[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] PersianSphinx:
Hi all,

Don't know if I must post this here or in themes and apps section;

basically, I want to customize my illumination bar, much like what the illumination bar app does (for the xperia S and U only :'( )

Now, how can I do this? Help would be appreciated.

I have a Miro.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] PersianSphinx:
Okay, so I solved my own problem.

What I did was that I used the illumination bar app and told it my device is xperia u.

[Asus Transformer TF700] KinetiClutch:
Hi All,

Did a quick search and couldn't find anything about this.

Basically I've successfully downgraded to ICS and rooted then OTA'd back to current firmware. (I am locked)

I want to factory reset the tab to maintain stablity / remove the junk. However I want to maintain root. I've googled and apparantly FR doesn't loose root.

But I wanted to confirm. Do I need to temp unroot on OTA or just leave it rooted? And can anyone confirm this maintains root?

Regards
[Asus Transformer TF700] neo1738:
I didn't touch a thing and did a factory reset, root was maintained. Just remember to have the OTA backup in place, you can leave it rooted.

Guys,

Any boxes in the market with HDMI input as well as output and running android ICS? I know of one i.e Geniatech ATV1600, but they are right now not accepting orders. Any variant (rebranded) of ATV1600 will do as well?

We want Set Top box input to go into the box and then box output to go to tv!

Please help, we would appreciate any kind of pointers!

i've tried a number of roms in the past few days.. one didnt have camera support, another didnt have google voice search.. spent hours on customizing, resetting, flashing, re-flashing, re-re-flashing...

does anyone have a first-hand experience with a rom that supports ALL device hardware (intl Note II - GT-N7100).

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuxonhtc:
Could you be more specific? Everything works fine on my device.. Camera support - you mean the touchwiz camera? You can't get that on aosp roms. Otherwise they should come with stock camera. Have you flashed the gapps package to get the google voice and other google apps?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talamir:
switched roms...

i loved the previous one (slimroms.net) but after spending hours on it, i couldn't get the camera to work.

the current one i use (AOKP) works great, other then voice search in Google now.

i've installed the additional package that its supposedly requires but still no go. i can live without voice search (unlike camera) until KLP comes out.. now i just have to figure out why the ability to install APK's went away... it used to work on this rom but something happened. the "install" option is there but its unresponsive.

wrong attitude...

so, just because i dont spend my days and nights installing new roms, it means i dont know what i'm doing..?

i dont claim to be an expert, but it seems that battling with hardware issues is something that even long time power users are sometimes having problems with... at least i spent some time researching and experimenting with my device before coming here asking for help.

So why don`t you use stock rom with root? Or try Android Revolution HD, it is close to stock and fast as a bullet with great batterylife and all features are functional.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushako:
Depends dude. You got 2 ways to go at it, it's either cyanogen Rom s or stock based Rom. As far as I know the latest cm10.1 all have issues with the camera. So stick with stock based rooms, I would suggest using Alliance Rom 2.0 as I've been using there roms and haven't had any issues. The way I see it there are no bugs, only room for improvements.

[HTC Desire S] RogerL:
My Desire S won’t make or receive phone calls or texts. My first thought was the radio, so I upgraded to ICS using the standard downloaded RUU, which includes a radio update. The problem is still there so its not radio related.

All other parts of the phone work 100%. It shows good GSM signal strength, shows the correct network provider details, has good mobile internet, wifi’s fine, the SIM is fine on other phones, shows that it is on GSM not WCDMA.

If I try to make a call there is a brief pause and then a beep and either:

It reverts to the dialer screen

or

The phone semi-crashes

or

The phone fully crashes and needs a reboot

If I try to send a text it reports that it can't be sent after a number of re-tries.

If I try to call the phone from another phone, it just says number not available.

I suspect a hardware fault, but I’m not sure. Is there a potential software fix for this?

Any help would be much appreciated!
[HTC Droid DNA] Joelkat:
I can't decide if I want a DNA or iPhone 5. I have my upgrade may 1. I have owned 2 android phones that both have given me issues ( xperia play and LG Lucid. ) I have experienced multiple issues on both android devices therefore it makes me nervous about getting another android device. IPhones on the other hand, my friends have had very few issues, unless dropped but of course I would keep a case on my iPhone. Could you guys help me decide?
[HTC Droid DNA] Grimmity:
HTC Droid DNA has been a VERY solid phone for me. I'd choose DNA over iPhone 5 any day.
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
do you like customization? do you like a full 1080p high Def screen? do you like a quad core processor with 2 gigs of ram?

the phones you had, well, sucked. they were very low end android phones. the Lucid is terrible lol we used to sell that.. made me a huge profit but I hated selling it. the xperia was meh. the dna is a premium high end device.

people with iPhones "don't have issues" because you can't do everything on them you can on an Android. for example, people don't complain about errors or force closing on iPhones because when an app force closes, they don't tell you it's performed an error. it just backs out to the home screen, ans doesn't tell you why. most people think "oh just a small glitch, I'll uninstall and reinstall the app..." and then it's fixed.

believe me, when I worked at Verizon, I saw more idiots with iPhones with problems than I thought could possibly exist. I couldn't believe that many people didn't even know how to use an iPhone. good god.

Sent from my HTC DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
No one can really decide for you, but my friend got the iPhone 5 coming from a droid razr and then I got my dna and let him use it and he wished that he stayed with android. What are you looking to do on your phone. The droid dna can do just about everything. Where as the iPhone 5 doesn't have some features the dna has. The specs aren't really even comparable in my opinion, the dna beats all of the iPhone.
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
I carry both of them if there's anything you're wondering about just send me a PM.

My general rule of thumb is if you plan to jailbreak your iPhone don't bother with an iPhone and get an Android. And if that's the case the DNA is the first phone I've used to take iPhones out of some long time iDevice family members hands.

If you say to yourself you are 100 percent satisfied with an iPhone out of the box and just want something that doesnt need to be customized or anything, then it's something you might want to consider.
[HTC Droid DNA] zone23:
Its a tough call I really I like them both. That said if it was me I would wait it out and look at the HTC One and the iPhone 5S and see which one I like better. If the iPhone 5S comes with a 4+ inch screen and iOS 7 gets a overhaul it maybe a tough call. Despite what the android guys says (most have actually never owned the iPhone 5 (I have)) its a really solid device. Issue is its boring you can't do a lot with it. I like to tinker but to be honest even that gets boring after a while. So if you want something that without a doubt is going to work almost 100% of the time AND you like getting updates for your device on a regular bases then the iPhone is a clear winner. Its fast and it works.

One more thing what HTC has done to Sense 5 I might as well go back to the iPhone. The new Sense brings nothing to the table for me.
[HTC Droid DNA] craigbailey1986:
The great thing about android is if you want a different look then you change it to what you want. There are very few reported issues as far as software go with android is concerned since the era of jellybean. Android biggest issue is the different hardware that is has to be optimized for. Dna stock is really refined but I for one like to change things up at min once a week. We can't tell you what to chose but if choice is an issue then android is your best bet because you can make it perform like any phone you want.
[HTC Droid DNA] eakeller:
The iPhone is a solid choice simply because it's so tightly controlled there is very little that can go wrong with it. The LTE is fast, processor and memory are very capable for the OS, battery is good, and everyone who releases an app makes it for the iPhone....usually first.

That being said, and I've been on both sides of the fence, I personally prefer Android devices. Two things keep me away from iOS. First is the screen size. Showing my age here, but I'm pushing 40 and a 3.5-4" screen really doesn't do it for me anymore. Especially after using things which are so easy on the eyes in the 4.3-5" range; it's difficult to get used to an iPhone size again. At the present I'm using a DNA for a few major reasons, namely the display is gorgeous, build quality is fantastic, and the open/customizable nature of Android gives me freedom that an iPhone never will. One thing that kind of surprised me after going to the DNA was that I find myself actually surfing the web on this phone. With the iPhone's cramped screen, surfing the web is do-able, but almost pointless - you'd be much better off on a desktop. However web page rendering on the DNA with the much larger screen, is actually very capable of basic surfing/checking news, etc. I go to my desktop less, especially when I'm working in my lab and need a quick lookup on something; I go to the DNA. iOS itself is very restrictive compared to Android.

My suggestion - if you mainly use a phone for phone calls, text, and apps, then go for an iPhone. If you spend time surfing the web, doing some customizing or tinkering with the innards, as well as calling and texting, go with the DNA. To be honest you can't really go wrong either way; they're just different.

Good luck with your decision, and hopefully we'll see you around these forums after your final decision. :cool:
[HTC Droid DNA] lacrosse1991:
I had a difficult time making that decision as well when I had upgraded a month ago (from a thunderbolt), although the whole integration thing was appealing with the iphone (have an ipad already, plus other family members have iphones), I had decided to go with the dna instead because of the ability to tinker with it and such, enjoy doing that sort of stuff
[HTC Droid DNA] Grimmity:
The thing is though.... you can do that all on the DNA. I would say the DNA on stock is a very stable capable phone and Sense imho looks brilliant over iOS.

I agree though, most apps do come out on the iPhone first due to the platform being more stable and easier to dev for in the beginning.... We'll probably see that change over the course of time with JB and onward though.
[HTC Droid DNA] zone23:
I agree with everything said here. It was really a tough for me to decide especially since I use Mac computers, iPad, Apple TV, Time Capsule, etc.. but on android you can flash stuff and try different things if you want too. Its nice having that ability. When I had the iPhone I found myself a little board. I didn't have anything to develop, and everything I had learned to do on android seem to be going to waste.
[HTC Droid DNA] Grimmity:
But then your thumb can't reach all corners of the phone's screen!!

It amazes me when people mention that in reviews of devices, especially when it's a 5 ft guy reviewing it [usually small hands to begin with]. It's neither a pro nor con that's worth mentioning imo

Sarcasm aside, it would be interesting to see Apple come out with a 4+ in screen especially after watching some of their advertisements and events.
