[HTC Amaze 4G] nguyendqh:
And if those aren't enough here's what I think:

Personally I wouldn't buy any phone without a shutter button because it makes it that much easier for me to use.

The Amaze let's you go straight to camcorder or camera from the lock screen/off screen simply by holding down the corresponding button.

This works wonders for when I want to capture moments with my kids.

And the One S? No removable battery, no microSD card...what is it, an iPhone?

I think it's original production name was iphONE S.

Seriously, think about it. Lol.
[HTC Amaze 4G] soundping:
Before you buy any phone check to see if there's a good developer community for it. What makes these smart phones smarter is solid development.

You're better off going for the s3. I know i am

[HTC Amaze 4G] shekki:
If sd card, removable battery, dedicated camera/camcorder button and NFC are important then you should go for the Amaze. On the other hand if none of that is important then I'd suggest going for the One S. From what I've seen, the One S has a pretty good developing community and HTC is currently supporting it as it's one of their flagship phones. While the Amaze is left in the dust sadly. :(
[HTC Amaze 4G] electronicrice:
I agree. I went from the Amaze (well still have it as a backup) to the Galaxy Nexus, so I'm in your reverse situation. Honestly, the hardware of the Amaze is top notch, so in that regard you wouldn't be disappointed.

However, if you are looking for a variety of things to flash and robust development, the Amaze is really not a good phone to get. It's no fault of the few developers we do have, but more a lack of proper drivers and source thanks to HTC abandoning this device.

If development is important to you, go with the HTC One S (better processor, GPU and screen) or the SGS3 (better everything) when it comes out on the 21st. Both will have better dev communities since they are flagship devices.

[HTC Amaze 4G] spiz516:
Purchasing either one right now is a poor consumer decision and would be very premature. I'm a fan of the Amaze, but not happy that HTC has abandoned it. I'd wait to play with the S3 and then weigh your options and decide what's most important to you.

[Windows 8 General] homer.web:
Hi, I have Bowers & Wilkins USB speakers, which works fine in Windows 8, including remote control of the applications, but what they do not survive unplug and plug operation. I am using them with my Lenovo T400s notebook, and after I plug them again, the Windows 8 says, that the USB device was not recognized. After restart its OK. I have found as well, that if I plug them while they are turned off and then turn them on, that this problem occurs. But if I plug them turned on, it seems, that it usually works fine. Anybody has similar problem with USB speakers? I am using Windows 8 With Media Center Release Preview Build 8400.

History:

Are you annoyed of the loading spinners on ICS??

Yeah those circles that go Round and round!!

Well this is a Mod that will simply increase the speed at with the frames are shown, so giving a feeling of smoothness to the loading circles.

First Thanks to D.O.C who made the first apearence of these spinners on GB in the SGS2 Days.

On the SGS3 also the procedure remains the same.

Files:

Depending on the wish of the Developer, you can increase or decrease the Frame Rate of the spinners and get the feel to you liking.

I have kept it to my liking, so if you guys want you can also mod it to what suits you best.

Let me give you an example..

Procedure:

progress_large.xml

Default SGS3 code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_black_76" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" android:frameDuration="100" android:framesCount="12"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />

Mod the Code to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_black_76" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" android:frameDuration="22" android:framesCount="46"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />

So what do you understand from this??

What you are doing here is simply increasing the frame rate of the spinner png.

(please hit up the source link above to see more info on this regard)

This same technique can also be applied on the ICS holo spinner, that's completely the dev's wish :D

all you have to do is increase the framerate of the holo spinner in the given time.

D.O.C - for sharing

HyperDroid Team - for sharing

(was implementing this on CheckRom S3, so thought i would share it)

Notice:

For people on the latest LF2 Stock Rom (Odex or Deodexed) use the CWM Flash able zip Below.

Taking this just in case!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kelvinyap9:
Thanks for this!

Will flash tonight and see how it goes.

Is it as easy as copy to SDcard, and flashing with CWM (the Chainfire one) or recovery?

Also, I have a feeling I should back up some stuff before doing so. Should I just backup these?:

- progress_large.xml

- progress_large_white.xml

- progress_medium.xml

- progress_medium_white.xml

- progress_small.xml

- progress_small_titlebar.xml

- progress_small_white

- search_spinner.xml

Thanks again!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueizee:
oh....and what would the correct battery level to put on charger be ?? is 20 to low?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 6stringandy:
I don't use the smart actions app myself, but I have the maxx and get a day and a half or so between charges on average.

A couple of questions for you though:

Which razr do you have, how much are you on it in a typical day (calls, text, web surf, games, mobile hotspot, etc.)

The reason I ask this is for you to ask yourself "what is really killing my battery" to help you figure out how your phone ticks a little better, and to say if its not maxx, the battery life isn't really gonna be all that great if you're using it all the time.

I work 12 hours a day, 5 days a week, so during the week, I'll typically go 2 to 3 days between charges because I don't use it much, too busy. On the weekends, it will barely make it 5 hours between charges because it provides internet for my ps3 so I can slay the undead all weekend long!

Process all that for a minute, figure out your usage pattern, then figure out what you need to change to get better battery life. And of course, never leave the house without your charger, just in case.

Hope this helps :-)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] refuse2bstopped:
Hold on, so are you telling me that the wifi tethering from just this phones 4g signal will actually hold up good enough for solid online game play for the ps3?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 6stringandy:
Oh yea, like a freakin champ. My wife and I live in a hotel for the time being because we just moved. Hotel wifi will get maybe 2mbps down, if I'm lucky to stay connected to it at all. The maxx 4g, anywhere from 4 to 6mbps down (megabytes, not bits). Take into account the occasional storm to screw with the signal a little, other than that its solid all the way.

Hell I've been wifi tethering my game systems since I had the dinc, although 3g gaming sucked a fat one!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bgouvea:
Seens like 3g-edge connection it is the main battery drain problem on razr.

At wifi, my razr lasts at least 1 day and a half. With 3g /auto sync turned on all the time, my battery last about to 16 hours with normal use.

So, I did the follow script on smart actions and my battery lasts around 1 day at least.

Open smart actions and add 24 time lapses: 00:00 - 00:45, 01-00 - 01-45, 02:00 - 02:45 and go on... do it for every hour.

Then, the trigger: "Screen turned off" and all the time lapses.

Then, actions: "Mobile data, turned off".

With this script, when your screen is turned off, the mobile data from 3g is going to be turned off too from 45 min every hour. And going to be on for 15 min every hour.

When you turn your screen on, the 3g data going to turn on.

The script do not affect your wifi connection.

Sorry about the bad english. Hope this helps.

My infuse was running aokpcb rom. i made a backup of my previous rom, AEON v1.3.1. i restored using nandroid back to AEON but when i reboot its stuck at the samsung screen. I tried GTGs Odin back to stock multiple times using different ports but it always gets stuck at factoryfs. i even rebooted the computer and tried it again but still no good. I've used Odin back to stock a couple times before so im used to the program. now ive ran out of ideas and i would greatly appreciate the help. THANKS

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Radiotsar:
Happens to my Infuse all the time now, even using Heimdall. I just pull the battery, get back into the alternate download screen, reload the drivers (if necessary) on the pc and re-run Heimdall. It always seems to get stuck twice, but works the third time. The last time I took it to stock & did a "factory data reset", just to see if that would clear up whatever the issue was. Unfortunately (?), I haven't tried going back to stock since.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clark Joseph Kent:
Not sure if your being understood.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Young_Khalifa:
Sorry for not responding. I've been at a summer camp for the past week. Anyways, when i try to install drivers with heimdall it aborts the procedure and then freezes the program... and when i plug in my phone into the wall charger, the screen stays off..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] redgrass83:
Heimdall is great when properly set up and WHEN IT WORKS. What I do, and this'll bring it back from pretty much anything, is use gtg unbrick, and if it doesn't boot from that flash, (and mine doesn't because its a rogers ) , i then flash the Odin stock lb3 pack, and boom back to normal no matter what I flashed. I imagine if you're running an at&t model , you shouldn't have to do the second step. Be sure to remove the battery and reinsert at least once on any from flash to be sure its not booting correctly before going to another step. Also be sure drivers are correctly installed through kies or kies mini. I find this is easiest with Odin because it clearly shows you in bright yellow that the download connection has been established.. many times i' very had to reinstall the kies drivers, I don't know why.. but try this , and like I say once you see yellow in Odin in phone download mode, you know you're set. Once again, like this kies/gtg/try booting/if no boot/pull battery try boot again/ if still no boot Odin lb3 stock and then flash a recovery kernel to regain cwm..

ive been trying the odin lb3 from gtg and it gets stuck on dbdata.rfs instead.. im kinda flipping out...

[HTC Sensation] gilla409:
Yet another "which case" thread (sorry.) Siedio Active vs. Otterbox Commuter?

I've been using a couple of different TPU cases, but I'm tired of the hit-or-miss quality control on them. They get the job done, but I think it's time for a proper case instead of going the cheap route.

I'm totally torn between the Otterbox Commuter and the Seidio Active cases. Both are dual layer (silicon and hard shell,) and are around the same price. I like the look of the Otterbox case more, but have heard horror stories about the silicon stretching out rather quickly. The Seidio seems to be designed to avoid this problem, but lacks the port covers and sleek look of the Otterbox.

Out of the two, which is better in terms of build quality, durability, button stiffness, and least bulky? Since they offer the same protection, I'm more concerned with those aspects... I just want a quality case that will last a long time without being warrantied due to design flaws (like I've heard about the Otterbox.)

So, what do you suggest?
[HTC Sensation] vernon092487:
I've been using the Otterbox Commuter series for almost 5 months now and the silicon is still intack.
[HTC Sensation] Pvt WhoOkid:
I have both and I can honestly say they were good but I got tired of the big bulky phone look. I recently purchased this one and to be honest I love it better then the other two.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005A2UR4W/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

As for which of the two I liked better? I like the otterbox better. I used it more. Hope this helps.
[HTC Sensation] gilla409:
Haha, that is actually the case I'm using now. It's okay, but I don't care for the way it is concave along the top edge, and the fit is a little off. I'm now looking for a higher quality case, that will protect my device for as long as I own it. I'm not too concerned with a little bulk, as I've had a case on it since I got it.

Thanks for the replies so far, please keep them coming!
[HTC Sensation] MissingBonobo:
I've been using the Otterbox Commuter case for a while now and I love it. Only complaint is the headphone port cover that doesn't like staying in. Not a big deal though. Love the case :)
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
IMO I'd always considered Ottercase as the ultimate protection. So I never really looked into getting one for my devices because I baby my phones :D. The farthest I've gone with the protection grade is the Seidio Active with kickstand. The protection is great in using it. I come to the realization that this case is ideal for traveling. Case in point, I had the Seidio on when I went to Disneyworld last year and at the Magic Kingdom shows, the crowds usually gather at the cobblestones at the castle. Being I have my, then 2 and a half year old, she was indeed a handful, even though my wife was there with me as well. lol.... Setting up the scene there, after the event, I had my phone on my lap and when the show ended, it was like a mad dash to move and not thinking, I stood up and the phone fell from my lap onto the stones. I freaked lol, but gladly the fall bounced on the corners and nothing was damaged.

Moral of the story, if you are a clutz get the otter box lol, if you are in an office most of the time, then get something a tad thinner and get the Seidio with the holster. That's what I have and I have to say is kinda business friendly in looks as well.

However, I cannot say anything negative about otterbox, because I have never used one on my devices. Heck, my Kindle Fire is also sporting the active case style :).

GL in your choice, its really your call in determining which is the "better" case. Kinda like beauty, this would be in the eyes of the beholder in a sense. :D

EDIT: And don't worry about the lack of holes on the back. It never affected how the phone worked signal and call wise.
[HTC Sensation] gilla409:
Thanks for all the replies, I really appreciate the input!

So far, I'm leaning toward the Otterbox Commuter case, though I won't be ordering until this afternoon... so if anyone has any last minute suggestions (even recommending another case,) I'm all ears. I'd rather not keep ordering cases in search of the right one for me, so any and all advice would be a huge help.

Thanks again!

Hello. I was thinking of trying to get .79 ICS on my RAZR. I did it once before, just to see if it would work and then went back to .181 GB. Are there ANY issues with .79? I will probably main it in the meantime if there isn't. Let me know someone. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Chase.Barnett:
I installed .79 last night and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

I live in Houston and I'm in Dallas for the weekend. Naturally, I brought my laptop only to get to my hotel to discover that the "free Wi-Fi" clocks in at a blistering 0.3 mbps. The good news? For $5.99 a day, I can get their super-duper speed of 3 mbps!

Yeah, no...

Downloaded FoxFi and found out that hotspot will not work on .79. I have tried multiple apps, none will provide my laptop with a data connection. So with the exception of hotspot, everything else is dandy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ricky54326:
Awesome! thanks a lot. I think I will try it out.. worst case, I will just go back to .181. I will let everyone know how it goes. Hopefully all stays well!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TBacker:
Strange... I'm running a Maxx on .79 and foxfi works for me. I use it frequently to supply my Transformer Prime with net access....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TBacker:
As to .79, I've had no killer issues and it seems to work pretty smooth.

Minor issues:

- Doesn't always detect when a Bluetooth device disconnects (icon still blue, and my EasyProfiles rules don't trigger).

- Has a tough time sometimes switching down to 3G when leaving a 4G cell.

- Using long-press on the launcher to select a widget results in a widget list that has white text on a white background.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Aliceics:
I've been running the .79 leak for maybe a month, I can't find anything wrong. Its a great leak but obviously not as great as the more recent leaks.

The only two bothersome issues I noticed is, when adding widgets from long press, its white text on white background. Also ICS's new feature of widgets in the app menu is a bit buggy. When you download a new widget it won't show up there for a while.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Chase.Barnett:
So its just me then?

Strange. I don't have a clue what the problem could be.
