[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
Was it on WIFI most of the time? What about out and about on 3G/4G?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ascertion:
Is this sprint version??? Flashed trinity and drained 20% in 25 mins of screen use. I think I'm going back to the et4g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gr33nd3vil:
Trinity kernal takes 2 days to work fully...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
That is right up there with erasing battery stats to calibrate your battery.
[Motorola Droid 4] davwman:
All you Droid 4 owners, how is this thing? What does the future hold for the Droid 4?
[Motorola Droid 4] jy3ng4:
I like it a lot...and now that the fastboot files have been released I like it even more. Having said that...I think this will likely be my last Motorola device. The locked bootloader has hindered development activity and that is a big part of what makes a device worth owning. I won't continue supporting a manufacturer that is so development/mod unfriendly and lies to us repeatedly about it.
[Motorola Droid 4] davwman:
But you can't deny the fact that the hardware is top notch. How is the battery life?
[Motorola Droid 4] antiochasylum:
You can deny it. The 4430 1.2 is a very weak dual core, as well as the SGX540. All old hardware. Not *top knotch* more middle end.

I'm talking about the radios pulling signal where others can't.
[Motorola Droid 4] teookie:
Love the keyboard. The screen sucks though.
[Motorola Droid 4] suggestedshot:
Even with a few stumbles, the Droid4 is quickly becoming my favorite phone. The build is sturdy enough to handle the abuse of working construction, but its not limited in its hardware or capability. I have had a few shortcomings with battery life, but this has been expected after going through a few phones.(Droid X, Incredible, DevourLOL)

The devs have put ALOT of work into this phone and its only getting better. Release of fastboot files and ever improving 4.0 builds are really making this thing a keeper.

If you have the patience to go through every direction, step by step and really make sure you're absorbing all instruction the devs are providing, you should have no problem accomplishing the impossible.
[Motorola Droid 4] bdsullivan:
simply put, if you need a keyboard this is your phone. Even pure stock this thing flies. Battery life is not as bad as some claim again pure stock I get 10-15hrs on a charge dependant on usage. On gummy ics I have gotten as much as 1day and 16hrs with lite usage (6hrs was when I was asleep).

Development has just begun now that the fast boot files were released so its only going to get better.

As far as the locked boot loader is concerned, it has its drawbacks but when you compare it to the benefits of a sturdy phone and excellent reception I will take the latter. Besides the boot loader has never stopped development and I don't see that changing.
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
I don't know what people really complain about with this phone. I have it and I love it. There should be no complaints of speed on this phone. As someone else pointed out, even on the stock firmware, the phone is extremely responsive. The biggest complaint seems to be about the screen, but I don't know why. It took me about a week to get completely used to it, and I don't have any complaints. I can tell you it seems to have been a good choice on Motorola's part; I had the phone screen on for about an hour and a half earlier, and the battery was still at 60%. Keep in mind that the Pentile display was chosen because it excels at being visible in direct sunlight. The extra white pixel makes it brighter and increases contrast without requiring a much brighter back light.

The keyboard is great, the cameras are actually both quite good, 4G speeds are excellent, build quality is fantastic, and even the stock firmware is quite decent as far as stock firmware goes. It has a notification LED, HDMI out, and all the other features you would expect of a good Android handset.

The development community has been wonderful, and we have 3 active ICS ports in progress (I am running one of the AOKP nightlies right now). There has been a little work on Gingerbread ROMS but not much because all the work is going to ICS.

Despite the people that are complaining, I think the Droid 4 is a very solid phone that is well built, has great hardware and features, and a very bright software future as well.
[Motorola Droid 4] lorddunlow:
I hedged forever before deciding on the D4. The biggest problem I had when I checked one out in the store was the screen. Good resolution (at least for me), but the ghosting was very distracting. I'm very glad I chose the D4 now because it is awesome. I've become used to the ghosting and everything else is awesome. Of course, I really like having a keyboard which was my main reason for getting this phone.
[Motorola Droid 4] tliebeck:
Best keyboard ever made. If you need a keyboard, it's the best phone available.

Screen isn't particularly pretty, but very good in direct sunlight.

Battery life is good but not outstanding (stock).

Browser performance is mediocre like every other Gingerbread phone.

I believe ICS ROMs are currently lacking video camera support. (this could be Droid3 only, but thought it applied to both).

Signal quality is very good, just like the Droid 1, 2, and 3.

Camera quality is decent but not amazing.

I've found Blur can be me made tolerable with nothing more than a third party launcher capable of hiding apps. You don't even need root.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Opera Mobile is a solution to the browsing issue. Sadly it does not work in ICS yet (no hw acceleration) but... then you get the faster ICS browsing anyway...
[Motorola Photon 4G] dre89:
I just moved and have yet to get my cable and net set up so I figured I'd fall back on good old Wifi Tether for Root, problem is it doesn't work

[Galaxy S III Android Development] E:V:A:
I think it's worth noting that anyone who has early access to this phone, also please take some high resolution internal pictures of the circuit board, and post links to them here, so that we can confirm the hardware used and search for undocumented chips etc. Also here is the Supercurio (?) live Google document for SGS3 internal specifications.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E:V:A:
GT-I9300 Service Manual

So we got the Service Manual! Thanks to the user renierx in this post.

However, the manual pages were seriously messed up and in several files, so I repackaged them in the correct order.

Download Here!

[or here, 121 pages, sections 1-9, 7zip, ~7.7MB]

Issues/Features

Block-Diagram (p.27) is probably fake since its an exact copy of that in the GT-I9100 Service Manual (and thus not showing NFC etc.)

MHL (SiI9244BO) chip and schematics is missing (but can be found in the GT-I9100 Service Manual)

U500 (MAX77686 EWE+T) is very unclear (p.78,82) but pin out names can be clearly seen on p.89.

Samsung part descriptions have been correctly (?) left intact on both schematics and in the parts list. (Thanks Samsung!)

Some of the chips without pin outs and not shown on the schematics of the GT-I9100 Service Manual, can be found in this manual. Great cross reference! (I.e. U108/RF6590 p.94)

I have not been able to find the "Region Selector Jumpers" in the schematics (as shown in post #10 below)

So now...

WE NEED INTERNAL HIGH-RESOLUTION PICTURES!

(We now got some thanks to Chipworks and iFixit!)

...So that we can verify the Service Manual.

I will eventually produce a complete parts list with datasheets in the Hack-Pack...​
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ttblondey:
So it does not differ any region,Telco or country we resides am I right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E:V:A:
^^ As long as your device is labelled as a "GT-I9300", only the firmware should differ.

EDIT: Actually the schematic doesn't seem to differ, but there are some solder jumpers as shown in Post#10 below, that determine region in some way, still unknown.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kulzboy:
Not sure if anyone posted but here's the internal teardown from ifixit

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Teardown/9391/1#.T8k3btVYsuh

EDIT: More details from Chipworks

http://www.chipworks.com/en/technic...downs/2012/06/inside-the-samsung-galaxy-siii/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E:V:A:
^^ I'm slightly disappointed with the fact that iFixit now just gets their pictures from Chipworks. Before, they actually made a good complement to each other. In addition I'm a bit dissappointed in the quality of those pictures as they are not as close to the PCB as is the SGS2 photo coverage. Thus we still need better closeups!

But I am grateful for any pictures at all and also thankful to those websites that attempt to provide us with useful details!

Thanks Chipworks!

Thanks iFixit!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] E:V:A:
Undocumented Region Related Solder Jumpers

So while having a first look at the i9300 mobo, the 3 region related jumpers, jumped out into my eyes like a glowing iron! AFAICT, they seem undocumented in the Service Manual, and elsewhere. I'd like to know more about these and what chip and pins they are connected to.

Obviously (?) the region codes refer to:

EU = Europe

AU = Australia

IN = India

This is how it looks:

I saw that on the Ifixit teardown. I have no idea. Maybe they simply change the moniker of the model number or something.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Entropy512:
This is unfortunately not true.

For example, it's absolutely confirmed that the internals of the AT&T and T-Mobile variant will be COMPLETELY different (Snapdragon S4).

VZW version unknown.

Samsung has routinely made carrier variants vastly different from the international variant over the past year. The SGH-I777 was the last carrier variant device to have any internal resemblance to its international sibling at all.

The SGH-I727 (Skyrocket) and SGH-T989 had zero commonality with the I9100/I777.

Same for the SGH-I717 (AT&T Note) vs. the GT-N7000 (international Note) - They share a name and external dimensions, but have almost no internal commonality.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Damienoid:
Would these codes refer to the variants of the SGS3?

EG. Australia uses the 9300T version on two of it's networks, India use the 9300G version, and Europe use the international version.

The 'T' version is designed for specific 850 mhz networks that are used by two carriers in Australia and elsewhere in the world, but the international version works just the same on any network in Australia, so go figure :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] popfan:
Just note on the US S3:

Yes, it will have a duel-core Snapdragon S4 and have 2gb of RAM available and will come in 16GB / 32GB variants from different carriers.

how can i set volume to full from speaker even when headset is on?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Do you mean the speaker that would play music out loud, with no headphones plugged in? When headphones are plugged in, no sound should play through the phones speaker, only through the headphones.

yea, media volume wouldnt play through phone speaker. but alarm and incoming calls will always play through speaker even with headset on.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Strange, because my phone kills off all sound from the phone speaker when the headphones are plugged in. No idea then.

[HTC Wildfire S] jjdoctor:
Hi guys,

first of all I have been using HTC Sets and Xperia Phones and have Cooked Several ROMs.. So i know much but this HTC Wildfire S I boought for my Dad who is least interested in MODs and other stuff. he just plays small puzzle games and reads mail, checks weather.. and ofcourse calls/sms

The thing is that its running Damn toooo slow now so I decided to S-Off it and Root and flash a stable Custom ROM based on Stock ROM either 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 but SHUD BE STABLE..

Surprisingly I found that Phone is already S-Off

Phone Details are

Hboot 1.03

MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

MICROP-0451

RADIO-7.46.35.08

Jun 2, 2011

So i guess I need to just Root and install recovery..

Can someone just link me to ROOT procedure and most stable Stock Custom ROM for Wildfire S?

thanks awaiting...:)
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
Check the index thread at the top of the general section. You will find all you need there
[HTC Wildfire S] thelegbra:
i'd wait a few weeks for cm9 release if i were you. it will be an alpha but even the pre-alphas were pretty stable and fast, i assume the releases will be perfect for daily use.
[HTC Wildfire S] jjdoctor:
CM9 have poor camera and really u can never call them stable... I just need a Sense ROM as its for my dad and he likes Sense weather..

Btw.. I have flashed CWM recovery, Rooted phone but When I flash a sense 3.5 ROM I get reboots instantly on installing apps from Market... do i need to update Hboot for that as mine is 1.03 which seems old... dont know whats the reason.. tried two ROms and same problem...

Can someone guide me to a pure Stock ROM.. No changes made... with Stock kernel ofcourse...
[HTC Wildfire S] thelegbra:
http://www.filefactory.com/f/7b4aa0a541dcf00f/

here's a link to the stock rom archive :)

if you ever want a custom rom with sense, i'd recommend benjamin's .sense. many people use it and it's considered stable.

well for cm9, the camera was glitchy until the last nightly but it's fixed now except for the preview, that's why i suggested you wait a few weeks. there are people waiting to port miui onto that cm9 and it has a cute look and suits family members great in my opinion :)

imo, i'd go for cm9 when it's stable and use fancy/beautiful widgets for the sense look your father's looking for. but it's your choice :)

hope you can find what you are looking for.
[HTC Wildfire S] jjdoctor:
thanks mate for the Links... that was exactly what I was looking for.. I want to Flash the Asian WWE but cant get to download.. everytime I open it, it says Free Slots not available for download..

btw.. if I managed to download, Will it bring S-ON back or will have no effect on Bootloader Lock?
[HTC Wildfire S] thelegbra:
if it was only a bootloader unlock, a flash to the hboot would mess with it but since your phone is s-off, i don't think you'd lose anything. (my answer is from what i've been reading from people's experiences on forums, i didn't experience it myself)

because people have been flashing ruus or hboot upgrades with s-offs and have been keeping them. cwm would be replaced by the stock recovery but you can still re-flash it, so i don't think that would be a problem.

but still, don't quote me on that since i can't really tell you you'd be safe 100% until i did such procedure myself.
