[Galaxy S 4 General] Terrorantula:
Really? I think the GS4 feels better than the iPhone 5 or HTC One and tbh the One isn't even unibodied anyways, the speakers are glued on.

Personally I think from a design perspective having a removable cover is far better and just a bonus it feels better in the hand.

My 808 feels premium and amazing as well.
[Galaxy S 4 General] cyprusx:
AnandTech did proper testing and found that it takes 2.8. were did you find 1:45? thats much faster
[Galaxy S 4 General] cyprusx:
Yes if you look at the whole table, the GS4 scored for having the removable battery and being more ergonomic, You also get a more solid feel with Uni body however.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Jokesy:
AnandTech doesn't automatic qualify anything as standard test. Their result may differ from real life usage or another site's test. Just compare their battery test to GsmArena's and see what I'm talking about.

If I for instance, charge my device while it's powered off, then it's possible for it to charge faster than yours, etc
[Galaxy S 4 General] Terrorantula:
The GS4 feels solid though, like a phone couldn be more solid. If that back cover was part of the rest of the phone, I wouldn't notice the difference because it is so snug and sturdy already.
[Galaxy S 4 General] -]Megacharge[-:
You quoted the wrong person. :silly:

EDIT: Ah, you ninja fixed it. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Tom-Helge:
Total Tech War is wrong when it's about the recharge time.

If you do some easy math, you will see why. Because the standard wall charger that comes with the phone gives us 2A per hour. And since the Galaxy S IV have a 2600 mAh battery, then you can do the math on that.

They have either charged the phone via a USB-port on a computer or a laptop. Or they have only used a 5 pin microUSB plug (the new ones are 11 pins) via the wall charger witch makes the charging slower.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Tom-Helge:
My Galaxy S IV gets fully charged from around 4% to 100% in about 1 hour and 15 minutes (not exactly the time).

But again, that's the fast charge function.
[Galaxy S 4 General] barondebxl:
Say what??? That is impressive. I heard that the S4 charges really fast, but I didn't think it was that fast :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 General] yahyoh:
so what ?

my friend has the Octa version and it fully charge in less than 1:40

[Galaxy S 4 General] yonoshiro:
I agree..both my s4 and 808 feel amazing in hand
[Galaxy S 4 General] vampyren:
I have both iPhone5 and S4 and to behonest i prefer S4 quality, Aluminum is to overrated, it scratches even from the dust in the case. S4 feels rock solid so i hope Samsung dont change this.

On Battery with the new charger comming standard in the box i tested yesterday and both iphone and S4 charged from around 10% to 100% in about the same time, forgot to check the clock but it wasnt any major time difference, with S3 it took much longer but the new charger is 2A so much better.

Only downside i see with S4 or rather Android is gaming, iPhone have higher quality and smoother experience. I guess its the developers fault in the end but from user perspective thats my one and only complaint. The game that comes to mind is reign of dragons which i play on both phones and compare. Other than that i just love the S4, its a amazing master piece :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] Shocky2:
Galaxy S4 also charges in 2 hours, within two hours so long as the battery isn't empty.

Also OLED has near perfect viewing angles, how the reviewer rates LCD better there is just crazy, that's one of LCD's weaknesses.
[Galaxy S 4 General] frensel:
well, according to the website, htc one is 300% superior than the iphone 5.
[Galaxy S 4 General] cyprusx:
The HTC one display is LCD3 which is amazing, the amoled display is also very good but doesnt hold its colors as well as the HTC one at an angle.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Shocky2:
Even at extreme angles I can still see the details and colours on the Galaxy S4, I have the S4 in front of me and I can't see what your describing at all. :confused:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dimex:
Hi everyone,

I've done extensive searching on the interwebs and found a similar topic here on XDA with no answers.

Here's my problem: I have a Nexus 7 3G running Paranoid Android with Timurs Fixed Installation USB Audio kernel. I'm using this setup for a car install. I just received the Turtle Beach Micro II USB DAC yesterday. This DAC is a confirmed working DAC with the Nexus 7 and kernel. The sounde comes through, but only from the right channel. You can hear maybe 2% from the left. The DAC works fine with my computer and the Nexus 7 audio port outputs audio normally. This is making me crazy.

Someone heeeeelp, thanks :)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] metalbeatsplastic:
hope the decision was a good one.....have had it for a few days........used s4 for about an hour in the store, and HTC One in the store........

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
Went from a iPhone 4 to the One and I don't regret it a single bit. Only tying I miss is the huge selection of great iPhone themes there are. Android community definitely isn't even close to how the jailbreak theme in community does. But themeing is just so much easier on iOS than android. All images and you could toggle things on and off. Immensely different process on android. Functionality is worth it though. And the Ones UI is absolutely amazing already.

Wat, no.

You're too new to make broad general statements like that about a mod community you are barely familiar with. There are far more themes for Android, and the updates to things like Widget Locker, all of our launchers, UCCW, make it far superior to Winterboard or any of it's replacements.

I think you are still to familiar with iphone modding to make statements like that. Sorry to be so blunt.

Example:

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
I would agree that homescreen and lockscreens are definitely far superior by a long shot. I should have specified that I meant UI wise. I've already made my own concepts for homescreens in photoshop I plan on creating them through all the great homescreen and lockscreen applications that can bring it to life. Winterboard wins over in themeing UI and simple icons. I don't consider lockscreen and homescreen set ups themes. I'm talking about icon to icon, UI to UI. Which is definitely superior when it comes to Winterboard. This is why I talked about loving the HTC one UI so much because that's what I was really talking about. I definitely prefer my homescreen set ups on android though. Far more creativity.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tehdef:
They have full themes that you can download that reskisn the entire phone, including all the dialers, menus, buttons, fonts, icons, etc. It's not like it's not there, it's just people who make it and generally distribute it for free. Winterboard was just a commercialized repository that became the most successful. It's ease of use is what plagues iPhones as being generally simple and boring anyways. Plus, in my own experience with Winterboard, it was buggy as **** and slowed the phone down considerably when it was asked to do something it didn't like.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
All I've seen are color mods and such. Nothing major. If you could point me in the right direction that would be nice. And I don't see how Winterboard being easy to use is a "plague." That's why there are so many good themes for it. Also it's not a repository, just a MS add on. Repositories can host themes but Winterboard it's self is just the themeing engine. Also the slow down was only really there on old devices. Had no problems on my 4 and it's nearly 3 years old. And I've never experienced bugs besides there being a summerboard bug, but even in the app it says summerboard is the ancient way of themeing and is slow. Ever since iOS 4 I've never had an issue with Winterboard. It's easy to use and the fact that it's the only themeing engine and isn't fragmented, there are huge amounts of good themes. Of course the themeing never made up for the functionality that Android had which is why I wanted to switch.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] spitfire2425:
IPhone is crap! Android is the best and the one is awesome.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
I respect both platforms for what they are but I prefer Android. Though I would never use an iPhone if not jailbroken. Believe it or not its not that bad if jailbroken. I still prefer the ease of tweaking that iOS has by a long shot (no flashing roms or zips and you don't need an app icon for every single tweak you get off the playstore with has been really irritating). Also the fact that its 100% impossible to brick an iPhone no matter what you may have heard or think. I'd rather not fanboy over one side. I fell in love with the One since I ever laid my eyes on it. Honestly any phone before the One I wouldn't have ever even considered looking at besides an iPhone. Even the S4 I wouldn't have even looked at. The One is perfect in every single way I believe. Not a single complaint besides the overhangs I have on my device which I don't mind too much. I could complain about Android just as much as I could complain about iOS though. I'm finally glad I'm able to see both sides through first hand account so I know what I'm talking about. My opinions have changed about both platforms after getting the One but I still think they are both great platforms.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] John_A:
The real question i think is Samsung S4 or HTC One ...

I prefere Android Platform ...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
I'll never understand when people say flat out that iPhones suck. They don't. They may not be your cup of tea, but they are great products that cater to a specific group of people. I've owned the 4s (which I actually loved) and the 5 (not so much) in between various Androids. While there is no question that I prefer Android, iOS does have its merits. They are easy to use (for a layman/soccer mom), well built, and Apple has HANDS DOWN the best support in the industry. Lets not forget that iOS gaming is light years beyond Android. That said, I couldn't get rid of my iPhone 5 fast enough and it feels great to be back on Android. I am keeping my 5 as a back up phone though.

The HTC One is IMO the first Android device ever that can compete with and even best the iPhone in terms of build and design. There is nothing else like it on the market. The GS4 is nice but sorry, it's a piece of plastic. The One is elegant, sophisticated, and plain BAD ASS.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] xXxG0dzRAgexXx:
I'm glad not all android users are narrow minded. (: Very well said. All I ever see is android fan boys saying iPhone is the worst thing ever and apple fan boys saying android is the worst thing ever. Nice meeting people who are objective about the subject.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] omegis83:
Coming from the iPhone 3, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, and iPhone 5, the HTC One is the closest thing to the iPhone experience I've seen so far. I tried out the Galaxy s4 and within a week, took it back.

The iPhone experience is very well polished and catered to older people and less tech savvy people. The truth, however, is that I started to get bored with the iPhone. I've still got my iPhone 5 and I do hope that iOS 7 brings some new features to the iPhone to compete with Android, but I just don't see it happening. The HTC One is my first Android phone I've owned and so far it feels more like a jailbroken iPhone.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
I just like cool toys, no matter what logo is on them :) It really is awesome not being tied down to one specific brand or ecosystem. Liberating even. I'm that way with everything. Been an Android guy since it first came out, still owned iPhones. I have a Nexus 7 and an iPad Mini, haven't touched the N7 since getting the Mini. I was born with a Ford motor for a heart, but just bought a badass Dodge Challenger. Grew up with Windows computers only, but my MacBook Pro is my primary personal computer. I honestly feel bad for people who are too closed minded to see positives in products that they wouldn't normally buy. And every time somebody uses the term iSheep I roll my eyes- is it not more sheepish to jump on a blind iOS/Apple hating bandwagon than people using the iPhone because it fits their needs more than an Android? I think so! Oh well, their loss.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] johngreener:
htc one should compare with iPhone 5 .that is fair.:cool:
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] aSeniorWaffle:
Iphone is only good for women in my opinion specifically teenage women. They seem to criticize their phone for doing something "stupid" when it was their fault. Remember guys it's never the tech, it's always the user
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] furious0331:
I agree

I couldn't agree with you more. I have owned every iPhone since the original (except the 5) and just got my first Android last week. My new job requires me to test our mobile apps on all devices and I kept finding that I was pretty lost when it came to Android so I decided to get this phone and master the OS.

I've been going through some growing pains, no doubt. There were times I wanted to take it back just from sheer frustration. My jailbroken 4S was a thing of beauty, configured with all the apps needed to do EVERYTHING. Having to start from scratch and re-learn how to do things on a new platform is painful. But I'm not a quitter and I'm going to stick with my One. In all honesty, I'm liking it better and better every day.

But it's weird...I picked-up my 4S today after not having held it in days and it was...euphoric. :D I was like a crack-addict that had found some free blow after having quit cold-turkey. The 3.5-inch screen might be considered small, but it just feels so perfect in the hand.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
Agreed. My jailbroken iPhone 5 is just about perfect for me, but I like the larger screen size of the One and the word wrap in the browser.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] schn1tt3r:
I have 4S, the 5 sucks and One is prettier anyway so my Dec edition is on the way.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] angehorus:
Goog thing

In fact it's a good thing to change for the ONE :good:
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] grukko:
I'm still on the fence as to whether I should return the one and wait for the next iphone. I admit one of the reasons is because apple has pretty much ball-and-chained me with imessage. I refuse to pay at&t $20 for their one and only text plan so I'm on pay-per-use text now. Since most of my friends/family are on ios texting was pretty much free for the most part. Now I'm getting hit left and right with old school SMS each of which I need to pay for.

Also, for a few days after getting the one I could not receive any messages from friends that use imessage until I figured out how to deregister all my ios devices from apple.

The battery life on the one is also a bit disappointing compared to the 4s.

As for the screen, most of you prefer larger screens but like furious0331 mentioned, people who are used to iphones will find the larger android screens a bit difficult to adjust to. We're used to using our phones with one hand without having to awkwardly shift it in our palms to reach parts of the screen. Still have 10 more days to decided.

Sorry if I sound like I'm trolling. Just expressing my honest thoughts on the one coming from ios. Up until recently I always though android was an inferior mobile OS but that's obviously not the case anymore.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ihavoc:
As far a free texting you could use Google talk almost all my iPhone friends have a gmail account. also BlackBerry announced bbm for android and iOS today :p

I came from an iPhone 3gs to a used moto atrix2 (which was a 4" screen) then htc one x+ and now the one. I think the intermediate step of the 4" screen helped but I would never get a phone that is bigger than this one. The htc one is not much taller than the iPhone 5 and slightly wider, so it may not make much difference when you replace the 4s for a 5 or 5s.

I do not have large hands and find I can just reach the pull down menu with 1 hand. It does take some time and I feel with the change of only a 2 week trial for a phone it may not be long enough especially coming from another os.

Personally why I left Apple was the complete lack of control and iTunes is terrible. When I tried jail break it slowed down the phone to unusable.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Fallenhalo:
Quality!

Ha the store rep dose not know that the HTC ONE is a much better "Quality" phone

not to mention that some of the best XDA Developers also got themselves a HTC ONE
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] anekin007:
I also made the switch from a iPhone 4s to an HTC one. I been using a iPhone since first gen and this is my first android. I do miss some of the iPhone features and jailbreak tweaks but I got tired of the small screen. IPhone has better quality apps but the features I use the most the HTC one dominates the iPhone. My preference is bigger screen, better sound quality, smooth interface, and Google maps. HTC one fits those criterias. I'm also in love with the tv app. No more searching for my directv controller. There's some stuff I don't like about the HTC one but the positives out weigh the negatives. There's no perfect phone but the HTC one fits my life right now. Since HTC is trying to improve the company i hope they can keep up with the upcoming update.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] grukko:
Just wanted to add a tidbit of info. We have nice gauss meter at work and I used it to measure both the 4S and the one. I always though the 4S was pretty low at just a bit over 5mG when on a call but the one remains under 1mG the entire time. For those of you worried about getting brain cancer from your cell phone, well it's less of a concern with the one.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] spk99:
I'm moving from a iPhone 4S to ONE. To say iPhone's suck is pretty ridiculous, they are simple, intuitive and powerful. Can you dress them up and control every little thing, no. They are great for those that are not as tech savvy or don't want to fiddle with their device all the time. I was one of people. Id rather spend the time on my PC tweaks n whatnot. I preferred not to bother with this sort of thing on my phone. But after 4 yrs with 3S and 4S, I'm tired of the lack of customization and control. I think I've grown bored.

To me, Android vs iOS is similar to apple vs windows. Apple is like an automatic transmission, simple and easy but you give up power and control. Android is the standard transmission, more control and power. Sure you may stall out once in a while, but you learn something every time.

A few months back I got a Note 10.1 and had my first taste of Android. I knew my next phone would be Android based, and I'm glad I waited for the HTC ONE. It's great, but you have to make it work the way you want it to, apps, tasker etc. iPhone simply works smoothly out of the box, perfect integration, but the only way it works is Apple's way. Which is simple preference.

For me its Android for the foreseeable future. No fanboyism, I know fanboys who stubbornly ignore options, like another OS. They are the same people who argue windows is bad due to viruses and share some virus story. Not realizing it's 2013 and viruses are really only a problem if you're not tech savvy at all. I guess I'm saying being a fanboy either way is pretty silly. There's much more important issues to align yourself with other than a luxury device like a smartphone. I'm a geek through and through, but I also have perspective.

Hello everyone,

I dont know if there is anyone who can help me out, as I've seen quite a few posts about this subject already.. but none worked for me.

What happened: Last night when I set my alarm I got an update from Nokia and I accepted the install, when the phone rebooted it was spinning gyros and then the sad face.

What I've tried: Hard Reset(Volume Down + Power + Camera), Soft Reset(Volume Down + Power) - tried a few tricks where I had to connect the phone to my PC but I had no luck there as my phone does not seem to want to make contact with my pc.

I've made a small video where I demonstrated the resets and all. notice the weird line at ~0.12. Here an image. This is not just on the film it happens pretty often.
