[Asus Transformer TF700] rvgraham:
The version of Chrome just released stopped me from either throwing this thing at a wall or (more likely) unlocking and flashing. Up until today, every browser, including Chrome, would load to 90%, then hang for ten seconds or so. If I tried to interact with the page in any way before it finished loading, I'd get the dreaded "xxxx isn't responding, Would you like to close it?.... Wait - OK".

This version (25.0.1364.169), will let me scroll around freely and start reading text while it continues loading pictures and ads. Amazing!

Of course, I will probably unlock and flash a rom eventually, I just wanted to use it for a few months with warranty and maybe wait for 4.2.2 to be released first. I have had very few complaints with the device besides that hanging/error message issue.

I still prefer the stock browser with the Labs 'swipe from edge' hidden address bar feature, but maybe something like that will come to Chrome eventually. Does anyone know how to auto-hide the address bar and tabs in this version of Chrome? Meantime I will use Chrome for all sites where full screen viewing is not vital.

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Hmm it's still very laggy compared to CROMI and stock browser I'm afraid.
[Asus Transformer TF700] iamborba:
I agree with sbdags cromi and stock browser combo is smoother and more responsive, even compared to latest chrome release . Actually I've found that to be the case for any other browser as well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] petervan25:
Seconded.

I too have a huge performance increase with the new chrome. I'm on CM10.1 so the improvements must not be specific to stock. Glad you posted this :good:; I'd given up on chrome because of laginess. Now I can have my "other devices tab" and good performance at the same time. Biggest noticeable change for me is (as you found) scrolling while pages load.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Noticed the Chrome update this a.m.

Tried it on the usual sluggish java heavy websites still not as snappy as stock under CROMi + B2Ram.

Chrome is slightly better with this update...it's just not a preference with me over stock or BOAT ad free.
[Asus Transformer TF700] king231:
For the people using chrome on stock its the Brest version so far. A lot of things got better. Page loading is a lot better when compared to the older version. And the scrolling is great too.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
I thought that browser2ram worked with Chrome as well, or was that a specially tweaked version?

@sbdags: I thought I'd seen a Chrome-capable version in CROMI before?

If this is the case, well, then Chrome is just still slower than stock anyway. I love speed dials, but I hate them being so limited in number. The sync capabilities were nice, but ever since the stock browser started supporting sync too I haven't looked back. I traditionally hated stock browser -- be it on Android or on Windows ;) -- but the current one on Android is pretty good with browser2ram attached.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rlm0n0:
Just thought id chime in on this. Unfrtunately cannot report the same decreased lag with the new Chrome update. In fact, id say it is worse. Unusable actually, which is no loss for me as i use stock...... which is a lag-machine as well, just slightly less so. Ironically, of all the websites i visit regularily, XDA seems to be the most taxing and almost always will produce a FC if i dont let it fully load before attempting to scroll. When i test a browser update i come here to see how fast the page loads!!!

At any rate, i deal with it and still love this tab....
[Asus Transformer TF700] yew123:
Same here
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
Agreed, google chrome is slow, and it wont allow flash, fck google chrome, a browser is useless without flash bc you can barely access any content that isnt text or pics, accessing content is the whole point of the internet. Browsing was a headache until i started using stock browser with B2RAM. browser2RAM more than doubles browsing speed, responsiveness, and smoothness. Stop dicking around with stock ASUS tf700, it is a waste of your time. All the time you spend waiting to browse the web can be spent on ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING.

Hey members of XDA,

I wanted your help in buying me a phone. I'm currently using my nexus prime and xperia mini. So, i want to replace mini with a phone within 300$ or about Rs. 16k. Helps would be appreciated :victory:
[General Topics] wuodland:
At that price the best you“ll find here in India is the Galaxy Nexus that too only via unofficial sources.

You can also have a look at Optimus L9 or Samsung Galaxy S Advance.
[General Topics] Lifehacker7:
Or an atrix2 by motorola. ( I'm not sure if it's still available). If you are into the custom kernel and stuff, ignore this. :D It's completely locked. But development is going on with same stock KERNEL.

he mentioned the nexus prime in the OP

I do believe the Nexus Prime was the Galaxy Nexus before the official announcement.

For 300 dollars you could probably get something like a Galaxy S2 or a HTC sensation

Well i don't want another nexus as i have a prime. So, earlier when i was on low budget i thought about going for xperia j or sola or HTC sesire X. But now as i have an increased budget i was looking for the xperia s or the sl. Galaxy s2 is a bit outdated ( no offense ) And as for s3 it's quiet expensive for my budget ( being around 30k ) and as for s4 it's gonna be around 35k-40k. Which is an outrageous amount for a 10th standard student like me :crying:

2) Camera. I need a camera capable of doing Full HD recording.

3) GPU to play games like RR3, MC4 or Nova 3.

4) Battery Backup. I currently last about 9-10 Hours with the way i use my device. I'm constantly on whatsapp and Kik!

5) Screen size is not an issue but above 3.5 inches. :p

Thanks for the replies :D

[General Topics] onyx1980:
Hey , In that price range , you have variety of choices , to narrow it down to just few ones , you gotta set some evaluation factors which can differ your desired device from the other ones. What,s your main factors?

I did mention my required stuff in an earlier post (check that out)

So what i narrowed down to-

1) xperia s or xperia sl (whichever is available)

2) Galaxy SII (it's a bit outdated btw)

3) HTC 8s (windows 8 phone)

3) Xiaomi mi 2 (miui ROM which i don't like)

cause i think you budget is already raising around 500$

[General Topics] lowandbehold:
First of all...there is no Nexus Prime...it is the Galaxy Nexus. Second, with your budget and the outrageous prices in India, anything you purchase will be a downgrade from your Nexus. I recommend staying with the Nexus and saving more money for the higher end offerings coming out this year.
[General Topics] ishanbhatnagr96:
In India it is referred to as Nexus Prime! I don't know why! Secondly i mentioned that my nexus is kinda broken. (The screen is cracked but i'll have sent it for repairs) Also, Xperia s has more ppi density and a higher megapixel camera. I guess it wouldn't be an upgrade to my nexus but an upgrade to my xperia mini. (i have 2 numbers) :)
[General Topics] FlipMorten:
Ok, they were new to me too, but I've read a lot good about them and seen many pictures of this phone, also on the inside. It's their fourth gen. in this series I think.

Basically, this time last year I only saw low-end junk when searching for phones and tablets from China (apart from a few larger ones), India and Philippines (who are moslt rebranded indian phones). But towards the 3rd and 4th quarter of last year they started to impress much more with IPS panels, competitive resolution and much more power. The previous chipsets from MediaTek, RockChip and Allwinner have not been the most impressive, but that has changed dramatically. Even superseeding the Exynos, Tegra and others. Obviously they will catch up now with tegra 4 and Exynos 5540, but at a very much higher price point.

But since you live in India, you also have access to brands such as Karbonn and others who give much more phone for your money compared to HTC and Sony. My wife has a rebranded Karbonn A9+ called Cherry Mobile Flare, which was very cheap ($98), they and other's probably have more powerful models within your budget.

How about Micromax Canvas HD? Very similar to the Basic version of the Jiayu G4, only with larger 5" screen. For prices, lookhere.
[General Topics] ishanbhatnagr96:
I have to agree with you :highfive:
[General Topics] ishanbhatnagr96:
I see you have a Motorola RAZR XT910. Is it a good phone? :confused:
[General Topics] FlipMorten:
I like it very much, but I sometimes wish I had waited a bit longer and gotten the Maxx version with bigger (3300mAh) battery.

My Motorola is not very powerful compared to the phones of 2012 and 2013, but it also has a lower screen resolution so it can still do a good job with games. It can play Dragon Slayer, Six Guns, Dead trigger, GTA III, NFS Hot Pursuit and some others of the great graphics games, but not The Dark Knight Rises. It also lagged a little on Asphalt 7 when I tried it, but I think that was more a compatibility issue before and others have reported it works now. I don't really play as much on my phone anymore, since I got a tablet, and therefore I think I will keep it longer because it's such a nice looking phone and very slim in my pocket. When I'm not playing so much anymore, it lasts very long on the battery.
[General Topics] ishanbhatnagr96:
The razr maxx is about 23k in Delhi. Worth that much and will it get a jb update?
[General Topics] FlipMorten:
JB will come to "selected markets", so if it doesn't come officially to India, you could use a ROM from UK or other. The official German ROM is already available. JB Thread on XDA here, with links to official ROMs and RSD lite flash tool. It's very simple to flash ROMs with RSD lite.

I also think a JB CM10 ROM is available, Youtube demonstration

Other customs ROMs here

If RR3 is Real Racing 3, then I can test it when I come home later.

I think these videos show gameplay of MC4 and Nova 3. Youtube is blocked here at work, so I can only find the links off Google.

Nova 3 on XT910

MC4 on XT910

How about the RAZR HD (XT925), is it available in India? A friend of mine just imported his from Germany, because Motorola pulled out of Norway - and just about everywhere else in Europa apart from UK and Germany. I hope they will return with the X phone.
[General Topics] onyx1980:
Sorry, I didn't see that.

Personally I love the xiaomi phones, specially because of the beautiful miui rom on them.

but for you From your list of choice. , since you don't like miui at the first place ,I would recommend the galaxy sii, since it has a pretty reliable hardware and is supported by developers pretty good. And also, the phone is still powerful even with today's standards . Of course it's kinda outdated and lost its appeal.

xperia s on the other hand has a beautiful design, and is really appealing, but you might not be too happy about the viewing angels and color saturations since the galaxy nexus would top that, and also the hardware ain't that powerful, I mean it might be a litle bit more powerful than galaxy nexus, but from what my friend has experienced, it's no match for galaxy sii on gaming. Also keep in mind, hd resolution means the gpu has to work twice as much as with a wvga (or whatever) resolution , and might not act as powerful.

don't know about the htc 8s since it is a windows phone, I love the wp user interface, but the lack of apps is a huge deal breaker for me.

So to sum it up, according to your love for HTC and Sony , xperia s or sl would be a good (not ideal) choise for you.

Of course I don't know the phone's prices on India, so I can't suggest any other device beside your given list. Bear in mind that in my country, galaxy s2 costs about 100$ more than xperia s , and HTC 8s costs around 200$ more. And of course the xiami phone literally doesn't exist here. ;)

Some result in bootloop!

Anypne knows anything about editing the

Peeps, many devices wont have stable ics

cyanogen. We could help them.

So far Ive found:

Install cm9 theme on sd card and then

apply it so even if it reboots, it wont be a

boot loop.

If the statusbar fails to appear/ is blank,

launch screen filter or any app that has a

notification.

Changing the density helps in many

Like Dragonli said, itś a carrier setting. There are special codes to do so. Don't know if they are different from carrier to carrier. Normaly the values are between 5 and 30 seconds.

Just take a look at your providers homepage and search for the string.

You can also try

**61*Phonenumber**Timevalue in sec (5,10,15,20,25 oder 30)# to turn it on

##61# to turn it off

*#61# to check.

This are the numbers for Germany. Hope that it works...
