[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mrcpu:
It wasn't so much that I didn't know which was which, I just downloaded the wrong MIUI version to the wrong phone while updating both of them, and the i897 in the file name just wasn't enough of a clue what with all the excitement on screen. :)

And no, no flashing on the screen. Waterboy if you must know...

[Motorola Droid 4] RastaPasta:
this might be the most rediculous question I have ever asked but is there something special about this phone's headphone input? I've tried 3 different 3.5mm sets on it and none of the plugs go in all the way. They stick out a little less than quarter of the way and sometimes have poor sound quality. Wondering if this is some kind of design flaw or if i have to take it back to the store? thx!
[Motorola Droid 4] myfishbear:
its normal for the phone cuz of the curved edge:p
[Motorola Droid 4] RastaPasta:
Really? So this is a design flaw Moto overlooked and not just my phone?

Guess this isn't a deal breaker for me, but can anyone recommend some headphones that go all the way and fits snug?
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
It isn't a design flaw -- it is a styling thing, nothing more. That portion of the plug is not (technically) necessary.

Your issue is either with your particular set of headphones, or your telephone. Using my phone to listen to music right now. The end does stick out, but the sound quality is perfect.
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
Same here. Actually, I have been very impressed with the D4 sound quality.
[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
On a slightly related note, I've tried plugging my phone into the AUX input of my car stereo. I find that this is pretty terrible; there's all sorts of radio interference on top of the audio. Something is not properly shielded somewhere, and I think it's the phone. (Probably, now that you mention it, because the plug doesn't fit all the way into the jack...) Have no problems like this using other audio devices...
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
Was your phone plugged into a charger when you tried plugging it in in the car?
[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
Nope. Would that have helped or hurt?
[Motorola Droid 4] punkonjunk:
I noticed this too. Some 3 ring jacks (usually for microphone equipped devices) don't seem to sound right, but I haven't tested the mic at all. So far though, aux seems to work fine, and as has been said, it's just because the phone is curved. I agree, though, a bunch of the cable bit sticking out seems like it's asking for interference, but no issues for me yet.
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
I'm running cm7.2 on my Motorola defy, and due to a need for more storage(64gb sd support) I am upgrading. I primarily do emails, music, and occasional photography and web browsing.

I am looking for a phone that has:

- Some sort of cyanogenmod support, official would be preferable.

- 64gb sd support.

- Decent battery life.

- 8mp camera, a good lense would also be nice.

- Gorilla glass.

- Smaller than the Galaxy S2, as my hands are too small.

- Decent specs.

I had a look at the htc sensation(not 4g), and it looked fine- except I've heard things about it overheating, and having abysmal battery life. I had a look at anker batteries, and the like but getting them shipped to my country would be expensive. It's my primary choice currently, but I'm still iffy about it, hence this thread.

Thankyou in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Even though the Development is fantastic, I didn't find the Sensation much chop.

So far, the 64GB card has worked for me in:

HTC Vivid 4G

LG Nitro HD

Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100

Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 and i717

Dell Streak 5

HTC Incredible S (a bit patchy - required a few formats before it recognised)

There are some reports of it working in the Motorola Atrix also, although I didn't try it.

Hope this helps! It probably works in a lot more, these are just the ones I've tried personally :)
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
Thanks.

So as an opinion, would you recommend the Incredible S over the sensation if the two were relatively similar in price?
[General Questions and Answers] icenight89:
get the vivid or s2 9100, both fit ur needa to the T.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
No. If they are similar in price, get the Sensation. The Incredible S, while excellent in everyday use, is much older on paper and is not worth the price of a Sensation.

The Development for Sensation here makes it a good phone. The only reasons I didn't like it was the out-of-box performance (no modifications), and the fact that out of three units I've owned, two have overheated or shorted out and died completely. Those experiences just left a bitter taste for me :)

I'd recommend a Vivid/Raider/Velocity (all the same phone) over anything else HTC at the moment. It's a pity you can't be pursuaded to the size of the GS2, as that's the best all-rounder on the market currently :)
[General Questions and Answers] JalmiNyondong1933:
Sensation is good. but if you like smaller hanset, I think Xperia sola is good for you. it's dual core and the rest of the specs are good too. they dont say that if its capable to use a 64GB sd card, but you can try it anyway:D. its a lil bit pricy tho..

...alternatively you can consider Droid Razr. a 64GB sdcard works in Razr too,:cool:
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
The vivid is twice the price of the sensation, and I will not be able to take advantage of the 4g.

My step-dad has the S2, and it's very nice- but I'm only 5'8 and have girly hands, so I can't reach all of the screen. It's a bummer.

Due to the sensation's overheating problems, would you recommend avoiding it completely? I'm getting mine(regardless of the price) shipped from Australia, or Singapore so I'm not sure how htc are about warranty. I have had terrible overheating problems, fire and all that with hp computers and would rather not go down that road again.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
What radio bands does your network use?

I found my Vivid right here on XDA for 300 dollars. Sensations here are around the 230 mark, so there isn't a whole lot of difference, unless you are looking at retail prices in which case there will be.

I personally will not touch another Sensation, but it may be completely bad luck on my part. There are plenty here who love it, and it's important to remember that for every member who raises an issue with their handset, there are 100 who have none :)

As far as warranty goes, handsets have to go back to country of origin for servicing if they are carrier branded. I believe an International warranty applied only on unbranded handsets - this may be incorrect though.

Even though I'm in Australia and ship a few phones myself, I'd recommend against sourcing from here if you can. Getting phones out of Australia is a nightmare due to silly Lithium battery regulations. I source most of my handsets from the US and Hong Kong :) Also, prices here are over-inflated for personal technology. We are one of the most expensive nations in the world for gadgets.

Out of curiosity, where are you located?
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
New Zealand. The prices for tech are stupidly high here, I would never buy in this country.

My network, 2degrees says "we run a 900MHz GSM network. Data is provided using both GPRS and EDGE technology. We provide HSDPA at 2100MHZ within our Mobile Broadband Zones. Outside our Mobile Broadband Zones we use 2G 900 MHz or 3G 2100MHz."

So those are the kind of specs I would need.

The Vivid is even bigger than the galaxy.. Wow. The sensation seems to be the same size, but feels a lot smaller. Maybe its the case my step-dad has on his. Will have to do a test.

Out of interest, how do you get phones on xda? Also how much is the S2 on here?
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Yeah, you poor buggers get hit harder than what we do. How's petrol there these days? It was 1.80 a litre last time I was there. We're not far off that here, now :(

2100MHz 3G you'll get on just about every phone in existence, same with 900MHz GSM. I use a Vivid daily and it's marginally smaller than the GS2, and very close to the size of the Sensation (just heavier).

There's a Marketplace here on XDA. Unfortunately they've just put a rule in place limiting access for newer members. Average going price here for a GS2 is around US350 for a black model. White ones a little higher. You're lucky in that you can take any model and it will work so long as it's unlocked. You'll need to factor in shipping also, it's around US50 for a phone and US60 for a tablet to Australia, don't expect it'd be much more to NZ.

:)
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
I don't drive, and for that I am glad. Things are expensive here.

Well, I won't be able to use the market place due to restrictions. So I will have to settle for an import. Is AUSD410 a good price for a sensation, as I have a relative who would be able to pick one up for me in Australia when they go.

When you mentioned the lithium customs problem, does that go for the luggage that is not the carry on?

Sorry if it's too many questions, it's just I'm a student and I don't want to sink my money into a bad phone.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Carry-on luggage doesn't seem to be a problem (at least domestically), I carried multiple phones/tablets with me on my last couple of trips and didn't run into any issues.

To be honest, that's GS2 territory price-wise. What's your budget, and what do you most desire?
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
I just really want a device that supports 64gb sd, has a decent camera, a good battery and isn't huge. I'm still really iffy about phones the size of the galaxy S2, because I just can't reach all of the screen. The Incredible S is looking tempting, because of the size and the fact people say good things about it's battery life.

I wouldn't want want to spend much more than NZD550, which is AUD430 and USD450.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
There's quite aa few options in your budget, but the size limitation rules out the majority, although I definitely understand it. I don't think I could comfortably use any of my phones one-handed!

You should be able to pick up an Incredible S for around the AU300 mark. I'm not 100% sure on comparability with a 64GB card, mine did work eventually but it took a few formats and a bit of coaxing, it certainly wasn't just drop-in-and-go.

What about one of the newer Sony Ericsson phones, like the Arc or Arc S, or even the Ray might be a better fit for you?

Sent from my HTC Vivid
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
The arc S looks very nice, and there are some cases where people have been able to get 64gb cards to work on it. While the headphone jack placement is bad, it's of a good size and has a great camera. If you know of a way that I could buy one for a decent price, I would be very grateful.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Nice choice. There is limited difference between the Arc and Arc S (just a hifher-clocked SoC and 1080p video) and no size difference at all, so even if the Arc S is out of budget, there wouldn't be a lot of difference in taking the Arc instead.

Is the width of the GS2 the off-putting feature? The Arc is narrower and thinner, but about the same length overall?

I'll see what I can dig up for you :-)

Sent from my HTC Vivid
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
And the hight of the screen, I couldn't actually reach the status bar.

The arc is well within my price range, but I would like the faster processor of the arc s.

Thankyou so much for the help.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
You can use this tool at PhoneArena to compare dimensions if you like. Remove the TyTN and add any four phones you like.

Chapest prices I could find you on the Arc S in Australia are eBay unfortunately. There are a couple here on the MP, but after shipping to Australia they'll come out more.

You're looking at around the 410 mark, that's including postage to Australia. I dug it up in white, silver and blue. I can't speak for the seller with the silver and blue units, but I can tell you that even though IMobilePhoneX send their stuff from Hong Kong, it is genuine and always factory fresh. I have dealt with them multiple times.

Anything else I can help with, let me know :)
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
Massive thanks.

I just order the arc S from IMobilePhoneX. Thanks for the recommendation. I assume it should be arriving before next Sunday, am I correct in that assumption?

Also, on a related note- are you running ICS, and if so is it really that much better than gingerbread?

Once again, thankyou.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
My pleasure.

I would guess so. That gives it seven days from HK, which is possible as they usually use a courier.

I am running ICS, but am not the biggest advocate for it. I dislike the 'stock' ICS launcher/UI, and only enjoy ICS on my Vivid because it has Sense over the top. It takes a few cues from Honeycomb naturally, and I wasn't the biggest fan of that UI either.

Performance-wise it is a definite improvement, especially with the GPU now rendering the little things like homescreen flicking, opening/flicking the app drawer etc. ICS on the Vivid is much more fluid and responsive than GB (not that GB was bad by any means - ICS is just noticeably better).

What annoys me the most is that it breaks compatibility with my favourite launcher, LauncherPro. There's no development for it anymore either, so it's probably going to be that way for a long time.

It all comes down to personal preference on the look, but the performance and rendering gains are definitely there :)
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
Well, I might have to give it a try. The new gapps certainly look much better. However if the battery life suffers too much I may have to give it a miss. I have been using ADW EX, and it's been very good. I would recommend it. Also Launcher7 is quite good as well.

CM 7.2 has been working well for me, and MIUI was good except for the bug with powerAMP. I will probably end up using one of those, as modified android is not something I enjoy.
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
The new GApps are fantastic, especially GMail. There is a net gain on battery life for the Vivid, this seems to vary wildly on a per-device basis, though. Some are reporting worse battery life on the Note, for example.

I haven't used much of ADW, I don't enjoy WP7 enough to want to mimic it in Android. I'm a creature of habit, every phone I get gets dressed the same, unless it's Sense :p I like the 'polish' of MIUI a lot, although I couldn't live with using it daily. It's nice for a distraction, though :)
[General Questions and Answers] choovanski:
Thanks.

The phone has arrived. Any recommendation on roms?
