[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
I've had both. I'll sum it up for you.

Buy the One X if:

You want a better display, SLCD2 has made great leaps compared to its previous version. The colours are far more closer to natural compared to the SGS3, whites are whiter, but blacks not as deep as AMOLED. No black crushing suffered, not as over saturated as AMOLED, brighter screen all round and outdoor visibility is excellent. It makes use of RGB rather than pentile so text appears sharper and clearer.

You want a better camera, both cameras are good but the HOX edges it on low light conditions due to its lower aperture allowing more light, the software is also better, you can capture upto 99 burst shots straight away where as on the SGS3 it's only upto 20 and you have to go into settings and enable it all the time. Photos appear well you should check out both forum sections and the post your best photos thread to see which takes the better pictures.

You want better gaming, Tegra 3 has some exclusive titles made for Tegra 3 and they play back better on this phone, sure you can get chain fire for the Samsung but native support is a plus. Games run smooth and will only get better when Nvidia update their kernel.

You want a better looking device, very subjective but I think it looks better than the Samsung and build quality is superior, the matte finish is lovely and I like how the sensors are hidden.

Sense, I find sense better than TouchWiz for its social aspect, it's contact management is better and social networks integration is better. The widgets are also useful and just looks more refined than TouchWiz. Again subjective, TouchWiz has useful features like better codec support and such.

Updates, HTC is generally better in providing software updates compared to Samsung.

Buy the Samsung if:

You want expandable storage,

If you need a removable battery,

If you prefer TouchWz,

If you want to have better speed, TouchWiz is better optimised and runs silky smooth where as you can see micro lags on the HOX.

If you want better audio for headphones, it packs a Wolfson DAC and once voodoo is out it'll only sound better,

If you want a screen that has deeper blacks, and over saturated colours and greater contrast. Screens are subjective but mine had noticeable blue tinting on two of my SGS3s which was annoying. AMOLED is also prone to screen burn.

If you want a better video recorder, no match for the HTC but the audio side is not as good as the HOX.

Unlocked boot loader out of box, with the HTC unlocking your boot loader via the official method will play havoc on the warranty.

If you need the software features such as smart stay, s voice and such.

Both are great phones, if you don't need extra storage and removable battery then you should consider the HOX as its a great phone. End of the day both are high end android phones and you won't be disappointed with either, looks, build, screens, UI, are all subjective matters and the best way to make your decision is to get a hands on with both phones as I know many will agree with me and many will disagree with me but the above is my personal views from having both handsets.

Hey MurrayBarn !

Edit the topic name to "HTC ONE X or Samsung Galaxy S3" not "HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy 3

Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-i5800 is also a device present in galaxy series. Its a lowend device. So the topic name is misleading. (Just noticed it now. LOL :D :D)

HTC ONE X is no match with Samsung Galaxy 3..!! XD

Sense was rated the best and smoothest overlay by a few big names I've played with both and sense seems better HTC has been doing these skins way longer than Samsung ..also if he's going to root and ROM then samsungs software add ons are kind of irrelevant unless he stays close to stock Roms which then sucks because he doesn't get all the deep levels of customization as much as a totally redeveloped ROM

I don't know if there are any stores that still do this, but in Ktown (Los Angeles) and Garden Grove, there are phone dealers who sell Korean imported phones. A lot of them have gone out of business over the past 5-6 years, but I'm sure there are a few left. They would probably be able to import you a Korean phone.

I would suggest picking up a Korean newspaper or circular if you're in the areas and looking through the ads as this is where I've seen it advertised.

The only other option is eBay. I'm sure sooner or later, one will pop up there.

After a final successful attempt I was able to flash the jelly bean rom off clockworks install rom section. I understand that after an OTA update the root goes away. However, after attempting to reboot into recovery mode and flashing a superuser zip, I get the little android with the red exclamation (oh God not that! :) I know if you you re flash optimus prime it normally fixes the issue, but does this reflash a stock rom? What's the best approach around this issue. You can't go into recovery from clockwork because you need SU access. Need help on the best method to fix this issue. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
When you flashed the ota it replaced your cwm recovery and took your root.

you'll need to reflash cwm via fastboot before you can flash superuser back

You could have also Politely requested the developers in the CM9 beta 9 general section thread by posting your problem there.

Why make a new thread just to Tell the developers what they should do.

You first posted rudely and also made a new thread just to ask a solution for you problem.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiveMe2Beers:
Hi guys. First of all let me tell this is far the best Android phone ever had.

But....

This is the second GS3 I have, and both of them have that annoying yellow tint on whites. You can see clearly on whatsapp, web, mailing, whites plain backgrounds.

It's also hard to forget, because when I move the screen 15-20 degrees using it the whites magically became real white, perfect white.

A friend has the same issue with his GS3 but he told me he saw in a shop a GS3 with perfetc whites with no tint at all, white as ice.

With my previous GS2's had some very light blue tint that didn't annoyed me at all (insted, I liked that cold whites temperature).

Tried screen adjuster but dind't help

Any of you guys experienced that?

Cheers.

Let's just say that the type of lighting you are under have a big impact on how you perceive the color temperatures on your phones. Under lighting in my local phone store my phone looks to have neutral white. Under fluorescent lights in my office it looks slightly pinkish. In indirect sunlight it looks yellowish. Under low evening sun it looks bluish.

Supercurio is working on the app DisplayExpert which makes it possible to calibrate the screen.

He has it running on his S III according to his Twitter.

But the app is not finished yet.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiveMe2Beers:
Hi. Thank you for your reply.

I don'n know much about supercurio's works...

Is it much more or less like "Screen Adjuster" (link) that lets you correct using blue, red, green?

Because I've used it but it didn't help. :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erahk64:
I think it is more advanced than Screen Adjuster after reading his Twitter..

But you could ask him if DisplayExpert is better at fixing yellow tint than Screen Adjuster.

Hi guys, really thanx to all for your hints. :good:

Unfortunately unchecking "Auto adjust screen tone" and changing screen modes didn't help changing the whites gradient/temperature.

I have my warranty and the entire box at hand and I need to reassure myself before I head to the service center and request for a replacement. If not, I'll just sell it off.

I'm too, disappointed by the yellow tint that comes with this high res screen. As with others, tilting 20 deg will make the whites cooler. I did a bit of digging and found that there are many different shades of white. The usual white, or at least the one that I'm used to, on my Desire HD, is reddish/pinkish white.

You can do a bit of experimenting by looking at a blank page on SIII for half a minute, then look at another phone. If the white is different, it maybe due to different color casting. This will be particularly annoying still if you have to stare at screen tuned to a different temp at your workplace, and when you are ready to relax and use your phone, wham, you hate your S3 again.

I read a lot of 'black text on white background' and this annoy me as hell. I think that yellowish white make me think I'm reading off a piece of wash out toilet paper.

What do you guys think?

Sorry for double post that was a screen shoot out I linked...the screen should be down a bit to 6500k for accurate color temp. I can't wait for supercurios screen app it will improve battery life. Maybe op should exchange his phone.big was at Verizon store today the display model was quite blue as well no yellow here.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jabberwockyyy:
Hey man I'm not noticing any tinting of my colours at all.. Or it might just be me being really obtuse. Aha.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jabberwockyyy:
Why will calibrating the screen improve battery life?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nativestranger:
In browser go to menu, colors and select level 1. That will make it less yellowish.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiveMe2Beers:
Mine not for sure. I wish it was bluish like most samoled I had, like GS2.

It's just yellowish instead, and a can see true whites only if I tilt the screen 20 degrees. Seems like a old paper, non beatiful to see.

Gonna return for the second time, but I'm not really confident I will find a GS3 with real whites display like gs2, like I want, like a 600€ 4,8" is supposed to.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aphova:
Same story for me. Second SGS3 with a yellow tint. If I tilt the phone up or down slightly the whites look right.

Being s-on means that you cannot flash radio or firmware.

Hi everyone,

my A510 is driving me crazy.

Here is what I’m trying to do:

I want to run Ubuntu and connect to it with AndroidVNC.

I emulate the Ubuntu with Terminal Emulator and it is running fine without any errors.

I go back to the Homescreen and open AndroidVNC. I fill in the necessary fields and hit connect.

And instantly I get this error message:

Error!
VNC connection failed!
Failed to connect to /127.0.0.1 (port 5900): connect
Failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)

I tried to connect with Jump and basically the same result. I tried different ports or “localhost” instead of I.P. I used a different emulator and no success.

I also tried different ways to run Linux but none of them solved my Problem.

The androidVNC itself is running fine. I can connect to my Laptop (TightVNC Server running on it) via WLAN and control it.

The only thing it won’t do is connect to the Linux running on the Terminal Emulator.

Do you have any ideas or hints on how to solve the problem?

Found this interesting and tested it on my A700.

The vnc password is "ubuntu" even if you set a different one on first start.

In the terminal window must show up the line "New 'X' desktop is localhosr:0" after you entered the screen size.

Now I can connect via VNC. I use "ubuntu" as nick, password and username. IP is "localhost".

Hope these few hinty may help.

Thanks for your reply.

I have reset my Tablet to factory settings and rooted it again.

Installed Terminal Server and AndroidVNC. Emulated Linux and again the same result.

I don't know why it does not want to connect to the localhost.

My settings are exactly as in the description(s).

Did you use the image provided by this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zpwebsites.linuxonandroid ?

This worked for me, even if the result is not very usable. Must figure out, how to use a different window manager, the default one is missing some graphics and has problems with the launchbar icons.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Rixar:
Tried this one as well. No success.

I just don't get it. The device is properly rooted with the "one click" version. Root check tells me it is rooted.

Busybox is succesfully installed. The Linux is running in the emulator but i just can't connect to it.

The strange thing is:

The error message is the same, whether I fill in the fields in AndroidVNC or not.

It absolutely refuses to connect to 127.0.0.1 or localhost.

Really frustrating....
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] DЯΦiDi@П:

"ps -a" should show a "Xtightvnc" process.

hey @all,

at first i got the sgs. After some month i root it and later i flashed cm7 and then cm9 and i loved it.

now i have the sgs3. and the stock rom is ****.

its laggy, i miss a lot of features and so on. so, at the moment i have a view on cm9 on sgs3.

and when i read some posts and known issues i thought about some things like:

- TVout doesn´t work an should never work.

so, the cm projekt is open source. but i can update the cm os with some original files from samsung to solve the prob (for me). right? or is is not so an easy way?

- radio doesn´t work

so i thougt i can copy the radio app in /system/apps (i write down the path out of my mind)

Some samsung apps has nice features (like the video player).

Can i use the app like copy it on the cm os?

the main question is, can i customize the cm os with original samsung apps and samsung configs, so that all thinks will work.

is there someone who has/will create some packages for that?

great thanks for replys :cool:

Since updating OTA to Jelly Bean on my GNex, I'm unable to connect to my home network when it's set to "Wireless N only" on either 2.4 or 5 GHz. This worked (and still does) on any ICS build I ran.

I have no issues seeing the networks, but clicking "connect" results in no authentication, IP address assignment, etc. I've just about exhausted basic troubleshooting (no wireless security, MAC reservations, static IP, reboot-o-rama) but the only thing I can do right now is utilize the "NG Mixed" mode on the 2.4 GHz network.

I've seen this issue rear its head on previous Android builds/phone models but no one seemed to have a definitive fix. I'm pretty sure it's a software issue as I had no problem until flashing Jelly Bean.

Any suggestions on where I can log this to submit for troubleshooting or tweak the software would be greatly appreciated.
