Good News! thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] Stevemeister:
You really think that makes all the difference? The S600 and S800 are very much the same except for higher clocks thanks to 28nm HPm. If you have read my post better you would have noticed it named the Optimus G too. Besides that the HTC One which has the same chip is way smoother. I have the S4 and friends of mine have the One and Optimus G so I know what I'm talking about.
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
I think there's good chance the update might come soon in October

I mean, Samsung wants to sell those Galaxy gear watches they've been rambling about, no point if it only works on the note 3
[Galaxy S 4 General] 63or63:
so... i9505 with opengl 3.0 gave the best results in benchmarks ...

if android 4.3 opengl 3.0 also brings to i-9500, in theory the benchmarks will give even better results .. the only thing we would not be LTE ..

waiting 4 JB 4.3 :good:
[Galaxy S 4 General] chickentuna:
I agree or they could just screw us with a minor OTA update to make the gear compatible.
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
Nope, i think it needs a certain bluethooth feature that's only available in 4.3

I could be wrong though
[Galaxy S 4 General] hypergamer1231:
you are right gear needs bt 4.0le (low energy) which was added to android in 4.3
[Galaxy S 4 General] dandroid13:
The S800 has an Adreno 330 while the S600 has the 320. So there you have a more noticeable difference, better GPU = less lags.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Stevemeister:
Like I said the Optimus G and HTC One are way smoother. In the past Samsung had the smoothest phone with the S2 and S3 but now they need to step their game up and really make it faster and smoother with 4.3.
[Galaxy S 4 General] nedkarstark:

Not everything is bad come on

Your telling me you wouldn't love to have those dual front speakers and that unibody metal design on our S4's?

And HTC Sense I'm not gonna lie is actually quite a bit better than TouchJizz: Smoother, nicer looking (less cartoony) and more useful features (like Zoe) and less gimmicks

I hate where the gs4 speaker is at on the back sometimes makes it harder to hear when watching a movie. I'd take the speaker from the one any day.

[Galaxy S 4 General] BarryH_GEG:
Those with One's, I'd hold on to them. They are destined to become collectors items. HTC's stock just hit an all-time low based on an expected revenue decline of 45% in August. They are now projected to post a full-year loss for 2013. The One may be a great phone but no one's buying it.

I love TW. But I hate the way it looks. Sense is without question more refined and elegant looking but to make room for BlinkFeed and Zoe HTC took out a ton of personalization and customization features including widgets for e-mail and messaging. As for "gimmicks," to each their own. Here's what I use on an N2 lifted from a discussion in that forum on TW vs. AOSP. Not saying you or anyone else should or would use all the features in TW but don't assume nobody else does either.

It's a pretty long list and in no particular order. I'll be happy to explain how I use them if anyone’s interested but I won't defend why I use them because my needs may be different than someone else's and I’m pretty happy with my routine(s).

S Pen/S Note extremely heavily

Hand-writing recognition and Quick Command; the latter I use a lot.

Page Buddy

Pop up Note

Multiwindow

Voice Control for unlocking from the home screen in to specific apps

S Beam for sharing content with other Galaxy users

Smart Stay/Smart Rotation

Voice Control to manage the camera, music player, handle incoming calls, and alarms

Samsung Link to create a personal network to manage content on all my Samsung and non-Samsung devices via Wi-Fi and 3G

AirView/Hover

Samsung's excellent Exchange client

Samsung Music (cloud subscription)

AllShare Cast using Samsung's Dongle and my Samsung Smart TVs where it's in-built

SmartView to control my Samsung TVs and play content from my TV on my device (different than what's playing on the TV)

WatchON to find programming (broadcast, subscription, and pay), control my Samsung TVs, and play content from my TV (what's playing on the TV) on my device

S Voice, especially over BT

The persistent clipboard which is more of a scrapbook that allows me to capture stuff and use it across apps

Sketch Artist and My Scraps for managing, manipulating and altering content

All the Motion Controls

Lasso to capture, manipulate, and size content I find on the web or in other apps.
[Galaxy S 4 General] dandroid13:
Nah, I would never get a BB Z10 look-a-like. I prefer to have a sdcard slot and the option to remove the battery. Functionality over looks/useless gimmicks ever. If you want to hear something with nice good sound, why don't you buy any of these HDTVs out there anyway? With my phone I use headphones 90% of the time. :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] Headless96:
Haha fair enough but the speakers would be good in scenarios where you had to show someone a video in a crowded enviroment or something. I mean with my old phone the HTC One X in a room with no noise and with the phone at the highest volume it was unable to produce even an acceptable sound volume

And tbh the S4 is the king of gimmicks (Air view, Smart scroll, etc. Who actually uses this sh*t?). I mean I do sort of like the S4 but it just doesn't have the same wow factor as the One especially when considering it as a worthy successor to the S3

And yeah your point of the sd card and removable battery is a big one for most people and most likely the main reasons why people chose the S4. The thing is though, the 32gb HTC One is actually cheaper than the 16gb S4 (which is what most people have). Now yeah you could say 'Just put a 32/64gb card in and your sorted' but when it comes to downloading game data (which is practically the only reason the storage is filled up so quickly) it can't be downloaded to SD card and using folder mount is cubersome and especially annoying when changing roms and incompatibility and stuff. The internal storage is faster in read/write as well and so is actually better when copying stuff over

Not arguing with you or anything, just debating :p

By the way if anyone's wondering why didn't I just get the One then. It's because I got a sweet deal for the S4 (i9505), swapped my poor condition One X and £100 ($156) for a brand new S4 :) If I could choose though, I would've picked the One
[Galaxy S 4 General] dandroid13:
I did buy the S4 because of all the tricks it has. Last year I had a Galaxy Nexus and after 6 months I was back to TW... The gimmicks are the best part of owning a non-Nexus flagship device. What I don't understand is why so many people praise HTC so much! Their devices have nothing special nor that "wow factor" that Touchwiz tricks or Xperia toughness have. I'm not a gamer so I can't say nothing about space, but I have 300+ apps installed here and still have 4GB of space left. The new Note 3 dropped the 16GB spec so they are listening to the users... ;)

Back into 4.3, it made my GNex feels faster again, I hope to see the same with the S4, I've read somewhere that Samsung now aims perfecting their exclusive features instead of adding new ones, so I wonder what that means, maybe adding more ways of using all the gimmicks? Don't forget about the Gear too! :)
[Desire HD Accessories] ADB100:
I am running an unofficial CM 10.1 ROM on my DHD and with 'slight' use I can probably get a full day out of the battery. Prior to the CM 10.1 ROM I was running a custom rooted ROM based on the final official android 2.3 ROM from HTC and I remember the battery lasting much longer (over 12-months ago). I won't be moving back to Gingerbread but want to improve my battery life and have seen good reports of the PolarCell batteries

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390392597069?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Has anyone replaced their stock battery with one of these? Any comments?

Andy
[Desire HD Accessories] bert682:
Would be interested in knowing this also. Dont suppose you took the plunge and bought one?
[Desire HD Accessories] MacPryden:
Hi guys

I would be interested too on this question, or another battery brand.

Only want that someone with experience tell us if possible which battery and what brand/model is the best nowadays to buy to our great Desire HD?

And if you can post the link where to buy and maybe some buyer reviews, would be wonderfully.

Because are too many "Fake" vendors nowadays.

But for some questions that I asked to other few members and one recognized developer, they said that one of best batteries are:

First - Oem

Second - Mugen

Third - Anker

....

That PolarCell I never heard do not know =S

Cheers
[Desire HD Accessories] Radgas:
I guess dhd battery is a pain in the a** for everybody, I suggest you to go for sensation xe, evo 3d type batteries. There are plenty of ways to do it (with battery door or without) I was personally using without battery door because I was already using silicon cover for all phone. Btw you need to apply a small copper wire for external wireless antenna which is already built-in with your original battery door. Search for thread in this section you will find Evo3d battery thread. I have changed to HOX but still my wife is using my beloved DHD with 1950mah Mugen. Believe me it gives equal amount of satisfaction for this money. If you don't want to spend that amount, go for original Amaze 4g battery (which has the highest capacity when compare with evo 3d if I don't remember wrong) still you will be satisfied with battery life.

Please don't ask me, which rom am I using or how is battery life. It depends on people and how they are using.

I can give several examples, heavy usage with all the time 3g, bluetooth, mail sync, whatsapp, viber, browsing, auto brightness but no games and no wireless: it will handle 1.5 day.

or

Moderate usage, all the time mobile network on, a bit whatsapp, several regular calls, a bit browsing, no gaming and wireless off. My wife can easily manage for 2.5 days.

One more thing, if you will have 1950 mugen, your battery will stuck at %15, don't panic it will stay there for at least several hours (according to your usage ofc). Its some kind of a bug. I don't know if somebody found a solution.

I hope, my reply will enlighten you a bit :D Cheers!
[Desire HD Accessories] srgperez:
Been using a Polarcell since october 2012 from the manufacturer CellePhone: (http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B004I227RK)

New, it lasts the same as the original for me, that means about 3 hours of screen on with about the 70% of the total battery time, automatic brightness but mainly outdoors, so I bet that the auto brightness is actually full brightness the most part of the time, using 3G and no "data sync demanding apps running in background" except whatsapp and the usual google services.

I use to charge the battery every night while I sleep and even though I'm aware that overcharging a long time is harmful I use to let it charge until I wake the next morning.

With this usage schema, I'm facing today a 20% loss approximately, because the battery skips from 80% to 100% when charging.

So is more than a year of usage, around 400 charge cycles, and for 10€ is a good investment for me.

Being from a german company inspires more confidence than chinese clones.

Hope this helps to all of you folks!

[Desire HD Accessories] smokieruff:
Bought one a few days ago from http://www.ebay.de/usr/wannsee-electronic (Germany).

The one i bought is for HTC Sensation, sold as 1800 mAh. To fit in DHD i remove the "film" and im surprising to see that on the aluminiumcase of the accu is written 1700 mAh.

Contact the merchant today and wait for an answer. So I didn't know it depends on Polarcell or the reseller...
[Desire HD Accessories] nodeffect:
I just got one myself for Desire S, it is a 1600mAh battery. Been using it for 3 days and I'm quite satisfied with this product.. I also bought one Anker battery for Desire HD....

I can't really compare those cuz its on a different device and different ROM. But I feel that both are doing fine for now..... You can give it a try.

Btw, Anker battery comes with full package, it comes with a box and manual.... The polarcell that I received just comes with a battery with no box, nothing else..

Maybe I would suggest you to get Anker.

I'm very satisfy from this battery.After couple charges for 12 hours each now my battery seems very stable. I'm running 30 hours and more with enabled 3g all the time.30-40 minutes calls including viber and 2 hours and a half display on.I think that this is a very gods result for this product.....cost 13€ :).

I can easily fix this once I get home but I am currently at work without the means to do so

All I want to do is power down my phone so it doesn't waste all the batts but everytime I turn it off it boots up again automatically

Does anyone have any idea how I can solve this (a dumb problem which I created myself)

[Windows Phone 8 General] buffalosolja42:
I went to twitter to contact the kindle department [MENTION=234523]Amazon[/MENTION]kindle to ask them why they don't supportin Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 as they do Android and Apple. What I mean is the cloud service for the items you upload which is a great feature and I didn't really think anything of it until my asus transformer died. I leaned to try and use my Lumia to no avail as well as my Windows 8 laptop. Then I proceeded to try it on my wife's iphone and it worked....... I know this may sound petty just reaching out to see if anyone else has this issue or knows of a WORKAROUND. I want to thank you for your time and feel free to contact Amazon as well!
[Windows Phone 8 General] Localhorst86:
I contaced Amazon support with basicaly the same question a few days ago, sitll haven't received an answer. My Question was regarding the fact that amazon allows purchases of Comics for the android and ios Apps of Kindle, but not Windows 8 Or Windows Phone 8.
[Windows Phone 8 General] buffalosolja42:
I know with my T101 biting dust I cannot read my tech books now :( would hope that we as a community could come together on these issues.
[Windows Phone 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
In WP7, the solution was to use a file browser to sideload the content directly, which (mildly surprisingly) worked flawlessly; the Application Data folder was laid out very much like the root folder of an actual Kindle device.

In WP8, we don't currently have any file browser with enough permissions to write into (or even read from, actually) the relevant folder. The isolated storage explorer tools would work if the app were sideloaded, but that's blocked for retail (store) apps.

The only work-around I can recommend right now is to use a different e-reader app. There are lots of them on the store, most are free, some can even read Amazon's formats (use Calibre to convert the files otherwise) and they all support synching from some "cloud" provider (usually DropBox).
[Windows Phone 8 General] buffalosolja42:
Understandable

I use dropbox and specifically uploaded them to Amazon truthfully to use one reader, and it would be sync'd across all my devices I thought. My Transformer just magically started working but I would still like this ability. I like calibre but with Kindle if you use your email address and have a pdf and put convert in subject it will change it for you. Less work on my local machine so to say. I just don't know why they would leave this out to users. I wonder does the BB have the cloud option if so this is really messed up.

Re: Many Thanks

Did you follow this exactly..?

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade

I recommend doing a hard-reset then following the instruction here.. Let me know how you get on..

Finally, remember that running this will default your device to UK Spec T-Mobile settings for MMS, etc.. But, I'm sure there's always a .CAB file you can search for on here that can be added or that someone can send to you!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] lobezno:
Yes, I did.

I have tried with BaUpgradeUt and with MaUpgradeUt_noID. Both times, i got the COUNTRY ID ERROR, and the deviced hanged on the bootloader, so I did a hard reset and tried again.

BTW, i prefer to manually change the settings from T-Mobile, that having a device on a language that I hardly understand.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] MrPhilly:
When you got the Country ID Error with the MaUpgradeUt, did you exit the update then click again on the MaUpgradeUt to re-start the Update.. If my memory serves me correctly, it should work the second time..

Let me know what happens..

As is, I believe, expected.. It does look like you lose the active Sync. This doesn't mean the Upgrade Process has run into problems..

Did you re-click on the MaUpgradeUt (as stated in Wiki)..?

I have to say, I really think you need to understand everything in Wiki before you attempt upgrading.. (Link in Signature)
