[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tibibond:
hello! i m looking to buy a new phone for my mother, for her birthday and I decided to buy an xperia U or an galaxy ace2, but i m seriously considering xperia U for now! Should i go for galaxy ace2? i would like to know from you guys how is the phone on jellly bean? does it lag? is the battery any good? i will not hack the phone to install any rom or anything, because she will use it only for photos, calls, browsing, facebook and maybe viber calls when i m a broad!

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokey Mc Pot:
The Ace 2 is a great phone.

But it's all a matter of taste.

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rox:
if you are buying for mother definitely buy xperia U :)

Ace 2 is way better but for many other things but for her taste they will be same.

If you wanna buy ace 2 be sure it is white, not black.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifo171:
Well, how many storage does she need? Xperia U has around 4 GB of internal storage and it can't be expanded.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samer menla:
yeah xperia u has a pink cover but if she will use the phone for calls and photos and videos,the problem inn zperia u that it has sdcard slot

if she really captures photos and videos so much then go to ace 2
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kowal99:
You can buy much better xperia sola (price is same).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick_sixx:
Sorry for the noob question, but I can't seem to find an answer.

I have an HTC one (32gb version) that is quickly running out of space.

I have about 9gb of music on here, less than 100mb of photos, maybe 1gb of apps, and I only have 400mb free storage left!?

I recently rooted and installed the trickdroid Rom, but I performed a cache wipe and factory reset wipe through CWM I reinstalled it (had to do it about 3 times due to tweaks not working and forcing bootloop).

I've had a look in app caches etc, but can't find anything over 12kb.

I backed up using HTCs built in backup service, as well as performing a titanium backup.

Please help me find where my missing 19gb or so went!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IINexusII:
did you have 4.1.2 before installing trickdroid 4.2.2? if so then youll need to wipe the files inside data/media. from 4.2 onwards your files are stored in data/media/0

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 PM ----------

or go to CWM, mounts and storage, wipe data/ data/media. youll have to set the phone up again
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick_sixx:
Thank you! Managed to clean up over 13gb! Are there any other folders that I can get rid of?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcoQ:
Hi,

In the past few days I noticed that there's some background interference when I have headphones plugged in.

To make sure its not caused by badly shielded headphones I tried the stock ones that came with the phone, stock headphones of the One X and a pair of Shure SE215 IEMs, as well as my home hifi block.

All of them show the same thing: There's audible, and annoying, background noise when there's no music playing, and slightly less annoying noise in a low-volume part of a song.

Now before I send the phone in for repairs because of the (probably) faulty DAC I wanted to know whether this might be software thing (changing overall volume also changes the volume of the noise, turning beats on or off doesn't change anything) and if somebody else has/had this issue as well.

Regards,

Alex

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1MoreMinute:
Hello again everyone.

I have a question about the screen staying on after a missed phone call, missed texts and emails. Is there a way to not make the screen turn on when you get a text, email, or miss a call, just the led light is good enough for me? I have it set for 10 mins to stay on but don't want it to stay on if I miss a text, email ect if I am not by the phone, my old phone right before this one had a setting that I can shut off the wake feature (Pretty sure its called the wake phone feature)..

Hopefully I am making sense here! Thanks all, you guys are very helpful on here.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
It can be done, but youd have to modify one of the system apks I think.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: notifications

Have you tried using the Blocking Mode which is built into these Jelly Bean roms,

the blocking mode is under "settings" and it's easy to find.

It allows you to disable notifications and phone calls within the whitelist which you

can create and can set certain times of the day for disabling the notifications.

Give it a try!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Gromet:
Hey everyone. I know this has been beaten to death but I'm having hard time making a decision.

I have had an AT&T HTC One for the past week or so. I'm very happy with the phone and have had really no issues. I'm running 4.2.2 in it and am happy. Problem is I am seriously considering switching to the s4.

There are some features the s4 offers that I really like. (multi-view, flip to ignore, etc.)

I had One X switched to the s3 then to an iphone 5 but missed android so came back and got the HTC One. Like I said I like the one. The button layout doesn't bother me although I do like the physical home button on the S. The speakers are awesome and the screen is very nice.

I just don't know what to do. I still have time to swap it for an S before my 14 days expire but don't want to regret switching.

Opinions???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] viny2cool:
If you have 14 days to swap HTC one, then I am sure you will get some time for S4 too. I would say try both and keep the one you like. Ihas HTC one X, swapped it to get S3 and now using S4. Huge difference from S3 to S4 in screen itself. I played with HTC one too but IMO S4 has better screen. Also the so called gimmicky features are actually useful in S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] obriane217:
Well here's my take on the two devises. I had the One for about 12 days before returning it before the 14 day exchange and got myself the GS4. Let me start by saying the One is a great phone but it has some downfalls especially after using the S4 after the One. The S4 IMO is superior in every way but 1. The build quality on the One is better but even with that I do prefer that the back is easily replaceable because you can replace the battery and Micro SD card also replace the back cover itself if you scratch it up or damage it on the S4. So even with the 1 downfall that the One has over the S4 it is still arguably not a downfall for some. As far as features go the S4 hands down has the Crown on this. Yes some do call them gimmicky but I find them to be very useful. I do not use all of them but do use most. The beauty of this is try them all and simply turn off the ones you don't want to use. I find myself using more of the features the more I use the phone. For me the S4 without a doubt is the better phone. But that being said my opinion and preferences of a phone may be different than yours, so I would recommend to do what I did and what viny2cool mentioned before your 14 day exchange ends, return it and try out the S4 for yourself and then decide which phone is better for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] getbuzzin:
How about wait for the 5s. Problem solve.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] obriane217:
Wait, "WHAT"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robstunner:
They are so evenly matched its a very hard decision, one that you personally have to make. Ive been back and forth and own both. However, the biggest deciding factor FOR ME is the removable, swappable, faster charging battery, and the sharper camera in the day time. Im not a night owl, so I wont benefit from the Ultrapixel milarky. Usually when I take pictures its in middle of the day, outside and the s4 comes out much better in that scenario. I like HTC Zoe and the video highlights it automatically makes, but im sure someone will make something similar and sell it for 99 cents in the play store.

You just need to prioritize what YOU value most in your device, and then figure out which one doesnt match up as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mattdm:
I'm gonna go ahead and assume you meant to say "S5"...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] getbuzzin:
Trying to save OP a few $$ on restocking fees. He's going down the same road as last time, from One X to GS3 to IPhone 5. It's going to happen again so that's why I said just wait for the 5s.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] obriane217:
Yeah, thought your comment was pretty funny.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] getbuzzin:
Nope, I meant the IPhone 5s coming out later this year.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] stevehkim:
Don't forget now that we have the bootloader bypass by djrbliss the amount of roms to choose from are endless. So many dev's and so many roms to choose from, it's awesome! Played with the HTC One for about an hour. It's a great phone, I was just never a fan of Sense and HTC. So I was a little biased when I got my S4. I came from an atrix 4g, HTC Incredible, s2, note 2, s3, and now the s4. Definately the best phone I've ever had. All my previous devices I hated stock tw based roms. But just the s4 features alone along with xposed modules and 3minit framework it has rendered cm/aosp no longer needed for my needs. I would say try it out and if you don't like it then exchange it back. At least you won't having it stuck in your head whether or not you should have made the change or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mattdm:
Ok, but you said, "Problem solved." Yes, I suppose one problem would be solve...but on the other hand there would be a new problem: he would have an iPhone. And that's a huge problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] playbeasy:
I have a GS4 and I'm a big fan. That said I had a One for about 12 days before i returned it for the S4. The camera was my biggest gripe. If you're taking pics of something within a couple feet it's pretty good but forget about zooming. I use my camera on my phone a lot so I had to make the change. The one is a great device but I think I made the right choice in the long run.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Gromet:
Thanks everyone. I swapped it out for the S4 today.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bigant262:
I didn't want to make a new thread, so thought I could ask here. But does the GS4 have SVDO? I'm thinking about switching from Sprint to AT&T. How is the GS4 compared to the GS3? Only problem with the GS3 to me is the screen is too wide, is that an issue with the GS4? I haven't seen one in person yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dbdynsty25:
The screen is technically wider on the S4...the whole phone is essentially the same size as the S3 though, so if you have a problem with the width of the S3, the S4 isn't going to be for you.

I flashed bootloader relock to my phone and since then I am unable to come out of Fastboot.

I tried pressing the power button and volume up button till it vibrates one time and also three times but the phone does boot or on.

The green led lights keeps blinking and when I connect the phone to the system, it goes into fastboot.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] dbdynsty25:
In the same boat...I've actually got an S4 and a One right now, (the S4 goes to the wife at the end of the week) and I just can't decide if I like the S4 over the One. Both phones are fantastic, but the S4 has a few significant advantages to me that make me want to switch, but the One has other items that make me want to stay. I've got until Friday and it is just driving me nuts.

Here are my deciding factors, just in case they might help you out.

S4 Positives: a real customizable notification light, bigger screen (i also prefer OLED for the deeper blacks), side power button, camera outdoor performance, battery life is greater

One Positives: speakers (tho can be bad because even on the lowest level they are LOUD), camera speed and low light performance, build quality

So yeah...a few for each and I just have to decide which ones are most important to me.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Gromet:
I swapped out my One for an s4 today.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] dxwilliams40:
Any regrets? I did the same and ended up buying another htc one.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Gromet:
No regrets so far. Actually really liking the S4 so far. The stock keyboard seems much easier to type one compared to the one for me. Liking some of the features a lot, especially multi-view. Screen is nice. I got the 32 gig version and have a 64 gig SD card in as well so plenty of storage.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SlimJ87D:
Please read through the s4 vs Htc one threads in both forums.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nkgangew:
I spent 2 weeks going back and forth between the 2 phones and I'm a rep for AT&T, so I got to play with them both all day. I even had the One as my work phone for a week (not allowed to root work phone). I finally made my choice to make the HTC one my personal phone based on these reasons:

1) This is the main reason, I want my top of the line phone to be snappy and as fast as the specs say it should be. The S4 has horrible lag. Now when i say this, I'm the type of person that notices the small things. But I actually felt at times that the S4 got "stuck" on things (like switching from portrait to landscape) more so than my S3.

2) Media: Can't beat the speakers. And as for the camera, sure zooming in isnt as good as the S4 BUT the pictures are a lot less blurry on moving targets. I have kids and they move. What's the point in 13 MP if I can't see their faces? I hear the S4 is better to watch videos on screen wise. I didn't notice much difference. But having the speakers face me on the One was a plus.

3) The novelty on the S4 features, like eye scroll, wore off fast. Not only that, I had to turn then off to help the phone stop lagging. After a while, I honestly felt that all I was holding was an S3 with a better screen.

3.5) Sense 5 has a different keyboard and browser from the previous versions. Not only did it feel much different from my older HTCs, but for the first time I found myself using the STOCK keyboard and browser.

4) Screen Burn in. Just Google screen burn in on S4. And seeing all the super AMOLED screens have words burn in them from being on the AT&T display wall turned me off.

5) Development community: this sealed it for me. The hardware on the One is the same in the US as it is internationally. That means more development options. Also, there were a few trolls who owned S4s (especially on the AT&T side) who were really annoying and immature. The HTC One community, both US and International are awesome. Great people here.

Now I'm not bashing the S4, and if it seems like I'm nitpicking, that's because I am. Like I said, it took me 2 weeks of constant comparing to come to these conclusions. And at the end of it all, I felt like it was the HTC One, not the S4, that I couldn't bare the thought of not having.

Hope this helps buddy!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Daneshmand:
I have to completely agree with our ATT friend who is covered exactly the reasons why I switched to the One. Let me also add this to it.

I was an iPhone user since the iPhone 3G. I finally switched to Android with the One. Used it for about a week and loved it but saw all those S4 features and thought that's the phone. I jumped and switched and thought it is going to be great. After using the S4 for about two days I knew exactly why I didn't like Androids. It lags, the features are gimmicky and drain the battery. They don't work with all applications either.

Long story long, I switched back to HTC One and haven't had to modify or root this one because this phone is fast and responsive as it is. (I did root and install and subsequently uninstall bunch of mods)

Almost all benchmarks will tell you that S4 is faster, but unfortunstely the real world usage will reveal otherwise. I did feel that's the S4 was easier and lighter to hold.

I personally think that HTC One beats iPhone 5 (using mine as iPod now) but S4 doesn't hold a candle to either.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nkgangew:
You nailed it my friend. I almost succumbed to the gimmicks as well, only to find that they were the very things causing me to lean towards the One.
