[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoneChin:
As explained in the title, my Xperia Arc either pauses or restarts every 30 seconds or so while playing games, especially high memory games like Clash of Clans, Zenonia and etc. Not particularly a tech savvy guy so I might need professional step-by-step guidance on what to do here.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Have you overclocked your phone?

What ROM/kernel are you using?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoneChin:
No, I haven't overclocked my phone. Currently not using any custom rom but basic ICS version 4.0.4. Kernel version shows 2.6.32.9-perf on phone. By the way this problem happens only when i play games, other applications like Facebook works just fine.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destroyedbeauty:
Stock ICS for Xperia 2011 isn't optimized for heavy use (small amount of RAM) and got outdated Adreno drivers. Custom ROMs / AOSP / CM + custom kernel will take care of this by using various performance specific tweaks.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
If most of you here don't know, ICS is not recommended for gaming. Switch to a GB or JB ROM if you want to use your phone for gaming.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoneChin:
I see... Actually I once used custom ROM before but games are still kinda laggy. Is it recommended that I downgrade my Android version to GB?

EDIT:

Thanks for the advice, I shall try it out. If problem persists, welp, it's time to buy a new phone.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pren22:
There is a great ROM i'm using it's called gin2jellybean it has jb look but it's gb rom it's very fast and it's great with games.try it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] corybucher:
Just a little curious as to where all the developers are? Not complaining at all and I haven't even rooted my phone but just wondering if this device is going anywhere in terms of custom roms. I know it still very early but would love to see some miui on this beast
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] d12unk13astard:
Just like you said, give devs time to acquire this device. Just because you got it the first week its out doesnt mean a bunch of devs can do the same.

This is why I wait before purchasing a phone for a couple months. Besides the note 2 is still a beast of a phone with plenty of roms to choose from.

Sent from my note 2 ya bish!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] MikeyLee:
Note II development fizzled out a while ago but the Note 3 has only been out for a week so these guys need time to figure things out. I still love my Note II and I'm keeping it when I get my Note 3 (unless anyone wants to buy it for $300 bucks lol)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] corybucher:
Cool, appreciate the feedback guys. Now I'll sit here quietly and twiddle my thumbs waiting for the explosion of roms to come
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nolimit06:
Still been fairly quiet... I'm wondering if a lot of the Sprint devs jumped ship to other carriers...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
I'm willing to bet this phone gets plenty of roms/ect. Just some new things to learn about and problems to solve still.also waiting on more devs to get one. I bet by the end of the year it'll have a thriving development section. Also most of the stuff written for other note 3's should be fairly easy to port over.that and the fact that some of the devs are working on the htc one at the same time.

[General Accessories] bkong:
I have been having trouble recently with my galaxy s3 charging extremely slowly. Every since the OEM cable broke, I have tried to find replacements that charge at 1amp. The only cable that does this is the monoprice premium micro usb cable 6ft, but it breaks quite easily. I have also tried the 28awg 6ft monoprice cables, which were pathetic and charged at 100ma. This was all plugged into the OEM 1a wall charger fyi.

I have heard that the 24awg cables with ferrite core charges at a full 1 amp because the cables are thicker, but what I don't understand is that the OEM and premium monoprice cables both charge at 1100mah but are really thin compared to even the 28awg cable. The OEM and monoprice cables don't have specifications printed on them. I had always thought that generic usb cables were the same as OEM cables, and would charge at the same speed, unless there's something wrong with my micro usb port or phone.

I have tried looking for solutions but the answers on most forums are people asking why their phone charges slow when it is plugged into a usb port, and everyone just replies that the usb port output is limited to 500mah, but I am using the oem ac adapter and it's still slow. Only the premium monoprice cable charges full speed but its very poor in quality, the rubber cable separates from the plastic micro usb head, and it breaks. I have had 3 of these premium cables break in less than a weak and only 1 of them works, for now.

Is it my phone's micro usb port? I tried charging it using CM10.1 as well as Touchwiz 4.1.2, but they all charge slowly from the generic cables so it can't be the rom. I don't remember having any of these problems when I first bought the phone on ICS, and I don't see many posts on slow charging.

Is there a cheap, reliable cable that charges at a full 1 amp out there? Most people I've seen had suggested monoprice cables but their 6 foot micro usb cables have changed recently and are really, really bad. I guess the ferrite core cable might work, but I have yet to try it, and I am not fond of the idea of a thick 24awg cable and a big ferrite core sticking out of my phone.
[General Accessories] vectron:
First of all, do you have Galaxy Charging current app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free - I think it's free for N2 and S4, but you have to pay $0.99 for S3 (I use it for free on my N2, but a buddy of mine had to pay to use it on his S3). That app will give you an idea of what's going on. You can also check out Charging Doctor I reviewed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2451375

Second, charging speed is a combination of both a charger and a cable. The only way to guarantee full 1A/2A output without high resistance which contributes to a drop of charging speed is to use thick wired cables like 24AWG as you correctly pointed out. But with wall chargers - just because they state 1A you will NOT actually get 1A due to efficiency losses. You know how your charger gets warm? That due to AC/DC conversion inefficiency which results in drop of speed and release of energy in a form of a heat. I personally don't trust labels on cheap chargers and also over the time even an efficiency of a trusted converter will go down. I have reviewed a lot of Anker batteries and chargers (check out review link in my signature), and those are the one I highly recommend.

What I would recommend getting one of these trusted 2A chargers and use 24AWG cable and check it with Charging Current app. If you are still seeing a very slow charging speed it means your micro usb connector is wearing off or loosing a contact with a main printed wiring board (pwb) inside of the phone.

So I've already had two notifications that Lookout has done it's "weekly" scan today alone...

Is there someway to disable at least the notifications? If I go into the App itself all I can do there is activate lookout? (If it's not activated then what the heck are the scans it's doing?)

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] aooga:
Tap and hold on the notification and tap on "App Info". Then uncheck the "Show Notifications" checkbox. You could also click "Turn Off" to disable the app completely.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mneimeyer:
I didn't even think of that... I'm used to running custom ROMs where I just don't install stuff I don't need.

I'm running stock for a while to see what I "need" in a custom ROM (especially with regards to the S-Pen stuff) and to let stuff shake out on new device. So far my only real annoyance has been that the Samsung Contact App is auto linking contacts simply because they share enough info in common and I can't figure out how to disable that (without manually doing it when and if I find a contact that is linked).

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] aooga:
Yeah, I think stock on this phone is fine. On the S4 it was kind of necessary to put a custom rom because the phone was so laggy, but the 800 on this phone just flies through everything.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanpeter:
I found a deal that would get me a Galaxy S3 or an Xperia ZL at the same price, the S3 is new, and the Xperia ZL is a used one. I've been having many problems with my Galaxy Nexus lately and am looking for a suitable replacement.

Which one is a better option?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanpeter:
Yeah, that I know. But I'll be getting the international version if I get the S3.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hanzo.Hasashi:
Thats a tough decision. I have stopped trusting Sony in matters of support since they messed up with their update policy regarding the 2010-2011 phones. If i had to choose now between the two brands i would definitely go for Samsung (which i did :p)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonathanpeter:
I honestly don't mind not getting official updates as long as there are smooth CM builds of the latest version. So yeah.. And the only reason I don't like Samsung is their design and popularity.

Btw, how does the Battery on these 2 phones compare?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
Why not not wait for the nexus 5 or pick up a cheap nexus 4. Or flash the factory images on your galaxy nexus and see if that fixes your issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathanpeter:
They're not problems a rom can fix, the charging port doesn't work anymore, the power button doesn't work, and the screen is cracked. So..

Edit: And I don't want the Nexus 4 because of its lack of support for usb otg.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
Taking newer phones out of consideration, I'll choose ZL hands-down - feels nicer in hand, has better hardware, uses onscreen nav keys (a huge perk for me), has much better support from both Sony and community (Samsung terminates their phones early, and keeps some codes secret / lock bootloader so that custom ROMs always hit obstacle). Fsck Samsung for all its phones except Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus.

But yeah, as said above, treasure your Nexus :) I treasure those Nexii so much that I bought a screen-cracked GNex just days ago (here in China we can replace only the screen glass instead of the glass+display, and costs merely ~$25)... Flash it to a clean state and see what magic happens. Sorry I saw what you said, good luck with a new companion. Not the Samsung Galaxy S4 "Life Companion" :thumbdown:.

Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM10.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathanpeter:
Yeah, I'll be keeping this guy even when I get a new phone. I personally like the ZL better, but looking at the dev support and comparing it to the S3, it's really not great, and that's what breaks it for me. As for the S3, I like everything about it, except for the Design. -_-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
...at least ZL has official CM10.2 too (and will likely stay on the official line as long as its cousin Xperia Z is alive), so shouldn't look all that bad unless you're really flashing all day. CM is always just enough for me while PA/Carbon/Slim are a pain to set up to eye-candy condition.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathanpeter:
Thanks guys. Now it's between the Note 2 and One X plus. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
That's a much harder choice, but I'd still ditch Exynos 44xx (both S3 and Note 2 has this CPU) because it's very developer-unfriendly. One X+ on the other hand provides lower performance (Tegra 3 sucks), but if this device you buy doesn't have to last long, should be okay.

Sent from Samsung Captivate Glide @ CM10.1.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wtr_dhd:
That's right. But truth is, developers on XDA are not the giving up type. I've a Note 2 with SlimBean (android 4.3.1) running perfectly smooth with zero bugs since I used their first builds. 6+ hours screentime, 21k in antutu without any overclocking, no glitches, all working (1080p HD filming, camera, BT, tethering, wifi, etc etc.)

Go for the Note 2. Best device I ever had and the development community is very vivid with ****loads of well maintained roms, including official cm 10.2 nightlies. There's also the samsung official touchwiz android 4.3 leak available, so seems this device isn't written off yet by Samsung, and I suppose this can only benefit the dev community even more.

[Sony Xperia ZL] abdullah9252:
If ZL is in good condition then you can go for Xperia ZL becoz you will get latest tech spec compare S3, and S3 is now year old device..........:)
[Sony Xperia ZL] Ravensysteam:
However, Galaxy S3 has an SAMOLED screen (far better blacks and far batter viewing angles), replacable battery and a way bigger developer community. It depends what you expect from your phone.

I had to face the same decision and decided to get the Xperia ZL for the Full HD resolution and hopefully better lifetime of my screen (SAMOLED screens tend to get worse over the course of years).

Greetings
[Sony Xperia ZL] jonathanpeter:
Yeah, coming from a Galaxy Nexus, I was searching for a phone with a great dev support. I like everything about the S3 except the design. And I like the ZL because of it's newer innards and FullHD screen, but I've heard that it's really washed out, color wise..
[Sony Xperia ZL] abdullah9252:
yeah the display appears washed-out when you don't look directly into the screen but in real life it does't matter much at least for me now its depend you...... i had same problem choosing between this phones but i wanted latest spec so that i can have good gaming experience as well as watching video on 5" Full HD screen its too Good, you can compare both phone online that may help you.....
[Sony Xperia ZL] unmaskedfalesh:
Get ZL if its in good condition.

Its better than s3.

But just make sure ZL is not opened and repaired...before
[Sony Xperia ZL] danieldp1990:
Well actually i came from S3, i love the viewing angles, and battery replace. but i decided to buy the ZL and let me tell you. ZL its like 1000 times better than S3 in terms of support, hardware, and even quality and design, viewing angles i dont really care, its not that bad at all. the truth is that the screen it the best screen i have seen on a phone, really 441 pixel per inch and a 5'? wow in a compact design even much smaller than S3.

In other words, go for the ZL if the phone is in excelent condition and never had been opened.:good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] jonathanpeter:
Yeah, I went to a nearby shop and got a hands on of the ZL, really nice phone.

What's the battery like? Screen on with 3g?
[Sony Xperia ZL] ren2008:
With 3G I'd say 3-4 hours but WiFi I get around 5 hours max.

Screen pixels are awesome but energivore. You'll get used to it tho.

The Sony UI is also a huge bonus over vanilla Android UI. At first I was annoyed by it but now I feel like I'm really using my Android phone for real.
[Sony Xperia ZL] MarcSinger:
I'd go for the ZL. It feels much better than the S3, and looks much better, too. On top of that, you get a better processor (Snapdragon S4 vs Exynos 4412), a better graphics chip (Adreno 320 vs Mali 400), and twice the amount of RAM (1 GB vs 2 GB). On top of that, you get a full HD screen. There have been complaints about the viewing angles, but I'd say the viewing angles are not as bad as they are made out to be. Viewed top-down, though, the display is really, really good. For some reason--and I've observed this on a couple of units--the ZL's display is better than the Z's (I've actually got to evaluate both side by side with a Z).

So, if the ZL's in pristine condition, I'd say you go for it. Otherwise, if it's been "damaged" to some extent--you know, scratches and stuff--opt for the S3. Because personally, I wouldn't go for a damaged phone, no matter how good it might be specs-wise, and neither would I advise anybody to. That said, if you're going to be using your device heavily, and there's the need to carry around a spare battery, then it's obvious the S3's the best bet for you. So, weigh up your options, see what you need. If you're going to be carrying around a spare battery for backup, you're good with the S3. Otherwise, I'd definitely pick the ZL over the S3.
[Sony Xperia ZL] skrilex:
S3 is good, but ZL it's better, for me. :good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] coolrevi:
Zl user here.. I was in similar confusion, well the chose zl over one x plus and s3 mainly its full hd display, I agree that viewing angles are not that great but normally the colors of the display cone out really well, camera though there is a problem with over compression and macro, it gives better results with manual settings, ir blaster is added feature, hardware wise its good too, not too old either. And frankly receiving updates faster than other companies. With every updates its improving, battery is better than s3 for sure. Interface is simple yet beautiful, no bloatware, I have tried most of the high end games, there is a heating issue.

Conclusion at this point of time I would buy zl over s3 or one x plus, or wait for mini version of z1
[Sony Xperia ZL] danieldp1990:

Note is different kind of phone. Bigger screen, s pen, these are some added features, which is not there in any of these phones discussed. And all of these are priced at similar range. my suggestion, go to a store use all these phone side by side pick the one you like most, if you are routine phone switcher consider note 2 as is got good resale price of all these phones.
