[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Long time flasher, first time poster. I wanna first thank everyone on the site for making all of my phones so bad ass.

My question is this... I'm running SKYICS, newest base, with the D10 update and everything is running stellar. I flashed the ucld2 modem and seemed to get better signal in my area using the last modem. Can I flash the earlier ICS modem and keep the battery mods?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dixit:
You can always flash other modems without affecting the rest of the ROM. The modem portion is on a different partition anyways. So you will be fine in flashing to an older modem without affecting anything on the visual or settings side of the ROM, only change will be a different modem.

Where are the radio choices for this phone? are there any? i havent seen one!

My friend has had the photon for a while and he has always complained about dropping calls, or sms's not going through, I just got done rooting and unlocking it, flashed CM7 and he said it is worst. Anyone out there got some suggestions?
[Motorola Photon 4G] valentinoh:
What version build is on the phone?

Google talk me for help or question. @ valentinohband@gmail.com
[Motorola Photon 4G] BAleR:
well, im not exactly sure what was origionaly on it but I know it was 2.3.4,

but now it has "[KANG][ROM] CM7.2 by Photon Dev team 4-23-2012" on it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] valentinoh:
Hmm, is he using it with sprint or another carrier like cricket?

I would just flash him back to stock have sprint update his profile and prl.

And if everything is fine flash custom roms.

Google talk me for help or question. @ valentinohband@gmail.com
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
Be careful letting sprint update your phone. Once you update to 2.3.5 you will be stuck with a locked bootloader till someone figures out how to unlock it. The basebands (radio) currently used by most roms is the one from 198_7 which is 2.3.4. As far as I know there are only 3 basebands for the photon and none of them make that much of a difference in reception if any at all. Currently 198_7 is your golden ticket for any kind of xda support.

Sent from my Photon Q using ultramegaextremeXDA
[Motorola Photon 4G] androiderb89:
Been using KANG CM7.2 since the beginning on a non sprint network in India. Never had a problem. The rom is almost stable. 99%... And i neither had an issue with the network data nor call drops.

There's a network selection option in

Settings -> Wireless and networks -> Mobile networks -> Network Preference right ??
[Motorola Photon 4G] ourtut:
I have a photon on Verizon and I get 1-3 bars in my basement and once in a while I drop a call but when I leave the basement I get 3+ bars ALL the time. Are you sure you or your friend has strong signal at all ( if possible try another sprint phone).
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lancerz:
The photon has one of the best, if not the best radio of all sprint phones. Unless he is in a bad area for sprint then I don't know what to tell ya.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Updating the PRL and Profile is totally different from updating (upgrade) to 2.3.5.

I see the point of the suggestion to update profile/prl, it can make a difference in call/reception quality.

For those who are concerned about going back to stock for profile/prl updates there is another way. When on rooted stock use an app such as TiBu and freeze the upgrader/updater apk's. Then create a nandroid backup. If you need to go back to 198_6 or 7 for whatever reason you are safe.

My MoPho's in the kitchen sink!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] BAleR:
Well looks like hes SOL, when he first got it I did update the prl and profile and it didnt do much. Figured a custom rom would help. But his photon is on sprint, and his girl has the same exact phone and she has all the same exact problems he has. Like droped calles, and also the phone became very sluggesh over time, one of the worst phones i've ever used, and i've used at least 15 or 20 different android phones on all 4 major carriers foor a substantial amount of time. Sorry to say it, but its just my opinion. So... I think its just a bad area concidering the evidence. But anyway, hes been away for a few days and I cant get to the phone so I can't check anything. Thanks for the reply's though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Soltice:
Hello everyone!

I've been searching and searching for a way to run AutoDesk's Sketchbook Pro on my Galaxy Note and I've run into pretty much nothing but people mentioning that they doodled this or that with Sketchbook Pro but no real method on how to get it on the device.

I had it on my EVO View and it's absolutely fantastic for on-the-go sketches and artwork, but I sold the View in favor of the gNote's portability and the wacom digitizer.

I haven't been the least bit dissapointed, but I am a little irked that I can't seem to find a way to get Sketchbook Pro to work. I have the Mobile version installed, but the lack of pressure sensitivity is murderous.

I've tried several roms including Noteworthy and Saruon's, and I currently have Hybrid v4 on there but still... Market states it's incompatable and I haven't found a way to get just the APK to try and install it with Hybrid's tablet mode. I did get Photoshop Touch running on the Note with a modified APK and that works rather well... I just want me some Sketchbook Pro now.

Anyone have any suggestions or advice to get it rolling on the gNote?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] circuit.007:
I used to be one saurom but got fed up with all the incompatible with yourself device issues. Even Samsung apps was incompatible. I decided to revert back to stock rom and it was a great decision. Since then I've had no compatibility issues.

If stock is not an option for you I'm pretty sure if you download the apk online and side load it should work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Soltice:
I don't have a single problem reverting to stock or another ROM, but as it stands Sketchbook Pro is incompatible with the Note by default. I'm not sure what the market is reading for incompatibility, so I'm not even sure if I can build.prop spoof it into letting me download it natively.

But I figure if I can get Photoshop Touch, also rated for tablets only, to run on the gNote... I feel that Sketchbook Pro should be able to as well, right?

I can't even find a way to safely get the APK off the market without using a fishy Chrome plug in, either. Then again, I could be looking in the wrong place.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kevinallen4325:
Sketch book works fine for me. Running the hybrid rc4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
HUH? Im on completely stock, never been rooted Gingerbread and I have SBM Pro running on my i717 AT&T Note. In fact, it just got a major update today for pressure sensitivity.

To be honest, I have no idea how SBM got on my phone in the first place, I bought my phone brand new and I dont recall purchasing the app, I thought it came stock on the phone. But I mustve bought it and installed it cause its on my phone and running and is uninstallable, I just played with it a few hours ago.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
huh. didn't even know Sketchbook existed. thanks guys.

installed fine on my Hybrid Rom w/tablet mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
Ok silly question, what's the difference between Sketchbook Pro and Sketchbook Mobile?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cmunho:
Basically, Mobile is the phone version and Pro is the tablet version. There are differences in the interface and features as well.

FYI, Sketchbook Mobile was updated last night and now features pressure sensitivity for the Note on stock GB. Works well too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mlhope:
I know this is probably an old thread, buy I'd like to rewritten the discussion about Pro on the Note.

Mobile is great for what it is, but like the OP, I also got used to Pro on my HTC Flyer. Some features that really enhance productivity include the ability to save custom brushes to the radial menu, and being able to transform a selection within a layer(rather than the entire later itself).

I've paid for the Pro version in the play store, so I sideloaded it onto my Note. It has problems with the device's resolution, it seems, because there are display and digitizer calibration issues. I'm wondering if there's any way to edit the apk to remedy this..?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Is there a fix? I live in the middle of the woods so I have to tether for an internet connection or just plain use my phone which is fine by me but my phone constantly gets stuck just blinking the upload data arrow or it will hold it there steadily. My data won't work what so ever until it decides to upload and download I've heard of others having this issue but couldn't find an actual solution. Called Verizon but they just say oh yea your service isn't good enough there so get used to it. However my friends gnex works fine here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
No ideas?
[HTC One S] Gambler_3:
What I am looking for is a compact phone not a mini TV like the one X or galaxy S3.

My options are one S, xperia S and galaxy S2. One S is overall the superior but annoyingly it is severely gimped by HTC in the storage. Why wont they release the 32GB version and charge a bit more for it? :confused:

What does HTC think that I am gonna buy the one X if I want more memory? No HTC there are plenty of other companies fighting to get my $ and there are plenty of phones other than the one X and one S.

Samsung has already sent HTC to the distant second in the android camp and yet they act like they can gimp their second best phone in something so essential as storage. It is one thing not having a technological edge over your competitor okay fine but these sort intentional things to bottleneck your phone are just ridiculous.

The one X is beat by S3 but the one S seems to rule it's category of 4.3" phones. Hurrah HTC for not realizing you had a real winner with the one S. 10GB USB storage is a joke for a phone that can record 1080p video and play all the latest games. :rolleyes:

At least they could have used unified storage like the galaxy nexus to make 16GB total space somewhat more acceptable.
[HTC One S] HighRoIIer:
that is so true. But to bring only 16gb to europe seems to be more commen these days. The S3 will also only come with 16gb...

Gesendet von meinem HTC One S mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] Gambler_3:
Hmm S3 has 16/32/64GB variants and more importantly all of them have SD card slot so it doesnt matter even if one can only get 16GB one.
[HTC One S] Ashaman_Kupo:
We have less than 16gigs on our phone. To use,that is. Very disappointing
[HTC One S] stragent:
Fully agree!
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
if storage is an issue...get something else

problem solved!
[HTC One S] m.kochan10:
But it's not that easy choice. The thing is that you don't have that many alternatives in this phone/price class. U don't buy a phone just for SD-slot ;) . I would love to have so powerful handset like One S. I am sure that it'll have a decent devs' support (unlikely to xperia s) pretty soon. Lack of SD-slot makes purchase of One S a quite big compromise though. I think it was extremely stupid move of HTC. They were on a best way to have a crown king of 4.3" phones. If you consider all pros and cons one year old (and of course less powerful but still very solid) S2 doesn't seem a bad choice today.
[HTC One S] Gambler_3:
Yes exactly the S2 may have a slower CPU but other than that it equals or beats the one S in everything else. Better screen, SD card slot and removable battery.

SD card would be a non issue for me with 32GB and removable battery is an advantage but not really a significant one. Comon HTC still you have time, be wise and release a 32GB version.
[HTC One S] kyuubi_ac:
I really cannot understand you folks.. If you say that HTC is silly because they didn't meet your personal desires, then you're not thinking reasonably enough..

HTC clearly designed the One X as their power horse, not the One S. Due to quad core, NFC and hd display they thought it follows future trends and looking at the SGS3 they had quite the same idea. For those producers 4.8" is now the standard and they believe that people will adept to this, just like they always do. So the One S is not designed to catch power users who would sell their souls for any modern invention, but simply the rest. So it kept 4.3" and to have something special, it got this beautiful design. Neither HTC nor Samsung would have expected even power users to deny 4.8" because of terms of usability. We can be grateful that they got this amazing S4 for the One S because this is, what makes it a competitor to those power horses since quad cores are not nearly fully supported.

BUT: If you produce a high class and a middle class model, then you simply HAVE to make differences to push the max. amount of consumers towards your more expensive high class model. Producers like HTC are well doing in statistical analytics and they just calculated that most people out of the target group for the One S would accept the tradeoff with 16 GB storage. Solo many people complained about the storage, nevertheless ended up buying the One S and made HTC proof. :rolleyes:

For me the storage is more than enough. I am making compromises with my smartphone. I have other devices and do not have to carry around my whole library on my phone.
[HTC One S] zeroprobe:
Lets wait for a kernel hack and maybe we can repartition the space. I don't need 2gb internal storage, only 1gb so this would be a little help.

Also if USB host mode can get enabled, if we are taking recording a few HD videos, we will be able to offload them. Not ideal but a workaround. It wouldn't be so bad if we did actually have 16gb storage, but by default were left with 10gb usable space.

Apparently 4gb is used for the O/S and Sense. This can certainly be halved for me. So hopefully we will be able to get 13gb of usable storage space.
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
Most smartphones come with a high / unlimited data plan, So users can just upload **** to dropbox or similar, and download some new stuff.. All my pics and videos are automatically sent to the cloud, so i dont need them on my phone 24/7..

And if you dont have unlimited data, Almost everywhere has wifi, and even some carriers include free wifi hotspots.. So for me its absolutely fine... However i do feel a bit ''cheated'' after realising the whole 16gb wasnt useable... I would have imagined it to be about 20gb - 4gb for system/apps whatever and 16gb for the actual user...

but thats life, find a workaround if you really want this phone, the rest of us did
[HTC One S] m.kochan10:
I've never said that HTC in general is silly(they made a stupid move :) ). Hold on your horses. I just think that 16 gb of memory (10 gb user available) is a joke when a hq photo weighs 3 mb, and a nand backup approx. 1 GB (Well AOSP based a half of it). It's not about meeting my personal desires. Either SD-slot or more than 16 gb of internal storage is definitely NOT a luxury in 2012 (and especially not for a popular and one of the most expensive android phones). And lack of possibility to extend it is IMO a step backwards. I am aware that One X is a flagship, but come on it doesn't mean users that prefer 4.3" have to "shut up, be grateful" and do not demand anything more than it was brought in 2011. I do not expect a quad-core CPU, it's not my goal. But Galaxy S2 standard with something faster than Mali 400? Why shouldn't I? It's 2012.

For some users it is enough with 10 GB of storage and I respect that. For me is not. I flash a lot of software, I play with theming, and thus I need a lot of free space for roms, mods and nand backups (Sometimes I restore different backups several times a day), + some 3-4 gb for music (not everything can be found on spotify) and video-files.

I still think HTC One S is a very interesting device with huge potential to become a legendary phone, but as any other handset it has its cons that should be taken into consideration before I make my final decision about purchase.
[HTC One S] Gambler_3:
One X has the HD screen and quad core CPU to lure power users. It doesnt take a power user to not be happy with 10GB storage.

Why would HTC want to sell a one X instead of one S? It's not like the one S is some low end phone. A user chooses either phone and it's win-win for HTC. I think the main purpose of the one S to be an option for those who dont like big phones.

And I wont be buying a 16GB one S, I just made the thread in a very naive hope that maybe someone at HTC would notice lol.

Cloud storage is BS for everyday usage. Even if one has unlimited it sucks battery.

And it's also an extra element of file management that I would rather not have to deal with.
[HTC One S] m.kochan10:
Exactly, One S is HTC's second most expensive device! The crown king of smartphones' world in 2011 was a 4.3" device. Today all flagships are 4.6"+ but it doesn't mean that 4'3" suddenly became low ends with no chances for further development.

I guess it's only Sony that sees the demand for powerful handsets with smaller screens- and I am grateful for that :)
[HTC One S] kyuubi_ac:
@m.kochan10: I absolutely agree with you that the storage might become quite little regarding the usage of some of us. And I really don't like HTC to announce a phone with 16GB if there are only 10GB for free purpose. It's quite normal that those storage sizes never are promoted exactly and I'm aware of the fact that you actually can calculate this way since the other GBs actually do exist, but it's not fair regarding people thinking they'll have about 16GB for their media or what else.

There are right and false points in those statements IMHO. You're right that e.g. 32GB internal storage wouldn't be luxury and practicable even without additional costs for the device. But I actually worked for a lot of companies which had to make such decisions and I can guarantee that this is a calculated, strategical, economical decision. The simply want to make differences between those two devices larger. Why?

Because it means $$$.. Those two devices have most probably the same costs of production, the One S most likely even is more expensive in production and $100 difference per sold device mean a huge amount of capital. Folks I don't want to say that you should "shut up and be grateful", of course not. But complaining about economical decisions of a global player won't change a thing until they sell their devices. The don't give anything about what we think as long as they sell those devices and earn money. Selling the One X is far more lucrative. We simply have to think about the fact, that more than 80% of all world wide consumers actually don't give that much about tech spec as we do here. They like to see and feel a cool, slim, new device that has on letter huge numbers like 12mp cam, 100gb storage and 4ghz octa core cpu's not even knowing what that would be mean but having something to show off with in front of others. But they do not enter forums like this one, the do not root the device, they do not have nandroid backups, custom roms etc. Regarding this we even on Android are the minority. The average user will not complain about 10gb as long as she is able to put some of her music on it, shoot some pics and vids while on the road and installing most popular apps. And if you let people (who did not buy the flagship) choose between a 10mm-device with SD slot and removable battery and a 8mm-device with fixed storage and battery, most average users would choose the slim one. It's all about numbers and $$$, not about what HTC would be able to do. They're simply not willing and have reasons for this.

Regarding SD cards:

I appreciate it to avoid them since they are slow, not state of the art anymore and are trouble makers in any purpose you can think of. Of course from the users point of view it's nice to have extendable and removable storage that is quite cheap as well, but developers actually hate them because app development suffers from this. It's just like always: We have pros and cons here.

So I just want to make sure that I don't want to tell you that it's cool that we only have 10GBs, but that HTC has of course thought about this and that they have clear reasons for their decisions ($).
[HTC One S] aza314:
Really? Most people that I know have 1GB/month dataplans.

And as for universal wifi - this is sorely lacking as well.

Moreover, the first rule of travel: never rely on networks :)

I think that HTC should have made 16GB available to the user and that would have been fine for me - 10GB is a bit small. But I understand why they didn't.

Drawbacks of a microSD slot:

*SD card speed confusion

*battery drain issues (different cards have different current consumption)

*cost and space of a card slot

*lots of people buying microSD cards that are fake or sub-par, thereby creating stability issues that are blamed on HTC, but in fact lie with the card.
[HTC One S] kyuubi_ac:
Good points ;)
[HTC One S] m.kochan10:
Now it's interesting discussion. I like that ;)

@kyuubi_ac I agree that manufacturers think first of all about average users that want to enjoy their shiny devices "out of the box" and I understand their decision from a strategic, and microeconomic point of view. Average user doesn't know what is "recovery mode" not to mention a nandroid backup, and for such users 10 GB ... is not a tragedy as long as everything works as it is supposed to.

We...somehow more demanding users must consider every feature more carefully and it's almost always a compromise. Would you like to have a faster CPU/GPU or bigger storage and slightly slower processor? Better camera or unlocked bootloader and better devs' support? All about opportunity costs.
[HTC One S] kyuubi_ac:
Absolutely agreeing. ;)
