I remember a discussion about this on the Galaxy nexus forum. It's just a limitation of the amoled he technology that they can't make the blacks as deep anymore. Personally I think the higher resolution is worth the sacrifice.
[Galaxy S III General] jsmasterx:
Let me tell you that you will also notice dark spots on the screen like the sgs2. very annoying.
[Galaxy S III General] zyryn:
look, the spot/ blotches issue is alright if its not too noticable....so thts fine....

but the blacks not being deep enuf, thts too bad considering s1 n s2 had nice deep blacks...

so basically the Supr amold " HD " screen exclusively has this inability to dispay true blacks ???

P.S: yeah the resolution is great, so much better thn the s2 !! love it !
[Galaxy S III General] Tinderbox (UK):
I use this video to test the black on my note, play it in a totally black room, if you have true black you should not be able to see where the edge of the display and the bezel join.

My note`s black`s are pure black not gray.

So could you please help me solve this issue. I thought if i install Stock rom i can get back my phone. According to my friend he said me to install OEM Rom.

To be honest i dont know the difference between Stock and custom rom.

[Galaxy S III General] ECrispy:
Looking for honest opinions. I know the GS3 is the best phone today, and there will always be a new thing coming out soon. But I feel like now is a time when in a few months, there might be a series of Nexus phones coming out, and these 2 will be the best Android devices for a while.

I've lived with my Evo for 2 years and a few more months is fine if there's a good chance the Nexus will be a big leap. On the other hand its so tempting to just get the GS3 :)
[Galaxy S III General] thegregulator:
I was in the same boat as you. I ended up buying the One X. Then I bought the Galaxy S3. Haha..

It will definitely be interesting to see what the new nexus devices come out with. I always say I'll wait for this or wait for that, but inevitably I cave. You can't go wrong with the Galaxy S3. The international model will always have a strong developer following. I worry that the legendary developer following will become very fragmented when 5 different nexus devices are released. That has always been a claim to fame for the nexus line.
[Galaxy S III General] yyhd:
S3 for me hands down.

GNex was a pretty big disappointment for me. The only thing it had going for it was Vanilla Android 4.0 ICS. Everything else about the phone I really hated. If Samsung follows the same trend with the next Nexus, then the next Nexus will be another disappointment in my books.

However, rumors whisper the next Nexus may be a Motorola phone. We'll see.
[Galaxy S III General] triStateMindgate:
If the next Nexus is a Motorola, then that will be a disappointment. Even though Google owns Motorola Mobility, If i see another "Droid" by Motorola I'm gonna projectile vomit...

Even though the GNex did not turn heads with its CPU/GPU/Cam, I think it was still a breakthrough device, it's still, to this day imho the best looking device out, front is literally flawless. LED notifier anyone? Even though I'm probably/most likely going to buy the SGS3, it's gonna be tough going back to a device that actually has buttons, that **** is old.....

The next Nexus is not going to be launched until the end of the year, given how quickly devices/tech rolls over, 5 months for a device is already pushing it. The S3 is a beastly of a phone, but trust me, by October/November, there will be rumblings of the S4, the Nexus will be out, or multiple Nexuses, and while most are going to still be waiting for ICS, Nexus users will be rockin' Jelly Bean..
[Galaxy S III General] edgex:
I quite want one, but doubt I'll find anyone to take my skyrocket + cash for this beast of a phone.

No upgrades on my account until september/October I forget. So I guess I'll have to see if anything is good then if nobody will trade me now.
[Galaxy S III General] Hotobu:
I think it's pretty dumb to wait for vaporware. If this was a device that had specs that'd make sense, but it seems pretty silly to wait on something and not even know WTF you're waiting for.

edit: Oh, sorry it isn't even vaporware. That's something that's announced and doesn't come to fruition. This hasn't even been announced or hinted at as of yet... silly.
[Galaxy S III General] mlin:
I read a little while back that Google will work with multiple manufacturers for the next line of Nexus phones, including HTC, Samsung, Motorolla, and LG.

[Galaxy S III General] The Janitor Mop:
As you noted, there's always something new coming out. This means that the decision of when to jump in is entirely personal. I really think you should lay out your own minimum requirements and go from there. For me, the GS3 is a no go because one of my requirements is a next gen GPU, not a refreshed 2011 GPU. That's just one example of how I decide if I'm willing to upgrade yet. Until my desired specs are met I'm holding out with my sensation.
[Galaxy S III General] copualt3:
The nexus has repeatedly represent the minimum standard for android and I emphasize the minimum standard. Starting with the nexus one, first 1ghz android. Nexus s with old galaxy s 1ghz and now current galaxy nexus with a dual core 1ghz. Samsung galaxy s series has been known for exceeding that standard and creating

Premium specs. Galaxy s had the best cup/gpu, s2 best cup/gpu and now s3 which has demonstrated it has the top dog cpu /gpu. Samsung has show again and again it s committed to the best.

[Galaxy S III General] hboos:
if you wait long enough, you could buy google glass.

joking aside, i think the GS3 is a significant upgrade from the phones from the S2 era... and i believe that the new nexus phone will not present that much of an upgrade save for Jelly Bean.
[Galaxy S III General] shinshoryuken:
This is so true, and many people share the same sentiment on the galaxy nexus.

vanilla android is great but the hardware is so lacking and gimp.

The promise of having the latest upgrade is not true anymore, it barely got 4.0.4.

I felt sorry for the people that kept their phone stocked and was stuck on the buggy 4.0.1...

but yeah it did look sexy..
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
I for one would like to hear more details on what the five Nexus devices really are. Are they going to be competing phones, phones with predetermined near-identical specs for dev compatibility, or not phones at all? The former is the ideal case, in terms of hardware at least.1 Combined with the customizable soft nav-bar (I can't help but find non-customizable, non-rotatable nav buttons lame as hell now) the choice would be a no-brainer for me.

But that's an ideal scenario. (Nope, ideal scenario is the Nexus Note :D)

1 The second would probably be ideal for homebrew deving, but without competition there's no guarantee of real hardware improvements.
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
There are already ample amount of posts regarding this, so it's not fair to ask the same thing again and again, instead searching would have given you all the answers you need :)

The gnexus is 1.2 ghz omap. 4460 not 1. Do the ghz really matter anymore? All. These damn processors are fast. I want quadcore A15. I'd be fine it was 1ghz
[Galaxy S III General] PoorCollegeGuy:
If you're dead set on getting a Nexus, you should stick it out and wait for the next round because they're probably going to be awesome (word is 5 different manufacturers are gonna be making them). The SGS3 phone is a great device, but if you're looking at a Nexus then you're obviously wanting something vanilla and the SGS3 is very, very far from vanilla.
[Galaxy S III General] Moh_Jay:
depends if you don't want to root then go nexus as that will be better in the update department but if you are rooting the sgs3 is definitely worth picking up now considering its the best smartphone of the summer and there will be a lot of dev support.

"All this knowledge is giving me a major brainer!"
[Galaxy S III General] sohebq:
look, the thing which is important is that can you wait with patience or not? if yes, then wait as long as you can to buy a better device than s3. there are no details out yet regarding next nexus, so no one can say how it will be. In this case you better buy s3 and enjoy ur present time.

[HTC Sensation] PantsFullOfGuns:
Whats up,

I just rooted my sensation which was running ICS prior I followed the procedure that was actually posted on this very forum. Any way I rooted the phone fine but I never updated the firmware or went s-off and tried flashing cyanogenmod which ended up bootlooping my phone. From my understanding updating the firmware should take care of this issue but I need to first get the phone to s-off. I am currently following the juopunutbear procedure (I have hboot 1.27.0000) and am using the fastboot usb since I cannot get past the htc or cyanogen loading screen. I get as far as the last command on the cmd prompt and the command prompt says (bootloader) zip header checking...

(bootloader) zip info parsing...

FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail) and once I unplug my phone from the usb the phones hboot screen says "Security fail! Update Fail! any help on how to get it s-off or to stop bootlooping is extremly appreciated! :D
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
You had ics prior right? Then no need to update the firmware.. You already git the required firmware

You are saying you are rooted and flashed cm9 so i presume you have htcdev unlocked bootloader and custom recovery

Now to get out from bootloop

If you have 4ExT recovery.. Then enable smartflash in (4EXT -tools). And flash rom again.

Or if you have Cwm recovery

Then

Do the extra 1 step from this below guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25587345

Remember you need to extract boot.img from the rom you've flashed (cm9) and use that for following extra 1 step

It will get you out of bootloop

[HTC Sensation] PantsFullOfGuns:
hmm thank you for the help, I believe I did what you and the instructions told me to do which was to put the boot.img file of the rom into the abd fastboot folder and then flash the rom from my computer ? I did this and the only difference now is the phone bootloops at the htc screen and not the cyanogenmod screan progress i suppose?
[HTC Sensation] bruddah:
Heyy i also have this problem but im using the Samsung galaxy s2 hercules (t989) but it was my first time. I used rom manager and i flashed cyanogen onto my phone and its been running the boot screen for about 10 minutes. Am i in a boot loop?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Because Galaxy S isn't a good choice of a phone, with the main shortcomings being:

1) Crappy GPS (more or less slow fixation time, high positioning error).

2) Slow internal memory (EXT4 and other lagfix types don't help, it's just slow).

3) Flashing unfriendliness (stupid Samsung thing of sticking recovery into kernel).

Today there are much better options.

And why does official CM support matter? I'd say that for actual phone usage it's much more important to get one of the good overlays - whether HTC Sense or Samsung TouchWiz 4 (because 3 is slow). Bare Android is far from being sufficient for many use cases.

Hey guys,

I had a little issue for the second time today. Before when I first rooted my razr back on GB and made a backup of it ans tried to restore after ,it would completely go through the process in recovery but when I would hit reboot,it wouldn't do anything after the dual core logo. Same thing happened today,made a backup of stock leaked .206 and installed the aokp rom. Got a little anxious to see if it would do the same thing and low and behold it did! So technically I'm stuck on this rom (not that I don't like it :P) but I don't wanna go through the whole process of using Droid utility and ics unstuck methods to go back ....any help would be appreciated!

Hello guys, I'm really thinking about jumping the ship from my EVO 3D to the galaxy, and have a question, It's Sense portable to the Galaxy? I love how the galaxy looks but I totally hate Touchwiz, I preferred ICS plain inted of Touchwiz.

Is that possible? I know a lot of developer are coming and that will be a good port to begins with because we will have Developers from Sprint, Verizon, ATT, T Mobile and more... A LOT OF COMPETITION, LOL

Its definitely possible, I've seen sense Ports on more than a few sgs devices. I've always had Samsung but since I got my wife a vivid,I have really enjoyed sense. It really is a beautiful ui. Either way though, the new tw its pretty nice, but sense would scream on the us sgs3... Btw, just pre ordered a white sgs3 :D
[Galaxy S III General] Reviewers:
Once we get CM9 it'll be a work in progress.
[Galaxy S III General] mlin:
Definitely a possibility and with the popularity of the GS3 I'm quite sure we'll see a port eventually. As previously mentioned, there have been sense ports to other galaxy devices in the past as well as the nexus s.

[HTC One X] MO3iusONE:
This phone is OK. Ice cream is okay. My biggest gripe is the soft keys. I do not understand the logic in it. If your going to give me the soft keys (ie. Back button, home button, recent apps button) then give me my Back, Home, Menu, and search button. Its crazy how unproductive I find myself all because I need to click the top right corner of the screen for the search button, when my nexus s or Droid pro simply had a search soft key at the bottom.

Please tell me there's a way or tweak this?

Here's what I want. The Recent Apps button(far right key) by default should be the search key. Holding The Recent Apps button should activate the Menu button. As with the Home Button, holding it down should active the recent apps button. Its that simple.

It doesn't have to be like that but somewhere along those lines. I really think Google took a step back with getting rid of the soft buttons. Sure it makes phones like the. Galaxy nexus look pretty but I'm trying to be productive here
[HTC One X] RogerPodacter:
Its nothing Google did. On my gnex I have 4 soft buttons, search, back, home and apps. The function is still there. HTC just decided not to. Its up to manufacturer. At least with soft buttons they can be changed to add functions.
[HTC One X] MO3iusONE:
I was watching a few videos on YouTube that showed some custom roms for the one x and it actually tweaks the soft keys so they act a lot like android devices with four soft keys. I am relieved! Lol

[HTC One X] MO3iusONE:
I don't really care whose fault it is. I'm looking for solutions eh
[HTC One X] MO3iusONE:
You know what? I am gonna blame Google for this. There was nothing wrong with the soft keys on all android hand sets. Yeah I think the menu keys on the galaxy nexua do look better but they seems impractical and it makes the menus inconsistent
[HTC One X] jonshipman:
The Menu and Search keys are deprecated as of Android 4.0. The reasoning behind it is that they did different functions in every app. With the back,home, and tasker buttons they are the same across the system regardless of what app you're in.

This is the info from the thread i posted at the wrong section

Hi all...
My friend sent his X8 to a phone shop to get it updated to android 2.3.7 and ended up with a bricked phone cause by that phone shop.

Now, which according to him stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" logo...Which i know is a soft brick and most probably can be saved by flashing it with PCC or SEUS or FlashTool.

I have ask him to flash it with SEUS or FlashTool, but not successful, still stuck on the SE logo, i doesn't know weather he do it wrongly or does not has any patient...

I gonna buy this phone from my friend, and repair the phone myself.
I want to ask u guys is there any other reason for the phone to stuck at the SE logo other than bricked phone? Could it be a hardware prob?

8/6/2012 UPDATE:

Just now my fren turn on the X8, it stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" text, and after a moment, the phone reboot itself and stuck at there again and reboot itself again and again...

guys, based on the latest update from my friend, can this phone be saved?

And do share some experience if u do encounter such prob...

9/6/2012 UPDATE:

This morning i trying to flash my phone again...

I flash it with android 1.6 stock ROM (1.3.A.0.62) and it would boot up normally...

I also try to update the phone from 1.3.A.0.62 to 2.1.1.A.0.6 by using PCC, but also remain the same...

Then i flash it with FlashToool using 2.1 stock ROM (2.1.1.A.0.6 and 2.1.1.C.0.0) it would ended up like this see the video below
