[HTC Amaze 4G] Diogenes5:
I got the amaze mid summer. It, the galaxy sii, and the blazewere the only phones that had the right features and price at the time.

The blaze felt too much like my iphone 3gs and had a mediocre camera so I passed. The galaxy sii felt too blocky iand plasticy in my hand and had a lower resolution display than the amaze so i went with the amaze. I'm of mixed feelings on the amaze. It takes great pictures, has a camera button, has a good form factor, has micro sd, has a good slcd screen (no pentile please) and has a removable battery. However the rom development is mediocre and it still has middling battery life for me even with the faux kernel and speed rom 7.5.

The battery life is a big deal to me. If the form factor were better I would buy a mungen battery for it but the amaze is already bulky.

I am waiting to see if the next google phone has a micro sd slot or if htc will release an amaze successor that fixes its issues. Otherwise, I'll stay with the amaze for now. 90% there is better than most phones
[HTC Amaze 4G] Vonrottes:
I have not found anything I "don't" like about it.

Other than the HORRIBLE battery life *new battery will probably fix my issues*

other than that it's just the "useless" NFC due to no GW support =/
[HTC Amaze 4G] jvx333:
For the people with bad battery, try the anker battery. Since I bought mine the phone has been much better.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
The amaze is okay but I'm stuck with this phone to the battery is horrible the only time I get good battery life is if I have 4g off during my work day. HTC sense is garbage. And I hate how HTC made this phone with the capacitive touch screen light bleed into the screen and the only way to get rid of it is if u root. Really HTC -__-? I can't wait to get another phone lol never again HTC I'm going back to Sammy. I wanted to try out htc cuz I heard they were nice I picked up my amaze in Feb and I got the wrong phone unfortunately lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] dev_up_10:
I recently got my Amaze off ebay for a good price into mint condition:) I'm coming from my Mytouch 4G I just wanted a bigger phone the Mytouch was feeling to small for me.

PROS

I love HTC build quality even from the N1 the polished aluminum and smooth finish is real classy lol. The phone works great and feels awesome.

The screen is pretty good as well much better resolution over my previous phones.

CONS

Battery life is terrible even before I rooted it and thru on a romper.

Camera is good but pics look a little muddy sometimes.

I wish HTC would've officially updated this still great phone with Sense 4.0

I overall love the phone ill stick to this until HTC releases a phone that will keep me satisfied for another year or two.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kusso92:
Also for the people who think that the battery is terrible, try out using Speedrom 7.5/7.6, it has the best battery life on the phone with this rom. Believe me it really does...
[HTC Amaze 4G] rasstar:
I bought a Galaxy S III and returned it because I prefer the Amaze. HTC sense is really good and I can tether with the phone very easy. All I had to do is change the APN. I think the HTC build quality is great so my next phone will be from them.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
i love the amaze because its the only device with a 100% Stable Speed Rom :3
[HTC Amaze 4G] mcaslan:
Design Camera Buttons and weight

I love the overall design, the removable battery etc but most certainly my favorite aspect is the camera buttons.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
Yeah speed rom and energy rom make this phone awesome

I'm disappointed about it battery life and software supports.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cuppeerr:
Hey guys just a heads up, i've heard many people complaining about a Sign-in error for on our phones. Just throwing this out there as it doesnt seem to be rom specific. I'm getting it running venom rom, I saw someone on cm10 getting it, and lastly my galaxy tab 2 has the error and whenever I try to sign it it just gives me a server error... So yeah, just a heads up(:

Also it seems that I can still access gmail and other google related things....

I'm stock and rooted T-Mobile GS3.

Apparently I have been having trouble since this morning with connecting to my google account. It has been saying that I can't sign into my gmail account. I am on Paranoid Android build on Sep 2. It was working before, I tried a reboot but nothing has worked. Should I just update Paranoid Android or is there something else I can do?

I'm on CM10 and I have this issue, too. Is this across most/all devices or only a select few?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I'm getting the same error on synergy r73, my google services work fine but its telling me that i'm having issues signing in. Even tried changing passwords to try and trick it into thinking it was syncing fine but still pops up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rash_Pro:
Yes, same here

It seems its a global thing, I too get the error on my Galaxy SII with CM10
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Might be a bad route somewhere, because I've been logged in all day from home and then from my phone.

EDIT: Seeing later posts, I don't have or use Google Now - this is a stock, unrooted phone.

im not getting it on my GS3... maybe only some people are?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jeffyh:
Ive been having this problem too. Im running stock rooted 66. All my normal Google apps work fine and my options in account sync across the board. The issue, with my device at least seems to be the google "now" search i flashed to my phone. Trying to get to that and see my cards initiates that error.

Did a little googling and the gnex users are having problems too. It seems like its connected to the google maps update. Google said they were changing some stuff to have sync across devices like when you search on your comp, the search history will show up on your phone. Im guessing google search card trying to pull maps is the issue for me? Can anyone confirm if you also have google now and having these issues because of it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Crazycow73:
I wonder what is causing it? Especially if it is happening on multiple devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] werdna87:
i dont have google now... could that be the issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aclos09:
I'm getting it too, everything syncs fine except for Google Now

Have cappy1897 with ICS 4.0.4 cyanogenmod 9 nightly. Haven't done any nightlys. Worked fine for about a month then started to randomly reboot. Everything else works. What can I do to fix this?! Will I have to flash the kernal again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1batt1:
Have you done any sort of overclocking recently? I don't know that I've ever ran a cm9 rom but given that you have run it for a month without problems then it just started I have to assume it's something that you've changed yourself. Typically on roms that I've used and tried to overclock sometimes it will run smoothly for a while and then start rebooting at random and sometimes it will start rebooting immediately after the change.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gramme66:
Thanks for the response. Actually my husband and I have IDENTICAL phones. I do the flashing and keep them running. He is 83 and just wants ti olay smile. It is his phone eith the problem. I asked him if he installed anything or made any changes and he said no. When I read him you response he said he thinks he ovetclocked his phone. He is checking it out noe. Thanks a bunch I'm sure it is something he has done.

I have been running CyanogenMod 9.0.0 stable on my i897 for 1 1/2 months with no problems. I tried CM 9.1.1 stable, but the menu popped up randomly and the phone vibrated while it was laying untouched. So, I went back to CM 9.0.0.

NO CM10 ALPHA 4 SUPPORT YET

Hi XDA members and fellow Galaxy SL users:

My name is Ooi Kai Sheng, and I'm a 8th grade student, and currently attending schools everyday. :) A little while ago, I started working on the current 2.6.35.7 kernel (Released by Samsung) for our device. As some of you know, our device doesn't have a fully stable CM9/10 yet due to the lack of some components such as DSSCOMP and ION in our kernel. Therefore, me and Adi_Pat(a.k.a Aditya Patange) have started the work of backporting them from the OMAPZOOM 3.0 kernel. Our current progress is at a state that we have to backport some parts related to memblock in order for the ION memory allocation functions to work.

THIS KERNEL IS BASED ON SAMSUNG & dhiru1602's GitHub Jellybean Source Code. So it is COMPATIBLE ONLY WITH SAMSUNG GALAXYSL (a.k.a. i9003) JB/CM10 Builds.

Installation Instructions:

Here's a step by step instruction to install this kernel:

1. Download the file from below (via phone directly or to a PC).

2. Copy the downloaded zip file to somewhere in /sdcard.

3. Reboot into CWM Recovery.

4. On the selection menu, select "install zip from sdcard', followed by"choose zip from sdcard".

5. Navigate to the path where the file is stored.

6. Select the file, select yes in the confirmation screen.

7. Reboot your phone.

TO DOs:

Backport the ION memory allocation functions into current 2.6.35.7 kernel.

Changelog:

See 2nd Post.

Features:

See 2nd Post.

For Kernel Devs/ KANGers/ Developers etc:

Just a statement regarding kernel source: The Kernel Source is of course covered under GPL version 2. Free software does NOT mean no work or time was spent working on it. I have donated a large sum of my free time to this kernel. If you want to include my kernel in your project or use my source code, please mention it in your post, give proper credits and a link to this thread. Also, please send me a github pull request or PM whenever you find bugs or think you can help improve my kernel further. This way the entire community will truly benefit from the spirit of open source. Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kay_kiat88:
Nice. No obligations but can I request you to make a version that's compatible with MIUI since the MIUI I linked is based on Dhiru's CM10 Alpha 1? Tried flashing this on the latest MIUI but I got a bootloop.

HW Composer

Sorry if you take this as a noob question, but does this kernel include the experimental HW composer features that dhiru introduced in the experimental alpha 12 of cm9? Some people reported them as working. Also could you please list all the governors that you have included in this kernel.

Thanks.

thanks for the kernel, good work,

it is smooth and can feel the the difference of speed,

but device gets too hot I had to get back to 1ghz

You must edit calculator.apk in system/app.

Decompile it with apk manager or whatever you like to use and edit its resources and recompile it.

You could flash a custom rom that allows you to modify the dim brightness level.

If you are in the navigation app there is a setting to turn the dimming off. If you are just in the maps app there is no setting. Also, if you use the car dock and have it plugged in to the power supply it will not dim.
