[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] caspertodd:
I agree completely. I was curious if others noticed the washed out look. When I first opened up a couple games, I was disappointed...especially with Words with Friends. It doesn't look good at all on this screen. I came from a Samsung Epic with Voodoo color to fix the blue hue. Contrast wise, the Evo LTE kind of sucks compared to an AMOLED screen. Resolution wise, it is much nicer than my previous phone. I love the phone, and can deal with the somewhat bad contrast I guess. What I don't understand is what phone are these people coming from that are saying "oh my God, this screen just blows me away"?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nabbed:
Unfortunately samoled hd is pentile.

If you haven't played with one, prepare to be very disappointed - it's very pixelated. The "washed out" colors will seem like nothing in comparison.

I'd much rather have the epic touch screen than that garbage. I mean, samoled hd makes epic touch screen look next gen in comparison.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] caspertodd:
I just sat my Evo LTE (SLCD2) down next to my coworkers Nexus S (SAMOLED) and we compared the screens. We set the brightness the same on both devices. The SAMOLED flat out blows away the SLCD2 in contrast and color. There is absolutely no comparison. We both opened up CNN.COM, and zoomed all the way out to compare tiny text to see if we could still read it. On the Evo, the text was slightly more legible (and by slightly, I mean slightly). The SAMOLED screen was clear at all angles. The SLCD2 actually looked a little better at an angle than straight on. I would assume that the Super Amoled HD screen is pretty much the same as the non HD, only larger.

Now just because the SAMOLED screen is nicer, doesn't mean that the phone is better. I would still rather have my Evo LTE than a Galaxy S3. I do love my phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Success100:
I returned mine, I was in love with the build quality and beats audio. however that screen, even though it was great resolution, just didnt cut it for me coming from amoled.

I disagree dude. nothing at 720p on a 4.8 inch display is going to look very pixelated. Sure, if you put a microscope on it youll see it. But the galaxy nexus is pentile, and it looks fantastic. And it sLCD. doesnt make it look next gen in my opinion. The display was the deciding factor for me, a big enough deal to make me return it.

I agree! the evoLTE screen looked BETTER at angles which to me was crazy! but head on, it was very bland. Very.

If they could build the s3 like the evo lte and put beats audio in it, it would be the perfect phone lol. Im afraid Ill be forever torn between the two. When I get the s3 ima be like damn I miss the build quality of the evo. But if i get the evo again, ima throw it at the wall because of the dispplay!!! lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nabbed:
If you are satisfied with the Galaxy Nexus screen, you are good to go.

I personally couldn't stand it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BlueGoldAce:
Throw the evo against the wall over the display....you got be joking...

People here sometimes utterly baffle me...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Antebios:
Daft. I'm not going to return my EVO LTE because the screen rocks. Long live the EVO!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ImaWinRAR:
this.

i went from Epic 4g Touch (from its launch day) to the Evo LTE (on its launch day as well) and the only thing i miss is the deep blacks. I loved the SA+. I didnt think a better screen existed. I ended up giving my E4GT to my bro. After I picked up the evo, i looked back at his phone and it just looked like a toy. The realistic aspect of the LCD2 is astounding - even at only half brightness, and if it had the deep blacks of a SA it would be a game winner across the boards.

The problem with reviews/threads like this is that it builds the hype up so high that when people go and get the phone themselves it, it falls short and they think "meh". the E4GT was a great phone, but the Evo's form factor and reception easily tower over the E4GT's. It really is legit when people call it Sprint's Flagship device

its all opinion dude, thats how i felt, don't get your undies in a bunch over it
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rohit275:
I've been searching this forum without finding an answer to this question. I know that older temporary root methods exist, such as this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1341162

However, I want to be sure something like that will work on a stock ICS vivid. The phone is not mine, it's my friends, therefore I don't want to go the unlock bootloader/perm root route if I can avoid it. I could run titanium and save whatever data she wants to save if a temp root without unlocked bootloader method out there exists for a stock ICS vivid. Does anyone have any more information? Thanks in advance!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
To be very honest, temp root is not really viable for backup either. You'll have to reroot if you want to restore data, etc.

Honestly, what I would suggest is that you just unlock bootloader and permaroot. If you are paranoid about the whole "bootloader-unlocked warranty-in-the-toilet" deal, just know that using an RUU reflashes the bootloader back to *LOCKED* state, not just *RE-LOCKED* state.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rohit275:
I'm someone who usually perm roots everything I can ge my hands on, but it is not my device. I'm not worried about the warranty, but my friend would rather not lose her data if this can be avoided (its more for peace of mind than anything). If I don't have to bootloader unlock, I rather wouldn't.

If I did back up, what would stop me from temp rooting again to restore?

I have been rooting android devices and dealing with custom roms and recoveries since the G1, so I know the benefits of permanent root access, but I know it isn't for everyone and I'm not going to do it for my friend right away if it can be avoided.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Canio Wolf:
So does the temp root method work for ICS?? I've had my phone for a while and I don't wanna lose data on all my apps again >< (happened a lot when I had the Play)

I have a non rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 where I purchased Mass Effect Infiltrator and now I want to copy the apk. to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 so can someone please tell me where to find the apk. file?

Just picked this up, didnt know it wasnt compatible as I was looking on my DroidX (love how its compatible with that and not my transformer, ugh) but its on sale right now for $.99 as is Grand Theft Auto 3 and NBA Jam, Grand Theft is compatible but NBA Jam and this are not, glad that I should be able to move over the APK and install it on my Transformer, hope that works with NBA Jam as well :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan2202:
Not the end of the world, but slightly annoying. No matter what I do, I cant seem to get rid of the number "7" on my Email icon indicating there are 7 unread messages. Even if the inbox is empty.

Im running Calk v1.5 and pulled the Email and Exchange apk's from the AOKP Rom because it has better functionality than the Calk Email version. Exchange is working fine, but the "7" indicating new messages wont go away on the icon. Ive tried to wipe data from Email and Exchange apps and delete the apk's from the system/app folder, and tried to reinstall, reboot the phone, etc. No matter what I do, as soon as I drop the apk's back into the system folder or click the apk to install them again, the email icon comes back with the "7" indicator. Is there something else I can clear or delete to refresh the icon/indicator itself?

Attached a screenshot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Maybe check online to the email client you're on and make sure the program is synced properly. Happened to me with Gmail before and the app showed all messages read, but online via a browser showed unread messages.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan2202:
Thanks for the feedback but its not a sync issue. Outlook client and browser/webmail confirm there arent 7 unread messages anywhere (inbox, trash, folders, etc). Even if I dont configure Email or Exchange after I reinstall the apk's, the "7" is there on the icon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Try wiping app data and also your phones cache/dalvik-cache

I'm having the same issue but with go sms. I get 4 new messages notifications, but there aren't any new messages. I cant get it to go away at all. Im running CM9 v4. Maybe it is related to the phantom vm issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wond3r:
Still on stock GB, any benefits to an ICS rom (either slim or 333) vs latest stock or even a modified stock like Dmore ?

Is the battery better or worse?

How about the stability?

Looking to not have to update frequently and just be stable as the first build I flash.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkwing_X:
I have running Dmore now for about two weeks, rock stabel and fast.

Battery depends on the modem i use but it's also very good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcuchiha:
Nothing is better than stock or stock based roms in terms of functionality.

Ics roms have several minor bugs.

And doesn't have as much functions as gb stock based roms.

I found it kinda annoying. So I'm on xxjw4.

And yes ics roms do have good battery life. Just like most gb roms with different kernels. Try it out and see the difference if you're feeling bored with gb.

I suggest cm9
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wond3r:
Ics roms don't have as many functions as gb roms? Can you explain that, I thought it works be the opposite
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcampori:
well I'm a gb fanboy myself, but that sounds a bit too much...

at least, you get wifi direct, don't know how much useful it is right now, but you get it.

cm9 has much more functions than cm7, but yes, I do prefer stock gb with tw UI much better as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khiyatesh:
ics advantages:

hardware acceleration(buttery smooth scrolling),smooth ui

some new features like rotation anim,new status bar layout,new modifications n all....

3d performance is better...

new user interface...somehow is better then ginger bread...like side scrolling in dialer contacts n all

disadvantages:

bad battery no matter what rom you use as compared to gb

media scanning bug(except for cm9)but for me no matter what i do..cm9 eats battery like hell

media scanning refers to the doublets or triplets in gallery...it happens eventually in almost all the roms...except for cm9...

not fully stable...some minor errors,biggest of which is media scan bug..

tip:

if you wanna stay with gingerbread stability and awesome battery life but you want ics stuffs too...get latest cm7 nightly and flash devil 0.08 kernel...and ics notification layout...n yup latest cm7 nightly contain rotation animation and battery is awesome...and trust me with devil kernel...scrolling is 95 percent as smooth as in ICS..

so in a way you can get ICS stuffs by using cm& gingerbread...

go to this thread if you want ICS on your CM7

I've been on Dmore3.3 since it was released and its very snappy, no bugs, ics themed. I prefer it over the ics roms available, stability is key for me. The developer actually just got swipe to remove notifications working on this rom. And battery life is awesome.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Fuda163:
Hello everybody! please help me wtih next situation. I've bought Galaxy tab 7.7 in Tailand about a week ago. It is working fine, but one thing im worrying about - it is the impossibility to make my device wroking on local sim cards ( I live in Russia -operatos are Megafon and Beeline). I tried to switch my ROM to a stock Russian with changing region, and i tried to unlock my device by editing nv_data.bin but i did not succeed - i could not find 0x181469 and 0x18150e bytes in order to edit nv_data.bin manually via HexEditor. So i tried script method and i ran this in adb shell, having my device in debug mode ofc:

my device rebooted normally - i found new nv_data.bin.UNLOCKED file on sd-card. I replaced old nv_data with a new one (ofc i removed UNLOCKED tag) and rebooted. After both reboots (reboot via adb shell and manual reboot) - still no effect - it keeps telling me that i need to put my sim into a tab.

I am really desperate solving this problem - i cant find solution though i tried surfing internet more carefully. Please help!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] lsherif:
Refer back to your operator & change your sim card with a new one, had the same issue with my Vodafone sim card & a replacement with a new one solved this issue.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Fuda163:
I already did! I tried with 4 different sim cards from 3 operators and i bought a new sim card just for an experiment like 2 days ago - still no result. Maybe i should try mini sim wtih adapter... but what confuses me most is absence of above mentioned bytes in my nv_data.bin...how can i check whether my device unlocked or not?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] regius:
Maybe you have a broken Sim slot. Check the. Forums and you'll find lots of ppl with broken sim slots
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Fuda163:
Turned out my sim slot was rly broken.

But guys from tech support with replacing my slot also chagned IMEI number. They said imei should be chagned in order to use your device in your country... now its functioning normally.

[HTC EVO 3D] stealthee:
So i had to take my phone in because my radio died and could not get cell reception. And of course they had to give me a hboot 1.50. So i used the downgrade trick and got it to 1.40 which of course security flagged the phone. No problem I flashed the 1.13.651.7 OTA/RUU exe and the phone booted up ran revolutionary on it and unlocked the bootloader flashed 1.04 and installed recovery. Everything was going swell. Updated the radio to 1216 and tried out a ICS ROM and phone would shut off some times when i hit the power to turn it on and it would reboot. tried a few ics roms got same results. so tried out some of the 2.08.651.2 roms and it still would reboot randomly. now im ticked. So i flash the 0.97.10.0808 no hboot it flashes more then just the radio but radio 2 and some other things and use the 2.08.651.2 steel rom and no more reboots. I was going on 8 hours with no reboots with 0808. so i figure maybe its fixed now so i put the 1216 radio back on and phones rebooting like clockwork every 20 mins or so. If i did not love this thing it would be bouncing off the walls right now. Of course ive not changed the rom back to a ICS one yet. but any ideas what the heck is going on?

Thanks in advance

Runs silky smooth and the gameplay is completely different from any other fps on the android I have seen so far. Graphics are top notch and the weapons/skill upgrades are the icing on the cake.

Hey all. After a smashed Evo 3D. I decided to get the Otterbox Commuter for the Evo 4G LTE as soon as it is available. The wife has one on the Razr Maxx and it feels great and looks good so going that way.

Here are the questions I have.

- Has anyone found an Armband that fits the Evo 4G LTE? I had one that fit the Evo 3D, but it was tight.

- Anybody work out with an Armband and have Commuter on their current or previous phones? Curious how easy it is to put on and take off for the Armband.
