This is the best feature...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] proof2006:
Pixel density is lower but gs3 is pentile I believe. This has some hybrid pixel arrangement. Though, I never saw a gs3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
Yes the arrangement is PenTile, so in theory it should look similar. But I was just wondering if it also appeared the same in person
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mhoepfin:
Thought it would be the screen, but it is actually the battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] zack2491:
The Note 2's screen is NOT PenTile
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
Right that's what I meant...the GSIII is PenTile, thanks for clearing that up. After I posted it I was thinking about editing it, but I was tired...lol

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wanderr:
Honestly I think I'm still in partial shock that I'm walking around with a Quad Core in my pocket. There's something ridiculous about that... also the display and once Sprint LTE kicks in in SF, I'm going to be lording it over my colleagues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
Yes i can't wait for LTE down here in Riverside. Supposedly it's going active in April/May. Do you know if SF is part of LAs release schedule?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] emeraldayotte:
Battery life, screen and the looks from everyone when they compare their iphone to this beast
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cal3thousand:
Best feature this phone has is Android. Hands Down.

Slap a giant screen on an iPhone and it still is tied to iOS. Can't fix that one.

But on the serious side, the best feature to me, is the marriage of a Large screen and the extra sensitive S Pen. The large screen is great, but anyone can do a large screen. And an S Pen is great too, but it would be crap on a screen any smaller than 5" or so. Can you even imagine trying to use an S Pen on a screen the size of iPhone?

Everything else that Sammy did to make the S Pen and Screen marriage work well is important too, as without all the other pieces, this phone would leave something to complain about.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itchiee:
Awesome screen, awesome battery, so much horsepower and gps that really works (coming from ET4G that never locked)...

This is the best phone I've owned.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wanderr:
No idea unfortunately... I think SF is going to be a slow deployment though. Doubt Sprint will risk burdening a popular city with a crappy upgrade.

If you are an Android Developer can you share your experience about android development? How do you start in Android? What is the first application you had done... thanks!

Greetings onebluemidnight,

You should learn how to program in java, their is great tutorials on the web and maybe on xda,

Then start off with the android hello world tutorial.

:)Good luck

Thanks for your response mate! :)

I don't have problem with java because i used java during my college which is 2 years ago and i am a PHP programmer now :)

I am using Eclipse with ADT plugin and the great moment for me is that it is like a cakephp (PHP MVC Framework) structure whereas it has a Model->View->Controller

and i am done also with hello world tutorial :)

Hi there,

I am not a big android developer, just wrote 2 simple apps so far. I started learning Java then read an android development book. It took me about 1-2 months for the whole thing. I basically make a simple java number guessing game (the system generates a number and the user tries to match it, higher or lower) and wanted to port it to Android. It turned out to be a little more complicated than I expected since Android was much more object driven than my previous experience taught me.

You can look up my app on the market here :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danielsarfati.NumberGuessing

I found the "Hello World" app was much to basic to teach me anything, other than getting the whole SDK and dev environment up and running.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
Is there a device yet that exists that plugs into the TV that will let you use this? Or is this a tech that's not in use yet until the nexus 4? My 2 Google TVs suck and I'm about to give up hope on the platform...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emc523:
I just ordered a Netgear NeoTV 300 which is supposed to work with Miracast and WiDi. I can't confirm until I have both it and the phone, but it wasn't too expensive and it seems like a cool gadget.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springy:
Is there a dongle you can buy?? Was trying to find it but can't find it
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emc523:
I can't see this technology being put into a USB dongle. If it streams HD video and audio, I think it would require a HDMI connection. With the added need for WiFi connectivity, I don't see how that can all be supported in a dongle unless it's built into the TV already and the dongle is just for WiFi.

I could be mistaken, but I think all the components would need a full router-sized receiver.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
Look into this thread for dongle/cable link up.

NeoTV300 doesn't have WiDi.

I want to use WiDi to stream on my old HDTV with external harddrive to link to HDTV without going through wifi router. Netgear NeoTV Max has usb port on the side. In the specs it shows possible. I'm wondering does it work well with external harddrive to see on HDTV over WiDi?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emc523:
Oh, sorry, I meant NTV300SL not NTV300. I didn't realize the entry level units had the same model number.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcls:
Does anyone know if a PS3 will support it? Or perhaps a Vizio Smart TV? (I have less hope for the latter, but I have a feeling I might be in luck with the PS3.)

Tapatalk² from my Optimus V
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
PS3 doesn't have WiDi building. So it won't work for PS3 to TV. You need a device that supported WiDi and a TV that can received it. Both ends have to be WiDi compatible. That depends on if Vizio Smart TV have WiDi build-in. Otherwise you'll have to go with the boxes. I list some from the above post.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apzalo:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/intel-wireless-display.html

According to this site, PS3 does have WiDi built in.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
Intel properly offered for Sony to license WiDi but they didn't put it in their newer slim model. The older slim one doesn't have it too.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biggiestuff:
intel widi DLNA works on PS3. I've been trying to connect my laptop to the freaking PTV3000 but i've had no luck but my PS3 can see the laptop intel widi DLNA and it actually works with 1080p mkvs over wireless though you can tell the quality of the stream is less than optimal but it's still solid.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
Aw, so that explained why they put WiDi supported PS3 in a way. I was replying to just WiDi build into PS3 direct without going through DLNA which still work but limited on files formats and quality since it's going through home network. I am planning to do this setup. Android now supported alot of video formats accept 10bit (with artifacts).

N4>NeoTV MAX>external harddrive>HDTV (without using wifi/home network)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apzalo:
So do I.

From what I have read it shows up on the PS3 as a media server and once connected begins screen mirroring until you switch it to an extended desktop. I can't test this right now because I only have macs, but I assume android would only be using the screen mirroring function anyway.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
PS3 Media server is DLNA. Look at the picture at far right, apparently macs can do it too.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apzalo:
Media Servers are different from Miracast. I was talking about how the PS3 interprets the Miracast signal. I have a Media Server set up already, but I do not have a Miracast or Intel WiDi source to test on the PS3 since they are incompatible with macs.

I do not care if the phone will directly connect to the PS3 or through my wireless network. My concern is if the video will get from my phone to tv. It seems like I already own all the needed components (besides the N4 coming next week) to make this work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt.PP:
We'll see when you guys report back using N4 stream through WiDI DLNA of PS3 how's the quality holding up. I have PS3 but it's not connecting to a network. So, I won't be doing these tests but to wait for your results.

biggiestuff claimed using Media Server/DLNA of PS3, you lost quality integrity. Though PS3 support Widi DLNA, I doubt the quality would be any better. The best way is to use WiDi of N4 straight to a Neo Max like box that's compatible with WiDi for HDTV, because all it does it mirror the images like with HDMI when connecting to a laptop to a HDTV.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greefus:
This is one of the reasons I want to get the Nexus 4.

I think I just need something like the Netgear Push2TV PTV3000

http://www.netgear.com/home/products/hometheater/media-players/PTV3000.aspx

so my TV can receive the video and audio via HDMI.

Might need an app as well?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeMonkey:
I'd hold fire on the Netgear - my understanding is that their current range support the draft standard and aren't reliable as yet. I think I've seen a review by J Raphael that indicates there are issues.

EDIT: can't find the review (I've been reading a lot of them as part of my pre-Nexus buildup), but I did find this warning: http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...l-buying-pre-compliant-miracast-adapters.html
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RsOnAndroid:
Okay, so NTV300SL supports WiDi.. but does it also support Miracast? The tech is different, and I don't know if its worth investing $60 in PTV300 when NTV300SL has the same capabilties (assuming it supports miracast)

By default there is no option in stock ROM's and to do those u hav to edit Settings.apk and the files to be modded are

/res/xml/device_info_settings.xml

res/values/strings.xml

There will be someone who can probably answer your question. Just gotta give a good bit more time. Often a question won't get answered for 12hrs or more. Just depends on when the right person comes across it.

I could try to help but I don't use hotspot/tethering so I'm nit always yp to soeed on what's working and what's not. Plus I haven't tried wicked in quite a while. What are these other mmethods you've tried? Have you checked similar roms to see what works there?

Did you ask in the rom thread? What did they say?

The more info you provide, the better chance you have of getting help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] madunix:
i am shocked to see not many people are having these issues.. i asked in the rom thread, they told me there are apps in the market, no ****.. i tried insecure kernels, i downloaded some app to backup, create etc.. installed a init.d file, i tried several, i can't remember off of the top of my head. but none worked. any help would be appreciate guys, thank you.

I use WiFi Tether.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] photolarry:
Method That Works

I kept twisting my mohawk trying to figure out this issue. How on earth did TMO know that I was tethering or not? Well I dug and finally found the article that helped me understand the files you must edit to get it working so that stupid upsell page does not come up any more. I did hear the idea of "fooling" by altering the browser to be Android Agent but did not like that idea at all. So here is what worked for me:

You must do this on a rooted phone and understand how to modify system files in the directory /system or this solution is NOT for you:

Source file:

/system/csc/customer.xml

Modify the following:

<Editable>yes</Editable> (from no)

<APN>epc.tmobile.com</APN> (from pcweb.tmobile.com)

<Profile>

<NetworkName>T-Mobile</NetworkName>

<Editable>yes</Editable>

<EnableStatus>enable</EnableStatus>

<ProfileName>T-Mobile Tethering</ProfileName>

<Auth>none</Auth>

<Bearer>ps</Bearer>

<Protocol>http</Protocol>

<Proxy>

<EnableFlag>off</EnableFlag>

</Proxy>

<PSparam>

<APN>epc.tmobile.com</APN>

</PSparam>

</Profile>

Modify your customer.xml and feature.xml

delete this line from feature.xml (this hides the APNs from view)

<CscFeature_Setting_HideApnList>pcweb.tmobile.co m</CscFeature_Setting_HideApnList>

change customer.xml as above.

Also depending on the ROM you are using, make sure to remove /system/app/TetheringProvision.apk (or rename to xxx if you prefer)

Reboot. Now you should be able to go into Mobile Hotspot, configure it, and use it just fine without any of those TMO up-sell pages coming up every time you want to view a website.

My phone is rooted now and few friends here gave me suggestions of siyah and some...i want to know if I can directly flash the rom from stock recovery mode..i downloaded ROM manager, but it only has clockwork mode and cyanogen i guess.. can i do that using siya?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
You need CWRecovery on your phone (sounds like you used a root method that didn't involve using a kernel with CWM if you only have stock recovery). Best way to get it is to flash a kernel that has it built in - Siyah, Dorimanx, etc, etc. There's a number of them; search the development sections of the board. Once you've got CWM on, you'll be able to flash any rom you want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAXTREME:
Siyah is a kernel, not a ROM. And no, you cannot flash a custom ROM from stock recovery. Search for rachmat3's rooting method and use that. Or flash the tar version of siyah or dorimanx via Odin.

ROM manager seems to have some issues with the S2. try to avoid using it as far as possible.

See which ROM you want to use. If it has the new Mali drivers use dorimanx 7.4 else use siyah 4.1.5
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
Siyah is a kernel developed by gokhanmoral. ROM on the other hand is also called firmware, you can flash them both in clockworkmod recovery, but cannot be done in stock recovery.

As for ROM manager, I've seen people brick their phone using it, so just stick to flashing clockworkmod recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
Don't use rom manager, unless you want an expensive brick.

And Rootbox with dorimax is a good combination you can check out
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronak123456:
Thnx for faster replies guys..i wont use rom manager but ive 2 times bricked my phone is because i tried to root my phone using cf root and using insecure kernal..i got stuck at triangle and it does not load..so wanted to confirm if its k..

Also as now i have root acess, what type of apps can i use like i want performance and graphics
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guysoft:
If you are using siyah kernel you can tweak the GPU steps and overclock your CPU using an app called ExTweaks. But note you are not going to get any serious performance boost, your machine tends to be what you have.
