HW keyboard. period.

Con

Gorilla glass looks fine and very durable, but MS2 touch screen is very unreliable (ghost touches)

Battery life is short

with GB very slow

I have to buy a new phone soon (because MS2 is in it's last leg), and I cannot find any android phone with WH keyboard in Hungarian market, so I'd like to revive my little MS2, but I nearly gave it up :(

So, my opinion is: do not buy it. :)

Hey folks I have owned a touch pad and have wondered if it really does have gorilla glass in it. I have Googler many times but always found a yes and no answer so I thought I would finally put it too rest and ask some of you guys. Thanks.

ARTICLE: There were no creaks, groans, or wobbles anywhere on the TouchPad. Thankfully, Corning's ultra-tough Gorilla Glass continues its string of appearances from the Pre2 and Veer and is in full effect on the TouchPad

Just thought I would paste that in case anyone else has a similar question. Thanks again.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nomedias:
From what I've read, yes it is. However, I don't think the manufacturers advertise it as much now because of the unfounded notion of some people that Gorilla Glass is nigh unbreakable and/or unscratchable. So we get anecdotal accounts where the screen broke or scratched, so they conclude it can't be Gorilla Glass.

There are plenty of YouTube "tests" showing the opposite. That said, it is more damage "resistant".

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khoikn:
Gorilla Glass is advertised as "damage resistant" not unbreakable, it is glass after all.

After using my TP for about a year I can say that I haven't run into a problem with it cracking or scratching yet (knock on wood).

The glass holds well, but an impact can easily crack it--the glass is just better than using any kind of regular glass on the device.

[HTC EVO 3D] Ramonski:
Hi,

i unlocked my Evo 3d the HTCdev.com way, al working fine and in tried to flash a new rom through CWM recovery (LeeDrOiD_3D_V5.3.0)

Now my unit is staying in a bootloop, the white HTC screens pops up for a few seconds and boots throught to the LeeDrOid bootscreen, you hear the sound for a second and it reboots again.

I Already tried to flash the boot.img extracted from the LeeDrOid manually, but it stays the same.

Did i overlooked something? Did i brick my unit? I dont know...

The following numbers pop up when i boot in the bootloader:

***Unlocked****

SHOOTER-U PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.53.0007

eMMC-boot

Radio: 11.25.3504.06

What to do? Or do i have a fancy paperweight now?
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
I think its because you are trying to flash a gingerbread rom. AFAIK its not possible to boot GB on 1.53 hboot. I would suggest trying an ICS rom
[HTC EVO 3D] Ramonski:
So i installed Yoda's ICS v5.1 and now the unit only boots till the white HTC screen and reboots on and on...
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
maybe if you list the things you tried i could help you more.

factory reset and wipe cache+delvik cache before installing rom?

manually flashed boot.img?

i would suggest getting s-off to save yourself all the hassle
[HTC EVO 3D] Ramonski:
How do i install S-OFF when i cannot fully boot the unit?

Yes, i tried to install Boot.img manually through ABD, but issue still persists.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
S-off isnt something to install. I'd recommend you run an RUU and get beck to stock. After that look in the gsm development section you will find a thread for s-offing your phone. It involves the wire trick.

[HTC EVO 3D] imadork8317:
I had the very same issue, see my post here for some help http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1897719

I think your hboot is the key; if your unlocked through HTC while on a GB rom then you are limited to GB roms, if you want ICS, you need to re lock, ruu the stock ICS rom, then unlock, then install the custom ICS rom.

I'm no expert but that seemed to fix my issue, i did take the extra step and get S-off, so i truly get full control of my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] EM|NEM:
His hboot is 1.53 which means he did update to ics. Relocking his bootloader and running an RUU should get him to boot into stock rom. Then maybe he can s-off.

There are so many people with 1.53 hboot having problems with every single rom. I didnt take the ota for this exact reason. Revolutionary hboot hasnt given me trouble with any rom.

[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
I just checked the unlimited.io (JBear) website and their modified bootloader for the Evo 3D GSM on ICS is 1.53.5353 so it seems like they support the wire trick with the ICS update, but I agree that it would be better to start by flashing the ICS RUU.exe then HTC unlock and root before doing JuopunutBear.

I'll start by saying this isn't about posting highest bm results. I'm just trying to find best results in statistical form for my daily driver. But i'm not sure if this is a good practice or not. I'm running Basic with a twist, kg4 modem, and Antonx barebone. I go into voltage control, change a setting(io scheduler, and overclock) then run a bm test, take a screenshot. I did this 8 times, and picked the setting with the best results(which I found to be noop, smartassv2, 200/1300, -25} Other than battery life, would you say this is a good way of doing it? Or am I completely off base? Phone feels great, and battery lasts all day BTW, but just looking for some insight. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I think you're on the right track.

There are sort of two things to consider, as I see it, past "the phone is responsive enough for my needs"

Deep sleep time when not "in use"

Drain when in use and screen on

The first of those is probably best examined by using Better Battery Stats religiously. Probably half the nights of the week I charge my phone fully before going to bed, pull the charger, and turn off the screen. Then just leave it there. No checking your stock prices at 4 A.M. When I wake up, I immediately open Better Battery Stats and save a report (make sure you have configured it ahead of time to include everything on the list). If you're seeing more than 5-10% of time time that your phone isn't in deep sleep on CM9 or AOKP, your drain "problems" are more likely your apps or settings than the ROM.

Given that I am seeing on the order of 1% per hour average battery drain (~20 mA average over an hour) and that it comes in spurts (my email wakes the phone for 5 seconds, it goes back to sleep, my Twitter app wakes the phone for 5 seconds,...) I think you would be hard pressed to measure the current with a meter that most had access to.

Wake time, in my opinion, is dominated by screen current (hence why I wracked my brain on the auto-brightness issue and agonize over adding another step in the brightness curve that would consume more current, even if it is easier to read) and, for some users, CPU/GPU. The Android screen that shows battery usage by app is probably pretty good for this to a first order, but as far as app by app, I don't believe it (there is nothing in the device that actually measures current draw other than total from the charger cord), and certainly not for app-by-app decisions.

I think the idea of a "benchmark" of your everyday apps the way you use your phone is a good one. When I was tuning Hefe kernel I tried to use my phone the way I generally did everyday, then collected data over several days at each setting change. You're on the right track about taking several data points to try to smooth out "normal" variation.

There have been other attempts to measure power consumption, but I have some serious doubts about the methodology. For example dBm is a power measurement and requires a known impedance, which the phone certainly is not. The mentions of "logarithmic scale" support that the wrong measurement was made (mA is a linear scale on an analog meter). As a result, I find the results "interesting," but I wouldn't bank on any of them to guide decisions.

Edit -- For example, the post referenced in the previous paragraph suggests that undervolting can only have a 2% effect. However, power required to charge a capacitor goes like the square of voltage (IC "gates" look a lot like capacitors when they are working), and this quadratic behavior can be easily confirmed elsewhere. Undervolting by 5% (60 mV on 1200 mV) would then be roughly a 10% gain; undervolting by 10%, if your phone could take it, roughly a 20% gain.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Talking with Raver on irc a while back he said overclocking past 1.2 will end up hurting battery life. Im not sure if that applies to gb roms or just the ics flavors tho. But it is something to consider when using oc/uv settings. I never go past 1.2 and my voltages are -50 from top to bottom. I average 12-14 hours depending on how many phone calls I have to make.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
This is specific to the DVFS based cpufreq.

The aries kernel and the blastoff v3 (to be released... soon) use standard (non-DVFS) cpufreq.

We will see different OC/UV results with these kernels.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I'd also add that no matter how it is done, overclocking any amount will pretty likely increase CPU power consumption.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lyinelriche:
(make sure you have configured it ahead of time to include everything on the list).

Ok,

This is extremely helpful and very interesting. Thanks Jeffsf! (and Eollie and Bhundven)

I just downloaded BBS off of Play store. I'm attempting to set up and include everything on the list, but it's only letting me select one at a time ( Other, kernel wakelock, partial wakelock,alarms etc. etc.) Is this what you're referring to? I was reading through BBS devs O.P., maybe I'm missing the first time setup instructions. But I see the "getting started", and "how to" but nothing on how to select all. However "Other=Group of different indicators about what is consuming the battery. This statistic should always be checked first as it gives a good idea about the draining profile". <This quote makes me think each has to ran seperately.... True?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
They all "run" even if you don't have them selected. I looked and the current settings for what goes into the dump file are from the ICS-style settings icon near the top right, then scroll down to Dumpfile and click it. Select everything on the next screen. View attachment 1342369

One of the great things about BBS is that it primarily uses stats the kernel already collects, so it doesn't interfere much, much, if any, with what the phone would otherwise do.
