Really it was awesome......But had to revert back to original mode due to voice calling issue, but really Gmail, Email & Gtalk application in this mode was awesome.....!!

I wish if we could use these two application in its Tablate format with normal mode under 200 DPI.......!!

Hope u will give a try to it if possible

:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
Yesss......

I think I have enabled the Voice Calls too but once again got stuck at same point - Recompiling. Can somebody help me with this ?

I am using latest aapt, apktool 1.4.3 (also tried 1.4.2, 1.4.1), smali 1.3.2 and baksmali 1.3.2

Thanks :)

@shail

That will be great but not that easy as apps read density from Build.prop (as I know) and we can't have per-app density there. Although it can be achieved by directing apps to read Density from different config file but that's out of my scope :(

I have ideas but not skills to implement them. Sorry :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] shail139:
C'mon no need to say sorry.....

May be someday u will be able to implement ur ideas with the help of some senior members who are having knowledge of playing with these things...!!

what u did is awesome

Noob question : Does it work with Dirhu's CM9 ?

Great job anyways, this looks pretty amazing !
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
No, it shouldn't. Boot loop problem could happen. I will make one but first I want to enable Voice Call :(

And I am no Dev just learning :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rockyseenu:
LOL :) i liked your response. All the best man :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] OrbitalDroid:
Ok ok so I won't flash it until you release a CM9 version :P

Yeah I guess voice call is your priority lol, seems logic :D

But dude, seriously, who cares if you're not a dev ? Your work seems to be awesome ! And thank you for this ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mastercipo:
how do you set the lcd density, also can i install this on a rooted rom, seems like your instructions is missing some items. can you elaborate further TIA
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
Hi,

This will only work on AOKP ROM.

AOKP ROM has inbuilt option to change LCD Density.

Once you are on AOKP you will find instructions good enough but keep your suggestions coming :)

@all

Plz somebody help me to recompile Phone.apk. We might soon have a fully working TabletUI:)

Thanks!

Hi, I have flashed my S2 19100 from gingerbread to ICS via odin, when I go to change the CSC code to UK there is only one option which is KOR how can I put more options on my mobile so I can change it to my region. So I'm just wondering if it's possible to add an additional country to the Regional Settings, quite frustratring as Kies see mobile and I can do everythin on it except update firmware, not too bothered anout Kies I just want to know why and the CSC seems to be the only thing left to try - that is changing it...:confused:

thanks in Advance.

Always a difficult decision, choosing between the latest and greatest Android phone or the latest and greatest iPhone is a problem that every smartphone user faces at one point or another. Thankfully, the key to solving that problem isn't that far away when you know what to look for. Having both the Samsung Galaxy S III and Apple iPhone 4S here with us, we thought that we absolutely have to ...

LOL THE FIRST THING ... "The iphone has the benefit of comfort"

Actually, even after using my 4.0" Atrix, the 3.5" devices seem way too cramped for my hand

this video is terrible. hes claiming the iPhone has the better photo quality and hes not showing any photos.

Oh god I couldn't even finish watching that. Somebody please knock some sense into this man, or hire the "wake up" team :D
[Galaxy S III General] rtimoff:
Just sold my iPhone4s and waiting for SIII. IPhone is a nice "phone", nothing else. But for other things is too small. Before I have had GNex, SII, Sensation... 4.3 inches is really good size for my hands, but SIII isn't much bigger I think:D

[Galaxy S III General] yyhd:
meeeh, to each his own. how the phone feels in one's hand is completely subjective to the individual.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
I do agree with him that the body of the iPhone looks and feels like a luxury product. But for actual daily use, theres no getting around that the SIII is just better in every aspects other than SMS'ing or typing in phone numbers. Also the icon grid of the iphone is a pain in the a**. The ability to setup home screens is much more useful. And thats just the top of the software iceberg.

I have also come to love the light plastic phones by Samsung. It's hard to break and the warmer feel is just great.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
The reviewer does come off as a sort of fanboi. His "final verdict" didn't seem to take into account any specifics of the S3 at all, only a rehash of the usual android vs iphone stereotype.

These guys are still haunted by mr.ijobs
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
Check the website..... don't think its bias at all he makes some good points but at the end its obvious the gs3 is stronger in calls and multimedia, the only place the iPhone wins is design and camera stills not video.

So if he does love iPhone he isn't showing it in this review , let's not witch hunt.
[Galaxy S III General] krabman:
The iphone. A great product in its day. The iphone4 was a leading handset in its day. Sadly for the coolaid drinkers that day is long past. The iphone is surpassed in every meaningful way now. Unlike most here though I hope they up their game huge for iphone5 because the iphone is what made all of the many better handsets that can be had now happen. A **** hot iphone 5 means that everyone gets better. If they don't it means I get an iphone five. I love competition.
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
We are at a point were you can not make the phone any better in terms of screen resolution speed and battery life so I think phones after this will be pretty similar. I don't expect anything death shattering from the iPhone 5 . Maybe a bigger screen.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
Er, while I don't claim to be an expert on Moore's law, I doubt you have good grounds for that claim either. Both screen technology and processor power have improved significantly each year, and indeed the iPhone still has to play catch-up in terms on specs. There is definitely room for improvement of the iPhone at the very least (and probably everything else as well).
[Galaxy S III General] harise100:
I agree. The coming phone might do better in benchmarks, but in real life, that difference will be barely noticeable.

Just look at some of the Note vs. HOX on youtube. The difference is much less than the specs would suggest.

Edit: In battery life there is much to improve!
[Galaxy S III General] Sir-Awesome:
iPhoneArena removed my comment.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
1) Last year not being much different from this year does not imply that development has been capped.

2) One cannot expect a notable difference anyway, since everything in the current ecosystem is designed not to take advantage of so many resources. As the resources grow, however, so will demand tend to grow with it. Eventually, for example, with enough cores, enough RAM, and an efficient enough battery, it will become feasible for the OS to simply leave all background tasks running, just like on our computer. That would be a notable change, but clearly it could not happen overnight.
[Galaxy S III General] harise100:
I was just talking about the next iPhone not about the general development of phones. Given how phones are used this year and probably next year, doubling up the hardware specs, will not result in a twice as good user experience.
[Galaxy S III General] KapWorldDevp2:
When you shoot a video from an iPhone 4S its look like you have already zoom a little bit and apart from that its video quality is smooth, colours look so bright and vivid. On the other hand video quality of S3 we will came to know after it get launch.
[Galaxy S III General] amwebby:
Without knowing what that comment was this post is meaningless.
[Galaxy S III General] Deleted member 4571279:
You cant compare those two phones. You already know that s3 is better.

After all quadcore is much faster than dual.
[Galaxy S III General] Sir-Awesome:
I said he was biased and that he didn't show any proof on the pictures.
[Galaxy S III General] amwebby:
Although I too discern an iPhone bias: claiming the iPhone is a better design, the iPhone keyboard is a slick design and ignoring the fact that iCloud is a borrowing of Google's cloud approach which is available on all Android phones, he still gives a fair review that I read as broadly favouring the SIII, he just couldn't bring himself to say it!
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
You probably shouldn't have agreed with the guy who arrived at the same conclusion by believing phone devving was capped, then :p

There's a better reason for supposing the iPhone would not get much better in terms of specs: it never has. It's always lagged behind android in this respect, and given how well it sells anyway, there has been little incentive to drastically improve it.

On the other hand, the increased screen size could be submarine-talk for "we finally want to fit some more powerful stuff in here". (Or it might be talk for "we want to fit weak stuff more cheaply in here".) We'll just have to see.

obviosuly a fanboi who thinks 303ppi on the sgs3 makes its immediately inferior to the 330ppi screen on the ip4s. tbh i've not heard or met a single person who've returned to the mickey mouse iphone screens after using android or wp phones >4inches.

[Galaxy S III General] :
Any droid > iPhone. PERIOD!

I was an ex-iPhone user than gave a shot at the galaxy s2, my my... the things I could do on my droid than on the iPhone was superb!

I'm paying $$ for something I own and control where as the iPhone I pay $$ for its brand and its restrictions.
[Galaxy S III General] Sir-Awesome:
Exactly what I thought. I had the iPhone 3GS. When I first saw the Galaxy S in 2010 I didn't like Samsung because I thought they were copying apple. I gave the Galaxy Fit a go. I like it, but not good enough for me. Now I'm going to upgrade to Galaxy S3.
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
Look for it and you will find it.
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
I just feel that from 330dpi we are capped in Res development because the human eye can not notice differences past that .

Also quad cores don't get fully utilized due to current software.

And battery dev is stagnant because in the last few years the only way we can get longer battery life is by making a larger battery.

I know my comment was vague that's my fault. But I did arrive at this conclusion from my own views and observations.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
Yes, however the sub pixel density is not 330 ppi like on an RGB display.

Here is a comparison of the sub pixel density of the Galaxy Nexus, which is a little greater than the density of the GSIII.

Source: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5000/galaxy-nexus-pentile-discussion-confirmed

It's not going to ruin your day, but it is not capped.
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
I know I've got a galaxy nexus and have had an iPhone 4. There is a difference in screens but the average user will not know the difference this is were it matters not 2% of users like use lol.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
I know, but being a perfectionhist nerd, I just wanted to get the facts absolutely strait. And I do actually notice the difference at 40 cm.
[Galaxy S III General] Arsaw:
Iphone never on my list. So no trouble for me to choose :D

Anyway, comparing 4.8inc against 3.5inc is a waste of time. SGS3 rules :-D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snovvman:
I have an app that autostarts fine on three other phones. On the GN, it does not.

It is registered to start on phone startup, new outgoing calls, app installs, etc. When these events occur, the app does not start (or tries to start and fails).

I couldn't find any related errors using a logcat reader.

Is there a way to troubleshoot this?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] rachitboom2:
Check this iPhone 4S vs SGS3

http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-vs-Apple-iPhone-4S_id3038

Pretty nice ;)
[Galaxy S III General] harise100:
SGS3 smokes the iPhone.:D

But I found it almost painful to watch, how this apple fanboy tries to find a positive aspect for his love.

It was nice to see how he destroyed the myth of easier use, when he showed the music player, or how you get movies on your device (pocket cinema) :p
[Galaxy S III General] madman:
Why not compare it with next iWhatever to be fare ?

We are basically comparing everything with iPhone4s and that itself says all ..

Strictly not apple or android fanboy as both have its own set of advantages and disadvantages

Sent from Galaxy Ace which just landed on "MOON"
[Galaxy S III General] Kiahnlliya:
"There shouldn't be any doubt that the iPhone 4S is the better-designed handset." I agree with that, although I know I should keep my mouth shut until I have actually held the SGS3 in my hands. But I do feel that the iPhone sports a well thought-out design, and it does feel premium, although it's kinda heavy for being a 3.5" device, no?

"Apart from its multimedia superiority, the Galaxy S III is also the better phone if you love tinkering with the software of your mobile device." Exactly. I have enjoyed my time with the iPhone, I really have, but it's getting boring now. I've had it for a year and now I want to tinker. I want to mod. I want to change icons and I want to flash kernels. I want to try out experimental ROMs that cause bootloops. I want that kind of fun back! I love the way you can truly personalize an Android device. I miss that and I want that back.

Winterboard, you say? Oh yay, I can choose from 2,000 ugly themes to apply, and they'll all make my phone slower and less responsive? GTFO...

Really though, what's so wrong with Ray S? I think the last two paragraphs in this review really say it all and I agree with what he writes 100%

The iPhone doesn't suck! It's a really good phone if you want that simplicity! Ray doesn't suck either! He awards points to BOTH phones and I think he did a good job with this.
[Galaxy S III General] ECrispy:
The review was a total joke, since he deliberately didn't mention many advantages of the GS3.

Design - 'iPhone has more premium feel', but of course he didn't say how much more durable plastic is and how fragile iPhone is.

Keyboards - of course he didn't mention that Galaxy phones come with Swype, or that you can install a number of 3rd party keyboards compared to no choice on iOS.

I could go on but it was not a very fair review at all.
[Galaxy S III General] fulcrum1971:
S2 and the Note beat IPhone 4s. S3 is way too better.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
That's the point. He's comparing it to a, frankly, outdated phone and still spinning it to prop them both up equally.

The 4S, after all, was really an incremental update from the year before; I don't think a comparison even deserves to be made (the only reason it even comes up is because the 4S is Apple, oh my).

Unfortunately, it's just not feasible to compare it to the next iPhone, for obvious reasons.
[Galaxy S III General] clouds5:
Android phones have set certain standards in the last year, that a new iphone has to match or they won't have a chance IMHo. Really interested to see what they do about the screen size and how they will handle he resolution dilemma.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
The iPhone is beginning to look and feel really old by now.
[Galaxy S III General] eksasol:
Phone Arena has a bias toward iPhone, as seen in their S3 review, we have gone over this in the previous thread. I think to compare an iPhone to Android by itself is a stupid concept. I mean if you were to give me an iPhone 4S right now, what would I do with it? I can do more thing and have more fun with a used $120 Galaxy S variant, no exaggeration.
[Galaxy S III General] ph00ny:
Issue i have with his every review is more of an opinion piece instead of an objective review. He has tendencies to amplify negatives that can be seen as positive things on non-apple devices.

also the conclusion that everyone who fits the criteria below to get an iphone? If he said things like ecosystem, itunes, etc then yeah i can see it but generalized conclusion that fits both device doesn't.

My response from the other thread
[Galaxy S III General] KapWorldDevp2:
Samsung Galaxy S2 is better than iPhone 4S. But my favourite feature on iPhone 4S is Siri. But I still like the iPhone, after comparing them also.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] KDOG2020:
Even though Im still debating what to do with my 7 plus It may go to my autistic son as a communication device since he is nonverbal. In either case - whether I give it up or not I would like to find a good soft case/cover for it for general protection and possible clumsiness. Of course a Google search brings up so many options my head spins. Any suggestions? I've imagined on that has a flap that covers the screen when not in use but its not a requirement. Thanks for any info.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] 2ndaccord:
There are lots of options for soft cases for the tab plus. I have a silicone, tpu and a hard shell which all offer decent protection from minor drops. My favorite is the tpu one. I will post pictures of each one so you can get a visual representation of each one.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmbillings:
The last few days I've had an issue with excessive battery drain (with little use, i'm down to 10% in just a few hours. Battery graph not showing any obvious candidate)

At the same time, I'm finding apps won't uninstall easily (just sit on the "uninstalling..." screen forever - in addition, the sizes in use never show up (they just sit on calculating... but never update).

This sounds to me like something is corrupted perhaps. Is there some sort of "chkdsk" equivalent for Android? Or should I go down the whole factory reset route? (I'd rather not) - or does anyone else have some ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
might be a rogue app breaking your system; do you install system management apps i.e. tasker ? get betterbattery stats, search for BBS thread here on XDA and read the first posts. If you get further doubts on using BBS, refer to that thread again.

don't think there's chkdsk in linux. also, we're running flash memory. if it's corrupted (like bad blocks) don't think it's recoverable by software (i may be wrong here).

Hey, anyone how to change the default home screen in stock rom ICS without LancherPro (and others)?

The default home screen is always the 4th screen.. ALWAYS!

Anyone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSA:
Add this to your build prop:

ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=3

Change the '3' to whatever screen you want to be the default

(i think this still works for ICS)

btw, this was also the first result in a google search...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maiconpeixinho:
is this work for non-root? where can i change this?

Change your build prop in system as described to 0 .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edbertin:
Usually, the easiest way on ICS is editing build.prop/default.prop or using a launcher app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edbertin:
I saw others posts saying that default.prop has this line (on /system), so you only have to change to the number you want; by default ICS is set to 2 (checked mine here). That means page 3.

I changed mine to = 0 and default home page is now 1. Just rerember to reboot after change it.

Tks for sharing
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSA:
Sounds about right fella, glad you got it sorted
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edbertin:
After discovered the solution, i dont care anymore to change the home screen! Lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edbertin:
For some reason i think i included the parameter in wrong default.prop/build.prop and screw up my device, have boot loops but now i re-flashed and his back alive.

Be careful on changing *.prop files

And have fun :)
