THREAD CLOSED PUT JB RELATED ISSUES IN THE JB STICKY oka1
Saw these tips on how to port JB to ICS devices, thought I would post the link for devs to review and see if we can get an early port of JB for the Note.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739561
cant wait to see the 1st JB rom
Has anyone else noticed how dead the forums have been since the Google I/O..... I would be so excited to see a JB port......Saving my funds to donate.
So far its going good on the port
I'm just wondering if JB will be ported over to the note.. or at least CM9RC1 lol

Oh Noes! Flash will not be supported on 4.1 adobe announced. They said to uninstall it if you are upgrading because it will be unpredictable and they aren't going to support it

It doesn't hurt to try they just don't want people using it since they won't support it. Basically trials and error .

I think adobe is stupid for not supporting it anymore. Yes, html5 may be the future, but it's not the present. Chrome works for most stuff on my phone, but almost any video that I come across on any tech site or anything else I still find myself copying the link to the stock browser to watch it. It's just stupid when so much of the web still relies on flash. I have no problem with it being phased out, but they're crippling mobile browsing by not supporting mobile anymore. As soon as the next update for desktop flash comes, mobile browsing will suck until html5 is the universal standard, which it currently is nowhere near being. At least with tab syncing between mobile and desktop chrome I'll be able to find anything I need easily on my laptop, but it's still going to be a hassle. Stupid adobe, just stupid.
Back on topic, I'm excited for JB to come to the Note. I'm highly tempted to shell out 350 for a gsm gnex, but I'm sure our awesome devs will have something awesome soon enough. Until then, I'm fully satisfied with what we have already...couldn't ask for more.

Yeah, about the only thing holding me back from buying the gnex is how awesome the note is, and the fact it's likely the next nexus will be out within a year, and my note is definitely more than good enough to tide me over. I just hope Samsung wins the bid for the next one. If they do, I'll be buying the next nexus for sure as well as the note 2. What we really need is the nexus note though, I would throw my wallet and my left nut along with a contact for my firstborn child at google/Samsung for that =]. I just can't quite justify spending 350 on software, with lesser hardware, that we will eventually see for free. If not sooner rather than later.

It was designed to run GB, that's why it was released with GB.

I know it wasn't ICS but seriously, it was a commercial for an Android application that was filmed in freaking SPACE. Yeah, it's a cross-platform app, but this was not only centered around the Android version, but featured our phones exclusively.
I'm not hearing a lot from the Apple fanboys these days, so I'd say it was a pretty big score for us, all told.

Just out of curiosity, what is soon? When you purchased the Note originally, when did you expect it to have ICS?
When I bought my Infuse it came with Froyo. It should have had GB and AT&T stalled for months only to release a broken GB update. Never did I think of returning the Infuse because of that. Now that I have the Note and it is running GB, I am fine with waiting for ICS. Because in all honesty, I will probably end up rooting the device and installing an ICS ROM well before anything comes out from AT&T. The ROMS that were available for the Infuse were awesome and if I were not eligible for an upgrade when I bought my Note, I would still be happily using that device.
I thought it would be updated fairly quickly with the potential the phone has, but at the same time nobody purchased the note to use it and all of a sudden a year later its updated. Don't get me wrong I love android and the note but I have always felt the ball is dropped when it comes to updates and pushing them out.. How is it that they are mentioning "jelly bean" when over 90% of the android devices that are out now don't even have ICS, and with the notes specs it is more than capable of running it if my nexus a could. As far as "soon", and I'm not sure, but possibly if not within my 30 day return period if I decide I don't want to keep it. More than likely I will keep it.

Fair enough, I was trying not to root it because I didn't want to increase the flash counter. I I know there's Odin but I've heard of people using it to flash the stock rom and it increasing their counter and I didn't want to run that risk.

So phone season's coming around and we have a good idea of the phones that will come to sprint. I'm wondering what phones you would get if/when you dump the Evo 3D.
-Galaxy Nexus
-SGSIII
-HTC OneX
If your are going to get a different phone, please tell us which it is in the comments.
Personally, I'd want the Galaxy SIII, but I've had nothing but good experiences with HTC (heh, misspelled THC the first time) so I might go for the OneX. Plus, a lot about the OneX seems pretty good.

Im shocked by the number of iphone supporters. Id never have guessed there were this many. Im interested in all four equally. Mostly because i wont pass judgement till i hold them. Excited as **** though.
If Apple wasn't so obsessed with having their OS all over their products, and the iPhone also had an android version, I would be all over that.
I think iOS is smooth and overall great, but it just feels too limited for me to use. Even after jailbreaking, you still feel like the whole OS is just an app drawer.
Just want something different been with HTC for awhile. It's not like I don't wait for official updates anyway. I feel like sense is always the same just more eye candy added in different versions

won't ever get an iphone. i got an ipad when it first came out (still use it as primary mobile computer) and i constantly find shortcomings. by constantly, i mean every time i use it i say "damn, i wish it could do that. it would be able to if i got an andorid tab" so yeah not getting ios again.
Think I'm going to go with the gnex. I'm very interested in the SIII, but my upgrade is up in June and I highly doubt Sprint will have it ready to go around then
right now its looking like the one x for me......unless I get wind if another powerhouse coming. One x rumored June so I'm going with the best available at that time so one x it is.
I can't really see me going Samsung so sgs3 is probably not an option. I'm liking the s4 specs and camera on the one x is a huge improvement. I see dev being great on that one.

I said it in another thread and I'll say it again. I have a feeling T-Mobile is holding off on the update so the One S can have the spotlight for another month. They probably figured that people would buy it since Ice Cream Sandwich is a big selling point.

These two tie in together. HTC wants to nail down an update schedule that the One S will have ICS for a while, gathering in sales, while the other phones will have to wait. Also, T-Mobile stores list our phone as 1.5 ghz dual-core, they don't really specify that it's produced by Snapdragon or that it is an S3. Clearly, it would look bad that the One S and the Amaze have the same specs in a simpler manner, without going into specifics.
Some of you folks act like your phone is broke or completely ancient because it isn't rocking the current OS.
There is a leak for ICS, so what is the problem? If you want it so bad, download it and be on your merrily happy way. If not, go spend monies you probably don't have on a device that runs on it. Complaining over and over on something you can't control is beyond rhetorical.
Not like T-Mobile has ever been fast with the updates. This is nothing new......be glad if it comes out in June.

My Amaze (bought in December) has multiple issues that have not been resolved on three separate handsets, and half a dozen factory resets. I'm not "whining" about not getting ICS sooner, I'm whining about not getting FIXES after way too long a wait.
The last word I've heard was, "we're working on a fix," "HTC is aware of the problem," while I continue to wait, and wait, and wait. Like the poor refugees in CASABLANCA
I'm willing to wait longer for solid fixes, and (crosses fingers) a replacement of Sense 3.0 with the much-improved 4.0. Frankly, I've gotten tired of factory resets and handset replacements that flush my progress and scores from games that I've paid for. It's not a requirement that my games are intact on a phone, but jeez, it got old after 12 weeks of ownership of this top-tier phone to be told, "don't install any apps, just use the phone as shipped."
I just feel that I've been made to wait through serial postponements while HTC and T-Mobile trumpet a newer, slightly better line of phones. Clearly, people who've already bought an HTC don't get as much respect or thought than the new customers out there. S'okay, if the ICS update arrives and doesn't fix the problems, I'll know what to do. Root, flash, or flip and get another brand. T'is a pity that modern manufacturers would rather disappoint their established customers while trying to attract new customers. It's a model that has destroyed many companies in the past.

ICS leak is NOT running so well....
My radio signals are fluctuating ..... woke up yesterday and my service said 4g with full bars.... but all the apps I tried to run specially facebook told me theres a network connection error.....
my wifi doesn't work.....
Development has pretty much come to a stop. There is no AOSP, sense 4.0 still isnt flawless and other phones are getting further and further ahead.
Jelly Bean and iOS6 are coming out and maybe i should get a new phone.
I have always been a huge android fan despite having a macbook and ipad and I dont think i should get an iphone, right?
Should I get a gnex? Galaxy SIII? What do you guys think?
Thanks!
Get a GNex. My GS3 and Rezound are going on Craigslist and I'm getting one too. Stupid f*cking locked bootloader on the GS3.

Do you think google is gonna release a new nexus soon? Should I wait?
I'd like to think they will release one end of this year or early next year... I'll definitely be buying the next one even if it is isn't flagship material.
Is the rezound pretty much dead? I've tried everything possible and I just cant get a smooth, fast feeling. Any ROM suggestions?
I'm going to wait and see what this "Eris" I've heard so much about does with the Rezound before deciding whether to stay aboard or jump ship. If he does something great and the source happens to come out soon enough, I'm definitely staying. If something happens and the source doesn't come out or his progress hits a huge snag where he quits, I'm probably going to pack my bags and look into going back to Sprint.
Their service really does suck in my area, but at least their price was a lot better. If I do jump ship and get an Evo 4G LTE, I would be interested in it if only to run FreshROM again, just like on my OG Evo. Plus, I sort of miss the small things about the Evo family, like CWM, FreshROM, etc. I know Sprint is finally switching to LTE, and if I had to go back, I would be willing to tough it out with bad signal just a while longer, since it looks like Sprint is actually serious about LTE over WiMAX this time.

What is wrong with everyone?!?!?!?! Development slows and you people put your tail between your legs and downgrade to a worse phone? What's the deal? Are you people rich?
Buy a used nexus and keep the rezound...totally worth it to be able to switch back and forth between two phones whenever you want!

I went with the Dinc4g, so far so good. Clear screen, smooth sense 4, and smaller form factor. Had dinc2 and rezound before, and liked both.

Get a GNex. My GS3 and Rezound are going on Craigslist and I'm getting one too. Stupid f*cking locked bootloader on the GS3.

Thats what I might do!
Nexus is the best value right now considering the GS3 is locked tight.

Do you think the nex is better than the rezound? Yeah its awesome that theyre getting jellybean really soon, but i really like sense and there hardware is pretty much the same
i think any high end android phone is better than the iphone, right?
I've really been considering moving to the nexus since I'm not eligible for my upgrade yet and I can get a used one pretty cheap but I'm still undecided.
The rezound was my first HTC phone and I really love how well built it is compared to Samsung phones but I've had so many problems with it. Plus, with Verizon taking so long to push out updates and practically killing development, it makes the nexus slightly more enticing.
What do you guys think? Should I stick it out with this phone a little bit longer and just hope that the development gets a little better again soon or is it best to just move on now?
Can we at least wait until the end of the month before everyone flips their stuff? We're supposed to get ICS officially this month, and shortly after that HTC should release the ICS kernel source on the HTCDev website. All we need is our fantastic developers to get the RIL working and we'll hopefully be swimming in CM#/AOKP by the end of the year.

Honestly I will say the Nexus is overall better if you're asking my opinion.

Probably on Launch Day.
Nope. The screen will KILL battery life like butter.

Depends on the off contract price... expecting it to be around 7-8 hundred so probably not.

I agree we already have the same phone in 2 other threads. Although I sound a bit like a hippocrit since I made a thread on the Japanese version when they had the dlx thread out.

Nope. The rezound is my last HTC device. They make decent quality stuff, but they refuse to support it. (see tablets) After buying two tabs and getting the shaft, I have made a vow to not buy another HTC product. Not to mention the hoops they make us jump through just to root and rom our phones. They might aswell be dead to me.

Delete it then fine by me. I only saw the butterfly thread and was just trying to provide some information.

Samsungs is easily bypassable. Which is where I plan on going. And it's not like "htc's unlockable" BL does all that much good. If it did we wouldn't need to s-off.

true about samsung. moto i think has garbage hardware... can i ask what trouble you had with the htc tablets? sounds like a pretty bad experience for you to leave the company

Well, it started with the many replacements of the tbolt, then HTC's hard stance against updating their tablets kinda pushed me over the edge, then they updated the flyer/view to broken software and they wont even fix it. Now the Rezound is having touchscreen issues. So I'm just tired of dealing with the problems and the lack of OEM support after purchase. I appreciate the Dev community for the zound, but sammy seems to be stronger in that dept. So I think I am going to give them a shot. I won't touch Moto with a ten foot pole. It may be a bad move, but I'm willing to take that risk after all the issues I have had recently with HTC. So for me, from here on out, it's going to be Nexus, or Samsung.
Samsung is worse.
I love my Rez and I still think of it as probably one of the, if not the most undervalued android phone released to date, but I don't see myself going for yet another carrier exclusive device after this. Of course, reviews might be so great for the DNA that I could change my mind but so far I am not that impressed.
Having said that however, the lack of a LTE capable Nexus 4 kinda limits the options for those looking to upgrade atm and I really cant see myself with a Galaxy S device. Wish Sony would be given a chance at penetrating the US market, they seem to strike a fair balance between corporate dev support, hardware and software quality.
I'll be getting this. The hardware and build quality will be top notch, it can be unlocked through HTCs dev website and be able to load cm. It was between this and the note but son, I am dissapoint at it having the older gen exynos and 720p screen on a 5.5 inch screen.
no, my next phone will be honor 2 or note 2
battery is important factor to me now
i dont think i will ever came back to htc
even im sense-boy
Nah, samsung isn't worse.

Its looking like ill most likely be getting it. I'm thinking ill be getting the DNA and one other new gen phone probably a GSM phone since I have two contracts, one with ATT and one with Verizon.
But I will be more careful than usual with this purchase. I'm currently so broke I can't afford the down payment on a grilled cheese sandwich. But this phone is a priority, and I owe it to the BAMF community. So I've been saving my pennies and will be selling some stuff to raise some funds.

samsungs radios and signal are 10x worse.
in my house, my gs3 gets about 6kbps download on 3g.
my rezound, when its not pulling 4g in my house (which the nexus and GS3 CAN'T), pulls atleast half a meg to a meg per second. doing anything on the gs3 on 3g is terrible, and ridiculously slow. fb app won't even load. rezound loads it no problem. hell, i even tethered 3 tablets to my rezound last night and while we were all browsing at the same time, ti was STILl faster than my gs3
i don't think i'd buy antoher samsung phone ever again, and i really want the DNA...dunno if i wanna fork out 600 bones for it tohugh
