[Galaxy S I9000 General] knuckles1978:
Some of you are going to say 'that's old news', but for the benefit of people like myself who maybe missed it at the time, I'm going to reiterate from something which was brought up a long time ago in the xda forums, found by accident in posts from a year or two ago.

There's this thing called fast dormancy. It's like a network power saving feature, which some networks don't support, and I found a lot of people saying that when disabled, can actually help battery life on 3G. I'm not going to go into that now, if you want more info Google it..

So it was as simple as adding a line into your build prop. "ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule" with a value of "0" and rebooting.

I wasn't expecting much, but did it just for the hell of it. I've not really used my 3G data much since I did this about 4 hours ago, but I left my data switched on, which is usually enough to drain the battery a bit anyway, I'd expect to lose 7 or 8 percent normally just being connected to data. Just checked battery drain. Hasn't moved 1%??!?! UPDATE: It is still using a bit, but definitely seems better.

Also..... I've speed tested my data many times before. Usually in my house, from sitting in the same chair, in the same room, I always get say 2Mb plus or minus 0.5 Mb. Well guess what. I ran a speed test and got 5.5Mb!!! So I ran a few more and it never went below 4Mb.

Can someone please shed some light on wtf is going on here? lol :)

Edit: just ran another speed test. 5.26 down, 1.25 up. Something has changed here, I'm telling you. Maybe o2 have switched on a new mast right outside my window ( just kidding, there's no new masts, because there's a mast fairly close to me, I know where it is)... I've ran loads of these tests with the same phone, same network, same room, and same ROM before, and never got half of the speeds that I'm consistently hitting now. Maybe the network has been upgraded or something and its just coincidental, that wouldn't explain why my battery life on 3G does seem to be improved though..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] knuckles1978:
Anybody else fancy running a speed test, adding the line into your build prop, then rebooting, trying another speed test, and checking out your 3G battery life as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] L0kiii:
Tried it but unfortunately no noticeable difference in my case (on KPN network in NL). Thanks for the suggestion tho!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] knuckles1978:
No problem. Maybe there has been some kind of improvement made to my network then. After having a think about it, if I am now getting a much better signal than I was it would actually explain the increase in speed (obviously), but also it may explain the battery life increase too due to my phone not hunting for a signal as much.

That's why I was wanting someone else to try, so thanks. I didn't realise it was possible in the real world to get 5.5 megabits from HSDPA. I wonder what the theoretical maximum is from it, and the real world maximum..

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heatshiver:
I'm not trying to figure which one is better, as I'm sure that would just be a discussion meant for disaster. But instead, I am wondering if anybody out there has tried out the two? Have they found features on one to be more beneficial than on the other, or possibly absent altogether? Any cons such as bugs, errors, wants/needs that people may want to address? Anything that would give a comparison to these camera mods would be much appreciated.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dibby6:
I may sound inpatient but i'm sick of waiting months for android devices i want (asus transformer infinity). I currently have a wp htc mozart which im dying to give up for a nexus 4. I know we have no clue about when will see more stock on google play but should i wait or spend an extra $150 on ebay.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andr01d3:
Don't buy that on eBay if you don't want to loose your money...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
I would day wait. It's a while now since Google stopped accepting orders, surely it can't be long now till they open up again?

Up to you though, of course.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arian009:
I personally was also tempted to buy one off ebay! Some of the prices weren't actually that bad. Considering the fact that google does charge you for the shipment you can get one off ebay for about £300, I even saw one sold on auction for £280. However coming to think about it more, the question remains that in case of a fault with the phone, replacement or customer service who do you deal with? The seller or ebay? Surely it has to be the seller since was bought off play store under his/her name to his/her address right?!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotzaDroid:
Just remember that Google will not handle any warranty claims if you're not the original purchaser and that purchase was from Google play. They'll tell you to go to LG for any issues.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
Wait. That's what I'm doing. I doubt they will ever release it in the Netherlands, but I'm just going to import it from another country.

I keep my eye on ebay though. Sometimes you can get a good deal, but most of the time the price goes up pretty fast.

i sold and unopened new nexus 4 on ebay. i set it up as a bid selling item, and was able to sell it for 475$

what sucks tho is that ebay took 45 dollars of that sale plus paypal got 14$. in the end i didnt really make much more than what i paid for. I wont be selling electronics on ebay again.

Got my N4 today! Like you I started considering getting it off ebay but then came across Carphone Warehouse deals and I got it for £379 16GB with £10 pound top up.

PROS:

-Got it in Store so no Shipping cost

-Got it it in Hand today

-Resealable price considering they are sold on Ebay over £400

-14 Days return and refund (So if in 14 days google restocks.. ;))

-It's Carphone Warehouse a trusted retailer and in case of a issue you ain't dealing with a seller on Ebay!

CONS:

-I'm in UK so don't know about other countries

-Very few branches actually have it (If you live in London I got mine in Kilbern High Road) Otherwise go on the store locator find all the stores around you and use the stock checker to see if it's available
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iCalculate:

BTW its only 28days exchange policy you can't get a refund for it only one exchange if faulty

Hello,

I have buy a new S3 LTE and i won´t buy a good black gel cover.

In Portugal i don´t have a big offer off this kind of accessories.

Some people tell me the following brands are good:

Urban Armor Case

Otterbox

Incipio

Seido

Case Mate

Skinomi

SGP

I saw in the youtube the video off the Otterbox Defender and it´s look nice, but the screen protector appears to make some reflex and lose a litle o f touch with the screen... I´m Wrong? It´s possible do not use the original screen protector of the defender and use a simple screen protector?

I see the video of Urban Armor Case and look very nice, but a don´t find any company that shipped to Portugal.

Some one have some suggestions?

thanks,

Too bad Google Play looks at the build.prop (?) to check what DPI the phone has.

It would have been great if this app and framework had fixed the incomptability problem for us with a lower DPI by just being able to change the DPI of Play.

Nice though to be able to change the DPI of Contacts and the other apps that don't scale well with a lower DPI!

•For per-app configuration, after activation the module Xposed app setting open Xposed app setting apk and chose the apk you want to change the DPI for or you want to use it in tablet mode, here is screenshots for some apps configurations:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] longice:
It's really a matter of personal preference, but I prefer 240, 600x1024 and tablet mode for chrome, e-mail and some other apps. Having an issue with Gmail though, it won't fill the screen width, leaving a white field on both sides of the message field...
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JB-007:
Thanks for your answer

And do you need to reboot device each time you change settings?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] longice:
No, usually not. You just turn the tweak on with the ON/OFF switch (after selecting the app), then setting DPI, resolution and tablet/no tablet mode. After setting this, press save and say yes to close the app. Then press play button and it should open the app with tweaked settings.

If somehow the app is not changed, try opening app settings and manually force close it. Then reopen.

It's not always that results are shown immediately. So sometimes you might have to reboot (just to be sure). Typically for system files/apps.

Remember to get yourself a nandroid backup of your system before messing too much, though :)
