[MENTION=4719587]moonight212[/MENTION]

this was an excellent phone for its time, but unfortunately its time has passed.

yes it will do what you want, but the difference in just one year newer is like night and day. my g2 is about a year old and a year newer than this phone and other than the great display on my g3, i prefer the g2 on every other aspect.

if its in your budget, jump up a year to last years models, you wont regret it. there are many other phones comparable to the g2 if you dont like lg, but the development is solid if you are into customizing.

I have a droid maxx I just bought my daughter a new RAZR HD and have to say I am impressed. I have to say it is similar to my maxx in screen quality and speed. Only draw back is half the ram. I got a refurbished phone for 150 on eBay it was a great deal.

Just want to know if anyone one has figured out a way to buy these devices outside of India? I am pretty used to the normal hoops that you need to jump through to get Nexus phones in South Africa, but I am really keen on testing one of these devices.

Searched Ebay, but no one will ship out of India.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Oh nice, they have started to filter into Ebay. Thats a hefty mark up but its a start I guess. Will keep monitoring.

Hi all,

I've recently unlocked the bootloader of my HOX, flashed recovery (CWM) and did a factory reset/wipe all....

but I forgot to do a nandroid backup of my ROM before :( so that I can't reverse back to stock ROM.

Could you please help me ? where can I find a stock ROM?

thanks for your help

[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
Hi,

Casio's new GShock-GBA400 model watch is able to record music sample and query it from Soundhound app on the phone. Then it returns the result from app on the watch's LCS screen as song title.

The watch is communicating with the Android phone through bluetooth.

I believe this could be achieveable with our beloved Gear 2.

Any developer who could do this ? I'd gladly pay for such app.
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
any ideas?

is it possible ?
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
with the soundhound widget and Wearable Widgets app, I was able to do this. Of course it does not use the mic on Gear,instead uses the mic of the phone. But better than nothing.
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
I use AppLauncher and then added Shazam to the list. In Shazam, there's an option to enable the app to listen right after its been opened. Works great
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
A new app got posted today called Gearam Music ID - works great and seems to use the watch mic instead of opening an app on the phone. Bonus is you can immediately play to Google Music if you subscribe.
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
yes, I saw and tried that. Good one.

But personally I would prefer Soundhound. Because Gearam has a smaller DB (imho) , its recognition is not that well.
[Samsung Gear 2] ssyrik:
Gearam uses Gracenote DB.
[Samsung Gear 2] ukdj78:
I used to have Gearam Music ID installed on my watch, but I just bought a new phone and had do a factory reset on the watch when pairing them up. I want to reinstall Gearam but I can't find it in the store anymore! Does anybody have an apk for it?

I recently updated my cingular 8125 to the latest molski 3.0.0.0 Aku 3.2 rom, but has a lot of issues, and i want to downgrade it, to the 3rd version of molski 2.26...

How i can do that? any help?

If you got a G4. Download the G4 rom you want and just downgrade.

I've got the same problem. I downloaded the ROM, but the installer's in Italian, even though the filename has a WWE.

i was able to do it, apparently was a problem on that rom, i installed the 2nd edition and works pefectly, however i still dont have a connection with wifi on dhcp.

after reading a lot, i find out that downgrading to a previous than 2.x version fix this, but i`m not sure if i can do this, since the device is a G4...

Anyone knows if i can downgrade to a cingular 1.x version rom, with a G4 device?

if so, if someone could provide me the a tip for the best 1.x available it will be great.

regards,

John
[G4] vippie:
Don't downgrade a G4 to a 1.x ROM. You will brick you're device.

i kind of did it, i read a thread with a tutorial, who teachs you how you can make a rom without the IPL/SPL, i cooked a 1.81 cingular rom, it was flashed ok in my device, but then get stucked on the splash page...

i`ve had to restore it to molskis 2.26 but there is no solution to the DHCP...

Do you have the same problem with DHCP? or know an alternate solution?

Last night I experienced the following error: "Context service has stopped."

I tried to replace the corrupted APK file with the attached APK (I had nandroid backupped that one) and surprisingly it worked!

So:

1. Download the APK file from below or your own working nandroid backup

2. paste and overwrite the corrupted one (location: system/priv-app)

3. Optional: delete the odex file

4. Reboot device

Please let me know if it worked!

so i was concerened about the Charging contacts on the watch and noticed that there is voltage coming from them, one of them is 1.66 v and the other one is 1.72v.

so i thought that this might wear the contacts out if there is any water between the contacts of water from everytime you wash your hands.

so that is a problem

Supposedly LG issued a fix on a recent update. That would kill the power to the contacts while off the cradle.

Thank you for your help.

The cyanogenmod wiki has a mistake(or software bug in CM11) in its installation instruction for xperia m. To go to the clockworkmod menu I had to press the volume rockers after the light at the bottom turned pink and stop pressing them when the light turns light blue(a bit greenish). If I keep pressing the volume before that then it seems that the phone goes into a bootloop .

How ever i was not able to recover the official rom of sony.But i did manage to install the nightly build for CM11 . :D

But the phone now seems to be a little bit warmer than it used to be while using wifi. Is it ok?

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] aer0zer0:
found this video in my facebook stream, dont know if anybody has seen it yet i thought i would post it. Anyways, the iphone 6 holds up better than the M8 in the bend test.

http://gizmodo.com/consumer-reports...source=gizmodo_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] chowner:
meh. In an actual real world use the m8 is much more rigid than the iphone6
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nabbed:
Actually, we don't know this for sure.

On the other hand, the fact that Consumer Reports test showed a stronger iPhone 6 plus over iPhone six makes me think that there's something wrong with their methodology.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thisguysayswht:
http://youtu.be/IROcoJeVfSI

When is your phone ever going to be supported on two sides, lifted off a surface, with a single point putting pressure on just the center.

That's about as far away from a real world test as you can get.

The curved structure of the m8 adds rigidity when there is an even distribution of pressure, while making it vulnerable to directed pressure (something that pretty much never happens to a phone).

On the other hand the flat shape and added surface area of the iPhone 6+ makes it more susceptible to even distributions of pressure on uneven surfaces, like your bum and a curved chair (a lot more likely in real world usage).

Just my 2¢
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nabbed:
I am sorry. But you just said a whole lot of nonsense in terms of physics.

The curved structure - adds rigidity - when there's an even distribution of pressure - making it vulnerable to direct pressure...

You really don't know anything at all in physics, do you?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] brholt6:
It's a damn phone. Don't sit on it and you're fine. Don't put it through a bend test and you're fine. No need to attack anyone on the knowledge of physics. Was your CE emphasis in structural engineering too?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thisguysayswht:
How about you post your opinion?

Adding a curve to the backside of a flat surface will greatly improve structural integrity compared to a double sided flat surface. When taking onto consideration an evenly distributed load.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] brholt6:
Amen...granted this is just a phone and we'd be going way off topic, but there's a reason why the arch has been used in so many structures throughout our history. The basic principles still apply.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nabbed:
Hey! That looks just like my phone!

You see that gold Dodge POS?

That's where I double-tap to get to the lockscreen info!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] brholt6:
You pulled the physics card, not me.

Pretty bad comeback too. For one, they're driving on the left hand side...not a Dodge. Missing small details like that is a pretty good sign you're not a physics major, nor a structural engineer.

brholt6 FTW!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nabbed:
I did pull that card, sorry. But I'm also trying to get beyond bull**** reasons that fanboys use to justify their preferences.

The only "scientific" test performed so far has been by Consumer Reports.

I questioned their methodology because of the seemingly inconsistent result of ip6 being weaker than ip6+.

Otherwise, I don't really have a reason to think that their results were wrong. It just may be that my M8 is weaker than ip6+. But first, the Consumer Reports results need to be confirmed by a second party.

Look, iPhone 6 is made of soft metal (aluminum) and is also a FLAT slab of it. When I picked up the 6 and the 6+ at the verizon store the other day I had no problem figuring out why people were bending theirs. It's the most fragile feeling iPhone today and I felt like I had to wrap it in bubble wrap. However, the video that "unbox therapy" put up isn't real world usage. All that shows is the user can bend the 6 by putting enough stress on a single point of the phone that it eventually bends. The M8 feels like it would hold up much better in the real world than the 6 or 6+ would. I have an m8 coming today to replace my iPhone 5s.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Is anyone else impressed with Samsung holding up that well?

I personally prefer the lighter Samsung material over the Aluminum in the M8.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TonyStark R.I.P.:
It will be interesting to see how the Samsung L will compare.

Bottom line, the guy from unboxtherapy has set a new standard for testing. I'm sure we can all expect to see this "bend test" from here on.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] RikRong:
This one is much more realistic, though still a little far-fetched.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] aer0zer0:
Wow...... This blew up pretty quickly. I myself just cant see this test being applied in a real world application. But the samsung testing did shock me, but of course, we have really transformed the plastics industry.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Corvus_:
This whole bending thing is insane. This generation of devices have so much more structural rigidity than any previously released yet there's been no mention of it in the past (on any significant scale, anyway).

It's a freaking $600 cell phone, treat it as such with the tiniest bit of care and respect and you will have no issues. You use it to talk on, not prop up your house or hold you vehicle in the air while you change the oil. This whole sh*tshow is put on and sponsored by the media, both net and traditional, and to see folks get so wrapped up in it that they're insulting each other over the internet about it is complete insanity and really goes to show how easily influenced we can be by those how would sway our opinions for gain.

TL;DR- blown out of proportion.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Interesting point of view. What devices of yore are you referring to? From what I remember, older phones were bigger, more bulky and had much better rigidity. This includes all iPhone devices. Up to and including the i6.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kane5581:
I'm sort of a physics buff, nothing official but this is pretty basic, excluding unknown internal structures and focusing on just the outside what he said makes perfect sense. That said, what he said is simply a theory on why the M8 SHOULD be stronger than the Iphone and not evidence that it is. Though he did provide a simple argument invalidating the consumer reports test. The issue is phones bending under real world conditions and I cannot think of one where your phone is supported at two small points at the ends and takes another small pointed load directly to the center, maybe your ass is a small pointed hydraulic press mine is not.
