Bikrame is ABSOLUTELY right bro, also take it from me, I used to be a DIE HARD HTC fan, however, after countless years and devices later I just got sick and tired of waiting for them (HTC) to get their **** together. One can only take so much disappointment before they lose all hope and walk away. I've owned only the latest and greatest of HTC phones on the market, and it was only a matter of inevitable time before the random reboots, crashes and frozen screens come into play, you just get fed up of having to constantly take out the battery to fix your phone... SAMSUNG definitely gets the everyday needs of real world use. Love my SGS3 !!!

Just take a quick look at the link below if you're still not convinced bro... In the end, the choice is totally yours to make... We here at XDA just try to help and inform each other the way family would. Best if luck though bud.

Not to my eyes. I prefer the samoled hd screen over the slcd2 any day. But maybe my eyes are messed up....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dmarco:
Super AMOLED HD

You’ve probably heard lots of press regarding this display as it’s been the frontman for Galaxy S phones for quite some time now. One of the best features about these display panels is that their black levels are*unparalleled–that is to say that when displaying black, the screen is practically off. This results in much richer detail in images (it’s black level, not white level that increases this quality). Combined with very high brightness and great viewing angles, the result is excellent contrast ratio which makes Super AMOLED displays perform valiantly in the outdoors. You may also hear people describe Super AMOLED colors being “vibrant” and/or “punchy,” which is also due to this great contrast ratio.There are some drawbacks however to this display tech. Due to the nature of how the colors are delivered, Super AMOLED tend to be blue/greenish in color repdouction, which can be unwanted for those preferring neutral color balance. In addition, although the display consumes little power when displaying black, web browsing–which predominantly uses a white background–saps battery life disproportionately quickly. Finally, the display of the Galaxy S III uses a PenTile grid, which decreases*the*actual number of subpixels used on the display (and thus the pixel density)–this is noticeable at high*magnifications, but for most users will go unnoticed.

Super LCD 2

Super LCD 2 is a great all around screen as well. Although it doesn’t have killer black levels or astounding brightness, it has great white balance and accurate color reproduction as well as a true RGB subpixel layout which renders the finest bit of detail. In Chris Ziegler’s review of the One X, he notes that the Super LCD 2 display “[has]*got a near-perfect 180 degree viewing angle and perhaps the most accurate color reproduction and color temperature available…” and furthermore, “At 720p, it falls well into ‘retina’ territory where the individual pixels become invisible to the naked eye.”ConclusionIf the Galaxy S III’s display was a Super AMOLED HD Plus with an RGB stripe display, this debate would simply be a matter of whether you prefer color accuracy or vibrancy of the display, with which the argument could be made that while important for computers, color accuracy is not [as] important on a phone and thus the Super AMOLED’s colors are more*aesthetically*favorable. However taking the PenTile arrangement into account, the rest of the factors can seem to be a moot point to many buyers, especially when they see images like this:

The truth is, unless you have microscopic vision or are purposely looking for image artifacts, there is no way you are going to notice a difference on the screen.

After all of that, it boils down to a matter of personal preference:)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
I actually do notice the difference though. Samoled hd has deeper blacks and whiter whites than the slCD2. So in the contrast category, Samsung wins imo. Although color reproduction, the slcd 2 had more natural tones.

Right now I obviously have a sgs 4g T959V I have it rooted using team acid.

Firmware: 2.3.6

kernal: 2.6.35.7-sms--kj6-v0-.2.0-bml+

Build Number:gingerbread.vuvkj6

I have no clue as to what happened, but I keep getting these two pop ups:

com.android.phone has stopped unexpectdly

Logprovider has stopped unexpectedly

As far as I know, I have the correct drivers installed on my computer, but my computer doesn't see it, and the phone does not ask me what I want to do. I tried to get it in to recovery mode and download mode to no luck. I did do a factory reset, and attempted to clear the cache and everything else I could clear, and this is what I got.

Wiping cache...

Formatting cache.

E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11

Wiping data...

E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10

successfully appliedd multi-csc.

And it also seems that I can't properly get in to CWM.

Any insight on this? or can someone point me in to the right direction? Thank you much for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
OK I can help you, but TEAM ACID are a group of 7 members. It is not a mod. You rooted using the team build of the kernel.

FIrst Plug USB cable into PC, then power off phone. Hold volume buttons, and then plug phone into it while holding volumes. If you did it right, you are in some sort of usable download mode unless you are completely screwed. After pluging it in press the volume up botton just to be sure that it isn't asking for confirmation.

Step 1 Download THIS

This is the stock KJ6 Gingerbread firmware

WHEN YOU EXTRACT IT, IT MAY ASK FOR A PASSWORD. Enter sampro.pl

Step 2 "Assuming you are on windows" Go Here, and download the appropriate drivers for either a 64 bit or 32 bit system. If you don't know, right click on "computer" or "my computer" in the start menu and if it sasy x86, you are 32 bit, if it says x64, then you are 64 bit.

or,

Step 2 "Mac" Download this PIT FILE

then download this HEIMDALL

-install heimdall

-open heimdall

-go to "Flash"

-browse for pit

-select sgs4g.pit which you just downloaded

-wait for further instructions

STEP 3 "windows"

Go download THIS

-open odin, now, in the huge file you extracted with a password, locate the biggest of all the files should be about 200+ mb.

it is a .tar. Hold on to it.

-in the pda section of ODIN, browse for the big tar file and put it in there.

-flash

-after a long process, it should reboot into a blue recovery mode, and wait for it to finish, then it should reboot.

or

MAC

-find the biggest tar file in the big rar you downloaded.

-it should be about 200+ mb

-extract this.

-you should find a bunch of files

-download THIS , this is boot.bin, your primary bootloader

-go to heimdall where you left it

-click "repartition" under pit

-click "Add"

-select IBL+PBL

-browse for the boot.bin you just downloaded

-click "Add"

-select "SBL"

-browse for sbl.bin in the extracted tar location

-click "Add"

-select "Cache"

-browse for cache.rfs

-click "Add"

-select "Modem"

-choose Modem.bin

-click Add"

-select Datafs

-download This and add it(this should be Data.rfs)

-click Add"

-select Factoryfs

-browse for factoryfs.rfs

-click add

-select kernel

-browse for zImage

-click add

-select Param

-browse for Param.lfs

click flash (yes, there will be some unused options)

device will reboot to a blue recovery, after it is done, it will reboot.

for rooting it, find sms kernel in the dev thread and flash.

I think it would be safer for him to follow this guide. Because you talk about odin and heimdall and Im experienced and was confused.

Thanks to both of you, but I am starting to think my phone is screwed....

is there a way to install CWM on a sgs4g from a sd card?

Ok so its not totally screwed. I got the force close screens to quit, until i reboot.. once those quit.. i can call out, but it shows up as restricted, so its some progress. Still can't get my computer to see the phone though.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andro X:
Get one of those dead pixel checking apps or use a all white screen and check for dead or stuck pixels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Amowagou:
I wouldn't check for dead pixels unless you're guaranteed 0 dead pixel.

Normally you wouldn't notice a few dead spots on the screen, but once you know where they are, they will become very noticeable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andro X:
I had a stuck blue pixel on my first replacement right in the upper center of the display. It was instantly visible on a white background.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enik_fox:
Yea any dead pixels and its going right back

+1 for SwiftKey. I got it free from the amazon market one day, and it has been the absolute best keyboard for me since. I would say well worth the couple of bucks it actually costs.

Perfect Keyboard gets a close second, with Go Keyboard bringing up third due to the insane amount of customization you can do to it.

I need to change it because I am using thevphone unlocked in south Africa and there is no 4g available but to my understanding they are testing 4g so my phone is getting stuck in 4g even though I can't use it.

My samsung GT S6102(galaxy y duos) is rooted and while modifying build.prop , my phone ended up getting into a boot loop. I have a backup of the original build.prop file but am unable to restore it. I am able to enter into recovery mode. Will i be able to install a custom ROM on my phone even though it is getting boot loops? or is there any way to fix the boot loops?
[General Questions and Answers] Sot0:
Yes you should be able to install a custom Rom if you have CWM installed and i think you could try to push your Build.prop Backup to your phone using ADB but i dont exactly know how to do that ;)
[General Questions and Answers] sufian88:
@OP, if it's rooted then definitely. My HTC Explorer once stuck into boot loop too, I flashed with JaggyRom and it gave me a great experience. :)

For me, I had to take out the battery and reinsert and then was able to boot into recovery, and from there I flashed it with the custom ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] babai001:
Thank you all

Thank you all who replied, i tried ADB but it was unable to recognize my phone. I am a complete newbie to android but i somehow modified an update.zip file to copy put the build.prop file back to system folder, flashed it in recovery mode and my phone started working again! I am going to be more careful next time, by the way how do i backup and restore using CWM?
[General Questions and Answers] sufian88:
Google is your friend.
[General Questions and Answers] Osirisreborn:

A possible solution is to flash back to your original Stock and try rooting again. the stock should get you out of boot loops

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schachinger40:
Hello all,

So, I rooted my kindle fire and successfully installed TWRP but after flashing a new ROM (CM9 Reloaded) it just boots to a black screen. I will see the default kindle logo for a few seconds then nothing but a black back lit screen. I can't get into TWRP, adb shell can't find the device and kfu stalls out after waiting for my device to respond. Also, I don't believe FFF ever installed properly as I never saw the logo. I have tried re-installing the drivers but I still can't get my PC to see it. Under Device manager it will appear as Android Phone: Android ADB Interface.

I searched the forums and all I could find was that i need to get into fastboot which seems impossible at the moment. Is the factory cable my only hope?

Thanks Guys!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schachinger40:
Just in case someone is reading this and is having the same issue, the factory cable worked like a charm. I was able to get back into TWRP recovery. Although, it did take a few tries to get it to boot.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Comeonesticks:
So the only option is to get or make a factory cable?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Factory cable is not your only option but it would definitely be the easiest route.

Otherwise, fix your drivers or do whatever you can to get adb working.

With FFF installed, you can access twrp and reflash the ROM or try a different one.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schachinger40:
It was the only thing that worked for me but it all depends on how much time you are willing to spend on it. For me, it was well worth the $12. I bought mine from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20380015&postcount=9

The quality of the cable is great and I received it within a week. If it doesn't work at first don't freak out. It took a little while to get back into TWRP.

Good luck!
