Believe it or not, the 8X will get more sales than the 920 cuz of the exclusivity of the 920 as compared to the 8X. Heck, maybe even the ATIV S will get more sales. Shame on you, Nokia...
[Windows Phone 8 General] lovenokia:
a smart competitor would look at why the iPhone sells so well, rather than just drop dead and so no phone can sell better than the iphone.

Who knows. Nokia effed up and those on verizon should just get a samsung or htc, and this is coming from a hard core nokia fan. Go for it, it is the price that they pay, I can only hope that they will do better next time, or they will surprise us with a nokia lumia 922.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
forget about impressing the manufacturer with your vote if you buy with a contract.

hit both the carriers and the OEM with a1 2 punch..... buy second hand, off contract, and send the carrier and OEM an email explaining WHY they lost your sale.

as long as people sign contracts for phones, this will continue.

Once I see what dacs are in each phone then I'll decide. I stupidly bought the one x because I assumed it would have the same dac as the titans (wolfson) - wrong! Sound quality on the one x is woeful, so I'm leaning towards the ativ, because Samsung do use Wolfson dacs, Nokia uses a different brand (not sure who), so I'm not buying their devices.

If no wp8 device uses Wolfson then I'll stick to android. Oh and if you want to hear the difference in quality, go and listen to a Sammy s3 with decent headphones, it beats everything.

Guys i'm not an Apple fan at all and I think Apple sells his toys only to the mass. But this is the reality. There is the iPhone and there are all the others. They chose the only way that could lead to such a unicity: sell something for the mass even if it's rubbish. It's a marketing secret...

There's no way Windows Phone is going to come close to Android/iOS in the near future. The best they can hope for is grabbing 10-15% market share within a 2-3 year span.
[Windows Phone 8 General] forelli:
HTC 8X (flagship phone) with 16GB, no SD slot, are HTC serious? Give us at least:

32/64GB without SD slot

a decent screen of at least 4.5"

and I'll buy one.

As a flagship phone, I expect it to be the same or better than the actual flagship HTC One X. Why WP devices should be 2nd class devices? No wonder nobody wants them.

Sorry HTC, I'll pass on this one and be waiting for a true WP8 flagship phone, not a joke phone outgunned even before it goes on sale...

[Windows Phone 8 General] oupavoc:
Currently using an iphone and the Lumia 920 is far more enticing for me then the 8X.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Tomatoes8:
Stop looking at just the screen size, the HTC 8x is neither small or thin. In fact, it is HUGE for the 4.3 inch class of phones. The 4.7 inch Optimus G is probably more pocket-able than it based on thickness.

As a comparison.

HTC 8x = 132.35 x 66.2 x 10.12 mm

LG Optimus G international = 131.9 x 68.9 x 8.5 mm

In this case, the 4.7 inch phone is smaller overall.

LG went all out on the phone(impressed Google enough as well) and HTC sucks but the 8x should still be smaller than it is. That is how HUGE the 8x is and it is hardly in the running for people who prefer compact phones.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Poecifer:
Why would it be the IP5 killer when it's a bit... midrange compared to the 920?
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Cause Iphone is a mid range phone?
[Windows Phone 8 General] steve adams:
Correct. Everyone thinks the iPhone is the best phone out. By the time apple is finished developing their new phone, its already a relic. Oh, "and one more thing". The specs of the IP5, is two generations old actually. Considering my galaxy s2x is 4g.

I just got a new note, it mops the floor with the iPhone. Next up tho is the HTC 8x. I am really impressed with it. Wp8's only flaw is the lack of my rbc banking app.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GHII:
Why did they stick such a small battery in it? Im thinking of taking the leap to WP8 but Im on Verizon and the 8x is my only option. Im currently an Android user using a Galaxy Nexus with a similar sized battery and it doesn't last the day unless I don't use it. So even if I take a chance of the WP app market getting better the battery may be the killer. It sucks, there is no perfect handset: Apple has the App store and solid OS but disappointing hardware upgrades with IP5 , Google has great hardware choices but a stale OS, and WP has cool hardware & OS but no apps.
[Windows Phone 8 General] StevieBallz:
I'm not really an iPhone fan but I suggest you look at Anandtech's articles on the iPhone 5's CPU and GPU. The GPU is stronger then almost anything else put into a phone at the moment (beaten only by the Adreno 320 in the S4 Pro) and the CPU-Cores are based around the ARM15, similarily to the Krait Cores that Qualcomm designed. So it is actually a quite powerful device.

On Battery life we will have to wait and see. The Qualcomm chips are said to be quite energy efficient and Windows RT which uses the same Kernel as WP8 seems to keep it's power hunger in check quite well. Still I don't see the 8X directly as an iPhone competitor - although much more so then the much heavier Lumia 920. Still it will be the 920 for me.
[Windows Phone 8 General] TheDarkLord1997:
Please correct your facts . Krait and the A6 are not based on ARM15. They both are heavily modified chips. A6 has an ARM 7 and Krait an ARM 9.
[Windows Phone 8 General] StevieBallz:
Krait and A6 are both architecturally far more similar to the A15 then to the A9 designs and are likely to have a similar performance. The main difference from Krait, A6 and A15 from the A9 is that they are Out-of-Order designs while A9 is an In-Order architecture. But I agree that it would be best to not call it "based on" but to say Custom designed to arrive at a similar architecture as the ARM A15.

All of the above Chips are based on the ARMv7 instruction set.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GHII:
Don't get me wrong, the IP5 is blazing fast and really is a nice phone, everyone I know has one including my Wife. When I say meh hardware, I mean I used an IP4 and 4S for 2 years and I wanted a WOW change, I got a taller screen, at least give us a 4.3". I was just sad there was no NFC, wireless charging, etc...I needed a change so I went down and got a nexus to use until the WP8 and Android phones were announced and as of now it looks like Google is going to do the same thing with the Nexus phone as Apple did with IP5, if the new Nexus indeed was leaked, it looks identical to the Nexus out now, just a spec bump. Anyways, although it sucks, I make the battery work with the Nexus, I plug it in when I get home after work. I was planning on getting a 920 until I read about the ATT exclusiveness. Im hoping Microsoft wows today!

This is great chrome extension for every windows phone user. Can download app from new windows phone store.

Smart QrCode Generator Download link: bit.ly/SmartQrCode

1. Open window phone store app link

2. Click Smart Qrcode Generator Icon

3. Scan qrcode and directly download app (When scan qrcode, app detail page automatically opened in market app)

SmartQR Code generator is a Chrome browser extension which adds a right-click menu entry to chrome which will generate a QR code correctly formatted for installing apps from Marketplace, making it a simple matter to scan the code from your phone.

The process is somewhat more convenient that sending the app to your phone through marketplace or searching for the app using Marketplace on your phone.

SmartQR Code also works for the iOS App store and Google Play, and will also transfer videos being played on a page and even transfer pictures and other URLs.

If your want to say 'Thanks', Please review this extension in chrome web store

I have a bunch of different chargers and such that I want to confirm whether they are charging at the full 1A charging rate. I'm aware that the data lines must be shorted but I want to confirm that the charge is actually charging at the full rate. Is there anyway to check this via software, preferably with an unrooted S3? Testing seems to be not only tedious but inaccurate because of all the variable and non-linear rate lithium ion batteries charge. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi! Brothers and Sisters......

Good day to you from Myanmar.:fingers-crossed:

I'd like to know how to customize my arc S?

Don't want to use any custom ROM or something custom. I already tried and using the following:

1. Xperia S Live with Walkman port

2. Notification Toggle port

3. Default Themes change

4. Infinite View change

5. Onscreen button (already tried, but not work)

6. Xperia S Launcher (already tried but not using now)

So.... how can I customize or port something another great to my stock rom .587, Unlockedbootloader? Any great things left to add to my devices?

And also with stock firmware .587, my wifi signal is frequently lost especially when i enter to new address or new download even I stay beside the router. How can I fix this as Sony still don't fix that problem?

Thanks in advance for reading and your advices.

Sorry for my poor English language which makes you to fell something uncomfortable.

[Galaxy S III General] Geryatrix:
Yesterday afternoon there was a notice on my phone for an OTA update. When I tried to install the phone said "no upgrade available".

Later in the evening I connected my phone to Kies, I was again offered the upgrade, but it would not install because my battery was too low.

Having had the phone on charge overnight I tried again this morning, and the upgrade was successful.

The details are,

PDA LH3

Phone LH1

CSC LH2

As I've only just finished the update, I can't tell what the changes are, but if I find any important differences I will update this thread.

Please Note: As far as I know, this update is for 3UK only.
[Galaxy S III General] Joschi75:
Was already reported multiple times ... it's just an ICS update. Update is also showing up for other countries/providers.
[Galaxy S III General] danielk0302:
I got this update this morning , I believe it was about 57Mb. The few changes I noticed were brightness slider in the pull down notification bar and I think a bit better battery life than I normally get. A few minor tweaks I noticed were when adding something to a home screen, before the update it used to say Add from Apps, whereas now it says add from Apps and Widgets. I think I also noticed that in the battery graph, before I could refresh by tapping the left hand menu button, but now the refresh is in the top right corner. In the power menu there are 3 buttons at the bottom too. Im guessing a lot of other carriers will have this or similar update too. I lost Root in the process of updating but that didn't matter much, just a 2 minute job to re-root so it was okay.

Hopefully Official Jelly Bean will build on this good start and be even better for our great phone ;D
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
I go for unlocked phones whenever I can, so I get stock updated asap, rather than waiting for bloatware, it's the only reason.

I think only my first phone was a network locked phone, and it was a dumbphone so I didn't mind, not to mention young, about 11 or 12 at the time.

Now unlocked phones are important to me so I can get stock updates faster, unless I flash custom, then it won't matter :p

I have SGS3 on 3UK.

My Rom is IMM76D.I9300XXBLH3

How can I root/flash this.

Kies won't update says I have latest Rom (lies)

Odin doesn't detect phone.

SGS3 root tools doesn't have my firmware listed.

How do I do this?

Read loads, tried allsorts of random connection variations, still stuck.

First Samsung after 2 years with HTC Desire HD (first smartphone) which I found easy to root with 1.32 RUU and visionary+

Please help
[Galaxy S III General] skibadee:
1st, your on the latest firmware that's why kies won't update further?

2nd Close kies first or Odin won't see your phone.

3rd Get cf root and flash with Odin.
[Galaxy S III General] Jumvah:
Tried with only kies installed.

Tried with only odin installed.

Tried with either set of drivers individually installed.

I believe that the Rom is latest from 3uk, but I want to get rid of all that crap and use latest unbranded Rom.

Still does not tell me how to root with this ****ty Rom.

Quick response, thanks, but not helping get round the 3uk crap.
[Galaxy S III General] skibadee:
If kies can see your phone the connection/drivers is/are fine. Just close (not uninstall) kies, open Odin and it should see your phone.

Try enabling usb debug under developer options on your phone.

If you want rid of 3's crap you need to flash a stock (unbranded) rom. Kies will only find an update for whatever your running. If you have a 3 rom, you'll only get 3 updates.

You could always flash a rom with root already built in, just search for one you like the look of.
[Galaxy S III General] Jumvah:
Odin still not showing my phone.

Can I use adb like on HTC? And if so what would be the command line to flash, say, cwm or a stock Rom?

Also just realised that Odin won't help if I can't click start button anyway, darned stupid software is mostly offscreen at my max resolution.(1024*768)

Thanks again folks.

No dice. Think it must be something to do with 3uk roms.

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

Just wondering if everyone else on 3 is just happy with their phones and hasn't tried flashing or rooting their phones?
[Galaxy S III General] skibadee:
You can use adb but if your pc can't see the phone its not going to help.

I doubt very much that having a 3 phone is the problem. You need to look again at your drivers. When you plug your phone in does windows start installing a driver? Does it suceed or give an error?

What about if you enable usb debugging?

Either find the separate Samsung drivers and install them, OR run kies, choose troubleshoot connection, try plugging phone in again. Once kies can see your phone close kies *** you must close kies ***, run odin. Pull cable and plug in again. Odin should light up if it sees your phone.

Kies is a pile of crap, odin isn't. I don't understand what you mean about max resolution and not clicking start button, you mean of odins start button or Windows???
[Galaxy S III General] Jumvah:
Kies can see phone. USB debugging is enabled. Windows has Samsung drivers installed and working.

It's Odins start button I can't see (off bottom of screen)

So adb should work fine if I can have command line for it.

Once I've got cwm touch flashed I can stick a stock Samsung Rom on and root it.

If I can do that with adb will be awesome.

Thanks for all help so far, and in future.

:)
[Galaxy S III General] mossy1963:
Try downloading another copy of Odin. I had a version that would not detect my phone for some reason, tried another download source and everything fine. It was nowt to do with drivers in my case
