    Post Android 4.4 Galaxy S4 DISCUSSION

    I hear this a lot, and at times I agree with you. However, what's stopping you from just plugging in an external battery pack every once in a while? I've been debating getting an extra battery for my s4, and I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna stick with an external battery pack instead, just...

    Post [GUIDE] Eliminate Screen Wake Lag

    My post about this never received much attention in the GS4 forums, so here's nothing: I have not tried this fix yet, but I have an observation to make. With no effects on, no lockscreen widgets, etc, the lag from pressing the power button to the lockscreen actually showing is around 2-3...

    Post Lock screen wake up lag

    I really didn't mean to submit that yet haha. Let's start from where I left off. ...I.e. The phone goes straight to the home screen. There is absolutely no lag from waking up, so I'm not convinced by the wake lock deep sleep argument. Let me know what you guys think Sent from my...

    Thread Lock screen wake up lag

    So when the phone wakes up there is very noticeable lag when going to the lock screen. I have 1 lock screen widget, dashclock, and have turned off swipe effects, etc. The surprising thing to me is that if you completely turn off the lock screen, I.e. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda...

    Post [KERNEL/Blue ROM](018)TW/GE/AOSP(UV/Intelliplug/dfsync/FauxSound/exFat)[Aug-02]

    MD5 Is there an MD5 we can compare the kernel download with? I am getting bootloops after flashing 004m jflteatt, and I'm pretty sure it's because of download size

    Post Battery Life?

    Thanks for correcting me, for some reason I thought that the Verge did use their standardized test. I guess it's unfortunate that the reviews are just posted ASAP to generate more pageviews. I think for a good battery test we should wait for the Anandtech Review. Does anyone know if Engadget did...

    Post Battery Life?

    We need standardized results Guys, asking about daily usage battery life doesn't really help anyone. Everyone's usage will be different, so each persons mileage may vary. What we need are standardized battery life tests across numerous devices in order to make a fair and unbiased comparison...

    Post htc one matches macbook pro design

    I like how it tapers just like the macbook pros. Not as much as the Air (cause that would just feel weird in your hand) but tapering to a thinner edge. It provides that super-thin illusion. But it's just that, an illusion. Which kind of pisses me off. Looking at other designs, it seems that HTC...

    Post htc one matches macbook pro design

    I believe that Apple was sue-happy when Jobs was in power, but Tim Cook is pretty against it. It doesn't seem like the HTC One really infringes on Apple design patents, but I'm not an IP lawyer, so...

    Post htc one matches macbook pro design

    The problem I have with ASUS laptops is that their touchpads were always so finicky. Although, I really do want one of their touchscreen ultrabooks. My rMBP is pretty good in terms of performance and battery life, plus the screen is downright gorgeous.

    Post htc one matches macbook pro design

    I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. For that, I apologize. I meant that it would be cool if Apple kept design cues across its own entire line, not between separate companies' products.
