Right now, technologically, there isn't much of a draw as their phones are a little behind the techno-curve, however, with the introduction of W8, I believe this may spark development cross-platform between tablets and phones on W8, and I believe their lines of phones will continue to improve. (the integration with XBL is nice if you own one of those as well)

The compatibility with common Office products is not going to be bested, and the development for them should be significantly easier (in theory). They are also not as big as Apple in filtering what you can and cannot have access to. Apple comes with the selling of ones soul to their ecosystem. Basically agreeing that iTunes and iBooks (and all the DRM that comes with all their products) will become your way of life. Trying to depart from this life will cause you to lose what you have accumulated.

And as someone stated before: It's not Apple :eek::D:D (an evil patent troll that sues everyone and everything in hopes that in the end, "there can be only one.")

Just remember: I said IF I were to move away from Android - that doesn't mean "WHEN." :D

Verizon's current WP7 offering sucks balls. It is under powered and small. However there are some nice WP7 phones. ATT has a nice phone or 2, HD7s and the titan.

Verizons trophy, while sucking balls, is a very smooth phone.
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
So I got the skyrocket. I wanted to wait for the Sony Ion, but all signs were pointing to a June release. There are a ton of phones coming out in the next few months man, crazy stuff. Htc Titan 2 will have a 16 mp camera. Gawd dang. The Sony will have 12, and quad cores, and dual cores oh my. Iphone has got to be limping right out of the gate this fall. I don't get the popularity.
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
Whatever you do though, don't base judgements just on megapixels alone. Megapixels mean nothing with a crappy lens. Just look at the articles on Droid-Life regarding the HTC One (or whatever it is).

That's why people with simple minds don't belong with Android unless they learn to figure it out.

Hello guys.

I'm currently using the very customizable Apex Launcher on my Samsung Galaxy Ace running on CM9 (thanks to Maclaw by the way).

I find it's almost perfect but one thing is missing for me. I think that there's not really enough place in the vertical drawer, because of the black bar on the top of it with "All apps", "Downloaded apps" and "widgets". I removed Downloaded apps and widgets but the bar is still present and it takes - in my opinion - place for nothing. Is there a way, like going into the apk and change some things, for removing it? It would be sooooo amazing.

Sorry if what I'm saying is totally dumb; I'm kind of a noob in these modding stuffs.

Sorry too if I'm in wrong section.

Sorry for my english, I'm french.

Thanks.

I'm not so sure you could modify the apk yourself depending on licenses and stuff but if you pm the developer he may implement that option in a new version.

Oh, right.

How should I find his PM? There's no contact options in Apex I think.

Hi there folks, I personally own a gnex and I got the tablet mod on it and my gf is rly jealous of it and would want it for her evo 3d. Is there a ics with working camera (only 2d) and stable enough for everyday use and a tablet view mod? Can someone point me in the right place. Thank you
[HTC EVO 3D] dr.chucky:
Check in development section there is a Rom called "the express". It's a mix of the EVO view and EVO 3d. I haven't tried it, but its probably as close as you can get for what your looking for

Don't know how long it's going to last, but for now at least Best Buy has the Sandisk 64GB MicroSDXC for $79 (online only). It was listed as "sold out" earlier today, but I guess they are getting more in stock. Been thinking about pulling the trigger on one, so this was too good to pass up. Just ordered mine, better jump on this deal quick if you want one.

Samsung Micro SDHC Class 10 is the only Class 10 card I would recommend. Others are crap. 2nd best would be this, Sandisk Ultra Micro SDHC/SDXC 32gb/64gb.

The 32gb is $35 if anyone is interested.

64 gb micro sdxc

I have received my micro sd card from Bestbuy and after inserting it into my Galaxy S2 i777 it stated that the card was damaged. Here is how you can fix that

Format The Sd Card via the format tag on your phone, and it should be recognized, but only 59.46 GB.:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SmittyRN:
Yup, just needs formatting. Works like a charm.

I kept missing the sale. Every single time it went live, I could never get there before they sold out. Now it doesn't even have the sale price, which leads me to believe getting it at a discounted price is over. The last time (about a week ago) it was 89.99. Well, today I found one on Amazon for $99 (free shipping) from a reputable seller. I pulled the trigger :).

Anyone still looking for a deal on these should act quickly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktnndal:
Me too, I grabbed 3 when I saw it today on slickdeals :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
Holy crap. The name slickdeals sounded familiar, but I had never checked it out. That site is seriously something to look at everyday. I was just casually looking around and saw a Galaxy Nexus for ~$500. I've seen similar deals before, but with carrier branding. The one I just saw is the generic unlocked version. I might grab it. I still hate that it doesn't have a microsd slot though, which is why I'll keep my i777 as my everyday use device.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zmalach:
To be honest, I don't like Go apps, yes they are nice & beautiful apps but in order to use just one, you have to instal loads of apps. I don't want to use Go launcher either! I am happy with the stock launcher.

The only way would be for someone to modd it to add those special functions...but that's incredibly hard...:(

[Samsung Infuse 4G] dustinhayes93:
For the past couple of days my infuse has been acting really weird. When im texting it will sometimes start texting by itself. Ill stop what im doing and it will start inputing random keys. If I close out of texting app it will open apps. I cant even shut it down threw the menu, I have to do a hard reset... Would this be an issue because im rooted or have a custom rom? I had vagabond and it did this, and i switched to CM7 and it did it still. If it is a hardware problem could I just send it back to sammy? I've only had it for 2 months... Thanks in advance =]
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaliciousIntent69:
This could be from a bad or faulty digitizer. You could try to Heimdall or GTG Unbrick it back to stock ROM and if it still does this, then It is most likely the digitizer. Which can be a bit costly to replace. Then again this is just my opinion. Maybe one of the more experienced members or devs could prove or disprove this and maybe lead you in the correct way.

Peace out with the grease out,

Has anyone else noticed issues with the video camera not focusing and making videos blurry.

On another note, the camera doesn't perform too well in the dark, with pictures having a lot of noise in them.

In daylight, the PQ is the best I've seen on a smartphone, hopefully Sony releases a fix in the near future.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cholek3:
Normal mode (Scene mode: OFF) - yes, there is a noise

But with Night mode on:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RiotRick:
Wow, that's a big difference!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doministry:
I will test the video later on....

As for night shots, it always takes some patience and settings to make a good one.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sandtang:
Yes, now that you mention it, there was once it could not focus in video mode no matter how long I held the half-press. I switched to photo mode to focus, then back to video mode again.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pixate:
I've been having issues with focus in video mode. It seems to be hunting in light conditions, and oddly when the face detection is working (the box appears around the face) it still fails to focus on the subject.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] somemadcaaant:
The continuous auto focus on this phone is intentionally slow, this is way better then an instant focus that constantly zooms in and out to hold the focus which looks horrible.

My other phone Droid 3 does this noticeably, constantly focusing slightly zooming in and out to maintain the quality.

If you view something with a darker colour then its surroundings, the zoom will focus correctly shortly after.

-smc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pixate:
I'm used to slow auto focus, but the problem I have is failing to focus at all. It identifies the heads, but the heads remain out of focus. The focus hunts, and will gain focus for a second or so, then revert back to blur-o-vision... I the most recent situation, the subject was against a white background so nothing to confuse the sensor.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ash_c64:
Talking about the camera, i saw a video review and the phone being reviewed had touch focus how did they set it like that?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abandoned-Trolley:
When in the camera, press your menu button and you will get an additional menu come up with the option for Capturing method. It's in there.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ash_c64:
I had smile detection on so the focus option was grey out. Thanks for that
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mistermakri:
Im also having issues with the camera not focusing as it should. Taking a photo can sometimes take up to 8-10 seconds when I have to repress the camera button. Is that a software issue or hardware? In other words, should I return the phone to the store or wait for the ICS to (hopefully) fix it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marcoplo:
if your video is blurry while recording try to press camera shutter half way and it will focus automatically

if there is lot of noise while taking picture try to change focus mode from the face dectection to the single mode focus and that will improve the picture quality especially if not taking a poirtrate picture!!

--------------------------

there is no rapid focus in the xperia s the focus is half automatic so this is work the same way as the focus in camera before half way camera shutter and it will dramatically improve the quality of the video

It shouldn't update anything, or if should - once, not every boot...

any solution?

It's the dalvik cache refreshing but it should only do it after an update to the system. My Nexus doesn't do it

[HTC Sensation] hexen88:
Yes, everything is normal after boot. But... normal boot isn't fast, and now... with updating it's slower than just "slow" ;(
[HTC Sensation] aeroseek:
Maybe turn off the fast boot feature? I guess it's possible it might be precluding Dalvik from updating correctly.

Shot in the dark :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] arknu:
Did anyone manage to find a solution to this problem? It's not hugely annoying, but it definitely should not be doing that.

I contacted HTC and they (naturally) suggested a factory reset. However, given that I had to flash 1.73.401.4 from an RUU to update (was stuck on an older version, for some reason), I'm rather hesitant to do another reset only to have the same problem. And given that I updated a completely new installation, it would seem somewhat unlikely that a factory reset would solve this.
[HTC Sensation] status_six:
Have you guys tried remounting /data, or checking and fixing permissions for that folder?

Dalvik cache is stored at /data/dalvikcache. Problem could be due inability for this to be read at boot?

Have you used any app or script that would direct the dalvik cache elsewhere, such as app2sd, data2sd etc? If so, disable/delete...

This thread might provide useful reading: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1239471
[HTC Sensation] arknu:
Thanks for the suggestions. Right now I am running stock everything, and it sounds like this would require rooting. Is that correct? Sorry for the stupid question, but I am rather new to that particular dimension of Android.
[HTC Sensation] status_six:
Yes root needed for that unfortunately. They have recommended factory reset because it will wipe /data.
[HTC Sensation] arknu:
Well, I decided to take the plunge and do a factory reset. As I suspected, HTC's reply was nothing more than a boilerplate copy-paste reply. Factory reset does not help in any way. I think this is simply a bug in HTC's ICS update (and not the only one, by the sound of things). If they'll admit it, now that's another matter...

Hello

Given the state of Android on this tab, would you advise me to buy it ?
[TouchPad General] muyoso:
For 200 eurodollars. Prob not. Wait and get the Asus/Google tablet for 199 new.

[TouchPad General] tjsooley:
all in all its the best tablet I have ever gotten. I have not even put android on it yet
[TouchPad General] Stryeguy:
I would recommend it at that price. Granted, the TP is EOL, but currently, in my opinion, it is one of the best tablets on the market for its price thanks to the great development community.

Just my .02
[TouchPad General] nullkill:
I had an Asus transformer I bought for my wife. I had to sell it after comparing it to my TouchPad. The Touchpad blew it out of the water speed wise. I was appalled. I am not a big supporter of Tegra chips and I know most Tablet manufactures used them because of their low price point where as the TI chip in the TP is a little speed demon. I am sure the GPU on the Tegra is better but I couldn't tell when comparing games except that the Touchpad ran them sooo much smoother with what looked like a higher FPS.

Also it was either one of the first or the first tablet to get ICS so you have amazing support on the device even though its as dead as a zombie :-)
