Now its the Droid DNA :P
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idividebyzero:
Honestly I wish it had OLED, pentile or not. Im not very impressed by the blacks on this phone, and once it gets dark the screen doesnt look nearly as good as AMOLED, I would say my old low res galaxy s pentile AMOLED looks better after the sun goes down. Its also too desaturated for me, which is a frequent review complaint, theres no punch.

Most people seem to prefer IPS screens over pentile AMOLED but the blacks suck so bad in comparison I'll take deep blacks over jaggy text that you cant really see unless its right up to your face.

imo: blacks>>>>>>>>>every other aspect of a display
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonDizzurp:
the only benefits of PenTile matrix AMOLED screens:

- black is extremely black

- maybe save an unnoticeable amount of battery

the only benefits of RGB matrix AMOLED screens:

- black is extremely black

- colours are vibrant in a cartoony way

- you dont notice pixelation, texts are crisp

- maybe save an unnoticeable amount of battery

benefits of RGB matrix LCD IPS screens:

- extreme viewing angles

- vibrant and realistic colours

- white is white

- you dont notice pixelation, texts are crisp

- colours dont fade

and since a lot of AMOLED uses PenTile, your options are between a ****ty amoled or an amazing LCD
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnnorth:
I've got the HOX and N4. I think the One x still has the best display - the colours are better and it just looks so fluid with the way the glass is curved. The N4 isn't far off though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbrucemtl:
My opinion if you want...

HD AMOLED screens are amazing... I was very disappointed to learn Nexus 4 was not using it this time.

If you did not own one before you might not miss it... but the contrast is sooooo much better then the kinda blacks you get on an LCD

Plus the technology is amazing... organic material that emits vivid colored light... vs... just white light shining trough color filters like LCD... this is a very old concept.

And you can only notice pentile under a microscope with HD screens
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LucasMac:
I know that everyone has different taste in screens, so you really have to look at it to decide which you like best.

I haven't seen the Nexus 4 yet, but I compared the Optimus G to the Galaxy S3 and HTC One X, and I thought that the Optimus G looked just as good as the One X. I couldn't see a difference in colors. Icons looked exactly the same to me. I compared the Chome icon on both and the saturation looked the same. I personally can't stand HD AMOLED, and I can notice pentile clearly on the GS3 from the normal distance I hold the phone away from my face and I find it very distracting.

I find the colors on the Optimus G very pleasing while the HD AMOLED in the GS3 looks dirty to me. The colors are too oversaturated and whites don't look right. I can't stand looking at the GS3 screen. I was very excited when I heard that the Nexus 4 was moving to IPS. I wish they could make an OLED with the same color saturation as IPS but the blacks of the OLED.

So, for anyone trying to decide on the Nexus 4, my advise is to go to the store and look at both the Optimus G and Galaxy S3 and decide for yourself.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stratax:
i, for some reason hate amoled (pentile) screens. i cant stand the screen burn, over pixelated edges, and the "ink spot" effect it has on super dark colors. ill pick dull-ish blacks over those issues, and i dont like everything to be dark colored so it defeats the purpose. thats just my 2 cents though. lol

thats why i got so excited about the nexus 4 screen :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SIGUEL:
I accept the horrible camera and cheap plasticky build of my Gnex, but I freaking hate whit all my passion this Crappy Amoled display, so the IPS LCD display is a welcome update.

PS: I HATE AMOLED DISPLAYS...

Hi

Ok. I'll keep our short since i don't want to ask it but i really don't know....

How am i supposed to bring out that multi windows feature after installing mod on my phone?

Please tell.

Hey Guys - Girls

so, my question is, i got a samsung galaxy s2 & if i install a ROM on my device btw flash and there is Apex Launcher Included ...

can i REinstall Apex Launcher PRO ? the paid version ??? I ask myself this question even the whole time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
yes, you can install Apex Launcher Pro, it will just overwrite the free version of Apex included in the rom.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duarian:
I unlocked my bootloader, was successful in doing that. However now my nexus wont boot, and I get a red triangle every time I try to enter recovery. I downloaded the original 4.2 files, could not get the CMD to work for flashing them so I double clicked the 'flash-all' and it flashed everything. It was successful, but now I am still getting the red triangle for recovery and cannot factory reset.

Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you very much for your help!

Everytime I try to flash it it gives me a message at first: 'Archive does not contain boot.sig, recovery.sig, and system.sig'. Clearly they are in my folder both zipped and unzipped, and everything gets a big 'OKAY'. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Edit: Nevermind, turns out I just didn't know how to use the nexus recovery..pressing the power button brought up the recovery menu..gonna try a factory reset now..

IT WORKS! :) Time to root...

I just bought a mw600 for my sony acro s, tried to connect & use but I am depressed:

1. Track name is not showed in lcd. While it is working fine & smoothly with many models of the other brands, 2 product of sony not compatible is really difficult to accept

2. Firstly i connect & play walkman, the sound appear. But when I push call button of headset phone access voice command, but when i finish call work can not hear any sound any sound from media even walkman still running, media buttons (play, pause, next, previous) are still working fine, only sound disappears. I access to Bluetooth setting & find that if I disconnect phone audio, the sound of media return back automatically. But it disappears when I check to connect phone audio again, of course i can not use headset to call if I disconnect phone audio. i try to connect with my last headset Motorola hd-9, it is working fine, change from media to call or opposite automatically.

Please help me to solve above 2 problem.

Thank you so much
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmick30:
Hi, blessed people of XDA! :)

I love my Note, and JB ROM Ultimate and it has some mindblowing features.

However, I do fail to grasp what is the practical side of some of them (like multi-window), apart from shoving it under the nose of iPhone owners. :D :D :D

I mean, while the Note has a big screen, it is still not big enough to leave both the browser and and some pdf document open one above other... Is not swithcing in the task manager better?

I always welcome any form of enlightenment... ;)

Thanks and God bless...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidSlave:
No offense of course, but seems there is really no answer to your question... no one is forcing you to use the feature... I personally think its cool to watch a video while browsing the web... after all, the screen is large enough to do so practically
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsmas:
This is a addtional feature availale to Note 1. Whether you use it or how you use it is your problem, as such screen size cant be increased more than 5.3 by xda mods.

MIUIANDROID.COM 'S BUILD 2.11.23

Android 4.0.4

Kernel 3.0.50 - yozgatg

Sense 3.x camera

This is a port(not official miui) that appeared on miui uk site a week ago.

I'm merely posting about it here on XDA. Credits to people who worked on it.

Downloads

Original Build

The above build had a lot of Chinese bloat and also partly chinese IME. So I cleaned it up a little for you guys to try out.

miuiandroid_vision_2.11.23-cleaned.zip - 255.42 MB​
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1user101:
What are the bugs in this?:0
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btrst:
i suppose there is no landscape sms?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Web page not available. Please provide bugs with rom. Thanks for the post, will try it tomorrow if there is a mirror.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] strawmetal:
Nope

I'm not using my dz so I haven't tested it extensively for bugs.. I'm merely posting the rom. Links are working fine...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
rom is just a touch sluggish, especially waking from screen-off.

haven't noticed any bugs.

questions:

- where can i find "long press back to kill apps"

- is there a possibility of bypassing the setting that MIUI has put in place to prevent landscape SMS?

overall a little slower than the JB version of the rom, but everything works well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btrst:
wait, is there a jb version out?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cain1:
complete settings >buttons & keys > back key setting
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] strawmetal:
2.11.23 build has come up after a week's absence.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vladimir2k9:
for miuiandroid.com rom we can use Control Panel Suite from here.

It give landscape mode for message app, 4 way reboot and other.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
i tried installing the control panel zip and it boot locked.

going to back up and try again now, but it doesn't seem like its compatible with this stripped version.

---------- Post added at 01:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------

got it working.

landscape mode working well now too :D

going to try the rest of the features out.

thanks vlad.

edit:

what is surface flinger?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarkyG82:
Dude. Any tips for getting the panel to work. Gonna DL all the packages and flash away. Just wandered if I need to do anything in particular. Coming from a flinny JB test build so I'm guessing a full wipe and GApps is needed?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
i'll admit it's not that straightforward. so i'll help out.

install the rom only.

boot up.

set up your phone how you want, maybe run it for a couple of minutes, load apps you want to start on boot like setcpu or whatever.

use 4ext control to select the control panel zip to be installed, and make a backup of your steady state when you get everything set up.

when the control panel is done installing, it's not a setting in the phone menu, it's an app on your dashboard that you need to click on.

i think the trick is letting the rom boot and optimize the apps before installing. i got a boot loop when installing both at the same time.

best of luck.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------

sooooooo.... is we gittin' some JB 4.1.2 or 4.2 luuuvin' soon, strawzies? :fingers-crossed:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarkyG82:
Thanks mate. Worked a treat. Now rocking 2.11.23 with landscape sms :)

As a first impression for anyone who cares, I came from flinnys test 129. Straight away I notice better battery. Its more responsive even with the cpu set lower on min. Not seen any crazy text stuff which I got from time to time previously.

Overall its the same smooth miui that I remember.

Thanks guys :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
indeed, i'd have to say this is the best rom i've run in a very long time.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] btrst:
which device should we select to download control panel?

theres no vision on list so im guessing maybe ace?

edit: they just uploaded vision file so nevermind.

But with 130mb free ram you can use android..

you wont need 230mb free ram if you wont be doing much multitasking anyway.

hi every one when i install nova launcher i loose my original sense widgets how can i get them back?
[HTC One X] Electrostatic King:
You can't get them with a 3rd party launcher.

If you want sense widgets... Use the sense rosie launcher.

As for some specific widgets like clocks... I believe there is a port for other launchers.

Generally, you'll have to use sense launcher to use sense widgets.

[HTC One X] The Werewolf:
Hello guys,

I think I'm dying over here.

I just got my HTC One X and since I don't really like Sense I tried to flash it. So here is what I did:

1. Unlock the Bootloader: Everything was fine

2. Flash Clockwork recovery via fastboot: Check.

2. Root the phone via Clockwork Recovery: Still everything worked

3. Flash the Bootimage via fastboot: Still green

4. Flash the actual ROM via Clockwork Recovery:

Here's where the problems started kicking in. The Rom started flashing, erased my internal storage, but then aborted for some reason.

Now I have the following Problem: I can get into HBOOT, I can get into the cwm, but thats it. When I try to get to the internal storage cwm tells me: internalsd was not found.

So I thought maybe I'll just set everything back to start via RUU. Problem is: I can't find a suitable RUU. Fastboot tells me my version is 2.17.111.3, but I can only find RUUs with the id 1.26.111.3. Seems to be an older version? Can I use that one, too? If not, has anyone any idea, what to do? I don't know what to do.

Thanks for your help.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You can mount your sd card within cwm recovery . Go to mounts & storage and then at the the bottom you see mount as USB disk. Copy another ics rom to it. And do the procedure all over. Flash the boot.img from the rom do a factory reset and flash the ics rom.

Try another ICS rom first !
[HTC One X] The Werewolf:
Thanks for the quick answer, I appreciate it.

When I try to mount the whole storage as USB drive windows wants me to format it. Can I do that, or is that a bad idea?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Hmm well it depends if you have personal stuff on it like fotos or something. Of not i don't see the problem. And by this you mean the 25 gig that is available on the sd card ?

And what do you mean with "the whole storage" ? There is only 1 sd card in the phone. And that's the one that will be mounted with the USB disk mount option.

You are using 5.8.4.0 cwm recovery ?

Keep the info coming so help can be provided ! :thumbup:
[HTC One X] The Werewolf:
Well, no personal stuff. As mentioned, I literally just bought the phone.

I go into the recovery, then mounts and storage -> mount USB Storage -> plug it into my computer -> windows wants me to format the storage of the device I just pluged in...
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Should not be a problem then, maybe it got corrupted somehow....make sure that you format it as fat32. Then copy another ics rom, try viper x ..... Great experience with that one ! Just to make sure the whole shabam works !
