Hey,

The screen quality of my GNex is absolutely disgusting. I have seen alot about this being a common issue and people returning them. I have contacted Samsung and the retailer that I purchased the phone from and they say, "That looks like water damage, Not our problem.". Are they obligated to repair or exchange it? It is annoying me that I have a 720P screen but it looks so bad :\ Also is there anyone that has had Samsung say the same thing too them? Thanks

Has anyone who bought recently a HOX got one with serial SH26... SH27... or HT26... HT27... I want to get one to replace my galaxy nexus but i live in latinamerica and would buy it from Amazon and they offer NO warranty besides sending the phone back would be near impossible , i cant deal with wifi , flex, yellow spots issues , i only have one chance to get a good phone so i plan to demand for a recently manufactured phone with HT/SH26-27 serials after the HTC wifi defect announcement , has any of you bought a HOX recently from amazon or anywhere, which serial number did you get?

Hi All,

I was just curious what weather app / weather widget do you guys and gals recommend?

I currently use TWN (The Weather Network) app and widget but just recently found out that it keeps the phone awake for a long period of time. Today alone I have had my phone on for 4 hours and it has kept it awake for 45mins of that time. That's not acceptable to me. Please let me know what options you guys use as I will be looking for alternative apps. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] talltexan:
I snagged the weather bug elite free on amazon whenever they did the free app a day.

[HTC Rezound] kidwolf908:
Hey all,

So I'm still running the stock GB that the Rezound came with (rooted and unlocked), but I've recently come across some hardware issues that make me want to try a new ROM and see if that resolves it (prox sensor intermittently stops working).

I'm just wondering though: do any of our ICS roms use hardware acceleration the way the G'Nex uses HW Accel?

My roommate has a G'Nex and the stock launcher is just so darn buttery smooth even with a live wallpaper. Compared to my Rezound using GO Launcher and a static wallpaper which looks like a slideshow. Live wallpapers absolutely wreck it.

Given that the GPU in the Rezouns is superior to the GPU in the G'Nex, I was just hoping that maybe we would finally have hardware acceleration in all aspects of the OS.

Is this the case? If not, what is holding it up?
[HTC Rezound] kidwolf908:
I think I may have answered my own question with a "Yes, as long as you use a launcher that support HW Accel like Nova or Apex."

Is this correct or does it still not function on the Rez?
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Yeah we have hw accel. If u use the sense launcher it's like butter. Apex is a little less smooth than the stock launcher on my gnex as well
[HTC Rezound] zZDave_Stud:
oops.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Yeah when I used GO Launcher on GB, it was laggy.

Apex on ICS is pretty smooth.

Sense is the smoothest, but I don't like Sense.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I'm using ADW EX on ICS, and I like it a lot. I've been using ADW for ages now. I've tried all the others but I keep going back to ADW EX for some reason..
[HTC Rezound] tm1618:
Go launcher on ics is smooth as silk
[HTC Rezound] scy1192:
Rezound ICS *is* hardware accelerated, but neither Apex nor Nova are very smooth for some reason. Sense with the Ultrasmooth mod is stutter-free, though.
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Apex just doesn't run very smooth in my rezounds for some reason. I like it enough to use it anyway, but it's definitely a little choppy.

I'm not sure what the difference is, but apex runs absolutely perfect in my Galaxy Slll. The difference is night and day which is odd since the hardware is so similar other than the 2 gigs of memory.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
The SIII's hardware is MUCH better.

It's CPU uses the A15 architecture whereas the Rezound S3 CPU is A9 based.

This means:

Up to 40-50% better performance at same clock speed

Dual channel memory

I think it has a much better GPU as well.

Also, Samsung probably made less modifications to AOSP that would slow it down.

Once we get AOSP, we will probably get better UI performance.

Sent from my viperRez
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
The Snapdragon S3 CPU is A8 based with some improvements. So it's like A8.5, not A9
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Oh that's why the OMAP in the nexus beats the S3.

(For anyone else reading that's the Qualcomm S3 CPU, not to be confused with Galaxy SIII.)

Sent from my viperRez
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Yep but the Rezound has a better GPU
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Yeah but the Nexus scores better on most benchmarks because they all max out 2d graphics, so the Rezound loses it's edge in those benchmarks. (Quadrant and Antutu).

Sent from my viperRez
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
The nexus also has MUCH faster IO read/write speeds. It's not even funny how much higher the nexus is
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
Database IO? Or just the SD card.

I improved my Antutu score by about 100 by getting a really fast SD card.

(ADATA 32GB Class 10)

It reads 20MB/s and writes 18.

Only for sequential though.

Random write is painfully slow though. Poor IOPS. Good thing Antutu only tests sequential. :D

That's my biggest gripe with the gnex and nexus 7. No SD. And if I was one of the few with a 64 GB Sd card...

Sent from my viperRez
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Idk I test with quadrant v2
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
In Antutu, it tests the internal storage that the system is on and the SD card.

Can't improve database scores, but $30 improved my SD card score by 100.

Hi guys,

I'm a complete noob on here and only really registered to ask this question. I'm selling my Desire HD in order to fund for the Samsung Galaxy S3.

I've rooted my HD and I want to get it back to stock when it first comes in the box

Can somebody please walk me through how to do this?

Also, it would be incredibly helpful if someone posted instructions for Mac.

Please do not abbreviate anything.

Thanks in advance!

Is theirs a way to change or mod the screen lock sound, bcuz that click sound is stupid and the vol is too low :banghead::mad: .. someone help "only the sound that makes when you lock the cel" Im not trying to complicate anyones lifes... lol

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reconkiller:
I could just drop a sound file there and the magic is done?:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BigBison420:
I finally figured out how to do this too LOL!

go to system --> media --UI (MAKE SURE YOU MOUNT /SYSTEM BEFORE MODIFYING ANYTHING)

YOu have Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg - You need to convert a mp3 or whatever to OGG 96kbps or less 44,100 mhz -- Then RENAME original LOCK/UNLOCK to LOCK.ogg.bak and Unlock.ogg.bak (so you can restore whever you want). Now paste the new OGG lock/unlock in there and make sure the FILENAME IS EXACTLY THE SAME - CASE SENSETIVE TOO! FIX permissions, wipe dalvik/caches in recovery reboot. Works perfectly for me.

Cheers!

NOT WORKING. I have done exactly as you have said except I only wanna change the unlock sound. I'm on an sm-n910t(tmo note 4) I have used 4 different root file writers. Using all of the EXACT steps you have posted here and nothing. I can't even get my old unlock sound back. One file explorer shows the file but it has paper beside it. And the other file explorer has no file at all. I have changed the permissions. I have even changed the owner and group name to the exact same root as the other files. The rw is on the name is the same but I get nothing. I've wiped dalvik and cache before each attempt to make the change and nothing. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jss2:
My question is when I should or should not "format /system".

I'm currently running BAMF You Jelly Huh v2.1, and it's the first and only JB ROM that I've flashed. I flashed it with CWM 6.0.0.5 (not the touch version), although now I have CWM 6.0.1.0 (again, not the touch version). Previously, I was running BAMF Paradigm v1.3 (based on 4.0.4).

When I flashed BAMF You Jelly Huh v2.1, I did the same thing I always did when flashing ICS based ROMs:

Wipe data / factory reset

Wipe cache

Advanced > wipe dalvik cache

Then flash the new ROM, and flash gapps.

Everything on BAMF You Jelly Huh v2.1 is working great, and I'm not experiencing any problems (it always boots up quickly and everything works).

But from what I've read about flashing some other JB ROMs, sometimes people are recommending to also do a "format /system" (under the mounts & storage menu).

Seeing as I didn't do that, but not having any problems, I'm curious when I should or should not be formatting /system.

Thanks in advance.

most roms include a script to wipe system before install... however some do not.

it cant hurt to format /system

did that v30.05 doesnt work.. went back to stock everything and still nothing could it be hardware? i mean it was working perfectly fine up until 2or wks ago.. funny thing is though i flased v30.08 from anryls kernels through FlashIMAGE GUI and after it booted up..wifi turned on no problem and showed all wifi networks in the area..then it stopped.. and its weird when i flash a new rom and it asks for wifi connection is shows wifi networks in the area..

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwidjaya:
Hi guys,

Just want to bring a question here, so what do you guys think about the stock 'PhoneTablet' UI vs Pure Tablet UI in nexus 7?

What do you think are the advantages or disadvantages?

I personally quite like the stock UI and with how the hybrid UI looks like. The only thing that i'm missing is the bottom right notifications and settings bar in the tablet UI.

So how about you guys?:D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark lord me:
I actually like it as i have used 7' honeycomb and ICS tablets and it always seems squished down at the bottom with the buttons and notifications, it doesn't feel squished at all on the N7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robdroyd:
I would prefer landscape mode- because most of my apps run in landscape- so I wouldn't have to rotate the tablet after launching, but I'll wait it out till Google officially offers a rotation option for the home screen- hopefully in an OTA update.

I really like the pull-down notification screen in JB over the old pop-up box in ICS, etc..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwidjaya:
Agree. I guess that is one of the reason why Google decided to use different UI on Nexus 7 than on previous uniform tablet UI. And i found the placement of the three bottom buttons in the center instead on the left corner was quite convenient too. It makes the bottom bar much cleaner and easy to reach with either thumb.

1) Update the desired app through the web-based Play Store.

2) Then uninstall it from within the Play Store on the device.

3) TADAAAAA you'll see the app in the apps menu.

4) Update it again from the device.

And you can download your movie from https://play.google.com/movies by having a download manager like IDM which grabs video. The file size is about 1.14 GB.

I think it is a problem with your touch screen hardware and not the android software. That being said, unless someone else has had the problem, no one can really help you..
