[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
The galaxy nexus is also a good option to switch to. The new jellybean radios are nothing short of a miracle. No data drops, crazy speeds, and great reception now. Its smoother than touchwiz especially on jellybean. New radios also improved battery a ton. They are also much more likely to exchange a defective rezound for the nexus as well.
[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
I gotta agree here. With the radio kinks worked out, I'm tempted to find the nearest nexus on craigslist. No way am I paying retail price.
[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
Definitely try. Its so worth it.
[HTC Rezound] evilstewie23:
Well I have an upgrade and I need to use it now and I'm debating nexus or gs3 ill still use my rezound but I I'm not sure which to get

Sent from my Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Milly7:
I have all three and I bet its a tough decision for you. I can say one advantage of gs3 in this situation is that you can get the best of both worlds, touchwiz or aosp. With gnex its only aosp for the most part. My only knock on gs3 is I don't like the built in email app for yahoo and such. Email sync is much better on rezound and gnex. Gs3 also gives me better battery life for my usage.
[HTC Rezound] evilstewie23:
I would easily buy the gs3 for the hardware but i love the pure aosp updates for gnex and how that version of android is built around the device. if i didnt have to use my update i would wait for the new rumored htc 1080 p phone since i love htc or wait for the new nexus at the end of the year but thats not an option.
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
I would say go with gs3 I had the nexus I didn't like it horrible signal quality and felt cheap. I still have a my Rezound and I still love it. Why do you have to use the upgrade? I'm waiting on that 1080p phone too I will definitely get that one supposedly it's rumored for Sept or Oct

[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
The signal issue is finally truly fixed in the jellybean update. You can flash the radios now. Also even with aosp on the s3 there are always weird things that function not quite right. The nexus is literally perfect in any aosp rom. It also has pretty much identical software to the gsm version. Not to mention its free at best buy mobile. Also whenever the new android version comes out the nexus will have working builds pretty much the same day. The nexus s and galaxy nexus had pretty much perfect builds the same day as IO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dri94:
I know each kernel works different but they also are optimized for different things. Which kernels are best optimjzed for intense gaming. Such as playing deadtrigger with the tegra3 graphics settings on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
Now this is just me.. the nexus runs fine either way with you try to play, what makes me say this is the no lag in N64roid when playing Zelda.

But for the best way to avoid lag? Most kernels are the same and I don't know much about the kernels.. well the advanced stuff.

But from my understanding Performance plus Overclocking usually 1800* will pretty much avoid the lag, I've played Dead Trigger with full detail and haven't lagged at 1036*.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dri94:
It lags with glados with me. But nit with regular "high" settings. Also glados lags with most games for me. All the kernels are diff tho. Most are optimized for battery as ppl complain about that the most. So its hard finding the opposite. Im trying ti find one to play the Tegra3 "ultra high" settings without such high lag
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] withbloodskies:
Try Franco or Trinity.

I've played on GLaDOS before and games ran fine.. could be ROM related too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
Yea for me it was usually ROM related
[HD2 General] microcell:
I got my phone unlocked from t-mobile and now can use AT&T SIM in it. For some reason I am not getting 3G/4G connectivity, just EDGE (2G). I had no issues on t-mobile 3G/4G network. I have been playing with APNs and nothing works to make phone switch to 3G. I remember there is a setting to select either GSM or WCDMA or both, but can't find it. Maybe there is something else that needs to be configured? Would the SIM card not support 3G network? I have Tytung ICS 4.0.4 r3.4 installed on the phone.

Just tried t-mobile SIM and getting good 3G/4G (HSPDA+) network. With AT&T SIM just EDGE.
[HD2 General] gbuscrizist:
The tmousa hd2 does not have the right antenna to get the AT&T 3G speeds. One would need the Australian hd2 in order to get 3G on AT&T.
[HD2 General] microcell:
This seems pretty f'ed up. I've been seeing signal issues on my phone, but haven't realized it's bad antenna design.

I don't get it from the technological point of view as why t-mobile picks up 3G signal, and ATT doesn't. Both use the same UMTS technology, including frequencies.

Now, can the antenna be replaced with Australian type one?

--------------------------------------------

I take it back, that T-Mobile and AT&T use the same UMTS technology for frequencies. T-mobile uses 2100Mhz, while AT&T uses 1900Mhz. This is totally f'ed up. This is not the antenna problem. It's the phone's hardware design.

Does Australian HD2 use 1900Mhz for 3G technology?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
no, not the same frequencies at all. (Its not bad antenna design, its the hsdpa bands), , t mobile uses 1700/2100 and at&t uses 850/1900.

no, its not the actual antenna, its the radio circuitry. (unless you count buying an australian hd2, take out the mainboard and put it in your t,mous,in which case its no longer a tmous, its a telstra hd2 in a tmous case.)
[HD2 General] microcell:
It is very sad news for me to not be able to use HD2 anymore. HD2 is an amazing phone. It doesn't seem worth to pay $800 for Telstra HD2. It is just ridiculous that carriers use their own frequencies (non standard) so people have to buy their phones.

I just bought Samsung Galaxy S3, AT&T version to might as well use the LTE.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcobrunello:
Hi All,

My much hated iPhone 3g is dying, and Kijiji is full of phones for sale. The Galaxy s III can be had for about $460 so I would rather wait a few months, but often times an S II goes for $250, and I have seen Bell's S II HD for that same price. Bell's Galaxy S II HD seems like a great device, however I have had the bad experiences of the Nokia N800 tablet and the HTC G1 phone, in both cases getting left behind in updates before the thing is even paid in full. I am drawn by the 1280 x 720 resolution but wonder if it is worth it. I don't mind things that are somewhat rare and different ( I drive a 20 year old VW Eurovan ) but is this a really really really rare phone? Is there only one guy building ROM's for it? Or should I stick with a I9100 or Rogers I727? Thanks everyone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Stick with GT I9100, it has an excellent developer support!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] n2theblu:
Is there no way to open an email message (stock mail client) and then swipe to the next message, and/or swipe back? I'm having to open each message, read the message, hit the back button, select the next message, rinse, repeat. Please tell me I'm missing something obvious?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
Yep. That's they way it works.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] n2theblu:
Hmm. After much deliberation, I've concluded that blows goats. I'm a bit disgruntled about the current inability to root this device and correct this, and other oversights. Bah!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] j13smiley:
I've recently found k9email...way better than the stock client.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] dezignstuff:
Agreed. I've been using k9 for a couple of years, and like it better than the stock app on Dinc4g. Easy to set up, multiple accts, leave some on the server in folders, some not. It just works.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] n2theblu:
It's been a while since I've looked at K9. Perhaps it's time to take another look. Thanks all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
I've been playing GBA RPGs for a while on this phone and am looking for some good Android-native RPGs. I was looking at the Final Fantasy ones but I am not paying $7-16 for games I already have on my DS. Any suggestions? Free preferable. I already have Battleheart.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FrameCityJackal:
The Zenioa series might be a good one for you

google (play) is your best friend

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=rpg&c=apps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
Lol, I know how to search RPG on Google Play. I obviously want people's opinions on what they like to play. Why does EVERYTHING on this forum have to be Google it or search the play store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
LOL I know! Seems like its everyone deems someone that asks a noob or lazy...

I've been looking for this too! Tried Zenonia, its kool but the 3rd and 4th are pay to play, in game unlockable for cash :/ why is it becoming a tendency?

One thing I've been searching is for a good tactical RPG like Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy Tactics, the closest thing I've found is Spectral Souls and it's $14.99 :eek: Reason I haven't bought it yet, thanks to the new 15min limit rebate, I won't know if it's really that good to keep or if I don't run into problems during the download of the extra 1.5GB of data

A good hack/slash RPG is Caligo Chaser, it's $2.99 but worth it. Good controls and decent continuous story line, played it non stop for days.

Another one is Across Age DX, it's a free trial and unlock once you finish the intro phase. The developers compare it to Zelda, but for me it's more like Wild Arms 1 gameplay. They are very similar, tools and co-op with party members. The story seems good so far and the dialog is well put together too. Haven't unlocked it yet, but I will once I clear out some minor debt...

How's Battleheart working for you? Just saw the vid and it seems really good, somewhat a rip off the old FF jobs though :/ Noticed what seemed like Paladin, monk, white mage, dark mage, etc -___-

Edit - I haven't installed any EMUs yet due to onscreen controls being uncomfortable for me, huge hands... I'm considering getting the PS3 control adapter for the phone and use that. forgot what it was and didn't bookmark the site *facepalm*
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Z a p i x:
Kemco makes several that are pretty cheap ($3~4 last I checked). Eve of Genesis and Symphony of Eternity just to name two of them. Gamevil makes one or two. I have Illusia from them. Also downloaded Inotia3 (which is free) a couple of days ago, but I really haven't touched any of them with the exception of Symphony of Eternity.

Like you I've eyed the Final Fantasy games, but I'm not paying that much. Spectral Souls has been on my list too, but again... Not paying $15 for it.

Problem with the free ones is that they're free to play, but to get anything worth getting you have to pay for it... as you know from Zenonia.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
The problem with the 15 min is you can't really judge an RPG in 15 min!!! It takes way longer, especially if they have intros/tutorials.

I haven't played Battleheart in a while but I like it......didn't really have a story though. Maybe I did and missed it.

As far as EMUs I haven't been able to gague my phone's battery life at all because I spend almost an hour a day playing Pokemon LeafGreen lmao. My coworkers think I'm nuts now. I paid the $4.99 for VGBA and I have to say it was worth every dime. Especially since I figured out how to transfer my files to the PC and trade with other EMU saves......after I finish up with Pokemon I'm probably going to play Golden Sun which I never got around to but heard is great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
That's why I've stayed away from buying a few...

Never was into Pokemon... Now Golden Sun for GBA, that I played (during my breaks from my old job lol) and still have both cartridges Golden Sun and Golden Sun Lost Age. The game has an awesome storyline and plot, the battle system is good and the Dijnns (summons) are a nice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FrameCityJackal:
Lol it's not like that. I looked for you seen all these rpgs that may look cool but they were up there in price :p

Spectral Souls is a good one though

Dungeon Hunter 3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
Just found my DS lol. Had lost it for a while. Hopefully can save some battery on my phone now, at least when it comes to the GBA stuff.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Kool! Need to see if my old GBA SP is still at my mom's... all I need is to get charger for it. Still those Golden Sun and Metroid Fusion cartriges haha Though I'm thinking of getting a used PSP, hacking it and puting in the GBA emu :D

Have you found any other good RPGs for Android?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
I'm just going to get a flash cart for my DS. Is only $20. I was thinking about buying a PSP too but I'm stick with my DS. If you can pick up a DS Lite for cheap (40-60) and a flash cart for $20 that might be a good investment......

Also, I haven't checked out any of the games suggested but am going to do that this weekend.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
I've been considering the DS and flash cart, it's dead cheap. But my better half is most likely going to get the 3DS and it can use the flash card too, but not for 3D games, yet that is.

Was goin for the psp cause of some of the RPGs and FF tactics, though there's the DS one... Idk, now you got me undecided lmao

Check out http://buy.thegameklip.com it an adapter that attaches your PS3 controler to the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
I'd get the SuperCard DSTWO for the 3DS. It's like $40 depending on where you get it from. There are cheaper ones but from what I know this is the only one that is constantly working as the 3DS firmware upgrades come in.

AND get the PSP lol. The PSP is worth it just for being able to play Final Fantasy 7-9 in my opinion.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Thanks, I'll have that in mind for when they get the 3DS.

As for me, spoke with a friend and he might be able to build a PSP from parts he has lying around, he repair them on the side. I settled on the psp :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
Lucky you. I had a PSP a while ago that I had modded but I wound up selling it because I didn't really use it at the time. I wish I had kept it. From looking on EBay/Craigslist I think people are wayyyy overpricing their 3000's.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 18th.abn:
you don't really need an adapter to use ps3 or wii controllers. They both use Bluetooth and their are neat apps for connecting them, remapping buttons ect....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Have you tried gamestop? They sometimes have refurbished available and prices vary by model.

---------- Post added at 09:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

Yes I know that :p The adater is clip that attached the ps3 to he phone, making it like a handheld console, the controller still has to connect with app via bt.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Good one! Haven't played the wii version yet, need to finish a RPG first.

This kinda derailed a bit lol originally the op was looking for Android games...

@gpgorbosjr how has your search come along, were you able to try out the suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
ETERNITY WARRIORS 2!!! it's the best damn game. It's a little unstable and has some lag but it's awesome... multiplayer menu lag is horrible. It just me who has fps drop randomly for a sec and have unresponsive game buttons in menus?

Don't ask don't tell :p FPSe is good and cheap buy it love it. Nothing wrong with a "trial" run as long as in the end you pay what you owe
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
Didn't try anything out yet. Was busy all weekend, and I picked up a Nexus 7. I got $25 credit with it for the Play Store so maybe tonight I'll start checking stuff out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
Kool, good buy! :)

I'm debating between the N7 and the Asus Infinity...might help out my sis on getting the N7 for my nieces, since it'll be better for kids and cheaper. I more likely to go with the Asus, since it can expand the storage space and larger screen. Cloud data management is not a relialable go-to thing for me due to slow Sprint speeds here and there is barely any wifi spots in my area :/

If you're into puzzle games, you should check out Spirits. It has really good graphics and it has elements from Lemmings. It's on sale for $0.99!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gpgorbosjr:
I got the N7 over a 10in. only because I'm cheap lol.

And I had just bought a bunch of those games. I was on the fence about Spirits now I'll check it out.

I'm using a ProClip in my car and it works great. This is a two part system where you buy a mount for your specific car and then a mount for the phone.

[Galaxy S III General] Electricview:
As posted i'm curious which way you tilt the phone when recording a video (or even watching a video). Does the 'home button' rest in your right hand or your left hand?
[Galaxy S III General] Riverriz:
Recording - Right. Videos - Keep switching but mainly Right hand.
[Galaxy S III General] Electricview:
When you say keep switching do you mean like during a movie, or are you talking about switching between landscape and portrait (phone like you'd normally hold it with 1 hand) ?

and p.s. there is a reason i'm asking this its not just a stupid poll :)
[Galaxy S III General] Sleepycat3:
Recording video, home button in my right hand, because I like to use my right thumb to start/stop the recording.

Watching video without headphones, I use either way.

Watching video with headphones, home button in my left hand so that there is space for the headphone plug to clear my hand (it gets in the way if you have the home button in the right hand).
[Galaxy S III General] jerdrgz:
+1 Very comfortable
[Galaxy S III General] Electricview:
Thanks guys..

Thanks for the response guys..

The reason i've been asking is that I also hold the 'home' button in my right hand when recording (i've come to find recordings are upside down if i swap it over to the left hand).. when I record like this i've noticed that the stereo mics are BACKWARDS as they record...

My example

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9RD2HN--UY

I recorded this card going from the left side of the screen to the right, but if you listen very carefully in headphones (or some of you may even notice in your speakers) the sound of the car is going from the RIGHT side to the LEFT, if you swap your headphones into the other ears, it will sound correct....

Does anyone else notice this weirdness going on? IF i flip the phone over so the home button is in my LEFT hand (but the image is upside down)( the microphones seem to be correctly placed to the left and right) .. Am i just crazy here?
[Galaxy S III General] Riverriz:
I mean switching left to right lol
[Galaxy S III General] demlasjr:

I'm pretty curious if the issue persists in Jelly Bean. Hope somebody with jelly bean will share his review about this issue.
