I have been really excited about these rumors and I really hope they are correct. That said I see nothing in these images that suggests that phone is MS hardware and not an oem or that its even a real phone.

I am in a odd situation where I still think there is life in my lumia 800 and I would still have 6 months left in November. That said the lumia 920 makes me a little giddy, however, if I jump on it and them ms bring out a surface phone I will really kick myself esp as I have had to buy out to get one when more than likely surface phone would not be out till next year (unless this is the crack in the best kept secret ever).
[Windows Phone 8 General] Taurenking:
I highly doubt that is so longed for Surface Phone.

I hope so ! my friend ! ;)

I think it's gonna be something like ZUNE HD :rolleyes:

why microsoft wanna repeat that failures ? (maybe there is a plan)

Now if they use the same materials as the Surface...that's a buy.
[Windows Phone 8 General] iHypnos:
I really wish this rumor never existed. I'm worried I'll buy a Lumia 920 and then regret it next year when some glorious Surface phone is released.

Also what's with that guys teeny-tiny little keyboard in the 2nd picture?. That thing looks horrible to type on.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Reamer09:
What nobody has pointed out is that in the second picture you can see the arrow to the left of the apps that is absent in WP 7.8 and above.

Hey guys +=+

your right :good: , maybe surface phone is a wp7 device OR maybe they forget to hide arrow OR ... (I mean totally Unknown :eek: )

Take care of your eyes :D

This keyboard may belongs to lilliput :laugh: :laugh:
[Windows Phone 8 General] oupavoc:
This would be interesting
[Windows Phone 8 General] Tempest790:
I was trying to think how Microsoft could set itself apart by creating a surface phone. I think the current crop of WP8 seems very good although each phone has its pros and cons. But one thing would really make it unique! Make a Touch Cover style detachable landscape keyboard for the Surface phone. Since it can be made very slim and uses a magnetic connector, this would be a great option for a phones for those who want it. If not, then you have a very slim WP8 with some MS customizations. I know a lot of others have clamored for a keyboard version of WP8 since none were introduced. MS could easily fill the void and create another niche product that no one is currently making. Since a lot of software code was written for Touch Cover to work, it should be easy to adapt to a thumb version for a phone size keyboard. And allowing to to "flip" down would really make carrying the phone easier, or just detach it and use the phone by itself. If the specs are decent, I'd jump all over a phone like that.

Key points for a Surface phone (like the RT)

- make it very slim (obviously)

- 4 to 4.5 inch screen

- Bluetooth 4.0

- NFC

- Wi-Fi

- decent battery

- front and rear cameras (why not possibly license Nokia's?)

- detachable magnetic Surface Touch Cover thumb style landscape keyboard

- USB 2.0 (or maybe even 3.0)

- HDMI or video out port (really cool)(I mean we have Powerpoint on our phones, why not push that.)

- LTE

It would be very difficult to cram all that into a single phone, so some compromises would be in order, but it would bring Microsoft to the forefront in my opinion if they could make something of that order.

I wonder if someone could draw up a mockup.
[Windows Phone 8 General] SPIDER-7:
Hi++

O,yeah ! It would be great !!

but I think we'll see this phone after one year (maybe 2 or 3... or maybe never, because for now it's just about a rumor ;) )

( so let's think about powerful hardware & softwares !

what's your take on that ?
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
If they do that i will buy it on first occasion!
[Windows Phone 8 General] StevieBallz:
Given that the Touch Cover only really works when you set the Device down on a table I don't see it work too well with a phone (if you hold the keyboard in your Hands the phone tends to flip over backwards. Also Nokia's Camera techn and extreme thinness don't mix well - there is a reason why the Lumia 920 is as big as it is.

While we all would want a device that has "it all" I fear that simply won't be technically possible or economically viable.

Forgot to add what I thought about the post. I would be all over the Ms phone and tablet if RBC would develop an app for wp. That's the only thing missing for me. Actually I would probably get the HTC x. Just love the look of the phone.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
Look again, the hand drawn salivating face clearly shows something is happening down there, we just can't see it from our angle .
[Windows Phone 8 General] fatclue:
Brief history lesson. The HTC Advantage had a magnetic keyboard, and that thing was HUGE! I could never get the keyboard to fall off.
[Windows Phone 8 General] black_mamba99:
hope they will release a surface pro phone.....as hardware on mobile phones is approaching towards PC standards...(take a look at the latest android flagships with 2GB rams adn quadcore processors)
[Windows Phone 8 General] hixsonkevin:
I'd hate to burst anyones bubble, but while at the WP8 launch event I actually talked to people and on the WP team and asked if they would ever do a "surface" phone. The short answer: probably not.

The guy I was talking to said that the Surface was out of "necessity" and that MS felt the need to set the Precedent with Win8/RT. He said that they would prefer that they have OEM's do the hardware and that they would only ever do a "surface" phone only if it was necessary. ie if they didn't have a partnership with Nokia.

Long story short, MS feels it has enough OEM support for WP8 to not build their own. But if they had to, they would.
[Windows Phone 8 General] vetvito:
^ sure. Let's take their word over Everybody else, especially since they know this kind of stuff.

/sarcasm
[Windows Phone 8 General] hixsonkevin:
So you're saying that the people who actually design and build windows phone would know less about this than "everybody else"?
[Windows Phone 8 General] vetvito:
^ I'm just sure they would actually tell you what they're working on. Did they offer up any details on WP9 too?

/s
[Windows Phone 8 General] hixsonkevin:
Well I personally like hearing if something is going to happen from a person that would in fact know, rather than just a picture with a phone that could be any OEM's phone. But that's just me.
[Windows Phone 8 General] vetvito:
I doubt if anyone here took that photo seriously.
[Windows Phone 8 General] landwomble:
I'm not saying they won't do it, but all MSFT employees are getting a Surface RT. We're also getting either a 920, 820, 8x, or 8s.

If a Surface phone was imminent I'd imagine this wouldn't be the case...
[Windows Phone 8 General] SPIDER-7:
Microsoft considering 'Surface Phone,' but not this year .

Decision may hinge on success of Windows Phone 8

Microsoft won't release its own Windows Phone device this year, sources have told The Verge. Multiple insiders have confirmed there are no plans to introduce a Microsoft-branded Windows Phone device before the end of 2012, but that the company is likely considering it as a "Plan B." Microsoft officials continue issuing non-denials about a potential Surface phone. "We are big believers in our hardware partners and together we’re focused on bringing Windows Phone 8 to market with them," a spokesperson tells us.

Microsoft's initial introduction of its Surface tablets hinted at the start of Microsoft-made hardware. Although speculation has persisted about a Microsoft Surface phone, we understand recent rumors about Microsoft's own phone are the result of the company considering its options for Windows Phone in 2013. If such a plan for a device exists, which we're told is likely, then it would not debut until the beginning of 2013 at the earliest.by VERGE

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Hey guys.

Ive been making recovery zips ever since my HD2 days. But recently, they haven't been working. I usually would mount things like /system and /data with the updater-script mount but have started using busybox. Well i was successfull in using it, but now when i wanted to edit the zip to change the contents it doesnt apply the update. Like for instance, the second i open up an updater-zip using 7-Zip, it doesnt install anything. no errors come up but nothing gets installed. Like my modded market zip, if i open it up and replace it with say the stock market, then flash it. Nothing gets coppied. No system files are changed. Do i need to mount as rw in my updater script? I'll give that a try but i never recall having to have that. Or am i missing a simple annoying step? I never zipalign or sign them as i never recall ever having to. Well im up for any ideas. Thanks XDA :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
It's impossible to troubleshoot without seeing the file, but maybe this can help you? This is taken from my Superuser zip. If it doesn't help you, I need to see your script.

ui_print("");
ui_print("Superuser 3.2");

ui_print("Mounting /system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("Mounting /data...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");

ui_print("Removing old root access...");
delete("/system/bin/su");
delete("/system/xbin/su");

ui_print("Removing old superuser apps...");
delete("/system/app/Superuser.apk");
delete_recursive("/data/data/com.noshufou.android.su");
delete_recursive("/data/data/com.noshufou.android.su.elite");
delete("/system/app/eu.chainfire.supersu-1.apk");
delete("/data/eu.chainfire.supersu-1.apk");
delete_recursive("/data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu");
delete_recursive("/data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu.pro");

ui_print("Extracting archive...");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

ui_print("Setting permissions...");
set_perm(0, 0, 06755, "/system/xbin/su");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/app/Superuser.apk");

ui_print("Unmounting /data...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
ui_print("Unmounting /system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
I thought i attached it -.- sorry lol.

But here it is. its quite simple.

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");

This has never failed before
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Which update-binary are you using? Did you change it recently? Are you using TWRP? If you mount with busybox, why don't you unmount with it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Never had to. Im lazy so typing unmount("/system"); is easier. And no i am using the one ive always used never changed it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
The new TWRP update requires an updated binary, I thought? I read that on their website. And I seem to recall you using TWRP?

If you go back to using the old mount commands for the system partition, does it work?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Oh no I use cwm.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
The zip isn't being extracted at all?

It would be wise to use this command, I think: set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/app"); after you extract.

If that doesn't work, direct me to the app you are building the zip file from, and I will test it.

Edit: what are your 7zip settings?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
7 zip settings are stock. And I managed to get it working by using another zip and copying the updater-script into that zip as well as moving the files. And I have a separate zip that sets my permissions. I created that after manually trying to replace framework-Res.apk which made it reboot before I could change permission :3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Default settings worked for me: normal compression level with deflate compression. Glad you got it fixed.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Yes but I'd like to know what borked it -.-
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safsata:
Hi everyone. Today me and my friend tried NFC with our S3s. He tried to send me an apk when we touched our S3 phones, on his phone it says "tap to screen to share" etc. He tapped, after that my phone didnt receive it directly and opens the browser to download it. Also we tried to share photo but we couldnt. On the gallery, he can see a sharing option about NFC (in sharing menu, there are wifi direct, group cast, bluetooth etc.).

But on my phone i cant see an option about nfc or beam etc. Is there a problem or related with firmwares.

Note: We both have enabled S beam, android beam and nfc.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safsata:
Does not anyone have an idea about it ? :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgalvez21:
if u want to share

nfc on. meeds to be on

now u select a picture in gallery and put devices back to back. they only have to be back to back to share

if u can set settings s beam or android beam

there is no wizard because its not needed
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safsata:
Oke but for example how i send a file from "My Files (mnt/sdcard)". I want to share a file from there and there is no NFC option when i click share/send button after i choose the file (picture, video, apk file or another)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhaniGS2:
As i know you can not send apk via nfc. You can open an app and touch devices.. the other device will go direct to playstore and you can download that app. Or if you are watching something on youtube, just touch devices and the other device will go to youtube with same video.. same with browsing.. for photo just go to gallery and touch devices to share.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safsata:
I receive screenshot from my friends. Here its a option about NFC Sharing. In a translation "NFC Dokundurma" is like "NFC Touching". He sees this option so easily send files apks etc. But i cant see this option in my phone...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalehua4791:
One thing most people don't understand is that the battery must support this option nfc as some don't....it only comes into play when you change from the stock battery......just some information I came across when trying to buy an extended battery......home this helps.....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safsata:
Excuse me but i dont understand you very well. How is it related with battery?

Also i asked someone else about this option and all of them says that they cannot see this option on their phones too. Maybe this friend accidently install an app about this sharing option...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalehua4791:
as it was already stated if the battery has the chip then nfc is supported if not then you bought the wrong battery......i am speaking from experience but luckily had a friend that didnt use his nfc so we swapped batteries and he seem happy enough......

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JManekia:
So I was chilling at a local restaurant and tried to use my phone by pressing the power button. Screen came on but it froze and than it began to reboot on its own. It kept transitioning between Sprint 4GLTE screen and HTC quietly brilliant screen back and forth. That went on for about two hours and I could feel my phone getting hotter and hotter. When I came home, I searched the XDA forum for similar issue and was able to factory reset my phone by pressing power + volume down button.

My phone has never been rooted, I don't know how to since it is my first android phone. I have apps, but I am very picky about what I download in my phone. So my question is, what happened? Is this a known issue that happens or is this a sign of something bad happening with my phone? It is working so far, since factory reset, but I am a little uneasy since it happened without any reason.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Probably just didn't agree with the food... Bada cshh..

Wouldn't worry too much, sometimes those things happen out of nowhere. If it keeps happening take it into get an exchange. Doesn't happen to me. I've had 3 EVO LTE's and no boot loops like that at all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AJilka89:
Had a slightly simular issue when I first got my phone and had it in a TPU case. Noticed that for whatever reason my power button would stick. After 5 months, I think the power button is nice and used so it doesn't have the tendency to stick nearly as much.

Not 100% this is your issue but this is what my experience was early on.

Hello,

Place base don't shoot me if I am asking the same question again. I am using CM10 jelly bean Epinter. My battery used to last two days on fully charge but after rooting and installing jelly bean, its hardly last 1 day after average use.

Phone idle state is consuming 33% of battery. Here is the screenshot attached.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelorona:
Deep sleep is the ideal state of the phone, in that mode your phone is almost turn off, the battery consumption is so low.

And the frequencies, higher means more battery consumption, so everybody try to keep the phone in low frequencies
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andresrivas:
Those are the speed steps of the processor, depending on the task, it sets itself to the lowest possible.

Deep sleep is a state of very low power, is like the processor almost shut itself down to save battery... thah is the most desirable state when the phone is idle as is the mos battery saver
