Android Thread v. They forgot to frost Android 1.5 - Hardware & Software

The One feels amazingly durable next to my broken Optimus G, so I would not worry too hard about the case. That being said, it is expensive and pretty, so wanting to protect it is definitely valid.

After I saw the teardown, I knew that breaking anything is going to be impossible to fix. Even the speaker grilles, and those are just pieces that are glued on to the front of the phone.

I think I'll get a microfiber pouch for mine for when its in my pocked but other than that I'll not be using a case

So someone tell me if I am an idiot. So my dad wanted to borrow my phone so he could use it to transfer ios apps to android.............................. well fuck.

[QUOTE=Hunt3r.j2;40427757]???????? wat[/QUOTE] Yep, same thing I said when my dad came up to me and asked if he could transfer his ios apps to an android phone.

Transfer? like, how?

[QUOTE=sdwise;40427828]Transfer? like, how?[/QUOTE] I have no idea, to be completely honest, I have no idea how he even thought of the idea. [editline]25th April 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=person11;40427857][url]http://www.oppousa.com/[/url] If anyone wants a nearly stock unlocked Android phone.[/QUOTE] Isn't this from a Chinese manufacture?

[QUOTE=person11;40427857][url]http://www.oppousa.com/[/url] If anyone wants a nearly stock unlocked Android phone.[/QUOTE] That actually looks like a really good phone. Although I am a bit skeptical as the brand is one of those unknown brands.

As for it being an "unknown" and "offbrand", yes. But it's a good one. A very good one. Like "lady that works in the Gucci store thinks the fake purse is the real one" good. Seriously, though, it's been making waves. [editline]26th April 2013[/editline] AP posted this on G+. I hate them. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/GlFL7L4.png[/thumb]

I just posted it because I do like options, especially when there are only a couple high-end Android phones that are truly good being offered in the United States (Galaxy S4 and the HTC One).

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;40423975]Totally worth it especially for your device.[/QUOTE] Ok, thanks. Anyone here did this with this device before? or is there a general guide somewhere? Which release is even the best one?

Holy shitballs this is so smart. HTC made a screen time-out mode called auto sleep that instead of depending upon the FFC, it's a gyroscope based system. Screen time-out is one minute, but if you set down the phone so that it's either screen up or down, it will automatically set the timeout to 15 seconds. It's also not retarded, so if the phone is set on a table and it isn't moved, the timeout stays at 1 minute.

Just bought tasker, IT IS AMAZING

[QUOTE=Oxu365;40429236]Just bought tasker, IT IS AMAZING[/QUOTE] I missed when it was on sale for $2 :<

[QUOTE=Oxu365;40429236]Just bought tasker, IT IS AMAZING[/QUOTE] I'm a huge idiot and don't know how to fiddle with tasker at all... But I still got it during that sale though! Just haven't done anything with it yet...

Just haven't done anything with it yet...[/QUOTE] I'm just getting around on how to use it, but I made it so that when I connect my charger my phone closes 3G and starts using WiFi instead, and when I disconnect the charger it changes back to 3G and closes WiFi. I also made it open my music player when I connect earphones

[QUOTE=person11;40427857][url]http://www.oppousa.com/[/url] If anyone wants a nearly stock unlocked Android phone.[/QUOTE] 'Nearly Stock Android Phone' It runs MIUI.

It doesn't run MIUI, it looks like MIUI though.

That Oppo phone does 120fps recording, that's pretty cool. Although their marketing is sort of contradictory when they say it's five times what the eye can perceive, since even if that was the truth it'd mean there's not really any point in having 120fps recording beyond slowmo videos and freeze frames.

[QUOTE=Flash_Fire;40429753]It doesn't run MIUI, it looks like MIUI though.[/QUOTE] How can you be sure though? I don't think it runs MIUI, but I can't see any app drawer which tells me that it is MIUI. Though the icons are kind of organized and not all cluttered together, so I don't think it runs MIUI. [editline]26th April 2013[/editline] Nevermind, saw the app drawer now. Weird placement and weird icon.

Fooled me anyway, I thought it was MIUI like those Xiaomi phones. Well anyway it still looks like a cool phone, but I have to wonder how good the update support would be from this relatively unheard of company.

Their skin was ugly then. :v: If the build quality is good, the hardware is as they promise and developers create stuff for it, it could become my next phone.
