I received mine yesterday too and I love it. It is so fast and smooth, it's insane.

Coming from a Galaxy S2 with a 800x480 resolution to an IPS 1280x768 resolution. The change is mind-boggling.

I really love this phone. The last time I was so in love with the design of a gadget was when I got my Sony Clie NX80v. Not even mine iPad (which I think is gorgeous) doesn't even match up. IMO. I'm just in love with all the detailed designs of the phone. Rounded edge of the screen, the glittery back, the notification light. Everything.
[Nexus 4 General] Ballastatuz:
I know how you feel. I am totally in love with my nexus to. I received it on the 27th as well. From the screen to the design, the notification sounds, the feel, the weight, even the camera has been impressive at times. I love the touch buttons. Gaming is great. Also I did a tweak and my HSDPA speeds are blistering fast.
[Nexus 4 General] wmm:
I'm with you guys. My first unit had a problem -- the camera LED didn't work. I just received my replacement last night, and I'm extremely happy with it. I can't believe I got this contract-free for $300.
[Nexus 4 General] FatalityBoyZahy:
My replacement is also problem free. I'm really enjoying this device.
[Nokia Lumia 920] DPLOY:
Android had this nice feature where you can silence the phone between XX:XXam and YY:YYpm...any know of an app that can replicate this feature in WP8?

TIA
[Nokia Lumia 920] StevieBallz:
Apps can't change system settings in Windows Phone. There is no automated functionality in the OS for this either. You will have to do that yourself in the evening.
[Nokia Lumia 920] DPLOY:
Thanks - guess I will have to turn off my phone at night for the first time in years. Or maybe keep it in another room for the night.
[Nokia Lumia 920] schettj:
When locked, you just press the vol button (either one) and then tap the sound/mute/vibe icon upper right. Takes a lot less time than turning off your phone. Or did you mean that?

And yeah, the app restrictions are still way too draconian in WP8.
[Nokia Lumia 920] DPLOY:
I dont get a MUTE option - only ring+vibrate or just plain vibrate...?
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
I think that is the mute option! :(
[Nokia Lumia 920] andrew-in-woking:
vibrate is separate

Hi DPLOY

The vibrate function is separate. You turn the vibrate on/of in the "ringtones + sounds" settings. If you have vibrate on the button on the volume controls will toggle ring + vibrate and ring. With vibrate off it will toggle ring and mute.

God bless

andrew-in-woking
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Odd that there are two toggles rather than one three-state toggle for this functionality.
[Nokia Lumia 920] DPLOY:
ok thanks
[Nokia Lumia 920] indoors:
Why not just put the phone into Flight mode? Settings > Flight mode. Or install "Pin it" from the store and you can put the Flight mode toggle tile on your start screen. You can also add tiles for WiFi, Bluetooth and Mobile data too.
[Nokia Lumia 920] -adrian-:
if you cant change settings through apps i guess you can also not use NFC patches to set settings

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razeryokes:
Good morning world,

I rooted my A57 phone few weeks back by following the procedure that is described everywhere on the internet. Since that moment, the phone is pretty stable.

But something interesting happened twice to my phone. Without any particular reason, my phone goes back to a non-rooted state. I notice it because I stop being able to load any application that requires root permissions, like Titanium Backup for example.

TB tries to boot, Superuser grants it the root user permissions but then TB stays stuck on "Asking for root...". Almost same thing happens to ES File Explorer, which cannot mount /system/ as root anymore. Basically, I cannot do anything that requires root access anymore.

I tried many things but the only solution that currently works is to root it again.

Does anyone know why my phone is acting this way ? Is my phone updating and unrooting itself without me knowing ? Can I block this ? Is this a bug of Superuser ? Any idea ?

Thank you very much for your kind help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravirajpoot:
last night i gt this Phone and today Morning Rooted it with UnlockRoot and its working fine

Are you facing Slow internet and Low Sound during Call ??? well many user on internet saying these problem

but everything is okay in my case (heated in heavy use same As my Nokia 5230)still m getting Positive Response from my phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] therealmarv:
Hello all,

I already searched the forum but I did not found any good answer.

1. In the past I've succesfully applied root access without unlocking the bootloader while still beeing on Android 4.1.x from this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1894717

2. Now I've got a 4.2 OTA update. Before applying it I used Voodoo OTA rootkeeper to keep a backup of su.

3. Restored su with Voodoo OTA rootkeeper

The result is that I have again root access from shell but when I want to use Apps which require root I always get failures and even no confirmation dialog.

How do I get superuser working (fully root) like before?

Thanks,

therealmarv

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] therealmarv:
How should I flash that without having CWM? I think I need a manual repair :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Is your bootloader locked?

If not...use my guide (in sig or stickied) to back up data before unlocking...

If so... "fastboot boot recovery.img" and flash the file.

The recovery is only being booted into...not written to the phone; so you'd still be stock rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
How in the world you not have a unlocked bootloader when you rooted before..

That aside, do remember to keep the bootloader unlocked next time..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
The same sort of exploit that was used in ICS was eventually found for 4.1.1 that allowed root without unlocking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
What i mean is how can they not unlock the bootloader after rooting..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] therealmarv:
I did not unlocked bootloader because I thought it is not necessary (and I also thought it will affect OTA updates). So just to get it right: I can make a backup of my phone, root it, unlock bootloader and recover the backup afterwards so that no data is lost?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] therealmarv:
Ok I solved my issue (having su access via adb and locked bootloader) with this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27085483&postcount=141

1. I unlocked the bootloader with the link above

2. flashed CWM with fastboot

3. flashed SuperSU CWM ZIP for getting root again

So I now have fully root, unlocked bootloader and cwm :) great.

hey guys could someone please provide me the audio libraries of xperia mini stock ics rom (.587) beacuse i want to try then in my rom !
[Nokia Lumia 920] Tempest790:
I set up my mail and main account in less than 5 minutes on my 920. It synced perfectly and pulled down all my contacts, calendar, and photo.

Music syncing wasn't quite as smooth, but I got it working. I do agree about having only one main account and not being able to change it seems stupid.

As for apps, they are coming, but I have noticed some developers putting out subpar WP8 apps while their iOS and Android are fine. I blame the developers for that crap. It's inexcusable.

[Nokia Lumia 920] awagner:
Hmm that's funny...

I have an adriod tablet... gmail account and credit card needed for the marketplace... hmm Sounds like an iPhone where an Apple id is required to use the iCrap. Same issue there. Now, I do have one customer that has a Blackberr..... uh nope just switched to a 920. Just saying, your first point has me wondering where else it is any different. The comparison to iOS, eh... one thing I don't have an issue wit on the phone is text size and reading all that, but you do realize you can change that in the settings!!!! This was a change over WP7. Yes there are some subpar apps, but that's what sets WP apart so much of the phone will do what you need 10 apps to do on iOS and Andriod. I can do most of what you do faster on any other platform. However, this is all a preference argument and I personally don't have an app hard on. I had to help a customer settle in coming from her iPhone, but we set up her outlook to use her Micosoft accout for her contacts and calander. She is all setup like if she had excange server at home without changing her other email address. There is a learning curve with any switch... you made one when you bought your first iPhone. You are not buying a new iPhone, it is a new platform.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Montastic:
I'm sorry you had such a hard time setting an account. In my case, it look me less than 2 mins. It would have been much easier for you to create an account on your computer and then just sign-in with your phone. Wish WP8 provided a "hint" like this to those who are completely new to this ecosystem.
[Nokia Lumia 920] awagner:
Completely agree.. iCrap forces you to do it that way... the device does not even power on without initially hooking it up and setting it up with iTunes on a computer. I think Micrsoft could recomend it on that first setup screen. If you already have an MS account you don't need to go to the computer at all.... so at least with WP8 you can skip that step and have everything setup before you get home. Just when you thought that would be a feature!
[Nokia Lumia 920] JetFan:
OP, I feel your pain. I like my Nokia 920, but am starting to get cold feet because of the apps. One example, I drive a Toyota it uses ENTUNE, there is no app and possibly will never be fully compatible. ALso things like HBO GO and such. I dont use them much on a phone anyway, but I still miss it. And as my cable company adds Video Apps, they take forever to get to Android, how long until they even acknowledge WP8?? My Son is a college athlete, whats the odds his schools app will have a WP8 version? Again, I do like the phone, if I didnt also use a 7" Galaxy Tab, I probably would have returned it. However, the new Galaxy Note 2 is tempting me to switch phones again...
[Nokia Lumia 920] KentuckyHouse:
While the setup on mine was easy, I'll be returning it today for one big reason...the camera. Granted, I knew going in that they camera has problems in daylight shots, but I figured I'd give it a try in the real world and see how my results turned out. Honestly, even worse than I expected. I also have the SIII and this thing can't hold a candle to it's camera. Maybe Nokia fixes it with a software update, but what if they don't? I'd rather return it and wait and see rather than keep it, go beyond my return window, and be stuck with such a crappy camera that never gets fixed.

He's a comparison shot I did this morning. The 920 picture looks like it's been run through some sort of cartoon editing software. Look at the tree on the right with the dead leaves still on it compared to the shot from the SIII. Insanity.

920:

SIII:

[tIMG]http://i.imgur.com/Q4gUU.jpg[/tIMG]

The colors are alright, but there's absolutely NO clarity. Just awful. So, for now, while I love the phone in every other regard, I'll be returning it and waiting to see if the camera gets fixed.
[Nokia Lumia 920] dgmhunt:
set up hotmail, gmail, and facebook in seconds, downloaded my contacts from google having migrated from bustedrobot, besides the lack of apps (as its has been repeated their coming) wipes the floor with bustedrobot and i-crap and anything from RIM. easily the best phone ive owned in years
[Nokia Lumia 920] awagner:
Yeah, I have seen a couple of those shots show up, but the majority of shots put the SIII to shame. Go indors and take some shots without the flash (turn it off) And yes the Lumia 900 had some simular issues and yep that got an update right away. The cam went from lackluster to pretty damn good. The pictures consistantly came out better than my transforer prime tablet which had a decent camera.
[Nokia Lumia 920] DPLOY:

[Nokia Lumia 920] donnaw:
Hmm, I set mine up in the store while waiting for the receipt to be printed. But I did already have a .live account. I didn't have to input a credit card because if I buy anything I just add it to my ATT bill. Very unlike my iPad where Apple insists I have a CC on file.

As for locking you into one specific account, well, that's no different from Apple. I can't change my Apple ID either.

And apps? Well, I find that the OS does just about anything I need without specific apps. Whereas I find IOS not much more than a glorified 'app launcher'.

Don't get me wrong. I love my iPad. But I expect something more and different from my phone. I expect my phone to simplify my life and frankly I find this OS does that. I was a 'flashacholic' when I had previous windows phones so I really considered a new Android phone. But frankly WP8 is a dream to use.

OP, sorry you had such a hard time. I had the same hard time the first times tried to set up my first iPad. This comes from being familiar with an OS. Other OSs feel 'wrong'. The 920 isn't for everyone, nor is WinPhone 8, nor is IOS or even Android.

Ain't choice great!
[Nokia Lumia 920] KentuckyHouse:
That's the thing... I don't shoot indoor shots often. The camera is something I use in my job and those are outdoor shots. Great phone, but the camera software needs some work.
[Nokia Lumia 920] jasongw:
Agreed, and far, FAR beyond iPhone, which I ran with for over 2 years.

As for setting up the Microsoft account, I don't see how anyone could have a problem with it. More importantly, if you know you have to set one up...do it on your PC, not your phone. That's just common sense, or so I'd guess.

Windows Phone 8 is, hands down, the best mobile OS I've ever used, and I've used them all.
[Nokia Lumia 920] awagner:
If that is the case, the Lumia has the most potential. The limitations are on the way the phone is processing the pictures (software) not a limitation on hardware. Hardware you can't change, software you can. Every phone today gets tweeked with after it's initial release. The 920 will be no different. The stabilization works, the low light performance works... Give them a chance to update and if it still doesn't perform... something better will be out there or coming out.
[Nokia Lumia 920] KentuckyHouse:
I absolutely agree the Lumia has tons of potential. And I'm sure they'll put out an update to the software to fix the camera. That's why I returned mine to wait until they do. I can promise you, once they fix it and the reviews start pouring in that the camera is good to go, I'll be picking another one up. Other than the camera software, this phone is amazing.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Slai:
Youre dont mean the focus-assist lighting? You know, the light that makes your camera able to focus on things it might normally be too dark for it to focus on? Cause thats not flash.

I never take a picture of my fingers. Also, pressing on the screen to take a photo could help you out if you feel its too heavy to hold while using the manual button.

Personally the WP8 experience is on par with the experience I had on my SGS3 with android 4.1.

I like the homescreen far more than on Android, and the way social and email is integrated with the native apps like messaging, contacts, etcetera.

I dont like IE10 as much as Chrome, but thats MOSTLY because of how IE10 handles doubletap to zoom and textwrapping plus certain messageboards. Why no mobile browser besides the microB-browser has had swirlzooming is beyond me.

All in all, the 920 is better for me than the SGS3, and Id choose it over SGS3 any day of the week.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Yaantra:
Got a Lumia 920 yesterday for my wife (not a technically savvy person at all!) Once she had her bearings (about 5 minutes navigating around) it took her less than 5 minutes to set up all her e-mails. There was no need to give any credit card information, and the camera is really good in low lights... compared it to my S2. Daylight shots are a little washed out, but READ! a camera firmware patch is coming soon. Tech specs on the camera are really good, and so is the screen... these two and the solid constructions are the reason i opted for this phone. Pretty sure others would agree.

And in conclusion, if it took you over an hour to set up email, it's a good thing you returned this phone. I would highly recommend staying miles away from Android or Windows devices; a Leap-frog or an Apple product would work best for you.

I read a post about how amazing Night mode was. So I played around with the scenes Close Ups, Cloudy, and Night Mode. So often, that stuff is just a gimmick, not on this phone!
[Nokia Lumia 920] AITT:
I returned my Lumia 900 cause it was hard for me to transition from Android and it was lacking. I gave the 920 and WP8 another chance and never looked backed. It's restricted compared to how you have so much customization you can do on Android, but the 920 is far from being some kind of wash out. The stabilization of the camera is one of the best I've seen. I've take shots compared to my HTC One X and the stability feature is awesome.

Personally I love a heavy set phone. Gives me the feel of sturdiness. I've always liked heavier phone.

The screen in day light is simply the best thing I have ever seen. The way the color tones adjust to bright light is incredible. Even with the top down on my car I can see the screen crystal clear.

The speaker on this thing is SUPER loud. Louder than my Nexus 7. The EQ on this thing absolutely smashes anything my One X Beats Audio could dish out. It's even better than any EQ feature on Android 3rd party apps like Power Amp. When I adjust the EQ it adjust.

It took me minutes to set up my Live, Google, LinkedIn, Yahoo, NetZero, and Hotmail Account. The integration is very nice in how it works together.

I have my quarrels with WP8, but it's super stable and nicely integrated with apps optimized for it's ecosystem.

IMHO WP8 is at the point of what Froyo was for Android. One of those landmark version that will get this OS out in the wild.

Sorry to hear you not like it, I can understand as I been there with the 900, but I can't justify it with the 920. The apps will come, the stability will come, the updates to software will come.

I've actually had the worse upgrade of JB on my Nexus 7 when they fixed the bugs of forgetting to December in the calendar. And to be quite frank my 920 process faster than my One X with the same processor and my Nexus 7. I'll never stop using Android, but I'll never say WP8 sucks. There's no way.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rikirix:
I agree with OP regarding the email client; 1 account is not enought. For the rest i can only say that i setup my phone in 5 minutes with no problems at all. Using my 920 since 2 weeks, coming from an iphone4 and no regrets at all.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
I've recently bought a Nexus 4 and although my S3 is superior in many ways, I cannot ignore the benefits of 2GB RAM over 1GB.

I'm not keeping the N4, but I'm considering selling my i9300 and buying an i9305.

Only problem is, there ain't much in the way of development or custom ROMs.

I know that phone was only released a couple of months ago, but is the dev scene likely to pick up, or will it stay minimal like it is now?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P.T.J0hnnie:
If you think that 1GB more ram and lte worth the upgrade do it.In my honest opinion,it doesn't worth it. I always close all the apps that are ram-eaters in order to save more battery.As a result 1GB more ram seem useless to me.Also I don't need lte. If you want to have many apps running in the background and/or lte you should upgrade but only If you can afford to pay the difference.:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
IMHO, active development is a great consideration when I choose a phone.

We don't live in a perfect world and bugs can occur, and sometime the companies are too lazy/doesn't give a **** about the users and don't fix the problem. This is why it's always good to choose a popular device that gets a lot of attention - and developers.

I also think that Samsung made a mistake when they released this phone with 1gb ram, when only 800mb is available and the system takes 400mb after clearing the ram, and they got a lot of annoying bugs. If N4 had a sd card slot I would sell my SGS3, get N4 and even making some profit on the way.

To sum up, I think you should stay with SGS3 or get another device with more ram and active development. My previous phone was SGS1 and it was really great. I wanted to upgrade myself and put a lot of money to buy SGS3, and I'm not 100% happy with this choice, and I'm 100% sure that my next device won't be Samsung because they really don't give a **** about the users and released a not so polished phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty12:
If you can trade it, go for it. Any person can delete stock Samsung APKs from /system/app, change graphics in APKs, use smali modifications published on the Internet, run it through dsixda's Kitchen to re-ODEX (if desired) and release it as an, uhm, new ROM.

You can get properly developed stuff like the Perseus kernel for the GT-I9305 and JKay's brilliant framework is said to run unofficially on the I9305.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcreativity:
I've noticed my Tab 2 sends an SMS as soon as it boots.

I've tried a hard reset, tried flashing the STOCK firmware and then doing a Hard Reset. It Still sends the msg.

I've tried freezing chat on in vain. Does it have anything to do with the Samsung Accounts app? The last time it sent a msg i got a pop up saying that my device was registered with Samsung.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fudgeboy:

Have you tried flashing a new ROM (e.g., CM9 or CM10)? If that doesn't clear it, NSA must have spooked your device...
