[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Sorry HTC but you fail. Lets first start off by saying I was by your side in the beginning. But after awhile you realize how much of a dog the EVO is. Unfortunately most wont realize the magnitude of failure till you own a GS3.

It hurts my fingers typing this cause i was so anti samsung. The root of the failure is Sense and it's resource hogging ways. The broken multitasking is just a cover up from HTC to squeeze some performance out of a already sluggish phone. Just hitting the home button is a nightmare with all the loading it does.

HTC's failure rate has been abysmal, base on what I've seen and heard from Sprints corporate store in Burlington Massachusetts.

Im sure I might get flamed from a few people here, but I just wanted to vent my displeasure with HTC and it saddenings me watching this Titanic sink to the level of nokia.

That being said, those wondering if the grass is greener on the otherside? My answer to that is a big hell yeah.

I'm really sick of reading this. The phone feels cheaper, it's plastic. Got it. It's the go-to argument for the EVO being better, we see it in every thread.

I definitely love the build of my phone when I take the case off once a month, but if that's the best you got on EVO 4G LTE vs. GS3, why even post?

The OP is painful to read.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
I couldn't tell the difference cause they both spent their lifes in a Otterbox case, so your point has no value.

If u want another argurment the EVO has a better dev community, camera, screen, abd it has a kickstand something sgs3 dosnt have so take your thread and go back to your own damn section.

EDIT:better battery life and not worrying about our phones melting is another plus
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
Well... Maybe stock vs stock is leaning towards SGSIII, but my overclocked EVO running Viper4G is as snappy as any phone in existence. No Sense reloads. Almost sufficient multi-tasking. Only irritates me like once a week. I love my phone again. Thank you devs.

Plus I have a kickstand that I've used every day of my life, literally, since my OG EVO...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
I will elaborate more when I get the chance. Im currently working. Some are argumentative like removable battery and video capture, so I'll save that for a rainy day. I could also bring up the lack of devs support but im sure someone will say why dont i learn to develop.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] funcrusher:
If you would have said bigger, I would have outright laughed, but since you said better, I'm willing to listen. Elaborate on this one, pal.

Yeah, ok bud, I'll get right on that.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
By the way this is in no way a Evo vs GS3. Im just venting my displeasure with HTC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
I agree on the multitasking front, HTC should fix it and stop calling it an "intended feature". At the very least stop reffering to it as multitasking, HTC.

While I don't like Sense, you can't really blame HTC for it. Samsung does the same thing with Touchwiz. What we as customers should demand is either a way to disable these third party resource-hogs or petition them to release pure Android builds for their phones (which I believe HTC did for the Desire).

I doubt the above would happen and I refuse to purchase Samsung phones (based on horrible experiences I've had in the past) so what I am really hoping for is for the next Nexus phone to be build by HTC. Awesome hardware and pure Android software would be pure bliss.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SoraX64:
"This isn't an Evo vs GS3, I'm just saying that the GS3 is better than the Evo!" - you

Seriously, just please get out. If you didn't like the Evo, that's your own damn problem and we don't care one little bit.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madhatterxx:
I have searched the forums and google for an answer to this but haven't been able to find anything.

What I'm trying to do is use my computers internet for my phone, and then broadcast it out. I've downloaded and used successfully the xda Android Reverse Tethering .exe and it's worked wonderfully. But the thing is I want to be able to use it in conjuction with a wifi tether app from my Samsung Galaxy S. My phone is rooted.

The purpose of this is to get internet connection on my PSP Vita. All of the internet in my house is wired, I don't own a wifi router nor do I want one. I live in a building where finding wifi passwords is easy for everyone as we all have the same general field of work, but no one near me has wifi.

What I've tried so far is using the xda Reverser Tether program with Barnacle Wifi Tether, Open Garden WiFi, and WiFi Tether. All apps I've downloaded from the marketplace. They work well at broadcasting my cell signal for use as Wifi, but none of them have been able to use the internet being sent from my phone.

In short what I'm looking for, or even if it exists, is a way to transfer my hard wired internet through my computer to my phone and subsequently the cellphones ability to act as a Wifi router.

Use virtual router software in your pc and turn on pc and phones wifi.and connect to pcs wifi connection.if you have confusion try virtual router in google. i got succeeded in this but i dont have any link to give you.

If i helped press thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madhatterxx:
This sounds like something that might do it. I have it downloaded but it's not doing anything. What were the steps you got to make it work for you?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madhatterxx:
Well, I was able to get it to work using redankaiahu's advice. The only thing is I had to go out and buy a usb-wifi adapter instead of using my phone like I would've liked. Oh well.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
Put it short, Epic is a decent device and I love it. But one thing I can't quite understand is its screen unlock (DRAG TO UNLOCK). I've checked out quite a lot of videos of other GS1 variants and of course seen GS1 i9000 around me and they all use the "sweep screen" unlock method. Well I know if I want more customizations I "OUGHT TO" flash custom ROMs (and I do, I seldom stay on stock) BUT times when I want to have a genuine Samsung feel I feel disgusted by E4G's unlock and want to "sweep" like other GS1s. Any workarounds (porting only the lockscreen)?

P.S. I'm on FC19 and decompiling the framework reveals "zzz_unlock_puzzle_xxx.png"s which stand for puzzle unlock (another common GS1 feature) and "zzz_unlock_arrow_xxx.png"s which stand for sweep unlock. Don't know how to enable them. Looks like Samsung has hid quite a lot of things from us (e.g. the hidden standard GS1 boot animation)

NOTE: MY ONLY PURPOSE IS TO LOOK AND FEEL AS "GS1-ish" AS POSSIBLE SO SORRY DON'T SUGGEST 3RD PARTY LOCK OR AOSP LOCKSCREEN. :(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Modoru:
Well, I'm not so keen on manually forcing the different lockscreens, but an alternative you could look into (if you so desire) is WidgetLocker. It's not native, but it allows you to customize your lockscreen! Sorry I can't be more help.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
AOSP lock screen flashable is all over. Do a search for it and I am sure it is laying around. My TPR uses it. Puzzle unlock got broken in Gingerbread and was always buggy.

Edit: here: http://db.tt/vg3b2mJh
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
If I can bear 3rd party lockscreen then Xiaomi Lockscreen imitates "puzzle unlock" quite well. WidgetLocker is customizable but looks too lame.

But no, I literally won't bear ANY process in background other than SystemUI, inputmethod and current launcher. 3rd party's not my dish 'cuz just seeing them hanging around is annoying.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
If I need AOSP looks I'd nandroid back to CM7. The only purpose I use FC19 is that it looks like GS1 and GS2...

And if it's "buggy" then it means there's a way to at least enable it, no? ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
I'm sorry, but I have to....

PUZZLE UNLOCK!!! My baby!! Come back to me!!

On a serious note, if you want to try this you'll have to be on either EC05(Froyo) or EI22(GB). The EI22 version was buggy though.

Anyways, you could always do something like:

Flash Legendary Rom RC 2.2:

and my Sony UI theme: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1370907 :)(for EI22, BML and MTD versions available)

This method is BML only.

Flash the stock EC05 froyo rom*: http://db.tt/k4FM5Oa7

*Note if you are on MTD, instead of flashing this, you need to Odin and repartition to EC05, then follow the rest of the steps.

deodex it by flashing this: http://db.tt/sBFyThTN

then flashing one of these themes to get the lockmod:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
Why "sorry"? I'm glad to see at least somethin' really answering me!

But look I'm on latest FC19 and I don't want to be the old timer with E_XX gingerbread or even froyo ROMs. So since there are mods, there must be ways to add it. And based on the fact no one has the source code, I can say that mods are done at "decompile, mod, recompile, sign" level, no?

Then do I have a way just to try adding it to my existing FC19 installation?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I thought that was the slide over to unlock you were talking about. And your welcome!

No. Mine's fine with the stock Gallery app. But try QuickPic and see if it helps.
[Asus Transformer TF700] 2tabletfamily:
I like QuickPic too --- I just like the way it works ---- and Photo Editor works easily for quickly resizing -- I found the attach take forever to load (maybe never load..... I gave up waiting) so I resize the photos,,,, works great.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pertain:
I noticed the same thing and found that the Gmail app only attaches files that are stored in device storage. Every time I tried to attach a file stored on microsd the message goes through sans attachment.

Not sure if this is a bug or deliberate but it definitely makes the app less useful.

My issue was the opposite. I had a picture attached to an email (.jpg). And on the TF700 when I download or view it, it ends up blank. It works fine and displays fine on my SGS2. But not on the tablet. I tried deleting the saved file and re-downloading it from gmail many times and it was always a blank file with 0 KB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevenjcampbell:
Hey all,

I get my phone tomorrow, and coming from an Incredible 2 that was running paranoid android ROM i am anxious to see what this can do with the same sort of software, bigger screen.

I really like stock roms, and although all the software tricks the s3 does sounds good, I dont think I would use many of them.

So question is, are all the JB roms pretty much stable?

The Incredible 2 was missing any camera features (just wouldnt work) and google now was non existant...

But yeah, which way would you go?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zool4nd3r:
I've tried Synergy ROM and also Paranoid Android. Personally I am loving PA right now. In the most recent stable build 1.9.5 nearly everything was working. There are some minor (to me) things like not being able to send MMS, but the fluidity of JellyBean is so worth it and Google Now works flawlessly. With the screen being as big as it is, the on screen keys don't seem to take up too much room for me, and I've really gotten used to them. It also disables the backlight for the physical keys so they disappear in the phone. Again...with the screen size, hybrid mode is really nice. The dual-pane display make going through setting a lot easier and really it just looks fantastic. One huge part for me was the JB messaging app. The stock TW one just looked so ugly, it made me hate texting...

Anyway, some of the motion features were nice, the ones I used the most were the swipe to capture screenshot and also direct call from messaging (putting the phone up to your ear whilst in a text conversation) but the rest were pretty worthless IMO.

If you don't feel like dealing with a not so functioning camera and a few other bugs, I would go with Synergy. Noticably faster than stock, I even got faster data speeds, too. Just anything but stock haha.

Any more questions let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Personally, it never made much sense to me to run a ROM as your DD that disables basic functions like MMS.

I have tried all the available ROMs just to satisfy my curiosity at that point, but I always end up back with the root66 as it is every bit as fast and fluid as any other ROM (claims that another ROM are noticeably faster than a debloated stock setup are total BS) and every function works perfectly. I do run synergy at times also and it's awesome as well.

I have a setup running NOVA Launcher that is awesome. Apex and Nova where always a bit laggy in previous phones but the response is virtually instant and it's smooth and fluid in the G3 so anybodies claims that another ROM can make this setup noticeably faster are just a placebo IMHO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rpenkar:
Agreed. I think the only reason I don't run stock (or any debloated form of stock is just because I'm flash happy and really like active development of Team Synergy)

I'm running Synergy 1.5 right now - no complaints here. Runs smoothly and I'm also using Nova and not seeing any lag. Recently flashed the leankernel and cpu editor script. Will see if that makes any difference in battery life. Even if it doesn't, I won't be upset because let's face it...I'm a heavy user of the device. I've purchased a couple extra batteries (with a charging cradle) that I can just pop in and out when needed. Best solution for me!

Hello. First of all i did a huge search and tried everything i found before posting. I rooted my phone, use bootstrap, made a nandroid backup, saved it on my pc and tried to flash cm9. When i reboot phone from recovery it got stuck on M logo. I tried to go back to recovery and made a data wipe, rebooted phone and got stuck again. I tried to restore stock with RSD...didnt work. Start flashing and after a couple minutes said flash failed. My stock rom is from Claro PR. Gb 2.3.5 and i didnt find any where that file to use via RSD. I tried Latinamerican 2.3.5 (Argentina) and 2.3.6 and nothing. Tried to restore stock rom using Razr tool and it shows something like signature failed....thats because it restore to stock EU firmware. My phone keep stock on fasboot flashing failure or something like that. I found that i can flash system.img from my nandroid backup via adb( mean fastboot) but when i extract my nandroid backup theres only three ext3 files and the .md5. I open every file trying to find an .img but nothing. What can i do? How can use that file to restore my phone? It is posible to change that files to .img? Does somebody has the system.img file from stock Claro PR 2.3.5 or any other that worked for you on Claro? Please help!!! Thanks in advance.

These files shaw be restored thru safestrap/bootstrap. If you lost recovery then you'll need to flash a fresh firmware with RSD lite.
