[Nexus 7 General] OmRomRom:
Idk if many people were getting massive buffering issues when trying to play Hulu Plus content like I was, but there's an easy (an pretty ridiculous fix). Hulu Plus streaming apparently has streaming issues on rooted devices. The fix? Temp unroot via Voodoo OTA and then play content. It works. I'm using the method myself. After you're finished restore root. Profit.

If that has been posted already I apologize. I didn't see any Hulu topics.
[Nexus 7 General] tevil:
found this googling the issue but Im unrooted and get crazy buffering on my nexus really pissing me off.
[Nexus 7 General] AraDreamer:
Yeah, unrooting shouldn't do much unless it's having an issue with AdAway or a similar app. And mine isn't having issues with ads, it's buffering forever once I get to the actual content. It's an unacceptable issue, but I have multiple devices/platforms for a reason. Needs to be fixes, though. -Ara

[HTC Droid DNA] CISGS:
What's going on guys?

I need some opinions here...

I do love my Droid DNA. The screen is crisp, I like the camera and I love the form factor.

I honestly don't know how long I can deal with the screen being this big. It kind of hinders the experience for me.

The reasons I am considering returning this (Verizon offers the 14 day window) and getting a GS3 is because I want Cyanogenmod (and prefer the 1 click root method, don't want to risk really damaging my phone messing with ADB) and for the size as shown above.

What do you guys think I should do?
[HTC Droid DNA] adrynalyne:
A lot of it is psychological imo. You know its 5 inches, so it feels huge. My Gnex is 4.65 inches and isn't that much smaller. I believe the GS3 is around the same size, if not a bit larger.

Don't mind the mess, I was helping my daughter with her homework.

It looks huge here:

But when you look at it a little differently, not so much.

This one has my gnex on top.
[HTC Droid DNA] Ndaoud360:
DNA 5 inches GSIII 4.8 inches. Not worth it. .2 inches bigger with great cam quad core and 1080p. Stick with DNA. After getting to used to it doesn't feel that big.
[HTC Droid DNA] .torrented:
Yea dude if you were to go to the gsiii you would be kicking yourself in the rear ...
[HTC Droid DNA] Wot-75:
Not much size difference at all...
[HTC Droid DNA] rfarrah:
You should move on. Sure, you'll cry later.... :D
[HTC Droid DNA] Memnoch73:
I would like to throw this out there. I messed with my step-daughters GS3 2 days before getting the DNA and I absolutely hated the hardware home button. After using a touch button for years I had to stop and readjust my hand every time I had to push the stupid home button.

Just my 2cents
[HTC Droid DNA] xShin:
I agree with everyone that's posted so far. The S3 is barely smaller, and the hardware button is extremely irritating (my girlfriend's mom got one and that stupid button, along with the lack of Sense, was driving me crazy). The screen is also annoying, with the AMOLED part of it messing with the colors and the Pentile part of it creating that criss-cross pattern whenever you look at a white background. Plus the build quality on the DNA is infinitely better.. I've never been a fan of Samsung build quality.

In short, keep the DNA!
[HTC Droid DNA] CISGS:
Thank you guys for all of these helpful posts and for the pictures! It helps. I am trying to sit tight and wait for a potential Cyanogenmod release. Then I can probably deal with the size.
[HTC Droid DNA] nrfitchett4:
might be waiting a while...
[HTC Droid DNA] pitbulledEvo:
do you think they will have an AOSP ROM out anytime soon? Or s off? I'm in the same boat as the OP, only not because of the size but because I don't like using ADB. I'm coming from the Droid Razr Maxx and everything was so simple before but this device doesn't suck stock.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlcox89:
Hi, i have approx. 8000 messages in a conversation and started to notice that my GS3 is becoming very slow to type a message, i start to type and only a few seconds the characters start to appear. I had not noticed this before...

Could it be the number of messages?

I've downloaded the sms file and it's just 2.49MB, so how can a phone with a quadcore cpu not handle that number of messages? Or maybe it's not the sms number?

Also, i tried to delete that same conversation thread and after 5minutes it's saying "deleting" and doesnt finish :|

Using Leak JB, default kernel

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhatt:
You can try wiping cache/fix permissions vie recovery mode
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brenogbi:
Its the number of sms... Happen to me either..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oomahey:
It's the number of messages. A single message of 2.49MB is waaaaaay easier, and faster, to process than 8000+ messages totalling the same size.

Try this in your computer when you have the time. Copy 1 file of about 700MB (say a movie file) and copy many, many small files totalling the same size. You'll see the difference. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo6776:
Indeed.

Although why anyone would want to keep 8000+ messages is beyond me!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chooky536:
just wondering before i decide what Rom suits me
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
The difference between odexed and deodexed is 'de'.

Seriously now:

-odexed store fixed cache (a part of the app) from system apps in the system partition (system/app). You can see .odex files alog with app files in there.

-deodexed store this cache as regular dalvik cache in /data.

Principal differences in performance:

-Usually odexed boots up quicker, and launches apps quicker. Deodex runs apps quicker (once already launched).

-odexed have less rom memory (in /system) but leave more l memory available in /data. Deodexed is the other way around, less files in /system, more files in /data.

-odexed apps cannot be decompiled/modified, they must be deodexed first.

Most (if not all) custom roms use deodexed systems
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bgnw:
I'm sure there are a few threads like this, and obviously each person is going to have their own view of their preferred ROM. With that said...

I'm trying to choose between two ROMS:

CleanROM 5.0

-or-

LIQUIDSMOOTH RC 9

I'm aware of the core differences (AOSP vs modded), and I think I'm ultimately leaning towards the AOSP ROM, purely based off keeping it as close to the original source code as possible. What is really going to be the deciding factor, and please post your experience and advice if you've used both ROMs, are the following questions:

1) Method of flashing - Same method for both ROMs?

2) Do both ROMs have working GPS functionality?

3) What are the major benefits and/or drawbacks of those ROMs individually?

4) Any showstopper or critical bugs in either ROM?

5) Recommended radio for the associated ROM?

This is a work phone (no, there isn't an issue with me doing this -- I work for an open source software company) so I am very hesitant to do something that could effect my day-to-day without a degree of certainty. I appreciate any assistance with this, including the "gtfo, use search, or tl;dr responses". Mucho gracias!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeman45:
I think the best radio to use is the one that worked best in your area so far, it seems to be different for everybody. I had best results with k1. I personally like the TW ROMs just for the certain features that came stock with the phone that you don't get with aosp. That being said liquid has always had excellent ROMs and any little problems that there may be. There is always some sort of work around just have to some searching.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
Those were the two ROMs I got down to in my selection process as well. I was going to try both but starting with CleanROM. I've like CR so much I haven't switched. I have had no issues with 5.0 at all. I switched to the newest modem/rpm when I flashed CR and have had no issues with it. Having said that, there are people on the CR thread who have been having some issues, many caused by other mods they have added. You might want to check out the thread to see if there have been any reports of issues that would specifically affect you. It is a VERY long thread so use search rather than trying to read all the posts. Scott is very much involved in the thread, answers questions readily, and is extremely good at fixing anything that is a ROM issue.

Sell or trade the phone and get a tmobile one. Other than that there is no way your getting tmobile data to work.

just the 200mb 95% of time i am on wifi except when i go travel.

I don't post much but i had to post this. If you have a nexus 4 get a case ASAP. I have had many phones before this and i have never seen a phone crack so easily. I have Thrown my vibrant and nexus s ( not new of course) and they never shattered. This thing fell out of my pocket onto the floor while sitting at my desk. I measured the distance at approx. 2.5 feet. It looks like i flung it off a cliff. Gorilla glass my ass.

I am not pissed just shocked at how much damage. I only posted to let others know not to hold out on a case and get one ASAP until they find something that suits them better. But ill let this thread die since it seems like the CRACK crack police (pun intended) is on the prowl on the forum.

Not sure how they make impact zones on a fully glass and rigid device with out making it larger. I larger strip around the device or something maybe, I dont know.

I heard that they wanted to use a metal or aluminum, stainless steal or something like that but b they choose glass so the beam would function.

I do no it know if true but I heard it on a very big podcast from someone who interviewed a guy was on the design team.

I think a stainless steel backplate would have been amazing..

I'm sorry for you but I don't get why everyone scolds about the gorilla glass. It is designed to be scratch resistant, not shatter proof! Nobody ever said that you can't shatter Gorilla glass!

It's the same with steel. If you make it harder to prevent it from deforming it tends to break faster.

cell phones fall all the time,

my older phones all have fall, but this is the first with crack screen,

my s3 has some falls.

n4 was the FIRST fall... :(
[Nexus 4 General] gentuxable:
Wow didn't realize I've been lucky for some time now. I happen to let things falling all the times and my nexus 4 felt hard once, landed on wood and had nothing. I had an iPhone 4S before which felt on concrete from a jacket pocket, that's around a meter with no damage. The HTC One S felt often and having that phone in the jacket pocket l managed to slap it against doors when I had to hurry but no problem for the aluminum unibody. But then again my Nokia E61 survived falling one story because it slipped off my hands while I was going down the stairs that would kill almost every new smartphone out there I suppose.

But I hate cases and have my devices always in their original design and if they scratch well that's supposed to be like that. HTC One S and iPhone 5 have some glossy spots now and I'm sure the soft touch material around the body of the n4 will be shiny too in some weeks but that's Ok for me, because better enjoy your device now as it is than never when you enclose it and if you have a case where you have to remove the phone to use it then you are adding an additional potential of an accident by inserting/removing the phone from the case.

So phones fall all the times, that's true and you have apparently to be lucky to have your phone surviving the fall. I think it heavily depends on the environmental temperature it scatters more easily when it's cold or when the delta between the inner device temperature and the environment is high enough, makes sense?
