Finally! Woohoo! Looking forward to receiving it. Not going to be in but hopefully will be able to pick it up from the local sorting office!

We are pleased to inform you that your order with www.affordablemobiles.co.uk has now been despatched from our Distribution Centre via our next day delivery service.

Here's hoping the media link comes with it as well!
[One (M7) General] sb09:
When did you order, and was it silver or black? Picked it up yet? Funny how these small wonderful items of modern technology have the ability to reducing us to acting and thinking and behaving like young kids at Christmas eh! I'm as guilty as anyone (and I'm a kick in the backside off 50)! ;)
[One (M7) General] nickabbott:
I ordered the silver model on the 9th of April. Had confirmation on the 10th and then was asked for proof of ID on the 11th. I sent it straight in on the 11th and confirmed by email and calling that I had done. Then on the 14th I had an email saying my order will be shipped when stock comes in (even tho it did about 5 times since then, I got it shipped for today). I've not got it yet no I'm going back to my house in half an hour and hoping there's a card I can take to my local post office to collect it. Fingers crossed!

It's definitely true! I generally aren't fussed about new phones during my contract because I know I can't get one but once my renewal is up I just can't decide what to get and once a decision is made I just have to have it! I'd say I've waited 3 weeks since I clicked buy and it's being delivered and I only did it because the deal was so good. Hopefully get 40 cash back. Maybe a media link and only 26 a month plus 30 for the phone seemed really good for a phone less than a month old! It's a month and a bit by the time I get it mind but I still think its a good deal

Really surprised I managed to hold off ringing them every day until it came!
[One (M7) General] sb09:
So true, patience goes out the window when top-quality items such as the HTC One come to the market! Once you've committed to it, the brain struggles with trying to work out why it's not immediately available in your hands. As you say, there's a price to pay (reduced stock availability) when securing great deals from places such as Affordable Mobiles etc. Still, I'd rather have my patience tested, than fork out a significant upfront cost to most of the main suppliers which could be avoided!

Sadly for me, I've got a bit more waiting to do as I did't order until the 17th!
[One (M7) General] nickabbott:
Hopefully yours will be arriving soon then! :)

I agree though the deal was worth the wait. I had to go collect mine from the parcel force depot as I wasn't at home when they arrived. I'm typing this on my new one and it seems great so far. I also got the media link as well so was worth getting it from affordable mobiles as nobody else had that deal either. I have noticed a couple of build quality issues. A few very light chips as the screen meets the bottom speaker but nothing I can't live with to be honest.

It seems worth the wait to me anyway! Loving the nice big screen! :D
[One (M7) General] sb09:
Glad you're enjoying the moment, though these minor build issues seems sadly to be a recurring theme. Be great if you quickly stop even noticing them though!
[One (M7) General] vizzy:
This morning HTC one silver was number 1 in top selling deals, black was number 6. Now neither of them are anywhere to be seen ?
[One (M7) General] nickabbott:
I've just checked and it seems the £26 T-Mobile offer has been removed :( It was a very good deal! It might be back soon but linking through from uswitch gives a deal not found message.

Maybe AF got far too much interest they've had to revoke it :(

Here's hoping it's back soon for others to get it.
[One (M7) General] vizzy:
Yeah. Tbh I can see what it had so much interest, if it wasn't for that id of just gone to carphone warehouse.
[One (M7) General] MojoPin:
Interesting that the £26 deal is gone now...soooooo glad I was patient enough to wait it out. There was one offer with O2 that wasn't a million miles off, but glad I went with this one just for the unlimited internet.
[One (M7) General] scotcruz:
Yeah the unlimited internet was the main reason for me too... Cannae beat it

Everybody getting their hd links?
[One (M7) General] vizzy:
Just received my dispatch email :) .... Any idea when I should receive it due to the bank holiday ? .... It was black btw.
[One (M7) General] MojoPin:
Mine was next day after receiving the email at 2pm on a Sunday - check the tracking later on tonight and it should tell you. If the courier delivers on Saturdays then I'm sure you'll get it! On a side note, it looks like the situation is actually getting worse for AM - their Facebook page is worse than ever! Glad to be well clear of them, now...
[One (M7) General] kingkobra74:
Out of interest, when did you order your black vizzy?
[One (M7) General] sb09:
On it's way from AM

Ordered a silver on 17 April, got despatch email today for delivery tomorrow 4 May, which is kinda nice as the Diztronic cover arrived yesterday! Another convert from iPhone to Android - missed the customisation possibilities that I used to enjoy on Windows Mobile - could HSPL and flash a new ROM with eyes shut on WM/HD2, but now got a steep learning curve with rooting and flashing on Android - love a challenge though. :D

Quick update: Phone's arrived (yet to unbox it), but no media link! Earlier posts suggested orders up to and including 18 April would receive the free media link but, unless it comes separately, I didn't get it!
[One (M7) General] vizzy:
4th of April. Around there anyway, maybe the 3rd
[HTC One S] RussianBoots:
Hey everyone. A sad time indeed. My 1yr old doing his exploring has thrown my beloved one s down the stairs and broke her :( the case cracked open and some insides were broken. Only faults I can find so far are that my sound no longer works. Speaker nor headset so I am looking to replace her. I bought her the first day T-Mobile released the one s and loved her since having rooted her and running a great 4.2.2 ROM on her since she never left ICS.

Though it brings me to near tears to ask this, does anyone have any recommendations for a new phone? I heard something about a new HTC one series and other thoughts are nexus 4 and galaxy s4. I prefer top of the line devices but easy to root and good ROM supports are a must.
[HTC One S] RussianBoots:
No replies? Hmm damn.

I've narrowed it to either the Nexus 4 or the SG3 if I don't decide to just replace my One S Lol. I really am in love with this phone.
[HTC One S] mstickland:
It completely depends on your preference. Hardware is constantly evolving and so are options. You say you love your one s but you need to ask yourself what you love about it. If you love the comfortable sense feeling, you could look into the new htc one, though sense 5 is a vast difference from previous versions. If you want the best hardware on the market go with the s4. If you like the smaller size check out the nexus 4. Personally, I would recommend the S4. Guaranteed huge rom support and as top of the line as you could get this year. Do some research and see what fits you. Im a Note 2 user of about 3 months and love it more every day.
[HTC One S] RussianBoots:
Awesome thanks for the reply. As ya can tell I decided the nexus caught my interest
[HTC One S] hunabku:
If you can wait a little longer Google will announce the new Motorola X series, perhaps this can be of promise as well. :)
[HTC One S] ChrisDang:
If you want build quality (emphasis - it is stunning), like HTC's sense rom, want the beats audio/boomsound, and maybe other things I definitely would recommend the HTC One. Even with my perfect-condition One S was contemplating the switch to the One but decided to save money. Since you want a new phone, there's nothing stopping you! The phone is also slightly larger at 4.7" (whereas the One S is 4.3").

Let us know what you choose.

Edit: Awkward didn't realize you had actually bought the Nexus 4 already. Great quality build budget phone that is on the smaller side too. (Just a little outdated as the Nexus 5 is being anticipated but it will still get quick android updates).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alterx.it:
Hello

I've just flashed the Slim Bean ROM 4.2.2 build 3 and everything seems to going smooth and stable but i have problems with Tasker "Wifi OFF" task.

I receive the following error:

error: code 3: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: broadcast from android asks to run as user -1 but is calling from user 0; this requires android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL or android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS.

I've tried to search a fix or a solution but i was unable to find one.

I've seen that something similar was found for device i9300 in the ROM developer forum here on XDA but it didn't solve the problem. I've found that was an issue also on Cyanogenmod 10.1 nighlty but it was fixed several weeks ago.

Any suggestions?

I hav eto say that i like this rom a lot but if i don't find a solution for this issue i'm forced to change rom.

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Regards

Andrea

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alterx.it:
Unfortunately i haven't found any solution yet using Slim Bean Rom. Using last builds doesn't help.

I have to say that it's something related only to Slim Bean Rom 'cause i have non problem when i flash CM 10.1 or others CM 10.1 related Rom.

Any help to solve this issue is highly appreciated. :o

Is this any true? I guess there was a reason why HTC devs put this, but I don't see any radical differences between the original charger and unoriginal ones...
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Apparently it does charge it slower but if you use it, it will charge the battery like normal without doing any harm to the phone. Though it's best to use the oem charger.
[HTC Droid DNA] ghstrdr1985:
I've got an HP 2.1 Ah adapter that I use with the DNA & does just fine. I think it might refer to the amount of amps being put out. I don't use any chargers less than 1 Ah.
[HTC Droid DNA] l7777:
Yes it is true, it was implemented with the software update. They used to simply check the data pins. Data pins shorted = fast charge (Current > .5 Amp), not shorted = slow charge (.5 Amp). This was done because the USB spec says devices can't have more than .5 Amps of current from a computer's USB ports. After the update they are checking something else though. I have several chargers that still charge fast but one dual charger rated at 2.1 amp that will now only charge slow. The charge rate won't be a problem if you're charging overnight but if you're trying to charge and use the phone at the same time you could potentially still be draining the battery but at a slower rate. The best example of this I can think of is someone like me who uses the phone in the car to stream music and navigate with GPS and screen turned on. Some of the custom kernels will override the charge current limit. This is no problem if the charger can handle it but is a potential hazard to your computer's USB ports.

i could start up a pocket pc movie thing on here but it would be kinda illegal and the mods wouldnt allow it :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Peter Poelman:
Hey, listen... 'The mods' have traded plenty of warez, MP3s and movies when they were young and wild. Thing is that this is a website. Great for some things, not for others. Websites aren't Usenet, Kazaa or BitTorrent: they come with convenient contact details of people to sue.

Now in the theoretical event somebody were to set up an anonymously freehosted page that contained loads and loads of PocketPC movie Bittorrent files and kept posting the location of this page on this board, there would be absolutely nothing we could do about it. We would be completely and utterly unable to help the authorities. Imagine the horror...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] digger:
You could also try downloading the Windows Media Encoder (do a search on the Microsoft site). This allows you to encode most media types (MPEG, AVI etc) into WMV format. There are already templates setup for the Pocket PC so it is very straight forward and the results on the Pocket PC using WMP9 are excellent. Small file sizes as well. I use this all the time to encode stuff recorded using my TV card.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] gazzaman2k:
yeah but wmf are very crap quality and not as clear as divx encoded movies + dont run as smooth on as high bitrate as 250+

i think ill leave the movies thing too risky :cry:

These kind of threads are discouraged. There are at least a couple dozen different combinations achievable and there is no reason for a thread for each. Just enjoy what you have.

Battery stats is always a relative statistic. You're just using less power from other areas.

Learn to search.

Not sure why you feel the need to have a **** response when I am trying to share my findings with this rom/kernel combo. I have tried many different roms and kernels and haven't had battery life nearly this good and thought someone else might be interested too.

When I last visited XDA yesterday or the day before I was ranting about Android's battery life. This thread bragging about 3 hours screen on time is the perfect example! OP not trying to change the subject or take away from your battery pride, but.. This is a joke. The phone stayed on for three hours and this guy is so happy about it he started a new thread. Android has a BIG problem, or maybe the more accurate statement is the companies who manufacture Android devices do. Am I the only one who feels this way!? (growing more and more bitter about it each day that it goes ignored)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gbarayah:
I for one appreciate you reporting your battery life - probably didn't need its own thread (sharing the AOKP development thread would have been fine) but its good to give other users an idea of the kind of performance you're getting from your ROM/Kernel combo.

In regards to Android and battery life... Granted, its not like my Blackberry devices of 5 years ago, BUT, the devices are capable of much more. I charge my phone every night and sometimes even need a bump charge to make it through the day. Between my car charger and my office, I'm never in a pinch for some extra juice.

The way I look at it, if you want a car that puts out 500 horsepower, can't expect it to give you 40 MPG too.

Just my two cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Sticking with the analogy.. The problem is most of the cars being manufactured, and all of the cars worth having, are 500 horsepower now. But very few offer a larger gas tank, which would not be hard to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albsat:
We need batteries like that of galaxy note 2, which is 3100 mah in a slim form.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hbkmog:
Cool story OP.

This mind of threads appear almost once a week. We all know battery life is not that good for GNex. To gain 30min more battery life by trying so hard simply is not worth it.

Get an extended battery, 6 hours screen on time, problem solved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jazzyjames:
OP since you live only 15 minutes or so away from me, and I am on Verizon, have you done any overclocking/underclocking? Undervolting? What apps are you using? Getting great screen on time can only get you so far depending on the apps you use.

Hello!

First, I apologize for my poor english. It's not my mother tongue. ;)

I'm using JB 1.4.2 on Razr i.

There's one thing that's annoying me a lot. I've installed the SNES Emulator SuperGNES and I've found that every single file type that have no app associated is showing SuperGNES icon and associated with it. Example: .log, .db, etc. Even files that have no extension is associated with it. The same problem occur when ZArchiver is installed. I don't know if it's a bug of these two apps or Android's in general. Remembering that this associations are shown only inside Android's native file manager. It's like every "unknown MIME type file" act like being the same.

I only want to understand why it's happening, even if there's no solution...

Thanks in advance! ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sak-venom1997:
When we try to open files it's the file explorer fires an activity with the data of file properties any app that has declared to receive intents of that specific type are launched.

In case the app fails to filter what file types it reads that app would be called every time you open a file unless there's a default app to do so.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airborn22:
Hi,

I have a Galaxy S 2 with Android 4.0.3

The last few months it started to make some interesting things. First the screen starts to "vibrate" and then the phone restarts and it shows that the battery is almost empty. Last time it's turned off and I plugged in the charger and started the phone but all of the applications were missing which are installed on the internal sd card. There was no external sd card. I'm attached 3 images where you can see that it says that the applications are instelled on the sd card but the icon is grey and you can't start them. If I open the settings and go to application and then the sd card tab it says there are no applications installed.

What could be the problem?

Thanks,

Is your phone rooted? If yes, take a look at this post

I think that internal and external sd are switched on your phone. The files are on your phone, but they are grayed out because your phone identifies the internal sd card as the external one, and you don't have any external.

I found a useful app called Fresco that updates my wallpaper (daily) with cool HD images from NASA, but I am growing tired of the space theme. Whats useful about Fresco is that it doesnt just pull images from your internal memory, but queries their database so you dont store anything on your phone. As far as I can tell there is no other app that does this. Can anyone recommend another app that automatically updates your wallpaper each day in the correct size/resolution for the N4? Ideally if I could pick some categories that would be great as I dont want to wake up to see Justin Bieber (shudder) or any crap like that on my phone!
