[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I've already been trying to see if there is a particular device worth porting from, either something easier to port for the amaze, or a solid one.. In the past I spent HOURS and HOURS trying to figure out where people are getting the original source from-- everything I found said that MIUI doesn't share their source, and I never did find out what people were building from!

This isn't a question that needs to be answered- as in some sort of troubleshooting(which is what I understand the Q&A section to be for). "How do I..", "where is the.." those seem like questions. And I am NOT trying to be a smart ass, please correct me if I am wrong.

This seems like a discussion that can be had.. literally it is a thread for people to express their opinion about the T-mobile HTC Amaze 4g's future development.

Literally I am just trying to understand so I post appropriately in the future.

I spend more time searching XDA for answers to questions(think about 3 hours today) that got moved to a forum that resulted in the question never getting answered(like a development question getting moved to Q&A), and I just didn't understand what most of them got moved for..

I decided to stop using my SGS2 and got a acer iconia a200. So I love it it is grerat the battery life kicks ass. I havent even rooted it or anything. Anyway the only thing that it does not do is for some reason the sirius xm app in the market is not compatible with it. This is really fustrating for me because I use it all the time so now I have to carry around my phone still just for that. I can go on dolphine browser and use the sirius xm flash loader app in the market but then I cant use the tablet for anything else if I shut off the screen or go to anything else the audio stops.

I was able to extract the .apk out of a nandroid for my t989 and get it running on the acer but it wont play. It lets me sign in but then it wont go any further. The next thing I will try is to put ICS on my G2x and install it then extract it from therere because it is a tegra 2 just like the acer but I dont think that will work either.

So does anyone have any ideas on how to get this done? Anyone who can get this done will be rewarded nicely. I'm sure it is not that hard for someone who knows what they are doing unlike me. Just pm me or send me an email and let me know.

Thank you,

Charlie
[Android General] mojorisin7178:
Well I got it to work and then the next day it showed up in the market. They were updating the app which I knew but I didn't realize that they just did not get to the tablet version yet my friend who could not get it on his was able to go to the market and get it. So problem solved.
[LG Thrill 4G] kakarott.saiyan:
Hi friend' si recently updated my phone but the update as eraded the baseband version in my thrill.... the imei is also gone..... so please needed help asap

thank you
[LG Thrill 4G] poyensa:
Please use search function. Most of the questions are already solved. If you dont find it please post in an existing thread with similar topic, so you help to other members to find the information. Dispersed information helps to nobody. Thanks.
[Captivate General] b-eock:
So the Galaxy S III has been unveiled.

My PRO's= Screen Resolution, processor, GPU, RAM, memory.

My CON's= Screen type (SAMOLED -_-)

I can't really think of anything else. Comment on your pro's and con's if you would like!
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
Pros

1. Its Samsung

2. The screen. Any HD screen is better than our cappys lol and I like black being black

3. MicroSD and Removable battery

4. Multitasking = WOW

5. Embrace of NFC

Cons

1. $$$$$ for international version
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
Oh and if you guys are going to purchase this beast, what color would you choose:

Marble** white or pebble blue?

And if you're going for a case or leave it as is?
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Yeah. Its amazing. I can't believe the mass amounts of people that say its ugly, garbage, the same.

Granted that 2GHz quad core A-15 would've been worth waiting long but its nice.

HD SAmoled.

Up to 64GB plus up to 64GB card. 2100MAH battery

So well integrated and intuitive.

I hope to obtain one in the near future.
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Def blue
[Captivate General] inningsdefeat500:
Guys, I read some comments on another site that US/Canadian would have a lower CPU to accommodate LTE? I didn't understand that, could someone clarify
[Captivate General] Red_81:
I didn't use my upgrade on the SII so I'll be planning on picking this one up in the Pebble Blue. I just can't do white devices. Maybe it reminds me of my childhood with all the Beige/White systems.
[Captivate General] shaolin95:
Performance seems to be pretty good, a good setup from my Captivate so I am all for that.

So while I would have loved a A15 quad or even better GPU, well, we always want more so I think I will be happy with it. It does not seem as the Nvidia thing is catching up so I hope the whole Tegra exclusive crap is over otherwise, having a super GPU when the games are getting better features only for Tegra wont help me much.

Not sure why someone cannot be happy with the screen. Black is black and everything is punchy. I have a HD projector calibrated so I can be picky but I love Samsung screens.

Now the Q is..how long before stupid ATT brings it here.
[Captivate General] WindRunnerXC:
USA releases are slotted for June. More info, as always, pending carrier announcements. Those will probably come when their world tour stops off in NYC, from what I'd guess.
[Captivate General] Pmaw10:
man I am way behind
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
How can one hate that curved metal finish on the side. It's very sexy.

The whole camera-design thing: who actually looks at their camera lens on a daily basis? Its always behind the phone where you'll rarely ever see it. People these days...
[Captivate General] shaolin95:
Seriously when I read people cons...being about looks I feel the same way...come on now.
[Captivate General] hbk19:
Definitely looking forward to upgrade.

There's been speculation that to accommodate LTE in the North American release, they might go with an S4 instead of the Exynos, which is also an excellent processor (though I would have liked to experience the Exynos).

Still, it's almost time to upgrade for me. It'll be nice to experience LTE.
[Captivate General] rheicide:
I'm totally in love with this beast. Its hardware and features are awesome.

As soon as I could get one, my beloved Cappy could then take a step back and be my backup :D
[Captivate General] NightHawk877:
My Captivate has served me well. It has never failed me. Hate to retire it, but I want the GS3.
[Captivate General] shaolin95:
I agree. Never had a phone that lasted this long without me wanting to upgrade..and the way new Roms and OCing kept extending its life its pretty awesome. :)
[Captivate General] Planswalker89:
Was anxiously awaiting this thing since even though my cappy is beyond amazing, it's begun to feel its age a bit and I'm totally looking forward to a new phone.

I am totally not disappointed and can't wait to finally get my upgrade when it comes out.

The screen is awesome, and since I never got to see super amoled + I can't say I'm going to miss it. I just hope the GS3 is anywhere near as good to me as my cappy has been - although I'm going to miss the build of this phone cause it was awesome.
[Captivate General] TheSoaresan:
I love the specs...but I'm a tad disappointed by its aesthetics... I mean it looks like a cheaper quality phone with all that plastic...on the other hand HTC one x looks like sex
[Captivate General] falacer:
Same here didn't use my upgrade yet but will wait to see what the US versions specs are. Might be changing from AT&T to Sprint soon as wife contract is up.
[Captivate General] JBM12G:
I was really disappointed with the Galaxy S3. I will most likely be upgrading to the HTC One X. In almost every situation the One X beats or is a tie with the S3.

Screen: Most reviews say that the One X has a better screen then the Galaxy Nexus, so I believe that with the S3 having essentially the same screen as the nexus the One X's will be better.

Processor/SOC: The S3 will likely have an S4 in Canada so in that case it is a tie. If the S3 does have the quad core in Canada it will probably not be that noticeable of a difference.

Software: Both will likely have great Rom development, but in a worst case scenario, I can live with Sense 4.0, I cannot live with that hideous touchwiz.

Hardware: (IMO) The One X is gorgeous. The S3 is meh. Also, the S3 has a menu button, what were you thinking Samsung! I don't care about a removable battery or sd card slot.

Camera: I'm guessing it will be about the same (Don't care much about camera).
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
But the GS3 has those beastly features. Have you watched demos from the Samsung unpacked event? If you're going to buy a 200-300$ phone, you should get as much features as the price. Btw, the HTC one X for AT&T will have locked boot loaders on the initial release.
[Captivate General] JBM12G:
I have watched the Unpacked Event. I don't see myself using Samsung additional features. The Rogers One X bootloader unlock works fine and there is already a Canadian Dev working on a Rom.
[Captivate General] geokilla:
This. Plus the fact that I don't really need the power of the Galaxy S III, so I'll probably go for HTC One S instead.
[Captivate General] ptesmoke:
woohoo my rogers hox is in the mail!
[Captivate General] kangi26:
I don't see any problems with the SIII specs. Kind of a MINOR bummer, not getting the Quadcore; but I'd much rather have LTE. The S4 will be fast enough. I like the screen size, the Note is just too big for me, and my Captivate is getting a bit too small. The hardware is not off the charts, but I think some of the major changes they've made is in the software, now some of those new features look really cool

Personally, I'm really looking forward to it being released here in the US(someday)
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
HD Amoled is without a doubt a better choice to most. Its soc is stronger. Its camera is guaranteed better. It also comes with up to 64GB internal. You better believe they will get awesome roms. I definitely would not call it a tie in most areas, but One X is nice
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Its disturbing how many people say its cheap quality because its plastic. Or any plastic galaxy phone. Plastic can most definitely be durable and nice quality. Its cheaper to manufacture. Good with heat. Easy to work with. Light weight. And not to mention the fact they use gorilla glass. Just because its plastic does not make it cheap grade
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
I wonder if AT&T would be nice to put two versions of the GS3: one for LTE and for HSPA+ just like they did with GS2. I don't have LTE in my city and I don't think it will be here till one or two years later.
[Captivate General] b-eock:
I am buying the International version as soon as I can off of This website. I don't like what how US carriers push updates. TOO LONG TO UPDATE!!!! So I will just get the international version and love it!
[Captivate General] bravomail:
AT&T HTC One X has locked bootloaders - per Slashgear website.

Beware!

Also it's worth checking international HTC One S for locked bootloaders - it's most likely to support AT&T LTE.

It's a major bummer from AT&T and HTC.
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
Me too. I'm going to go for the international GS3.

After witnessing the performance of Samsung's hummingbird processor, with proper adjustments, and all of the developers in this forum who made it reach its highest potential, I'm going for a "pure" Samsung hardware. Then my cappy can be my practice phone for development. Can't do it now cause I need it to work 24/7 as this is my DD. Lol
[Captivate General] JBM12G:
Lucky you :/ I have to wait until June.
[Captivate General] kangi26:
The

only

issue I have with the International version....... the chipset has NO support for LTE
[Captivate General] simple man:
Yeah, I agree. Plus the price is gonna be pretty high, and I kinda like having insurance on mine, I'm not sure how to insure it without going through AT&T
[Captivate General] killerxtreme:
Whats wrong with super amoled screen? I actually love and prefer the super amoled of my captivate vs other phones.. In fact one of the reasons I got it was cause it was so vibrant.. Sure it may not be as sharp as the SuperAMOLED+ but its still better than the power drain of an LCD screen..
[Captivate General] pizz0wn3d:
The problem people have with the display is its pentile display, which will probably be a nonfactor considering it's 720p.

Herp derp Captivate XDA Premium App.
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Agreed. Super Amoled Plus may be a little more sharp...but its HD and its Amoled. Overall still a win
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
Got some interesting news for you guys. Went to an ATT store today to check out the One X (which is an awesome phone, btw!), and asked the manager if he had any idea when the SGS3 would be arriving to the US. He said he doesn't know when they will officially be able to sell them, but ATT stores will be getting shipments of them on May 30th. Like all rumors, take it with a grain of salt, but here's to hoping that it arrives in the earlier half of June rather than the latter half.

Also, a note about the One X - after playing with one in person, I can see why people love it so much and why it got such great reviews on tech blogs. The polycarbonate body feels wonderful in the hand, and the screen is by far the most beautiful I have ever seen on a mobile device. I was very surprised by the color contrast and how dark the blacks were, and how near the surface of the display the pixels appeared to be. Such a shame that it only ships with 16gb onboard, no expansion slots and a locked bootloader. I can forgive most of the other faults with the phone: the bloatware and crappy ATT branding "enhancements", the gimped silver plastic camera bezel, the non-removable battery and Beans Audio by Dr. Doi, but I can't forgive the lack of onboard storage. Not without expansion slots, and not with ATT's data caps.

And just to keep with the theme of this thread:

SGS3 Pros

* Expandable storage, up to 64gb internal (though I doubt AT&T will offer a 64gb version, and if they do I expect them to rape both my mouth and wallet for it)

* Better audio chip than the derp that's in the One X.

* 4.8" screen (though not necessarily better than the One X's, I'll reserve judgement for when I actually see the SGS3 in person)

* Will most likely come with an unlocked bootloader. Samsung's history gives me no indication to believe otherwise at this point.

SGS3 Cons

* Crapware addons that spy on you through the camera. I don't want to be friends with my telephone, and I don't want it watching me while I sleep.

* Pentile arrangement. I used to think this was a non issue, but then I compared my captivate to my brother's SGS2 and realized that me being ok with it was simply because I got used to it and not because it wasn't noticeably worse.

* It looks boring and ugly. Despite what Samsung wants us to believe with the wind and pebbles nonsense, the shape was clearly designed by lawyers as a result of the Apple lawsuits, and not by some genuine inspiration. I'm REALLY hoping that ATT requests a different shell, like they did with the original Galaxy S.

review on galaxy s iii

pros: CPU, appearance

cons: front camera, screen
[Captivate General] TheSoaresan:
Its okay to use plastic...the captivate has plastic too...but the captivate looks wayyy better than the sgs3...
[Captivate General] mrx_rf:
Hoping S III at&t version will have different appearance as what happen on ori galaxy S (international & captivate).
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
I have to agree. The captivate is prollu the sexiest galaxy and the most unique designed one.
[Captivate General] bravomail:
on plastic SGS3

Just buy sleek skin. There'll be plenty of those. U will have protection as added bonus.
[Captivate General] jgaviota:
I didn't wait for the SGS3 and got the Galaxy Note a couple of months back.

I LOVE the Note :)

But I'm sure I would have loved the SGS3 also; it will be difficult to downgrade to a screen smaller than 5.3 now.

About the SAMOLED screen, I doubt pentile will be a problem with the SGS3 having such a high pixel density.

Most probably the SGS3 will have excellent battery life, judging by the size of the batt, and by the chipset manufacturing process.
[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
I think the phone looks gorgeous!

I was looking at a few videos.

I think that Sammy has thrown in some nice features:

The txt -> raise to ear -> Make a call option is pretty sweet.

That and how it tracks your eyes?

Larger screen size which I hope translates over here to the states when it is released.

My only thing is that if I were to get one the first thing I would want to do is ROM it to get rid of TouchWhiz - ugh still hate that interface!

But.. I'm too impatient to wait for the AT&T Nerfed version - so I broke down and got the HTC One X (*ducks*)
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Lmao!!!!!!! Duck and cover!!! :p
[Captivate General] III Man:
I agree. The captivate has a great profile... of course I have had a cover on my phone since I got it, so I never really see the profile so...
[Captivate General] ptesmoke:
dont feel bad....i got the HOX as well.
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Lol. No actually offence to the device, but when I see hox I think hoax.
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
I might have to go down that road too since my contract ends this month, though I really don't want to. I really like the screen on the One X, but the 9.93gb storage limit and S-ON are kind of a deal breaker for me. Cloud services are a major no-go with AT&T's ****ty data plans.
[Captivate General] simple man:
I agree about the deal breaker for the one x. I can upgrade anytime, but I'm gonna see what AT&T does to the S3, then decide what to do from there.
[Captivate General] kangi26:
I'm in the exact same boat.

I'm tempted to go in and look at the HTC, but I should really wait until the SGS III hits so I can put them side by side. Otherwise I might be tempted to get the HTC on the spot

I'm so weak when it comes to tech stuff!

Sent from an autonomous device
[Captivate General] askpcguy:
This. Also I am not happy with the delays in updates for the Captivate that AT&T had. But a newer phone would be great. It just needs miui support!
[Captivate General] kangi26:
Honestly, I could care less about the AT&T updates, I've been so completely impressed with the dev'a here that what AT&T does, software wise had little effect on me. I am steered away from the One because of the lockdown though

Sent from an autonomous device
[Captivate General] simple man:
Yeah, the Captivate has been a very impressive device hardware wise. It just took the talented developers here at xda to unleash the full potential of it. I've had soo much fun trying the different Roms. There's been so many good ones. I just hope that the S3 will have as much development, it's kind of hard to know until we see which processor we get on AT&T. Wishfully thinking Exynos, same as the international version.
[Captivate General] ConeyKiller:
Anyone going to wait and see/upgrade to one of Google's Nexus phones coming out in November hopefully. Supposed to run Jelly Bean. My contract isn't up until Oct. 24 anyways even though I can upgrade in June. Lol
[Captivate General] simple man:
I sure have thought about it, my contract's up in September. But I'm not sure there's any benefit to an unsubsidized phone economicly speaking. I'd still have to pay the same monthly payment to AT&T, because they're the only service worth a hoot where I live. Plus the S3 looks awfully good, as long as AT&T doesn't mess it up.
[Captivate General] ConeyKiller:
Only benefit is you can term service with them anytime you want. I would see it as them finally having to cater to the customer because you'd be off contract and they don't have you wrapped around their finger.
[Captivate General] Ozark_8125:
Quad - no LTE

Dual - LTE

Hard to imagine their flagship will revert back to no LTE.

Read on engadget anyways to compare the S4 and Quad core - no conclusive difference on benchmarks so I wouldn't sweat it. But of course... we always like more bigger and biggest... but the mob used .22, not .50 :eek: well... not totally right, but both work fine applied correctly..
[Captivate General] bravomail:
since I buy off contract

And the price settled in around 800 for GS3 and 540 for HOX... Lots of things I can buy for 260... Hmm...
[Captivate General] b-eock:
Its only $700 not $800

SGS III Expansys USA
[Captivate General] bravomail:
That only made it more complicated. Let's wait for US AT&T version with Snadragon S4. It may be even cheaper and have better battery life.
[Captivate General] b-eock:
I am getting the international version. I cannot wait for this phone XD haha I have the money anyway :P
[Captivate General] bravomail:
OK. Canadian version is getting 2GB RAM. and S4. This and bloated HTC Sense with its alternative multitasking.

And HTC One X is backorder on Amazon oddly.

I checked xda threads on HOX - designgears is there, and ROMs and kernels aplenty.

I'll wait another month I guess, for real end user reviews to show up and then see...
[Captivate General] Darkangels6sic6:
Samsung released the source code already. One of the things that make them so awesome
[Captivate General] animeware:
I 100% agree with you does source code allow mod to make custom roms easier.

I had a little discussion with the Premier Support folks about upgrading and my Unlimited Data plan. Let's hope they stay true to their word
[Captivate General] kuherrm:
i was thinkin since i am eligible for an upgrade that i might buy the us version on att and then sell it for a little more and then get the global version- hard to dish out almost 800 for a phone tho
[Captivate General] kangi26:
I didnt have any issues when I upgraded to my Captivate from my HTC Tilt. All youre really doing is adding your existing plan to a "Contracted" 2 year term
[Captivate General] Red_81:
I had read that changing from non-LTE to LTE was a "new plan" and they would hose you on the grandfathered unlimited plan.

3. If you’re grandfathered into an unlimited data plan, AT&T will allow you to keep that unlimited data plan when signing up for iPhone. But it appears, thanks to a reader, not any other device.

Take it with a grain of salt because it was according to one of their readers
[Captivate General] kangi26:
Well, I sure would hate to lose my grandfathered plan too. But I'll upgrade regardless.....
[Captivate General] sinichi21:
So it's today was thinking of preordering it but I am having second thoughts about the processor mostly like using skype videocall is it laggy on the snapdragon 1.5?
[Captivate General] kangi26:
For me?

Friday is payday=Preorder
[Captivate General] KreepyKen:
Is anyone else bothered by AT&T not selling a 32GB version? I think I'm going to leave AT&T over this issue. I hate Verizon, but it seems to be my best option.
[Captivate General] kangi26:
Not at all, I have my Captivate and a 16Gb card, and I havent come close to filling either, even with a bunch of music installed
[Captivate General] askpcguy:
A 32 gb micro SD card is cheap!

Today was unemployment payday meaning tomorrow is pre order day.

Only problem, I want a black device. White or blue ... how stupid.
