As the title goes..is there any feature you miss from the previous versions?

Is there any feature on any other OS that you would like to see in Android?

Any new features you would like for android KLM? :p

As for me, i would like to see an OS which roots the device on installation.. :p

There was already a discussion about this feature yesterday in the images thread but..

Wireless mirroring, like airplay. I think that would be an excellent addition to Android.

Yeah i did see that...but thats like a dedicated image thread..this is solely for the purposes of discussing the features...
[Off-topic] WiredPirate:
Oh no that's not what I meant. I like the idea of this thread, we need a place to request and talk about features. I just didn't want people to think I was beating a dead horse by bringing it up again.

[Off-topic] WiredPirate:
Sweet! Hopefully its fully integrated into Android very soon.

Two more smaller features I would like to see are announcing the callers name before ringtone (which is on some phones) and strobe the camera LED flash during calls. Optionally of course. I know there are some apps that announce callers name, but I haven't found one that works the way I want: announce caller one time, start ringtone from begining and dont announce callers name again. And there are LED strobe apps too, but those haven't worked for me since Gingerbread.:mad:
[Off-topic] K.A.:
Agree...Nokia phones have the announce caller name feature by default...

Holo Red is the one i like.

I mean sure, there are a few good themes, but let's have a silent moment thinking CM7 themes...

Most of the CM9 themes are too "fancy" for my taste. "Real" pictures as status bar icons, too many different colors etc. I prefer minimalistic themes.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] EpicSurge:
Where can i buy one off contract? The tmo store will not sell it as of yet.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] belly1026:
A few options:

- Non T-Mobile phone stores (In Houston, I tend to look for cell phone stores in Chinatown)

- Craigslist (Always ask for seller's ID due to the blocked IMEI scam on the rise)

- E-bay

- Market place on here (I think I've seen a few)

- Did you try calling T-Mobile directly? Also, just FYI, my friend bought her 16GB White T999 from a T-Mobile store here in Houston TX for full price (payment plan) about two weeks ago. So I'm not sure why (I'm assuming) you were told that T-Mobile store will not sell it yet or why the store wouldn't sell it to you.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] EpicSurge:
please elaborate on the ID, you mean ask them for the IMEI?

I want to buy it off craigslist but it's obvious people stole bulks of these phones off somewhere.

I called the TMo stores directly, not the company. They all told me they have a memo from Tmo not to sell off contract s3's until further notice.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] DanJamesJr:
They are available for their value plans but you will be making payments on $599 plus tax.

.. via SGH-T999 by TT2
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Android_Monsters:
On craigslist make sure they give you the receipt is one way to go. Or have them meet you at a T-Mobile store (preferred) when you do the exchange. Kinda like buying a used car and meeting at the dmv to change title.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] belly1026:
No. Not asking for the IMEI number because the IMEI will be on the phone and on the box.

What I mean was this: A lot of people buy their phones on Craigslist and the phone will be working for a few weeks or a month before it will eventually stop working. When you call it in, you will be told that the phone was reported stolen and as such, the IMEI was blocked, rendering the phone to be useless on T-Mobile's network. What had happened was, the person selling the phone on CL would have claimed the phone to be stolen and received a replacement phone through insurance. This way, he would have your money and still own a galaxy S3.

For example of what I think is an example of such scam, click me

So, when you do a transaction on CL, take a screen shot of the CL ad, do the transaction at a T-Mobile store. Always ask for a receipt or any kind of proof of purchase, and ask for their personal ID so you can track them down in case the phone was reported stolen so you can have support for when you go to the Police (if you choose to go to the police).
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] aznmode:
Thanks for the info. First time with tmo and was going to return my Costco s3 and try to get one on CL so Im not stuck on a contract. Now that I know this ill be more weary with phones off contract. Quick question. Besides getting their ID info which could be difficult to do, could you technically let T-Mobile know that you just bought it off craigslist and have the seller give his info to them which the seller would most likely do rather than give you his ID. Assuming ofcourse that he is also with using tmo service so his account can be noted.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] potentdro:
Wow thats crazy.

Here's my short story.

The family decided to start a new 2 year contract and everyone got Galaxy S2's. This was like in April. Sold the S2 because I wanted the S3.

Started looking on Ebay, then Craigs. I checked on Craigs one day and found a pretty good deal for a sealed blue 16gb (though I had to give up the micro sim in the deal). Jumped on it that same day and met locally. I get to the spot and it turned out the seller is the older brother of this dude I knew in middle school/high school (they were both there at the spot). In my head I was like oh nice, this should be easy.

Opened it up on the spot, paid the guy, and left.

I feel pretty lucky for that to happen. I mean, of all chances I was able to meet up with someone on Craigs that I know.

But hearing these stories of people scamming people through IMEI is crazy.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruicc:
hi,

I've using Go SMS with BLN for a long time without any problems...till now.

I can't give a precise date about when Go SMS stops working with BLN, maybe 2 months ago, but indeed it's not working anymore.

I tried all the possible settings and combinations, but i just can't get it to work.

The problem is very simple...after received a message the screen goes on, the leds start to blink...then when the screen goes off, leds turn off.

I thought the problem could be on my rom (XWLPM 4.0.4) or the BLN itself, but i installed Handcent SMS, to test, and everything works like a charm...

Again, i installed Zlango, and everything works great...installed Go Sms...BLN doesn't work...

Anybody knows anything about this issue? Anyone found a possible solution?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jack@83:
Same problem!! :crying:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
BLN works perfectly fine with gosms here.

The problem:

- because gosms turns the screen on when you receive message

The solution:

- disable screen on after you reduce message in gosms settings

How to do this:

-open gosms

-goto settings, advanced settings

-select notification

-disable screen on and unlock screen under screen settings

Problem solved

Note: Ensure, notification light is also enabled in gosms.

Good luck

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
As per the title, will I miss the Quad Core? Especially concerned about smoothness in the browser, for example scrolling when viewing flash elements is as if the flash element wasnt there on the One X.

Im considering the swap as I want a Nexus device for dev support and can have a bit of money left over for the next Nexus if I do this swap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephoneguyusa:
It will not be a regret! I was a fan of the build quality of the one x and its speed but the nexus with jb on it ownes the one x (in my opinion). Plus there is a port of HTC sense 4.0 if you are a fan of sense!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
Thanks for the reply mate. How does the battery life compare (screen on times)? And does the Nexus feel "cheap" this is one criticism i see levelled at it a lot. I have the option of the S3 but that does look ugly and cheap (too much chrome and too much shine as well as too much plastic.)

I will miss the One X's looks but I love the look of the Nexus, particularly on the front.

Could you give me a test of browser/flash performance? How is it on the Youtube website scrolling when the video is playing? Are button presses on the flash object (like pressing play/mute/pause) instant? I'm a heavy flash user (cricket/football/Sky Sports streaming) so this is important to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shockem:
Extremely smooth. Flash hasn't been updated for jb. However you can still use the one for ICS. I haven't used flash but everything else works great. The battery life does fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
Could someone test out http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ website on desktop mode and let me know scrolling performance/scrolling lag on the Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayiskon:
Tried the page u posted, no lag or stutters whatsoever. The galaxy nexus stock browser is one of the smoothest and quickest browsers out there, even back on ics days, no need to mention JB, everything just flies ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
Brilliant. Just trying to think of things I could throw at you lot here - I know what works smooth on the One X and what doesn't. For one thing CVG on desktop mode would have lag from when you put your finger on the screen to the actual scroll taking place.

PCgamer.com was also similarly troublesome on the One X.

What "Screen On" times can I expect with a Nexus? I get 3/4 hours on the One X
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PacerguyDon:
You'll get comparable screen on times. Most people get in the three to four hour range. Some less though, and I have seen upwards of five plus hours. A lot will depend on your setup and kernel of choice.

The One X is a nice phone, one that would be tempting to me, as I do like Htc's build quality.

The Nexus doesn't feel overly cheap to me or like to much plastic. I think that may be due to the Glass front and I run a cover so that kinds of changes the feel of the textured back to me.

I do really like the dev community and support that the Nexus receives. One of the reasons that it would be hard for me to leave the Nexus.

Good luck in your choice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayiskon:
Trust me, i owned htc and samsung phones, and since my htc desire days i stopped using stock browsers and dolphin was the main one on all phones that followed. after getting the gnex i was still skeptical about stock browsers, but it's really the best browser i've tried so far, adding to it's speed all the cool stuff like guick controls and inverted screen rendering, u just can't go wrong with it. Furthermore the jelly bean experience is far away from anything available on any other android device out there. I posted a youtube link a while ago about a review for JB on gnex , a part of the review concentrates on browser performance, i'll post the link here as soon as i get to my pc (don't feel like searching over my phone) :P

Edit: as for screen on times, it depends if u're planing to get the gsm or cdma (verizon/sprint) version. I have a gsm one and on ics i used to get continuosly over 5hrs screen on. On jb it dropped to ~ 4-4.5 hrs , i think Google Now is eating the battery, (giving me navigation and calculating traffic to home) even though i don't need it, and actually i'm still enjoying all these JB features so i guess i'll turn some of those uneeded gnow cards OFF soon, pretty sure it'll improve my battery life more :)

I've gotten the best battery life of any Android phone on this one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
Guys you're being ridiculously helpful and I'm seriously tempted to jack in the One X and get the Nexus tomorrow even!

That review you mentioned above would be great to see.

What JB ROM/Kernel combo would you recommend and could you point me in the direction of the thinnest case for the back of the phone?

I'd be on GSM in the UK BTW.

Does overclocking to the 4460's 1.5ghz massively impact battery life? And how effective is undervolting? I've read you can UV the CPU/GPU and Screen as well as another chip?

For the fella above that had the ONE X would you say the camera/screen is markedly better on the HTC or is it negligible? Screen more important than camera to me.

Also is this colour accuracy patch still in use with many Kernels? The ONE X screen is streets ahead in terms of colour IMO and this seems to certainly help? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1521195

Lastly just to reaffirm, scrolling performance with a flash video playing is instantaneous?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuffyPSP:
Achieved it yesterday. Well actually almost everyday. Stock jb with stock kernel. Only rooted deoxdexed, bigxie version. I don't use setcpu or anything. Gps and bluetooth on when needed. And since I don't use nfc, I turned it off and greatly improved the battery too. Auto sync are all on, auto-brightness n also plume updating every 30 minutes.

Btw, I use it alongside my one x too. The thing is, it's been 24 hours since I last touch my one x. Damn it that shows how much I love nexus and aosp! You won't regret it mate. I prefer using my nexus over one x in anything! Really tiring waiting for CM to come official for one x. Grrr...

How much difference is there between the screen and camera? Can you see pixels on the screen of the nexus being pentile or is it as pin sharp as the One X (which looks like a magazine print to be honest).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PacerguyDon:
I can't say on the Stock Browser with Ics, as I was using Chrome. But on JB with the stock browser, I just opened Youtube, and had no lag at all. Very smooth. I've been really impressed with the improvements to the Stock Browser in JB. I tried Chrome, and it was choppy. With the performance of the Stock Browser, I see no reason to use anything else now though.

What everyone else has said about not needing to overclock. Very true. I run at 1036 with no issues. I will push it up to 1500 if I want to run a bench test, but other than that, there really is no reason for me to OC.

The Gpu can be OC'd. I haven't noticed a lot of difference between 384 and 512. I don't play a lot of labor intense games though. Jelly Defense and Ski Safari are the only two games I have installed at the moment. Even the stock 307 setting works fine for these.

I have tried a few of the Kernels, but have been using Trinity exclusively now for the past few months both on Ics and now on Jb. It's all subjective to personal taste though. If you make the switch, there are many Kernels and roms to choose from, all with there pluses.
[Nexus 7 General] adamwsh:
Why is the phone so much more expensive than the tablet?
[Nexus 7 General] Ignite023:
Because carriers want you to pay a subsidized price and sign a contract.
[Nexus 7 General] adamwsh:
That is pretty much exactly what I was thinking. I figure that in order to get the phone to be distributed by the big carriers, Google probably had to agree to sell their own version at a high price.
[Nexus 7 General] jsm7483:
