Came back here to thank whoever that suggested S3 C Pen, but couldn't find it, perhaps from another thread.

My C Pen just arrived and this thing is amazing. The size, build quality, hefty weight, and the tiny tip is perfect for me.

The only thing is the price, pretty expensive compared to other stylus. But doesn't work with iPad?!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
I got the same C Pen and like it a lot as well. Glad that it works for you.

Not sure if I was the one but either way :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Vanquiz:
It must be you then, hehe, thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hansip87:
wow this one is the thing! One caveat though, you need to soak the wooden chop sticks so it will act lke a a conductive material. and shave one end like pencil and you're good to go! thanks a lot! in fact i write this message with my chopstick!

crochet hook

I tried to find a metal stylus in a chinese rubbish shop and for one euro i bought four crochet tools. the best mesure is three. They work perfectly...;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Benjiro:
How is the accuracy with this C-pen on the ZU?

Is there a difference compared to ... using a pencil or a chop-stick *lol*... I noticed that if writing small letters, with those, things like "W", or "O" seem to have a hard time getting correctly registered. What a times during some writing does gets a bit frustrating.

I know its not a digitizer like the Note3, but it does make me wonder if its the tools, or the screen?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Vanquiz:
I never use handwriting keyboard before, i just did to test out, and boy it is difficult. I guess sharp point stylus like the one in Galaxy Note or Jot, or sharp tool like pencil or fountain pen will work better for that purpose.

But for tapping around and swype keyboard it works very well.

[General Questions and Answers] jing000l:
format the sd card by a ram reader and computer
[General Questions and Answers] timpot07:
yup, try to format it first to your comp..
[General Questions and Answers] Karmaflute:
If your phone doesn't recognize it "sometimes" then it could indicate a problem with the reader hardware itself not making a connection. Or the card may be going bad.

The only way to be sure is to format it like other people say. But if you continue to have the same problem, try another sd card and see if you have the same problem.

I also have this problem on my Blue Angel. Its not the SD card, there is something wrong with the software or hardware on the Angel.

I'm grabbing one for my daughter today and she is going to want me to root, and flash a custom rom.

How stable is 4.2 and 4.3?

What roms/kernel combinations give the best battery life?

It's been a long time since I've used Odin "I think it was my galaxy s4g" since I've used it. The YouTube video under the how to post makes it look pretty easy.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wrippel82:
4.2 is pretty stable, although the trade off is shaky WiFi to 3g to 4g hand offs.. Its pretty much the same for 4.3 ROMs as well.. 4.2 is a little more polished compared to some of the small bugs that still are being worked out in 4.3 ... Both are 100% better then touchwiz IMHO. Hope that helps.

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

Just use the stock kernals that come packed in cm 4.2 or 4.3.. And battery like in 4.2 is on par if not better than stock touchwiz.. 4.3 has a bit to go in that category
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
What you're asking is a very subjective question. I'd say most of the roms are nice to run and it really matters what features you and your daughter are looking for. AOSP offers a pure Google experience, but you're missing out on some great features touchwiz has to offer. There are good things associated with both options that might weigh you to one side or another.

Basically, I think factors that affect battery life the most aren't rom and kernel related, but applications running on your phone. I find any custom kernel you run will operate more efficiently than a stock kernel. You may notice a slight increase in battery life, but you'll definitely notice a boost in performance.

I'd recommend not relying on what people tell you are good roms, because everyone is going to have a different experience as to which is the best, you're basically going to get a bunch of answers to the same question. Even though our phones are the same, minor hardware and cpu differences could make one rom spectacular on one phone, and cause lag and frustration on another. Trying out roms and playing with them is part of the experience of finding the perfect balance between battery life and performance for your phone.

Odin is extremely easy to use, just follow the directions exactly as stated and you shouldn't have any issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Tunderpimp:
I understand what you're saying I know with my phone Franco kernel only runs one core when the phone is a sleep and two with the ui and trinity is full performance. I wasn't sure if there was something like that here.

How stable stuff is really isn't a opinion.

Sent from my Nexus 4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You have a good premise, but stability is also linked to user error most of the time, unless you're talking about AOSP nightlies. If someone tells you they had a horrible experience on a certain rom, it's hard to take their word for it because you have no idea what other modifications they made to a rom, or if they followed flashing procedures correctly. It's not fair to the developer of a rom to have somebody who messed up their phone talk badly about it. It steers away a potential user from a rom choice and frustrates developers who put countless hours into their rom.

As far as your kernel question goes, I would look at the governor options available as that's what controls your cpu. You can gear any kernel to be more efficient or battery friendly with an app like set cpu. Ktoonsez and zues kernel have many governor choices available, as lean kernel would be much more stock like, but leaner. A governor such as pegasusq will control both your cores and only turn your second on if needed.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Cute Idiot:
Hi all,

You may be aware of recent news about 2 different security vulnerabilities that allow replacing code on a signed APK while maintaining the original signature.For more information visit:

http://bluebox.com/corporate-blog/bluebox-uncovers-android-master-key/ &

http://bluebox.com/corporate-blog/commentary-on-the-android-master-key-vulnerability-family/

Master Key (Bug 8219321) :-

An issue related with duplicate entries on the ZIP / APK files.

It was patched by Google back in February 2013 and shared with OEMs, and some of the newer devices might have already received the fix in a recent stock update.

Bug 9695860 :-

This also originates in the ZIP file parsing routines, and was disclosed just a few days ago immediately after the previous one was made public. The correction has already been applied by Google to the code.

Thanks to [MENTION=4719724]Adam77Root[/MENTION] and the CM team, i have created a patch to fix these two bugs. ;)

I can make a patch for your ROM too. Just provide me with the core.jar of your ROM located at /system/framework and i will try to patch it.

These bugs exist in android since android 1.6 aka Donut. The CM team has patched these bugs CM 10.1.2 onwards but i checked on ROMs built before 7th july are still vulnerable :( This is a big issue if you are installing apps other than Google Play Store. You can check if you are vulnerable by installing 3rd party apps:

-SRT App Scanner

-Bluebox Security Scanner

I request Devs to patch these bugs as soon as possible.

INSTALLATION :-

1. Download the MiniCM10_Master_Key_Fix.zip from the attachment

2. Reboot into CWM Recovery

3. Flash the zip

4. Wipe Dalvik cache

5. Reboot :D

SCREENSHOTS :-

Hello, i'm a new user of android and i'm having an issue with it... i have a IT900 from fusion5 and it only has 1gb of internal memory, i also use an app that downloads magazines from the internet and it uses a lot of space, so, i wanted to move all apps and app data do the local disk (4gb) or to the external sd (32gb).

I've rooted the tablet and found that with A2SD++ that is possible... the thing is, i don't know what clockworkmod version should i install... the tablet don't show in the ROM Manager list, and also i need to know that in case i want to do it manually...

Is there an easy way to do that without having to install ROM Manager / ClockWorkMod / A2SD++?

Befor i rooted the tablet i did manage to move the default instalation directory using the terminal:

./adb devices

./adb shell pm set-install-location 2

./adb shell pm get-install-location

but the app data is still being stored in the same place as before... HELPPPPP!!!

thx

[HTC One S] Ami007:
I'm guessing he updated to JB. This means he is using the new Sense 4+, which changes file transfer.

Previously in Sense 4/4.1 the file transfer was USB Mass Storage, akin to a USB flash drive.

Now in Sense 4+ MTP is used, which is slower, reduces compatibility, but I think you can still use the phone properly unlike with USB Mass Storage.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hagow:
Was just curious if anyone know if the camera in the Mega is the same as the one in the Note 2 or S3?

How does the quality compare? Can't really compare looking from the respective phone's screen as the Mega is same resolution with a much larger screen. Anyone compared them on a monitor?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
You can always use

GSMArena's compare tool

to check. It seems like the difference is quality is minimal. If anything, the Mega 6.3's photo quality is a bit better in my opinion. You can also check the

photography thread

were Mega users post photos taken with the Mega.

A photo I took using my Mega 6.3 (in 5MP mode only):
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hagow:
Wow, cool this is an awesome tool. Thank you!

Quality is very similar so I am happy. Just viewing on the screen although nice and big is not sharp enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] inurb:
I wasn't very happy with the camera quality of my mega. Up close macro shots were nice but that was it. Everything else had a white haze and noise. That was one of the reasons why I returned the phone. Going from a note 1 to a mega 6.3 the camera quality took a hit in my use.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Troute:
For a phone the results I get are very acceptable, in the right conditions i.e. plenty of light and with the right subject it takes very good pictures. To get noticably better you'd have to buy a Nokia or a proper camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hagow:
You can change the metering mode to Matrix to prevent over exposure of whites. I usually keep mine on matrix.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
It's not the best but is more than enough for casual photos. I just use 5MP pics for online use anyway, I use a dedicated camera if I need better photos. I'm interested in the leaked Sony lens attachment which should match the quality of point and shoot cameras. It should work with any Android phone so I can still use it if I change phones just like my Bluetooth headphones.

---------- Post added at 11:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 PM ----------

I do the same plus I always use the lowest possible ISO and set the exposure to -1. I avoid using automatic settings as it will not produce the best results.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] yees-no:
To be honest I feel the note 2 camera much better than mega 6.3 after using both of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
Are you talking about the camera interface or the camera quality? I only had the original Note so the only photo comparison I can get are from GSMArena which in my opinion isn't too bad compared to the Note 2 and the S3.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hagow:
I was feeling this way as well. The thing is you can't really get a good measure by looking at the photos taken on the respective phones due to the screen resolution is much lower on the Mega compared on the Note 2. I am not sure if this assumption is correct but I have been transferring photos back and forth between Mrs Note 2 and my Mega to compare. When viewed on the same phone they look similar. Hard to say though as I am also thinking Note 2's camera is better
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Hagow:
I have been comparing real life samples all morning. And came to the conclusion that the camera is the same. I transferred pics taken from the Mega to Note2 in full resolution and vice versa. The same pic looks much sharper on the Note 2 as compared to viewing it on the Mega (zoomed in). One other thing I observed was that the whites that once looked over exposed on The Mega (viewing on the Mega) is now gone when viewing on the Note 2. I think that the whites are much more vibrant on LCD vs SAMOLED screens.

These are my observations thus far...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
I agree on this. I looked at the comparison pics on my Mega, my laptop screen, and my Nexus 7.

Nexus 7 screen (IPS LCD) - the Mega photos look more black unlike the Note 2 and S3 which look brownish

Mega 6.3 screen (SC LCD) - the noise on the Mega photos look more prominent than that of the Note 2 and the S3

Laptop screen (TFT LED) - the Mega photos look the sharpest, Note 2 and S3 photos look a bit blurry

I guess it depends on the screen you are using. AMOLED is not known for color accuracy and it usually looks over saturated to please the eye.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] yees-no:
ofc not comparing from the phone only.

after I transfer them to pc can see the different with the images quality between mega 6.3 and note 2 .

I use the camera alot for instagram.
