[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nullkill:
Well looks like you have an answer then. I think you have convinced yourself no matter what version you get you will be missing out which is kinda true. The other opinion would be it doesn't matter much what version you end up with because they are both killer phone capable of doing anything you want.

I don't think any points have been missed we have outlined all the differences and pro's/con's so now it's a matter of biting the bullet for you :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] big_doubleT:
Mine you the 2GB of ram is the only thing that stands out for me for the NA version, I have a few more things that I like with the international version as well. Yes even though barely any apps are optimized for it now, in the future there will be apps optimized for it, making it a future proof phone, it doesn't have any carrier bloatware, its factory unlocked, better development support (CM9 Stable didn't even come out for the US version)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Seriously, what the hell are you like?!

One person says get the international you say "well the US one has x"

Someone else says get the US one and you say "well the international one has y"

You even said that the intl one has a quadcore but nothing is optimised for it yet and the 2gb of ram is better and then in the next comment you say that in the future they will be optimised for it and that's better.

Who are you trying to convince here?

Nobody can make your decision for you, stop flip flopping and just pick one of the damn phones.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Probably not. Most apps rely on serialized processes in their sourcecode, while multiple cores requires parallel workload.

However, phones are long since past the point where a single task is running on the device at a given time.

Let's say you're surfing the web, with a dedicated Javascript and rendering thread that would be 2 cores. The background music (e.g. DRM-encrypted streaming) runs on the third core while other background processes of the system run on the 4.

This allows a very quick rendering of your webpages without stuttering due to CPU-time revokation, while keeping your music playing and ensuring a general smoothness of the OS.

Again, as I said: it's exactly as with the RAM. No single process will "eat" all the RAM, it's always a combination of several processes.

Salutations folks,

Just posting some preview screenshots of some work I've been doing on the Alpha2.

CyanogenMod9 (ICS) and ClockWorkMod Recovery 6.0.1.1

It's still a work in progress as I fix various issues and bugs I've come across, but it's

slowly but surely getting to the point of being stable and usable for daily use. When

it gets stable enough, I will post the rom and install files for public consumption/testing.

Running:

CM9 ICS 4.0.4

3.0.36 custom kernel w/modules specific to alpha2 and feature testing usb gadgets (bluetooth, etc.)

NOTE: currently working on upgrading to 3.0.38/3.0.39 kernel

CWMR 6.0.1.1 (koush's latest) w/fully working menu options, backup/restore, key use for menus

NOTE: currently working on implementing touch menu control

Tested/Working:

Camera (stills, video)

Microphone

Rotation sensor

Wi-fi

Hardware keys (VOL+, VOL-, POWER)

Video (software accelerated, 720p)

Touchscreen

Internal/External sdcards

USB Storage mounting

ADB access/control

Bugfixing:

Camera Zoom controls

Video (hardware acceleration possible on cedarx?)

Touchscreen capacitive buttons (MENU, BACK, HOME)

USB Storage Mounting in CWM6 (adb works fine tho)

Screenshots (click to zoom):

custom compiled CWMR 6.0.1.1 (latest) with custom background, menu colour and clockwork icon

CM9 info menu - little fuzzy, sorry about that

in-UI screenshot of CM9 info menu

CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY

(Updated to 6.0.1.2), Install scripts updated to Version 1.1

As mentioned in another post, I'm releasing the CWM install for public consumption. Please be aware that due to the issues with my SSA2, that

I will probably not be updating this much. This CWM install is mainly for nandroids, etc. Support will be LIMITED, but this recovery mode should

work fine as is. I will NOT be taking requests for features or my CM9/CM10 roms until I can get my SSA2 working 100% again or another one

falls in my lap. (sorry). BUT, github access to the kernel, recovery and CM9 is publicly available. Get coding, if you want it.

Sorry for the lack of updates on this one folks.

I ran into an issue with my alpha2 where I somehow flushed the ft5x (touchscreen) EEPROM and was not able to to get a proper firmware flashed in there to get it working 100% again. Tried contacting Skytex and Focaltech with no luck. (even disassembled the alpha2 to get full model info on the chips in there.. have lots of pics if anyone is interested in seeing the insides of the alpha2). Finally got touchscreen back using a firmware designed for another model of the touchscreen controller in the alpha2, but having issue with needing to calibrate it properly since all touches are showing up 50 degrees off. Focaltech and their docs don't have any info on calibration so I'm kinda stuck for now til I get a chance to hack through the ft5x kernel drivers. Since I'm kneedeep in college studies and exams, I haven't had time. Compounded with the fact that I also have an Acer Iconia Tab a500 now, development on the alpha2 will probably grind to a slow drip.

In the meantime, I've updated all my github repo's (http://github.com/thesawolf) with the device setup for cm9, specific cm9 build stuff as well as working kernel. So if someone is willing, you can "easily" work off of that. I'm hesitant to release the cm9 rom I put together as it is unfinished and in a very functional, but still raw form (need lots of framework tweaks and some more build.prop tweaks) but the cwm recovery works fine and fully functional and a good place to start working from (and if anything for the nandroid backups). I can put that up on dropbox later if anyone interested. Please be aware that there are LOTS of good guides and writeups for compiling your own cm9 roms. Please don't ask me to tell you how. Search and Google is your friend.

Anyways, good luck folks. Hopefully I'll have some better news for everyone once I have more time to goof around on my alpha2 (when I'm not working on my a500 too)

Install scripts and files have been updated to acommodate the fact that the SSA2's have a Version A and Version B difference that was resulting in an issue with gyroscope use on VersB boards with the VersA-based bootloader settings. Have corrected it and created a menu system for the install scripts to handle backup, internal vs. external install options, rebooting into recovery, etc. with the new bootloader settings too. Please re-download the newer version of the install scripts if you are having any issues (and just to have them handy). Enjoy. (updating main post)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyraz:
hi, when Rocket Rom 7 (ics) came out, i installed it. after doing this, when i connected my phone to the pc, the system detects the phone as Samsung_android and shows 2 removable drives in the system. however, if you click on them they dont work

it no longer detects my phone as GT-N7000

what i have noticed: when i connect the usb cable, the phone doesnt show "MTP connection" anymore... instead, it shows USB connected.

what has been done:

flashed rocket rom 10, nogo

reinstalled kies: nogo

reinstalled win7 (yes i actually did that even tho testing on other pcs showed the same issue)

the phone still charges and the only way i can connect my phone to d pc to view files is by clicking "usb storage"

any advice on this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Uninstall kies, and just install driver (find latest from toolbox on my signature)

use different USB port, and dont use any extensor cable to connect device.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyraz:
hi bro... didnt work... i dont think its the driver... its the phone... coz i tested another note, its working fine
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] massochist:
My Galaxy Tab has similar issues. I believe it would be due to the architechture of the ROM forcing you to have to mount your device to your computer before being able to load the Device Internal SD, and the External SD.

Click USB Storage when it shows, this should pop up a window which has a Lil android dude, and USB Storage Message with a button stating 'Turn on USB Storage'. After clicking it, you can click 'Turn Off USB Storage' to unmount the device.

I have never tried criseklos, but I am on rocket ROM right now and I spent all day playing ps1 games on it. Actually I paused the gaming seanses for recharging the battery couple of times. Rom is great and excellent and auperb :-:) great performance and with notecore 13 it is great battery saver too, but hey I am sure that you would try it yourself even if someone tells you that for some reason Rocket rom is bad.

There is of course not bad ROM just a bad users IMHO.

Every single rom is a artistic peace for me. So fell free and try Rocket Rom for a while.

Yes

But you can relock the boot loader if you want your warranty back
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
Of course you can flash back to stock and lock your device.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eddie_gordo:
I actually don't think you'll lose warranty... My device (Vodafone locked, from Portugal) was sold with the bootloader unlocked.. And so did the Nexus of 2 friends of mine.. :)

Worst case scenario, you can just lock it back again if you need to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigweezy1212:
Here's some good advice for you if you are planning on going back to stock or doing ANYTHING else for that matter. If at some point you "brick" your phone (it wont go past Google or wont go past boot) DO NOT call or take your phone to your phone carrier for help. This forum is AMAZING for the information you need to help you with any problem. They say it is almost impossible to brick a Nexus and for the most part, they're right. Just be sure you study study study before you go into your phone. I jumped right in learning as I went and it has cost me quite a bit of dough in new phones. TIP: Putting your phone in the microwave may have wiped the hard drive on older devices but on the Galaxy Nexus.......no. Nuke will just cook it, dont do it. Speaking from experience here.

So, I just flashed the ParanoidAndroid ROM last night with NO issues. It was easy, smooth and I felt like the man when I was done. It was all because this time around I did my reading.

Good Luck to you!

I had 4ext flashed onto my SD card, but inorder for me to relock my bootloader (htcdev unlock) I needed to get back to stock recovery first. So I found one and flashed it thinking it would boot that one and I could install it from there but my phone just stays on the white HTC screen when I click recovery.

Phone info: hboot version .98

Android 2.3.4

Software 6.01.605.05

Htcdev unlocked bootloader

4ext and stock recovery on sdcard.

I'm completely lost on what to do. I've formatted my sdcard and started over, re unlocked my phone and tried downgrading through the htcdev unlock guide. And my cmd keeps giving me this error and if I relock my phone and attempt tacoroot I can't get past ".../tacoroot.sh --setup" because of says there is no recovery. I've posted/looked around multiple forums with no help. Would a factory reset/relock and tacoroot do it?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] christopherwoods:
I had to replace the screen and digitiser on my TP2 after shutting it in the boot of a car (clever huh?). I accomplished the swap surprisingly easily after buying a pre-built screen and digitiser from Hong Kong for about £25. It even came with a spudger to help me take it apart :) I followed a few guides, including this iFixit one, which greatly helped.

Frustratingly though after putting it all back together and making a test call, the earpiece rattles during calls. Not a lot, but enough to make me want to fix it; applying gentle pressure to a certain top part of the bezel reduces the rattle a little bit but I've taken it apart three times and taped up various sections now to see if stops the problem. Unfortunately, no such luck.

Is the earpiece rattle something to do with inadequate insulation (or the ribbon cable running down the back of the screen)? Everything's sandwiched in pretty tight and I've reapplied electrical tape to what I think are the key areas. I've also padded the top area where the earpiece comes through the metal mesh and I've stuck the mesh down with doublesided tape so it can't move about. The problem persists though...

Everything else works fine, and the speaker also works perfectly with no vibrations or rattles (even though I also took that bit apart to inspect it) so I can't figure out why just the earpiece is rattling. Anybody taken their Touch Pro2 apart, had the same problem and solved it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wizardknight:
I have torn apart probably 3-4 TP2 screens and never had anything rattle. Did you lose a screw in there by chance? That is the only thing that would be small enough to rattle in there I think.

The only other thing I could thing that it might be is a bad connection to the vibrator motor. Maybe you have the little ribbon cable pinched or a bit off the socket it fits in.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamensterms:
Hey guys,

In a moment of great weakness... i have destroyed my SGS2. This phone has been giving me a lot of grief lately (spontaneous and looping reboots, slow or no data connection, apps not behaving as should - requiring reinstalls, and general buginess)... and the result is a cracked temper and a cracked screen.

All that aside - i have decided not to get the screen repaired, but to get a new phone (no idea what my next handset should be - will gladly take suggestions).

So... Lately I have been backing up a lot of my apps using Titanium - which is great. And I have my contacts set to auto-sync with my gmail account - which it has failed to do since adding a few new contacts yesterday.

So my questions are... what is the best way to retrieve/backup the following data now that the screen is un-usable (but the phone seems to still work ok):

- Contact and Calendar Data

- Apps (or list of apps) that Titanium hasnt backed up

I figure I may need a different method of app backup/restore if i do not wish to root my next phone. There doesn't seem to be an automatic feature in the Play Store which keeps track of which apps I have installed... Is there another way to do it?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers.

I'm almost tempted to suggest Kies as solution for retrieving all organizer data (contacts, calendar, tasks, notes) since it does not require mobile screen interaction.
