ipod to evo right? The plug could be touching a little differently in the evo between headphones and might be completely different in an ipod. This is why some people experience tracks skipping randomly when there's an inline mic.

But if another set of headphones with the evo produces the same problem, it could be faulty hardware. might have to get it replaced if it's that big a deal to you.

Good luck, just hope I could be more help. It'd be easier to hear and get a clearer idea of what is happening exactly.
[HTC EVO 3D] blackie100:
Well, I had this since day 1 of my evo. My mother's sgs has this too =/
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ahmed_Saleh:
Hi I just got my inspire 4g working more than fine but the android version (Gingerbread 2.3.3) was just in english, so I searched the internet for custom rom with arabic language, then I've found one at another forum (I regret) with no description or details but I found out after that that it's froyo 2.2, I sat it up and then the device rebooted but with a problem, it take a lot of time to boot to the system, and it worked but with issues in the sound and performance,

so I tried to update to gingerbread to solve this issues but like I said it takes a lot of time boot, after that the device is not working at all not booting.

when I press and hold the power button the device won't power up and after 20mins it powers up with a white screen with htc logo at the center and vibrates for about 5mins and then the screen goes black with a dimmed gray light, when I type the "adb devices" command in the cmd (while the screen is dimmed) it shows the device is connected.

So what I have to do to get it work again !? :(

Pleaaaase help me
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
First question are you rooted ?

Second can you get into hboot by powering up with holding volume down and power button at the same time?

If so here is the rooted gingerbread rom and radio. Just place zip file in root of sd card you may need adapter for sd card. Then power up into hboot when it ask to load pd98 volume up for yes. Let it do its thing then reboot.

Its english version you may find language help here in XDA just search.

DO NOT FLASH THIS ROM IF YOUR NOT ROOTED.

http://www.fileserve.com/file/zV2GZmB
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ahmed_Saleh:
first of all thanks for quick reply.

- No I'm not rooted

- No I can't get into hboot

by the way, I noticed that every time I plug the usb cable or the charger into the device it has a flashed red led for a while and then the led stays red for a longer while then it turns green, so I think the battery is damaged I guess. am I right ?

ps. I have sd card adapter
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
There is a non rooted rom here somewhere in the general section. You can try searching for it sorry can't help you there. On the battery not to sure there, theres a few good guys here like zelendel,Tx redneck, mm_bacon or cwhitney who might come along and help you out.

If not rooted then warranty exchange it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
You have messed up your bootloader by flashing a froyo hboot into a gingerbread shipped phone. You can boot into hboot bit it will take at least 30 minutes. Come to the Hack Kit IRC channel to see if we can give u a hand

[General Questions and Answers] DealerMan:
Step-by-step

Disclaimer: I'm not responsible if your phone explodes, or otherwise becomes a brick!

With that out of the way, dive right in:

As a new member, I can't post outside links yet. Here's where to find the files for downloading:

Go to androidforums dot com and search for the '1-click root for sch-r720', click on the first link. From there, you can download the driver & root zip files.

I'm assuming you're running Win7.

1. Back up your data!

2. Plug in your USB cable. Put your phone into USB debugging mode:

Settings > Applications> Development and check the box

3. Go to the Market, pardon me, 'Google Play', and install Superuser.

DO NOT OPEN after installation! If you get an error, disregard

installation and we'll come back to it.

4. Download & install the Samsung Indulge drivers. Yes, the Indulge drivers.

5. Download and extract '1-click root' to an easily accessible folder (desktop

would be good).

6. In that folder, double-click run.sh. Reboot if it doesn't do it automatically.

7. If you were unable to install Superuser before, do it now, and reboot.

8. Return to Google Play, and install & run Root Checker Basic.

9. Post back that it works, and then send me the winning Powerball numbers!

I was modifying the CM7 status bar, and the I need to change the green lines on Power Widget Indicator, into blue lines.

I know how to change it on CyanogenMod Settings>>Interface>>Energy Widget>>Indicator Color; but that I want to do is change it by default, by edit the .apk.

Anyone of you knows how to do that?:(

Think it is in there?
[HTC Wildfire S] Eskuero:
The most of colors and sizes on android apps design should be on res folder, anyway I've search here a lot of times, with no result...

It's possible that the colour is changed by a dinamic way using javascrip code, and then it must to be on smali folder, but's big...

It's better to look for some strings defined on data partition after changing the colour of thid lines, and then add it into someone xml of the values folder:D

Decompile settings.apk

Edit appwidget_settings_ind_on_c_holo.9.png

Also edit 2 other images similarly....

Be careful its .9 png ..... search for how to edit this...

It can work, but I am confused - on my phone it shows green and on images you told me to edit it is already blue ;x
