[QUOTE=benjgvps;38355739]My dad's girlfriend got some LTE Sony Xperia phone and it's such a mess. The capacitive buttons were slow to respond sometimes and the contacts are really inconsistent. She added a picture for example on one contact, though it wouldn't show up in the messaging app.[/QUOTE] Sounds like the Xperia ion, or all of the ones before it.
[QUOTE=iCole;38354748]So Anandtech apparently ran benchmarks on the N4 again, this time with much better results: [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/12rk7s/anandtech_have_run_new_nexus_4_benchmarks_which/[/url] Possibly a software update that improved the phones performance? I just hope the same can be done with the camera, because [URL="http://youtu.be/J9f_DAdlRq8?hd=1"]video (and audio) still sucks.[/URL][/QUOTE] If you read the comments on that site, they got better scores because this time they tested it in the freezer to see if thermal throttling was an issue. Turns out it is.
Splashtop is pretty nice if you have a stylus-enabled tablet. Sad thing is, though, it fucks up with palm rejection. When my hand rests on my tablet, the palm rejection activates when I hover my stylus over the tablet. However, Splashtop still has my hand palm points registered as depressed. Even if I let go of both my hand and my stylus. I have to reconnect to get rid of those touch points.
I can't get Splashtop 2 to login. It just fails and tells me to check my Internet connection.

[QUOTE=Hunt3r.j2;38352214][img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A7DD_xUCIAASQ_i.jpg:large[/img] This might be okay.[/QUOTE] 1080p screen with HTC's amazing battery reputation. Sounds like a winning combination.
[QUOTE=garychencool;38346054]Oh hey guys, if any of you have some time and have the Google Drive app, quickly open a document or make a new one, rotate your phone to landscape (and turn on screen rotation if you have it off) type some stuff, spam enter to make new lines and scroll. If you are getting a vibration every time to scroll, report it to me or something.[/QUOTE] Guy's please try this. Just post it as a comment reply.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iRI17.jpg[/IMG] It's a bit of a step down.
FINALLY got my paws on a Nexus 7. Such an awesome little toy. Absolutely getting one soon. For my mom obviously. That.. [I]was..[/I] the plan after all. Hey screw you Gonzales! She is going to use it. ...to play Angry Birds. :v:

Worst part is it was stolen in June. Long time to be using that piece of shit. [editline]7th November 2012[/editline] Decided to get the Nexus 4 though. Not long now.

OH MY FUCKING GOD i dropped my s2 down the stairs and its completely broken now :(( the screen wont turn on at all, its totally cracked fucking rip [editline]7th November 2012[/editline] i have a fucking SE walkman phone right now fucking how long until the nexus 4? or is it worth it at all as of now? i cant live with a dumbphone help
[QUOTE=TippZ;38357919]i have a fucking SE walkman phone right now fucking how long until the nexus 4? or is it worth it at all as of now? i cant live with a dumbphone help[/QUOTE] N4 is the way to go; cheap as fuck and great specs. The only complaint I have seen is battery life, which in a comparison was said to be better than the iPhone 4's which lasted me days.
i got the money for buying any phone, just saying
Still. Either that, the S3 or the HTC One X. Take your pick, they are the best I have seen after researching the fuck out of like every phone in existence. Just because the N4 is cheap doesn't mean it's shit. In fact, LG are going to sell it for 600 euros outside of the Google Play store since Google subsidise the price, so it's actually an expensive phone that they pay half the price for.
thats the point, its gonna be expensive since play store wont sell devices for a long time in sweden i reckon... and its still discussed if its actually good or not
No store in Sweden? That sucks. All the reviews I have read of it say it's good. Where is this discussion of which you speak?
Wow it also vibrates when I zoom in, wtfffff
the discussion? in this thread, its performance was questioned, wasnt it? or was that something else and of course stores will sell the N4 but what i said was that the Google Play Store wont sell devices in sweden for a long time
Wow I found the problem, Damn notification toggle was causing this. Diabled that shit in the assesibility settings.

[QUOTE=DanTehMan;38356575]If you read the comments on that site, they got better scores because this time they tested it in the freezer to see if thermal throttling was an issue. Turns out it is.[/QUOTE] So doesn't that mean people who were lucky enough to get well-performing chips could undervolt to reduce temps, and thus reduce throttling? If it's really making so much of a difference then it sounds like undervolting would be better than overclocking for sustained performance under load.
[url]http://www.androidcentral.com/lg-nexus-4-review#camera[/url] why is the front cam better than the rear cam? What the fuck. This better be fixable by an update.

Titanium got updated with flashable zips.
Now imagine if your power went out for days, and your smartphone ran out of battery. Your situation could still be worse.
