[Galaxy S I9000 General] divibyzero:
Biggest TW4 bug that drove me crazy in XXKQE was that apps and icos sorted spontaneously every time i rebooted phone, and even sometimes when phone was running. Additionaly icons in dock bar used to return to defaults (I change stock messaging app to other one) very often. And lockscreen wallpaper couldn't be set to "none". That's all I've noticed :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pezmet:
You can workaround both issues:

1) For TW4 find the apk under settings select it and delete data. all icons form app will be sorted alfabetical and desktop apps will be set to the default ones. Then set desktop as you wish and reboot to recovery and fix permisions. The apps will be saved at this.

2)For no lock screen wallpaper select no wallpaper from display setting then boot to recovery and fix permisions.

Remeber:

You must repeat (1) for TW4 for every new app you install and every new app shortcut to desktop you make.

You must repeat (2) for every time you set a lockscreen wallpaper and then you want to select no wallpaper again.

Best of luck

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jejb:
I've searched the forums for this, but don't see an exact match. Sorry if I missed a duplicate thread, and a link to it would suffice as an answer.

I am nearing the end of my 2 year contract for my Sprint Evo 4G. I think they are referred to as OG Evo's here for some reason? OG = Original? Anyway, it's been a GREAT phone. Wife got one at the same time. I rooted both of them, installed Sprint Lovers Rom and have basically done nothing else since except refuse updates and install/uninstall apps. I rooted it to be able to do wifi tether, which I depend on at times.

The only real reason I'm thinking of getting the 4G LTE version is the camera. The camera on the Evo 4G just flat sucks. My only complaint on the phone, but a big one as I am outdoors a lot, like to take pictures a lot, and would like to get away from carrying a point and shoot in addition to my phone. I've played with settings until I'm blue in the face, and get the occasional decent picture, but it's just not good. I want a very good camera and it seems this phone has one, by all official reviews I've seen on it.

But I also read on the 4G LTE forums a lot of reports of more dropped calls, connectivity and slow data issues compared to other phones like the Evo 3D. Where I live, all we have is 3G. I've done some speednet tests on it and get in the area of 1.25mb down, .30mb up currently. That works for what I need. We will likely not see LTE anytime soon, if ever, here at the house (in the Ozark Mts of Arkansas).

Am I likely to see performance impacts if I go to the 4G LTE? If so, has anyone done comparisons to see how much is lost? I really, really, really want a better camera, but not if it's going to make calls and/or tethering worse.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BonkyMoon:
I went from an original Evo to the LTE and I have not noticed any change in connectivity or call signal quality. I do have both wimax and LTE in my area and my LTE speeds are roughly double what I was getting with wimax. My 3G speeds are identical between the two devices. The camera is indeed awesome; there is virtually no shutter lag which is a miracle for a cameraphone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vel7wil:
No LTE in my area as well but between wifi and decent 3g I'm enjoying the faster speed of the LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] D_Snipe_:
That's spot on for my wife and I who both switched from the OG to the LTE, and the LTE is only going to spread :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bntran02:
It just so happens that I have both my OG Evo and new LTE right here in front of me.

In general, I have noticed the reception of the LTEvo is marginally worse (0 to 5 dB worse) which is not significant and will probably not be noticable.

Wifi and GPS appear equally superb. No complains at all.

The camera is definitely better overall but that should be a given. Daylight pictures are excellent but indoor lowlight picture are very subject to motion blur. It is fairly difficult to get a picture to come out perfectly crisp with low light. Installing a ROM with an HD Camera mod definitely helps too. I've attached several pictures. A couple to demonstrate the challenges of low lighting and a couple with good outdoor lighting. Could I have taken a better low light picture? Sure I can and I definitely retook the pictures that turned out bad but that's an extra shot and extra time wasted.

Good luck!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] michael.stollaire:
I had an OG Evo myself, and it was a smooth transition from it to the LTEVO. I did have connectivity issues and WiFi issues, but that was addressed by the latest OTA, which was baked into several ROMs with r00t access.

The big delta for me between the OG Evo and LTEVO, was the hardware platform with better CPU, RAM and sdcard specs. On the software side, it came preloaded with ICS and JB is on the way, so there's no comparison.

In the camera department, yes, I hated the OG Evo camera, even at the 8 MP benchmark. However, even stock, the LTEVO camera destroys the OG Evo in the camera department and there are mods available here to enhance it, which I run personally on my daily driver handset.

Last but not least, the OG Evo necessitated carrying extra charged batteries with you, and chargers themselves, since the OG Evo was an energy hog. The LTEVO is sooooo much better in this department, and I've had runs that lasted well over 24 hours without a charge.

Convinced yet? ;)

HTH!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
i came from the og evo to the LTE, both rooted with s-off. and my data seems faster on the LTE. as far as dropped calls i can probably count on one hand how many times that happened between both phones.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wrxlvr:
I suspect you'll be very interested in a thread I created. Took a pic with the Evo 4G, and then one with the LTE.

It's pretty obvious that the LTE has a MUCH better camera.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
What do you mean by "broken?" Do you mean that you can only use the USB connector for charging?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rush420:
No, it's broken it won't charge or connect to the computer it was broken when I bought it if I play with the cord it says it's charging icon pops up but you can see it drop while it's plugged in that tells me that it's broken i may get it fixed one day but until then I just mess around with it its still a decent phone to play with + I don't have my computer either its in the shop being repaired.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pisherthefisher:
Maybe your USB connector is broken?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
LOL. He knows it's broken. He's asking if there is a way to root without USB.

OP

There is no way that I know of to root without a USB connection. Sorry man. I bet you could have a decent repair shop replace it for under 50 bucks though.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rush420:
I was reading an found you could root froyo can't find the link though in xda app supposedly you modify recovery and flash kernel for froyo but I can't figure it out does any know what I'm asking hope I'm making sense

Your still gonna need the USB working tough. To modify recovery you need either ADB or ROOT. So like I said not gonna happen. Sorry
[Asus Transformer TF700] crystalstylez:
Overall I think this case is very solid. It's snug and grips the tablet great. Does not have the cheap feel or smell at all. I would recommend this case to anyone looking fir something strong.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008IEGT28/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
[Asus Transformer TF700] Chief Geek:
Looks identical to the rooCase I use. If it's a matter of "same product, same factory, different label" then you'll love this case. Mine was initially very snug, especially the top closure, but has since broken in to be a perfect fit. Thanks for the review and photos.
[Asus Transformer TF700] crystalstylez:
Yeah it does look similar. The only difference in mine is the elastic at the top of the door to use when holding it in hand to keep it folded back. It still has the hand grip also like the Moko. Overall it feels premium though
[Asus Transformer TF700] Beknatok:
Thank you for sharing this!

Question, you ordered via Amazon, yes? Can you tell me when you placed your order?

I ask, because I ordered the same case, straight from yourpoetic.com, several weeks ago. They e-mailed me back and told me the product would not be available until August 6th. So I'm rather irate to see that orders via Amazon/Exact-Deal are being fulfilled, whereas a DIRECT order has been ignored.
[Asus Transformer TF700] crystalstylez:
I ordered from Amazon on 7/30/12. I am an Amazon Prime member and I got it overnight for 3.99 shipping (free 2day). That would be kind of screwed up if they did that. I wonder if it's actually Poetic selling it on Amazon or a vendor.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mertmag:
Poetic Case

I purchased mine from their web site. Now the site is down, they have my money and I have gotten no response from them.:eek:
[Asus Transformer TF700] lardo5150:
I am assuming this does not rotate?
[Asus Transformer TF700] cjhod1:
Now the hard part is getting a vendor who is willing to ship the item to me in Aus...

Thanks for the review.
[Asus Transformer TF700] loudbliss:
Just ordered this case on Amazon, should have it in my hands on Saturday. Will update on my impressions as soon as I get it.

EDIT:

I finally got my case and my Infinity and the case is perfect.

FIT: Perfect. Not a space loose or anything too tight, it fits how you'd thing it should and the tablet feels secure on it.

BUILD: Excellent. The external material which is sort of a pebble leather feels strong and looks high-end. The micro-fiber interior feels soft and serves as good grip. It won't slip. The handstrap comes handy for portrait mode and you really miss one for landscape mode. The only thing with the handstrap is that you'd thing is going to loosen in the future and lose some of it's tighness.

On the backside of the cover you see the line that's created when you use the cover as a stand. While looking at the pictures I thought this looked cheap which it doesn't in person.

LOOKS: It looks professional, not a thing to envy other cases. If you're afraid how it's going to look in business environments, don't be, it looks very professional.

PORTS: All ports have their openings and none of them are blocked, including the charger and the speakers.

STANDS: Has two different stand slot for different viewing agles, it works perfect, not much to say there. In order to use it you have to remove the two lower hooks, which is quite easy, and securing the tablet back on them is also quite simple. As for now it doesn't feel like those two hooks will loosen easily which I was afraid of.

BULKINESS: It's not bulky, actually quite slim. It has some padding to protect the tablet, not too much to make it feel too bulky or two little so it feels unprotected.

It also has some sort of hook that clips both sides of the cover when is closed which comes handy as well as a wrap for securing both sides when you close or fold it so it's never going to open by itself.

Hope this helps.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Beknatok:
I e-mailed info@yourpoetic.com, and someone named Alex replied. I included a copy & paste of my e-mail receipt, and a half hour later, he shipped my case out.

Worth a try?
[Asus Transformer TF700] cjhod1:
Interesting, I've emailed them a few times about shipping to Aus, and it seems to have fallen on deaf ears each time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
I emailed yesterday and Alex replied and told me that the case was a pre-order item and available on 6th August. I then noticed Amazon UK had it in stock so I asked Alex to cancel my order.
[Asus Transformer TF700] blickley:
I had originally ordered from Poetic as well, but cancelled and got one overnight from Amazon Prime. I had one for my TF101, and this one is even better. Love the addition of the hand strap and the the way it stays propped up a bit for typing when folding the lid back is pretty good. I would say that works better than the third groove that previous models had for typing because it would always slip out. I couldnt figure out what the thin elastic strap was for at first, but I know assume it is for holding the lid in place when folded back and using the hand strap (or just holding it). I found that I can wrap that elastic band around the corners of the device and the latch cover in the middle. That works well, I just hope the cover doesn't soften up too much from securing it tight like that and have it lose the angle of typing by folding it back without the band.

I also out a Skinomi carbon fiber backing on the TF700 and it still seems to fit in the case just fine. I now have the case fir when I am on the go, and scratch protection when I have it out of the case at home. I have been carefully putting it in and out if the case so the carbon fiber backing doesnt peel on the corners. I am hoping that I am just being overly cautious for now. If it ends up peeling, I'll probably just snip the tiny pieces of the backing that wrap the corner.

So far the combination of the Skinomi ans the Poetic folio are awesome.
[Asus Transformer TF700] thephreak99:
Nice.

Btw, can you hook us up with some cheap airline tickets? ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
I'm getting the Skinomi Brushed Steel and the Poetic case, so looking forward to both.
[Asus Transformer TF700] blickley:
Just a head's up, I did have to cut the tiny pieces off that wrap around the corners on the bottom. They are pretty skinny and going in and out of the case ended up peeling those off. It leaves the bottom two corners exposed, but I'm not really worried about that, I am more concerned about the scratches across the back when laying it down unprotected. I also DO have to press it in rather hard to get it to stay in the bottom corners of the case (not sure if that is because of the case or the skin), but I suspect it will break in quickly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
Did you heat them with a hair drier when fitting?
[Asus Transformer TF700] blickley:
I did, which made everything stick very well (including those corner pieces), but the pressure/rubbing of the case's corner brackets pretty quickly messed them up. Those corner brackets are pretty tight (at least for me). I stuck them back on with heat again a few times, but eventually realized I was better without them. I left the top corners on, it was the bottom corners.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
I got mine today and it fits really well. Just curious, what is the grey elasticy bit for?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Einride:
I did the same when I couldn't pay with a credit card on their website (some issues with cardholder address when using a foreign address or something). Sent them an email and I got an invoice via Paypal instead, and received the case earlier than expected. I was told that it wouldn't be in stock until August 6th, but I guess they got some stock before that at least. I received it on August 3rd and it would've taken a couple of days of shipping getting it to Norway as well.

I've got a couple of photos of the case (linked them in the general case thread as well) up here:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadspider187:
I'm really not looking for attitude toward me here. I'm just asking an honest question. Perhaps I was too broad and came across as someone who shouldn't be crawling these forums. Let me clarify my question; Is everything listed below pretty much it then? I guess what I'm really asking is if the Lowrider package basically takes the upstream Google apps package(s) and just tweaks the code for these fixes, or if he's grabbing it from a fork of the original packages and bundling them together.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Yes... he takes the stock packages and adds in things that he wants and takes out things he doesn't... if you would've read the lowrider thread it is all explained in there.... happy reading...

Chatting applications are becoming so trendy these days. Many use Whatsapp, BBM, ChatOn, Nimbuzz. Heard the launch of WeChat.

This a quite a big competition to Whatsapp as its has more features which are amazing and those are animated! Thats awesome. But in India, there are more Whatsapp users compared to WeChat. But I think WeChat can take over Whatsapp users in India as its more easy with amazing features. What are your views?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] TheWhiteWolf:
If you have not idea for the first or the second...install both and the doubt disappears :P

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Ohamn:
Here in Sweden both WhatsApp and Viber are quite big. I prefer WhatsApp over Viber, but that's just my opinion.

With Viber you can choose to chat or talk to the other person via the phone. That possibility is not available in WhatsApp yet.

Hello XDA.

I am a grt fan of the forum first of all thanks to all who contributed here.

I had a Sony Ericsson W8 E16i, its was a piece of Gem with the nAa CM9 ICS on it thanks to all the guides, Kernels, ROMs and Mods that made my phone smooth and Agile.

Now i have my new Xperia Arc S LT18i which is SIM unlocked and i have just unlocked the boot loader. Now i want to root my phone. I have searched all the threads about rooting, which were mostly of Easyroot Kit, Doom lord's Method of Rooting. I have tried almost all the methods, but i am still unable to root my phone. In one of the threads it was advised to downgrade from 4.0.2.B.0.62 to 4.0.2.A.0.62 via flashing it with flash tool. I did it and tried to root, still no luck. Can any body please help me rooting my device?

Current settings on my phone.

Android 2.3.4

Build No - 4.0.2.A.0.62
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
There is no such firmware as 4.0.2.B.0.62. It doesn't exist at all.

You have to downgrade from 4.0.2.A.0.62 to 4.0.2.A.0.58 or older(.58 or smaller).

Also, if you have unlocked bootloader, you can just install custom kernel, which already includes autoroot, so if you install that kernel, ROM automatically gets rooted.
