[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mattkane21:
Honestly, all that does is remind me how little iphones have changed over the past 6 years...

But back on topic, I had moved from an original Droid to the EVO 3D without a second thought. Leaving behind the physical keyboard was an easy choice when you have an actually good modern touch screen like the 3D did at the time, and that the S4 has now. I have no experience with the stock email app, but with the sheer number of keyboard apps available, you're bound to find something that will work. Not to mention the stock email app is much improved in the S4 over the Epic.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] maxpower7:
The OG Droid had such a terrible keyboard. Even on that phone, I still used the onscreen keyboard probably about 80% of the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TexasAggie97:
Well, I've been "practicing" my SWYPE and onscreen keyboard skills in anticipation for the big jump! Thanks for all the feedback. I feel a lot better, even though for people like me, it's a shame that sliders are going out of style....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GuestD0701:
I had an Epic, Evo, Evo lte, E4GT, Gnexus, Nexus S4G, Note2, GS2 & 3 and my GS4 runs Aosp better than all of the devices I've owned that aren't Nexus! Love this thing and have had no problems! Happy with my phone!!:thumbup:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nabbed:
There's an official Swype release in the Play Store now. It's something like $1.99. It's different from other, preinstalled versions and fixes a number of bugs (particularly the improper space use/not use in web addresses and web forms.)

Maybe the paid version also fixes your email problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Beezer80:
I had the epic and left for the galaxy nexus. Now I'm using the s4. You won't have any trouble. Go for it!

You'll love how small the phone feels in your hand without a keyboard.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TexasAggie97:
I sure hope so. I still find myself sliding out the keyboard to make corrections to a text or e-mail I typed using SWYPE....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TexasAggie97:
Dumb Question

BLACK or WHITE
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] rommen:
I went with white so I say white, but whichever you prefer the most.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TheGoodFellas:
I love the s4 in all aspects but thing that bothers me most with the phone is the home button. I've compared the home button on the s3 to the s4 and the quality just seems like it wasn't built sturdy enough compared to the s3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JoeFCaputo113:
Are you serious man? The home button build quality.... c'mon now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TexasAggie97:
This phone is awesome!!!!!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] maxpower7:
I'm just the opposite. I hate the design of the S3's home button and much prefer it on the S4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] TexasAggie97:
One thing I have found that will actually slow this phone down is attempting to delete more than one text message thread at a time. I tried to delete 15 threads and the messaging app froze then forced closed.

Anyone else experience this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] doggiedog:
I went from the Epic 4G to the S4 and haven't missed the 4G a bit. I thought losing the keyboard would be an issue but I don't mind at all. The onscreen keyboard on the 4G was a bit buggy for me and forced me to use the keyboard quite often. With the S4, I haven't had any issues at all with the onscreen keyboard (I mostly use Swype). I've had to use my 4G once in a while to get at old files and I can't believe I lived with it for 2.5 years. It is painfully slow and is really dated (obviously).
[Nexus 7 General] nextelbuddy:
So I was on 4.2.2 and only the franco Kernel nightly and that was it + ROOT.

i completely wiped the device, loaded 4.3, manually rooted SuperSU and thats where I am now.

Stock 4.3 ROM, Kernel...

The device Feels laggier than when I had 4.2.2 with Franco Kernel so I decided to run a quadrant test and it shows 3500 how sad.

When I had 4.2.2 and Franco Kernel my device felt so snappy and had scores at 5800+ with no changes to voltage, cpu speeds, gpu speeds etc.

Just curious if everyone else who is on stock 4.3 are you all having a similar experience with feel and quadrant scores?

yes I'm aware benchmarks are just numbers but the device feels choppy with loading, screen swipes and apps opening and closing so thats why I ran the test.
[Nexus 7 General] Richieboy67:
You are using a custom rom that probably want even made for 4.3. Try going back to stock and see how it feels. I've heard that is smooth. Don't know or care about benchmarks though.
[Nexus 7 General] AZA5:
he just said he is only stock rom and stock kernal and the device was completely wiped:confused:
[Nexus 7 General] AndyGnex:
Optimization is name of the game. The 4.2.2 franco kernel has been extensively tested and tested again to ensure better performance under similar conditions compared to stock..just wait until developers get working on 4.3, magic will happen.
[Nexus 7 General] nextelbuddy:
thanks for clearing that up. I'm very looking forward to 3rd party kernels

I know i am excited for when Franco updates his kernel, watching the developer forum like a hawk.
[Nexus 7 General] bluecarbon:
There is already at least one, someone mentioned two others as well, but faux has a 4.3 kernel.
[Nexus 7 General] drake90001:
Who cares what your score is? Either the tablet is smooth or it isn't. There shouldn't be any numbers involved to compare your nexus to any other nexus on the market.
[Nexus 7 General] player911:
I, too, have heard that 4.3 really brings the spark back in the original N7.

But yea obviously you aren't going to get as good of a score using stock kernel as you were with a Franco Kernel. At this point any custom 4.3 rom will be a little iffy. It was just released yesterday on AOSP so any custom roms couldn't have been thoroughly tested yet.
[Nexus 7 General] blackhand1001:
Franco kernel disables fsync by default which makes the io section of quadrant much higher. Some of that extra performance is real but a lot of it is fake.

I tried out 4.3 but am gonna wait for cm10.2 to make it my daily driver.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] GNEXUZ:
I want to get back to stock Sense 5 and unroot my device. I was on AOKP and tried using the RUU to restore my device. Unfortunately, I failed to realize I had updated my One to software version 1.31.xxx, and the RUU tool I was using was for 1.29.xxx. So now I have no OS on my phone. I can get to bootloader and TWRP recovery, but neither are really useful to me. At this point I'd be satisfied just flashing any ROM. Pushing via adb isn't working because it won't recognize my device. When I try to start sideload in TWRP I get the error "E: Unable to mount '/data'", so I can't load a ROM that way either...If someone could help me out, I'd be forever grateful.

EDIT: After formatting data I was able to sideload a ROM
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] USMC retired:
none

Did you relock the bootloader first?

Try plugging it into the computer and type ADB reboot recovery, that will take you into recovery. From there you should be able to lock it and run your RUU
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] GNEXUZ:
I was able to get a ROM on my phone. From what I can gather, you can't downgrade from 1.31 to 1.29 with RUU unless you have S-OFF. I guess I'll wait until someone makes a RUU tool for 1.31. What I don't understand though is that viperROM is based off the 1.29 firmware, but the RUU tool I used still says my phone is using 1.31 (thus, why it won't work).:confused:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] customhdrider:
Gnex,,if you s-off using Revone,you can run any RUU and get back to box stock

I already check that all links..
[Micromax A110] ashishk87:
Dude, first understand that the procedure to cook a ROM is same for all mobile brands having android (maybe except HTC)....what matters, is the processor and RAM of the phone....You can take any custom or stock ROM of the phone having same specs as a base and modify it to cook your ROM.....in short, mobile brand name doesn't matter....

1st link contains tutorial about using android kitchen and other tools to cook a ROM.....the heading clearly says "[UltimateGUIDE][How-to]Create your Own Custom ROM an easy way|Android Secrets -_-"

There is no brand name written, like samsung or sony even in the tutorial.....AND XR650 ROM is cooked by using this same guide.....you can check the thread 1st page to confirm....

sorry, i posted same link for 2nd & 3rd by mistake......that link contains LIST of various tutorials like flashing a rom, porting other roms (like PA, CM, SENSE, etc).....it also contains tutorials on compiling, decompiling, modifying APKs, boot animations, and LOT MORE.....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thinkbig12:
I don't have enough posts to post in the thread specific to this ROM.

Anyway, I just installed version 2.1 today and get the sleep of death every time the phone goes to sleep (both the timed sleep or me manually locking). The power button has no effect. Even holding it down does not do a force restart. I initially did a dirty flash thinking that was the problem. I did a clean flash and now am still getting the problem. Using the phone seems to be fine other than this issue... which isn't a small issue I can just overlook.

An incoming phone call is the only thing that I've seen wake it up.

Any ideas? Bad download?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
I've had the same issue. Also my 3G wouldn't work on that ROM and I had the JB modem installed. I just want back to ol' faithful, CM10.1 some people are having an awesome experience with that ROM but I wasn't.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thinkbig12:
I love CM ... However, it has one huge flaw. I can't use the MHL out. I need to be able to use that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blabbersoft:
Try to disable the ripple effect and see if that helps. Also check the md5 of the download to make sure it isn't a bad download; if you search the play store for md5 checker, it will make the process easier, but you could also use ES File explorer.

And, dang, this phone can get hot!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SKyRocKeting727:
I can't speak for anyone else...but I occasionally use my girl's Note 2 charger because it's longer (giggity) and so far I haven't noticed any damages. I'm assuming if it's a longer cord, it takes longer to transfer power from the outlet to the phone and that shouldn't hurt the phone. Then again...I could be wrong.

Yes this phone is Hot and it gets pretty hot. Heat + metal = not a good combo especially when in your hands or pocket.

When I backed up my Blue Angel ROM info using these commands I was able to create a bootable SD ROM card:

d2s 80000000 02000000“

d2s 60000000 00300000 sd a

d2s 70000000 01080000 sd a

I used the ntrw utility to backup the SD card to my disk:

ntrw read XDAIII.nb1 E:

I then formatted that same SD card as a test and used:

ntrw write XDAIII.nb1 E:

So far so good but now if I bot my BlueAngel using Power+Record+Soft reset there is no prompt to flash from SD.

Any ideas why, is there a trick to using the ntrw utility? I used a 512MB SDIO card, is that too big?

Not sure if this is the right forum... but...

After giving my Nexus 7 to my mother in-law (I know, what a great guy I am), I needed a replacement tablet. Heard about a sale at Staples. Price today for the KFHD 7" is $159 with $40 off coupon (taken automatically). During checkout, enter code 41178 for another $30 off. Out the door price: $129 plus tax, and has FREE shipping.

According to this article, the $30 coupon expires on July 27: http://www.technobuffalo.com/2013/07/25/amazon-kindle-fire-sale-staples/

Just bought one.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] CaffeineGiant:
I really don't know what's causing this but I've had a weird battery issue. For some reason it won't charge. I charged it and the battery only kept going down. I rebooted and the same thing happened. I flashed the rom again but this time it shows the charging status for a second and just stops the next :/ Is this a hardware issue? I was on DJL's Cm10 rom when it happened and I haven't tinkered with it or anything.

[One (M7) Accessories] mahdibassam:
hi guys.

I have been looking around and trying different cases, however i always end up looking at the official Double Dip htc Hard case, as it looks to be the best one .

Just wondering about the case, asking the people who have used it. I always use Xtremeguard/Invisibleshield wet application screen protectors on my htc One. i wanted to know if the case is compatible with screen protectors? because i have come to experience some cases making the protector peel off.

any responses will be appreciated.
[One (M7) Accessories] mahdibassam:
Thanks for the reply. But I didn't understand what you said :(
[One (M7) Accessories] ButtSwag:
Some screen protectors work, some don't.

From my experience, skinomi and just a generic matte screen protector did not work with the case, but I'm using a gadget shieldz now and it works :)
[One (M7) Accessories] wojtas29:
absolutely right

bought this cover 2 days ago, unfortunately top (red) part of cover - when applied will peel off screen cover

this because gap for front camera eye, actually bottom side of this hole.

screen protector - nothing special - something from phones4u for 8 pounds

any idea?
[One (M7) Accessories] ButtSwag:
I'd say get a "wet" screen protector as they can bend into shape. That's what mine has done, instead of peeling off because of the front camera it molded itself around it. Hope that makes sense
[One (M7) Accessories] wojtas29:
Hmm wet screen protector?

You mean apply drop of water on screen protector before ?
[One (M7) Accessories] ButtSwag:
Yeah the screen protectors that need to be wet or have the screen wet before being applied :P

They're also easier to apply because you can take them off again and re-apply. The only ones I know of are gadget shieldz or skinomi

[One (M7) Accessories] mito8485:
I just received mine that I ordered off ebay /Hong Kong as well. It's pretty nice. I've removed it a couple of times already to see if it scratches and no it hasn't. I just made sure before I first put it on to clean/scrape the inside of any excess plastic.
[One (M7) Accessories] ButtSwag:
I'd wait for about a day for it to settle and everything. Apply the screen protector before you sleep and then put the case on when you wake up.
[One (M7) Accessories] g4me0v3r:
Are wet application type screen protectors the only ones that are compatible with the Double Dip case?

I would feel more comfortable knowing that the screen is protected but I am not a fan of the grippy texture that Zagg usually has. But if it's the only one that works then beggars can't really be choosers.

Edit: Decided to go with the Zagg Invisible Shield. It actually isn't as bad as it used to be. I'm really satisfied with my purchase.
