[Nexus 7 General] Beeyoth:
i was wondering if i should get the nexus 7 or the archos 97 carbon.im not sure.i would like to have a tablet soon and i dont have that much patience for shipping and speed of the hardware.please answer.Im heading towards the nexus.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
The answer here is easy - you are in the wrong forum. A mod will be along shortly to move you to Questions and Answers...
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Probably the Nexus 7. I haven't owned an Archos device, but most of the reviews for their tablets on Amazon are lukewarm. Plus, developing will be better for the Nexus by far. But, just to assure you that the Nexus 7 is the better choice:

1. The Nexus is running on an A9 Processor (Tegra 3, of course) which is already a pretty dated seeing as there are a few A15s out there already. But seeing as the Tegra 3 is insanely powerful, it makes up for this. The Archos is still on an A8, which is very old in tech standards.

2. The screen on the Nexus has a better screen resolution despite being smaller. The Archos will probably be grainier and have much less detail than the Nexus because it has less PPI.

3. It will not be updated timely and it's already behind. Of course, nothing is really running on Jelly Bean other than Nexus devices, but don't expect the Archos to be updated to Jelly Bean very quickly.

4. The developer community will be very small. Archos is not a huge player in the Android market. I found one of their tablets with a 250gb HDD (an actual hard drive) really appealing last year until I found that there was very little developing for it.

5. It's basically a year old spec-wise. There really isn't anything there that can't be found in the original Transformer or Galaxy Tab 10.1. Really, nothing.

The only pro it really has is the expandable storage and screen size (but not a better screen). If you really desire these two things, go for it. But the Nexus is clearly the superior device.

I went to install this

on my GNEX running a Jelly Bean ROM. I flashed the .zip and when I rebooting it said System UI isn't working or something along those lines and the bottom buttons and the top bar don't show at all. I tried taking the system.apk from the my rom and replacing it with the system.apk in the flashable zip for the custom buttons so I can use the script to install the stock files but it hasn't worked so far. Any input is appreciated. I'd prefer to not reflash the rom and start over but if I have to thats fine.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] hotstocks:
So we have a great phone with a horrible screen brightness problem.

Samsung touts its great battery life, (well yah with a dim screen).

I find I must always use 100% brightness setting to make the screen

even 1/2 as bright as my older phones (Evo, etc.). Even at 100% brightness,

white is not white, it is grey/light brown and the battery only lasts a few hours.

Very sad, I wish we could do something about this. And if you look closely,

a lot of colors are really a color with a grid pattern all over it. I am 47 and my

eyes are not that great, but pentile still sucks IMO, no matter how much

review sites rave about the great screen (yah it is big and crisp), but it

still is a dim sucky screen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] KLUVJ:
thats why u go with the one x~~

since screen is the most importatn part of the phone you interact with, i chose to get the best screen on the market. however, i do envy ur battery life though.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] TitaniumBarbell:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] hotstocks:
You can get like a 4300 to 4500 mah extended battery off ebay or amazon

with a back cover for like $20. Then the phone will last twice as long, more

than enough to cover a heavy day at 100% brightness. Plus it will make the

phone thicker, I can't stand how thin and delicate the GS3 is, it practically

slips out of your hand, they should have made the phone thicker with a

bigger battery to begin with (Droid Max).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Mac33:
Turn off auto adjust screen time option in the display settings to make your screen brighter. It'll make your whites better as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] djricekcn:
In regards of battery, don't trust third party brands unless if they are authorized by the maker themselves. For batteries, third parties usuallly suck in many ways, in worst cases, overheating.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] EndlessDissent:
I wouldn't go that far. I had my GS3 turned up to 100% earlier today and compared it to my sister's Evo 4G LTE, and it was practically the same brightness. I assumed her phone was set to around 50-60%, but when I checked her settings, it was set to 100%. Hers was a bit brighter, obviously, but they were a lot closer brightness-wise than I thought they'd be.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] midnitecoupe:
If you need your brightness at 100%, you may want to get your eyes checked. Also, which you might already be aware of this, Samsung roms have a brightness setting in the internet browser as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] cesjr02:
That is strange. I have not experienced this at all. I have both the GS3 and the original Evo and they seem about the same at 100%. The GS3 is, (to my eyes) easier to see because of the contrast. Meaning I feel like I can get away with setting the brightness to a lower setting without sacrificing readability. As for battery life I'm getting a consistent 14 hours with moderate to heavy use. (It's a new toy, I can't put it down.)

Hopefully you can compare your phone to another, see if they're any different.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Randomacts:
I have mine at 75ish % the auto is pretty garbage. I can't wait till cm9/10.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] hotstocks:
I don't need my eyes checked.

Forget about the whites not even being as white as the Evo.

Try a game like ShadowGun, even at 100% brightness the game

is dim and oversaturated colors. On the Evo the game is significantly

brighter and objects/details are easier seen, not everything is dark.

This phone gets GREAT blacks, but everything is darker because of it.

Right now I have Verizon and can upgrade next month but my contract ends in december if I upgrade with Verizon I'll loose my unlimited I was thinking about going to att cause I'd get an extra gig for the same price then was thinking about sprint cause they have the cheapest plan and unlimited but no 4g I either want to get the HTC evo lte/htc one x or the S3. So I guess I'm wondering if I should break my contract and get another gig with att, go with sprint for unlimited but only 3g for who knows how long or should I just stick with Verizon?

[General Questions and Answers] Crashdamage:
I really, really hate VZ. Been with T-Mobile for 14 years and very happy. Good service and best prices. Very good coverage in my area.

Speaking of coverage... Coverage with any carrier is EXTREMELY location-dependent. Coverage maps can only give approximate coverage areas. Signal strength within a coverage area can come and go from mile to mile, block to block or even room to room.

People are constantly asking about coverage but trying to give meaningful advice about expected coverage is just worthless. It is. The only thing that really works is first, check a map to get a rough idea what to expect. Pick a provider that shows good coverage in the area then actually try their service in places you expect to use it. Walk around the house, work, etc and see if it drops calls or loses data connection.

It's the only way to be fairly sure you'll be happy with any provider's signal quality.

[General Questions and Answers] Mark930:
Yea I'm starting to hate Verizon as well with the shared data andno option for the individual plans anymore unless your grandfathered in like me but that will probably change next year like there doing with the unlimited plans. Both att and Verizon have about the same coverage in my area. Sprint has cover mostly in my area but some dead zones. And tmoblie only has voice in my area so that's out of the question. I'm thinking I'll stick with Verizon even though I really don't want to... was also thinking about a prepay smartphone but none in my area has good enough coverage.

[General Questions and Answers] Gvndeb60:
But being that Verizon is CDMA, phones sell much cheaper here and on eBay. You could get decent phone for $300ish, not use your upgrade, and keep unlimited. Just a thought.
[General Questions and Answers] androidsc:
Locked bootloaders prevent custom images/roms from being loaded on the device. A good example of that is the now ancient DROID X on VZW there was a huge fuss about their being a chip that would destroy the phone and ish, but I digress, it essentially makes it so you can only load VZW Official or VZW based roms. No AOKP, No CM- anything etc.

If you're not into that, it's not a big deal. But I, as a flashaholic must have unlocked bootloaders.

Now carrier wise, Tmo is better because if you exceed data they just slow you down.

Att (mine) charges $10/GB over 3GB so 2GB over costs you the same as the 5GB plan essentially.

Sprint... Well do you want people to hear you?

But as it was said before, coverage is the deal breaker. But Tmo is also adding brought spectrum from VZW, which should prove interesting since the Tmo/Att merger got the kaibosh

I just upgraded with Verizon which forced me to change to a shared plan from unlimited. I was bummed about this, but Verizon has been amazing to me.

Here's how I justified it. Largest network/Best service. I had unlimted data...I rarely use more than 100 - 500mb as I have Wifi at home and at work/school. So it wasn't really a loss. Check out your data use...do you really use that much data? (You could, I'm just sharing my experience)

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] NullUser:
Hi!

I have a Samsung device of 8GB with an SD card of additional 32GB.

I'm using many apps that cache data for offline use (mainly Google Play Music), these apps are not smart enough to determine the 32GB of available space and take advantage of it, but instead claim 'no space'.

I thought perhaps there is a workaround for it by merging the external storage with the internal so the apps 'think' there is 48GB.

I don't use several SD cards which means I'm not gonna switch SDs back and forth any time soon.

Do you know a hack for it? Or any solution to make Google Music store its stuff into all available space wherever it is?

I've read this link, which I believe targets my issue, but since I'm not so much into Android development, I didn't understand it, can anyone refer me or translate it into a more detailed guide.

P.S. My device is rooted.

OK I managed to install it.

It only gives an option to move from internal storage to SD card, I wanna use EXTERNAL SD, havent managed to find that option.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I have not seen anyone successfully join the two cards on the galaxy player. However on the player series you can change your internal and external cards around. This means your 32GB card will become your internal sd card and the 8GB card will become the external card. However, this means you cannot remove your 32GB card as you are effectively removing the internal memory which leads to a range of issues. Also depending on the class of your 32GB card you may see a performance increase/decrease when reading from or writing to the system.

Dirty Flashed over 129 and only 1 problem has popped up. Yesterday the phone hardlocked, causing the CPU to overheat (aka, the hot battery). It did this twice.

My overall exposure to this ROM has only been a couple of days, so I can't point at either one being the cause. I'll be keeping an eye on the phone in the hope to narrow down what's causing it.

My phone is constantly struggling for service which has a poor effect on battery life and I just hit 21hrs on battery. Extremely stable as well and considering I was only running 1ghz on stock and faux and 1.1ghz on elp I find it substantially faster (more than 10%) despite the minimal 100mhz difference.

There are a few known issues with the accelerometer and compass however I don't use those features so I am indifferent.
