[HTC One S] Alan Slade:
I'd prefer to buy a recent phone, so I can keep it for at least 3 years. And as I said before, here in Italy most of used One S are S4.

The GSIII and GNexus are too big for me. I like phones thar are pocketable and the One S is so slim that fits perfectly in my pocket, while with the GSIII I can't lift my leg...
[HTC One S] dave il barbaro:
You could try whit razr maxx...same one s screen size and resolution, but triple battery life

Sent whit HTC ONE S
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
From what you have said there, the one S sounds like your best bet. It is kind of pointless buying any devices at the minute though as we should be getting a number of new nexus devices around November as well as a few other phones by HTC etc. but they will most likely cost £400+

The only other alternatives, although not as good overall, are the GS 2 and xperia S.

The developing community should be good and going strong for at least another year and still be some activity for another year. 3 years hard to say.... most people get a new phone every year or 2 and some every few months.

Even if you did get the S3 version, the one S is still good and better than most other phones, in real world usage the biggest impact would be the battery life.

As I replied in another thread comparing against the desire S and sensation XE, the same will apply when compared to the sensation and in some areas also against the GS 2 and xperia S etc., maybe just not as much of a difference in a few things i.e. the camera quality:
[HTC One S] stragent:
Bada sucks, buy the One S!
[HTC One S] Alan Slade:
I was looking at GSII and Xperia S too, but I'd like the One S much because:

It's more powerful than the, has more resolution and it's newer than the SII.

It's more thinner than the Xperia S (though I don't know which of these two is really better).

I'd prefer to say that Samsung sucks :)

Bada 2 years ago was a pretty decent and promising OS, but Samsung forgotten it.

And the Wave has still a pretty good hardware.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
The XS isn't as powerful as the S4 one S either. The screen is 720P, although I personally think the overall quality of the screen regarding colours etc. is pretty poor (although that is just my opinion, most people love it). Battery life isn't great iirc. The camera is very good, better than the GS 2 iirc, although is it better than the one S overall, probably not, the 1080P capture will be better though. Essentially:

Pros of the S (S4 version):

- better camera overall

- much better CPU/GPU

- better build/perceived quality and IMO design/looks (subjective this)

- colours of the screen

- battery life

- better audio

- newer device and will be getting jelly bean officially before the end of the year

- IMO sense V4 is far better

Pros of XS:

- much much sharper screen

- better 1080P recording

- more internal storage

- NFC

- possibly getting JB, SE are very good with updates, however, they do take a long time to get them out
[HTC One S] Alan Slade:
I don't need a good camera on the phone, because I'm a photographer :)

As I said that I prefer the One s on the XS and GSII, and your post tell me that I've chosen right :D

For the updates, I think I'll use one of the roms on this forum (but first I must understand hot to root, install a recovery and so on lol), like the ViperOneS etc. and not the stock rom.
[HTC One S] Terminator19:
I haven't rooted my S, so can't really advise but the guide here seems to be very good and rather easy to follow:

[HTC One S] digi7:
When i bought my One S i used that tutorial to Root, install CWM and later Viper One S Rom. It's an amazing phone.

I'm not a fan of S3 version (overclock and battery don't go well together.) It's contact linking and sync capabilities i think they are better than GSIII. Fast and reliable and the tweaks make it even better.
[HTC One S] glaudrem:

I gave my wave to my gf as she does not use whatsapp. Pretty fine built phone, great hardware (even nowadays 1GHz single core 5 mpx cammera phones are launched) and smooth OS, but with no support.
[HTC One S] Alan Slade:
Good evening to all.

Finally I decided to buy a One S. It will arrive on monday.

As I said before, this will be my first Android phone, so I don't know anything about flash, bootloader, roms, kernels and so on,

I would like to try the ViperOneS rom (because everybody seems happy with it), but I don't know how to install it.

Also, is the Fusion Ultimate kernel good\necessary? Are this rom and kernel stable so I can have a good experience with this One S without problems?

Where I can find a guide to find out how to do this properly thing without bricking my phone? :fingers-crossed:

Thanks

I don't know if the kernel is good (I've never tried it), but it is not necessary to install it.
[HTC One S] qwerty warrior:
if i was you i would wait for the next nexus

when i got the One S i thought the devs would just buy it immediately but for some reason they went after the stupid One X

( OmG quad COORE is faster than DUeL :D buy buy )

just wait for the next nexus and ull keep getting faster updates than anything else

I just got an update on my kies, but no update for the phone, but I know that means there is an update coming soon:)

I was updating through the updated kies because through the phone it was going to install the lh1 modem but through Kies it must be downloading the whole firmware!
[Galaxy S III General] hero000:
It really sucks when I run kies. " your device doesn't support software upgrading via kies "

I'm running stock ROM!
[Galaxy S III General] jetbruceli:
I had to flash the UK unbranded to get mine to update through Kies
[Galaxy S III General] jayc1980:
Well kies won't update, goes through update process but stays at same version and displays update again, tried 4 times now.

So Samsung, you have forced me to use Odin, and then a custom Rom, I swear I would never have done this if kies had updated*

*I'm a terrible liar!!

[HTC Sensation] MikeDVH:
With some Sense ROMs I've flashed (Viper, being one example), my apps are automatically restored from the play store. Which is nice.

However, with the various AOSP/ AOKP/ CM ROMs I've tried (currently on Bruce's CM10, which is the balls btw), this doesn't happen?

Can anyone tell me why?

Cheers! :D
[HTC Sensation] sub0min0us:
It will automatically restore if the market versions of your rom that you're about to install is the same as your old ones. This is based on my experience that is why I always look for vending.apk of my previous rom and put it on my new rom. It always work for me that way. Don't worry if your playstore version is older it will automatically updated to the latest after your rom is installed if your connected to internet. Another solution is to backup your playstore data before installing a new rom using titanium backup or my backup root. Much easier i think...
[HTC Sensation] MikeDVH:
Thanks for that.

I use Ti Backup already, and you're right - it's very straight forward. I was just wondering why I updated from the store on some ROMs and not on others. Nice one!

I can flash zip files through recovery and perform other tasks I was doing before but I cannot back up my current Rom or restore the backup I had prior to S-off.

Did you format your sd card? The s-off process messes up your sd card, and it needs to be formatted for it to work again.

Yes. I formatted and put my backup back on it. What I don't understand is that the recovery works for all the tasks except backing up and restoring.

stock rom and root

@rubensolie/anyone who can help,

Installed rammanager etc, and the phone is pretty fast and stable. I'm waiting (as everyone i think :D) for the CMX project hopefully to deliver a stable rom, so i was thinking of going back to stock 2.2 JPU/S, and rooting to give a stable basis, getting fed up with reboots and other fc's at the moment.

Do i flash from odin through the kitchen, then root with SOC after, i take it i lose root privilages with the stock rom. How do you use SOC, never had to root, always came with rom from back in indroid days...... or can i find an update zip anywhere the same as the mini had?

Any info graytefully accepted! :fingers-crossed:

Just basing this off of my experience with the Droid Bionic - I believe if you root the phone and edit your build.prop to make GSM or WCDMA the default radio setting, and change the VZW 4G LTE string to 0, then you won't get that message anymore. Could be wrong though, and that's not exactly what the string is called, but you should be able to find it...
