[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikewiz:
Hey guys,

I'm still hanging on to my Epic 4G. I was running CM9 for the past few months until it started getting very laggy and I couldn't get MMS to work to save my life.

I went back to a plain old Deodexed FC09 (the one in qbking77's youtube video on how to root on FC09). I was tolerating the lackluster 2.3 software in favor of everything working properly. As of the past month, Sprint has been working on towers in the Chicago area and coverage has suffered. I was no longer able to get 3G, I had to turn on 4G or wifi to use facebook or any data. I then took a look at my wifes HTC EVO 4G LTE and as of yesterday, she is running 3G data without any problem. I reflashed mine with a fresh FC09 yesterday, and still no change.

As of this point everything is backed up and I have nothing to lose. Should I try out CM10? Is there anything special about flashing a kang? I've never done it before. What all is not working on the CM10 kangs? I'm nowhere near an expert when it comes to the android platform, but I can handle rooting and flashing roms just fine. Am I getting in over my head?

Thanks!

Matt

In my opinion, not yet. It's a bit too unstable and laggy for daily use at this point. I'd wait.

The instability is not worth it for an OS not that different from ICS

Is it possible to, or should I flash a different Kernel onto a custom ROM? Will it break my phone? I wanted to check out the JB Camera in the SSGSII Themes and Apps forum. But it says you have to have a CM10 kernel. I am running Darkside evolution v8. I am not all up to speed on how kernels work or how they relate as far as compatability issue.

Hey guys!

I just lost my phone right now, and I want to remove my play store account remote by using my computer, and connecting through my stolen phone.

Anyone knows how to do that?

How do I remotely track my phone and delete my account?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty12:
I don't know about tracking your phone, but head here and:

Change your password: Security->Change password

Remove any Android stuff from authorised applications: Security->Authorising applications and sites - Edit

After that, your phone shouldn't be able to sign into your Google account.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciex:
Thanks a lot for the info.

Just a quick question. I saw some on my list which had "Android" and something more, don't remember, plus I saw "Android - full account access" or something. Does it mean if I remove the list, it will definitely totally remove my account on my old devices which was stolen completely off?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curls1:
call your network and ask them to block and lock the phone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty12:
Unfortunately, your account won't be removed from the phone (so data like cached Gmail emails will probably be still visible), but the phone will not be able to sign into your account to download apps etc. (especially paid apps), read your new emails and so on
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciex:
Thanks! I hope the thief didn't even managed to download or buy anything from the market.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgalan14:
If tiu check your email related to your account and check if you have anything bought ,you should put a lock screen on the phone next time tho, you could also put a password on play store(go to the app and settings )

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrrogers1:
Install this on your next device

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lsdroid.cerberus

It's a pretty amazing app, I have it on all Android devices in my stable. It's EXTREMELY powerful and easy to use at that. If I were in your current situation and had Cerberus onboard, I'd login via Web interface, activate tracking, lock the screen, then set it to take a picture with the FF camera as soon as the phone is touched. Once the screen is touched the pic will be emailed to your gmail, then I'd activate the alarm and have a message that says, "I know where you are...." flashed on the screen along with the screeching alarm sound. When they try to stop the alarm, another pic would be taken.

Once the pics are done and the fun with the alarm and message is over, I'd remotely wipe the sd card and begin trying to make way to the phone. All else fails send the wipe phone command and then call Sprint and report it stolen so they kill data and voice services.

Good luck man!

Kid you not, it's simple to do all that, even from someone else's phone. :D

[HTC One X] nman123:
okay so my title is exactly what im thinking about doing

the reason i simple

DEVELOPMENT

FASTER OTAS

so what in you opinion makes the Tegra 3 version shine over the S4 version besides for the two reasons i listed above

also one big thing is that the international version i heard has terrible battery life compared to the s4 and also that it has a lot of hardware problems

i am going to try to trade my s4 for an international version so what should i look out for
[HTC One X] sm625614:
I actually just did that and i have not regretted it one bit. It cost me about 75 bucks to trade but it was well worth it. Development on the ATT one x was a complete joke. The main reason i came over was ViperX. It is truly an amazing rom. Battery life is a tad worse but nothing noticeable. Trust me make the switch.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Cloudstrife:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shook187:
Hi guys. I'm anxiously waiting for my GS3 to arrive Monday morning in the mail. My questions for you guys who made the switch, was it a worth while switch? In my case I had to cough up an extra 130 dollars for the price difference between selling my Evo and buying a new GS3. The Evo is a great phone but I felt it had a bit of lack of Development support, I feel like all sense ROMs are all the same and they all ran its course with me. Lack of AOSP roms what is also a contributing factor.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slacker032:
How do the 3G speeds compare? My area isn't going to get LTE for awhile so 3G speeds are really important to me - possibly a deal breaker.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dribbs1:
Quite frankly, I think Samsung has flipped flopped roles with HTC on this latest release of their two new superphones. Where as 2 years ago, HTC's Sense UI was a very fluid, intuitive experience that worked well with the OG Evo, the original version of Touch Wiz was gimmicky, buggy, and not polished. I think it's a bit of the opposite now, at least from a polish perspective.

HTC's Evo 4G LTE seems to be more about "neat" tricks, gadgets, and features, both within the hardware AND the software. Super slo-mo video and 2-way kickstand are two of the more prominent examples of this. Although Sense 4.0 has stayed true to its roots on the OG Evo, I feel like a lot of their new features and tricks seem to be "forced" or "squeezed in", just to try to make it a cooler device.

At this point I will take the opportunity to apologize to all of the resident ROM flashers and custom MOD users on this forum, noting that I can and will ONLY talk about these experiences from a stock load perspective because I work for Sprint, and don't condone nor pretend to even delve in to rooting and/or loading custom/baked ROM's.... ok... that's my disclaimer. Back to HTC vs. Sammy.

On the GS3, Samsung has developed a spectacular experience and interface, which is clearly focused on combining a very organic feel to a visually lush and beautiful experience. YES, I am impressed with the display. YES, I like shiny things. YES, explosions and other rauckus, Michael Bay-esque displays of pyrotechnics are what make me smile. BUT... I think Samsung has done this in a VERY elegant, intuitive, non-overbearing way. In the 3 days that I have used the SGS3, I feel like it's a true extension of what I want in a SMART PHONE. I like bells and whistles, but I don't want to force myself to look for ways to use them. I appreciate that the SGS3 is utilitarian in its practical design, but dilectable in its visual presentation and experience.

Don't get me wrong - I really like the super slo-mo, the kickstand, and other unique features on the LTEvo as well as the overall experience. Even after I got my SGS3, it took me 3 or 4 days to build up the courage to 'leave' the LTEvo... but I did... and now I'm seeing why I'm slowly becoming a Sammy-file. I think Sammy has done more to make their user-interface experience more fluid and natural.

Please note that this is only MY HUMBLE OPINION, and does not in ANY way reflect the ideas of my employer as a collective whole. I would also like to note that even if you already chose the LTEvo as your most recent super-phone, I don't think you chose wrong. It's a purely personal choice and experience. Most importantly, I thank you for CHOOSING Sprint, regardless of which device you decide to go with!

[HTC One V] bluevolt:
I am in mobile market for past 15 days and after some research only one phone has touched my heart i.e. HTC One V. It's design is fantastic, screen is good, has expandable memory, has snob value, good build quality, expandable memory, running latest android os, fair battery capacity, camera is better than most phones in this category etc. Only issue is single core 1GHZ processor because of which many have turned against this phone. I haven't tried this phone my self yet but from most youtube videos I can see that this phone hardly lags or slow downs. It is almost capable of running most of the applications.

Now coming down to my requirements from a phone

-> Basic phone usage i.e incoming/outgoing calls and SMSes.

-> Internet browsing/Email

-> Music listening

-> Taking Photos

-> Watching movies/youtube videos

After considering these requirements I find HTV One V a perfect phone for myself. I hardly play any game and it looks VFM. (Retailing for around 17K with 8GB card).

Please suggest me whether I should stick to this phone or is there any new better model coming up?

Xperia U is ruled out because of non-expandable memory, Xperia Sola and others are not touching heart (not feeling exclusive as design is almost same across the XPERIA range).

I have seen that there are number of complaints for HTC One V like yellow spots, phone not charging etc. I don't want any issues in a new phone. Are those issues now solved or was particular to a specific manufactured lot?

Any other phones in my fixed budget of 20K?

[HTC One V] bezbeV:
Hello bluevolt,

I can understand that feeling of a phone touching your heart. Design and styling wise you don't have much options. Battery capacity is good and for your intended use will stay for about 30hrs on full charge. The display is something that is excellent (visibility problem only with bright sunlight) but I do have some reservations about the camera. Images look good on phone screen but the shortcomings are visible on bigger screens or print (my wife's sony xperia x10 mini 5MP camera gives better images). Here I am not talking about image clarity but image quality. Many take both as same. Colors feel extra bright sometimes (particularly in bright portraits) like some artificiality. I don't think you plan to use the camera for something more than casual photography and so it should suffice.

Coming to complaints - yes I faced the issue of yellow spots on display right at bottom and top left corners. It was not affecting anything but annoying sometimes (white background especially) more because you expect a company to quality check each and every product before it comes to market (they will put stickers "QC passed") and still miss something like that on screen!!! I procured the set from Malaysia and did not want to part with the phone for long :silly: so decided not to report the issue. Then one day when I was traveling, my phone just died in my pocket without any reason (enough battery, no chance of combination keys being active) and realized that HTC service center is as bad as it can be. It took almost a month for them to declare it irreparable and provide a replacement (yet to come to my hand).

You have an alternative in Xperia Neo L which is retailing at about 18K. You will definitely get a better camera, and 4" screen, but battery may be compromised (please see the specifications in detail). It all boils down to personal preference

If you plan to buy HTC One V, properly check for any display issues right in the shop. It must be visible on the white background when you switch it on (especially in corners) and also if you try google play store (without net connection - grey background) and also if you open ebooks. If so reject the piece outright. Shop will get it replaced. You argue for another set or moneyback.

I have to agree on one thing. OneV is a looker and it grows on you. I was more worried about not having it in my hand rather than thinking about getting the complaint rectified.

Regards
[HTC One V] GTI WR6:
One V is great, but if I had the choice again I'd go for the One S.
[HTC One V] BirthdayDog11:
If it touched your heart, you have to go for it! Because if you like the design you're not going to enjoy anything else. Don't worry about the processor, it runs very smooth. I had a 1.5GHz dualcore before, and noticed no real speed difference. HTC is even releasing a 600MHz phone these days, the Desire C. And you can overclock. It's perfectly stable at 1.5GHz, and with any luck you can go to 2GHz. Any more than that just needlessly reduces battery life. You will be able to go over a day without charging, and laugh at everybody who can't.

As for your personal requirements, I think it does all of those fine. I don't know whether watching full-length movies on a 3.7" screen will be fun, in case you meant that. But any of the bigger phones will barely have the battery life to do that. It's best to get a cheap tablet and use the V as a wifi router in that case.

I don't know about manufacturing errors, as my phone came just fine. But I'm not seeing too many complaints on this forum. And I think you will just get a replacement in that case. They say the One series is a bit easy to brick though, but if you are careful you should be fine.

As for alternatives, if you don't need GPS capabilities, a used Galaxy S would offer roughly the same hardware for a lot less money. I don't think you will enjoy it with the One V in the back of your mind though. And the Xperia Ray might be worth looking up in case you are fine with such small a screen. Also you can try this to get some more ideas. Just be sure to google whether they have any flaws. Most One V alternatives do have some crippling flaw, the One V does not.

I am not aware of interesting alternatives being released soon. And if you get a newly released phone you will have to go without custom roms for quite a while. The One V already has an official MIUI, and will soon have CyanogenMod9.

Bad battery life, and from what I read getting a GPS fix takes two minutes. Also the low button placement makes it really fumbly and easy to drop.
