[General Questions and Answers] megaghostgamer:
Hmm... this is a hard decision... I still think the HTC would the better go. It's very strange for HTC to make a nonremoveable battery like that. Just wondering are you into gaming on the your phone? It really doesn't matter a lot on the processor because on my evo shift it has like 850mhz and it plays GTA III with a little lag but the newer phones are double the processor. I think my major issue on my old phone was ram. My HTC Hero only had like 190 and it couldn't run angry birds. It can but really slow. I overclocked it to 758mhz and still laggy... But back to the topic... I noticed the Sony has a ring at the bottom that lights up. I could imagine that it takes up a good bit of battery and the if the HTC has better resolution, that's a really good thing! I did have a optimus S at one point too and the quality was bad...

I am not much of a gamer. On my current phone Optimus One P500 I only play Cut the rop nd other similar games. Xperia U is still getting my attention just bcoz of the Dual Core Processor .
[General Questions and Answers] megaghostgamer:
Yeah... Do you know the Mhz on both phones?If so let me know:)
[General Questions and Answers] Xytise:
Both the phones have 1 Ghz processors only difference is HTC One V has Single Core and Xperia U has Dual core

hm... What do you think at this point? I really do like sense 4.0. Also the Sony is boxy and it doesn't look as appealing as the HTC.

Does any1 know about Sony's Timescape UI ?
[General Questions and Answers] sxcodeboy:
This question sort of hits home.

I have been looking at the HTC ONE v myself. I am actually working on buying it and building custom roms specifically for this HTC device. The features are very extensive and I do believe that its actually a dual core 1 GHz processor even though their website only list the processor speed and not the processor type. I have had the opportunity to play with one and it is lightning fast when running several task at the same time, ie downloading, installing, and playing angry birds. I am in the process of starting a company and this is the phone that I am going to issue to all employees.

Xperia U

Well as far as screen goes both are equally good.

Xperia U has STE U8500 CPU with Mali400 GPU same as S2, check here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mali_(GPU)

One V's CPU and Adreno 205 doesn't stand a chance here.

One V has just 1GB internal(rest is unaccesible) while Xperia U doesn't have SD card but has 2GB for apps and 4GB for music+photos etc (if you need lots of space, choice is clear)

Rest if you want to read on UI, read about Xperia S UI it will be same http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_s-review-741p3.php (It is not bad in comparison to Sense)

For me Xperia U it will be!

I got my 4 month used Samsung galaxy note GT - N7000 only in 20000INR.

Better to buy a high end used device instead of new mid range device.

Best value for money and high resell value too.

Look for Decently used samsung galaxy S2 or Note..... You can find many great deals. Both are high on specs. As you are interested on applying custom roms here in xda community you can find many custom roms.

Its only my point of view.

HTC one and Sony Xperia U..... Both are good.

Go for any of them you will not regret.

Cheers :)

I read some reviews and found HTC One V has Single Core Processor ...
[General Questions and Answers] Xytise:
Also do you guys think the Non removable battery in HTC One V would cause any problem? I think in case the phone hangs there will be no way to shut down the phone... correct me if I am wrong
[General Questions and Answers] hell1134:
Hi,

Sorry for butting in ...

but, I too currently own a LG P500 and am planning on upgrading to one of these smartphones.

Yes, HTC has single core vs dual core of Xperia U.

In gsmarena user forums, many complaint that HTC one V has some screen problems like yellow spots ( or lines ? ), it "sometimes" lags and gets really hot after some time of usage.

In case of Xperia U, its plastic body ( vs metallic unibody of HTC one V ) turns me off and especially its low memory with no provision of expanding it via microSD card. Also, choose the wrong colour cap and you'll be a laughing stock in your friend circle.
[General Questions and Answers] Xytise:
True story :-P... why don't they make phone taking all the goods from both the phones and putting into 1 :(... its really difficult choosing between these two
[General Questions and Answers] hell1134:
Then they'll have a hard time selling their "top of the range" phones ...
[General Questions and Answers] Derzis:
it`s hard to decide between HTC One V & Sony Xperia U, you should see them in a store before deciding

also consider 3 new phones that use the same dual-core NovaThor U8500

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

Sony Xperia Sola

Samsung Galaxy S Advance

P.S. Samsung has advantage because it uses 768 MB RAM
[General Questions and Answers] anjath:
Can you extend your budget by 1000- 1500 INR? you can get xperia Sola which is overall a better phone for you. otherwise wait till June second week for the prices to settle down a bit. All the best.
[General Questions and Answers] mac_allen:
If let me chose I will select the Sony one
[General Questions and Answers] Xytise:

Sony Xperia U - Camera Problem

Hello friends, after lot of confusion I bought Sony Xperia U yesterday.

Phone is great. I am facing a problem with dedicated camera button. Phone is packed with nice camera, and On screen click works like a charm.

Just the dedicated camera button doesn't respond at all. Someone else is facing the same problem? or is it just me?

P.S When I checked for updates, my phone says all the firmware are up to date. So, there is no chaos.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Sony updates are only available on PC via Sony PC Companion. Hope that's how you did it. Don't worry about the button, it'll soften.

Xperia U Memory is EXPANDABLE!!!

xperia u has on the go support!! buy a cable for 120 INR

connect it to your phone and a pendrive!!! u can even connect external powered HDD!!!

i myself bought a sola:cool:.

the camera button's is as ****ty as in u

the half press feels smooth press it u'll be like "OH SO SMOOTH!!!":eek:

to take the actual photo u'll have to dig in deep "DAMMIT WORK!!!":mad:

it invariably causes shake in my opinion use touch focus or single focus and use onscreen button

Problems from a non-removable battery

thanks for raising this question, pal. Even I wanted to know the same. Non-removable batteries would really make restarts after a hang difficult. I'm going to buy a xperia sola and this problem is really annoying me. So anyone has a solution?

Thanks

What about Xperia's U battery charge time and usage time, also does it include front camera? w.r.t. HTC 1v

just to remind sola does not come with a front cam.
[General Questions and Answers] HyperClocker:
HI my xperia u goes on for 2 days if i dont surf the net much, normal calls, medium gaming, some vids.. and 1 day for heavy net,gaming and so on.. Xperia U got front Camera.

**Note**Initally for few recharges, battery life is a bit low, then it increases significantly!!**

I did my own research and except its limited internal space... the phone is perfect... and its getting an ics 4.0.4 update come august end.

You can connect PDs and HDDs to this phone which is a real helper if you got no pc to read the data on your portable storage device.:o

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] daveydoo:
Have updated phone to Ice Cream Sandwich, all is well so far, yet I am unable to reinstall my PURCHASED version of Whale Trail. It states that my device is not "compatible". I have contacted the devs and they have said basically nothing of use.

Has anyone experienced the same with this app or any other app using ICS?

It is also unavailable when I search for it in the market, it only appears in my history of apps for my account.

I don't want to have to go through changing the lcd bla bla bla as I am unwilling to root my phone and fiddle with things I rather wouldn't.

Please discuss and share some light!

Thanx

Hi

I have a laptop which working with 220V, can i charge directly the Samsung player(USA, 110V no ?) with the laptop with a usb cable ?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Samwes:
yes

Quite simply, yes. Anything with a micro usb end connected to a power output will charge it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] daniel644:
Yes, regardless of the voltage at the outlet the computer is plugged into ALL USB ports run at 5 Volt (that is a USB STANDARD) so you can plug into the USB port and charge, the only reason it might not charge in a USB port is if the computer is REALLY old (pre USB 2.0) as the amperage of USB 1.1 is to low to be able to charge the player.

On a side note my 4.0 seems to last longer between charges when charged with the standard charger vs. charging thru the USB of the computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Trolol:
and if charge with the travel adapter, all i'll need is the cord that transports from american to moroccan ? or a transformer current too ?

(We have 220V)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] daniel644:
yes, just looked at my charger and it will accept between 100 and 240 volts, so you just need the wall plug adapter.

The nearest place now that carries them would be Best Buy, they're 70 miles south of me in Santa Rosa. I was born and raised in SoCal though, so it takes some getting used to not having everything just a few minutes away lol
[Transformer TF300T General] paedz718:
picked one up at Micro Center in Westbury, NY on Wednesday. The site says "Item Not Available" but their Twitter account confirmed 3 left in store. They actually had 4 left in store when I got there. $349.99 for the 32 GB model, about $380.00 after tax. Sweet deal

The only place to buy one locally here (Mendocino County, Northwestern California) is at Staples in Ukiah, about 10 miles south of me, they have them in stock for $399.99 (plus Tax).

We don't have Best Buy up here, the nearest one is in Santa Rosa, 70 miles south of me. I got mine from Amazon for $390 and no tax (Plus $3.99 for Prime 1 Day shipping) last week. Walmart here doesn't carry anything Asus but laptops, they do carry tablets from Acer, Nook, Kindle and Apple though.

Edit-Walmart does sell them online though-

do you think i should wait till the transformer infinity be released before buying this tf300 tab ? In terms of price i mean ;-)

Can we expect a 100$ discount so it would start at 299$ with no keyboard ?
[Transformer TF300T General] TXKSSnapper:
I wouldn't expect a $100 drop. Technically this is the economy or budget model and the tf700 is the performance model. I would personally be surprised to see any drop, but if there was a drop I would assume no more than $50.
[Transformer TF300T General] Heylliott:
Thanks for your response, and we still wait a release date for the tf700 ? I read somewhere june 11 !?
[Transformer TF300T General] mike-y:
I read something a little while ago that says July. The TF700 will be a premium tablet though. Metal body and 1080p screen. It replaces the TF Prime, so I think it will be at least $100 more than the TF300. I wouldn't expect much (if any) price drop on the TF300 when the TF700 is released.

however, there should be a decent price drop on the Transformer Prime when the TF700 comes out. But we all know about the prime's issues.

[Transformer TF300T General] tuffluck:
i missed out on them at microcenter in dallas, they sold out. but if you think about it, it's $379 after taxes there. amazon has it for $385 occasionally (including right now), and an ebay seller always has it for $397. i'd say if you are getting it for less than $400 you are doing well, and there are plenty of avenues to get it at that price. what's another $18 saved on a $400 item anyway? that's like 2 days worth of gas for me.
