[Xperia Z General] RCJ89:
I chose white after looking at both colours on dummy phones in my local three store and after getting peoples opinions on whihc colour looks nicer and everyone said the black is lovely but white is better and I agreed. I have had too many black phones in the past anyway.
[Xperia Z General] Aka91:
OH My Love!

Dont keep me waiting for so long

please get shipped to me!

:D :P
[Xperia Z General] MasK:
I hate fingerprints and I've had phones with piano black finishing and they looked terrible, esp after handling it in a hot humid country.

So.. I'd go for the white one. Fingerprints would be less visible (I do intend to keep it naked)

Purple? It's not bad.. but kind of a controversial colour. Would have prefer Sony to have blue and red instead of something in between.. LOL
[Xperia Z General] RCJ89:
Silver or grey would have been ideal colour of choice for me.
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Actually I think Xperia Z in aluminum-silver or a'la Samsung 'titanium-grey' colour would look amazing ;)
[Xperia Z General] dibdin:
Cherry Red would be my pick..
[Xperia Z General] MasK:
Well.. whatever the color is, I'm just glad the face is pure clean black. I love how my Wife's OneX looks. Galaxies on the other hand have color on the face which goes together with the black screen, thus making it look cluttered. Personal opinion though.. not sure how many folks here agree with me.

Oh yes.. the ZL has color on the face..
[Xperia Z General] xiFIL:
+1!
[Xperia Z General] MasK:
Ya guys do know that Red is available only for the ZL now...?
[Xperia Z General] robogo1982:
Black.

I love the monolithic looks.
[Xperia Z General] parapaul:
White for me. I always really liked the look of white phones.

I think the purple is awesome but I don't think I'd want to be stuck with it - I'll buy a colourful case if I feel the need.
[Xperia Z General] samven582:
Definitly the black one. It reminds of Sony's monolithic design philosophy
[Xperia Z General] garychencool:
Black because it looks so sleek
[Xperia Z General] -]Megacharge[-:
I chose black. I think the white looks great though, very very nice, but I'm worried about discoloration over time.
[Xperia Z General] paul-c:
Finally decided on purple. It'll be a conversation starter, that's for sure. Still trying to figure out why the poll says purple, because it's a Sony, though. Is purple a color that's often used by them?

Sent from my Panasonic ELUGA
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Not that often, but while other companies offer black, white, blue, red etc - for sony the trinity is ofter white, black and purple.
[Xperia Z General] :
Must admit, the more I wait for this phone to come out the less I'm wanting it.. no idea why. :/ - But I got the White version on order.
[Xperia Z General] glydersid:
Black definitely, with white casing. I don't understand why there's purple really, instead of the more common blue and red.
[Xperia Z General] xl VipeR lx:
Sony use purple alot. I had a purple vaio and also came across a few other variants.

Also their backgrounds sometimes are purple

Sv: [POLL] XPERIA Z: Who's getting it? Which color looks better?

Have a order on both black and white, if rumors are true it will come here around 7/3. But seems m7 will come short after and the new galaxy not to far away.

So will be fun see what one I will use later on tho..:)

[Xperia Z General] xiFIL:
Same i feel like that :( They should release it real quick! Most of us will find a reason not to buy it if we wait too long, if it was out by now 60% of us would have bought it!
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Everything become less exciting when you wait for it longer ;) Also, so many negative posts with people trying to tell you there is something wrong with this phone, even though it might not be the case... if you keep reading "this is wrong, that is wrong, deal breaker, disappointing" it affects you somehow.

But that's good. If you're not really "excited" about it anymore, then you can think clearly and if you still want the phone - you will be happy with it right ? ( ok, that sounds like cheap philosophy, but hey, it works ;) )
[Xperia Z General] xiFIL:
Exactly!! There will be alot of fanboys about, people will always have something wrong to say, i just hope sony release it soon, cant waittt :|!
[Xperia Z General] :
Yep but decided im sticking with it. Only got the iPhone 5 at the moment, sold my S3. Like to have both Android and iOS, switch when I get bored of one then. :)
[Xperia Z General] parapaul:
Black AND white? Do you plan to sell one on again to cover the cost?
[Xperia Z General] stiffi2011:
I'm shifting like the wind. Then again, I've had about a dozen phones over the year. I always find that "fatal flaw" that convinces me what i have isn't good enough.

That flaw du jour is the camera. I thought the Z with the new sensor would be great...still hoping it is. The daily talk about the M7 (One) and the Nokia EOS (Lumia 1000) has me re-thinking though.

I've always liked Sony. I'm sporting an ION right now. I'd love for them to knock it out of the park.
[Xperia Z General] :
Never owned a Sony phone, always been Apple, HTC and Samsung. I think the Z camera will be good enough, its battery life I'm concerned about but im sure Stamina Mode will make the difference, plus I want a water proof phone with good build.
[Xperia Z General] craftycarper1:
Can't see the battery being much of a problem TBH, as crap as the One X battery is, on a custom ROM i frequently get 2+ days out of mine with fair use, think i've managed over 4 days with 2 and a half hours screen on time, not massive use i know, but being off work since before Christmas and being at home connected to wifi constantly, not the heaviest of use but good times are easily achievable.

So i would imagine very good times once we get stuck into the ROM side of the Z.:D

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] vikramkhalsa:
Awesome! Thanks. This was one of the reasons I used handcent/other 3rd part mms apps because I wanted a dark theme. This looks great! Just one personal thing that I don't like/want the contact pic next to every message in the actual chat (not the conversation list). Any way to add an option to remove that?

Also is there a dark version of the default jb email app? (not gmail)

I found some but they seem to be only for CM10 variants, not stock..
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] kypeth:
It's working well for me on rooted stock with franco kernel!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jfunk23crx:
Just what I've been looking for! Running well on Muzzy's ROM.

Anyone know of a themed email apk to match this?

and I like the gmail widget showing the background though

Anyone know of a similar dark theamed contacts?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] LRC1710:
Can't get the mms app to work man... After I flash it it says "messaging app has stopped", when I restore the stock mms it works fine, then I delete it and reflash yours and I get the same error...
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Deeco7:
Great! Now we need a Dark Holo 'People' app. ;)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] navyvet420:
How can we get the holo theme to stay? Delete old email apk first then install this one?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] kenshinta:
alternative installation procedure

Instead of this and deleting / overwriting files, you can do:

push the desired apk to the /systtem/framework folder

renaming said apk to the equivalent apk in the app folder (ie Mms.apk, whatever gmail is in the app folder)

chmod 0644, chown 0.0 if required

restart

it should have the same effect, havent experienced any cons to this.

i think i saw this done at the original thread by jase, always wanted to ask why this works.

Now, if for any reason you wish to revert to stock/ previous, just delete the apk at framework then reboot then its done.

So to get this right.

I want to flash this firmware from Sammobile

It doesn't matter which firm im on as long as i use odin to flash this as pda? right?

sorry for not getting it straight away.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiedster:
Just a quick heads up for anyone with the same problem.

I could flash the aforementioned .tar. with odin.

On booting it got stuck in a loop (of course).

I could go to recovery and do a wipe.

After reeboot everything went just fine.

Hello everyone

I am here mostly for opinions and some advice. I have used the iPhone for a long time. A few months ago I thought I should give Samsung and android a shot. I really loved my device [The note 10.1] and I'm thinking I should get the Note II. So what do you guys think about the device and does it come in handy? Appreciate any advice! Thanks :D

i have just got my note 2 not had a chance to use it yet as awaiting the micro sim card. i love android and hate apple so i would be a useless person to ask if you should leave your iphone.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lee yun khong:
Just go ahead mate...you will found that you should jump to note2 more early after you try it.

-same performance with iphone 5. ( i mean the ui smoothness and phone responsive)

-spen ( im sure you enjoy this exclusive features with your note 10.1)

-Battery life. At the moment in the whole mobile insdustry only motorola razr maxx able to compete with note2 in terms of battery performance. With 3100mah + low batery consumption quadcore proccesor you will found that iphone 5/4s totally not at the same level.

Other than mentioned abouve i dont think i need to explain more, since you was owner of note 10.1, im sure you knew clear how friendly user android os could be. No limitation of your os, could share any file with other friend with wifi direct/tap pouch. You 100% own what you bought. Not like i product just keep limitation to the user and their os is close sources as well.

Don't even think twice. If you like smaller screen, then try find out i9305 (not i9300) but there isn't big difference.

This was my best ever decision to have it. (After iphone 3g, 3gs, 4g, then Note. Finally landed at Note 2) With this perfect sized screen and stuff it is unbeatable.

Btw guys today I've played NFS Most Wanted on my friends PS Vita. Then compared game play, graphs, etc. by playing the same game in Note 2. Note 2 seems would be a better mobile console than Vita in my opinion :p .

Hi Guys,

I just made this little thred because i know some people want to use his device like MTP device whit usb debugging on, whithout turned off.

This is how:

Go To:

C:\Windows\INF\" with regards to the file "wpdmtp.inf"

Under [Generic.NTx86], you add your devices.

For my entry it was:

[Generic.NTx86]
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP

; LG-P970
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_1004&PID_61F9&REV_0216

[Generic.NTamd64]
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP

; LG-P970
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_1004&PID_61F9&REV_0216

- Now Force the reinstall by updating the driver.

Follow the setup driver and finish.

This should work for any other device (Nexus 7, 10, 4, HTC, Samsung....) that has issues with USB debugging and no MTP with working ADB, locate the appropriate VID and PID and replace my entry. Force the reinstall by updating the driver, and pointing to that specific INF.

Regards, Jamm.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Omario-242:
Hey fellow 4X HD owners :)

I have a question regarding the bootanimation:

The change of the bootanimation itself is easy,

but it seems that there is another "animation" (actually just lg logo)

in front of it; is this kernel related or can we change it?

And related to the shutdownanimation:

The zip of the shutdownanimation in system/media is obvious,

but can I remove it or do I have to replace it?

PS: D4's bootanimation app installs the bootanimation to data/local,

why does the android system search for it in there on ICS?

(I know it's been there n GB 2.4.5 or something)

Greetings and thank you all :)

So suddenly I noticed I wasn't hearing anything when I would get a text. So I pressed volume up. It was max. Went into settings all volumes max. Tried switching ringtone, no sample. Tried alert and alarms, same thing.

It's happened a few times now. So I started back tracking and removing most recently installed apps. When I got to Vonage. Everything worked as normal. So I reinstalled Vonage and checked it's settings to see if there was anything conflicting or interfering. I unchecked notifications. And since it has been just fine. But again today it's done it.

Removing Vonage returns sounds / volume back to my settings.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mjben:
Are you really asking what RAM is?

Dear dead kittens. Puppy's. And even narwhales.

sent from a secret underground bunker
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] karasuhebi:
RAM = Random Access Memory

When they told you your phone comes with 2GBs of memory, they were referring to the RAM. RAM is the memory your phone uses to run things temporarily, such as apps. The more RAM you have the better usually, since you can do more things at once without bogging yourself down.

What you probably mean by your RAM being high is probably the amount of RAM you're using at any given time. If it's always high, that probably means something's running in the background using it all up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ceelos09:
To further add to this, you really shouldn't worry about high RAM usage as well. The only time you should worry is when your phone begins to lag heavily. Otherwise, the Android OS itself is very efficient and will usually manage your RAM closing off apps that have been cached if it requires more memory to run a new process.
