Motorola Droid Bionic:
The Motorola DROID BIONIC is the first device on Verizon to marry a dual-core processor with 4G LTE connectivity. A 1GHz dual-core chip along with 1GB of DDR2 RAM will power Android 2.3 Gingerbread on the Bionic. The Droid experience is spiced up with apps like ZumoCast which allows you to stream files wirelessly from a computer to the phone. The DROID BIONIC features an 8-megapixel rear camera and a front-facing shooter. But what truly makes the Bionic stand out is its accessories pack - the handset supports Motorola’s WebTop dock and can connect to the LapDock chassis, transforming into a laptop replacement.

Both seem to have great options. Cant believe HTC didn't make the Vigor 4G LTE compatible. I love both and the options but a lover of sense so ill suffer with 3G.

Why would one want to do this? Seems backwards to me.
As to which phone, if the Vigor has LTE I'll go with that. I'm not sure it has been confirmed one way or another yet. Otherwise I'll be looking at the Bionic or the Samsung Galaxy S II.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/09/htc-vigor-hits-the-fcc-with-a-dose-of-verizon-lte/
Verizon's LTE lineup just keeps looking better and better all the time. The oft-rumored HTC Vigor is the latest device to pass through the halls of the FCC whilst sporting Big Red's 4G frequencies, along with a handy dose of CDMA / EVDO. HTC's still keeping an uber-tight lid on all of the details of this phone, however, mandating that all of the juicy secrets remain confidential for now.

I have a Bionic and I am a long time HTC fan. I think that if the Vigor is 4g and the specs hold true to the rumors, you go with the Vigor.
HTC devices typically run a little smoother in a stock rom and usually have very strong dev communities. Motorola probably has better build quality for the most part but HTC does not make Garbage.
I think the faster clock on the processor and the higher screen res tilt it to the Vigor but if any of those specs turn out different, I might reconsider.
The question is, do you want either of these with the Droid/Nexus Prime rumored to be on the way.

Appreciate your input.
I'm going to hold out and see what the actual specs and cost are if I can, but my old phone is really on its way out. Damaged charging port and bad battery that barely holds a charge any more...

HTC has an event on the 20th. Maybe we will hear something then. I imagine on the Prime will follow shortly after that.

O yea lol ..........

I finally got to play with a Bionic the other day. The physical appearance was certainly handsome, but it was thicker than I had expected it would be for the length of time Motorola took to release it. It was almost the same thickness as the slide-out-keyboard equipped Droid 3. When I was done playing with the Bionic, I went over to the Droid 3 and gave it some more time. I decided the D3 is the better of the two. If I was going to have a thick high-end phone, it would have a good reason for being thick...with a slide-out keyboard.

I have the Charge and took a chance on the Bionic and I'm slightly disappointed. I KNOW Quadrant doesn't mean anything, but if I run my Charge on demand with a clock of up to 1400 Mhz on a single core it can get the same score. Plus I like adw launcher vs the new Moto interface. Something about quickly and easily dropping the 3G vs waiting for Juice Defender Beta to do it is nice and the Super AMOLED PLUS screen is pretty bad a**. I will take the Vigor all day, I agree 100% on the community around HTC and their roms. I will also agree that although it is a rumor, FCC ran the Vigor through with LTE.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/09/htc-vigor-hits-the-fcc-with-a-dose-of-verizon-lte/

The biggest thing that I am afraid will be wrong about the specs is the screen. If is the hd resolution it is rumored to be and it is not pentile, I want it. If it is the same as current devices I want it less. Also, if the Prime has ICS and I have to wait until q2 of next year to get it on the Vigor or Bionic, then I may want the Prime much more. Then there is the rumor that Prime will be 4.5" and that may be a deal breaker for me.

What will that do? Does that let you use your home internet for your phone to lessen your data usage?
Also, what about NFC? Do any of these have that? I haven't seen mention of it.

ICS = Ice Cream Sandwich = Unified Platform
I forgot to mention NFC. Good catch. Not on the Bionic and I have not heard any yays or nays on the Vigor or Prime. However if the Prime is a Nexus device or is based on a Nexus device, I think it is safe to assume that NFC will be built in.

Oh! I googled ICS and came up with Internet Connection Sharing.

Specs aside pentile display is enough. I don't understand how a company can make a screen w visible dots, tell people oh that's just pentile matrix and expect people to be happy. That's a terrible reason for a dotted display. I am dotty if it offends some people but I won't / can't pay money for anything that isn't as clear as other screens available. for any reason. Its a disappointment. Especially when superamoled+ is on the way.
Now specs side...there isn't much to compare. Both are nice solid phones but adreno 220 takes the cake. If HTC died in 4 hours I would still buy it and buy the biggest battery i could lol

The pentile display is weird. I could live with it if there were not higher res non pentile displays on the way. It just makes everything look like instead of putting a flat image in place, they put some kind of texturing. It is weird. That and the whole bootloader thing are the only things holding the Bionic back.

I agree with taking the 3g and go with sense the more i use it the more i like it.

Infinity vs. Huawei MediaPad 10 FHD?

I have already purchased Infinity, but its through the Amazon so have still potential to return. The overall company reputation wise ASUS is superior to Huawei but with some of the issues on Infinity (which all seem to be fixable but whether they be fixed is another topic). Is anyone else considering Huawei's Mediapad 10 FHD as alternative?

- This does not use Tegra 3; therefore, no TegraZone for those who wants to play games from TegraZone. However, according to several sites Huawei's quadcore can be up to 30-40% faster than the Tegra 3 with GPU possessing 16 or 18 cores compared to Tegra 3's 12 cores.
- In addition, this is the first android tablet with 2GB of RAM.
- It will have HD screen.
- Downside is 8GB of internal storage. With OS installed I am not sure how much left. Though I saw one site said it has 16 GB space, which is still small but with that I can go as long as it supports 32 or 64 microSD with full speed.
Infinity's performance is most likely restricted by I/O, which may or may not be related to Tegra 3. So better spec CPU/GPU and RAM may not necessary solve the issue. Quite frankly, better performance on CPU/GPU are just speculation and I have not seen official benchmarks (remember GPU on A5X has only 4 cores but superior to the Tegra 3 so #s of cores does not equate to the performance).
My honest hope is that ASUS realize this as potential competition/threat and decides to really fix existing issues on infinity to show what its true power is. Overall, I am truly impressed with infinity where it runs it run extremely smooth without lag, but when I/O issue kicks in that's when things are really noticeable.
What do you all think?

>>have edited the QUIOTED section = for few points to consider::
So lets deal with GENERAL (higher level) topics:
Asus = is generally regarded as "APPLE" of Asia ! Infact if you have the Infinity packing etc ,,, and if ever you have had got ANY APPLE prodcuts , you will see HOW ASUS is 'copying' apple's PACKAGING ... down the the user manual 'envelope' and cables/connectors > let along come up with NEAR APPLE SPECS ( unlike someone esle jsut downright COPYING & and using Apples ha/w parts that they msfger ,,, etc etc
Am no teckie geek (to all teckie > bows .. hail to ya guys...) but I have been using laptops since 1980s ... tablets since the first IPAD ...and so in last 23 yrs haveing travelled 6 Millions ((3 million each with 2 MAJOR airlines FF programs)) > so yes lots of travelling stories of 'broken hardware' when u needed it MOST !!!..........>>>so just some background of where I am based my views >>>>
>>>HowWai (partdon the PUN!) .....often is cheap and nasty is often reffered in manylands as "HAY_WAY" or mind of its OWN!!! so if the specs are to be 'beleived' then at best you will get 2G in place to 3G ,,,, and LTE = based on CHINA TELECOM and maybe not to GSM standards ............blah blah ....(not to mention several CODE/HACK issues thats lots of teckie pple have talked about etc etc....)
>screen = IPS ( seems lot older tech - out of copyright specs is what u get) not the IPS+PLUS
I have been using IPS panel laptops (Thinkpad T60&T61P) since 2007 ... they are shear DELIGHT to view most movies and show PPTS = best best tool to have ... but the IPS+PLUS = like 1000 times better !!
> Cheap PLASTIC backing ( which often distourts and causes HARDWARE failure ( epsecially if u backacker on long trips like me) I prefer a SOLID BACKING ie metal backing (( thats why APPLE and ASUS = did theirs that way!! and SAMSUNG is finding that out fast in their GALAXY ranges)............
Sorry no offence to the ANY of the msfgers , but just some of my personal observations. I have had the ATT tablets from H'ai and after exchanging 12 of them in 6mths , and endless 'tech' issues ( not to mentioned some TECH support tired to do REMOTE LOGIN (without asking for permission first) after i logged in a SUPPORT call..... and finding ' applets/java scripts (to capture my password) ' installed by that guy ----- DONT GIVE ME MUCH comfort ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if not raging MAD !!! you get what you PAY FOR = true here )
So even if you disregard these teckie guy's stupidity ........... ASUS = still rocks in everyway ... Their Specs + Warranty ; Exchange + Tech Support + XDA develeopers acess ............
IMHO ASUS makes it no brainer !! .....:highfive:

>Buying anything from shady chinese company
Also, I've heard bad reviews about Huawei before.

Please guide me were I can read more about IPS+PLUS, cant find any when I google it.

did I get ripped off ?

I bought my first phone last year and it was the Nexus S. I ended up breaking the screen to an unfixable state so when I paid the $100 deductible I was given the Samsung conquer.... The conquer was awful and it gave out only 3 months after I got it. So sprint then gave me the EVO 3D and the guy there acted as if I was getting a "double upgrade" but I'm still wishing I had my nexus. I'm a tech rookie so I was wondering if the sprint guy was right about the EVO 3D being an amazing phone .

The Micheal Hastings and his HTC EVO 3D

[Q] What to buy these days?

I was looking for a dualsim mobile with at least a 5" or even better 5.5" display.
I looked up the G750 from huawei which looks really nice and seems to be powerful. But are there other recommendations from you. The pricing should be at around max 230 - 250 euro.

You can check out the HTC One M8 Dual Sim version, very reliable device with a 5" display. Very crisp.

I looked up the G750 from huawei which looks really nice and seems to be powerful. But are there other recommendations from you. The pricing should be at around max 230 - 250 euro.

I'm just wondering, why are you "Thanking" every post of yours?
I thought maybe its me so I went in and checked around and it's quite obvious that the person thanking you has thanked almost every post you've made.
One of the rules here at XDA is (Do not have multiple accounts, one account is more than enough.)
And what's it with people trying to get thanks, people will thank you when they feel that they have been helped or like something in particular that you did.
Anyways I hope you get what I mean, but I do apologise if I am wrong. But I highly doubt that the account that keeps thanking every post of yours is someone else.

First of all,I only have one account on xda and the guy who is thanking my every post is just a fan or something.He messaged me that he is my biggest fan but I suspect that he is not a real person and is doing this just to gain attention.
Also,I dont get anything even if I get 10,000 thanks than why would I make a fake id for which I dont even have time to thank me on my each and every post.

Lol a fan, yeah right. Well it doesn't bother me. If a mod finds out then they can check the ip's and tell if the accounts the same person.

Nope. It is necessary when you have one number as prepaid number and another one is just for Data (like mailo internet etc.)
It seems the OnePlusOne is just a phone you get when you have an invitation, has no dual sim and it is too expensive. When I Import it. There comes around 22 percent customs and taxes on the price.

Saw a preview of the motorola turbo. Just curious if any ROMs will be available

unfortunately this is a combined thread for all note pro 12.2 it seems.. and the only roms ive noticed have been for the P900 only .. wondering if having a specific one for each of the others like att/vzw/tmo, etc would help.. not sure it would..
not savvy enough to know if it would be possible to port in a sense the p900 ones to make them work with the others like the 905 etc.
From my Fired-up Note Pro 12.2!

This is already a very market-specific device, and then you go buy the variant that is for an even smaller market, hoping there will be ROMS for a device owned by maybe 40 XDA users? Not bloody likely.

p905 has other platform than p900 (snapdragon vs exynos), so porting something between p900 and p905 is quite difficult

Are there any issues with the bootloader being locked or anything like that on the Verizon version?

Oh wow I wish it had more support had no idea they were that different... well at least I have root

Yeah back when I'd use my Verizon galaxy tab 10.1 I would be one of the beta testers for the guy that was developing the kernel for cm 10 support for the tablets in that model line (great dev named Pershoot). He would put in countless hours trying to piece together something that would support all of the variants and I would flash test ROMs over and over again to verify that all features worked. That experience taught me to avoid a US carrier branded android tablet if I wanted to tinker with roms lol. I haven't seen anyone developing like that here yet. It's an impressive commitment developers make.

Hey, we now have a debloated stock ROM and CM11 ROM, both with custom kernels!

P905 ROMS
Okay,
I'm also fed up with waiting for cyanogen to port their ROM to the P905; so I decided to give it a go myself.
I checked the hardware for the P905 and noticed that it is nearly identical to the note 10.1 lte 2014 edition, for which a ROM already exists.

I've tried downloading the ROM that is available for the sm-p605, but it can not simply be flashed on the p905 of course.
Give me some time to look at it and I'll post here as soon as I get it working.
Greets.

Here's my take on roms for the Note Pro....if you're rooted & have Xposed installed you really don't NEED to flash a rom. You can customize the stock rom the way you want for the most part. I know some developers also tweak the performance in their roms but the Note Pro is quite fast stock. What feature do you really need that can not be added with Xposed?

Not much, I guess, I just don't like Samsungs TouchWiz, for starters, I know there are different launchers out there, but I want it gone from my system.
The same goes for those who have the p900, they already have ROM's available, then why shouldn't we, p905 owners?
But thanks for the input though.
