Some pretty awesome devices has been unveiled today by asus. But no qualcomm love for some reason.
I will only consider an Intel device next year. Clovertrail+ is great but not amazing. This post has been edited by arslow: Jun 3 2013, 03:33 PM |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 4 2013, 12:39 AM) Yes but that is beside the point. Strange that Tibu cannot backup the writing data. wonder if there's anyone else here who uses handyNote and have restored successfully before. Can't say for myself as I use Snote which is synced to GDrive  |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 4 2013, 12:58 AM) But syncing to Gdrive does not save the editable S-Note files, does it? The other reason I use HandyNote is also for portability and avoidance of lock in to Samsung. Yup, I'm screwed if i get a T6 or Togari later this year  But it seems htc doesn't want my money, the One has all kinds of quality issues, judging from the XDA general thread. So i guess I'm stuck with the note 3 since Sony will most probably have a small batt on their phablet, all for the 'omnibalance' thing. |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 4 2013, 02:06 AM) ARM A15 been announced for quite a while, and Octa is based on A15. sticking with my Sandy till Skylake launches. Pc tech isn't moving that fast these days, which is good news so we have more budget for mobile devices Unless "Cortex A15" is something quite different? Haswell is only about 10% better than Ivy Bridge, but up to 25% lower power consumption. Wait for the next generation. I'm sticking with my Z77 for now. Maybe the Note 5 could get a nice Intel low power CPU cant wait for a macbook pro like windows laptop to be launched by PC manufacturers  |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 5 2013, 07:22 PM) Hahaha ... is the e-ink screen on the back side or front side cover? How are you going to load stuff on to it? should be behind, it feels like it will either mirror the content on the main screen or show some predefined stuff, I don't think it will be like an extension or something... |

wow s4 ori exynos only 1838 now, price dropping everyday lol, similar to what happened with the note 2 when it was first released. A while after that, the price shot back up to RRP level, and slowly went down again. Hopefully i can tahan from getting the note 3 on launch.Wait for a month

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jun 7 2013, 01:24 AM) Using LTE as my daily broadband, but not using LTE phone. what I meant was it is based on gingerbread. Its very obvious from the UI.btw, don't be surprised if you see a T-mobile phone registered under your gmail in the desktop play store My next phone is going to be LTE enabled. I'm using N7100, non-LTE Note II. Just tried, it works with JB. |

i remember lusting over the N92...good thing my first ever phone was the s2 lol..before that all used phone from someone haha.nokias, motorolas....
btw, i can sell my note 2 for 1.2k and top up 700 for an LTE S4 AP but doing that is dumb as I'll be sacrificing batt life, though I would say the octa has pretty good batt. A friend had close to 48 hours uptime with 4.5 hours SOT, 7 % left. not bad for a standard non phablet smartphone  |

QUOTE(Reventon @ Jun 7 2013, 06:59 PM) If you are going for S4 LTE , then the buying point over Note 2 will be LTE and..? screen!! awesome screen with no pixelation, finally. but still doesn't justify the purchase since batt life is the most important. Without good batt life I would be limiting the potential of these amazing devices. I use my note 2 as a laptop sometimes, yet the battery holds up.. ah, note 2  |

IOS keynote 1AM today. Lets see whats in store for the next IOS. Not expecting a redesign in the way we interact with the system, but just a "theme" redesign. Apple is not the kind of company who likes to radically change stuff. Really hope they have gestures on iphone and ipod rather than just on the ipad. At least, i can then run a non jailbreak build. C'mon apple!!

Lowyat forum is the only website where the full screen chrome capability doesn't work lol. And it was the only website where swiftkey would have issues, but that's history now.
Modern Combat 5, wanna play that on a 6 inch screen! This post has been edited by arslow: Jun 11 2013, 10:26 PM |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 11 2013, 10:29 PM) after flashing please remember to post your feedback on the ROM in the survey to help everyone  History meaning it is no longer a problem? I am still on Chrome v27 now. That was when both chrome and swiftkey 4 were still new. But the full screen bug is there though. |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 12 2013, 03:02 PM) How much is a standard Latte in SG ? watchdog is to monitor 3g usage iinm. I really dont know why it would warn about the video app, I dont think it would ever use any sort of data connection Why freeze? Use Greenify to hibernate it until you use it. Freeze means you can't use it. What is this Watchdog app that keeps alerting you?  |

QUOTE(joytest @ Jun 12 2013, 03:11 PM) His watchdog is not your watchdog apparently wow, didn't know there are so many apps named watchdog I was also thinking the 3G Watchdog. I recall the 3G Watchdog was not very accurate back in GB days. but then again, video player app draining battery? thats new for me lol. So far, the most popular app in BBS for me is viber zzz. ITs not really draining my batt, but its really annoying seeing it at the top of "alarms" and "partial wakelock" every time. |
