So I'm still at work, waiting to get home and play with my new phone that was delivered today.

I am going to take my Micro SD card ot if my old phone, add pop it into the new Galaxy S4.

I haven't used the new version of Android yet, nor have I owned an android phone that didn't ship with a storage card.

How can I make it default to storing pictures, videos, data, etc, on the storage card? And is it possible to make it use the same directories my old phone used for these things?

Gday All

With nokia phones, you can set it to display the name of the cellular tower you are currently connected to (Settings -> Phone Settings -> Cell info Display).

Is there a similar function on the XDA (apart from GPS)

Also, on the old nokia phones, we would store diversion codes as contacts, so that we could divert our phones with only 1 button (ie, a contact named "Divert to Office" would have a phone number of "**21*phone number#")

On the O2, when we try the same thing, we get an error saying "Service functions must be entered directly from the keypad". Anyone know of a way to get arround it?

annoying isn't it.

You can send atdt to the modem with a terminal script in a similar way.

As the title says. I don't know anyway better way to describe it. Its noticeable when pulling up the keyboard ontop of a white background. Like when using Google Now. Anyone notice theirs doing the same? Its not bad or even impeding usability but if its not normal I still feel I should exchange for another new one while I still can. I have turned off dynamic screen mode and adapt display and every possible that could adjust the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sam2c:
I see the keyboard flicker, but only on low brightness. Funny cause htc one owners have the same issue with their keyboard. When i had the htc one, I had a problem where the screen would flicker non stop on low brightness. Went through 4 handsets, all had it. I know the new Snapdragon has a dynamic contrast feature built in....im not sure if Samsungs screen options are fully disabling it or not. I just know dynamic contrast was much much more noticeable with the One

Good response""

Thread closed as it has served its purpose and I can see it easily deviating from it and turning into something else.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] NJGSII:
Now before I post my findings, note I'm comparing firmware and not specifically any ROM that is on either forum. After spending some time using both 1.29.401.13 and 1.26.502.10 I have noticed differences between the two. I know which are better threads are frowned upon, but I feel that having a thread like this would be helpful since we're in the rare situation where the International and US phones can use either firmware due to having the same hardware. All other thoughts are welcomed, but as always you're mileage may vary.

AT&T Base

- Touch sensitivity not that strong

- Data speeds are often double what I got in the same location as I had with an International base. One of my tests I got just over 10mbps down on HSPA+.

- Boomsound slightly louder with music player.

International Base

- Performance is slightly snappier

- Data Speeds not as fast

-Battery life slightly better.

-Camera quality is also better.

-Touch sensitivity improved

-Boomsound is slightly quieter but seems to be more refined.

All in all, I'm sticking with the International for the moment as it's positives to me out weigh it's negatives. Notice how I haven't posted benchmarks, because I believe in only testing real world usage. But, if anyone wants to do so you're more than welcomed.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] henrybravo:
Once 1.29 comes to the AT&T model, hopefully the differences between the two are pretty much nonexistent (with LTE on the AT&T model as a plus).
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Nickel Dime Bay:
I also noticed the quieter boom sound, I'm on TrickDroid right now and thought something was wrong with my speakers, I like the att boom sound more.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tjsooley:
Do either firmware allow you to change network bands?

EG: switch from lte wcdma gsm to wcdma only or 2g only?

IN NYC I noticed no difference between data speeds on the AT&T rom compared to the international rom (I'm running renovate)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] schwags:
I still haven't seen a definitive answer on this, I've heard people saying two things. If I have the AT&T branded 32GB, unlocked and rooted, etc, am I able to install the International stock ROM? Or any ROM from the International version for that matter. I'd like to try the international ROM, but I don't want a brick.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tjsooley:
Not untill we have s-off. If the rom in the "international" section says its compatible it is. Once we have s-off we can flash the ruu for international i believe
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Marcismo55:
Just to clarify....RUU and ROM are two separate things. Yes, you can flash an international ROM on your bootloader-unlocked ATT One. Flashing the RUU or actual Firmware (radios, etc.) is not recommended until we get S-Off.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] schwags:
Makes sense, thanks for the clarification.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
I have the Dev Edition rom running on mine, anyone interested in a flashable zip? It doesn't have any noticeable drop in speeds compared to running the international version.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] vinuneuro:
So what exactly is necessary to get the 1.29 update with touch-sensitivity improvement released to non-carrier phones?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shook187:
Did this update fixed the " Beats Audio" snap crackle and popping sounds while watching YouTube videos? This is the only flaw my phone has and I have 3 days left before my 14 days are up. I'm trying to decide whether to keep my phone or exchange it.

My phone is absolutely flawless and I don't get the popping sound with Beats Audio off, so I'm leaning towards keeping it.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] schwags:
I would be interested for sure.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
Beats Audio is a gimmick, trash, marketing... It's boosting things pretty high causing you to hear the hissing, popping and such. I would suggest turning it off and installing PureXAudio, sounds much cleaner. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2211163

Can we flash international kernels? I'm thinking about trying out the one again but only if I can flash the kernel that turns the HTC to the menu button....
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shook187:
I just flashed it mod and it was as good as not having beats on. It didn't improve anything.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
You should turn beats off to use purexaudio.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] YoungAceAtlanta:
You can flash anything from the International version. Both devices are the same just different radio bands.

Radios and RUU I wouldn't flash.

Roms, recoveries, kernels yes..

Oh no... was about to flash Android Revolution HD, but designgears noted some network performance degradation... wonder how bad it is.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] NJGSII:
In real life it's not really that bad. On speakeasy speed test for me there is a noticeable dip.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Bonely:
Sorry if this is a high jack. But why not start off with the dev as a base instead of the att Rom. The radio's are the same right?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
WOOHOO, just found a fix for the slow wifi data on international kernels! (I think, testing further, seems fixed so far)

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] WTFunk:
Download from play store.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ChristopherXDA:
Aren't the versions included in the ATT stock the full versions of those apps though? Downloading from the app store would mean paying $$ for the "pro" versions of soundhound and tunein.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] WTFunk:
Pretty sure their the free versions. Just bloat being passed on as a benefit.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I've had this issue with lag on the Nexus 4 lockscreen for quite a while.

The problem is that occasionally when I go to the unlock the phone, I press the lock, but the lock will freeze. Sometimes I have to turn the screen off, and turn back on a couple of times before I can unlock the phone.

I've had this issue running CM10.1 and stock rooted android 4.2.2. I've tried doing a complete wipe and re-flashing everything.

Has anyone else had this issue? I've asked a couple of people I know who have Nexus 4's and none of them have had this problem.

Did I do something wrong, is this a common issue, or this an issue with my phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandonc0526:
I also get this occasionally from time to time. I honestly have no clue what it could be, since the screen is completely dry as are my fingers when it happens. Its a minor bug so it doesn't bother me that much
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I also sometimes get lag when I do manage to unlock, scrolling through my screens is very laggy for 5-10 seconds, then it is usually fine.

I have a problem with lockscreen lag on a phone with a quadcore CPU and 2 GB of RAM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigma392:
Flash a custom kernel. You'll be less likely to experience lag ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cipsaz:
Don't get any lockscreen lag on my stock Android.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
Have any recommendations?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
The latest trinity kernel (125) has perfected the lockscreen lag, It definitely unlocks instantly for me.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
Trying this out now. I especially liked how it told me my system was corrupted once it finished flashing...

First thing I've noticed is that the colour is a lot different. Do I need to play with any settings, or do I only need to have the kernel installed?

Also how often do updates come out?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
Messing with the settings is totally up to you. It works great "right out of the box." I don't like the stock color settings, I use trickster mod to change them to rgb 255, 255, 255 and everything else at 0 except saturation and blacks all the way up. This kernel is underclocked to 1026mhz by default, I set it to stock clock speeds. It's also undervolted by default so if you are having stability problems, try bumping up the voltage on all steps by 25mv. Updates come out pretty often, prolly a few times a month.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
The colours bothered me so I'm trying the latest franco nightly. It seems to be at the stock clock speed, no weird colours, and it makes the haptic feedback when unlocking feel more like the GNex.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I'm still having this issue with franco kernel. I've been looking around a bit and people seem to say this is related to auto brightness. I'm going to turn auto brightness off for a bit and see if it still happens.

Also, does anyone know if using a 3rd party app for auto brightness would make any difference?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
Okay, turns out auto brightness wasn't the issue. Still getting lockscreen lag. Help please.

If I put 5 fingers on the screen (when the screen is off), then press the lock button, when the screen comes on it will be completely unresponsive, some of the time. I'm not always able to replicate this.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeatyMutaWings:
for me, some releases of Franco have lockscreen lag, some don`t, try flashing the M2 or other post r121 builds, they are all great performers and maybe you`ll get lucky with one.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishek24dogra:
if ur using paranoid android, then its a stability issue i guesa cause the same thing used to happen with me...... or else try franco kernel... or update franco kernel if ur using franco, cause an older version had the lockscreen bug, which is now fixed!!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuu~:
Flash a stock kernel. You'll be less likely to experience lag ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I'm running CM 10.1 and the latest version of franco's kernel.

I've tried using a rooted stock and I had the same issue with lag.

I'm going to try franco's milestone build, see if I still get issues.

Would increasing the minimum clock likely help at all?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meangreenie:
Flash the reset kernel from _motley 's kernel thread, it replaces a lot of files that might of got changed via various other kernel flashes with stock ones.

the one that causes a lot of lock screen lag is the /system/lib/hw/power.msm8960.so file

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
Can I just flash this with CWM? And then flash back to franco m2?

I actually just got an RMA for my phone, because of this issue and that the back glass panel is a little loose and makes creaking noises. When I send the phone back to google, if I follow all the steps here and lock the bootloader, it should be fine to send back to them?

Google's RMA process was amazing. Took me all of 10 minutes. They're shipping a new one in 3-5 days, and they pay for the return shipping of my old device. The replacement is brand-new, not a refurbished device. My dad's iPhone 4S had a bunch of issues and he would have to book an appointment at the Apple store, which happens to be an hour away, and they would only replace his device with a refurbished one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] droyal:
I'm sorry if this has been posted before...But

I'm using the Sprint Galaxy SIII and for 2 days I've been searching and trying different keyboards looking for one comparable to the keyboard in cm 10.1. The emojis worked great on that. Since switching back to stock rooted touchwiz I haven't found anything that works as well. I've tried stock Android keyboard because that's what's everyone is saying works, but when I go to settings to add dictionary, there is no dictionary option for me to use to try to add emojis. I know someone will probably say browse the threads but I've done that for 2 days and haven't had any luck so if someone can just point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it. If you've used cm 10.1 that keyboard with those emojis would be perfect.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Yeah, I misunderstood the question, most of the ones in the market don't receive emoji at all. I wish Swype would add it, their keyboard is pretty good, now out of beta. The MMS app gives you the emoji send/receive experience and it's super customizable.

Do either one of you think it's at the 160 char limit or are the split msgs shorter than that?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tantan1892:
Shorter than 160 char
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MoHoGalore:
This really sounds like a sms encoding issue and carrier differences. (The good old days when you could change settings for uniformity.)

I'm really wondering if it isn't happening with the S4 (on receiving) based on that.

I'm at a loss on fixing the stock app. Only thing I could suggest is trying another messaging apk and test.
