[Galaxy S 4 General] ilabs:
I think it has more to do with AMOLED. Standard LCDs have a single backlight and it doesn't really matter that colours are on the screen. For ann AMOLED, each sub-pixel is a light source and emits its own light.

Web pages are almost all white, which means almost all the sub-pixels are cranked up to bring out the white, which drains more battery. Yet, AMOLEDs are more power efficient in everyday use. That has to do with statistics. Most images aren't all white, and generally have a lot of darker colours, especially videos, where the AMOLED excels. But keeping all sub-pixels on like for an all-white web page will be bad for battery on a phone with an AMOLED screen. Its the major reason why newer android browsers are coming with the option to invert colours, and probably why sammy uses black for its settings background. Thats also why you should stick to darker wallpapers on an AMOLED screen if you wanna have longer battery life

The LCD on the other hand has to have its power hungry backlight on all the time, no matter what the screen colour. So it really doesn't matter to an LCD whether you're watching a movie or going through a web page. So in statistically average and most normal use, AMOLED performs better than LCD, while specific stress tests will have varying results.
[Galaxy S 4 General] GTRagnarok:
At least it's an improvement over the S3. A 1080p AMOLED screen displaying white webpages is going to drain the battery in a hurry.
[Galaxy S 4 General] pack21:
Its because it have air & gestures on. If u want better battery on browser just turn off those sensor.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Toss3:
AMOLEDs still are not as efficient at displaying whites and most websites use white backgrounds, so it should come as no surprise that the HTC One is better at browsing.

I also would not trust any battery-tests as they are highly subjective; I know that many complained about the battery performance of the Nexus 4, but after tweaking it, I have found it to be much better than that of my old S3(also tweaked).
[Galaxy S 4 General] msavic6:
I take all these results with a grain of salt. I will draw my conclusions from battery usage screen shots posted by xda'ers. I care more about real world usage then how long I can loop a page in the web browser.

I deleted a thread a few seconds before an incoming message was in.

I tried deleting cache, dalvik, mms cache, apex launcher cache, and tried rebooting.

Any solutions?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _hito_:
It happened to me too, I had to re-flash ROM, not sure if anybody has a solution:):rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
I re-flashed my rom and promise not to delete any thread if iam still having a conversation with the person :rolleyes:

Clearly, this is not a good solution.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maisam.asif:
Maybe fixing permissions can help you... Not quite sure... But you can definitely give it a shot ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej8989:
I solved it by re-flashing the rom.

I did several possible solutions before doing it but they didn't work:

-Reboot, clear cache/dalvik, fix permissions, clear app cache and launcher cache, received a message from the bugged contact then re-deleted the thread, flashed another kernel, etc.)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maisam.asif:
Good to know... BTW, are you using Slim Bean latest build?

Hey guys :)

In their life, devs have surely a lot of things to think of, and NO, none of them is making thousands MODs for a ROM that works just fine. One of the most annoying requests that are flooding our forums is the black statusbar.

Well,thanks to the xPosed framework (You can find my thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2196265) you can black out your status bar (but that's one of the great things you can achieve using xPosed) without any development knowledge.

PAY ATTENTION: to apply this MOD, I assume you're able to press some buttons on your screen - just kidding :silly:

Instructions:

First of all, get xPosed Installer here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

(Of course you need root+ busybox - if you're rooted but you've some problems you'll have to update your busybox, there's plenty of apps on the market that can do this)

Once you installed the app, open it, and press the "Install/Update" button, then if everything goes fine, reboot your phone. Once it's on again,download the xPosed Tweakbox from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1629653 and install it.

open xPosed installer,go to the "Modules" tab and tick the xPosed Tweakbox box. In the app drawer you should have a new icon (the Tweakbox,of course), open it.

Now you'll see some options: let's focus on "Statusbar"

Tick the box near "Background color"

Once it's no more grayed, click on it and then you'll have a color slider

Move the slider,press on the right color box to apply aaand you're done :D If you don't see any change,reboot your phone.

But the xposed tweakbox is not limited to this! If you go to "Miscellanous" you'll find an useful feature you can find in CyanogenMod: skip tracks with the volume buttons when the screen is off. :laugh:

This thread has the purpose to be an input: now that you have set up your xPosed framework, go and discover by yourself its great potential!
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] ztandroid:
Nice stuff :D
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] g3rrydanc3:
What music player work with skip track?

I try poweramp, not working
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] dariolob:
Stock works fine:) haven't tried with others though!
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] QuanticZero97:
Is there any way you can deinstall xposed and leave the changes you made?
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] 4everAnoob:
Doesnt seem to work on DModV4... installed busybox but xposed installer always fails with "not found" errors, like it doesnt have proper permissions or something
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] QuanticZero97:
You did something wrong, it works for me...
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] g3rrydanc3:
I try use poweramp and working

but not with stock player

Using benzrom 6
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] ThePietn1:
I had the same problem, easy to solve.

Just create a 'xposed' folder in your data directory with a root explorer. :D
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] vriz27:
created the folder but errors remain...:confused::confused::confused:

View attachment 1918451

i think the errors problem has to do with busybox. updated to latest version and app installed ok!!!
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] ThePietn1:
Don't forget to mount /system and /data R/W with your favorite root explorer (I use ES File Explorer). ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini Themes and Apps] ariw182:
Tried this with benzrom v4.1, the statbar color doesnt change, but tried change clock color work well

Hi SentryMescudi,

did you instal CWM?

if you have it already installed then turn off your awsome L9 and then when your phone is completely off push VOLup+Home button and then power button.

Happy flashing.:D

[Nook Touch General] amjazz:
Hey guys,

I've been wanting to snag an e-Ink based reader for quite sometime now. I have an iPad 3 and reading on it is a bit of a chore since its a bit heavy (with a case). I came across this Kobo Aura HD and decided to buy until I realized that the Nook Touch can be rooted and actual Android apps can be run on it.

I also have a ton of books on PDF, so how do the Nook and the Kobo (if any of you are aware about) handle them?

Is the Nook Touch worth getting over a high-rez e-Ink screen?

Also, where can I get the Nook Touch online?

Thanks in Anticipation.
[Nook Touch General] David0226:
I have a Nook Simple Touch that I read on all the time. I rooted it a couple of days before its warranty expired. Honestly, I don't really run any Android apps on it. I have 5 or 10 installed including Kindle and coolreader and pageturner. I always end up using the stock reader. I have been able to make some modifications using root that allow the Nook to work more to my preferences, but as far as running Android apps, I will take my wife's Nexus 7 every time, or even my Driod 4. If you have an iPad already, I personally would look at the Aura HD or a Kindle Paperwhite depending on the funds you have available. My Nook is not a glowlight and I do wish it had the built in front light. As for a "HD" screen, my personal opinion is that they are very nice, but honestly, my NST has sharper text than most printed books so I am not sure if the higher resolution is necessary. Now, with regard to your PDF books, if they are basically text with few or no graphics, I believe that most e-readers will handle those. If they are graphics intensive, like technical manuals, then I would wait until I see reviews of the Aura HD to make a decision. I think most small e-readers and even "HD" tablets are too small to read graphics intensive PDFs.

If you are in the US, you can buy the Nook online at http://www.barnesandnoble.com

[read the description]

The quality is poor, the sound is irrelevant. Still, it shows some of the PDF viewers in action using different screen refresh modes.

Main advantage of NST is good handling of badly converted PDF's or PDF's with lots of images/tables.

Most E-book reader try to perform a 'text reflow' on PDF's which means it converts them to text.

If the PDF is made from photographs, it's unreadable using 'reflow'.

The stock reader which is not shown in the video uses "text reflow" and is pretty good at converting to text.

If you want to buy NST outside of US try one of the British shops or Ebay
[Nook Touch General] digixmax:
I use my NST for virtually all my ereading, the display resolution is very good and each battery charge lasts several weeks. I rooted it so that I can install and use better ereader (Mantano) and browser (Opera Mobile), plus a couple of news/weather apps (NPR, Weather Channel). I also love the fact (with a modded kernel) it can play audio via a USB audio adapter (although I have not yet found a working volume-control app so that I can listen using earphones).
[Nook Touch General] LoopyDood:
Have you tried reassigning the page-turn buttons to volume up/down? That's what I did because most reading apps use the volume buttons to turn pages. When I press those reassigned buttons outside of a reading app, the volume bar pops up and lets me adjust it.

Here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18113297&postcount=4

The only question I have is if the factory reset by pressing the two bottom buttons at startup still works after this tweak.

Just so everyone knows, the Kobo Aura HD can have Android installed on it! It's just Gingerbread 2.3.4 but man the hardware is way better than the Nook ST
[LG Optimus 3D] keith210350:
Could someone please let me know if these problems are with my installation,or if all v30a updates have the same problems.

UK unlocked phone on T-mobile

Factory ICS V30A upgrade from factory 2.3.5

Done a software factory reset via settings and wiped sd card. Done a Factory reset via bootup menu. I'm still getting these problems.

No mpo photo viewer displays pics as 1/2 [ left image/right image ] but flickers between the two images if you move the phone around.

3D game app formatter crashes does not work at all

Very very slow media file scanning when restarting/dis-connecting phone from usb

VOL- plus powerbutton no options ( bootloader/menu) only factory reset(no android backup etc)

New 3D video codec uses "frame tripling" whats that? It crashes windows explorer

Strange icon in status bar (next to signal meter)

Try reflashing the rom, there's something wrong with yours.

Thanks for your original reply. Need some more information please

Are you using official V30a ...and does the 3D game and app formatter work... and can you view MPO stereo 3D files correctly. Thanks
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] flintanis:
I have an XDA1 through O2. I live in UK and have a monthly contract with O2.

(ROM 3.17.03 ENG Radio 4.21.00)

I have upgraded to the latest ROM available on the O2 internet site, but was wondering if they are to release a PPC2003 ROM upgrade. Does anyone know?

If not is there a stable ROM available that I could use?

Do I also have to upgrade the Radio Stack?

Thanks for any advice.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
there is no official WM2003 from O2, if ur RSU 4.21 is working fine do NOT touch it!! ... read quite well in this forum then cook ur own ROM from the kitchen here ... TMO 4.01.00 is so good and stable.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] flintanis:
Thanks. Not cooked a ROM before. Is this easy? Is there a ROM available that I could just download and install?

Thanks again
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
Yes!! ... it's so easy as long as you know what you are doing :)

Go to this page http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ select the type and base of your new ROM (WM2003 4.01.00) ... keep checking/unchecking additional s/w but keep the top gauge in green.

Select the type of your ROM ... exe is easier but .nbf with SD card is safer

download the exe file (~17 MB) and connect your device to the cradle and sync with power connected ... run the exe from the PC

enjoy :)
[HTC One X+] m4r0v3r:
Yeah this may sound stupid but here as far as I can get, I've unlocked the boot loader, I've flashed either recovery they both load fine.

When I tried to install SuperSu, letting TWRP do it when you exit, and that achieved me a fine fine brick, that it'd get stuck on HTC screen on boot forever, so I went back into bootloader and flashed complete stock again, locking the bootloader before hand ofc, so then I redid all the steps aside from flashing supersu and I get this error when flashing the latest CM10.1

No matter what I do I get that error, do I need to be rooted to install a custom room? Stupid question but yeah.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Hi m4r0v3r,

This thread should help you get there.
[One (M7) General] androidindian:
HTC One announced in China. Gets dual SIM, micro-SD, removable back-cover, but no removable battery

More info at : Source
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
Wow even when htc include a removable back cover, they make it so that you can't remove the battery :/ they must reallly hate taking out batteries or something. For some people, if this had removable battery, this wouldve been what the htc one should've been.
[One (M7) General] hamdir:
it wouldnt be the one that should have been

the battery is located behind the pcb, so its sandwished in the middle, impossible to remove, you will a lot of sturdiness and introduce creaks with an open-able shell

the antenna plastic gaps on the back are not gapless in the Chinese model you can they extrude
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
Yh I had a hint that these problems would arise, but I meant if they actually implemented a removable battery, for some, this may have made it their ideal phone. Obviously how the phone is now is the only way htc could achieve this supreme build quality
[One (M7) General] patato2:
I have these question for LONG! really i don't think its impossible to have removable bat. and SD card and keep the ONE looks(giving up the unibody for sure). That's one of the reasons I dislike Peter Chow.
[One (M7) General] gruuvin:
Another good reason to wait a while and not order the initial release. This is a step in the right direction to a smarter design.
[One (M7) General] daddioj:
people really need to stop with this removable battery non sense. its overrated. plus they have external packs that solve this problem. i use one and works very well. 2 i dont like the idea of removing the back every day to swap battery and wear out the cover. 2 sd card slots are becoming a non issue as capacity gets higher. 64 gb one i have. who needs more than that? if you do get a pc. you have issues LOL
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Really couldn't agree more. On my Gnex SII note and SIII I had extra batteries and would remove the back covers within a month I had to purchase new back covers as they started to wear out not snapping into place securely. If you need a removable battery and SD go get a S4 or note 2 but as we all know that phone feels cheap. The plastic creaks this is because they have a removable battery. I'll admit I want my cake and eat it to but no one has made that design and when you look most solid feeling premium devices have internal batteries.
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
this means the battery may be removable, else why would HTC put in the screws

probably just remove the screws and can get to the internals?

it looks like the standard HTC lay out, used toown the HTC HD7 windows phone , just need a torx screwdriver to remove them and u can get to the internals eaily
[One (M7) General] Long813:
A dual SIM is a really neat feature for people who travel a lot, and more importantly those who has separate business phones. Great to see this as an option to some.
[One (M7) General] redder95:
Anyone knows how much it'll cost for a CDMA2000 n GSM version? I hope the Indonesian market gets the dual sim version as well. :D
[One (M7) General] Hunt3r.j2:
Looks like this loses the all-metal design, are the antennas still metal?
[One (M7) General] ratykat:
Is this genuine? The reason that I ask is that the one doesn't have toggles in the notification area but this Chinese one does?
[One (M7) General] jlevy73:
Guys, having been doing business in China for 15 years, I will never use a Chinese version of any Android device even if it was free. First major problem is they strip every ounce of google from the device (and getting it back on is not easy). Blinkfeed will only source Chinese links no matter what custom Rom you are on. That's good if you read mandarin, but if not that function is pointless. There are many other changes that are just straight annoying and development for these devices will be very small due to changes that require developers to maintain multiple roms for different variants. Yeah, I'm a bit bitter because I've had Chinese variants before and they are awful if you've ever used International/Euro/US versions of the same device.
[One (M7) General] ataft:
I'll back this up.

My girlfriend had the no google store issue on her old Note, and now I'm using my friend's Anycall Galaxy S (korean, but popular in china) until my One arrives.. this phone is a nightmare considering it isn't the international version.

Hope these chinese versions don't have these types of problems.
[One (M7) General] redder95:
Don't think I'll mind though. I'll probably have nova launcher installed. Wont be needing blinkfeed. And for the other apps I need, I'd probably get them installed manually from .apk files. Unless they also disable this function then it's really gonna be bad.

I only need the dual sim functionality for CDMA2000 and GSM network. Gonna use it mostly for voice calling, camera function, and abit of browsing.

It's not operator locked I hope.
[One (M7) General] jlevy73:
They disable the ability to sideload any google apps. There are ways around it but like I said, it's not easy.
[One (M7) General] jonstatt:
People...you are missing the whole point of why people want to change the battery! So please stop suggesting its a non-issue.

Phone contracts these days are typically 2 years. If you are charging your phone everyday, the battery starts to diminish noticeably after about 1 year, with it becoming problematic often somewhere before 2 years. I wouldn't want to open it to change it all the time....but the battery is totally non-replaceable which means it may prove to be problematic to see out the phone contract before getting the next upgrade!
[One (M7) General] gruuvin:
Nobody cares what you think you will need as an individual. A decision has been made for you about what you need as part of the collective, and it is up to you now to conform. You are lucky that you got expandable memory, because it has already been decided that you didn't need that either!! [/communism]
[One (M7) General] nerdo:
For those who are doubting, yes this is real, check HTC China site (tip, use google site translate for specs)

http://www.htc.com/cn/smartphones/htc-one/#overview

But this version has no 4G/LTE support.

It's really annoying how HTC has become inconsistent with their designs and hardware for one model :mad:
[One (M7) General] jlevy73:
That's because there is no 4G/LTE in China. China Unicom has WCDMA for 3G and China Mobile TD-CDMA for 3G. Both carriers are testing 4G but none have implemented them yet. More importantly it's China. If you want to sell devices in China you must abide by very strict Chinese central government rules. Nobody dictates to China what to sell it's the other way around.

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

About 4800RMB which is about $700USD.
[One (M7) General] ataft:
I asked this in another thread, but I'll do it again here since it will be important to any potential buyers of these phones (myself included).

Anyone know if these chinese versions will be compatible with the international version's custom Roms/kernels? I will be buying from HTC direct, but I am unsure if they will be selling me the international version, or an unlocked chinese version... If they are likely to be incompatible, then I need to cancel my order...

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

You seem to have a good amount of experience with the telecom providers in China. Any advice on which one is best? I'm using China Mobile, but it is so slow. Considering switching to Unicom when my One arrives.
[One (M7) General] jlevy73:
There is a very good chance the China mobile variant will not support international Rom's because it uses a proprietary CDMA format. I had the China mobile version of the SGS3 and it was totally incompatible with international Rom's.

China Unicom has the faster 3G, and it's GSM based but China mobile has much better reception. So if you stay in the major cities you should be fine with China Unicom but if you do a fair bit of traveling within China, you might want to keep a China mobile device around.
[One (M7) General] oji-bb:
As a Chinese, i was shocked for the redesign...I hope I can buy a international version ONE.
