Sony is very original (design, ui, apps, Cosmic Flow, Floating Touch, White Magic etc.) and yet everything is absolutelly beautiful unlike Samsung, who copies almost everything from Apple (design, ui-touchwiz, s voice.....) and guess what....everything is ugly and worse. Sony also updated all of its 2011 phones, when tried to offer all of their features. Samsung offers new features only to their new Galaxy S series, when you have lower end phone and get update for GB to ICS it still looks the same. It is sad that they still hold most of the market, I wish Sony had more market share than Samsung because they try hard and they really deserve it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adsada arc:
Also what no one seems to notice but sony was the first to use the look of the notification draw icon in the middle with two apps either side of it. This interface was then adopted my google in the stock version of ICS and now other manufacturers have skinned their ICS skin to this look as well (HTC one series for example)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dsaklein:
Im using a stock one but for my second choice would be for sure launcher 360 or QQ launcher....

BTW....sony has a great phones but it would be better if they a little bit hurry with their updates, and offcourse it would be alot better if they provide fix for our speaker( xperia U) with a new update
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alexpraga:
I'm using adw: nothing negative to point out.

Stock launcher looks great but does not lock the icons/widgets and only allows 4 rows plus the bottom icon bar. With xps we have room for at least 5+1 rows.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
I use my ported Stock launcher with preferences. The new v4 will be ultimate.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] darth5zaft:
Sony is a lot cheaper too. U could get dual core ics upgradable sola or sxu lower than gb rocking,single core using ****ty galaxy w.

Sony could use some marketing tool. Samsung is really good at it. so much advertisment around, their ongoing fight with apple as well as rocking the king of droid s3,

One thing I notice is with heavy touchwiz as well as sammy never really give android any credit.normal people I knew,think android is a Samsung creation. Buying other brand would leed them to lose the playstore. U could not believe the reaction I get when I shows them I too have the playstore.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jitin02:
Does ur ported version works on Xperia U ??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tadeas482:
Sorry, I dont know those launchers, so I didnt add them to the poll and now I cant edit it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tadeas482:
Yeah, Samsung is selfish but I admit they are good. Just like Apple....some sheep sees an advert of the S III and does not even know anything about the phone and hurries to buy. Google said, that Sony is friendly to AOSP. Samsung and HTC do not listen Google's instructions and just corrupt the Android in their way, which is very ugly and doesnt have the feel of Android....it feels like a completely different system.

The 4x4 grid of the stock launcher is cobblers though, make it 5x4 and I'll use it.

hi, how do you use the widgets?

on off widgets and clocks for 3rd party launchers?

i can find them only on the stock launcher..

do i have to install new widgets?

and which widgets would you suggest with the other launchers???
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tadeas482:
Sorry, I dont know this launcher and I cannot add it anymore.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tadeas482:
You place the widget on one of your screens. Timescape widgets are only available in Xperia Home but other widgets installed are available in every launcher. Some widgets are installed with the app and some are separate. You will find the in the Play Store. Depends on yourself....there are thousands of widgets...

Sony stock is the best

Hi,

Sony stock is the best of all the other companies stock. But i use apex launcher as default coz i cannot modify the icons in the stock. Also to mention i use apex launcher with icon packs of go launcher and it works/looks awesome.

I have flashed multiple roms since I purchased my s3 a few weeks ago. I really want to get all the leftover junk off my phone from the multiple flashes. Will odining back to stock take all the leftover trash off my internal SD card? Is there any other method that can restore my internal SD card to factory freshness? What task does FORMAT/ SYSTEM perform? Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shiftr182:
Odin back to stock, then go to settings, then back up and reset, then do a factory data reset. It will wipe your sd card, all the apps, data, everything.
[General Questions and Answers] hampox:
Hi,

I would like to use the buttons of a bluetooth headset for media control but the music shall only play through the headphone jack.

No music should be played throught the bluetooth headset and no calls should be forwarded to it.

Is there a way to make this happen? I have a rooted phone with rootexplorer and I could modify the conifg files in /etc/bluetooth/ which might solve this problem? I have 2.2 froyo.

Would it work if I would modify the audio.conf in this way:

[General]

Change:

Enable = Sink, Control

Disable = Headset, Gateway, Source

To:

Enable = Control

Disable = Headset, Gateway, Source, Sink

Thanks for your help!

[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
Hi

I have HTC hero with CWM recovery. I was in recovery and mounted the sd card, copied few files from sd-card to comp and then on the phone I just clicked back button then realised I should have Unmounted that, having done that on the next reboot it gave me an error to remove the card and insert it, I realised something is wrong so went back into the recovery and tried mounting it but it gave me the error - "unable to write to ums Lunfile".

I dont know what to do now, the card is 8GB and dont have any other card, everything was working fine prior to this.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Plug the card into your PC and format it
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
sorry mate, that did not work, I also used another 2GB card, formated but that does not work as well.

Using 2GB and going into CWM recovery, while mounting it still gives the same msg?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
I also checked that 8GB card putting into the card reader and using it on Win-7, the card shows fine, it is showing that Fat32 partition, obviously it is not going to show me Linux partitions.

So the point is how am I going to use that 8GB card back into my HTC hero?

should I flash CWM again on the phone? will that work?

But the phone does not recognise any sdcard so I cannot flash as well..??

what to do?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Try to reflash jordfaz's CWM

[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
That does not seem to be for hero gsm i guess

this thread to be honest has got only 1 person replying and was quite annoyed as he couldnt do it and was gonna throw his phone then so I am worried.

Is there anyway I could either flash RA-Hero-1.7 recovery image through command windows, if that could solve this problem?

and how to if possible.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1723409 here, copy the .zip to a SDcard via your PC and flash it with your existing recovery
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
My friend you didnt get it.

My sdcard itself is not recognised by the recovery, so obviously even if I put it on the sdcard, the card itself is not recognised so I cannot use it.

Thats why I asked if it would be possible to put xxxxxx.IMG file through FASTBOOT and if anyone can advise if that would work?

Else as I already have CWM 5.xx can I replace it with recovery-RA-hero-1.7xx.IMG file? will that solve the problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Try it, i taught you cant mount your SD card, are you S-OFF, if you are get Amon RA .img, reboot to fastboot, do fastboot flash recovery AmonRa.img
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
No I am S-ON

will that be a problem?

suddenly now adb has stopped working.

what a day begins man

could you please give me the step by step commands to flash amonra.img please..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Can you boot into your ROM ? Does your ROM "see" your SD card. If both of these questions answer yes then do this. Mount your SDCard in your ROM and copy amonra.img to it. Then do

adb remount
adb shell
flash_image recovery /sdcard/amonra.img or flash_image recovery /mnt/sdcard/amonra.img
exit
adb reboot recovery

Hopefully it should go ok, if you get some errors copy output here and i'll help
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
I can boot into ROM but it cannot see the sdcard?

Now no matter what I do the "adb" doesnt see the devices as well -

I treid

adb kill-server

adb start-server

adb devices

and it says no devices found

I tried going in fastboot mode and then also adb does not see my device.

it has gone to a stage - helpless

Is USB debugging on ??? Are you on linux or windows ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
:S This is weird... It sure would help if you were S-OFF but now since no SDCard or ADB this is gonna be a tough fix. Only think i see posible is to get ROM Manager from market and flash CWM recovery from there, i think that ROM Manager will flash version 2.x.x.x
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
i checked that, there is no market on the phone now as everything was app2sd, market is gone as well
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
I have Ubuntu on one machine, it was there just for some trial and learning purpose

would anything help with that
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Are you sure your USB cable is OK ? No device found is almost 100% bad cable connection, do you have a spare USB
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
My cable is ok, i have a spare one as well, tried that , same thing, adb doesnt find anything.

I also installed android sdk20 on another pc (64bit) and that doesnt recognise phone in recovery as well..

even while connected, it doesnt even show new drivers installing or nothing..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
Dont try to adb in recovery, try while in rom
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
no, not working in rom, now another problem, I thought let me factory reset the phone so that I might be able to get all the programs back, without any sdcard links, but this one now keeps showing me htc-sense error and force close, which means now I cannot even go in my rom as well..

wth...

Guys, have I bricked my phone now??

Is there anything I could try to do through fastboot?

can it help?

can i flash anything from here?

Try fastboot flash recovery amonra.img
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
it said

anything you guys can think of?

[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
Ok I have managed to get sdcard working little bit not completely though with the help as above.

I flashed CWM 5.x recovery back as I had done the backup with the same.

(somehow still adb doesnt work and mount/unmount would not work from recovery)

Formatted sdcard thru recovery the options used were -

sd-ext - 512

swap - 0

it got formated properly

tried restoring the backup went everything ok except the last part where it was trying to restore sd-ext it said

Restoring sd-ext

Formating sd-ext failed!

dont know what to do now?

could it be because sd-ext is 512 bcos I dont remember how much was the partition size in original when i created it?

Ok i tried formating sd-ext with 1024 and did the whole process again but it still gives error -

Rstoring boot image..

restoring system...

restoring data...

restoring .android_secure...

restoring cache...

restoring sd-ext...

Error while formatting /sd-ext!

help please, I have reached to a stage where I dont know further what to do as now it can boot into the ROM but has only limited things no market no apps nothing?

should I try fixing permissions in recovery?

Or where can I find "recovery-RA-hero-v1.7.0.1" in zip format to be able to flash just from sdcard and not thru adb please?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] VJKotts:
Hello. I have the Samsung Galaxy S3 and want to switch back to the One X due to its awesome screen. I initially didn't like the One X due to the overbearing Sense (especially the multitasking, I hated that side scrolling thing). Are there stable builds od Jellybean available? If you tried them, how is your experience with it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xvitality:
I'm using CM10 on my One X and love it. So much faster and more responsive than sense.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] damagecase13:
After I rooted I went to CleanROM 4.5 and I loved it. I enjoy sense, I just was much nicer on CleanROM thats for sure. But this is my first ever android phone, so i wanted to experience stock android. That's when I flashed CM10. I Gotta say, man is it ever smooth! This phone runs amazingly with Jelly Bean, its so fast so smooth and just so much better than sense.

I have owned every iphone up until now, and man, it was the right choice to change!

Sent from my HTC One X on CM10!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I only played around with CM10 for a short time yesterday, so others can certainly speak on the matter better than I. But seeing as you haven't received a great many responses so far, here is my 2 cents:

Short answer is that JB is very young, and things are changing quickly and often.

The general UI is very smooth, and works very well. But there are still various bugs being worked out on certain aspects, which may or may not be a deal breakers for you (for now), depending on how you use your phone. On the 8-26 nightly, streaming audio was broken (Pandora didn't work at all) and even playing non-streaming music (MP3's on the SD) mostly did not work. It looks like this may have been fixed on the 8-28 nightly. But things are changing literally day by day, and not always for the better due to upstream changes. Seems that in call volume has gone back and forth from fixed to broken, for instance.

Video camera is mostly fixed on nightlies that are labelled EXPERIMENTAL in the file name, broken in the ones that do not. I say "mostly" because the output was good most the time, but 1 time out of maybe the 10 tries I made, the output was still garbled. Again, this is something that may get ironed out very soon. The dev mentioned they just got a open source version of the phone's camera software, and he sounded very optimistic this would help remedy the camera bugs.

Everyone's requirements for what makes a daily driver is different. But for me, there are enough issues to wait longer for the bugs to be worked out. No knock on the devs at all. Their hard work is totally appreciated. What has been accomplished is awesome (and in such a short time). But CM10 is still being billed as in an "early state". Some early adopters will have to tolerate some bugs to have the cutting edge, that's just how it always is. For those that need a more stable product, we'll have to wait a bit.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
Yeah building on what he said, CM10 is stable enough for a daily driver (and has been for awhile) as long as you don't need your video camera. Things break here and there but as long as you pay attention to the thread then you will know what to expect from what builds. And btw the streaming audio was fixed in 8-28, used it this morning.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scales11:
Hey guys, just found this thread.

I am very interested in the one x but do not want anything to do with sense! Assuming I get a one x with 1.85 firmware or earlier, do you think there is enough development going on to get a extremely stable cm10 (or cm9) build for this phone?

It feels a little big to me and the power button could be in a better place, but I like everything else about the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] toptalent:
Besides the video camera, LTE also seems to have problems? Browsing through the thread I see people have to set a bunch of settings after every reboot for LTE to work. That can be a big issue for me.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
How is jellybean?? As rick Ross would say. Like making love to the woman of your dreams, in a room full of money out London and she screams.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gridlock489:
I love Jellybean, but more importantly I don't think I'll ever go back to a non-AOSP based ROM. The devs who work on Sense ROMs do an amazing job removing bloatware and speeding up what HTC gave us, but you can't match the speed of software that was designed from the ground up to be sleek and smooth. Plus I just enjoy the customizability of AOKP and CM10.

My personal preference is CM10, mainly because of battery life and the small tweaks that are unique to CM10 (for now). As others have stated there are some stability issues with Jellybean, but there are bugs in all software and in time they will be worked out. Make a full backup in TWRP and just try flashing CyanogenMod for a day to see if you like it. Titanium Backup Pro offers complete backups of all app data and even SMS, so I am constantly flashing new ROMs without much risk of permanent data loss.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
I don't know. LTE works for me. Noticed it when I went to work today. Btw LTE just got switched on in Wilmington, DE. I never had to change any settings, it just worked.

Edit: I remember I was on CleanROM (forget which version, but it was quite awhile ago, I think it was based on 1.85), then moved to AOKP M6, then to CM10.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kravguy:
Yep, lte has always worked for me as well (cm10 and aokp). I did come from cleanrom though (started with version 1). I switched to aokp jellybean and it's been more stable and honestly, smoother than cm was. That was back on the 8/16 version so things may have changed. Since I can't comment on the newer releases of cm, I will say that the aokp jellybean release is extremely smooth overall. As with cm, camera and video still have issues. My personal opinion though, is that neither aokp or cm are as stable, smooth, complete as cleanrom de was. They are getting close though and definitely close enough that I have no desire or need to go back (though clean de was/is a heck of a rom).

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nrod0784:
Getting better every day and tonight's build should have 100% working cameras in the nightly builds. No more experimental builds. I highly suggest cm10, haven't tried miui or aokp jb releases yet, been in cm10 for close to two weeks and can tell you it's really dd material now. Most kinks are gone, and battery life is usable even with wake locks. And with a new build everyday, only getting better constantly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sdotfitz:
Cm10 is amazing....video camera is 100% as of the latest 8/31 nightly

Lte is an issue if u did not come from a sense 4.0.3 ROM such as stock 1.85 senseless 1.1 or clean ROM 4.0.

I never have issues with lte I never go into settings to change anything.

The one gripe is battery life is not as good as it was on sense first day on cm10 is worse it gets better every charge but its maybe 80-90% wat it was on sense. I still go the whole day 15+ hours and still have 40% batt I just charge every night now no big deal its worth it tho whole experience is so much better
