[LG Optimus 3D] d-shade:
So I was trying to figure out a good way to move the download data, I know you can patch the apk with gameloft games but everytime there is an update having to backup and patch seemed like a lot of work. GL to SD works but I was only able to get it to work with older GL games and for some reason I couldn't get it to work with Modern Combat 3.

So I found an APK called DirectoryBind in the Galaxy S2 board

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1410262

I tried it out and it works really well so far. You just set it up and forget you can open all your apps like normal. I have this setup with all my Gameloft games, GTA3, Dead Space and NBA Jam. I have 4gb available on my Internal SD and 1GB on my External as I am only using a 8gb at the moment. The only part that was weird for me was it wouldn't save my directories at first every time I rebooted my list would disappear. So backup the database when you add a new entry just to be safe.

Simple steps to bind the directory.

1: download the data to your internalSD

2: use a file manager to create the directory you would like to move the data to in your externalSD

3: Open directory bind hit menu > preferences set the default data path to /sdcard/_ExternalSD/

4: Add a new, tap hold the locations and you will be able to select the directories(a lot better then typing)

5: check the Transfer files

6: Add the bind

7: wait until the files are copied to new directory then deleted out of the old directory

8: click the disk icon to enable and enjoy.

Now if you read the OP of the APK it says that if the directories doesn't unbind when the sdcard is mounted it may crash and you would need to restart your phone to get it working again. I am not sure if this is true as I use Multi Mount so my sd card can be mounted to both the phone and computer so my ringtones and such don't default.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antzlisoul:
I have a question regarding to the ICS dialer. Usually the GB stock dialer has 4 tabs that include contacts in one of them. However, in stock ICS, it only shows 3 tabs on the top: keypad, logs, favorites.

Is there anyways to bring back contacts in there? or do i have to exit and go to contacts every time.

I upgraded through Kies to ICS 4.0.3.

Thanks in advance.

I've been searching everywhere for a comparison thread or video or anything between the T-Mobile One S and Galaxy S3 . I right now have the One S and I am torn between this and the S3, so simple question, what phone do you think is better and why? T-mobile One S or T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 ( we pretty much know the specs)
[HTC One S] Someone09:
As always, this is a question of tastes, likes and dislikes.

Looking only at the specs, the S3 is better.

But looking at practicability I think the One S is better.
[HTC One S] HighRoIIer:
If you don't care for the money go for the S3.

The benefits of the one s over the s3 are better price, better haptic due to the smaller screen and better touch due to the aluminium body.

On the other side the s3 comes with bigger battery, sd card support, better screen (hd), better cpu and probably the bigger fanbase in the future... Therefore more developers.

I don't use touchwiz or sense so this wouldnt matter for me.

Gesendet von meinem HTC One S mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] s10shane:
this is what ive been wondering. i have till the 18th to return my htc one s if i dont like it (since i get 30 days to return it here in california). ive had reboots, signal going in and out which has been driving me nuts and wifi calling dropping calls for no reason when i have full wifi signal. also i think the gs3 looks like crap to me and cheap and the htc one s looks way better, but the GS3 does have better features (IMO) then the htc one s.

Galaxy S3:

Bigger screen

HD screen

Expandable micro sd card

Bigger battery and also can be replaced

More ram 1gb vs 2gb which might not even matter

I think the cpu and gpu is the same as the htc one s

NFC

HTC One S:

Much better design and sexier

Camera software is better (i think it is)

Htc sense 4.0 (which i think is much better then touchwiz)

I figure for the money im better off with the gs3 since i paid 250 plus taxes for my one s. but i will see.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Firstly the GS 3 does NOT have a better processor, just because it is "quad" does not mean that it is better :p

The S/XL/X AT&T/Evo 4G LTE uses the latest snapdragon chip, the S4 dual core krait. Have a look at the benchmarks comparing the GS 3 and the HTC One S and the HTC One X (Snapdragon S4)

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9300_galaxy_s_iii-review-761p5.php

Unless you are looking at the version that the USA is getting in which case the GS 3 will then have the s4 as well.

Also just because the GS 3 has a bigger battery does not mean that it is also going to be better :p

Many factors affect battery life:

- screen size/type/res.

- driver/software optimization for battery

- the hardware that is used especially the CPU

etc.

So due to the bigger screen/higher res, the bigger battery is needed.

From what I have seen (from people who know what to post for screenshots regarding battery life and the required info. :rolleyes:) and heard from a friend (who owns the GS 3), the battery life does not sound that good, seems very average and only slightly better than the X.

Also just look at the atrix, it had a big battery, yet its battery life was terrible.

However, due to the s4 being very power efficient, the battery life could be a fair bit better than the exynos quad gs3,

version.

At least you will be able to get an extended battery though

The GS 3 only has 1GB of RAM as well (USA version has 2GB). There really is no need for any more RAM.

The GPU in the GS 3 is better (the GPU in the GS3 USA version is the same as the HTC one s [adreno 225])

So to sum up, if you want a bigger/better screen, more storage for dropbox, internal and the choice of using an SD card, NFC, better 1080P video recording (camera/photos seems good, but not a huge difference from what I can see and the HTC one/Sense V4 has a lot more features and some of them are great along with a better UI IMO) and a larger developing community go for the GS 3.

Although play with the GS 3 first and see what you think of touchwiz as I personally don't like it one bit, hate the colour scheme, modded apps and feels like a big step down from sense V4 overall IMO. Although touchwiz is tweaked very well under the bonnet.

Also you may find the GS 3 to be too big.
[HTC One S] KillaHurtz:
I think the OP is talking about the T-Mobile Galaxy S3 which will have dual core not a quad. Sure it all comes down to preference, would you like to have "TAMPERED" written to your bootloader and documented by the same company that is supposed to honor your warranty ? How bout a VGA front camera ? Maybe the atrocious cut out for the ****ty front camera? How bout poorly designed antennae that struggle to get a signal inside a building ? What about a non expandable 16gb memory device of which only about 10 is free ?

Touchwiz and Sense both hog resources, but TW is much, much lighter. The One S restarts Sense every chance it gets, and has a serious multitasking problem.
[HTC One S] h.han:
When OP asks this question here, I assume you ask the same on s3 forum cos you will for sure have most of people recommend one s here and s3 there.

There is no definitely good or bad, or better or worse between these two. Even one s is not HTC's flagship, give it to other brands, it could enough take the crown.

We could only rationally compare the specs and provide personal preference which is so depending on individules. I wouldn't deny that s3 does have better specs in some areas but one s wins in others. And one s has a few issues such as the mao coating chipping off. But it does not stop us loving the phone, rather, it only makes us love it even more cos only when you care your device, you want it better, right? Just like me, I never know what problem s3 has and will have, simply because I don't really care, I am satisfied with my beloved one s and I am pretty sure I will keep loving it since it is almost almost perfect.

So, the best way to find out which one to get, is to see the specs first, then find out any issues with both, especially if there is any deal breaking one, if you still cannot decide, go play with both in your local shops and feel them yourselves. However, I do recommend avoiding black one s cos it has hardware issue, but grey one is fine.

In the end I would say, I lovey my one s! Hope lots of people do the same (of course, try love your one s, not mine :) )
[HTC One S] icecicle:
if you're mad about the reboots and random issues it has when it first came out don't think the s3 is going to be perfect and bug free either cause you're going to be dissapointed if you gave up ur one S for a rebooting brick
[HTC One S] justin11141:
The only problem I have is the multi tasking on it, and also this weird screen flickering
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Im in the EXACT same boat as you. I got my One S for 290 on Tmo with upgrade and am looking to sell back my One S for the GSiii. The only thing is I have til the end of this week to decide! Haha. If I sell back to T-Mo, will I be able to upgrade again?
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Regarding reboots, since release day pretty much, I have only had 2 reboots and they both happened when I was using swiftkey beta 3, so it may have been related to that app due to it being in "beta" stages.....

Haven't had any more reboots since the latest beta version and update for the 1S *touch wood*
[HTC One S] s10shane:
yeah u can still upgrade if u return it within the 30 days or whatever days u have. i probably will trade mine back in right before it ends. it just depends on how much the gs3 cost me. i cant stand no micro sd card expansion. i know we get drop box but what good is drop box when ur out and u get crappy 2g? its pretty much useless and so is google music. this is why i would much rather have expandable memory so i dont have to rely on my internet connection. it just sucks to give up such a sexy ass device plus i normally hate samsung and love htc but i feel like im getting more for my money if the gs3 cost me the same as the htc one s cost me. if it cost more then i will stick with the one s.
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
That is the exact same reason I am considering switching over for. Thanks for the reply, nice to know I get my upgrade privilege back. If you find out how much the GSiii will cost on upgrade, please let me know. I will do the same for you :D

EDIT: I read Samsung states that the newest device should be 199 with contract (upgrade I assume as well if TMo is good). So same price if not cheaper if TMo does or doesn't have the 50 mail in rebate like with the One S (at least for me in Chicago). I found that on THIS article.
[HTC One S] s10shane:
Sweet if its 199 with no rebates then I will get it asap. I paid 250 plus tax and over night shipping which cost me 340 which is kinda to much money for this phone. I sent the rebate in but it can take up to 8 weeks to get my 50
[HTC One S] Habarug:
As I see it the main reason to choose the one s over sgs3 is the size. And that was a good enough reason for me :)
[HTC One S] s10shane:
Yeah the size is nice and its 720p which is also nice. I like the expandable micro sd and the removable battery is nice as well and NFC support.
[HTC One S] ickster:
I agree with this post almost completely.....except that I am definately having the data issue. I am hoping against hope that the ghost firmware update will correct this.

I returned mine yesterday and am having the same problem with this second one.

Edit-I think I'm in a fringe/low lieing area. I never get a real good signal, but the indicator fluctuates wildly. Mostly at 1-2 bars or less.

I myself would choose the One S over the SIII. Which I did.

I was a little concerned about the battery but it has turned out to be a non issue. Battery life is superb!
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Changed my mind. I am sticking with the One S. Build quality is wayyyy better plus I would have to shoot myself in the groin if I had to deal with TouchWiz, even for one day. It's nice that you can have much more memory, but that's about it.
[HTC One S] s10shane:
yeah it does suck but at least there is apex launcher which makes any phone nicer lol. plus im sure there will be a cm9 rom for it somewhere along the way. lol im still thinking about it. i probably wont make up my mind till i see the pricing official from tmobile
[HTC One S] QaeadarDAzeal:
For me, I think the performance of both phones will be comparable. I think the question you need to ask yourself is "What matters more to me; the phone's screen, or the Android skin the phone is running?" If you want a phone with the best display, get the Sammy. If you want proper build quality with a non-****ty Android skin, get the One S. I currently use the One S, and I'm very satisfied with it. With Dropbox, I don't worry about the sdcard, the battery life is excellent, and I don't have to deal with Touchwiz.

That being said, I'm not 100% satisfied with the display. Certain app's icons seem to have a pixelated edge as a result of the pentile display, but all the pros I get with it outweighs that, and I don't even notice it when I'm watching videos, playing games, or using Facebook.

Hope that helps.
