1. Bigger at least 2600mah battery

2. Polycarbonate body.

3. Two step dedicated camera button.

4. JB4.2 update.
[One (M7) General] arnolldde:
Yes,I agreed that the bigger battery would have been nice considering the size of the device specially.
[One (M7) General] schrickm5:
Titanium body

Sapphire crystal glass

8 Ultra Pixel Camera

....I am not asking for much. How hard could it be?
[One (M7) General] Element515:
Price of the nexus 4. Chances the next nexus will be a HTC phone?

No capacitive buttons at all. I like the on screen buttons... And that awkward moment of embarrassment when you start using your device upside down.
[One (M7) General] schrickm5:
almost forgot....

Released on time!!
[One (M7) General] MojoPin:
I was initially put off by the lack of expandable storage, but I've ordered the phone on an unlimited plan now so plan to stream music and make maximum use of Drive, Dropbox et al, so not much of a concern anymore. and I have to admit the waterproof feature on the Xperia Z was incredibly tempting as well, but just didn't fall in love with that handset once I got the chance to try it out.
[One (M7) General] Flight__81:
I think 64GB should be standard across the board.

I have played around with the One and the 2 capacitive buttons aren't a problem. The 3 dot black bar is a result of developers being lazy and not having a menu button in their app as per the development guidelines. If it annoys you find another app where the developer isn't lazy. My fiance has a GN2 and I don't think at any point has she ever used the capacitive menu button. At present it is hands down the best android smart phone available.
[One (M7) General] JayMore:
Stuff

- ability to disable blinkfeed (fixable by software update)

- remap long pressing back button to menu button (fixable by software update)

- dedicated camera button (One+ maybe?)

- 3000+ mAh battery (One+ maybe? NOPE.)
[One (M7) General] forelli:
First of all: S_OFF!

2nd: Ext. SD Card support

3rd: Removable battery

4th: Camera < 12 MP

f.
[One (M7) General] takitoes:
- Micro SD would be a huge bonus

- Dedicated camera button would be nice

- Customisation options on the capasitive button

I don't mind having only 2 buttons, but being able to long press, double tap each for different functions would open up A LOT more flexibility.

Other then that i can't really complain :D
[One (M7) General] 人云奕云:
There's a long way to go.

Camera just moderate.

Battery life still not so satisfying.

As for screen, I don't think we should ask for more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DrDoctor:
After continuous use, my phone gets hot at the back near the antennas, camera, and battery.

I downloaded temperature apps, but they report normal temps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rbk7:
Cpu is probably stuck at a high frequency. Download Cpu spy to see wats up. Also check ur governor setting if ur on a custom rom. I bet if u search Google u can find lots of info.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Joker:
I was unlocking my AT&T SX56 and the rom upgrade just stoped and I could not do anything to mak eit start up again. Now The pocket PC has upgrading rom always on the screen and I can gt active sync to even see the pc to try and flash it or upgrade the rom again. If you have any info you think that might help would be great. Thank you for your help.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Biso007:
If you still can get to the bootloader screen (power + soft reset), you can cook a new ROM as nbf file and use the SD flashing method.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Joker:
Cool man I can get to that screen and will give that a go
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Joker:
Ok got a SD card and put on a new rom how can I make it load the info from th card. Also everytime I try and make a nbf file type it erros on me.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irpwnz:
OK so my Tab started to act up lately. Before starting i'm running on CM9. Ok so my Tab does not want to hold a charge at all, on top of that when I finally get enough power to turn it on, it will say its 0% charged one second, but before you know it its up to 10%, and when you unplug it it will die almost immediately. I've tried resetting battery stats in CWM, and have even flashed a stock rooted rom. I am about to try to flash full stock from ODIN. You can probably tell i'm praying it's not hardware. If it is, I can triangleaway and ODIN back to stock and send it in right?

Has anyone else had this problem? I've tried new chargers too by the way.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnesk9:
It sounds like your battery is dead, if it is they aren't that hard to replace.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irpwnz:
Well, I just restored it from ODIN and It may be fine. It's not rooted and Samsung is sending me a return sticker for them to replace it so that can be my backup plan if this doesn't work. Binary counter should be back to 0 too. Do they usually check binary counter in download mode for these kind of things?

EDIT: It may be a combination of things anyway, not just the battery. Sammy will fix it up and it's under warranty anyway. I would rather send it in for free then possible **** something up trying to replace it myself because then it would definitely not be under warranty.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skazzy3:
Its probably the first thing they check. You should triangle away and then unroot. I think you can unroot from supersu.

BTW why are you using cm9 when you can use 10.1.
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
Yes, I did google and search on XDA, but couldn't find an answer.

I'm looking at com.htc.autobot.cargps.provider I've seen it pop up on my battery monitoring apps, and I'm still not sure what it's for. It shows up on days I don't even use the car app or anything like that.
[HTC Droid DNA] dragonstalker:
Autobot is a car gps tracker. Sounds like you have an app loaded that instantly tracks your movements. Like your gps share is enabled on your phone or something like that. Open navigation, and check to see if your location sharing is enabled. If it is turn it off. Also see if you have your phone connected to your car security or home security systems. These types of apps also have gps automated functions.
[Xperia Z General] AndroidInsanity:
I have read a few reviews on the Xperia Z on here. But I would like to give me input :).

User Interface:

It is very much like a lighter version of Xperia Gingerbread devices. And looks much nicer in my opinion. Sony has done pretty good in keeping it close to stock while giving there own skin too. The lock screen is fancy although I do miss the lockscreen shortcuts like on Samsung and LG devices.

Speed:

Pretty laggy to start with. Which I am sure you will all agree is not very acceptable for a phone of this much power. But after installing a custom ROM is flies like it should do. I can't tell any major speed differences between this and any other high end smarphones. But it gets me by. And this is making me wonder why I even bother with benchmarks when it is getting more further apart from actual user experience.

Screen:

The screen is gorgeous. I don't look at my phone from the side. Which sounds pretty stupid to me. It is much better than the nexus 4 who's colours look washed out. When it comes to PPI you cant really see a difference to be honest. I am using the display calibrator and my settings are the following: Saturation 3.3 and hue 210. This is the best option for a more balance of colours In my opinion..

Design:

I have no issues with design. I remember watching the following video before I got the phone and thought it was amazing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3yMw2L3tJA

However. This video is pretty misleading. I dropped my phone on solid concrete about 5 feet high. IT now has a few dents at the bottom. But screen is fine and back has only minor scratches. Of course I bought a case straight away! Apart from that the actual design is sexy! much better than the S3 or even HTC one in my opinion. The flaps are annoying. BUT THEY SERVE A PURPOSE.

Camera: Camera I also have no problems with as I am not a professional photographer. The only complaint is the lostt of fine detail. But in some cases this just helps the photos look more stunning and "smooth". Depedning on your opinion. Burst mode is just too noisy for me. So it'll do for me.

There you have it guys. short and sweet. IF you would like to know my opinion on other features etc. Please do not hesitate to say.

I may be selling this to get the Galaxy note 10.1. As I am a sucker for big displays and to be brutally honest Samsung. I never text or call. just facebook, Internet, whatsapp and youtube.

Very detailed
[HTC Droid DNA] tamlin42:
I'm considering upgrading to a DNA in the near future. our family plan has two lines, both up for upgrade. The user of one line isn't in a hurry to upgrade. The other line still has unlimited data. My question, if I upgrade the non-unlimited line, will I be able to activate the DNA on the unlimited line instead or will the SIM card already be programmed with the information from the limited line?
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Upgrade on the non unlimited line then just swap the sims.
[HTC Droid DNA] tamlin42:
Neither line has a phone that uses a SIM currently. And if I upgrade the unlimited line, I'll lose unlimited.

I was more interested in whether the sim is locked to a phone number before I ever activate the device it goes in.

Thank you for the reply though!
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
The sim is locked to a phone number. But you can simply go ask for a SIM for your unlimited line and then pop it in the DNA. Then you can just ask them to reactivate the old phone on the non unlimited plan.

You are over complicating this.
[HTC Droid DNA] tamlin42:
I'm sorry if my question is convoluted. I've always been on Verizon and never used more than one phone at a time. I have no experience with SIM cards or intimate knowledge of their workings.

My main concern is keeping that unlimited data plan. Is there a cost for getting a SIM card at the Verizon store? Are they likely to use that as an excuse to put me on a tiered plan rather than unlimited?
[HTC Droid DNA] t1gartist:
only if someone esle is on the plan and they or you wanna upgrade. but if your on your own then i dont see why you cant either pay full price and keep unlimited data or maybe buy a sims card but i dunno. do you have a sim card on a device now if so buy dna and transfer sim card over to dna
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Just go into Verizon, upgrade to the DNA on your non unlimited line. Then say you would like to use this phone on your other line(the unlimited one), they will give you a SIM and activate it. Then just have them reactivate the phone that was previously on the non unlimited line. Again, your making a bigger deal about this then it actually is. Just go into Verizon and tell them what you are doing and they will be happy to help you. They will probably try to talk you into a tiered data plan because that's their job, but unless you tell them that you want to do that they will leave your unlimited data alone.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
I tried to do this exact same thing when I got my DNA, and VZW absolutely would not do this for me, at 3 different locations. Ended up ordering online in order to get it accomplished. Hope you have better luck than I did.

Sent from my Nexus 10
[HTC Droid DNA] Novakingwai:
I got my 1st smart phone from Verizon through online and calling the 1800 number. All the associates were friendly and helpful. Several of them reminded me a couple times that if I change my plan I will lose my unlimited data. None of them ever tried to trick me into getting rid of it. I feel confident that they will try to help you and not screw you over.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] this.user:
I just finished rooting my system following this guide.

The only problem I am having now is that, I can call people and send messages, but I do not get any incoming calls or message.

When someone tried to call me, it goes to voice mail. and when someone tries to message me, it never arrives.

Can someone please help me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] this.user:
Guys I was able to discover why did was happening and want to share it with you, incase anyone else experiences this.

The issue was that since I was changing my service from Verizon to Tmobile, and taking my number along with me, the system needed to pass the number from Verzions System to Tmobile system. However, this is not a one phase process, but a multi phase one, and during different phases, your phone will gain different functionality. So, in my example, the first functionality to come through was making out going calls, the second which came a few hours later, was getting incoming calls.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] leos0000:
How i can put all lang in all roms
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gambler_3:
I love the fact that samsung continues to use hardware home button but dont like that they still use inflexible capacitive buttons. So whats the solution?

Well my solution is slightly pricier but I doubt it would raise costs too much. Instead of having capacitive buttons at each side of the home button, how about we have 2 tiny OLED screens? This way you could change the position of the buttons from left to right, you will be able to have a dynamic menu key so no need to have it all the time. You could have a dedicated search button if you want or a dedicated task switcher or nothing at all. We know an OLED screen consumes very insignificant power when displaying all black. Basically you will have a hardware home button AND the flexibility of on-screen buttons in one phone.

I would go with a back key on the left and would leave the right screen to dynamically display the menu button whenever needed. Basically everyone could have their own configuration how they see fit. Sounds like a great idea to me seriously but lets see others opinion. :)

PS: I posted the same topic in the nexus 4 forum but seems like not many people were interested in the discussion. :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] realpg:
the hardware buttons always crash in 2 years.

my galaxy s ,s2......
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gambler_3:
The power button of a phone with no home button is also likely to crash earlier than for a phone with a home button. ;)

I think 2 years is not a bad period to be honest...iPhone home button has a similar life so it just seems a technical limitation right now.
[Galaxy S 4 General] snapple232:
It's a neat idea, but I don't think there are enough people who feel the need to customize the buttons for Samsung to bother.
[Galaxy S 4 General] system.img:
Pretty useless to customize the buttons in my opinion.

I feel that once you get used to the configuration, it is one of the best combinations in phones.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gambler_3:
I think we can all agree that there should be a dynamic menu button instead of a fixed one cant we? It still happens to me that an app has actions with the menu button and I never knew before because I never pressed the menu button. With a dynamic menu button that problem is gone.

I completely understand why samsung wont give a dedicated task switcher as accidentally pressing it can be quite annoying but really the fixed menu key needs to go.

What about the back button? If its displayed on-screen then it is capable of changing shape to tell you that your next press will exit the app. This is so helpful and only possible on-screen.

And secondly having a flexible button system can be really useful with an evolving OS like android. Who knows google might introduce another navigation button in the mix as all their phones use on-screen configurations.
[Galaxy S 4 General] aydc:
I think it is a crime to put a hard home button on a top phone made in 2013. It's not 1995 anymore. Samsung insists on hard buttons just to make it easier for people coming from iPhone, which is an emberassment for the Android community.
[Galaxy S 4 General] SlimJ87D:
Nope the love hard button.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gambler_3:
My biggest issue with having just a single screen is that there is just no gap between the actual screen and navigation buttons. If you increase the gap then ofcourse it becomes a massive waste of screen. I believe google should switch to using a separate screen in the next nexus for navigation allowing for a bit of gap between the actual screen and buttons. Efficient use of space be damned there is a balance you gotta keep between that and practical usage.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Saturny:
I love the hard button. When I had the Moto Defy, sometimes my finger would slip and touch the home button (I have big hands). It angered the heck out of me.

Download a ROM that doesn't have the S4 svoice. There's tons out there. Problem solved.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Luxen:
Update: The same process works on Kindle fire HDX (Now that I have root, I can confirm it works)

However I am using 512px for the carousel icons (original is 562) and 198px for the smaller icons.

App ID can be found in: /data/app

For example: com.google.android.apps.docs-1.apk (The bold part is your ID)

---------

I looked for awhile and could not find the answer so I started exploring all the files and found a solution.

If this has been posted before, feel free to delete this thread.

This is mostly for low-quality side-loaded apps. (I am using a 7", I don't know if it matters

or not)

You need the following:

-Root (to access system files)

- 2 images: 425px (Carousel icon) 155px (App list icon)

- Your app's ID

- A file viewer (I am using es explorer)

Rebooting is necessary for all changes to take place!

Navigate to: system/vendor/data/images

(this is where you'll drop your images)

Example 1

: Gmail: ID: com.google.android.gm

So it would be:

com.google.android.gm.png (for 425px icon)

tall_com.google.android.gm.png (for 155px icon)

Example 2

: SuperSU: ID: eu.chainfire.supersu

So it would be:

eu.chainfire.supersu.png (for 425px icon)

tall_eu.chainfire.supersu.png (for 155px icon)

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] hector333:
Tanks man! now my carousel (i´m i the only one who likes it? LOL) in Kinology looks amazing; like many who dont have access to the amazon app store, most of my apps come from google play and look horrible on the carousel, not anymore.

The easy way to find out the id of an app, its to open it on the play store on a desktop browser and look in the URL, the id its clearly pointed by a "id="

Here are some of the icons i have now on my KFHD7 ready to be moved to the system/vendor/data/images folder.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
Ok, so i've spent endless hours and by endless i mean 8 hrs searching for a cure on my issue. I've hit road blocks in every corner because everyone resorts to either odin or kies, which i cannot use either.

I have a refurbished att i747 that for some reason came with cwm when i bought it from att. I've had it for a couple months now and I just plugged it into my computer to charge it (because my computer or any other has never read my phone) and as soon as I plugged it in, it shut itself off.

I went to turn the phone back on and it stalls at the "Galaxy SIII" logo.

I can put it into recovery mode and download mode.

I did a full reset from cwm and also tried putting stock rom on my external storage to flash, but my phone is not reading my external either and I cannot access my internal from my computer to place the rom there.

Im hoping I'm just frustrated and am doing something wrong in this department because i'm thinking it's my only resort.

download mode is useless because my phone does not register on any computer so unfortunately, my best friend odin is out of my reach.

What can I do. I've exhausted almost every option i can think of.

:eek::mad::rolleyes:

help me!!!

I apologize if this is posted in the wrong forum.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
phones dont ship from at&t with anything other than their carrier's stock firmware and stock recovery. if it did, that should have returned immediately.

what stock ROM did you place on your sd card? is that sd card working on any other devices?

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

are you sure it isnt just the stock recovery you're booting into? that would be the reason why you cant access the sd card to flash anything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
Ya the sd card was from my old phone never had an issue with it before.

I've done custom work to android before and when I purchased this phone (not new) refurbished from att themselves, I assumed it would be ok to go.

I shouldve returned it when my computer wasnt reading my phone and thats my bad.

I never knew it had cwm on it till it softbricked because i've never had an issue, just the normal power off. never had to do recovery so when I went to recovery and was expecting stock recovery, I was surprised to see cwm on there.

"StockRootedGS3V6.zip" I know it's rooted, but i figured i'd try anyway

"I747UCALEM_174ATTALEM_ATT.zip"

those are the only roms I could find for cwm or was I wrong?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
