Of course not, ;) but as far as design maybe ....

I have been looking for a phone to upgrade from my iPhone 5 for sometime.

I missed the screen size and resolution of my old Galaxy Siii and although the iPhone is very nice there are a number of frustrations. For example having to go home button-next screen-settings-WiFi-off/on just to toggle WiFi is ridiculous, or to not have any browser choices with flash, etc. etc.*

Studying the market it seems it's between the One and the S4. The Sony Z has a few unique features but is not attractive. Other phones like the Motorola HD are nice but not really comparable on features. Once you have seen a 1920 screen you can't really go back.

On paper the S4 has a slight advantage although I applaud HTC for trying to end the pointless pixel war. As a amateur photographer I can say that all mobile phone cameras are cr@p so why have bigger files which just waste space ?*

However once the phones are in your hand it's another story. The One is just beautiful. It it a phone you really want to just pickup.

I went to buy a S4 and came out with a One, for pretty much the same price.

The S4 is not only plastic fantastic but the design is still stuck in the iPhone 3 groove which Samsung originally copied.

The S4 is a great phone, but for me the One is almost perfect. The screen size and weight, the design, the georgeous screen, the software, the speed.

Sure, nothing is perfect, the One get a bit warm in use, it would be nice to have a SD card slot, a polishing cloth would be nice in the box ;) etc. but this really feels like sniping.

It's difficult to know where phones go from here. Apart from 1tb of flash storage and a 5000mah battery I can't think of anything. I don't need more size, resolution or speed really. I suppose a display port or HDMI would be good with a keyboard and mouse in the box to use as a computer, I mean this is more powerful then most peoples PCs and Macs right ?

I take my hat off to HTC and wish them speedy restoration of their former glory!
[One (M7) General] Riyal:
Just a correction... It's not as powerful to the current PCs & Macs.

It might be quad core and has almost the same ghz that CPU processors but truth is it's too tiny to be of match to computers. Perhaps the performance of quad cores here is comparable to dual cores of computers right now or might even be single cores. And much more less on the GPU side.
[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
I said the same about upgrading from my HD2 about 3 years ago. There wasn't anything sufficiently BOOM for me to upgrade.

I had WM6.5 and 'Droid on the SD (while Android was still effectively in beta) and the new phones back then were a bit gimmicky compared.

Can't find the post but I said I wouldn't upgrade until 2GHz/2GB RAM/Quad Core/1080p and I didn't.

So, back to your question? Where next?

1TB storage? Nah. 64/128GB will be the new 16/32 more like. With micro SD.

5 working day battery - it'll be about real world longevity rather than tech specs, which will lead to a big row as people don't get 5 days gaming :rolleyes:

Where next? Frikkin' lasers! What else can be packed in?
[One (M7) General] colonel:
yes and no

most folk have PCs with an Intel 3000 or less for graphics.

you are right about size, which is why a display port and keyboard/mouse would be great
[One (M7) General] colonel:
thats the thing

I always say I don't need more and then someone comes up with something I never thought of and I can't live without LOL
[One (M7) General] mahay_love:
4K Screens, PS3 graphics and flexible screens. Unfortunately, not many companies focus on the battery life which is the sad reality.
[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
Battery tech is the NBT. Has to be.

Otherwise, if they add anything else in to devices, we'll have to be no more than 12 feet from a plug.
[One (M7) General] Shasarak:
I sincerely hope the race for bigger marketing numbers ends at 1080p displays: 1080p is already absolutely 100% pointless on a phone-sized screen. However, in other ways, screen performance has a long way to go: I want something that goes brighter than my HTC One (which still has legility issues in bright sunlight), has less reflection from the screen, has more resistance to damage and scratches, and combines an OLED-like black level with properly calibrated colour accuracy and white point, and no screen-burn. (And a way to calibrate the screen that doesn't require a custom kernel).

More performance is never a bad thing.

2GB of RAM is nowhere near enough, especially with 0.5GB being dedicated video memory. I'm looking forward to 4GB devices.

Mobile GPUs have quite a way to go, too, especially in terms of memory bandwidth: I'd like to see manufacturers experimenting with EDRAM.

Camera sensors could also be massively much better than the sensor on the One (although whether the market would accept that is another story: you'd probably have to make the phone significantly thicker). I'd like Xenon flashes to become more common, too.

Personally I'd like more onboard storage available at a lower price. Phones which have 16, 32 and 64GB models charge a ludicrous premium for the larger capacities.

The lack of USB 3.0 is a problem using OTG storage.

Headphone output, while quite respectable on phones like the One, could still be a lot better.

Probably the single biggest thing that needs improving is battery life. I'm lucky if I get four hours of real-life use out of my One if I'm browsing the web over 3G. Really you need at least twice that.

Dissipating heat will, I think, increasingly become a problem in the future. I can't see a smartphone ever incorporating an audible cooling fan.

HDMI output still has a few issues.

And finally the whole thing needs to become more rugged. Sony's Xperia Z is decidedly undesirable in many other ways, but the water-proof and dust-proof features are great (or at least they would be if they didn't require a compromise in terms of speaker quality).
[One (M7) General] colonel:
yes, thats pretty much the whole 9 yards

battery life is the main thing for me and it seems most other people

I am sceptical of camera. physics demands a bigger sensor and it ain't going to happen in the form factor.

most people don't need better quality, judging from alot of DSLR shots I see

a display projector, or holographic display would be nice. then I can show people photographs when I am visiting wihout any other equipment

I'm a little doubtful about putting a projector into a device that's hand-held and uses a touch-screen interface: the picture will wobble around like crazy every time you tap a button.

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ----------

There's one very important development that's needed on the software side, incidentally: at the moment mobile web-browsers still don't do a sufficiently good job of parsing desktop-oriented websites. There are a number of issues involved, but one of the more significant ones is that there's no accepted way to emulate moving the mouse cursor to a specific position without actually clicking on something. This means websites that depend on mouse-over events - things like menus that pop up when you move the cursor over a link - never work correctly.

One of the things I had hoped Samsung might do with the GS4 (but, as far as I know, didn't) is use their "air gesture" technology to achieve this: hold your finger close to the screen to move the cursor, and actually touch it to click. A device like the S-Pen could achieve the same thing if it's pressure sensitive: move while pressing lightly to move the cursor, press harder to click. There have been other attempts at this in the past: the original Blackberry Storm, for example, had a touch-screen that was effectively one large physical button, so it could tell whether you were gently tracing your finger over the screen or actually pressing. But I've yet to see a way of doing this that works nicely.
[One (M7) General] colonel:
actually that reminds me of another aweful thing about the iphone.

when you are editing online forms, e.g. an ebay advert, the iphone just goes mad.

firstly spelling suggestions go out of the window. it starts making odd suggestions about words you have never heard of.

secondly it does weird additions. so you are typing and it suddenly replaces the last three words with something totally out of context.

apple have improved this. It used to be impossible to even use on web forms, but it stil needs alot more work.

chrome and webkit (and IE on Windows Phone for that matter) are vastly superior in this aspect.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moustace:
Hi all, I've searched hard for this...

I just bought a D-Link Wireless N 150 USB adapter because I though it might help getting wifi reception on my Nexus 7 in my bedroom where it is currently poor.

I have a OTG adapter so I figured I could plug it in with that and off I go!

...The problem is installing the software.

The USB stick comes with a mini cd-rom with the software on it which makes it tricky to get it on to the Nexus.

So. I suppose my question is threefold:

1) Firstly, can this USB wireless thing work on my Nexus?

2) How can I make it work?

Wait, that's just two.

Help will be much appreciated and I will rampant with my thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pickoala:
Why should you use a external Wifi-USB-thing? I think the Nexus has Wifi, thats enough. Its like putting two keyboards on one pc...

What you need is a Wifi-Repeater.

And that little guy is available on Amazon.

So much fun with your Nexus.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moustace:
Hey hey! Thanks, yeah I just thought that it could be used to also boost the wifi signal, it just cuts out in my room. But I have also ordered a repeater :)

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Mikkel:
Sorry if this is a stupid question but, having looked at the web site briefly it seems to me that this will only work between two devices both equiped with the Cryptech software?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] wfberg:
This looks very similar to http://www.cryptophone.nl/

Except that cryptophone is open source, and the CasparTech product uses "proprietary encryption algorithms" - I wonder if these CasparTech guys wrote their application from scratch.

If you don't care about being able to see the source (i.e. if you don't care about backdoors -- remember Crypto A.G.?) you could also use skype, although that uses GPRS rather than a connection directly to another xda2 device with crypto software on in. Depending on the codec's bitrate and your GPRS plan, using GPRS/voip on skype may work out more/less expensive when you use it.

The fine people at http://www.cryptophone.nl/ also offer a windows version for your at-home/work PC or laptop to use with a landline for free, and the source code is right there on their website for all to see. Their product is NOT cheap, but knowing that it's secure should be worth it to those who have the need for it (e.g. big business, politicians, etc.)

(There is no pricing on that Caspartech page, so who knows what it costs..)

The http://www.cryptophone.nl/ people also founded xda-developers.com btw.

A PPC version of speakfreely (google for it, it's cool) would be a Nice Thing To Have.

Hello, I have a problem... Everything was working well, and I didn't notice when it happen. My pc do not see SDCARD, only usb charging. With TWRP I can mount sdcard and PC recognise without a problem. So I have a feeling that something wrong with settings, but I didn't know. Olso noticed that when I add new music to music folder (example from dropbox export to music folder), the htc player do not see new music only old (added one month ago), when in ES explorer I can see it and play using ES player or htc player. I use ViperOneS ROM 2.2. Buletproof 1.3 kernel.

I do not want to wipe everything and reflash all rom. I tryed reflash ViperOneS 2.2 ota update, but no luck. Any ideas whats wrong?
[HTC One S] real187:
Have you checked setting on the device when you connect with cable.

Is the usb storage activated?

I have to activate it before it shows.

How to do that? I tryed to search all settings... When I conect to PC on status bar I have to icons. One USB debuging mode and when I push on it I get to debuging mode settings, another is USB conected and when I schoose it I get settings to use WiFi on usb and so on. No settings like charging only or mount sdcard. Maybe is some settings in build.prop where I can manualy change settings to see my sdcard?

It would be great! I wonder: There are some ROMs on XDA for 2011 Xperias which are numbered 4.1.2. You probably know that the latest official firmware for those phones was 4.0.4. It isn't CM10. As far as I know it's 4.0.4 but with project butter and other stuff included. How did they do it? Maybe our devs could make it too? I know it would be hard to get 3D working on such rom, but a lot of people doesn't care about 3D, so maybe someone could try? :)

[General Accessories] michaelchen:
When I buy my ipad, and a ipad protective case, then comes the installation of the screen protector .The instructions that come with the package are not very helpful. Below are mine. Hope they help.

CLEAN the surface of your iPad. Use a microfiber cloth and even use a compressed air can if you want to be sure. Position yourself or a light so that you would be able to see ANY specs. Any leftover specs will raise the screen protector and will give you a bubble that you CANNOT remove. Keep the iPad's screen OFF so you have a better chance of seeing any specks.2) First remove the plastic envelope/pouch that directly contains the screen protector.3) Without removing and of the backing, place the screen protector with the hole over the iPad's circle button. Now you know exactly how much leeway you will have.Also make sure that the circle is popped out of the screen protector.4) Find something flexible and semi-rigid to push away the air bubbles. You WILL be getting air bubbles as you apply the screen protector. The trick will be to remove them as you apply the screen protector. With smaller screen protectors, I've used credit cards. But in this case, the screen is bigger. I've found that the plastic Staples cards you get in the mail (the ones that the size of postcards) are very helpful for this task. Your second choice may be a credit card or the very thin, plastic window of a cheap picture frame. Whatever you use, make sure it has a sizable straight edge and no sharp corners (You don't want to puncture the screen protector).6) Peel away a corner of the backing (The side labeled #1). Don't peel the whole backing off. You'll need to touch the backing in order to reposition the screen protector if necessary.7) Continue to peel the backing but keep it minimal. You want just enough so that you can position the hole over the circle button. If you don't get it the 1st time, remove from the iPad's surface as little as possible and try again. Be careful to avoid getting any dust on the iPad's screen at this time. This is why it's good to keep as much backing on as possible.8) After you have adequately centered the hole around the circle button, begin to slowly peel the Side 1 Backing while you use your flexible card to push away any air bubbles. Push the bubbles to the EDGE of the screen protector. If there are bubbles that are difficult to get rid of and if you're certain that's it just a bubble and not caused by specks, then you can gently remove as much backing as needed from the iPad's screen and try again. TAKE YOUR TIME.9) Hopefully you've managed to attach the screen protector with minimal bubbles. Continue to push away as many bubbles as possible.10) Now you need to peel of Side 2 Backing. But since the screen protector is already attached to your iPad screen, you will need to be VERY careful and slow. It's possible that the quick removal of Side 2 Backing can lift the screen protector off of the iPad screen and cause air bubbles. If there are air bubbles, use the flexible card to push away any air bubbles.That's it, you're done. Sit back and treat yourself to a new app.
