[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Gh0sT.RPG:
1. Bootloader s not unlocked in ics. U need to upgrade to jb to unlock.

2. For rooting p765 on ics downgrade to ics v10c use binary method then update to 10g without doing anything with system.

3. Yes u can flash any kdz on ur device unless u know hw to retain ur region's baseband.

EDIT: or u can use lelus method for rooting. All rooting threads are in development section.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ajay74:
Thanks for your reply i want to know one or two things

1) will rooting will solve my apps to sd problem ( as there is no option in ics)

2) bootloader can't be unlocked like

We use to do in xperia devices, using fastboot mode
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Gh0sT.RPG:
1. Apps to sd works or not m not sure but u can swap internal and ur ext sd card memories so that should solve problem about less internal memory.

2. For info about bootloader unlocking check this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2190326 :thumbup:

Are you sure you have a sprint S3? You're posting from the international version so I'm a little doubtful. If you're rooted it may also be a big with your rom, or maybe a common problem with your phone (if referring to int'l version)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kosarkas94:
I made a mistake.I have int version and it is not rooted l.maybe is a common problem who knows.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
Low light photos tend to be grainy and don't look good, unless you have a very good camera. There is not really a cell phone out that takes low light pictures really well. You don't see the spots or grainy ness when you use the flash because there is more light. Take some pictures in sunlight and they will look great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kosarkas94:
Yes i agree with you.When i take pics with more light they look very good and dont have spots.You think that is not a big deal?or maybe is a common problem for s3 and only i noticeed it,i cant belive:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
This is a problem with all phone cameras. They just don't have good enough sensors and what not to take good low light pics. If you want a great camera for low light images get a real DSLR camera.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kosarkas94:
Yeah but why spots appered?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
I love DSLRs and use them quite often, so I might be able to shed some light (pun intended) on this situation.

I won't go into too much detail about it, but the low light performance comes down to the CMOS image sensor size.

This article

and

this article

do a good job of explaining what the camera sensor does, but it boils down to the following: a smaller sensor will be able to absorb less light than a larger sensor. This is why phone cameras will never be as good as (high end) DSLRs. This is also why, for the most part, size does matter when it comes to cameras (not 100% foolproof of a rule, but it stands).

Now, when you're taking a picture in a low-light area, the sensor picks up what it can. This is where software takes over. There are algorithms that cameras (both in DSLR and phone cameras) that interpret the sensor readings and compile them into an image. When the sensor can't read enough light, it's output to the algorithm won't contain enough information to provide an accurate picture. This is where grainy pictures come from and sometimes, artifacts like the ones you've been pointing out.

I'm not sure why it's happening primarily with low-light Red pixels on your phone, but it won't be fixed by getting a new phone. It'll be fixed by getting a $2K DSLR. Even though our cameras are 8MP, they will inherently be worse than a high-end camera. These cameras are nice for snapping a pic of a friend or relative or your favorite dish at that new restaurant, but if you're trying to blow them up to a poster, good luck with that! Having realistic expectations of the phone camera will help you be more satisfied with it.

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

I should also state that my previous post mainly applies to low-light conditions. Given adequate lighting conditions, this phone camera is phenomenal. The problem with the small sensor is that it takes more light to get adequate lighting. Hope this makes sense.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kosarkas94:
Thank you very much for explanation in details :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
Great explanation. Holy schnickies! Very well put and accurate. Thanks for saving me some time. Haha.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
Thanks! I wrote it as I was leaving for lunch, so couldn't do my normal formatting on it (also felt it had a couple of rough segues).

About 18 months ago I had friends that would scoff at my DSLR because their little point-and-shoot had 20+MP and my Rebel T2i "only" had 18MP. That's around when I found that Gizmodo article. Ever since I laugh whenever I see someone say "XYZ phone has such an amazing camera because it's now at 12MP!!!" When the CMOS sensor fits on a pinhead, it doesn't matter if you push it to 50MP, it'll still look like a fuzzy mess in even medium-light conditions.

That being said, my

Powershot S100

is a beast in low-light conditions.

Ok, I'll get off my soapbox (for now).

Edit: One thing to note, the CMOS sensor in the GS3 is a back-lit sensor, which the Giz article mentions as one way manufacturers are getting more effective sensors that are smaller. So our camera should be (and is) better than a similar phone that incorporates a traditional CMOS sensor. Just something I forgot to mention.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] ZeroXtreme:
I have an Xda II Asian Version witn ROM version 1.03. I tried flashing the ROM to the Dangaard 1.60.21WWE version, but I edited the ms_.nbf file with er2003edit, took out all the contents and replaced them with the contents of the Asian version extended ROM, and I also replaced the splash screen with the O2 original spalsh screen. Then I used the xda2nbftool to change the device name from PH10 to PH10B, and replaced the provider from Qtek to O2. I wanted the new ROM and new radio stack, but all the contents of my old extended ROM.

The upgrade went smoothly without a hitch, but now I cant get any signal from my provider, even if I force a manual search for networks. I noticed that after a hard reset, there is signal before the extended ROM contents are automatically installed. When the programs in the extended ROM are installed, then I have no signal again.

I figure its something being set or installed by my old extended ROM that is not compatible with the new ROM and radio stack.

Now I'm flashing back to the original ROM.

ANyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] pochreyes:
Hi ZeroXtreme,

I used the T-Mobile 1.6 ROM (RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe ), edited some stuff using xda2nbftool and it worked fine. I suggest that you use that instead.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] choboii:
I currently have the Nexus 4 and am really considering switching to the HTC one. Everything from the build quality and the specs seem to be better than the NExus 4. I love the original OS of the Nexus 4 and how it will get the first updates. My only thing is with the HTC one is that will I be able to root the HTC one? And if so, will i be able to have the same controls as the Nexus 4? Such as a Navigation ring, or the pie control.

Will the HTC one be as customizable as N4?

What would you guys be getting if you had choice between the two and why?

Thanks
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] YoungAceAtlanta:
I think the Nexus 4 is more customizable since its pure stock android.. You don't have to deal with HTC stuff..

i had my Nexus 4 and i sold it for the S4.. it got boring to me and i never used it besides to stream music.. my Note 2 and iPhone was always my primary devices.. if someone gave me a choice i would pick the HTC One.. even with the updates being late

You really only had 3 roms to choose from (PA, AOKP, CM) because the rest was just kangs and didn't change a thing.. besides different tweaks
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] choboii:
Would I be able to root the HTC one? Because I've heard you can't unless you get the developer version of it.

PA on the nexus 4 is by far the best rom for the nexus add in faux kernel .. dream come true
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] droidiac13:
Read the other threads and you'll see that the HTC One from AT&T has already been rooted and unlocked its bootloader. There's no guarantee it will stay that way, but at the moment it is. Also, if you're looking for an AOSP type ROM, it will come, but there is no time table. The questions you're asking are all yet TBD. Also, if you were to buy the HTC One, you'll have no problem selling it to buy the N4.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] americasteam:
I had the Nexus 4 for a little bit. The only thing it has over the One is wireless charging and the latest Android version.

On the One, the camera is a ton better, screen is much better, build quality is much better, has LTE, and has front facing speakers for watching YouTube videos or music if you like. That's just to name a few.

Hey, I live in Canada and I am with wind. I am really tempted to purchase the HTC one developer edition through a friend of mine. I know that it does not support the HSPA+ 1700Mhz network used by wind and TMO. However, the decive itself does. Would I be able to flash the TMO radio on it once they release the device, and just buy the developer edition beforehand? Just want to make sure that this would work.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oryan_dunn:
Some of the later HTC devices, like my Amaze, only got S-Off by using a wire trick, which requires physical access to the inside of the phone (in the case of the Amaze, easily done by taking the back cover off). I wonder if S-Off will be possible on the One without physically disassembling it.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TVGuy:
Has this been done before on other HTC devices? I've preordered the 64 gb developer edition but am having second thoughts.

The reason I ask is that I bought the International version of the Galaxy note 1 with the expectation that one of our very talented developers could hack the radio to make the Tmobile band active... and it turned out to be way more complicated than anyone gave it credit for. Still not done for that note 1.

I'd like to feel a little more comfortable that this can be done with the One.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] balint0808:
it is interesting, should be an easy fix but here in canada the only provider that is worth paying for is WIND. For $40 you get unlimited, calls, texting and data. Everywhere else it is $60 for a gig or less. So, naturally I want to stick with my provider, the only bummer is that they use the HSPA+ networks, same as T-Mobile.

The unlocked phone also cost $250 more here for some weird reason.

I flashed the T-Mobile radio last week and don't get HSPA on 1700MHZ. I continue to get LTE and I still get HSPA on the refarmed towers. How do I know? I have an older T-Mobile branded phone that I can compare against. At home I get nothing better than EDGE on my Developer Edition One but I get HSPA on my other phone (T-Mobile branded). If I travel down the road a little ways I get LTE and HSPA on the One.

BTW, there are a TON of threads in this and the other One forums that are discussing the T-Mobile radio on the Developer Edition One and it seems the consensus is that you need to change your CID and, to do that, you need S-OFF. MobileTechVideos.com has supposedly gotten S-OFF with a JTAG rig and, a little more tecently, without using a wire.

I accidentally flashed a siyah kernel (v 4.0.1) intended for the Internation Galaxy SII (i9100) onto my T-Mobile Galaxy SII (SGH-T989). For some reason i overlooked "FOR i9100" and now that i've flashed it there is no sign of life.

It was rooted with the AOKP Milestone Build 6 ROM flashed and working perfectly until i flashed the kernel

No vibration when holding the Power Button, Power&Vol+&Vol-, connecting a USB Jig, a USB wall charger, nor a regular USB. It isn't recognized in ODIN nor Kies when I try these different combinations of buttons and connections.

I have it connected to the USB wall charger and letting it sit for a while, still just a black screen.

[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
For the second freaking time in a row, my volume rocker fell out of my Sensation. I bought a new white battery cover a few months back to replace the black one, but the volume rocker has fallen out of both and I'm not spending $20 for another. Anyone else had this happen and fix it? What can I do?
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I did this as a quick fix for my sensation's cover, until I had time to buy another. It worked for the day or two I needed to find a replacement.

There's a bit of plastic under the volume rocker that pushes it back up (it's a black strip and similar to the plastic under the power button). Use super-glue to make it stick. If you don't have a glue of some sort, you can heat up the tip of a metal screwdriver and you should be able to make it stick.

If there's no little black strip of plastic, you may just need to invent an alternative or buy a new cover and reinforce it with something.
[HTC Sensation] GazaIan:
Did this, but it fell out again rather quickly. Ended up using my old TPU case to just hold it in place. It falls out when I remove the case, and the case is an ugly yellow color because TPU cases yellow over time, but it's honestly the most effective thing I've done so far.

Also ended up buying a Nexus 4. The total cost that I've spent maintaining this phone is well over $170 (new battery, new back twice, repairs due to faulty/defective hardware plus the stupid high amounts that my local carrier charges to ship packages, since they're the only one in the area and they apparently run ****... Its just too much.

Hey guys been having issues with 4g. It works only intermittently in my DNA (even though it shows the indicator in the status bar), but if I put my sim in my Galaxy Nexus it works flawlessly.
