pattern recognition Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 how is the mic on the htc one x for recording videos? i haven't done a whole lot of video recording with it at this point, but it seems good, at least as good as the iphones i've had.

Guest EleminoP Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I told my new S3 to search for aphex twin and it searched for s*** t** instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 *bump* I have an ageing Nokia handset (2.6mp camera! hideous integrated gps software that never worked! the ability to link text messages so you can send more than 160 characters!) that is finally about to crumble into oblivion. Going to tentatively dip my toes into the waters of "smart" phones. Was thinking about the google nexus 4 or possibly the sony xperia SP, something fairly established on the market that will do me for generic browsing? GPS / mapping would be useful for my cycling trips. Any other recommendations? Nothing brand new thats going to have teething problems, I never go for new technology.....

eugene Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 so yeah, i managed to skip a generation with my 2deep4u contemplations/lack of cash but this time i'm fucking ready, i literally have 700 usd in cash for galaxy S4. so the question this time is what are some good reasons for NOT buying galaxy S4 ?

Ego Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I recommend the Nexus 4/5. I'm probably going to try this one: http://jolla.com/ Ex-Nokia people that worked on N900/N9. Some of their Qt UI work is class. The pull down swipe menu with haptic feedback looks brilliant. And it runs Android apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugene Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 I recommend the Nexus 4/5. this looks good, but no sd card slot which is kind of a big deal i think. also can you replace galaxy's bloatware with a clean os ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of their Qt UI work is class. The pull down swipe menu with haptic feedback looks brilliant. And it runs Android apps. The fact that it runs Android apps is not a good thing at all. One only need look at the epic fail that was OS/2, to see why having the ability to run the leading competitor's apps is a very very bad thing.

Ego Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I disagree. It's just a feature to increase the practical use. They should be able to get a community up to create native apps which integrate better with their UI standards. Their Qt tools and API are really impressive... I recommend the Nexus 4/5. this looks good, but no sd card slot which is kind of a big deal i think. also can you replace galaxy's bloatware with a clean os ? Yes you can load other clean and better roms on an S4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Is Cyanogenmod still the best alternative rom to bung on phones? My galaxy s3 (i9300) is becoming increasingly sluggish so I'm planning on doing a factory reset - so was thinking, if I do that I might as well root & flash it at the same time. Back in my HTC Desire days Cyanogenmod was pretty much the only option but there seems to be a shit tonne of options nowadays. So yeah, shall I wait for a stable Cyanogen v11 build or is there something better out there (I've read a lot of politics going on in that company especially with their move to becoming Cyanogenmod Inc that have had a negative effect on the rom builds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granty Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Has anyone downgraded from a smart phone to a dumb phone? I'm think of selling my HTC and getting a cheap Samsung that can just handle calls and texts. I'm stuck in this perpetual loop of checking emails, Facebook, Twitter and watmm and I want it to stop. On top of that I want a phone I can charge once and it'll last all week. Anybody else done this? Did you regret it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugene Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 *waits for galaxy s5 presentation on monday* i can't believe that i started this thread just after galaxy s3 release and still haven't bought anything, lol. but if the s5 is awesome enough i'll get it, if not, then s4 with inevitable discount is a good idea as well. i actually had a lot of time to play with s3 and i felt that it could be both faster and slightly bigger (especially for reading purposes).

Guest fiznuthian Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I like any phone that fully supports rooting and cyanogenmod (or some of the aosp variants) so i can replace Verizon's shit software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugene Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 holy shit, I had no idea that adblock can basically filter your whole phone and all of the apps, it did feel quite retrded without it...no wonder google removed it from the playstore. are there any super essential apps that do not require a root ? (I dont want to mess up the warranty) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
