[Bravo General] ccdsatt:
OK so its in Q3 an if I don't start saving now I won't be able to buy a new phone for my birthday or black friday and you know how it is with saving, when you have a goal its easier so other bravo users this is where I need your help especially those who get their phones from AT&T. The reason I say AT&T is because they use the same bands as my home networks, my family travels to state alot and more than likely I'll be moving to the States for Engineering once I finish high school so i'd like a phone with LTE.

As of right now I'm looking towards probably the HTC One X, Atrix HD, Xperia Ion, GS2 Skyrocket or the HTC Vivid; this list will probably change in between now and black friday but atleast I have an idea as to what is the max I want to spend ($450-$500). I know its my responsibility to find these things out but if you know that any of these is in anyway better than the other like how out all these phones motorola is said to have the worst camera or which has the best battery life, which is an EXTREMELY important issue as my bravo only gets 4/5 hours while streaming music, or which has the best antenna because right now my H coverage is like by road ,if I come off the main road and go about into an area with alot of buildings i drop to E while people on their Blackberrys & GS2s are getting H/H+ even in areas less than 1km from the tower or which has the best dev support or has 3G issues, those outside of US must know how I feel, before I found out about rooting and baseband switching I was like WTF no 3G even though the frequency is correct which I still don't understand.

More on the AT&T reasoning, do you have to get a plan even when you buy the phone at the no commitment price because I see that it says that I need a voice and data plan; also I've heard this both ways AT&T doesn't like to give out unlock codes and if you tell them you have to travel or something else they will. Why don't I just buy it from ebay or cellunlocker.net because paying for something even if its just a couple bucks is silly when you can get it free.

Lastly if you actually read this far I'd like to THANK YOU :good: for being an such AWESOME person and I HATE PLASTIC *i know what your saying hates plastic but has a samsung phone on list, if its good compromises, except in price, can be made*
[Bravo General] syllogyking:
htc one x = non-removable battery is a deal breaker for me

atrix hd = locked bootloader

xperia ion = nice phone aesthetics, camera, and display wise, but software updates slow compared to likes of samsung

gs2 skyrocket = not a bad phone at all, relatively timely updates, good build quality

htc vivid = no knowledge of, except that it's 4G. isn't it similar to the sensation?

Hi people

I've bought a Xperia ray then my new Xperia s. My question is why is the screen from the. Xperia ray better hd then the xperia s
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] m1st3r1:
heh? what do u mean better hd? xperia ray's resolution is 480 x 854 pixels, XS has 720p (1280x720)

but if u're talking about screen quality:

1. it depends on ur eyes, really objective.. :D

2. afaik, sxs has three kind of screens ( i have the yellow tint guidelines pdf (in Chinese) which shows the three different screens of SXS), see the picture:

3. my SXS's screen is a lot of better than GS3's and heck it's better than iphone4s :D, mine is the white version though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kennet89:
I have the white too but i find the xperia s les better screen than the ray
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Your opinions on screen quality are horribly wrong. By all numbers the screen on the S is better.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kennet89:
Maybe i have something wrong in settings
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kennet89:
Sorry you were right.my problem was that i bought a screen protector before buying the phone. But the protector lets you feel like the screen looks horrible.im planning om buying a zagg screen protector.any ideas?

I flashed the June 28 kernel & it bricked my N7. I'm unable to get back into recovery mode to flash a backup. Any advise?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veeman:
Plug your Nexus 7 into a computer and then press the power and both volume buttons at the same time. Then you can boot into recovery.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mayze23:
I tried that. I can get into fastboot no problem. I'm running pre released windows 8. Could that be the problem as to why I can't get into recovery?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] maped:
It's not a problem of the op kernel or win8 but know issue that some Nexus 7 unmount recovery. There's a specific thread for solve this....but in my case don't work :(

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus con Tapatalk 2
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Cryingmoose:
I also had an issue with the 28 June kernal. Wouldn't go past boot screen or load into recovery. Could still access fastboot though.

/remember that nandroids are your friends
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mayze23:
I was able to boot into recovery using the N7 toolkit. The problem then was I had to use the toolkit to force it to boot into android. I tried flashing Trinity's and Franco's kernel but it would not flash via TWRP or CWM.

Ended up having to flash the stock image to get my tablet working right. As per another post having a similar issue I would stay away from the June 28 kernel.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] stezo2k:
The older kernel also put my Nexus in a bootloop :(

Ah well better reflash
[Nexus 7 Android Development] RiNo808:
So does any of these kernels work or only put the n7 in boot loop? BTW what's the difference between the two?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] stezo2k:
ones newer than the other, by the looks of it both bootloop the device :/

really regretting not backing up before doing it

edit: I reflashed the boot.img (extracted it from my ROM) and all is good now. Gonna do a titanium backup just to make sure incase it's unstable
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mirrored:
Wow I really wish I had read this thread before flashing. Just bricked my device
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dgovil:
Hey guys,

I like to lock my screen orientation to portrait for mostly everything. Games and landscape apps override this which is fine.

The youtube app for some reason is stuck in portrait (it used to switch easily in CM9 on my old i9000m).

So I have to disable orientation lock for videos.

Is there anyway to force certain apps to disregard the orientation lock? I know CM9 has it, but I'm quite happy with the touchwiz features and don't want to switch.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REVERSiN:
Huh?

Can you pls be more detailed.....you are on GB or ICS roms and which exactly.... what did you try todo... help us help you :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
Is the kernel functional for your rom? No then change kernel.

Is it, then, abyss is safe do wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, reboot.

Still no fix, what rom are you on, and how did you install?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSlim79:
Sounds like you flashed abyss on an ics ROM and rebooted..

As mentioned already you need to provide more details so we can help...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thienthancongtu:
ahhhhhhhh

I dont kno what i did now

the menu button wont even work but i think im soft bricked

CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4

i can use the volume up and down button but cant select anything

and when i boot normally

there is a boot screen then shut down it keeps doin things like that
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REVERSiN:
First of all you are fine don't worry, get your phone goto recovery using volume up + menu + power button and now to select tap on screen abyss is a touch CWM recovery, and the bootloop is since your kernel isn't compatible with the installed ROM pls change it to the rom's kernel and if you don't know which is supported reflash ROM's file iam sure kernel is included there.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thienthancongtu:
yea

OMG ... very nice of u i didnt even kno what to do then

but all of the sudden i turn off and turn on again

and it boots right onto the kingdroid v3.0 without any problem now, so weird

and now i can see i have the kernel included in the kingdroid v3.0 package instead of abyss kernel

What has just happened???????????????/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REVERSiN:
Iam guessing you were booting after a full wipe? And just didn't wait for it and got panicked fast iam I right?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thienthancongtu:
yes

cuz iheard some weird noises from the battery so i thought... uhmmm thanks tho

Can i ask how can i get the CWM back they disappear
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REVERSiN:
What do you mean by getting can back?

Going to recovery is done by pressing volume up + menu + power button hold them together until the gt-n7000 label shows now let go of power button only and voila.

Else flash a kernel with CWM (almost any).

But rom allways got bootloop. I change compression to 0, didnt help. Stock framework have 9.5MB , and signed (with no changes, compressio 0) has 6.6MB. I allways remove resources.arsc from keep folder then continue. Any solution ? :/ i can't solve this problem, i rly dont touch anythink inside framework.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
System apks such as framework should be signed. Apk tool compiles unsigned apks. You have to sign it manually.

Im using clean framework from .62 rom. I only decompile and compile without change's and i allways get bootloop.

Maybe i should use older version apkmanager and replace it on apk multi tool ?

o change apktool to 1.4.3,1.4.5,1.4.9 = allways bootloop, allways diference size of file

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bkral93:
The last few nights, I have tried a few different JB Roms. All with the same results. My GNex has a full charge before I go to bed, I wake to my phone telling me to charge it 8 hours later. With NO wifi or network data on. This can't be normal.

The roms:

ASCENT 3.0

Jelly Belly 4.0

New Unofficial Cyanogen Release.

No extra apps installed. Purely stock.

Tonight, I'll try it in airplane mode, and see if my network coverage is what's draining the battery. But for the most part I'm never without a signal.

Any ideas or ways I can see if the battery is just bad?

Also, what would the current Verizon radios be? I believe mine are up to date, but I guess that could be an issue if it is indeed my network signal being dropped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peachpuff:
Im on the 07/27 fitsugly cm10 rom with r225 franco kernel and for some reason my battery life has gone through the roof, after 30 hours of being on the battery is still at 56%. Granted im not using it much now but still i've never seen this type of battery life before. Overnight the battery dropped maybe 4% at best, wifi is always on and its fetching emails.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bkral93:
I installed the newest version of the ROM. I was curios what the different GPU kernels were for. Is there one that Toro should use rather than the other? I think I installed the 512 version. Should I not have?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Minooch + franco.Kernel #223 (see attached files). I haven't used my phone much in past 24 hours, but battery life is awesome. I use latest bootloader and radio firmware, CPU is set on interactive governor, 1420-384MHz, max screen off CPU frequancy - 729MHz, 512MHz on GPU.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bkral93:
I think I tried that ROM before, not sure if its just for maguro. I have a Verizon toro.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blame2:
I've yet yo find a from that can beat stock.... Idk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peachpuff:
If you don't need the higher clocked gpu speeds then just stick with the 384mhz kernel.

Pretty much identical battery life im getting right now, battery monitor is saying im sipping 8mA of battery when idling.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bkral93:
Yeah, No MiNCO toro release. :|

Went with the ROM and latest Kernel, and I can't believe the battery life. Tonight will be the real test though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] damage98:
Try better battery stats... I am on gsm nexus.

I tried jelly belly, minco , paranoid android, and xenonHD plus bigxies stock. I've used Francisco Francos kernel on bigxies and that gave good battery life but the others all burned cpu and battery, specifically via Android.mediascanningservice. and maps.

Right now I am back to stock 4.1.1 rooted courtesy of rom toolkit and with better battery stats and cpu spy I have a cool phone.

One thing you should be aware of is if you have a lot of media on your phone the scanning service can take a long time to run and calm down. I I upgraded my bosses razr to ICS and his phone took all night to update I guess he has lots of music on it...

To increase battery life you can install titanium backup and freeze maps, and wallet when I not in use. You can install rescan media from the app store and trunk off media scanning service. Or just buy a bigger battery.

This is not a knock on the custom roms. The rom teams mentioned above they are all awesome and are the reason us crackflashers have so much fun. I have learned lots from this experience and have a better grasp on how my phone works due to the efforts of these devs. For now I am sticking with stock... I'm sure I'll be flashing again soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] butikofer08:
You can never judge a ROM on battery life within a day. Every ROM I flash gets bad battery on the first cycle and most the time even the second cycle. You really have to stick with a ROM/kernel combination for at least a few days to be able to judge battery life. It may just be a placebo effect but I use a battery calibration app each time I flash
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jauhari:
Do you have any sync Apps or Account that's awesome battery life
