Let's face it android music or whatever application android offers isn't nearly comparable to ios counterpart, in fact I always found my ipod more appealing for the music because even double twist was worse.

So, it is possible to create or port ios music app?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] j3tz3:
if ou know how to code, it should be easy. its not possible to port any ios apps because its totally different os. the only possibility is to theme a music app or code a new app.

but why in the world do you want to change to ios? android is as good as it gets. ALSO i just remembered. i did a port on joyos and the joyos music player was really close to ios music player. you can download the port and copy the music player apk and move it to your phone.

those are the only possibilities that i can think of....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mikness360:
ok thanks I think I'll give it a shot.

anyway it's that ios feels better when it comes to play music,it's not that the interface makes it easier to search for songs,the white background etc etc.

there's too much black in android

As pointed out, comparison charts below have some mistakes:

Good:

. MicroSD expansion.

. Higher density displays.

. Nk9 cheaper than KF HD (16GB: $269 vs 299; 32GB: $299 vs 369)

. No ads (unlike KF HD).

. AC charger included (unlike KF HD).

. Nk7 uses 1.3GHz OMAP 4470 (KF 7HD uses 4460).

Bad:

. No USB; proprietary charging/data port (HDMI adapter available).

. No camera, no NFC, probably no GPS.

. No dual-band wifi, MIMO antenna (unlike KF HD).

. HDMI adapter is $39.

. Single speaker (Nk9); one-sided speakers (Nk7 in landscape).

. Most likely locked.

. Smaller B&N ecosystem, if that matters to XDA peeps.

Misc:

. Bluetooth is apparently available.

. Nk7 has 4050mAh batt; Nk9 has 6000mAh batt.

. Nk7 16GB pricing is same as KF 7HD, if accounting for KF's $10 charger + $15 ad opt-out

. Nk7's two-tone bezel makes it look like a kiddie tablet.

. I like Nk9's 1.5 aspect, which is more suitable for reading than the typical 1.6.

IMO, Nexus7 still wins the 7" category for overall functionality.

For mainstream users, KFHD 8.9 probably wins the 9" category with Amazon's larger ecosystem. For XDA users, it'll depend on which gets unlocked/ROM'ed first. Nook's higher-res display and the SD expansion are positives.

The 9" Nook HD+ clearly has the best bang/buck of the line-up, and indeed for the entire "value" bracket. At $269 for the 16GB, it's only $40 more than the Nook HD, and $20 more than the Nexus 7 16GB. The 3:2 aspect makes it a great full-size reader for PDFs and pretty much anything else. Hopefully the Nook Tab folks can crack this beauty to run CM.
[Nexus 7 General] nygfan760:
1280 x 800, not 1800. Also, the Nook's had MicroSD's, and all but the Nexus have HDMI out (built-in or via an adapter). The Nook's also have MicroSD slots.
[Nexus 7 General] jacewt:
The 8.9 kindle hd does not start at $499, that is for the Lte one.

The Wi-Fi only starts at $299 for 32, $369 for 64. That is the fair comparison with the nook.

I wouldn't get a nook for the proprietary plug alone. Why not stick to the micro usb?

the Kindle is locked with boot verification. very hard to crack. The Nook well. It's a nook what more to say there. the Nexus 7 is open unlock able with many roms available. no comparison

[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
There are different contexts of "best device." There's the personal "best," ie what you or I like. Since all the listed devices have compromises, then it depends on the person's wants, and the ecosystem s/he is vested in. Hardware-wise, the Nooks would seem to be the best readers, KFs best at video playback, and Nexus7 best at travelling/location-based uses.

Then there's the XDA perspective of "best," ie functionality as a general-purpose device. In this context, the Nexus7 is obviously the best, at least until Nook or KF gets unlocked. Apparently, Hashcode of KF fame is leading the charge for KFHD unlock, and the crew that unlocked Nook Tablet will probably apply their experience to Nook HD. We'll see how it goes.

One complication is that all these devices have amazing short shelf lives. After only two months from its July release, Nexus7's appeal has gone from an amazing deal to only one of several good choices (we're still waiting on iPad Mini). If it takes more than a couple of months to unlock a device, then its "XDA" appeal will be minimal, once time has passed it by. To wit: Nook Tablet, which was unlocked too late to get much XDA love.

The last definition of "best" is from mainstream users, which is the only one vendors care about. Given the prevailing narrative that "ecosystem matters," then Amazon KFs should have the catbird seat, out of the three. The iPad line will still be top dog for 2012, of course.

Going by this narrative, then B&N has no shot regardless of the Nooks' quality/price, and its best chance is to partner up to bulk up its ecosystem. The partner is likely with MS, given its $300 mil check to B&N. The investment took place in late April, so was too late to affect this hardware cycle, but I fully expect WinRT-based Nooks for the next cycle. These current Nook devices should be the last on Android.

Back to the Nexus/KF/Nook compare, that both Nook and KF have 9" models starkly highlights the glaring need for a 9" or 10" full-Android tablet of comparable quality and price. At this point, there's none. I don't expect to see one for the remainder of this year.
[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
>I wouldn't get a nook for the proprietary plug alone. Why not stick to the micro usb?

Because it's a bad idea.

Having a single micro-USB port is a carryover from smartphones, since it allows charging from PCs. Tablets have a higher current requirement, so you will need to carry a charger regardless.

It's again a bad idea to have only one port for both data and charging. What happens if you want to do both?

Lastly, it's a bad idea because the micro-USB connector is flimsy, and isn't robust enough to last the length of the device's life. Phones' size constraint dictates its use, but tablets are larger devices, and will need better connectivity going forward.

The Nook HD's use of proprietary port isn't good, but it isn't necessarily bad. If the charging cable is separate from the charger, then conceivably one can use a "regular" 10W USB charger for it. The downside is that it's proprietary, but the upside is that it would be more robust than the flimsy micro-USB connector.
[Nexus 7 General] tkolev:
It's not a bad idea.

USB can charge a tablet (it will take longer but it WILL charge). Or at least it will slow the discharge if you are doing some really battery expansive operations while transferring files, which is highly unlikely and this will take short enough to allow you to disconnect once the files are transfered and connect to a proper charger. The only scenario that I can think of is while developing apps where you need the device connected to the PC for a long time.

Proprietary connector MAY be more robust than micro USB. Apple's ridiculous 40 pin connector for example is a joke compared to micro USB. For 4 years I had changed my wife's cable three times and never had to change any of my micro USB cable. I also bought a new charger for my Acer A500 because once yours breaks you can't just use any of the standard USB chargers.

I made the mistake of getting a Nook tablet, was hoping for a good dev community like the Nook colour!

I'm stuck with a tablet on an alpha version of 4.0 that will probably never make beta...and since I'm in the UK, no bugger will buy it since they never heard of it. A big mistake I won't be making again.

Hoping to get a Nexus when the wife forgets I had a tablet previously! :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] CJHolderUK:
Haha, sorry to hear that mate. Its a truly sad story. :P I'm sure your wife will understand. Also, be prepared. Once you get a Nexus device you'll refuse to use anything but a nexus device.

Stock android is the thing that seals the deal with me, however as for screens, the best screens I've seen are Sony's. My Sony Tablet S screen blows the N7s out the water, but then the Sony doesn't have pure android. :) Maybe you should get an Xperia S, especially now its an ASOP device, or will be. :) granted I don't actually know how good the screen is on the xperia s, but I heard it is good.

If recent rumors hold true, there will be no competition to Google nexus 7. Reportedly Google and Asus working on 2 new versions of Nexus 7. A thinner one which would retail for $199 and another version for $99. Anticipated release date before the end of this year. By Christmas time in anticipation of rumored Ipad mini. A Nexus 7 at $99 will kill any competition. It will be an impulse buy for most people.

GOOGLE and Asus looking to shake things up again. CNET and other major sites reporting this rumor.

Various notes:

. The Nook HDs were announced at 1AM ET, with no prior notice whatsoever. It was almost as if B&N were embarrassed to announce them. Unsure why, as new Nooks are very comparable to KFHDs. Perhaps it's the gaffe of lacking HDMI-out that KFHDs have, given the new emphasis on videos. Anyway, very strange, and doesn't bode well for Nook HDs' future support. This reinforces my view that this Nook HD gen is a placeholder iteration.

. Styling of the Nook HD+ is completely different from the HD's. The first borrowed from Nook Tablet's old look, while the second went with newer styling cues from the e-ink Nooks. The lack of styling harmony suggests development was partially ad hoc, and the 7" model was either added or revised after the 9" was done. Again, another sign that these may have a short future.

. KFHD has been out for about two weeks, and KFHD forum traffic here on XDA has been minimal, particularly in the dev forum. This suggests that XDA'ers are content with Nexus 7, although the coming 9" Nook/KF models may get a warmer reception (Nook HD+ available on Nov 1, KFHD 9 on Nov 20).

. The elephant in the room is the expected iPad Mini. Since iPod Touch is now priced at $300, I expect miniPad will be $350. And since both Nook and KF can shoehorn 1080p res into a 9" form, I expect miniPad will have a higher res than the reported 1024x768.

. Both KF/Nook 9" models will come after the reported iPad Mini launch in Oct, as well as the Win 8/RT tablets' launches on Oct 26. There'll be lots of toys vying for people's attention. WinRT tabs probably won't hit the $300-and-under bracket, but if Ballmer does the limbo and Surface RT is priced at $300 or the rumored $200, it will add considerable turbulence to the low-end.

. Back to Nexus 7. I used Goog Dashboard (http://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html) to gauge JB adoption rate, as a proxy for N7's adoption rate. The latest data (for 1.5 months of N7 sales) doesn't show a noticeable uptick in JB adoption. This suggests that while N7 sales may be good, it isn't awesome, and won't be enough by itself to carry the "open Android" banner forward. N7 sales won't get any better, with impending launches of the many competing tablets. Google needs a 9" or 10" Nexus to compete.

Doodling with finding display sizes of the various tablets, using my long-rusted math:

let C = diagonal, AR = aspect ratio

Pythagorean: C^2 = A^2 + B^2 = A^2 + AR^2 * A^2 = (AR^2 + 1) * A^2

A = ( C^2 / (AR^2 + 1) )^0.5

Same issue ?

Hi,

My friend has Galaxy S, And he has similar issue. For him phone boots till splash screen and then reboots on its own.

He was able to go to recovery mode/wipe data/cache partitions etc. He was also able to go to download mode.

But he didn't try flashing custom ROM or anything instead he gave it to Samsung service center where they told him that his Motherboard has gone for toss and need to replace complete MOBO which would cost $110 (6K INR).

Though i didnt get time to check his cell myself i guess it is because of internal SD card has gone. Because he was telling in recovery page it was showing some mount error (not sure if it was internal or external SD card). If that is the case i can try this method to run OS from external SD card :).

I have two questions here.

1] If MOBO was gone (like samsung service guy told) would it still boot at first place ? or even if it boots would it go to recovery or download mode ?

2] Where exactly Recovery image is stored ? internal SD or in some other memory ?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reganstott:
Exactly the same issue! MOBO i doubt it!

That is exactly the same situation my phone was in, exactly.

I highly doubt there was any issue with the motherboard, as I understand it the internal SD is hard wired on the MOBO which is probably why they said to replace it as one piece.

1] If MOBO was gone (like samsung service guy told) would it still boot at first place ? or even if it boots would it go to recovery or download mode ?

As above! As i understand it it would not go into either mode if MOBO was fried, doubt you would get any response at all.

2] Where exactly Recovery image is stored ? internal SD or in some other memory ?

Il get back to you on this one :)

is there another link available?

Is it possible, in order to just test it, use a 2GB SD card?

It seems to work, I only have to do a mount switch now.

The only thing is; I had the EXT4 (2GB) as first partition and FAT32 (5GB) as second, but now if I connect to my PC it sees only 2GB storage of FAT32. So I guess I have to switch them?

I'm going to try again and then do the mount switch.

Confirmed this is working, running on CyanogenMod 9.1.0 right now.

I thank you really reaally much! I almost gave up, but luckily I saw your post in time.

Hello,

I guess I have the same problem and wanted to know if you have to CORRECT links to the files

needed to do this.

thanks

p.s.

maybe a short EXTRA explanation on how you did it may help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pindagus:
Just follow the steps, in case it is still unclear here exactly what I did;

Needed

microSDcard

Step 1

1. Wipe your external SD card and create 2 partitions; first one FAT32, second one EXT4 (about 2GB). Both has to be primary (not local)

I did this with Minitool Partition Wizard

2. Insert the SD card into your phone and install firmware from point 2: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1852546

3. Install CF-Root link is also here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1852546

4. Check if phone boots right (this goes slower than normal, so just wait)

5. If phone works right do Step 2 from first post

Step 2

My phone happened to have no Play Store after the root. If so, follow this step 2

1. Install this zip: will upload this file in a minute -> I can't post outside links yet -.-

This will to the mount swap (for firmware above)

OR

2. Install a root explorer APK through ADB and edit vold.fstab like Step 2 in first post

Now your phone has to be working. If not, check the steps and try again.

Otherwise your problem is others than ours.

p.s.

If you do flash another ROM don't forget to swap mounts! (edit /system/etc/vold.fstab in zip file from ROM)

Currently on Slimbean 2.5

Hello,

First I want to thank you for the effort and time. I believe that my SGS has a very similar problem.

I try to flash it with many ROMS, uninstall the apps, but after reboot they always come back and I get TONS os FORCE CLOSES.

Can't Install new apps, so I guess the internal SD is the problem.

The thing is that my SGS is a Brazilian model I9000b (with TV) just wanted to make sure if it changes anything from the

instructions you gave me.
