[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombody:
I just got my razr M after switching from a nexus s. I also have played with a GNex a lot since my brother has it. In my opinion, the size of the razr M is definitely perfect for people with small hands and wants to have a daily driver. Texting is a breeze and the web browser is fast. Of course your trading in those few extra mm of screen real estate. In terms of screen, resolution is lower but you will adjust to it within a few weeks. Camera quality isnt the best but its fine for those taking shots here and there.

In the end, think of the razr M not as a downgrade but a smaller Gnex. So you won't be blown away by anything new but you will have a thin, light and perfect to hold phone. :)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cvo515:
More or less spot on. Dropped my nexus after using the M for a couple weeks. I sold it because of what he just said.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tadgerloks:
I like the gnex more because I'm a flashaholic, and the design on it , but the RAZR m is faster, has more potential lasts longer, and is definitely more compact, the camera also is faster and the shots come out nice

It is honestly a great phone and I easily recommend it, its not all that different from the galaxy nexus, except this phone won't feel as old when contracts up :P
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonelyingorgeous:
Thank you guys for replying.

I will get the M when it comes out here. :)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jameskyt:
Nailed it!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarydecoy:
I have a gnex and RAZR m I use equally everyday.

The gnex holds a 4g signal where the m goes to 3g.

The gnex has a better camera also. My gnex is a personal phone and RAZR is business, but I usually pull the gnex out for taking pictures. I take about 20 pics a day for work.

The reason I did a razr m was size. I wanted small cause I already carry a gnex. Size wise it is great

I dont notice much speed difference, but i also dont play games either.

Just my 2 cents. Both great phones though.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidrage2010:
Late to the party, but thought I'd share my experience.

Had a GNex since release and overall it was a decent phone. Had power, good screen and thin enough. Having said that, the battery life was horrible, and radio issues caused me to drop it.

Literally... I dropped it. On accident. Cracked the screen!!

So instead of spending 100 on an insurance claim, I started researching... my wife has the RAZR MAXX, which I've always been jealous of. So after reading many, many reviews and scouring ebay/swappa for used options, I bought the RAZR M retail edition.

Only had it 3 days so far, but let me tell you... battery life is AMAZING. My GNEX had the extended battery and barely made it 9 hours before going down under 10%. I'm going on 10 hours right now and still have 77% left.

Camera isn't as good (but not much worse) and screen is smaller (lower res) but colors are sure rich. Hope this helps someone else down the road.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonelyingorgeous:
Update, I've been using the Razr M for 2 months now and one of the things I miss most from my Gnex was the HD screen and camera.

Even with my bad eyesight I can see the pixels clearly but it doesn't bother me as much as the camera. Just can't get a good picture. Argh!

On the plus side, call quality and reception is excellent. Much better than the Gnex. I love the small compact size of the M. Also, the speaker is nice and loud.

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this but the bottom of the aluminium frame's black paint is chipping. See attached photo. You can see the 3 dots clearly on the left of the phone. Tried using a black paint marker to cover them up but made it look worse.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcons:
I get a bit sick of ppl saying "I can clearly see the pixels" on this phone. Sure it's not an HD screen but I've got 20/20 vision and can't make out a pixel.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonelyingorgeous:
I know it's not a HD screen and I CAN see the pixels clearly.

Maybe your eyes are not as good as you think.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jameskyt:
Same here, I love the device, but I can very clearly make out pixels at hand to eye distance. Similar to the Nexus S
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason 907:
I have dropped mine once and I have a decent mark on my border too, doesn't really bother me too much
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nolenm04:
What's the highest temp you have seen your phone at? Mine currently is at 105° f
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheKeeperOfPie:
I have hit almost 120 F before. Not much to worry about if you're a casual user. Thermal throttle should just kick in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nolenm04:
What's thermal throttle?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
highest ive seen is a cpu temp of 109C. btw 109C = 228.2F. the devices safety shutdown is at 110C. i have a feeling that you posted a battery temp of 105F. 105F for a cpu temp is quite cool, considering the body temp averages at 98.6F.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nolenm04:
Oh damn lol I didn't know that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheKeeperOfPie:
Oh, I assumed you meant the battery temp indicator that most programs give out. I'm not sure what I've hit on my CPU, but if you hit a temperature too high, cpu or battery, thermal throttle will either scale down the frequency to cool down your processor or turn itself off/reboot if the cpu or battery hits too high of a temperature, thus saving your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nolenm04:
I use set CPU that's where I get it from
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
thats battery temp. the trinity kernel toolbox shows cpu temp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Hey guys, over in the Trinity thread we were talking about touch sounds and changing the system UI sounds. And I jokingly through out there about making Windows XP System UI Sounds for JellyBean. Well, I ended up doing it just for fun. lol.

I made an awesome package file to replace the Android system UI sounds! lol. This is just to be funny and for old times sake. But check it out. It's worth a laugh at least. haha. :cowboy:

When you install it in recovery, you must manually mount the System first for it to work properly. There's also a package to revert back to stock. lol. Enjoy!

:):D:laugh::good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] someone755:
Great!

I'll just rename them and use them on a sony xperia s!

Using a launcher with a WinXP theme, this'll be so cool! :P

Re Uploaded with errors fixed... :)

Hello all! I present to you, my 2nd attempt at ROM Modding (first on ICS)... thoughtfully named SlimCyan9.

Yeah, it is inspired by the SlimICS ROM available for SGS II.. but the OP has mentioned of no ports... :(

So i made my own! This is not in any way related to his ROM, which i have never used, because i'm not too rich! :D

I always prefer to thank some people first... as you may or may not know... And that is because im still learning stuff, esp related to compiling from source... :)

Thanks and credits:-

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] acedexplorerABL:
Instructions and Tips&Tricks

Instructions:-

FOLLOW THEM AS IT IS OTHERWISE A FAIR CHANCE OF STRUCK AT SPLASHSCREEN OR BOOTLOOP

WISE PEOPLE CREATE A NANDROID BEFORE DOING ANYTHING

If you are on ANY CM9 build by LIROKOA:- (Group 1)

Reboot to recovery, Flash Slim Cyan 9, wipe cache, reboot.

If you are on any other ROM except lirokoa's CM9:- (Group 2)

Reboot to recovery

Flash Slim Cyan 9

Flash Original apk's .zip

Wipe Data/factory reset

Reboot

Finish the setup and everything...

Reboot to recovery

Flash ROM again. NO NEED FOR A WIPE NOW

Reboot

Post Flashing, Post Booting instructions:-

Since the DPI is changed to 145 to make CM theme engine compatible with nearly all the available cm9 themes,

Phone.apk keeps on crashing, when making or receiving calls.

The only feasible fix was using the included Jellybean theme.

So, Settings>themes>Jellybean> APPLY ANYWAY...

Run terminal to bring back the status bar... YOU JUST NEED TO RUN IT, any notification in status bar will do...

USB plugged message will do too!

Oh, and once you have applied the JB theme and rebooted your phone, EVERY theme will work properly without any FC on phone.apk.

Just don’t apply the Default system theme.

If you have upgraded from cm9 build, you may want to try the Slim Cyan ringtone.

This is set as default for people of the group 2

Optional is the Ubuntu Fonts pack, of which I’m a fan of... :D Flash via recovery, if you like open source too!

These fonts suit lower density better too! Roboto looks a bit pinched.

You need to Activate S2E if moving from any ROM not using S2E...

If you were using d2ext or ungaze or anything else, I’d recommend a clean install, EVEN if you were on cm9...

How to activate S2E:-

Make sure you are running a SD card partitioned via Yannou's recovery... I can’t help more than this.

Open S2E settings, Mount as ext4, set read buffer is optional.... works for me

Reboot

Reopen S2E... Options should now be available... tick em all and reboot.

Profit

If you are having problems in getting the device booted up, then the best advice from my side is, "GTF back to stock"

If you make a nandroid of Slim Cyan... IT IS POSSIBLE THAT because of handicapped systemui.apk, the phone may end up in a boot loop.

So I suggest you to download the original apk's.zip JUST IN CASE.

Want to make Slim Cyan even closer to the smoothness of Project Butter? :D

DONT USE ANY CPU-HOGGING APPS LIKE FACEBOOK OR WHATSAPP... BEST ADVICE! :)

Settings> Developer options> Show all ANR tick> kill app back button tick

Developer options> transition animation and window animation scale to 1.5x

Performance> CPU > Governor=interactive and set on boot tick

Performance> Memory> zRam> 18% or 26% and tick Purging of assets, if not...

Apex Settings> behavior> animation style> Jellybean

Reboot to slip on your phone...

I CAN GURANTEE that in stock Slim Cyan 9 Condition, after finishing the instructions and the tips and tricks, without using any bloat apps,

(For devs, without using terminal commands or any other funny things), YOU CANNOT HANG THE PICO.PERIOD.

At least, I was not able to do it... :P

Since you say that you have Gapps included, and , that the ROM is pretty slim, I would like to install and see how "slim" it is. Upload as soon as possible.:good:

P.S: Really hope there is a lot of free space too.

I am not removing what I wrote above but, I would like to suggest you to not include G-Apps in Cyanogen. Cyanogen is meant to be open-source. also, by including gapps, you are infringing the copyright of google.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Hpsgill:
How much internal memory after installed??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] rahul003:
Display density

So, does display density of 145 mean lowering of display quality than cm9#8?

And is the bluetooth bug which was eating the battery fixed?

Would love to try out the rom.

Its amazing that a phone like HTC explorer too has such a strong dev network!

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] maazz:
thanx and no offence, but really who burnt the apollo and news&weather icon :D

---------- Post added at 06:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 PM ----------

Absolutely :D

Edit:

I booted successfully and then i installed the S2E script as you mentioned. Then i tired the extra settings you have mentioned to get closer to project butter, when i restarts i get "System UID incosistent" error :/ ... then apex launcher keeps FCing.. I had no choice but to wide data/cache in CWM recovery.

I will notify again if it happens 2nd time.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] acedexplorerABL:
HAHAHA... :D

Actually i quite agree... those are darkice apk's... apollo remains same but ginewidget is fixed when applying the theme... :)

Would be fixed in v2.

and sorry but i cant understand the gapps thing. those should be included in a ROM.

Anything else?

PS:- IT is working ABSOLUTELY fine for me and obilikas. Applied all settings as mentioned.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Adi_Pat:
What did you clear off CM that you reduced it by 2 MB ?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
Yez, A strong dev network!

The main reason why HTC is having such a strong dev network is that we have absolutely no OFFICIAL support either from HTC or from Cyanogen. Still, we are having a lot of development taking place.

Example: I recently met someone on the train with a HTC Desire S. I was meddling with my phone's recovery and installing CM 10 Build #4 by Liverpool Fan. That guy, said that they had official HTC support, but, the update size was around 400 MB or so, and it had to be installed by connecting to a PC. They (Desire S) had OFFICIAL Cyanogen Mod support too, but only until Cyanogen Mod 7. They also had ICS on the xda-developers forum, but, it was still pretty alpha, and a lot of bugs.

Hence, a phone with 600 mHz processor and a 512 MB ram and no official support from either side has much more support than a 1 GHz processor with 768 MB ram.

"Forced GPU rendering for better battery"

what?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] chrissmartin:
Doesn't that slow down games?

On Samsung galaxy R when i selected this option games slowed down
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] acedexplorerABL:
@adi_pat

Nice try dude, but GAPPS IS INCLUDED, and gapps zip + cm9 reaches around 120 MB if im not wrong. + this is just a base release...

v2 will probably be compiled from source and modded rom source too

@sakindia123

In theory, GPU will process all the images and hence CPU will work less. In Mobiles, GPU is not as hungry as the cpu, hece savings.

i was not able to get 3 days of battery on pure cm9... :)

PS:- you guys are just too high for me at the moment.

:crying:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
Thanks for trying to make a stable and effective CM9 ROM :D. Well, I don't play game, so I like "Forced GPU rendering", I'm using that tweak now on NExtGen.

Just some question :D. Is v2 just coming up? So I think I will wait to try v2 :D. You said that your ROM is fully stable, and your get great battery life on it? Could you consider making the process of installing your ROM more automatically :P?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Adi_Pat:
Thats why I asked what did you strip from CM build. [/QUOTE]
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] acedexplorerABL:
[/QUOTE]

Cheers bro! :)

yes, v2 will come but will take time, as i have to plunge into the compiled from source world.. adi_pat and sakindia123 will hopefully guide me. :)

installing the rom is simple.. see process of apocylapse for sga .. :D

atleast try it dude! @redguardsoldier

Dude, I think you should not include GApps in the ROM next time. See, Talk and Voice Search always force closed. Lckily, I ad a CM9 edition for GApps. After flashing that, it worked fine.

Thanks.

yes both are..

regarding gapps, i wont in the next build... its violation now.. :)

You are asking this becuase i report a battery life of about 5-6 days...

Its true, but the fact that i dont use my pico much is also true...

v2 has some basic changes like cam from 4.2 and just a bit more slimmed... so im confused.

+ i dont have time and i want to switch to actual compiling.

id prefer s2e over anything on roms that support it... simple easy and fast.

MiniCM9 is something from source compilation. SlimCM9 (was) as sakindia says "kangbanged" :D

SlimCM10 will be based on cm10 (if it ever happens), with a good old kangbang thrown.

My internet is too good for ROM compiling, so kernels only for me, plus im a kind of weirdo and i find GitHub a bit of a bouncer.

For the open mind person only.

Khomsn Built No.3​

I have made some modification (based on my linux experience from the beginning up to now) with CM10 to make P7500, to full phone voice call function, but there is still no voice over bluetooth yet. We have to figure it out.:confused:

MY DROPBOX TRAFFIC JAM SO USE TORRENT. PLEASE SHARE GUYS.

You can take this to test here..:cool:

***********READ Changed Log first*****************

and you have to flash modem from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1875024, or load from torrent below to be able to make a phone call.

I also have questions, if you can answer me, I may be able to enable voice over bluetooth by defualt.

If this is ok for you. I will share the modification point in the source code.

I have only weekend time to do this. So next time I will find out how to enable voice via bluetooth.

Now with usb mtp, ptp fixed

kernel base on Pershoot mixed with A2, I9103, Yoda's Kernel v2.4

CM10 synced on 8/12/12

Modified Phone app. So no more voice call mute on speaker phone when screen off.

To use voice call over bluetooth have to use BluetoothManagerICS.
