+1

When I was using my GNexus for months people were asking how I could possibly like using a phone so huge. Most of them are iPhone users minus a few that have seen the light that is Android. I seriously don't know how people can be very productive with anything smaller than 4.7" screen. Blows my mind now :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChodTheWacko:
Not long at all. I always wanted a bigger phone, and most importantly - I realized right away that I shouldn't bother trying to use it one handed.

Now that I got the phone, I wholeheartedly agree with every one of your comments :D

This screen alone is worth the purchase, let alone the beastly specs and monster battery! Thank you all for convincing me.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandam500:
In also planning on getting one! The size was the main thing kind of holding me back but this thread definetly helps :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xChris76:
What color did you get. :) I don't know if I want a gray one or white one lol.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ms.Dummbunny:
Too big? Nope nope nope. Got used to it immediately, mainly because it looked soooo much bigger in all the videos i watched.

Once i actually saw the box it came in i was like, wow! Thats perfect. So watch all the videos you can BEFORE and it won't seem too big at all...problem solved : )

I love this phone sooooooo much, it has inspired me to invent a new word: This phone is, "unputdownable.".. get Webster's on the line...lol
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Myrkin:
Not big. At all.

GNexus feels now like smth way to small.

Only one thing that annoys me, that battery cover is kinda slippery.

Sorry for the question, I really dont know what to do, there are many guides here, I want to find the easiest and safest. A friend asked me to root his Arc S, I now see its way different than on my samsung :)

First i need to unlock the bootloader and then to root? Can someone tell me the easiest way to do this? Tnx
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Pick one and choose then, as you'll just get redirected to one of them anyway.

root arc s 4.0.2.a.0.62
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolaisugly:
YOU DON'T HAVE TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER TO ROOT.

Download flashtools. Install on computer

Download ftf from general stickies( select. .42/.54) only these can be rooted

Drag and drop ftf into flashtools main screen

Put phone into flash mode(hold back key while plugging into usb port) flashtools will install Rom

Restart phone.

from settings select usb debugging( development) and unknown sources( security)

Download from doomlords thread for rooting gb file

Keep phone switched. On and connected to computer run the script and follow on screen prompts.

When done phone should be rooted.

IF BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED YOU CAN UPDATE OVER THE AIR.

ONLY DO THIS if 100% SURE BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED this will update to 2.3.4 build. 69 latest stock from Sony.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destroyedbeauty:
Why not unlock bootloader, flash custom kernel with root support, root and delete bloatware (or what you now are going to do) then flash stock kernel, relock bootloader and voila - everything fixed? ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] phixom:
Hello,

I've installed Du@lcore Rom 5.2 on my rooted xperia S with locked bootloader and ICS-stock-kernel.

The system is working fine, but I've don't get any connection to my pulse-belt with ant+.

Are the ant+ drivers a part of the rom or do I have to install extra stuff?

[HTC Sensation] lanluckez:
Hello guys.

I'm facing a "problem" since I bought my Sensation. The HTC Sensation is normally a hot phone. When you browse the internet awhile, the bottom of the phone gets warm. This may vary depending on which governor/kernel are you using. If I use badass at 1.18, no problem. If I use stock kernel at 1.18 (ondemand) phone warms, but just a little, it's comfortable yet. But when I use ondemand governor over 1,5 ghz frequencies...specifically when i use ondemand combined with a high frequency (i don't know what's the problem since Snapdragon s3 runs originally at 1,5 Ghz) my hand warms too. Could be a hardware problem or is this common to all Sensation's? Should I call to HTC technical service?

Thanks in advance ;)
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
I do believe this is common to most sensations. If I'm playing a game or something like that my device also warms up. Not hot but warm. I do think most sensation user experiences this. I would not worry. Now if the device runs so hot you can barely touch it, then that's different. But if its just getting warm, well I believe its normal. I hope this helps you and I wish you the best.

[HTC Sensation] serio22:
Yeah that's normal
[HTC Sensation] pvchip3:
It's normal..mine does the same thing
[HTC Sensation] stephen.cameron:
I hope i'm not pointing out the obvious here, but the HTC Sensation is clocked at 1.2Ghz, so the device running at 1.5Ghz will make the device warmer then expected

Also, that said, a CPU will always be able to run at faster speeds then recommended by the manufacturer, one of the biggest problems we face today with CPU's is heat dissipation, even moreso with mobile devices as it becomes increasingly difficult to deal with all that heat, you could probably get away with clocking your phone to 3.0Ghz if you were quite happy mounting a fan and heatsink to the back of your device
[HTC Sensation] roccatkone:
1.5 GHz is the standard frequency of the chip. You may look at the Sensation XE, which is clocked at 1.5 GHz and is obviously identical in construction.

I run my HTC Sensation with 1.6 GHz and "ondemand" governeur, because it feels the best for me. I can't really say, that badass is smooth, but this may be subjective.

And to answer lanluckez' question: Yes, it gets warm and especially if you use 3G and surf in the web or play some games you will find it hot. But it won't hurt your phone, unless you charge it meanwhile and are sitting in the sun.
[HTC Sensation] Repoman123:
I suppose its reassuring to know everyone experiences this but its still worrying knowing that the phone gets hot.

Personally I hate the fact that it happens as I think in comparison to other phones its a poor feature.

I once used my phone as a sat nav for a 30 minute journey and that bottom area of the phone got so hot I couldn't even keep it in my pocket anymore!
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
That seems like its getting too hot then if you can't even keep it in your pocket! It does get hot but not that hot, at least my device don't get THAT hot to where I can't keep in my pocket.. you might want to call the dealer of your device and let them know how hot It's getting and see what they have to say. They might possibly replace the device. It's worth a phone call.what your describing seems out of the normal hot. I would see what they had to say about it. Could be normal but it's worth a check. I wish you the best. Good luck. Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nameh:
Before trying JIG, try this:

Download Mod can be accessed if you pull out the battery, connect your SGS with USB cable to the PC. Do a VOL-,HOME,PWR (into the download mode) and put the battery in again (while pressing the three key combination)

Try removing your battery...then keep pressing the powere button for 30-40 seconds while battery is out.

Then connect it to usb cable and use the three button combo to go in download mode..

might help....

[HTC Rezound] siulmagic:
Kozmikkick has mailed the Rezound he promised me, so huge props to him, it should be here in a week's times. thanks to the 2 person that suported my chip in, i will use the money to buy a new battery/case/external charger, that i very much need.

Hey as you may or may not know, my Rezound's motherboard died , and so iv been without a device for couple a of weeks, iv set up a chip in page, for all those who wish to fund my new rezound, im not asking for the whole pot, but i would need atleast half of it, i can probably manage the rest of it.

If you decide to donate i will be eternally greatfull.

And yes you may have heard someone was going to gift me a used Rezound, yes iv been waiting for it ,but he hasent shipped it yet, last i heard he was really busy at work so i understand, he could still send it to me, but as i ccant be sure, iv set up the chip in page.

Again thanks you

[Droid Incredible General] riddles_xD:
Hey all,

So I just got a new phone so am going to try to convert my old DInc to an mp3 player of sorts. I recently rooted and got s-off (whew! not easy on on this device) and have CM7 installed. I really like this ROM and its battery life, but was wondering if the community has any further suggestions for extending battery life. I have installed Titanium Backup to freeze some of the apps I don't need anymore, but heard once some stuff isn't safe to freeze. Can anyone tell me if it's safe to freeze apks like messaging and camera?

Next since I'm using this as a wifi only device so I don't need the mobile data. I went to my wireless settings and disabled data, but it still seems like its trying to connect to the Verizons network and kill my battery. I found a work-around for this by turning airplane mode on and then activating my wifi, but it would be nice to find a more permanent work-around especially since I'll also be using bluetooth.

Finally, I'm happy with CM7 and its light weight, but if anyone has a suggestion for an EVEN lighter weight ROM that'll extend battery life, I'd be welcome to hearing some suggestions.

Thank you in advance, community

Does it have HDMI?:angel:

Ordered.

This is pretty cheap at this time.

You can get a class 10 on amazon for $53
[Galaxy S III Accessories] poppadoc:
Just ordered mine! $43 w/tax
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Vanquiz:
Will we really notice differences in performance between class 10 and 6 from our phone? I dont really mind the time for file transfering, but what about playing games, movie, saving video/pic to sd card, etc ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] thisiswang:
good thing is.... if you decide you want a class 10 instead you can go to a bestbuy store and return for instant credit instead of waiting a week to mail back and another 3-5 days for refund
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nerys71:
Normally I would answer that with NO.

but these phones are "fast" enough that you might. but it is VERY unlikely you will see a difference in "phone" operations YOU WILL see a dramatic difference in phone to PC to phone transfers however. especially write speeds.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] thisiswang:
i looked at a few bench marks and its a difference of 2 mb/sec which is a huge difference in some applications, but it most cases not too big of a deal

[Galaxy S III Accessories] millerd79:
From what I understand Bestbuy has these marked wrong. sandisk does not make a class 6 SanDisk Ultra microSDX card.

www.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/microsd/

I remember reading somewhere else when they had a similar deal and people were actually receiving a class 10 card.

I just ordered one...guess I will find out.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ManOnTheMoon:
had so many rewardzone certificates built up and i just decided to use them all today! Such a great deal. IM SO HAPPYYY
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nunyabiziz:
It is a class 6 and has been discontinued. The deal for the class 10 you are referring to was on Amazon.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] skusa93:
The class 10/UHS-1 you mentioned is SanDisk model number SDSDQUA-064G-A11A whereas this Best Buy deal is model SDSDQY-064G-A11A.

RadioShack has the faster one on sale for $39.99 but good luck finding one. You might be able to get Best Buy or someone else to price match the RadioShack deal though, I've checked Staples and Office Depot and although they both sell the faster card they don't carry it in store. This was on the phone though so you might have luck going into one of the stores and asking that they order you one and price match.

I was going to try visiting some local stores tomorrow, if I end up going I'll be sure to report back.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] jayrod88:
Just want to update everyone that this is indeed for a class 10 card. I went in and had them price match bby.com in store and when the class 10 card was scanned it was for the same sku. Model # on the package is: SDSDQUI-O64G-A11

Sent from my Galaxy S3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] shojus:
I am going to say that you are right on this one... I already have the class 10 64gb but I ordered another one from Best Buy cause I had a bunch of reward zone coupons to use.... Read through the reviews and you will see that a few people mention that they also got a class 10 on the last deal which was $49.99 and Staples.com has had this error on their website for ages and they have different part numbers listed so they would not price match me from Amazon a few weeks ago but I just found out that theirs is a class 10 too and they had the part numbers screwed up but the pic showed a class 10?? Anyways, the class 6 cards were discontinued quite awhile ago and that's why you don't see Amazon selling them, just the class 10. Crossing my fingers but I am sure that we are getting a class 10 on this deal even though it says otherwise.... Only time will tell though and I will have mine on Friday so I will update. ;)

SEE PIC ABOVE.... ;) I would buy one now guys if you need one.... Also, look at the pic VERY closely on the 32gb version that is also on sale stated "class 6" ;)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dbs179:
Hi all,

I'm trying to make some widget locker themes that have text in the background image. I was able to make a few with just the standard rounded corner rectangle outline that a lot of themes use and I was also able to get it to work with a black and red version of my text background. But for whatever reason, when I change the background up to be black and white, my text gets all jumbled. It gets stretched in the middle between two letters rather than the whole background stretching.

I have to be doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what. I've follow both of the tutorials and understand have about five or six different themes that work, but for whatever reason this one with text is kicking my butt. Anybody else ever run into this?

Thanks,

Dave
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dbs179:
Well,

I've made some progress with this. I messed around with the background image and found that the single black pixel placed at the top of the image is where widget locker stretches the image to fit the screen. My temporary solution was to off set the pixel to the left side of my text. The only side effect is that now my text isn't centered as I wanted it. Instead is now on the right side of my screen. It looks ok with the lock screen I am running, but I don't understand why it works with one background (being center) and not the other.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

Galaxy S 4G Android 4.0.4 on CyanogenMod 9. Even if all Accounts & Sync options are are disabled, as soon as you try to add a new contact, you only have two options: Add new account or OK [to synchronize with Google servers.] If you Remove Google account from Sync settings - all your contacts on phone are deleted! What happened to phone-only contact storage without synching? It appears to be only available if you remove all accounts from phone.

Of course the work around is to export contacts to SD Card, remove account which deletes everything, then import from SD Card and *only then* can you add without synchronizing.

Can this be done without removing your Google account, just adding contacts to phone-only and not use synchronization, just use Google account for Google Play store?
