I'm not saying the lg nexus is bad, I'm just more of a Samsung guy.

I read last night that after the big release Google will allow other manufacturers to produce nexus branded devices as long as they meet certain criteria.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobesabi:
Wasn't it Samsung & TMobile who made us mad 2 years ago when they held out releasing update (Froyo) to our Vibrant?

On comparing Optimus vs Samsung S III, S3 (T999) seems to have more features. Not sure if Optimus G will be same as Optimus prime or not

Yeah that was ****ty of them but not something to worry about on a nexus branded device as they always get updated. Besides I'm not going to stay stock for long most likely.

FWIW, I have read on several different places that the SGS3 will be $49 (after rebate and all that crap) on Black Friday from multiple carriers. I have one and the thing is rediculous in every sense of the word. I don't even use have of the stuff it has and the development is quite inpressive.

Currently testing a JB leak and it is very nice and extremely fast. Most of you know how much I detest Quadrant scores, but I cracked 6k yesterday for the first time ever without and GL sorcery;).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xenoism:
I'm thinking that my next device will be the Gnote2 ^^

However, if the GS3 is hitting $49 on Black Friday then damn, I won't be able to pass that up, I don't think!

The gnote 2 looks nice but a $49 gs3 is the way to go!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobesabi:
If it's $49, I can use the prepaid refund on that with all that horsepower. At the moment, the unlocked is ~ $580 for 16GB, 1G Ram.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugartibbs:
Im torn, 2 years coming up next month and theres so much going on here, the SGS3 is a beast, and a Nexus would be a change, and Id have to give a sappy goodbye in general, and everybody would say, 'Thank God" , Have to be a google, but too many rumours to make a 2 year decision.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Allow me to make the decision for you coming from someone who owned both the Galaxy Nexus and S3. Get a Nexus, it's simple as that.

Actually I will not get the this LG Nexus since its a step backward to me, due to: Not coming with default 32gb internal storage and non-removable battery. It's rumor to have 8gb and 16gb selection, even the Vibrant is better than that. But on the plus side, you can't beat Nexus software and development rate, even if you intend to install custom roms, Nexus devices has the best quality roms. With the S3 you will wish you get the newer updates as time goes on, with the heavy Touchwiz interface it countered the performance of the phone. Also the S3 really had poor built quality imo.

I'm guessing the the Nexus will be pentaband (huge plus) and Google will probably sell it little cheaper.

Or if you plan to stay with T-Mobile, get a subsidized T-Mobile S3, sell it, get a Nexus. With that said, if you ended up with an S3, its not a bad choice either. I think when the new Nexus come out the Galaxy Nexus will be even cheaper, then it'll be a great upgrade for many people. I still recommend the current Galaxy Nexus over any devices out there, unless camera quality and storage space is important. For me, I prefer a phone with sdcard.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobesabi:
"Thank God" it is an iNexus. :) We probably will get a tax bill from Apple later on.

If the next Nexus is similar to LG Optimus G, I probably get that since in relooking at the comparison again, the new LG has about same horsepower as SGS 3 but newer chip model, twice memory than SGS3, about 1/3 more extra battery juice, and also support 4G LTE which SGS3 did not mention anything about it in the comparison below.

Only thing I don't like is no ext microSD and no removable battery.

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4941&idPhone2=4804

New CNET rumor has it to be unveil and will be available on 10/29/2012.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobesabi:
I hope that is not true. If that is so...that would suckazz since no microSD either. Who does not not take tons of picture now a day?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
LG Optimus G has the same capacity, the manufacturer may claim it last longer for tasks, but its varies for usages. If you check the the international S3, the battery claim is higher. Also if the Optimus G is using LTE, with the same battery capacity I am sure it will die faster than the S3 using HSPA. With removable batteries you have the benefit of buying replacement or extended batteries. I would not attribute the Optimus G spec to the new Nexus yet until there are more reliable leaks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugartibbs:
And now we have the S3 mini released in Europe tomorrow, Quote.."we think there's a strong demand for a 4 inch screens in Europe, Has Seole surrendered this market to apple, I personally like the size and mobility of my Vibrant, I saw a note while shopping, and was damn, thats a baby lappy.The SGS 3 is ok, in size but are we that small a market. we are always last. Brand loyalty suffers.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobesabi:
Interesting the international version has more juices. Totally agreed on removable battery. That would be one of the drawback on this new rumored Nexus.

[LG Optimus 2x] jalal.mustafa:
Helloo..

can i install custom roms on my Optimos 2x SU660 which is made for p990/p999. is their any patch for my Su660 to install ROMs.

if not .. i ruquest to all Rom dev. to make a patch of SU660 . so SU660 user can install P990 Roms on SU660
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I asked aragorn7 if he could have a look at this thread. He is using P990 stuff on his SU660, I think he can answer your question the best.

Cheers.
[LG Optimus 2x] aragorn7:
@jalal.mustafa,

Yes, you can install p990 custom roms on su660. (warning: don't use p999 roms -- the hardware is too different with the su660).

Here's what I suggest you do:

1. Remove p990 assert (if it exists):

a) Edit the following inside the flashable rom zip file

/META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

b) Comment out the first line by adding "#" (without quotation marks), so that it looks like something like the following:

[COLOR="Red"]#[/COLOR]assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "p990" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p990");

c) You'll need to re-package the zip file. I use 7-zip in Windows or the default archive manager in Ubuntu.

2. Flash SU660-compatible kernel.

For example for ICS/CM9 roms, try wkpark's 3.0.8 kernel:

http://code.google.com/p/openstar2x/downloads/detail?name=boot-cm9-for-su660-3.0.8-120322.zip

Alternatively, you can use p990 kernels (e.g. Harsh's among others), provided that the custom roms you're flashing have soft key navigations.

Note, though, that rotation would be incorrect on the su660 with p990 kernels (e.g. rotate 90 degrees, and it will behave as rotate 270 degrees). I don't know of a good workaround -- I just turn off rotation when I use p990 kernels.

And of course, please apply necessary safety measures before trying out these steps (e.g. familiarize yourself with using CWR, nandroid backup etc.).

Let me know if you need further help. Good luck and happy flashing!

Hello,

I would appreciate your opinion on the high capacity battery that I found on Ebay.

Ultra-High Capacity G5/G7/BA S-410 Replacement Gold Battery - 2680mAh

Compatibily:

HTC Google Nexus One, HTC Desire Bravo G5/G7

MADE IN JAPAN

identical in size and shape of the original manufacturer's batteries!!!

When do you think?

Have you perhaps a better product for me?

Thank you in advance
[Desire Accessories] DNA_Uncut:
Fake, any battery above 2000 mah can't be like stock battery. Check Mugen 3200 mah. I have it. When on idle. I 'm getting 1 % down for an hr with mugen battery. Means 100 hrs standby with Edge\3G On ...

Mugen does ship battery to any part of the world at free of cost. So get it from them directly

http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com
[Desire Accessories] Neo.net:
Ok thanks ...

In fact I would buy a new battery because the one I have now started to cause problems at the charge and discharge.

Do you have any advice for me? or a replacement with more capacity without having to add a thicker shell?
[Desire Accessories] DNA_Uncut:
Mugen 1600mah for htc desire. 200 mah more than stock (1400 mah). You will 25% more power than stock htc battery. Same size as stock battery http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...e-htc-desire-vodafone-htc-desire-1600mah.html
[Desire Accessories] oxyg3n89:
if samsung do sell genuine s3 2100mah batteries for around 33$ and make profit from that, then how much is worth a piece of mugen 1600mah battery for desire?this time 44$ for mugen is like stealing from mans pocket isnt it?

any other place buy them cheaper? or similar quality thing?

I agree with you ...

I tested the batteries above and none are valid.

It is better to buy an original or a Mugen

Htc desire bravo Jellybean 2000mamp battery problem

Hello I have second hand desire bravo running jellybean, the battery is 2000miliamp but after a full charge and then I turn off phone, the next morning it's down to 84%. Is there any reason for this other than maybe the battery being faulty?

Is there some software that will solve this, I had read something about the kernel of the phone having some effect on this.

As it is a get about a day out of battery.
[Desire Accessories] dvsk69:
Thats normal if youre able to get a day of usage of your battery.
[Desire Accessories] Moonwave:
I bought a 2500mAh battery on eBay. Same size as stock, but it does not last much longer (~15% longer?) than the stock battery I had. I got the device lasting longer by installing the MildWild (based on Redux2) custom ROM. This ROM gives approximately an 80% increase of battery life (almost an additional day).
[Desire Accessories] dethrat:
Yeah and your stock battery will have been 2 years old so its no better than stock. Clearly not the 2500mah it claimed

Buy it from att. Then buy a different battery cover from eBay/amazon.

Do a search. They sell ones without gs3/att branding on it

Or scratch off the att logo with a coin.

Maybe a rogers phone from Canada could work, but not sure if it is enough to stop them from detecting your phone.

And for the other two replies I believe he doesn't want att to detect the phone on the network not cosmetic changes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
Just to clarify, he wants AT&T's database to not recognize the phone as an S3.

I don't believe buying a new battery cover would accomplish that...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] WA_Bob:
Probably not! I'm not even sure if that's possible - Unless the Korean or Japanese version had the AT&T LTE radio bands on-board already you'd have to do some serious hardware modifications to you phone. :eek:

I have an ATT LTE microsim. I think. Or, yesterday, I got a microSIM from ATT. It should be 4G enabled... right?

Nonetheless, I am not getting LTE... which I guess is okay. I really fail to see the point of using LTE on a mobile phone when you burn through your total monthly allotment in under 8 hours.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] WA_Bob:
If you received an AT&T micro SIM with your SGS3 then it is a 4G LTE enabled one. And it is a matter of personal preference as to whether LTE is worth it or not to you. For some folks, HSPA+ is perfectly fine and you could put a 3G micro SIM into your phone and have it work without LTE.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
The sim card does not determine the service. ATT will not give you any HSPA+ or LTE if you don't have that plan added to your phone. They can differentiate between the plans and devices. If you pay for the non smartphone data they will stick you on 3g only.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] synpax:
I got the microSIM in person, not with the phone. Do you think it's LTE capable?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Lets see we have discussion on both of the ones I have seen here. Sbrissen has the AOSP JB build going and Dark Night is doing a CM10 port. Sbrissen said he will post his when it is ready, he does have ones posted for other phones elsewhere. As far as someone I have never seen here doing a port and posting it somewhere else, you will have to ask him why he doesn't post it here.

One person already possibly hard bricked, we have responsible developers who do not post things that are not ready for testing or public consumption and thats why. I tried one of sbrissens builds and I download Darknights from androidcentral but I did not bother installing it.

So I got a att sim card for straight talk. I was wondering if I unlocked my phone and flashed the blaze radio and put in the tmo apns would I run on the tmo towers? I know you can get the tmo one but are they that much different?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] delacrow:
I am on T-Mobile and generally run blaze modem, but I also tested straight talk at&t sim for a while. Here are my few obvervations -

1. I think that only at&t towers were being used by straight talk, even with blaze modem. The signal strength was different for each sim. I found at&t coverage in my area better. You need straight talk apn though, having blaze modem would make no difference. So you would need to switch apns if you swap sims (assuming you have two sims).

2. On straight talk the signal was the same regardless of the flashed modem - at&t modem or T-Mobile blaze. And again att.mvno apn was absolutely necessary.

3. However, despite the same signal strength, the blaze modem drained the battery a lot faster as compared to stock at&t ics modem. Even on wifi.

If you have T-Mobile sim card you may find top download speeds with blaze modem a lot faster. However, straight talk connection is more stable. Stability is everything. I hope you have good at&t coverage in your area as I would stick with at&t ics modem. In fact that is the best option, unless you also have a T-Mobile sim and plan to swap it sometimes. But even if you have both, please note the battery drain caused by blaze modem - may not be worth it.
