[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] marto_martin:
Was reading through another forum today and someone was asking about the O2 Atom and I-Mate JAMin. I knew about the atom but hadn't heard anything about the JAMin :shock:

Thought I'd do a search on the trusty xda-developers forum and found it actually comes under the Prophet group :? why??? isn't it just the replacement of the Jam as the Atom is to the mini??

Anyway looks like some research ahead me!

marto
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] TheBrit:
No....the Atom is not even made by HTC.

Strictly speaking, the Charmer replaces the Magician, the Prophet is something else. Various providers seem to have done different things though. T-Mobile brought out the Comact-II which is a Charmer. O2 brough out the Atom, I-Mate brought out the Jamin (Prophet) Orange have brought out the M600 (also a Prophet) etc etc etc.

Each has replaced their variations on the Magician in thier own way.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] marto_martin:
WOW thats certainly a handfull, thanks TheBrit

Explains why I haven't seen any comparisions as there in two different threads areas. :?

Although I haven't had a chance to fully read up on both it appears the Atom has major phone issues like echo, etc. and the JAMin has had multi ROM updates suggesting there are ongoing issues they are concerned about.... :shock:

Anyone got any -/+ feedback on these puppies?

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] PeterW:
I checked out the Atom in a store recently and did not like it. The very shiny case was literally covered in fingerprints, and the screen image seemed washed out (contrast too high) and the image did not use up all of the space. In short, I was disappointed.

I'm hoping to check out the JAMin tomorrow (in a store in Sydney), and have heard that the latest ROM really brings the device up to speed at last. Note that the Atom has an Intel processor and the JAMin a TI OMAP processor, so they really are different gadgets.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] marto_martin:
Hi Peter,

Thanks for that :D The info I'm finding on the 2 units certainly supports your comments.

I look forward to hearing how your adventures go with the JAMin, I haven't found any stockests in Perth yet (like there's a surprise :o ).

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Camstech:
JAMin the Atom

In short, bought an Atom, great speakers, A2DP, and that is about it. Bluetooth weak, no voice dial through headset, no external aerial (the latter killed it for me as I am often in weak radio areas). Shiny case looks good, but don't pick it up without gloves. Now on third ROM. It is stable however, but camera is crap!

Bought JAMin. Even though JAMin is 195Mhz and Atom is 416MHz, hardly any difference. JAMin has great Bluetooth (no A2DP though Grrr), Voice dials, and soft keys make 1 handed operation possible. Screens about the same, Camera slightly better.

If you can live without FM radio and dual speakers, go JAMin and pocket $200.

Cheers.

[HTC Desire X] nightwalkerkg:
Ok then,thanks a lot guys.

One more question i am trying to get the dock bar opaque on the blinkfeed but transparent on other screen pages. Can you just guide me where are the settings for the dock ? xD I am lost with all these files. xD
[HTC Desire X] ckpv5:
Is this Dock, you are referring to the NavBar ?

If it is the stock Prism.apk, you don't need to decommpile it. Just take out home_nav_bg.jpg from res/drawable-hdpi and change its transparency to your liking and drag it back to the Prism.apk. You'll have Dock transparent/any transparency that you choose but the dock on blinkfeed page still opaque.
[HTC Desire X] nightwalkerkg:
Now that is something i can do easy. :D Thanks a lot. :D

I will try to follow the tutorial for porting 4.2 statusbar tiles to 4.1. If i have some questions i will post them here.
[HTC Desire X] nightwalkerkg:
I did it,but when i push the Prism.apk to system and reboot i get fc.
[HTC Desire X] ckpv5:
Is the home_nav_bg.jpg properly done ? Is the permission is set correctly when pushed to system ?

Here is mine .. after I made the home_nav_bg.jpg transparent and pushed back the Prism.apk to system/app

Here is my apk if you want to compare with yours.

Time to bed now ... enjoy your new adventure in modding ;)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Factory reset and test but you are on old firmware .
[M.O.J.O. General] Pleiades7:
I have a feeling the question answers itself, but...

There is really no PRO having a OUYA over the MOJO, right?

I'm really just interested in emulators older games (the PSX and N64) and don't feel the OUYA will be able to handle that.

But I noticed it's proprietary store with it's own apps. However, those are just android apps with OUYA skins? There's not some optimizations built into them that can come close to the MOJO's performance?
[M.O.J.O. General] vostok4:
In terms of hardware, the Tegra 4 GPU and CPU are more than just a generational jump over Tegra 3. There isn't really any PRO to having OUYA unless you are heavily invested in that ecosystem.
[M.O.J.O. General] ExtremeRyno:
The only PRO to an OUYA, as I mentioned in another post where you roughly asked the same question is that they have their own appstore where everything is guaranteed to be compatible and able to use. The MOJO is a far superior system, and the CTRLR is awesome.
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Ouya is a scam

Oh don't get me started with ouya!

Firstly it's not worth $100 now (even back at launch!).

Every thing about Ouya is cheap

.

CTRLR is 500% better then the Ouya controller - no start/select/media buttons, $50USD for a throw away controller??? LMAO!

16GB over 8GB

BT4 over BT2

MicroSD over nothing

USB2 and USB3 over just USB2

blah blah...

People were right to suggest buying a tablet with HDMI out then the ouya, and that's what I did also!

I don't want to spend $100 each year on cheap sh!t but many people do.

It's there business model to sell cheap hardware to children every year.. the MOJO is an teen/adult product for sure, that's why it's worth three times as much.

I wanted to believe in ouya as it was the first, but over time

their talk and what they produce is two different things

.

If you want to read my rant about this, it's here: http://xpcoin.com/2013/12/16/a-game-developers-analysis-of-the-mad-catz-mojo/

Everyone is waiting on KitKat, some doubt it will happen, but they have been saying it will come, so I don't see why it wouldn't.

For most things 4.4.2 is fine as is, it's a pain with google play, but there's ways around it for most apps.

If you are serious about emulating PSX and N64 why not build a small PC box??

Or better yet get the actual hardware and get a rom interface board ;)
[M.O.J.O. General] mherma:
I don't think OUYA is necessarily a scam...come on now, for $100 you get an Android gaming console with controller - plus I think they were the first company out there that really got a lot of us excited about an Android gaming console.

What turned me off from OUYA is the fact of the closed app ecosystem, 8gb of storage, and that controller well....you know. But for $100? Might be good for the not-so power user of Android. Maybe they'll step up their game with the OUYA 2.

Right now though, I'm very happy with my MOJO. More and more games are becoming available almost week by week. I can't wait to see where were at in just 6 months time :cool:
[M.O.J.O. General] ExtremeRyno:
Heh..I've actually got one of my old desktops sitting behind the TV just for this purpose....Which is actually why I got the MOJO, so I didn't have to use the PC anymore. I do miss having a CD-ROM for my Saturn and PSX, though, but I ripped most of my PSX games and the ISO's work just as well.
[M.O.J.O. General] Pleiades7:
Tried the PC box thing, just didn't like the way it felt. So I jailbroke my PS3 and use retroXMB for most things. But the PS3 can't do PSX emulation right (only non-shader boot rome in MM which gives you no customizations options) and N64 is out of the question.

So spending $150 for a MOJO just for a couple of emulators (FPse and N64 and....if the gods smile upon me....a gamecube emulator, if that could handle it, but I can live without it) makes me a happy girl and saves me the hundreds of dollars for the PC box.

Yes, I got my MOJO for $150. They had a quick sale on Amazon and got lucky. Ironically, as much as I love it, I probably wouldn't pay $250 since at that point I might as well just buy a custom PC. But, hell, $150 for a micro console that is essentially an major improvement on the OUYA priced at around the same price is/was a no-brainer.

Thx guys for all the advice. Im a dummie when it comes to this stuff and appreciate the clarification!
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Ouya

Claiming to be an emulation device when their controllers don't have start/select, I call this profiting at the expense of it's fans! :mad:

When they launched, their controller was $30, after they launched it went to $50, I call this extortion! :eek:

All games free to play but require a Credit Card at setup! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :confused:

The 'Free the games' fund benifited larger studios while publicly shafting the the indie devs it claimed to support from the start!!! :crying:

Yeah, I call Ouya a scam:laugh:

It might have been the first 'microconsole' but it has zero integrity to me.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stepinmyworld:
So I made a post (not thread) about the front facing camera on the note 3 in the cm11 rom thread.

I noticed the kit kat camera did a way better job with low light and good saturation. On the note 3, the camera can have a tan deadish color .. The quality on the kit cat cam was HTC one quality or iPhone quality

The issue with the kit kat camera was that the picture was blurry after you snap the shot so it's unusable for me. Being as though the quality could be so good in the kit kat cam and have trouble when it's not really light out on the touchwiz camera tells me that it's the software with the camera app that Samsung provides.

I actually tried a bunch of other camera apps out and none of them seem to produce great quality like the kit kat one did because the highest they go in resolution is 1.3mp when this camera is 2.1mp.

Anyone notice this?

Hi everyone,

My SGSII has gone through a lot and I would like to see if I can "refresh it"

I've seen on the web people that sells spare parts for the phone, however I'm not sure what to get because I do believe the phone has like 3 frames.

The screen is perfect, maybe a really small barely noticeable scratch, the middle frame (metallic?) is the one that is really damaged taking drop hits, battery cover might be replaced.

Do I have to get the screen or digitalizer as well? I have seen some procedures and they basically rip apart the digitalizer damaging it for good.

Thank you for your time and help.

Welp, when you make the commitment to using a phone that runs an O/S highly dependent upon making use of Google services and integration, you choose to accept that more often than not, many apps and features are going to be considered overkill. :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rosa Elefant:
"lol".

1. No one is forced to use Google services on Android.

2. I prefer apps which follow the "one tool - one purpose" paradigm, and I've been able to find a lot of them over the last few months.

"lololol".

Get your facts straight.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azvlean:
Agree with you, we don't have to be Google slaves. Google knows almost everything but that's not a reason to say " Ok Google, spy all my data with all your services ". There's a lot of apps which are maybe less performant, or with less features, but which respect as much as possible our privacy.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwrmedia:
:rolleyes:

Not sure where you assumed I insinuated that anyone is "forced" to use Google services, and equally puzzled as to the rude nature of your response. Particularly considering that I was in agreement w/ you on using Evernote AND agreement that Google Drive (amongst other services) are in fact overkill. My response to your resistance to using Google Drive was simply that Google and overkill go hand in hand.

The "facts" are that Android, though open source, has a fairly solid Google footprint. Most users are aware of this upon purchasing an Android handset, and are equally aware that Google makes a concerted effort to integrate as many services as they offer as possible. Conversely, most of us XDA'ers are quite aware that we can minimize Google's footprint w/ 3rd party apps and other modifications.

That being said, none of this was the point of the OP's thread. He simply asked a question re: an app, and expected an answer. Not a debate over whether or not privacy is compromised.

In any event, and to avoid the risk of hijacking the OP's thread any more than it already has been, I will respectfully bow out of the conversation.
