The N4 has tons of developers. No need to bring some from a device that should have been dead a year ago.
[myTouch 4G General] In4somefun:
I am not sure I understand what your saying ? My Touch should have been dead a year ago so there's no point in adding a Nexus 4 as a phone that a DEV would build for ? I would think a lot of DEVS write for more than one phone anyway?
[myTouch 4G General] jocami:
i would like to get a nexus 4, i really want a new phone but i dont earn enought to just buy it... :(

Enjoy N4 when u move on give it to me :D
[myTouch 4G General] JG:
One of these guys., Looking for handouts huh!If you want one it is called SAVE for it ..I would like a new car but i wouldn't ask someone to give me theres when there done with it..FLAME.
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
...Awesome... got a Nexus 4. He released Toasted Marshmallow for it.
[myTouch 4G General] JG:
What up Bro! Yep I seen that! Sure is alot to choose from over there! I heard that stock rom with franco kernel is way to go is that true.(I have no idea since i don't have one yet.)I am getting one myself next month and just curious.
[myTouch 4G General] garleest:
Should have waited another month and got a real phone.

[myTouch 4G General] JG:
That looks sweet maybe I will just wait until that comes out !I am fine for now with my sensation and still have my glacier as a back up so I am in no rush anyhow!
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
He actually got rid of it supposedly.

He's getting the HTC one

---------- Post added at 02:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 PM ----------

Um, no.

PUB or Carbon ROM with either Franco or Trinity Kernel. I prefer Franco's for the colors but Trinity gives me better battery. Project ELE is pretty good too.

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

That would've been a great phone if it didn't have the sense overlay and was released a few months ago. KLP is right around the corner and who knows how long it'll take HTC to push out that update. It is a nice phone though.
[myTouch 4G General] AdamLechowicz:
NO! The mt4g is going to live on! Do you realize that right now the mt4g has a more recent version (the most recent one, 4.2.2)of android through custom rooms than MOST new phones? HOW BOUT THAT?! The mytouch 4g is never going to die. There is a lot of love for this oldie, and people really like the hardware. Jelly bean actually runs faster than gingerbread on my particular device! Not only that, but its actually a popular phone. You can still see many people walking around with a mt4g.
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
He didn't get rid of it, last I head. He hard bricked it and it has to be repaired.

There is no best ROM. PM or gtalk me what features you like and I'll give you some places to start. There are several GREAT kernels with a myriad of features. We can discuss that.

---------- Post added at 12:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

There is always a newer, more powerful phone right around the corner. Quite frankly a LOT of people are sick to death of HTC's locked down bootloaders, HTC Dev, and slow updates. While the Nexus 4 is simple, it's quite literally made for nerds. Unlocking the bootloader is as simple as a single fastboot command. From there it's gravy. To each his own, though. The beauty of Android is choice.
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
The Nexus 4 is a "QUALITY" device.

The price is low b/c

Google

sells their devices at prices close to how much it costs to make the device. The phone is actually more expensive at other retailers than the $299 8gb model you saw on Google Play. The phone is $599 if you buy it from Best Buy for example.

As far as "you get what you pay for", that can be interpreted to be negative for something "cheap" and something "expensive"

For example: Buying a crappy 10in, off-brand no name Android tablet w/ an 800x480 resolution and a dual core 1ghz processor for maybe $79.99

Second example: Buying an apple product. Nuff said.

But while we're talking about apple, I should mention that the iPhone 5 costs apple roughly ~$200 to make. Let that soak in.
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Well said. You won't get anything across to that troll, though. Some people are too stubborn to learn.
[myTouch 4G General] htc_mytouch:
Since your therory is that the Nexus 4 is so much more valuable than $299.00. I have a great ideal for you.

Buy 100 of them at $299 with tax and shipping the final price should be around $350 per phone. Total price= $35000.00

List them on Ebay for 599.00 plus free shipping and no taxes Total sales would be $59900.00 - $6000 for shipping and fees Grand Total Sales =53900.00

Your profit would be $18,900.00 How could you turn down that much easy money? Hell if you can't do a 100. Do 5 that would be almost a $1000.00 profit

Some how I don't think your theroy would work. I just seen a brand new in the box on a buy it now for $325.00 shipping included.

A value of an object is what market will bear. Nothing else. The reason Google is selling them so cheap is they found one of the cheapest manufacturers to make them. Do you actually think that they would be selling at $299 if Samsung or Htc made them?

Nothing to learn here other than a Nexus 4 is worth about $299.00. In a few months $150.00
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Except that the GNex sold for $299. Who made that again? Oh, right. Samsung.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
You are completely fixating on an irrelevant point. All he is saying is just because it is priced competitively, doesn't mean its a low quality device. You need to understand that you can't judge the quality of a device by the markup a cell phone carrier may make. For example, T-Mobile charges 413 dollars for a Galaxy S2, no way in hell that STILL costs that much to build a plastic phone, but, by your logic, the build quality would be better and it would be a WAY better phone. See what i am getting at? Don't go around trying to be argumentative and douchey, i saw your post on the B.S. thread. Take it down a notch.
[myTouch 4G General] htc_mytouch:
This is what I said "Bottom line for me is QUALITY. And I just don't see it in the Nexus 4" And I still don't.

I'm hearing rumors that the back cracks around the camera and it's easily scratched. If that's the case I don't consider that a quality build. Really don't want a phone that looks two years old after 6 months.

As far as cost. Other people brought that into the equation. Which was really irrelevent because my statement was always about build quality. Period! But I respo

nded because i felt I was getting smoke blown up my A** It doesn't matter if the phone is $299 or $599 if it has issues I don't want it.

This is just one of the articles I've read.

http://www.androidauthority.com/nexus-4-cracked-back-glass-135237/
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
All phones have issues. HTC can definitely attest to that. Never seen one of theirs that didn't. There is no perfect phone.

My N4 hasn't cracked because I keep a bumper on it and my back isn't scratched because I keep a clear protector on it. The phone still looks amazing. Problem solved. By the way, I work outside, every weekday, regardless of the weather. I have zero issues with the quality of the build of this device and I have it in my hand every day. I also came from a myTouch 4G, so I know what solid build quality feels like.
[myTouch 4G General] garleest:
I have first hand knowledge of the back glass shattering.

A coworker and I stopped at Braun's for lunch. In the process he slid into one of those plastic booths with phone in his back pocket.

A short time later he pulled out his phone and the back glass was shattered. To say he was stunned would be an understatement.

What is really funny is watching him try to text on an old flip phone. Some skills are lost pretty quickly.
[myTouch 4G General] JG:
Will do I will PM you and discuss it when I am ready thanks Bro!
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
You brought cost into the discussion by saying the device is $299 and you get what you pay for.

But good luck on your phone search for a phone with no issues. Kinda eliminated all current options with that statement.
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Why would you put a glass phone in your back pocket? I won't say he got what he deserves, because I wouldn't wish that on anyone. However, I hope he learned a valuable lesson. Either that he needs to buy something fairly indestructible or learn to be more careful.

Also, mmmm, Braun's.
[myTouch 4G General] garleest:
Yeah, I'm sure he learned something that day.

Back in the day I did something similar. I worked and saved and bought me a new iPhone 2g. Now I know what people say about iPhones. But at that time there really wasn't no other smart phone but the iPhone. I was doing something on my ride. While I was working on the ride the girlfriend called. Next thing the phone and a screw driver ended up in my back pocket. What do you think happened when I decided to get in the car and start it. No it didn't crack the screen it just took out about a square inch of pixels. I learned something valuable that day and also gained an advanced paper weight which I still have.

"Braun's" Guess I need to get that damn spell check checked. Oops now it works "Braum's"
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Haha. That's sucks. I bet you were beyond mad.

Yeah, I got it wrong too. I haven't had Braum's in ages. Their ice cream is great.
[myTouch 4G General] garleest:
Man, All within a few seconds I went from blind rage, to blaming the girlfriend, to disappointment, to why in the hell did I answer the phone, to I will never allow people to distract me again while I'm doing something.

The last was my valuable lesson I learned that day. It has really paid dividends in the business world. Alot of those "emergencies" that customers call you about. Just happen to go away when the customers are forced to leave a voicemail or type out an email.
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
That's probably the smartest thing I'll read today. There is always a lesson to be learned from our mistakes. You found yours and used it to better yourself instead of passing the buck and going away with nothing more than a busted phone. I wish I knew more people like you.
[myTouch 4G General] md1008:
The One looks nice but with a locked boot loader, no SD card, and slow updates (if you get them at all) I think I will pass on the one.

A lot of people have moved on to the N4 and I am sure there are many mt4g users hell probably team inferno is in the mix. Seems like a lot of people from here either went with Samsung or N4.
[myTouch 4G General] I2IEAILiiTY:
Awesome said he's getting a One, but I'm sure it'll be his "work" phone.
[myTouch 4G General] THEindian:
The "One" is really beautiful :D
[myTouch 4G General] md1008:
As much as I have zero desire for the phone you are absolutely correct. Possibly the most sexxxeh phone I have seen to date.
[myTouch 4G General] pnut22r:
My wife has the Nexus 4 and its a great device. But for some reason the HTC One has an allure to me

[HTC One X] exoticashu:
i was wondering that what new innovation (not its hardware partners) have brought up by HTC with its 2012's flagship device?? something which is new and innovative..

Any thoughts or responses?
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
New innovations? I'm not a native English talker, but it's nonsense :D

And the answere is no, no 2012 smartphones have had any innovations, all of them are evolution since 2008
[HTC One X] exoticashu:
Sorry i couldn't understand the pun intended by you here.. would you like to elaborate a bit for my help?

talking about the 2012's phones, though i thought i will not brought up, but after seeing the new headphone design by iphone 5, it made me think, isn't that first in market?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Nah I disagree, HTC One X is definitely the first and innovative phone with Quad core processor and design.
[HTC One X] exocetdj:
I agree :)

OT but what do those stars stand for under your flag mate?
[HTC One X] exoticashu:
But how could we give credit of quad-core to HTC when it is given by Nvidia...
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
My donations to xda.
[HTC One X] exocetdj:
Ah got you! How do i go about doing that?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
http://xdaforums.com/donations.php :)
[HTC One X] exocetdj:
Thx buddy! :)
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Tsja, how can we give credit to a processor if it doesn't have a machine? :)
[HTC One X] exoticashu:
well i completely agree on need of machine for processor ... and still partially agree/disagree that use of quad-core processor idea, would be brain child of HTC.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Companies use hardware parts from different manufacturers.

It's how it's now, logical to my opinion as you can't design the technology all by yourself.

Every HTC device is getting better/faster more beautifull, lighter... etc, that's innovation isn't? ;)
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
About my previous answer, I understand your question but what could be a device without its hardware partners?

It's the design and ideas that makes a brilliant device and a company roling I ques.

A few years ago nobody knew about HTC but it's one of the oldest companies that exist in smartphone world.
[HTC One X] treebill:
i wouldn't call that innovation, as said its more evolution single core, dual and then quad. Next will likely be hyper threading.

now the +1 power save core on the tegra 3 i would consider innovation.

Sent from my Transformer TF101

@vorticalbox tweet me :p
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
Of we talk of innovations, I would say the real innovations are steps in another way than evolution. Like making touch screen as the main control element or make it styllusfree (the only in innovation apple did).

Conductional charging is another one.

So there are no break throughs or real innovations since 4 years.

And HTC havent done nothing gorgeous with hox, they just took the best available things on the market today.

As for me, real things that have to come, are 2x battery life or the new comfortable way you interact with your phone (touchscreen era should come to its end by 2020)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MadManMark:
Is the battery removable? tried taking it out and putting it back in after 5 mins? If this is happening to a brand new phone from the shop, you should really just go and return it instead of trying to fix it yourself...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] troullis2004:
I had the same issue with my old phone, an lg optimus one p500. I was a soldier then. The phone didn't charge at all. The very next morning when shops opened, I returned it and the problem was with the charging pins. The battery and charger was fine but pins would not draw voltage from the battery. I bet you can remove the battery, plug the charger and switch it on.

Anyway, return it to the shop without delay and demand that you get a new one.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
The Xperia Play isn't officially able to be updated to 4.1. It will probably be stuck on Gingerbread (2.3.x) forever, but you can get 4.1 on it at the cost of your warranty. To do this, you will need to flash a custom rom. You can find a couple of guides in the general or development sections.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymonkey05:
There is a beta from for the play on Sony's website but its only 4.0 which is ICS. But I would stay on gingerbread as this is the best for gaming
[HTC One X] hamdir:
unless you've been living under a rock, you must be aware by now about my performance mod for Need for Speed Most Wanted 1.0.28

This a poll about the Multiple Configuration Patch configuration patch

I have recently recommended 1300000 for internal view and 100000 for external view

I would like to know which setting you found best to play this game

will help us realize which is more important graphics/effect or speed/smoothness :)
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
1ghz version.

It is smoother, the phone doesnt gets so hot, so the battery consumtion is not that heavy and it is still eyecandy .

I just wish I could do this with shadowgun deadzone: I would give up this tasty shaders for good perfomance with 8+ players on the screen...(it goes down to aprx. 12 fps and its annoying in online game)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
good choice :) i found its best for outer view

as for shadowgun deadzone, you can! in the game just go to settings and reduce the graphics, by default it high or ultra

madfinger betrayed us on this one! they used tegra 3 to develop and test the game and in the final multi device version they ruined it for tegra :mad: it was so smooth in the beta

Zlotin you have to select an option to enter the poll please :)
[HTC One X] faiz02:
1000000

Neo's Kernel. @ 1.2GHz
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Recommendation for the HTC One X Tegra 3

The Nexus 7 patch or the 1300000 mode is good in initial levels, except the lag during road blocks, sadly later on with faster cars fps does suffer, keeping in mind the internal view doesn't have to draw your car and has much higher fps, i have concluded the following:

- If you like to play from

internal view, i recommended the Nexus 7/1300000 mode

you get to enjoy the extra track effects at good fps, even road blocks lag is minimized

- If you like to play from

external view, you will have to settle with the 100000 mode

, this is the mode running on the Nexus 10, the graphics still look massively better than Asphalt 7 and there are two bright sides no lag whatsoever on roadblocks and with the fog removed you get to enjoy much further draw distance

- If you still like to play the external view plus 1300 i suggest you try Eternity Project kernel with my interactive script, fastest but complex kernel for gaming and runs 1300 mode very smooth
[HTC One X] uygar2580:
Thanks for your good work. I'll try it now.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Those using the gaming kernel i seriously recommend switching to SIO scheduler for much less micro stutters ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] UhQ:
Like the title says, my phone keeps randomly rebooting while doing normal tasks on my phone and upon rebooting, it continuously reboots from anywhere between 1 time and a days worth of reboots, it really has gotten quite annoying and I have no idea what to do.

Some might claim that it's the rom, I'm running Cyanogen 10, but it's not, this happened before when I was on Meanrom too....

Thanks for any help that can be given!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
If I make a backup using .tar mode do I still need the blobs folder.

I understand the use of the blobs folder and why it could be an improvement on the time taken to make backups and the size of backups, but when copying the blobs folder from the internal sd card to the PC it takes forever....3375 folder with 2 small files in each is a pain...

So, I had been advised to make the backups in tar mode...my question is,,,,does that backup need the blobs folder or is the backup folder a complete backup?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tilal6991:
Tar means the blobs folder no longer needs to be copied. All the partitions are tarred and contain everything. All the above is as far as I can remember and I would double check before you start relying on my word.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
This is correct as in: all backups created in TAR are a complete, in itself closed and contained backup, they do not rely on the blobs folder.

All backups created using the DUP format (eg. with the blobs folder) are of course still relying on the blobs folder. If you do not need those "old" backups anymore, you may remove the folders containing the referece files (eg 2012-11-19-etc folder) and the blobs folder altogether.

TAR may take longer to be created, but are a lot more convenient for managing different backups or backups of totally independent system setups (stock and cm, for example :victory:). Single backups can be independently archived, deleted, moved etc.
