Yep. Its nice to have a bunch of cutting edge options when you do have to upgrade. Nobody is forcing us to buy the latest. The sooner the SG4 comes then the sooner the SG5 comes and so fourth so when you DO feel like upgrading your SG3 you'll have better options.

What a problem is though is the manufacturers somehow feel its OK to abandon 6 month old models and suddenly you HAVE to upgrade if you want a new OS. That part really needs go change.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] EGill42:
Am I reading that people want an even larger screen for the S4? If so, then what would differentiate it from the Galaxy Note? As it is, I wouldn't mind if they made it a tad smaller. What interesting is that Samsung seems to be completely abandoning the 4.3" form factor. So you either get a 4" screen, or a 4.8" to 5.5" screen. It seems like making the S4 a tad smaller would make the increments in screen size a little more even.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rlatjs17:
I'm sure they can squeeze out 5" screen and keep the same size as the current S3 if they somehow shave off some bezel space.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
Yay just like motorola did with the razrs, also the note2 bezel is shorter on the sides. I would love to see a 5inch screen and a awsome res/ppi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sRDennyCrane:
I feel pretty confident that all flagship phones will have a 1080p screen (1920x1080) soon enough. Well... everyone but Apple. They seem enamored with 4:3 screen dimensions. They must think those black bars add to the experience... But back to Android, the total face will be screen except for a small area at the top for the camera, speaker, and sensors and an even smaller area at the bottom for the microphone. Since ICS, the move away from physical buttons and toward on-screen buttons began, Samsung inexplicably ignored all that... especially with the Apple-esque home button. They're simply not needed anymore.

The current S III screen size is at about my limit for size Vs carryability. The Note series and other "phablets" will have their niche, but for a lot of people, they're just too damned big to carry around. I'm sure women don't care if they're just tossing them in a purse...well, this IS 2012, so OK, some men, too. But for the rest of us, the Note just won't fit in most pockets. Hell, those hipsters with their skinny jeans are going to have an issue with the S III. And THOSE are who phone makers market to. The people who CAN'T have last week's phone.

So, anyway, you might see a TEENSY increase in the S IV footprint, but I think you'll just see a better screen taking up more of the same sized phone front.

I'm hoping the S4 will emit and pulse that destroys all nearby crapple products.

There is just no other way to put this. Our phones have 2048MB of RAM. The phone reserves 419MB of RAM for the GPU/system.

CM10 ParanoidAndroid Hackfest JB alpha builds

​

Okay guys, as promised I opened up a new thread for the PA builds.

You have to read Post 1 and Post 2 if you want to use this ROM.

If you don't have time for that, use this quick solution.

Credits first:

This ROM wouldn't exist without the great work from benee and pastime1971 on CM10 hackfest

molesarecoming & D4rKn3sSyS for creating ParanoidAndroid

Ricardo Cerqueira for getting CM9 on our phone and being a great device maintainer

Thanks to goo.im, Korumera and vadonka for hosting offers

Features:

ParanoidAndroid - control each and every dpi value and layout mode yourself on a per app basis (see post 4)

PDroid ready and included

Center Clock feature

Close all button on recent apps screen

HwaSettings included - use it to disable hwa on apps which have problems with it (e.g. to fix rotation crashs on Browser/Facebook)

Transparent Statusbar option

P990 only: automatic NITZ fix for SU660 BBs

touchkey vibrations lowered as I hate the strong default ones

Warnings:

This ROM is called hackfest for a reason, don't use it if you expect something bugfree

you will have bugs - the question is if you still prefer it over a stable ROM like CM7 / Stock

don't blame me if anything goes wrong because of this ROM - be it the missed important phonecall or an unwanted pregnancy

if you have problems do the following steps

check the known bugs section at post 2

read the the last 2-3 pages in this thread

try to search your problem

still nothing? okay, you may post about your bug now!

Attach a logcat or in case of reboots/bsods a last_kmsg (see post 3).

And provide as much information about the issue as you can.

If you fail to provide proper bugreports your post will get ignored

use link 17 to download ParanoidAndroid hackfest

Unfortunately I can't and won't promise to fix your problem

please don't ask for ETAs on releases or fixes

last but not least: let's make it a friendly thread which is about helping out each other - but without dumbass posts
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Some notes on providing proper logs:

To be on the safe side: Always provide a logcat, a radio logcat and the last_kmsg

Probably the easiest way for logcat beginners is to use Lumberjack

If it is a CM10 problem you should post your bugreport either at the Hackfest thread or if you know that your logs are helpful at the CM10 dev thread.

see here for further instructions on how to produce a good logcat[/url]

this is too complicated for you? well...

Well I'm just waiting for you to give us the green light for download.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AndroidKills:
I'm loving the cute backgrounds in the first post :)

On topic: i cant wait to try this. Tony, you never let me down with your roms.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Good stuff right here, assuming the same kernel is being used as the other JB ROM. I didn't seen mention of this in the OP.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay guys, the build is up! :)

Please provide feedback as I (as most of you know by now) only own a P990 and am a working a little in the dark for the P999.

Some important notes:

This is using the CM10 hackfest as a base - wifi does (and will) drain battery!

Disabling it whenever possible is the only workaround.

This is the only major bug at the P990. I'm not sure about the RILJ problem some(?) people have at the P999.

No UMS support yet. You can enable it in the menu, but it won't work. Planned for the next build.

(And of course the stock kernel will never support it, you have to use harshs JB kernel then).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rafase282:
Well before I beging I already know who to get lumberjack to work thanks to you. But Should I go straight for harsh kernel and then report bugs or would you rather we stay on stock kernel for now?

Edit: The website is down.

Edit2: Okay is back up but where is the rom?

Edit3: Removed by request.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Went into the goo.im irc channel and the website is back up now ;)

Delete your Edit3 please, I'm hiding the number for a reason (which you'll understand if you read the OP thoroughly).

If you're talking about UMS - I don't need logs there, I know what's missing, but thanks.

But if you run into problems I do request logs though.

Note that I won't work on the RIL, as that's too frustrating without the device, especially as I'm not really experienced with that.

djvoleur is doing that, let's hope he will succeed.

I don't care which kernel you use. My phone works best with the default kernel

(which is the one from arcee with a couple additions by benee, including the memfix dualcore zram module).

harshs kernel does work as well, so just choose the one you prefer.

If you want to use another kernel it has to use earlysuspend instead of fb_earlysuspend (ask your kernel dev).

And it should have compiled zram as a module in order to utilize the dualcore zram script.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rafase282:
I only know of the harsh one besides this one.

I guess I just have to reconfigure my dual boot setup to work with the stock kernel for now. Thanks for the rom, will flash soon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] solidsnake:
The only reason for me to abandon the hackfest was having a very hot phone, does this also carry the same problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
So strange how every p999 is different. I actually have the LG branded p999 with the brown tinted screen as opposed to the black tinted T-Mobile branded p999.

I haven't had maybe but one or two FC's since Build 1 of the Hackfest ROM. No heat, sleep of deaths, or real signal loss.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] solidsnake:
Well I just flashed the ROM, and this one's also toasty. maybe my device doesn't like this, lets see what other people report.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chipis:

If I flash stock rom through odin, it should reboot automatically right? However can I change the startup button because if the phone turns off it won't boot again unless I flash again through Odin which is a pain. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advanced guys

Watch what you synch, disable Google backup, freeze everything Samsung related, possibly disable the Google location services if you don't need it as this works constantly because of Google now.....black or dark wallpapers, die Facebook, die! Use siyah with some u/v, not that it makes a huge difference, but all in all, for best battery just try chipping away at it

1. Unnecessary post.

2. It makes very little sense and my eyes hurt trying to read it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
u can just try a cpl of modems and see which suits ur netwrk better, and improves ur signal strength also.

Modem Collection

also use 'GetRiL' app from store to match the RIL with ur modem, which is also benifitial for u:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirchichamu:
What is that? Can you explain to me? How do I do that? How do I know which modem is good for me? Need further help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erwinpiero:
There are several options of modem you can flash, which one bring best signal strenght also better battery lifetime.

But again, it depends on your carrier signal quality, if it's poor then it's useless to change modems.

As example in good condition signal reception, all modems tend to give you strong signal but maybe different battery lifetime or deeper stability maybe.

I hope it helps a little

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirchichamu:

To find best modem it's just like trial & test, then you'll get best one fit your condition.

Sometimes when we flash a modem, ril are not at the same version as modem version should be. You can made it yourself actually or find modem with already ril version synchronized inside.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erwinpiero:
The simpler way is to install GetRIL and found suitable RIL for your modem Sir, just download it and let GetRIL do the rest.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirchichamu:
Thanks erwinpiero for your help. As I mentioned in my previous post, I installed getril but it gave me a result that unknown ril found, no recommendations. I didn't change anything. I only rooted my stock rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acekay:
In getril, goto Menu - Help and click Contact. This will send an email to developer with your ril and modem details.

But since you are on stock ROM, there will be no mismatch so the issue seems to be something else.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirchichamu:
Thanks for replying.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
Follow these instructions and you will have a matching LPX Modem and RIL.

I did this on my phone last week and got much better battery, it's very simple :)

1. Download attached ZIP file

2. Boot into Recovery Mode (Hold Volume UP + Home Button + Power Button)

3. Select "Install ZIP from SD card"

4. Select "Choose ZIP from Internal SD Card" (your file should be in download folder on Internal SD)

5. Select "download folder"

6 Select "ModemRIL_XXLPX.zip"

7 Select "YES"

Install will now proceed and you will have matching RIL and Modem LPX

:)
