im running 2.6 with ics extreme edition theme.can you make a flashable zip that it works with this theme.here is the framework link if you needed.thanks.nice work.

ps.i find it ...post #43.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
did this also fix how some times drag away notifications would glitch and come right back ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] frescoraja:
No but if you send me your systemui.apk or just tell me which rom version, flags, and mods you're using i can send you an updated version that improves the swiping.

If you're still using this mod, flash the updated framework.jar regardless because it fixes the Bluetooth icon thing.

Thanks

Frescoraja

Ps if you're talking about the problem where, after swiping away a notification it keeps coming back randomly until you hit clear button, i am still working on that. I have only noticed it with browser notifications, after I've downloaded something... Have you seen this occur elsewhere?

Okay, here's the deal:

My mother goes to school part time, for her work who requires her too. bottom line is she has like 4 essays to write but one of them i told her - since im an Android junkie :D - i would give her at least a really good outline for.

Here's where I ask you guys for help, cause I think I have my main points but still maybe you all can put in your main points (two or three) so I can get some other ideas as well.

heres the topic:

Why the Android OS is BETTER THAN the iPhone OS for the ORDINARY CONSUMER.​

So the thing to keep in mind here when I write this is that it is for a normal, everyday consumer.... This is the main reason I ask you guys for input is because it is hard for ME to separate the geeky points from points that the students in her class would see.

Anyways, thanks for anyone who has some input as I need to write a good outline for my mom before she goes into work tonight, again thanks. :D:D:D

Freedom. Want a screen bigger than 3.5"? There's a phone out there. 16gb of storage not enough? Spend 20 bucks more and double your storage with a micro sd card. Want to install an app that isn't on the market? Download another appstore or the apk file itself. Don't want to have to deal with iTunes for music? Congrats, just drag and drop files from any computer or download many different music stores with Android.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
The single largest freedom an Android device grants a and user is the ability to utilize a MicroSD (or ANY) memory card for expanded or interchangeable memory.

You can unmount and remount sdcards on the fly, so you can change them out without turning the unit off and keep a whole mess of media on a bunch of cards.

(this memory card for Rock, this memory card for Blues, this memory card for action movies, this memory card for etc...)

The greatest hardware improvement over an i-something is the option of a hardware keyboard. You will also never see this on an i-pocket device. This is something we are all familiar with right here moreso then elsewhere and bears no further explanation.

The biggest frustration shed by an end user when leaving the communistic apple universe is ditching iTunes. - No more need be said on that either here, you can fill in the details on that.

Android is encouraged to be used on any device that can be made to run it. iOS runs on 3 (and only 3) pieces of hardware. Android offers users a choice of hardware that fits their needs and budgets, not just a single price point at take it or leave it.

Due to the 'promiscuous licensing' of Android (as steve jobs has been known to say) Android devices can consistently offer hardware that is at least one (if not more) generation(s) ahead of what the single Apple phone offers.

(Android has quad core processors now - what's the iPhone got?)

Bottom line is the two contenders can be summed up quite simply:

Apple = control

Android = freedom

In an Apple ecosystem you can do what Apple says you can do, when they say you can do it, precisely the way they allow you to do it and no more.

In an Android ecosystem you are encouraged to seek innovative ways of doing things and utilizing the hardware and software.

----

A jailbroken i-device still offers less freedoms then a full-security on and locked Android device. So an i-something at it's most open state is still more locked down then an Android in it's most locked state.

----

I don't have any more time and there were quite a few other points I wanted to touch on, but that should be some to get the outline started in addition to what is or hopefully will be posted.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
Most android phones have removable batteries so you can always keep a spare on you.

More customizable. You can pretty much change any software aspect of the phone.

There are android phones on many carriers including a lot of prepaid carriers.

Devices running android are generally cheaper than devices running iOS.

Choice of screen size and resolution even up to 720p on phones.

Thought of a couple more. You have a choice of size and also more color choices... You don't just get to choose between black and white because there are so many different colored android powered devices out there.

Hmmm... A lot of other stuff has already been covered, but if I think of anything else I will post it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
for the average user it really is just down to money.

cheaper phones (with way better price/performance ratio) and cheaper/more free apps.

the average joe won't even notice the difference in freedom you can have with android over ios

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Multitasking is a real nightmare on the iPhone...

I can't stand the fact that I'm flipping through 4 apps at a time

Not to mention the smaller screen and lack of widgets. I also like the app drawer in android, compared to the sliding panes in iOS. It's just easier to navigate through all your apps, instead of flipping from page 1 to 9. Oh, that brings me onto the leap screen, which is a neat little feature to get from one screen to another quickly.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
When I used iOS I was Jailbroken and had my iPhone looking like a Nexus S. Also, I had my 3G running Sense 2.1. I liked iOS for the Apps, but Android caught up.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Limewirelord:
Freedom of choice. This is it. There's all sorts of shapes, sizes, options, UI choices; you name it. You want choices? Android's the platform to go to.

Unfortunately, you pay for this freedom of choice for usability for everyday users that don't really care about rooting, SD cards, using something that isn't iTunes for music, and a lot of other things.

Personally, I disagree with you mostly because I deal with all of this nonsense all the time and a normal person won't care to explore the potential of something they have bought, let alone paying more than $50 for something that isn't the O GREAT IPHONE. Great for people like us who care about doing the most we can with what we buy, but most people "can't be bothered" to actually try doing something with the things they buy.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
That's not the point though... The outline isn't for what OS is better it's for why android is better...

Also I thought of something else... Most android devices are built stronger than than iOS devices and aren't totally encased in alumina-silicate glass the iPhone uses and when they do use glass it's gorilla glass which is many times stronger than alumina-silicate glass the iPhone uses. So basically android devices can withstand falls better than the iPhone (some being better than others).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Has anyone mentioned, no freakin' back button on the iPhone? I've had a few users complain about that in my presence.... must be maddening!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I agree with you about sdcards, but part of it is also the psychological aspect of "I can!" even if it's never actually done. People like us really get use out of that sdcard slot, but the average joe has the card that came with the phone still in it.

The psychological aspect those same people who can't be bothered to learn anything more then they know about it makes the few distinct things it does different more important to cling to and cry louder in a typical apple fanboi vs average android user comparing phones in a bar or something.

If you paint the average user in the ignorant light that(mostly fairly from what i've seen too, ) you do, then this strawman argument on their behalf carries even more weight, because it's one of their few pieces of ammunition to save face against "O GREAT IPHONE" (lol'd at that btw - it does set the mentality) their actually using it means nothing, it's just the knowledge that they can we care about here.

----

As far as iTunes, I haven't met a single flesh and blood real (not ethereal like all of you online people lol) person that hasn't hated the living daylights out of iTunes.

Again, these are the same types of people that you painted earlier - people that may or may not have an android phone and maybe an ipod touch or something, or an iphone. Their friends might have one or the other of the above devices.

I've heard nothing but the strained frustration of loss from every single one of them to a man (or woman) based on contact with another accounts i-device or host computer...

(...which i'd generally refer to as 'infected' with iTunes on it, because the average user and a foreign i-device = computer owner, device owner, or both losing everything...)

...because these same people that only know what they know and want to learn no more don't even know that you can turn off auto sync and so on, or the rules of when you can or can't connect the devices and not be shedding a tear a few minutes later.

We all either know or would figure out within minutes of opening the app how to handle everything correctly with at least a 90%+ success rate on execution.

The average user? Install iTunes, synce device. 3 weeks later friend comes over. Their i-device gets plugged into the computer. Chaos ensues.

And herein lies the rub, because you are exactly right and the scorn you drop here is the exact equal to:

...the person who takes the time learning how to operate a vehicle properly hear someone say " and they asked me when the last time I changed my oil was, and I said 'what oil?' "

tit for tat that's an exact frame of reference to the perspective you cast for consideration, so it really comes down to:

Where is the person who - after doing the most, and also importantly the most common, maximum level of unintentional damage the most upset? Apple or Android?

The iTunes thing I think everyone would agree puts the saddest person in the Apple camp, also since that burns many people very often.

If you didn't have the time to get your post up before she finished its alright, I'm overwhelmed myself when I see the amount of attention I got from this community:)

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Education and sharing knowledge is what XDA is built on.

I do not want to see this devolve into a petty apple bashing thread, because there is a real message to be had if we agree with the things mentioned above.

This serves to illustrate the importance of treating new people with the ability to look back to when you were like that.

At some point we all had to decide to see what was a little further down the rabbit hole, but the average person that isn't into computer tech loses 2/3rds of their common sense and IQ the moment they sit down at a terminal.

It's just a pre-concieved fear of the unknown, not knowing what you can't do that results in breaking or just messing the whole thing up.

People that aren't familiar with this stuff can be paralyzed by the fear of doing something catastrophically wrong - often to the extreme. If they show up here and start asking questions, then they are taking steps to conquer that and become that person who changes their oil.

This should serve as a good reminder of what it was like for you, whoever you are reading this, when you first started wondering how to tinker with your device.

Here and there you can see when someone forgets what it was like and loses that perspective - Remember this, though, you no longer respect what you can do if you forget what it's like not to be able to.

Take a minute or have an extra shred of patience when someone new starts asking questions, you could be nurturing someone becoming what you are.

The best place to send anyone new first is right Here.

When I connect my Xperia Neo to the PC Companion say available and update for your phone, I accept update, when the process iniciate stop and emerge a window say:

"Your IP address is not allowed to update/repair brown phone. Please connect to the SEMC network to update your phone." Close.

I have Android Version 2.3.2 and the update say:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Nice, you have brown phone. Remove battery and check on sticker on phone, most likely you will see prototype :)

you can try with SEUS, I don't expect it to work but you can try.

Don't know if flashtool supports brown phones, I would first ask creator of flashtool. I expect it to work, but ask first ;)

if it says prototype, I would first check what fw is on the phone, is it branded, what region.

some prototypes can die if you flash new fw on them.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
That's really a big worry...he must have got the phone before the official release...from some online vendor.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] johnraziel:
Oh man. I guess you really need to flash it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Well, not really a big worry. Some people want to have prototypes :)

Prototypes, from phone models which actually released, meaning you can find that phone model in store, can sometimes be final products, meaning even though they are prototypes, they can be flashed and used like other units. I have one W715, it's final version of prototype, so it can be flashed, but it wasn't in store :)

Prototypes, from phone models which aren't released are more likely tricky, it need to be careful with them.

If it's working as it is, and if it isn't branded fw, I wouldn't mess with it :)

Would like to hear OP, what is the situation with phone. And did he bought it in store, or get trough some other ways :)
