Yeah, it was kinda strange for me too. On the market (via Chrome) it said that my device isn't compatible, when I scanned a QR code it said that I can't download it outside the UK, but Market Enabler did the trick.

It's such a good app! :)

Anyone been able to find a work-around for the HBO/Max Go HDMI limitation. On GB I used Xternal Monitor available from the Market but that doesn't want to run on ICS. Anyone able to mirror the apps to HDMI?
[General Topics] bnevets27:
I know there is a couple threads on here and a few other places but they seem to get side tracked very quick battling between specific features, and most of these threads are in one of the phones sections making the people disusing usually a little bias.

Little info on me. Currently own a samsung captivate (i9000 variant), running cm9 and devil kernel thanks to the amazing dev's here. I've loved all the roms and modification that can be done to this phone.

Now I'm looking into getting a bit newer phone (but mostly likely it will be a used phone)

I really like a phone that is supported by the community here, as they are the ones who bring the latest and greatest.

Keep in mind what is important to me is screen, camera and browsing speeds. Not in that order. And don't care about storage space or gaming.

So the phones I have been looking into are:

Galaxy Nexus - i9250 (TI OMAP 4460, Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9, PowerVR SGX540)

Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE - i9210 (international?) i727 Skyrocket (AT&T) / i727R (Rogers) (Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon,Dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion,Adreno 220)

Samsung Galaxy S2 - i9100 (international) / i777 (AT&T) (Exynos C210,	Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9,Mali-400MP)

Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE HD - E120S (Qualcomm MSM8660 Snapdragon,Dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion,Adreno 220)

Basically the between the Nexus and the GS2 but there is so many GS2 variants. I worried if I get a variant then there is less community support for it. Does the Nexus perform better due to all of the code being optimized by google? I would like the speeds of LTE but is it much of a difference? (I plan to go to a store and use an HSPDA phone vs a LTE phone) but it would have to be a GS2 variant.

Galaxy Nexus Pros:

Screen

Supported by google (but that doesn't mean to much with xda supporting the GS2 phones)

GS2 Pros:

Camera? (Supposed to be better at low light and video)

SD Card slot (tho this isn't really a big deal to me at all)

So not taking into account chipset or CPU:

Nexus vs GS2:

Nexus better screen

GS2 better camera

Nexus vs GS2 LTE:

Nexus better screen

GS2 better camera and faster internet

Nexus vs GS2 LTE HD:

Nexus - nothing better?

GS2 - better camera, better screen/equivalent, faster internet (but also higher priced and less common)

Does the CPU manufacturer and/or chipset/GPU make a big impact in performance? I seem to be reading it does but it sounds like opinion not fact when I've read it....

I've been wondering also how the GS2 LTE HD stacks up to the GS3 dual core version, as they have similar specs. Looks like the S3 just has a little bigger screen and a bit better battery life, due to slightly newer Snapdragon CPU.
[General Topics] zatara214:
The Nexus will /always/ have better support from developers than anything else. Nexus phones are incredibly popular and draw huge crowds.

That said, the S2 is also a very popular phone with arguably the second best community support behind it next to the Nexus.

My suggestion would be to go with the Nexus phone simply because you'll get it direct from Google. It's a much more fluid experience. Samsung's custom software is quite a pain, and even if you decide to run custom software on the phone, there are always going to be some aspects (like hardware keys) that don't match Google's current specifications. I'm telling you this as a current AT&T Galaxy Note user, which has the same hardware as the S2 Skyrocket.

I have noticed that my Verizon SGS3 will randomly turn WiFi on. It will be off completely and just turn itself on then make a connection with whatever WiFi spot I have previously connected to.

Was wondering if anyone else is having an issue like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
Chances are you won't get a response on this issue, since there are about a dozen other threads about it. I think it has something to do with a conneciton optimizer, however, Verizon didn't give users the ability to disable it.

You can format it with the phone. Don't format USB storage as it is the internal storage! Format the SD card, some users make that mistake before.

If not, use another phone to format it or with another computer.

[Acer Iconia A500] JackMetal:
I finally got around to applying the ICS OTA update to my A500 (Image is Acer_AV041_A500_RV05RC01_PA_CUS1 - Build is 1.033.00) but just realized it still has the old 2.6 kernel and not 3.0. Is that typical? Most ICS updates I've seen on other devices updated the kernel to the correct one also, so I was surprised to still see the old one.

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
That "is" the ICS kernel build ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] JackMetal:
Hmmmm. All of my other ICS devices are on the 3.0 kernel. ICS is based on 3.0 and JellyBean on 3.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] lowsum:
You are confusing android version # and linux kernel version. There is no definite kernel version for ICS or JB, it just depend of manufacturer's will...it would be great to have the latest kernel thought. TegraOwners's rom is on 3.1 if you really care.
[Acer Iconia A500] JackMetal:
My bad.... Didn't realize the manufacturers we're being slackers....but No, I'm definitely not confusing the android version and Linux kernel....I'm a loooooong time Linux Guy. ;-) My main mistake must have been paying attention to the Wikipedia article on all of the android versions. It specifically stated that ICS was using 3.0 and JB 3.1 (which has been my experience recently with my other devices).

Thanks for the heads up though! :-)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] gogetakakaroot:
guyzz how to increase fps rate..pls help
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Chamiakas:
Simply use ChainFire3D with texture reduce option ticked, use performance governor with min/max frequency at 832Mhz, also select deadline as I/O scheduler, turn off radio data (mobile network, airplane mode). Thats pretty much sums it up.

By the way, you have to have root access to do most of the things mentioned, except airplane mode of course.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] gogetakakaroot:
thanks for replying..but i think you are not getting my question

actually i want to play 1280*720 videos on my cell smoothly and that is possible by increasing fps rate i guess.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] RomsWell:
Smooth hd play is dependent on hw. I don't know what video types your using but it will play fine if you use a codec and container that your phone supports. If you use the proper file type and Codec your phone will use hardware and not software to decode. Hardware decoding is much smoother then software. And much easier on the batt while playing.

Also u can grab mxplayer off the market. In the top right corner of the app while playing a video it will show u if its using hw or sw to decode. U can also switch between the two. But it will help u narrow down friendly codec and containers for u.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Chamiakas:
^ What he said. The problem now is that our little SGY plays any video (I think) in software mode, that is, and is completely dependent on CPU speed (frequency). Just as said, the GPU inside sits and does nothing to help the CPU to decode video. Thus we are not able to play 720p or 1080p videos. Unless H/W acceleration works properly, it's impossible to play HD videos for now. But really, it doesn't matter, cause you couldn't tell a big difference from 720p to, lets say, 480*640 because of SGY's small screen size and low DPI.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] gogetakakaroot:
i have tried mx video player...720p videos play but very roughly....my friend has.got a

samsung galaxy fit...in his phone 720p video plays smoothly..he told me that he has increases his fps from 15 to 30.he is not telling me how to do it.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] RomsWell:
And when using mx player did u look to see what its decoding with. I just looked at your phone specs. There's not a chance in hell it will do it unless u use a supported codec and container
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] gogetakakaroot:
its decoding with s/w..as when i select h/w for 720p files it shows that"is not supported"..tell me the possible solution to it.thanks:-)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
I don't think if hardware is made to play HD videos
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] RomsWell:
I've alrdy told u what you can do. Re encode your videos into a format your phone will use. I didn't see a gpu in your specs. So I don't know if your phone will support hardware decoding. Research your phone and try to find a format it likes. Or upgrade ;) and click thanks on everyone's post in here.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Chamiakas:
Any video format won't play in H/W mode on SGY because of the drivers fault.

Just for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoCore

Look at the bottom of the table.

For now we are dependent on sheer CPU power.

$200 is the carrier subsidized amount you pay. Sprint pays $300 for the phone upfront and make it back from you via you PAYING your bills. (they don't profit till the 2nd year of contract).

There is a reason OFF CONTRACT phones cost $500+.

im assuming your account wont be cancelled right away.. it will first be suspended for non payment then after so much time will be cancelled for non payment at which you would have so much time to pay it before it goes to collections.. once the account is cancelled the esn is good.. sprint still makes there money which is why they have etf's.. if you dont pay it they sell it to the collectors who harass you until its paid..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jyveturkey:
Yeah...I don't know what makes him think that if he's exactly 1 day late, they will cancel the phone. Sorry dude, doesn't work that way. I don't think they suspend service till you are 30 days late. Even then the account isn't "cancelled". Eventually it will be. The etf will be tacked on to the bill you already owe. After an amount of time, it'll then go to collections, in which case, the amount owed will "grow". At the end of the day, collections, late fees, etf fees. It will be big bucks and screwed credit.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
As far as I know blackberries are still the only phones that do that
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ParallelProcess:
Chainfire makes an app called NoMoarPowah! which lets you schedule your phone to power itself back on at a specified time. It can also suggest a wakeup time based on your alarms. I think your phone needs to be plugged in for it to work, but that should be fine for your situation.

It's free on the Play Store, just search for it. (can't post links, sorry)

Good day gang,

I was trying to sort out a USB Host problem and from another forum I was following a thread in which they stated to flash a .pit etc etc etc. Last time i do something from another forum. Ive been here since WinMo days....i know better than that....

Well...I've loaded up Odin....got my ROM (Factory) and it would hang on NAND Write Start. From there it would do nothing.

Thanks Mate.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Had that yesterday (only worse, Odin stopped half way during the flash), pull the battery and wait 30 seconds, put back battery and cover. Insert a jig in the phone`s usb port and you`re in downloadmode. Now flash a stock rom with Odin V3 3.0.4.

If you don`t have a jig you could try in manualy (volume down + menu + power button at the same time).If that doesn`twork there are threads on this site to revive your phone after a bad flash, please search for them. Good luck
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul_Days:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul_Days:
Should I try a 3 part ROM and Re-Partition? Before bricking I just loadad a PIT by itself.....thats when the phone bricked.....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
First close everything Kies related, also in the windows traymanager. Rightclick on the bottom windows bar and select taskmanager, there are Kies aplications also and end them. Tick autoreboot and f.reset.time then retry flashing the rom with Odin. You don`t need an extra pit file because it is inside the rom already. Report back after you`re done please.

So you borked your partition table by flashing a .pit? It would probably be a good idea to go one step back and fix your partition table before trying to flash a Rom.
