[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
We need to see comparison between the S4 and the exynos 4412 because the info out there is sketchy, when people compare the s4 to A9 its not accurate because this is an optimised A9 so there is no direct comparison yet, most sites make comparison with the standard 40nm A9.

Nobody can judge anything and it is all speculation.
[Galaxy S III General] Totòòò:
thanks! just please make it before the launch of the usa version so we can know what is going on lol
[Galaxy S III General] jbadboy2007:
I'm have the evolte with the s4 right now until gs3 is launched. It's a very nice soc just this HTC software BLOWS I can tell the hardware is really awesome but the software on this device trashes it. It seems to be way better implemented on the gs3 though. So honestly no worries about this s4 performance.
[Galaxy S III General] neyenlives:
Its a 32nm process HKMG A9. HKMG = High K Metal Gate

Nope yours was bogus and I enjoyed the Wikipedia article more.
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
A couple of days more and I'll be having both the devices with me to do actual tests.
[Galaxy S III General] Totòòò:
however, what I am noticing by the comparison between htc one s that has s4 and the intl version that has quad core, the s4 of the one s uses more memory than the quad core which might mean that the extra 2gb is not that extra afterall since the processor uses more ram?

htc one s running cm9 s4: 684mb memory

samsung intl running cm9 quadcore: 778mb memory
[Galaxy S III General] neyenlives:
im sorry what was bogus? please show me the bogus links

i know you don't like me or my opinions, that's fine, but you really should trust me on this one, you aren't doing yourself any favors by acting like you are in the face of opposition. I am giving you pure facts in the links and then giving my own opinions based on those facts.

If your contribution to the dialogue on the subject is going to consist of:

James: "The A15 architecture is superior to the A9 architecture as shown in the Ti White Paper"

ceo.mtcl: "Yur links are bogus Exynos is bettar!"

Then I would polite-fully ask you find a more....age appropriate topic, or perhaps you could, you know, start your own thread, about how last years A9 technology is better.....please enlighten everyone with your own facts that you have compiled.

mmmkkkay? thanks ;)
[Galaxy S III General] eksasol:
I think the S4 is fast, but I have to choose Exynos and Mali because its more opensource. Its unlocked version and bound to get more developments and more software updates down the road compared to carrier locked devices.
[Galaxy S III General] neyenlives:
the differences in code alone between the two sets of hardware builds of CM9 probably account for a healthy portion of that ~100Mb discrepancy

but lets say the S4 uses 100MB more memory for the video than the Exynos quad....it still has 900Mb additional memory to work with

I'm a little disappointed.

- The graphics isn't so good.

- You don't control the player. You only have control over the aiming.

- No multiplayer. Wasn't this game supposed to have a multiplayer.

Not worth buying.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] XXtremeAzzKicker:
I kind of agree. The graphics are nothing to brag about and only being able to control the aiming kind of sucks. This is one of the games that made me buy the prime. Was supose to multi player and looked like a pretty sweet game.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Agreed the gameplay and graphics arent good. And by the time you're done installing data your 15 min return window would have expired so you'll be stuck with it. I suggest wait for someone to a make video of gameplay before you buy. From the trailer videos it looked like you have total control of the player....you dont. Save your $ IMO for something better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joezilla83:
The graphics are not groundbreaking, but they are not crappy by any means. It looks like the environments and character models need a bump up in resolution. In terms of the gameplay, its fun and frantic at 3.99 it may be too much, but then again there are not that many games like this for android. I like the fast pace of the game, but if i had to pick between this and NOVA 3, i would go for NOVA 3

Hi Guys,

Here is a weird requirement. I am able to connect my bluetooth enabled car to my windows mobile phone and play music from mobile phone. everything is perfect here. But when I play Video files, Audio output is coming from my phone instead of car speakers. Should I change settings ? if its that the way it is..Any alternative idea to play Audio from car speakers and video on mobile?

What specific device? Custom ROM or stock? Unlocked level?

You can enable this with a registry edit, and it is mentioned many times in XDA so i'm not sure what exactly you searched for but you can enable it with a tool like, Advanced Config, but only if you're capable of making registry edits to your device.

If it's not unlocked, you can't enable this, sorry. Try searching the forum again for a more detail specific post, try some words like "bluetooth" and "A2DP" -- I'm pretty sure it's mentioned in the WP7 Registry tweaks thread.. In Dev & Hacking... Good luck.

[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Player Pro (Paid) or Player Pro (Trial) is also an amazing media player to download, but it is a paid app. You should get the DSP pack if you install player Pro. With this, you can make your own presets & apply advanced effects too. Also, the Player Pro integrates very well with android thus, it is possible to completely replace the default music app.

I'm probably gonna have to send in my tablet for repair and I've rooted and installed flexreaper's R14 from for ics.I bought the tablet about a month ago it had honeycomb idk if there's a way I can get back to that if not can I get back to stock ics and how can I unroot my tab?
[Acer Iconia A500] MadMav88:
The better way is restore the official rom, you can do it with the downgrade to 3.0.1 unstable.. Which bootloader? HC or ICS?

If you have HC, make the downgrade and then the OTA update or flash a totally stock non-rooted rom (Androonay - vache's site), everything will be stock..

I've done the same 2 days ago e no issues :)
[Acer Iconia A500] rcraig617:
I think I have the ice boot loader I'm not sure though how can I tell?
[Acer Iconia A500] MadMav88:
Launch Acer Recovery Installer v2.74, it should show which bootloader you have.

If is 3.01 -> HC
[Acer Iconia A500] rcraig617:
Boot loader Version=0.03.12-unl is what it says
[Acer Iconia A500] MadMav88:
It's an ICS bootloader unlocked
[Acer Iconia A500] rcraig617:
So can I go back to stock ics and if so how? Also will they know I rooted if I send in my tab if so I wanna unroot also if any can help me.

[Acer Iconia A500] blackthund3r:
Use one of the TimmyDean APX Packages with your UID and you can flash the unstable 3.0.1 build. Then install Acer Update Enhancement (either from the market or from the Acer website via the APK download) and update to OTA ICS
[Acer Iconia A500] rcraig617:

[Acer Iconia A500] mastashake:
Similar situation... almost

I am in a very similar situation as the OP except my hardware problem is that both the USB and microUSB have quit on me. Without being able to use APX mode, I'm pretty hosed... right? Anyone want to place an over/under on Acer ignoring the unlocked bootloader and fixing the defective USB module?
[Acer Iconia A500] york629:
You could also use afterOTA found here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1675939

and it walks you through going completely stock, although why are you sending it in? I have sent a couple things back for screen replacements and they didn't care it was running custom ROMS. But that tool should do the trick for you.
[Acer Iconia A500] rcraig617:
I just got the tab a month ago and my speakers randomly stopped working on me I wanna send it in while I still have warranty
[Acer Iconia A500] blackthund3r:
You can fix that. MicroSD ;)

Stick on a MicroSD a stock Acer ICS Leak ROM and flash it in CWM ;)

Then once flashed, it'll automatically flash the stock bootloader and when it boots it'll flash the stock recovery back! Then reboot it and do the Volume Up / rotation lock toggle to wipe all your data off then it's completely stock!

[HTC EVO 3D] Alexsandra:
I just read a thread that complains about the poor audio quality. I want to say the audio quality of EVO 3D is only acceptable. I compared EVO with my ipod touch. It is obvious that the music on ipod touch is more clear than EVO. So is that a way that I can improve the audio quality of my EVO 3D? I dont want to put two devices into my pocket.

Here is what I think

1) install another music player like winmap AWP Meridian.....

I have tried them all and none of them can provide better quality than stock music player. Winmap sucks. When I use winmap I hear a lot of noises that I have ever heard before. Does anyone has the same experience?

2) install custom rom&custom kernel

I find out Chad's kernels can provide great sound quality, but it will trade your bluetooth camera.....etc. Did anyone try this?

3) another way that I still not find out

I am looking forward your reply or solution.

Thanks guys

[HTC EVO 3D] Pommes_Schranke:
The beats headphones have poor audio quality. Especially if you look at the price tag they are acceptable at best.

The beats smartphone "software" is nothing but an equalizer. I'm not saying it does not help but it's neither rocket science nor magic.

The best thing to do might be buying a small mp3 Player e..g. Sansa clip+

What Kind of headphones do you use?

[HTC EVO 3D] Alexsandra:
what this？
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
Well, assuming you are on a gingerbread rom, flashing chads latest kernel will greatly improve sound quality and volume. I think beats is a gimmick but everything chad has done really makes a huge difference.

In regards to other players, I've always thought ipods had horrible sound quality. Always seemed very flat. My old cowon iaudio mp3 player had the best sound quality I've ever heard. I've yet to come across something that produced the same level of quality.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scougar:
After a little research, it turns out the Evo 3D actually has one of the best sound chips around. It may not be being utilised properly, but I think one of Chad's kernel's did make use of it. The O2X does exactly the same thing... has a cracking sound chip, and then completely fails to make use of it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Alexsandra:
thanks for advice. I would like to confirm one thing is if chad rom dont support ICS Rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] Alexsandra:
btw why do you think ipod offers poor audio quality？ Compared with other mp3 player, ipod does offer less audio augmentation option like BBE or fullsound. But it doesnt mean original audio effect is poor. Sometimes these audio effect may reduce the music quality just like beats audio of htcphone. Some guys have already posted threads to complain about it. I like ipod not only for its looks but also it can offer us with clearly original audio quality. PS. I am not an apple fan.......:D

[HTC EVO 3D] Someguy316:
Yeah, the chip on the EVO 3D is pretty good even if it's not the best. I recently upgraded my PC and the motherboard on board audio sounds weird to me over my last sound card. At this point I'd rather stream music to my phone to listen there via headphones. The sound does have a hissing to it but I thought that it was just interference from the other components.
[HTC EVO 3D] Alexsandra:
which kernel do you use now? and Rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] Someguy316:
Forgot to clarify, I'm just using tbe stock ROM and firmware for Sprint; nothing special. Play back music through HTC's media player with any enhancements off. That's why I said it's pretty good.

I understand all these battery drain issues that the prime has been having but haven't actually had them, until now. I used to lose about 2-3% overnight but suddenly I am losing around 15% because it won't sleep. I go into the battery setting and it shows it been awake the whole time. Now I am sure if I looked around I may find a fix but it just seems a bit odd that it has just suddenly occurred. And its not a wifi drainage issue as I usually put it to sleep at power saving mode and wifi off. Just asking why?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] madsquabbles:
every android tablet and phone i have does this occasionally, and those occasions are when i either play video or music. some of these media players employ a wakelock that will not disable after you put your device to sleep. sometimes a reboot will work, sometimes not. most of the times the reboot keeps it from draining. even force quitting all my media apps wouldn't work.

so basically i reboot every time i use any type media player so i don't get the drain - netflix doesn't require it, dice and just about every music player does. i'm not sure it this may be your problem, but it may be a possible solution.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
I find that making sure to check the last two settings under Asus Customized Settings helps this. I was waking up in the morning to find my dock dead everyday before I checked those two settings. The only down side is when I turn the screen on and wake it up, it takes about 5-10 seconds to connect to the wifi. No biggie.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] graffixnyc:
Use better battery stats and see what is causing it. I have read that skype does drain battery pretty bad. And even if you're not connected it still runs in the background at start up. Another app I would recommend is Autostarts. It allows you to disable apps at start up. I know system tuner is free and has the same functionality but I find Autostarts better. With ST, you just disable the app at start up, with Autostarts you can disable it at start up, shutdown(which some apps fire when the tab is being shut down and other system events), also other events. Like some apps fire up when you get a text, or when your connection changes etc.. I just think Autostarts has more options.

Also dev Entropy has a thread in the GS2 forums about know battery drainers. Some of it applies specifically to the GS2 but there are a bunch of general battery killers listed

If its android system, you can click on it and it will show you a list of whats been using your battery which may point you to the culprit. In my case, media was the only thing in the list. And I know if an SDcard is inside my dock it will drain battery. So after removing it the drainage went away. Havent had the drain issue since. Again yours might be different so check the battery usage.
