HTC wouldn't need such a big DEV network if HTC were so slow at releasing Sense updates and were so bad at backward supporting other phones and being generally slow, don't get me wrong I loved so many things about HTC sense. And I have just moved to Sony from HTC after the announcement today about the HTC One, lack of network support, micro sd.

Today I had a play with the new Sony Xperia Z, and I can't understand the comments made about the screen, it is fine to view from almost all angles that I tried, colours and contrast looked good, maybe it's not the best out there but not as bad as people are making out.

one fugly phone

htc is one fugly phone i know its all about individual taste and all our taste varies but i would bet my life that the majority of the public would vote the sony xperia z a clear winner that said we can all agree that the specs on the z are nothing to sneeze at and i know when im out in the market for a car i make my decision not just on performance but also on syle no point in having a bmw if the engine sucks and no point in having a mediocre car if it doesnt look the part so my point is its human nature to want what looks good first to most of us then we go for performance so i know that the sony xperia z will out sell the htc m7 no problem. those of you who have decided to purchas the sony xperia z like i have than welcome to a great user experience with the looks to match. and those of you who opted for the htc good luck im sure htc will be broke soon as they have not been doing so well and i doubt that this phone will revive their already dying sales so enjoy your future updates lol.

Why are people still defending the xz?

I said it had outdated specs when it was announced. & said it was a 2012 phone despite sony trying to label it as a 2013 phone . And that the htc one would be the first true 2013 phone i was labelled a troll.

Now most people agree with me but some people still insist on saying xz is ok. Seriously!!!!

Xz is outdated specs htc one is cutting edge tech.

Deal with it
[Xperia Z General] decentgi:
get over it

the extra power that the htc has isnt really enough to pursuade most people that its a better device i go for what is aesthetically pleasing no point in having a troll of a girl friend even if she can do the hundren metre sprint in record time, i myself prefere a hot babe and dont mind if she is a little lazy just as long as she does it for me its all good and the fact of the matter is that majority of the population feel the same way as i do, not saying the htc isnt a phone with great specs far from it but like i said htc design is flawed compared to the xperia z thats a fact

[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Because they're more detailed and processed better. HTC is trying to convince us all that MPs don't matter - and they're right in many aspects, but first photos taken with their UltraPixel camera are just average and prove that in fact resolution does matter if we're not using quality optics ( which we won't ever use in phones cause there's no space for it ), so for me it's marketing blah, at least for now ( until more tests are done )

[Xperia Z General] Timaustin2000:
Why I am NOT cancelling my Xperia Z pre-order!

Hi guys and gals,

Seems people are getting all flustered again. Sure, the HTC One looks a fine phone but there are a few very good reasons that I'm not going to suddenly ditch my Xperia Z pre-order. And these are they:

1) I'm really not taken with the HTC One. Honestly. (a) It's made of Aluminium, which will scratch to buggery in next to no time. (b) I'm not sold on the design, either - as someone else has already commented, it looks like a BBZ10 from the front and a Sony Xperia P from the back. To me, it's looking brash and over-stated. (c) From what I've seen, I'm not at all fond of Sense 5, either. That BlinkFeed nonsense is a waste of valuable screen real-estate (although I do understand that you can turn it off). The app tray looks dire and it seems lacking in functionality, overall. Couple that with the nasty looking static app bar at the bottom and,... well, why would I get a phone just to immediately change the launcher?

2) For all the talk of the Xperia Z's "dire" screen, I've just been watching a Recombu side-by-side comparison of the two and the XZ didn't look like the HTC screen was eating it for dinner. The Sony was touch darker, maybe, but holding its own, at least from the front. I'll be doing my own side-by-side, of course, so this may change. I've spent quite some time with the Z screen and I think it's a fine performer.

3) I'm not yet sold on the 4 "ultrapixel" thing. I was expecting a stacked RGB sensor, not just a lower resolution sensor. Early images certainly have jaw-dropping clarity and virtually no noise but you can see the resolution dip. I'm the kind of guy who likes to run photo's through Photoshop, crop, re-size and work with: I don't think the One camera will give me the options to do this. I know and understand that the Xperia Z camera looks, according to some reviews, disappointing (or, at least, Sony's software is too heavy on the compression) but I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt and do my own tests before I write it off.

I have more reasons but you probably want a break. Go and have a cup of tea, i may be back with more later ;)

Basically, though, I feel that the Xperia Z deserves a shot in my hand and some time on the road before writing it off as a bad job. And, if I feel differently after 7 days, I'll simply take it back and get a refund. Why would I cancel my pre-order if I can do that AND decide for myself?
[Xperia Z General] koooldude:
Completely agree with you. The HTC doesn't look quite as professional as the Sony, although it's definitely a nice looking phone. Performance benchmarks don't matter as much as actual, real life lag. And I'm not 100% taken with the new sense either, although i used to like it. I think i'll keep monitoring both boards for the moment. The day after the xperia was released it looked 'perfect' so im sure after a week the flaws, like with any phone, will be found and we can compare more fairly. We shall see :) I won't be cancelling my pre-order either
[Xperia Z General] Codrea:
Stupid sony doesn't make a better screen. Oh God why?

Xz will be perfect if they make screen like htc one
[Xperia Z General] nasiayam:
yes yes yes htc one is faster and better, i get your point, kindly go to htc one thread and spread you love there

i can't stand seeing ppl saying how xperia z is outdated now, there's always a new phone tomorrow

personally i prefer xperia z due its design, looking forward to having expandable storage and sms-ing while taking a shower ;)
[Xperia Z General] Codrea:
Go home samxoll you are drunk, if you go about specs specs and ****ing specs again, just go for samsul you got the most monster processor (octa they said :D) but they will be useless.

Specs are nothing if software is ****!!
[Xperia Z General] JPWOA:
You are a funny guy...

The HTC One is so hi tech that the S600 SoC has the same GPU (the better numbers on the glbench are due to better CPU and faster RAM) and ha NO RADIO on it! And I don't mean FM radio, I mean Wifi, 3G, LTE...NOTHING!!!

So what HTC has done is put another chip in it! Everybody says that S600 consume less power and it's probably for tablets but with a separated LTE chip this can consume more battery and in the end it's the same has the S4Pro...or even worst!

And it has very limited supported bands. From what I read, only the 800Mhz LTE is supported!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] GTDarthYoda:
I got a friend with a Captivate that is eating data and he doesn't know why. Any ideas why?

Also something I wanted to try was just flashing a new rom, idk if I'm blind but I was looking for a JB rom with touch wiz. Is there one?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] m1batt1:
Captivate or Captivate Glide? Either way there are apps out there that will monitor and even restrict data usage so have a look in play store. Alternatively if there is high data usage there is also likely high power usage/ battery drain. You could install better battery stats and that would help track down whats causing wakelocks and using the most battery.

As far as a touchwiz rom I haven't seen any for the Glide,but I'm new here. As for the standard Captivate I do believe there is a touchwiz rom but I can't recall what its called at the moment.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] GTDarthYoda:
It is the Glide.

Got another friend with the regular captivate which I have played with >.< Sorry for the confusion.

If there is no jb touch wiz rom I won't worry about it too much. He's probably just gonna buy a new phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djteotancolis:
I want to root my S3 for editing the APN, at this time i dont want to install custom roms etc! so my question was once i root the phone from this thread, i don't have to install a custom stock rom right? i can just use the current rom that comes with the phone and have root access? and also i can just go through step 1 and 2 of the toolkit right? or do i have to install a custom recovery also?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lvgdgts:
Correct, you can root the phone and do nothing else. It does not require a different ROM,Unlocking or custom recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djteotancolis:
Thanks Buddy :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ahkhands:
You can root your phone without having to install a rom or even a custom recovery.

i was inserting my nano sim into the phone with the use of sim adaptor to check my nano sim's text messages, after then i was removing the sim adaptor with the nano sim in it, it felt like it is stucked, i was forced to get it by pushing the sim going out through the use of a needle, after it was forcedly removed, looks like a pin or two bent outward, i was trying to return it back to place until 3 pins were suddenly cutted.

now shown on the left side of the picture is my s3, and on the right is my a picture of my friend's note 2.

my s3 was supposed to be like that on the note 2 that it still has 6 pins.

my phone won't read any sim now

how much does it cost to let this be repaired in samsung centre? i hope there's still part that is available, i think this part is called sim card holder flex, but not so sure though,

or is there any way i could fix this by myself? like by adding some pin-like material(the gold one) so that it would still be attached with the sim and allows the phone to read it?

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpnagidi:
Got my galaxy 3 for 1,5 year. Light usage, GPS rarely, 3g never, wifi only to download or update, no Internet, don't spend hours talking either. Battery lasted for about three days. About a month ago I installed the GO Launcher, looked nice, just to check it out. Removed it in a couple of days. Possibly a coincidence but right after the battery's life dropped to less than a day. Well I thought it's time was up so I ordered a new one (XDA will not allow a link from me yet) cause the genuine costs about 20 euros in Greece.

When I got the battery it was half full so I charged it fully - not for 8 hours or so- and then... it lasted for about a day. Drained it completely and recharged fully...lasted one day. Downloaded Battery Calibration and calibrated ...lasted one day. Let it charge for more than eight hours and then calibrated...lasted one day. I'm fed up! Should I consider it a lousy (chinese) battery problem and look for another battery or does anyone have another idea?

Would wiping everything out and installing the ROM again make a difference? I'm using Kyrillos' 9.6 JPU
[Off-topic] islandjat:
Im writing this post because I think im being drawn to apple. I love all the features of android and rooting and all that good nerdy stuff, but music for me is huge. I think whether a lot of us want to agree on this or not, but itunes is beating google play. Googles music is not very user friendly when buying music and downloading it. You are only given 3 times to download a song from the web, and for unlimited downloading of the song you nust download your entire library with it. As for google match, it only STREAMS 320 kbs. You can't download a higher bit rate song that's been matched. Which is a big downside I don't hear anyone talking about. For itunes, you pay 25 dollars I think but at least you can download the higher bit rate. Plus, they're program for mac and windows is super easy. I think a lot of people who have android still use itunes because of this.

When I went to an apple store (against my will) I just glanced at their iphone 5 to mock it as many of us would've. When I was going through the music, I noticed it sounded and looked much better on it. Now, granted they were probably a higher bit rate, it still irritated me. I think google should get a program that can edit music and match with DOWNLOADS, because if not im afraid im going to have to go to apple. The simplicity of the music outweighs my love for android. As soon as you connect your iphone to the computer, it automatically syncs your library with itunes. No duplicates or any of that, no installing isync and spending so many unnecessary hours...ugh. Just thought I'd say what was on a lot of minds and get some outside opinion.
