android is different. It's meant for customization. You can tailor the phone to what you like. You should try installing a new launcher like Nova or Apex launcher. They offer customization that touchwiz (stock samsung doesn't offer). Also widgets, with a little time invested they can make your phone more convenient than any windows or apple phone. Zooperwidget, android pro widgets, and other programs like poweramp (music player) really make my phone what it is.

We aren't limited to opening apps by simple button icons. Some launchers allow you to setup gestures so instead of finding the button to press, you simply swipe your fingers a certain way and boom you're there. And there's also LMT launcher as someone mentioned earlier. You need root to use it but it's a great convenience. You can read up on it in the link below:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1330150

This is what my setup looks like, not as simple as windows or iphone.. but I can already see many things on the desktop I wouldn't usually find on other OS's. It may be harder to setup, but it pays off making you're phone convenient to your liking.

When will people learn that phones are all about preference. If you dont like or can't use the note2 with one hand its obviously not your phone. Dont kill yourself over it. Try something else

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rlee008:
sounds to me like you got a bigger phone than you can handle. i can use my note2 with one hand with Noooo problems. i can reach everything and type perfectly fine with one hand. you just might need a smaller phone so you can operate it correctly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] erica_renee:
Ok i have small hands .. Now this has me scared . My note will be here Tuesday.. I love my note 10.1 . So i thought i should have a phone with similar capabilities. I am so tired of having to pack both devices ..

Please say it aint so.

It aint so :D

My 4 year old daughter used my Note 2 with no issue. Single handed even.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] erica_renee:
yes i agree. I think most people who say its to big of a phone are trying to convince themselves Bigger is not always better when it comes to a phone.. But i think the note is at that point of no return.. Any bigger and i think it might be too big..

But the note 6 inch phone of the future If ??? we might be having the same debate wile all other phones are 5.5 inch and playing catch up..

Note 2 to me is bleeding edge technology with a Samsung twist. I cant wait to get mine two more days.. grrrr waiting sucks ..

Hi! is there anyone here who have a copy of the software? Unfortunately I cand donwload the file. Ive answered the surveys and yet no downlink is appearing on the page. www simlockcalculators.com/htc-free-unlock-codes-calculator

from the comments seems like working great. i want to sim unlock my htc for free. :)
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
lol, don't waste your time.....there's no coeds to be had for this, its predominantly locked to O2 or Vodafone, so cannot be Sim Unlocked. I've tried many times since this phone was released.
[HTC Salsa] drahc24:
thanks. looks like no choice but to pay for it. are those paid codes via supplying your imei in the internet reliable?
[HTC Salsa] vigoos:
Nope. You can't trust people now a days, don't risk it and waste your time.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
i wouldn't even think about unlocking it. These days most people don't need to unlock them, last person i spoke to about unlocking my salsa didn't even know what it was let alone have software for them....

Internet unlocks will rip you off. I did it once on an old Nokia 5000, got the code...same as the free sites, didn't work. Couldn't get a refund either.....my advice is, want the phone sim unlocked, buy a phone on the network your on!
[HTC Salsa] drahc24:
Problem is the fone is from a relative from abroad. Its lock to vodafone. The only carrier here in the philippines are globe, sun and smart. Thats why i need to unlock the fone. Its was recently given to me.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
you got no hope....sorry
[HTC Salsa] drahc24:

Hi All,

As all you know me and as promised, I have started the development of MHL with the help of our Master Adam77Root.

All my updates, queries will be posted here, I will learn to update the source in github so that it can be used for our other Developers.

Hope everyone knows what is MHL... If not just check in google or our accessory section..

Wish me Best of Luck in the new challenge :)

Just checked the commit. The ifdef in line 980 and lines from 1009 to 1021 (the else part) aren't needed.

The kernel log seems to be good. It complains about GPIO request, it might be because of them not being available on our device. The input device is at least registered, this is maybe what causes hardware buttons issue.

Apparently they will release a newer version of a Jelly bean ROM, Android 4.3, apperently with codename 'Android 4.3 JWR23B'.

Rumors told me that Google already tested Android 4.3 on a galaxy nexus 7 and nexus 4.

-what could be new in android 4.3/5.0?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerSilva:
Hi all, How are you?

I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4..2.2(JDQ39) unrooted.

I delete a picasa web album by mistake, but It was downloaded on the stock Gallery app (version 1.1.40001).

So I am trying to figure out where the stock Gallery app restore photos checked to be offline in order to restore my photos.

Please, Does someone know where stock Gallery app store the off line albums?

(I have already checked sdcard/Android/data/com.android.gallery3d/cache and /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache folders and both are empty)

Thanks in advance,

Roger
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
How did you delete the web album? I just tried and it didnt give me the option to delete. And I havent seen an option for offline viewing.

By the way, there is no need to post the same question in two different forums.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerSilva:
Hi jsgraphicart,

thanks for helping.

I have deleted the album using Picasa Web interface ( I am using the old interface as I deleted my google plus profile to prevent integration with google plus).

On the stock gallery app, there is an option on the top right menu(three dots on top right) to "make available offline".

So the deleted album is stored somewhere in my phone because I made it available offline (I can still the the photos on my phone, although It was deleted from Picasa Web), but I don`t know where it is stored...

Sorry, I didn't know in which forum to post this topic, is this the right one?

Thanks a lot,

Roger
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
That must be a stock thing. I'm using a custom ROM, which the stock gallery app is integrated with Picasa, and I dont have that option. Google is making it almost necessary to have a Google+ account. Even when you create a YouTube account, it automatically creates a Google+ account. I'm not a big fan of HAVING to have one, but its there and I dont use it other than to sync my photos between devices. To answer your question though, I have no idea where the offline folder is. Sorry.

And yes, the Q&A section is the right place for Questions and Answers. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerSilva:
Hi jsgraphicart,

thanks again.

Yes...I am running stock unrooted Android 4.2.2.

No problem, I have searched about this issue on google, and I read somewhere that offline picasa photos should be stored on one of the following folders: sdcard/Android/data/com.android.gallery3d/cache or /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache

However, both folders are empty on my device =/

Please, Does someone know where stock gallery app store its offline photos?

Thanks

So have looking to upgrade - but using the XDATool doesn't upgrade at all. I have read that SER 1.2 needs a unix box etc?? Is there another way......and via the USB cradle.

Hi

I am having a problem where I can't get my phone (xperia S) into fast boot mode althow it's rooted, and it's starting to run a bit slow. So am wondering if a factory reset wold solv the problem, and if a wold loos my rooting. (I'm wondering if it was my rooting with messed it up and in that case it wold solve it).

Factory reset just wipe /data & /cache. You shouldn't lost root.

- Isak - The big problem is that I can't get it into fastboot so I can't install clocworksmod recovery, witch I realy needs so I can flash Jelly Bean on it and get Google Now and al those cool tings, and a performance boost. You don't hapen to know a program that installs clockworksmod recovery "automaticly" (like a exe-file or somthings) where you just put in the informatin, klick go and wate for a bit. That wold realy help sins I can't do it automatically for some reson.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cities516:
You can use RecoverX to install CWM w/o entering fastboot.

Or if your bootloader is unlocked, flash a custom kernel which includes recovery mode.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
That's probably what he wants to do, install a kernel.

To the guy asking: is your bootloader unlocked? Did you set up the fastboot drivers properly? Are you on Windows7 64 bit or Windows 8? It takes some looking up to get it working .

You can do it ;).
