[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] ajfoster:
Does anyone know if a type II compact flash memory will work on the xdaII. Ive seen some Magicstor 2.2gig for under a £100. seems very good value if it is compatible.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jljones:
The XDA 2 backpack takes Type II CF. So unless you already have one, you'll have to add an additional £100+ to the cost of the CF card.

Unles you need all that memory on one card, 4 256mb SD cards would be cheaper.

Hello Guys !

I came back with an "old" mod for aosp ! All People want t9 dialer on aosp ics , but this isn't possible because there are some limit on aosp rom.

You can do it , simple with this metod:

1. Install Phone.apk resized by millo1978 (I think is not needed in last release of 30 April because is included by default...if not work , put it ;))

2. Put this Contacts.apk in system/app and set permissions rw-r-r.

Screenshot of T9 Mod

Black Background Setting.apk

Hello!

This mod will change ics background of some apps (Like settings , Root Explorer) in black background !

I made this because when my brightness is high the background is orrible to view ! (Stupid resolution :/) , with black background is more elegant to see :)

1. Download framework-res.apk

2. Put it in /system and change permissions in rw-r-r , now move it to system/framework.

3. Reboot :) If you have problem go in recovery>advanced>fix permissions>reboot

Optional - Put it in the zip of rom (system/framework) and flash the zip !

Screenshot of Settings.apk

Tabbed setting are from my rom :)

Please , note that T9 Dialer mod can break Phone and Contacts app , so do a backup before install !

In future i will post other mods if you want ! :)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James_Evan_Bond:
I couldn't think of a better place to ask this, and seeing as I can't find anything on the Internet, I will try here. As most of you probably know, some games require a user to be online at all times. Seeing as I don't have 3G, and only use Wi-Fi, this can present a bit of a problem when I want to play games offline (such as Dark Knight Rises or The Amazing Spider-Man). I've resorted to keeping an eye out for offline APK's, but the trouble is too much. I would GLADLY buy the game if there was a way I could play these games offline. My question, is if there is some kind of app that tricks your phone into thinking it's online? That way the game I wish to play could do it's 'update check', and simply bypass it, so I can play the game. I haven't heard of anything like this before, that's why I figured I'd ask here. Or possibly if there is a way to patch an APK file so you can play it offline, would be beneficial as well. Any answers would be much appreciated! :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iFlasher:
Just buy the game, and you will not need rare patches or tricks to bypass the license verification cracked games
[Oppo Find 5] knitler:
I'm looking into a new phone but I'm just not sure if I should get the Find 5 or One. The camera is not a deciding factor for me, battery would mean more. If I read right the Find 5 has a bigger battery, can I assume that means the Oppa also have better battery life?

My second sticking point is, are there any rumors for when 4.2.2 will be released for it?

Third is how is the support for T-Mobile HSPA+ and LTE?
[Oppo Find 5] brakke97:
I should go for the HTC One, BTW it will be better supported!
[Oppo Find 5] vfnk:
well i guess in the end its all about the price. the find 5 is way more reasonable, at least in europe

the battery might be bigger on the oppo but i think there are some issues with the battery management. thats just what i read in other threads and on the oppo forums - please correct me if im wrong...

i dont have my find 5 yet, but ordered one yesterday. i was unsure between those two as well, but eventually ordered the black find 5 since it will still take some time until the black htc One is on sale.

so if the oppo doesnt work for me i will sell it and get the me the htc one...
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
Where did you buy Oppo find 5 in Europe? The only one I found in Europe is on amazon.co.uk and it costs 400£ . Did you manage to find it any cheaper ?
[Oppo Find 5] vfnk:
on their homepage oppostyle com the 32gb version for 569$ - they ship for free!! (express it says ;) )
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
Did you have to pay customs etc? (it's shipped from Asia) Cause as far as I know that would add in excess of 20% (of value) to the phone price... And then it simply would not be worth the hassle with customs etc
[Oppo Find 5] vfnk:
yes your right maybe its not worth it when extra fees are added...but sometimes you have to pay them and sometimes it just gets through without any extra costs.

i ordered mine two days ago so i hope i don't have to pay custom duties... but even with the 20% added its still about 50€ cheaper than the htc

- not that much but i was just curious and needed a phone...

Sent from my Oppo Find 5
[Oppo Find 5] Pixel69:
Hi Knitler,

In my opinion, the main drawback of the find 5 is its fragility.

The back side of the phone, despite it is very stylish and uncommon (but certainly not as much as the Htc one <3 ), has a very soft plastic.

I owned it since a few weeks and one thing I can say is i'm always trying to be careful on where I place it and how it stands on a desk.

Dust easily scratches the rear side of my poor Oppo and loves lodging into them, especially on the white model :(

And what is most frustrating than handling the Oppo like it would be a jewel !? Damn, it's just a phone !!

(so if you hesitate, chose the black one ;) )

Otherwise, this smartphone is just a killer plaything :P

Regarding the battery side, I'm not shure a few milliamps would make the difference on a whole day. In both cases, you would have to charge it every day.

Another interesting point mentionned by brakke97, I believe the One will have a better support.

But, chose the HTC and you will have Mr Everyone's phone ;)
[Oppo Find 5] Entropy512:
It's not fragile at all, it's very well built. Soft plastic does NOT make a phone fragile, it makes it impact resistant!

I hate how people constantly ignorantly bash plastic as a build material. Properly engineered plastics (as found in Samsungs and the Oppo) are more impact resistant and durable than any other material available for a phone. I speak this from experience - I would be blind in one eye if not for polycarbonate plastic's impact resistance.
[Oppo Find 5] Allanitomwesh:
I'd say find 5 if your on a budget,and HTC's aren't the best choice if battery life is a concern...
[Oppo Find 5] Aerys:
I would choose Oppo find 5. There are many updates from Oppo and the phone is fantastic.
[Oppo Find 5] chaitanya87:
I am sure HTC one will have great support, but what about the locked bootloader? You will lose warranty as soon as you unlock it. So think twice before you choose a phone. Oppo is budget phone while HTC is costlier one. I think we should encourage Oppo so that they will release much more devices in the future.
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
To be honest I don't see how the price makes any difference here:

HTC One price 32gb (sim unlocked, bootloader locked )- 575$

64gb (sim and bootloader unlocked) - 650$

Oppo Find 5 16gb -500$ (but you can't really compare to any of the above due to storage)

32gb- 569$

So from what I can see the price difference is 6$ when comparing the 32gb units.

Now depending on where you live you might be able to get the Oppo Find 5 in your country or will need to get it shipped from Hong Kong as in the case of most of the world (including Europe) so you risk getting charged VAT (20% of value) and custom charges. In that case Oppo becomes significantly more expensive.

If you do live in the USA however then the decision between the two devices comes to personal preference. Both are great devices but do bare in mind that HTC One has the following advantages:

+Faster processor

+Higher Pixel density

+Aluminum unibody

+Possibly better developer support as most people will own the device (but you would have to buy the developer's edition to take full advantage of that)

As of now there are also other great devices on the market from China that might be worth considering as well such as Huawei Ascend D2. Alternatively you also have Xperia Z (which I currently own) and Samsung Galaxy s4.

To be honest I really wanted to buy the Oppo Find 5 here in Europe but due to lack of availability and the high import cost I have decided to choose something different. Buying a phone from Asia also will come with problems when servicing and looking for spare parts or accessories.

So summing up I don' t see the reason why anyone would opt for Oppo other than wanting to be unique. Don't get me wrong it is a great device indeed but it is just not competitive enough in the market right now. I wish that Oppo have released the device a lot sooner as I have been reading about since October 2012.
[Oppo Find 5] paperWastage:
Got a chance to look at the Xperia ZL and HTC One (Xperia Z isn't available in the US Sony Store unfortunately)

Xperia ZL - don't know which version of the display I was looking at, but viewing angles are definitely inferior to the Oppo (washed out when you don't look straight into the display). It is smaller (basically size of Oppo minus the bottom white non-screen portion)

HTC one - display similar to Oppo, lighter, feels just as good build-quality wise

I just dislike HTC enough (from previous device Amaze 4G, and the craptastic Sense) to not buy phones from them anymore

battery life for Find5 - people say the CM10.1 experimental has way better battery life...

If I had to choose between the Find 5 and HTC One (with a fully working CM10.1 build on both), it's hard to decide... but now, Sense is enough to say no for me
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
I personally wanted a 5" screen as being 6'3 I have big hands. It is a fact that the viewing angles are not great. The screen does offer beautiful color reproduction though and Sony offers great developer support which the owners can benefit from. There is a few bugs that are still present that I hope that will be resolved with the update.

Coming back to Oppo 5, as I said it is a great device but due to lack of access to it/ price I went for Xperia Z. So far I am super happy with the phone but I like to try out new devices and would love to get my hands on HTC ONE 64GB Developer Edition. It's a shame it's only available in the US. ( the price is kinda steep though :-/ and I personally don't care about Boom Sound or Zoe) I have seen pictures of the aluminum unibody scratching easily as well ( but that could be the paid of Sammy fans...LOL) but I carry my phone in a hard case anyways.

Long story short if I were to buy a phone in the US I would for sure go for HTC ONE DE. Because I live in Europe I think that the Xperia Z is one of the best options here. You can also find it for much cheaper than HTC ONE as it has been out for a while already ( and you get water resistance, a camera which allows you to zoom in (ekhm... HTC one 4mp) and an sd slot (rare these days)
[Oppo Find 5] vfnk:
well 6$ difference is not correct. i did some reading and apparently oppo declares their packages as 150$ value. so you will have to pay about 30$ vat depending on where you live in europe.

so i paid 449€ paying with paypal, plus 23€ duty, means a total of 472€.

compared to the 599€ of the same sized Htc One.

just saying.... ;)

and at the moment the availability of the oppo is way better - in Austria at least.

but of course importing phone from asia from a "small" company can cause some problems and might be a bit risky
[Oppo Find 5] ajftl:
Without a doubt HTC one
[Oppo Find 5] timtong:
once cyanogenmod 10.1 getting better on Find 5, I think it is more valuable to get a Find 5 than HTC one
[Oppo Find 5] Pixel69:
You are right on this point, it makes the phone impact resistant, and certainly more than glass or polycarbonate.

But what I meant, is that you have to be very careful if you want to keep its cosmetic aspect in good condition.

After a few weeks of use in normal conditions (phone in the pocket, onto the desk, back to pocket...), it has defects that I definitely wouldn't have had with an aluminium body.
[Oppo Find 5] Haas8:
Find 5 is here 200 euro cheaper then the one don't get it why there is such a big price difference :S
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
I think that it is part of HTC's marketing. They want it to be a premium phone so they put a premium price on it :)

I have looked at a few places in the UK and you can get the HTC ONE 32gb Black for 510£ which is pretty good compared to prices in some other European countries. I couldn't find a decently priced Oppo Find 5 anywhere (excluding oppostyle where it is being shipped from Hong Kong so you will most likely have to pay VAT 22%)
[Oppo Find 5] Haas8:
But they don't put the price on it that you paid but what they cost it to make it. This way it is still insured and you don't have to pay that much taxes.
[Oppo Find 5] aaronpoweruser:
How much does the find cost to make?
[Oppo Find 5] m4rkiz:
doesn't matter what they declare - if package get checked by the customs they will ask YOU for proof of purchase (card statement, paypal transaction etc.) and you will have to pay vat calculated from the TOTAL VALUE OF TRANSACTION (including delivery), luckily there is no import duty on mobile phones imported to EU from China\HK\SK so it is just 20-25% of vat depending where you live (plus post\courier handling fee if applicable)

i live in ireland - 16GB version for $499 from oppostyle.com can be either ~€380 if it slips thorough customs or ~€480 if it get caught, cheapest htc one i could find is ~€650 and that is way too much for a phone imo
[Oppo Find 5] Haas8:
Well mine got true, the good thing nobody knows anything about oppo phones. I guess if there was samsung S4 on it it would be a lot harder to get is cheap.

I only had to pay 23 euro for the . I just guessed it would cost that much to make the Oppo. They probably left out the costs of development en support only material costs. But I don't think the xperia z would cost more.

I don't know any one who was ever called by customs....
[Oppo Find 5] shem2409:
Well, you shouldn't really compare the 16gb version as the htc one comes with 32gb . I don't see why you couldn't find a cheaper HTC One (maybe in Ireland they go for 650eur) but if you are considering importing Oppo Find 5, you could as well consider importing the HTC One. You would find that the price would be in fact very similar between the 2 devices. Comparing the HTC One price in Ireland to that of Oppo from Hong Kong does not seem to be a fair comparison.

It seems like Europeans are really getting ripped off by HTC, but I guess it is part of their marketing. They wanna sell a premium product for a premium price. I managed to get the HTC One developer edition 64gb in the US today for 650$. (a friend is bringing it over). You could buy the 32gb unlocked version for 574$ (http://shopamerica.htc.com/cell-phones/productdetail.htm?prId=41589). Do bare in mind that the American versions will not support LTE bands in Europe (not a deal breaker for me though)
[Oppo Find 5] m4rkiz:
don't get me wrong, i'm not saying that htc one is bad phone, and for $574 it is definitely worth considering, i just don't care about storage size, (and i don't think that i would be ready to pay anything more than extra $25 to upgrade to 32GB on any phone)

shame that none of those has microsd, but i happily live with p990 with 16GB card now and hardly use more than 10GB of it anyway

must be an irish customs officers then - they always send me letter and ask to email them receipts (unless it is some $3 things from dealextreme etc.) or perhaps i'm on their black list as i have some small packets from asia at least once a week
[Oppo Find 5] Haas8:
It probalby cost them more the get the money then that you have to pay them :rolleyes:
[Oppo Find 5] ajftl:
Definitely the HTC one. I have the oppo too. The oppo is an ok device. The ui is terrible. U can always install a 3rd party launcher like nova yes but features talking the htc one wins. Faster too.
