[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiLockOn:
Fair enough. I suppose I did contradict myself, didn't I :)

By the way I'm getting the i9505 as well.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mithrandir007:
Yeah, but truth is that it's still hard to tell which version is better, and it probably won't even make much difference in usage :)

Battery usage is still unknown too, even though on paper, the Exynos sounds good, it really depends on what you do, and how well the dual processor architecture manages that.

Faster than the Snapdragon 600

Sammobile managed to get their hands on the Samsung Galaxy S4 that actually features Samsung's own Exynos 5 Octa chipset rather than the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 that will be available in most regions. Judging by the results, it looks like Samsung's high hopes for the Exynos 5 Octa were well founded.

Unfortunately, Sammobile.com is still working on a full review of the GT-I9500 Samsung Galaxy S4 but in Antutu and Quadrant benchmarks, Exynos 5 Octa Galaxy S4 was faster than any other device, including HTC One and Sony Xperia Z. It scored 27417 in Anutut benchmark and 12726 in Quadrant benchmark."

http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/30908-samsung-galaxy-s4-exynos-5-octa-benchmarks-are-out

Sorry if this link was referenced before I didn't read the whole thread.

Exynos primary purpose was for power efficiency so I presume it will provide comparable speeds at less consumption.

The korean version is exynos at 1.8ghz so that should be moderately faster than S600
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demlasjr:
I have not decided which one to buy either, that's why I'm gonna wait 1-2 weeks more to see Octa complete review and maybe the prices will also drop a little...

Initially I wanted i9500, but I kinda changed my mind.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xTristinx:
Why don't you wait a month or two and get the octacore LTE version. I'm sure that will be out soon enough? or just get the regular octacore and sell it when the lte one comes out ;D

From what I have read,if the article is true, the nexus 5 will be using tegra 4.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i9100g user:
No it won't.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demlasjr:
It's not only because of the LTE, because I'm using HSPA+. I don't know which version to get because of the GPU (which is considerable weaker on the Octa version) and A15 seems to use more energy and unstable right now (read some reviews here). Also, I need to pay with almost $100 to get the Octa right now...and I don't think there will be an Octa LTE version, other than the Korean version... :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAAAAAATIUUUU:
Conclusion:

CPU wise - Exynos 5 Octa, its main clocked speed is 1.8ghz, its just underclock to 1.6ghz to be equal with snapdragon 600. If we can overclock this thing we can reach 35k +++ in Antutu

GPU wise - Snapdragon 800, the Adreno 330 is far better than the PowerVR Gpu <------- this causes the heat from the Galaxy S4
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stondec100:
From all published benchmarks on the Web, the Snapdragon 800 is significantly faster than Exynos 5 Octa., however Samsung is planning to unveil an improved Exynos 5 Octa next week,, so maybe that will be as fast or faster than the Snapdragon 800

From my personal experience if you want an absolutely buttery smooth experience and a more beautiful UI, go for Nexus (or maybe the Motorola X phone), but if you want better specs (which don't really translate to a smoother experience) and a more functional and in many ways more intuitive experience go for Samsung Galaxy.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i9100g user:
Well the new octa is all set to compete with S800.

This is a simple script written in Python for Android devices. I'm just learning Python but I hope this simple demonstration will inspire others to learn how to program. This has some XML mixed in with it.

This website will give more information on running Python with Android:

http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/

Here is the link for the script:

http://db.tt/xbZwabUk

Here are some screenshots of the program in action but remember the screen brightness was turned all the way to 100% (or 255) by the script. The shot showing the console was initially a mistake I came across by typing a wrong value for the color but I liked it so it stayed. Now I'm working on a calculator program.
[Android Software Development] Ninosmaxima:
What did you use to compile the script

Into an app?
[Android Software Development] Bejda:
After installing the app you have sl4a/scripts folder on sdcard.
[Android Software Development] Ninosmaxima:
Sorry let me rephrase...

OK so I make websites and I occasionally script.

How did you turn that script into an app, from a txt file to apk. is there a guide you followed?
[Android Software Development] Guitarman:
I haven't converted this script yet for an .apk file. There is an easy way to convert it but it would require the user to install the Python 4 Android app in addition to the .apk of the script. There is also a way to compile the interpreter and script in one .apk for easy distribution.

This site will provide more info and Google also has a wealth of knowledge :)

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dbzabster:
Just got HTC One launch day.

Immediately began work on rooting the phone. Installed TWRP and got root access for the most part, but found that this did not give rw access to the system partition.

Found viperboy's post regarding this issue. When I tried to flash the zip file "Sprint_One_Root_Disable_System_RW_Protection.zip" the phone rebooted. After, SuperSU was no longer installed nor was su for root access. TWRP is now no longer able to flash anything at all. The phone still works fine but I seem to be back to ground zero.

Just hoping someone else has encountered this.

- Update -

Upon further exploring I found that all the files were pushed to the android system and that the su file still exists in /system/xbin/, but There is no longer permission to run said command. I tried manually re-pushing all the files but no change.

It seems if anything (even TWRP) tries to access the system partition the phone reboots.
[Android General] Ravage32:
This is a Guide on How to get The Google Play Store v3.7 on Spreadtrum Phones.

I had some trouble trying to get the Play Store on these phone.

Normal installing did not work for any Versions. :confused:

The problem was that the Spreadtrum Phones Without The play stores are

also missing another app called GoogleServicesFramework that allows you

to login to the Play Store.

That is Why it would crash every time it was installed!

Here I'll show you what to do to get it to work.

Downloads

GooglePlayStore v3.7

ServicesFramework

*Note.You have to be rooted

1. Copy the downloaded files to you SD-Card

2. In a Root Explorer copy those file to /system/app

3. Restart your phone.

If all goes well you should have the Google play store and it should let you log in!

You could try this method with other version although i never have tested it, it should

still work once you have the ServiceFramework!

If you come into any problems feel free to ask! Cheers!

Dear sirs, I followed the procedure in order to upgrade my Sony Tablet P SGPT211US/S. My tablet was already rooted via All In One so I tried to upgrade it to ICS using Flasher option 1b downloaded from this link:

After a while, my tablet's screen went black and didn't respond. I rebooting it but after doing the Sony logo all I get is thousand of pixels and nothing happens. I tried booting recovery and flash "signed-nbx02_001-installer-01202.009.zip" but i have "E:Prohibit update as a result of checking version or base sku".Command "ADB devices "cant detect the tablet.

Please tell me what can I do.
[Sony Tablet S] bin5988:
any1 help me plz!!!!
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
FIRST OF ALL DO NOT RESET FACTORY SETTINGS. Hopefully you have usb debugging enabled???? If you have reset then you are screwed.

Tablet P US is crap, there are no updates available other than the installer (there is a 3.2.1R2 but no one has this file). If you had done some research then you would have know to change region to something that has support.

So if you don't have usb debugging enable then you can't do a lot and will need to go to service.

Flasher is ONLY to be used when upgrading from ICS to the ICS as stated in the 1st post. Hence you are having troubles.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are not the first and won't be the last

Hey guys, i found quite a few users complaining about the back cover supplied to them with the phone as it consists of cheap quality rubber.

Even mine one got torn into pieces from one side after 9 months :eek::crying:..

There's quite a confusion in members about where to buy the new cover as i myself have tried out all possible options and came to find out that the service center in my place(punjab) sell it for hefty 1650...:eek:

So i decided to buy it online and came across the forum and found no valid answer as amazon and other foreign websites are selling it for 10$ but charging 10$ for shipping too:silly:

I personally ordered the White back cover from ebay.in

http://www.ebay.in/itm/230962661634

and got it for only 590/- compared to 1650:D..although its now selling for 490:rolleyes:...lol

Excellent shipping and 2 days delivery...and genuine HTC... would have uploaded the pics of new cover but can't the digicam is with my cousin..wil do it later...So for all you confused members go for it, in 490/- if u can apply coupons u can get it for even less :laugh:

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miodrage:
Nope, windows is an OS, and it cannot be overclocked.

Overclocking is reserved to some hardware parts, like RAM, CPU, possibly even HDD.

Now, on computers some of these operations can easily be done, but on phones... well it's a tough one. Even if u succeed, the battery will die in a matter of several hours. So what is the point then?

I managed to get around 24h of standby time and around 4h of screen-on time with 2G and wifi with moderate use but the results may differ based on personal use.

These are the profiles that would help to increase the battery life without sacrificing the performance.

Profile Name: Screen On

Conditions: Screen On

CPU Max: 800Mhz

CPU Min: 200Mhz

Governor: Lionheart

I/O Scheduler: Row

Priority: 50, Exclusive

Profile Name: Screen Off

Conditions: Screen Off

CPU Max: 400Mhz

CPU Min: 200Mhz

Governor: Lazy

I/O Scheduler: Row

Priority: 90, Exclusive

Profile Name: Games

Conditions: Any of these are true(All games)

CPU Max: 1000Mhz

CPU Min: 200Mhz

Governor: Performance

I/O Scheduler: Row

Priority: 55, Exclusive

Optional

If you experience lags during music playback when the screen is off.

Profile Name: Music

Conditions: Any of these are true(Walkman,In Call)

CPU Max: 800Mhz

CPU Min: 200Mhz

Governor: Lionheart

I/O Scheduler: Row

Priority: 91, Exclusive

Note:

1.I tried this on Xperia P, but it should work on U, GO and SOLA as well.

2.People with Stock Kernel could use governors like Ondemand,Powersave and Performance.

3.Remember to uncheck "set on boot" option on any other app that changes the CPU settings like No-Frills etc to avoid conflicts.

4.Please do not ask for download link of SetCPU as its a paid app and it is against XDA rules to post Warez,you have Google for that...;)
