Thanks for the tips. ? I'm trying to be patient and wait to see what the HTC M9 brings, but I have weak moments every now and then....
[HTC One S] dd98:
m9 is about 6 months away but heres what i think the specs will be, trying to be realistic

Predicted Specs:

Snapdragon 810/Tegra K1 64 bit

1440*2560 5.2 inch screen

18 mp Dual Camera - Based off m8 prime leaks

8 mp front camera

4 gb ram

2700-3000 mAh battery

Same memory options as m8
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
HTC had said it officially that M9 will still using UltraPixel but this time will come with large sensor and 4K recording. So, it will be at least 1/2.3" with 8MP because 4K needs at least 8MP to support.

---------- Post added at 08:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 AM ----------

You can get a Z1 Compact like me as being suggested, it should be real cheap next month after z3c out because they should do cleaning stocks. Still half year before M9 out and I beat M9 will even come with a larger screen but that's what I dislike and probably won't buy it.
[HTC One S] 808phone:
Hey guys,

Wanted to thank everyone in this forum for all of the help with the One S. As you know, I will getting an iPhone 6 plus soon. I will be giving away my One S so I will not have it to debug things.

This is one of the best forums I have ever been involved with. Hope to see some of you guys again when I get my next android phone. Probably a low cost Android one or Motorola G.

Thanks again!
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
Don't go away. Remember to post some photos to compare One S and IP6 Plus camera quality.

A lots of good memory and folks were very very active here(I was surprised really because this is not a flagship)back to the 2012 and 2013. Actually, I feel this was the best board I've ever met because people is really love small phone here, most of us dislike big phone.

It's sad that HTC refused to sell powerful small phone again. Mini1 and Mini2 is just a kidding. This force me moved to Sony Z1 Compact now and probably will get Z3 Compact or Z4 Compact next year and continue to stick with Sony is the only choice to me. I won't giving out my One S anyway so I will still be here around but not buying HTC phone again too. I really love HTC camera and Sense, too bad.

However, the HTC Nexus 8.9 tablet looks good, I may get it next year when I have money(but I think I will first buying out Z3c/Z4c and only get it after that).
[HTC One S] 808phone:
OK I will let you know how the camera is. I'm giving my HTC One S to my dad. It's a GREAT phone, but he needs it more than me. I do love the One S and who knows, maybe I will buy another?
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Ya HTC dropped the ball in offering small powerful phone like Sony does but at same time that's not helping Sony in anyway still all they do is lose money but that's what you get when you release every 6 months and making the z3 the same as z2.
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
I quite like the Iphone6 4.7" but I probably can't afford the price.

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Most of the Sony phones are doing bad, not hard to expect they failed on mobile market. No way return to HTC because 4K recording quality is super amazing and the phone is damn fast with S800. The only bad thing on Z1c camera is focus speed and accuracy not as good as HOS but image quality is noticeably better(speaking for the details level Z1c only slightly better but image appeared to be more three-dimensional closer to the old day of digital compact camera, HOS image is also sharp and clear but got a real flat feeling), the focus is improved on Z3c so I think they should be around the same now.

Let us wait for One Mini3 but I may already got Z3c/Z4c before it out. I'm excited with HTC Nexus 9 but I'm more recommended Ipad mini 2 over Android on tablet. I see you are on M8 now. How good is that?
[HTC One S] 808phone:
I finally received my iPhone 6 plus. This phone finally gave me the one thing I really wanted - long battery life. How bout this? From 5am, I had it off charger and used it for the normal, browsing, email, Facebook. Then I used it for 4 1/2 hours with golflogix - a GPS golf app. All the while checking email, responding to queries, etc... Next back home and using it a lot - browsing etc... I also used the slo-mo video a few times and took pictures during the day. Left it off charger and now at 10am next day, it has 55% battery left. I guess I could go another day, but the battery lasts like how I wanted a phone to last. I know the LG G2 has battery life like this and that was my other choice.

I have to check out the pictures. BTW: My dad received the One S and had no problems running it. Never ran Android before.
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
IP6+ used 2910mah battery ..... any phone who got this capacity could use full day without problem.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
You forgot the bit about it bending lol. Ya that battery does sound good tho.
[HTC One S] 808phone:
I assume that's a joke or you never took your One S apart - where you have to be VERY careful not to bend the aluminum.

The phone is very sturdy and the battery is incredible. Every night so far about 60% battery left. The camera is great but I've been getting good pictures since my iPhone 4S.

BTW: Didn't they do a bend test and the HTC One M8 was even more fragile than the iPhone 6 plus? I think they did.

http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2014/09/consumer-reports-tests-iphone-6-bendgate/index.htm

I'd be worried about your phone first.
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
Taking it apart and sitting on it is two different things also [MENTION=4006638]TheEndHK[/MENTION] is right any phone with that battery will last BTW do you believe every thing you read real life vs In the lab is two different things I'm willing to bet that phone would bend in my pocket over a m8 from the size and how thin the phone also this is a android form if you haven't noticed
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Lol its a joke and plus if my phone was so fragile why has nobody complained about it unlike the 6+?

Edit, also why would I take apart my phone when it worked fine?
[HTC One S] 808phone:
>why has nobody complained about it unlike the 6+?

I'm sure you know the answer to that one. As for the One S, I took it apart for the larger battery which works well for me.

Oh and nobody?

[HTC One S] rosswhite:
Anyone buying the Nexus 6 today?
[HTC One S] speedfreak007:
I don't know which rom you're using, but my battery life is just absolutely terrible (with 2100mah battery!). With 3G, wifi and bluetooth constantly on, I can't make it through the day with light usage. Thank god I just bought my oneplus one, battery life 2 days with everything on all the time.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Then there was something wrong with your phone because my battery was better than that and I had the phone for 2 years.
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
Indeed, I'm also considering to get either a phablet or small tablet next year. Though I like phone in compact size but I also need a bigger screen to read any ebooks and I have plenty.

N6 is too expensive USD$649 and too big 5.95". I'm thinking to get Note3 or Ipad mini2 or Nexus7 when they become even cheaper next year.
[HTC One S] fusk:
If i'm not mistaken the 801 chipset isn't x64 compatible, and i've got a One S that still looks like it's new, not a single scratch after 2 years.

So there isn't really a point in looking at new phones before new once are released with Qualcomms 810/808 64bit chips later this year.

If i were to pick i'd pick xperia z3 compact.
[HTC One S] rosswhite:
I ended up buying a used Nexus 5 for £175 to use until the new phones come out in March/April.

Have to say I'm really impressed with the device. Took a little while to get used to it but now really enjoying it. Thought I would miss sense but so far I haven't at all, the stock ROM is super fast and smooth. The difference between official stock and the AOSP ports we had for our device is night and day, but I guess that is to be expected. I thought the One S was still pretty fast but compared to this it feels so slow. I struggled with the battery at first but once I turned off location and Facebook sync etc.. it easily lasts the day. The camera also takes some pretty decent pictures if you get the scene right.

Overall, I think its a great upgrade from the one s if you don't mind a bigger device. Its at a good price for what you get and with the lollypop update on the way things will only improve. Highly recommended.
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
Rumor said there will be a z4c with z4. If it is true, you can get a z3c with a fairly cheap price or get a z4c with 64bit support. I think I'll just get a z3c for cheap if camera no much improvement on z4c.

---------- Post added at 08:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 PM ----------

LOL ... S800 is sure pretty damn fast. My Z1c is also running on s800, I think it has 3x speed over One S. S800 is still top of the line cpu, s801 just slightly higher clocked(but the most important part is battery friendly) and s805 further improved the GPU speed for 2K mon. Basically, s800/s801/s805 doesn't has a big different in terms of raw speed. Until s810 come out, it would be a total new architecture.

I've got a friend who own N5. Indeed the phone is quite slim and is not that big but I would suggest people switch to Z1c/Z3c or Galaxy Alpha if they want a small flagship. My Z1c is doing very well but the only annoyed me thing is bad focus performance sometimes even worse than One S though the image/video quality out-performed One S to a noticeable degree but I'm not satisfied with the focus result. So, I'm thinking to move on again to Z3c/Z4c or Alpha later in the same time frame with you around March/April.
[HTC One S] javelinanddart:
I just got the phone in June 2014 as a hand-me-down, won't get another one for 2 years and it will probably be a Galaxy S5 (Screw KNOX, I'm installing CM)

It doesn't hold up against current gen Mid Range Smartphones because of the GPU. For example, all the phones listed below are msm8960 or S4 Plus or Pro SoCs that I know of.

Moto X 1st gen

Moto G

Moto G 2nd Gen

Moto E

Samsung Galaxy S4

Nexus 4

Sony Xperia SP

Sony Xperia T

Sony Xperia TX

Sony Xperia Z

Sony Xperia ZL

Sony Xperia ZR

From CM's Wiki

The differences is that MOST have a newer GPU than the Adreno 225 so they perform a little bit better

But some are MSM8226, MSM8260A, MSM8960, APQ8064 and that makes a difference too.

However I wouldn't trade it for any of those phones (except the one m7 or the desire 815) because I like HTC.

Unfortunetely, I will get an S5 next. Shouldve told my uncle to get the One M8 but I didn't know about knox then :(
[HTC One S] e_dawg:
I got a OnePlus One :D. Great battery life and performance with that neat texture on the back lol. My screen cracked in a million places a while ago and it got almost impossible to read stuff on the screen, and preorders for the OPO were just starting, so I thought why not get it lol. I still use my One S because cm12 is so smooth on it and fast, but once I get the screen fixed I'm giving it to my dad.:p
[HTC One S] dd98:
just a little tip for you, replacing the screen might cost as much as buying a second hand One S. I got mine second hand for €140 and when I cracked the screen, it was going to cost €125 to get repaired, and that was the cheapest price I got but then I saved my money and ended up buying a One (M7)
[HTC One S] e_dawg:
Thanks, but luckily its not the digitizer that broke :angel: its just the glass, so I was looking at this for it http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?i...Pqvd66eXmccagkYGcdoUThoCnlzw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
[HTC One S] dd98:
Ok but take caution in removing the glass since the digitizer is very easily damaged, like what happened to my One S
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
wow, you guys still trying to repair One S. But I will also continue to use One S in 2015 and wish the Lollipop 5.0+Sense6 port from M7/M4 to be success so that we still have many works to busy with One S in this year.
[HTC One S] dd98:
My One S was barely working since September and it finally decided to give up on me last week so I spent a few days trying to fix it without electrocuting myself so I gave up trying to fix it. I'm still going to go ahead with the Lollipop Sense 6 port when HTC finally sends it out to the EU M7
[Android Apps and Games] Eshque:
Hi, everyone!

For a past month our newly created development team was focused on creating simple yet addictive timekiller. We wanted to create a game that people will play with one hand while extremely bored or waiting for something

So we created Tap The Spot, it's already available on Google Play. And now we really need some feedback! Is this game fun to play? Is it worth couple of minutes of your time? Is it challenging enough? Does it look good?

Please, tell us what do you think. Also, leave a review at Google Play if you can. Thanks in advance!

P.S. I can't post a link to a game as a new user. But you can find the game in Google Play by it's package id: com.eshque.tapthespot. Sorry for such inconvenience.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Marshall1975:
Not sure if anyone else has seen but verizon is rolling out 4.4.2 now for their P605. Hopefully should be good enough for the devs to push out a rom.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
That's a first. Usually VZW is usually the last-of-the-last to roll out an update. The U.S. carriers omit the dialer and MMS plus their radios are proprietary. I wouldn't install the VZW ROM on a non-VZW N10.1-14.

Will the DooMKernel give you better performance (faster) with the same battery life? Thanks for your reply.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
That's what i feel with v15 on .757 firmware
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tknguyencsu:
So v15 works better than v16?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
It's more stable. Most users are getting random reboots on v16. I experienced them too and so i settled on v15. Works perfectly :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Thiolo:
do Z1 and z ultra das the same kernel built on doom?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
Yes. Dbolivar has ported it unofficially from z1 to Z ultra. So the features shall remain same
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] diji1:
I have been benchmarking various firmwares & settings combinations for my own gratification which I may post later - anyhow what I've concluded so far is .757 + Doom Kernel v16 is marginally slower than stock kernel but is better on battery use - more than enough to make up for the performance difference which I doubt you'd notice.

I haven't changed any settings from their defaults so I suspect it's governors that is causing this.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
On v15 i got 34648 which is better than the average of 33k ish i get on stock. However i don't trust benchmarks anyway but doomkernel made the OS much smoother than that by stock kernel
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
I always run mine OCed so yes it is smoother than stock for sure. Not that stock is bad to begin with.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] diji1:
Just noticed stock rom + DooMKernel is noticeably better on GTA San Andreas. The game used to start chugging at times with stock (which didn't seem to be related to graphics settings).

Also DoomKernel uses Ondemand governor by default - anyone know what stock uses? But in any case my theory about governor is out the window.

After many years of observing confirmation bias with users I've come to trust benchmarks more than users reported experiences but each to their own ;) For example I don't believe overclocking that small amount is going to lead to any noticeable increase in smoothness for most applications after you remove confirmation bias. Come to think of it ... it would be nice if there was an app out there that could set up blind testing for user experiences if that's possible.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
Last time I checked, stock kernel was by default using the interactive governor, but AFAIK it's the same as ondemand, except that it jumps to higher frequencies more agressively when the user is interacting with the phone (mostly by a kind of touch / input boost). In latest versions of the ondemand governor, I've also seen an "input_boost" option, so I think the difference is even less clear now.

For a proper benchmark which will be more consistent and easily reproducible across your firmwares and kernels, set everything to performance (i.e. CPU and GPU governors), and disable any battery saving and thermal throttle options in the kernel (beware your phone will get HOT during the testing, avoid repeating it too many times in a row or in a hot weather, or don't do it at all if you don't want to take the risk!). That's how some people get some very high numbers, if not by OC'ing the CPU.

And smoothness and lags are almost all about the governor choice and its fine tuning. For instance, I can't get a totally smooth scroll in some apps with ondemand or intellidemand, even after tweaking the settings; however, with smartassv2 and lagfree, everything is very smooth and battery is also good.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
Stock kernel uses Ondemand governor by default. It can be changed to interactive/powersave/conservative i think if i remember properly
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] diji1:
Ah cheers for that info and I'll start doing that on the benchmarks I do. (CPU benchmarks in particular are all over the place presumably due to governors)

That's interesting because it's been a while since I looked at the descriptions of what governors do but I seem to recall ondemand (to put it very simply) ramps up speed very quickly and basically gives high priority to performance over others.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sadman Khan:
Interactive is faster than ondemand at the expense of battery life as it ramps up the cpu frequency faster

You can update without wiping, so you won't lose anything but root. Just remember to untick the options under wiping in Flashtool. You'll have to root again, but that's just flashing a kernel and SuperSU. It takes literally 1 minute.
