Anyway to go back to the 959? I'm on 890. I've noticed some differences in another d3 in the house running the 959. Id like to see if its the software version.

Took the pic of mine with the 959 one so the camera blue tint may b making it look worse than it is. So I did it differently. U can see the difference. Mine is on the right. And sorry about that blank post..fudged the buttons haha

My replacement Droid 3 has a much brighter screen on it then my old one did.
Silly question, have you checked brightness settings?

Yup. I actually sent my replacement back, and kept my original which has a very tight slider. The replacements screen was blurry, and dull. Moto needs more quality control on the screens. I cant believe the varying differences.
Yeah both on auto brightness. But the difference is huge no matter what. The other looks much better in all conditions..oh well.

The screens are very different. I've noticed 2 drastically different types. One is blue tinted, and you can't see the grid pattern, but it ghosts badly. There's a more accurate screen with yellow-ish whites and it ghosts far less, but you can see an odd grid pattern and lines on the screen. My first 3 had the blue tinted screen. My 4th one right now has a very nice screen-it ghosts far less and colors are more accurate. But, everything has a noticeable grid pattern over it.
Interesting thank you

I like my nexus too, but wouldn't be mad if we could get those camera functions on the nexus. I am sure that my wife would like the dual camera shot.
What are the specs of the s4?

Only cool thing i liked about it was the size of it, the brilliant looking screen and the cool colours and textures of the phone

Samsung's approach: Pack as many gimmicky features into crappy feeling hardware and crappy looking ui. yuck! Could they make the phone look anymore cheaper. And that touchwiz ui... WOW does it look crappy.

I don't get why all the hate for the SGS4 is starting. I mean, honestly, it looks pretty damn good. 441ppi, excellent hardware (software is fine for most people)
This is the first time I HAVEN'T wanted to upgrade. Went ape**** over the SGS3 and SGN2.... SGS4, not so much. Feeling pretty damn happy with my Nexus 4.

agreed. It looks like a good phone with some cool features. I like my phone better, but this is probably going to be great for all of those sgs2 users that are about to come off contract.
Mainly camera functions. Maybe Samsung should focus more of their energy into camera.

Happens in every forum. Everybody loves the phone they have and will defend it ruthlessly. When another, newer phone comes out people bash it. Just how it is. The sgs4 is a nice phone. Its not a let down or disappointment. Its just not a nexus. Nexus gets first updates and amazing development. That's what matters to me the most.

After the nightmare of dealing with Samsung and ODIN I vowed NEVER to own a Samsung Phone again. SGS4 looks like more of the same as the SGS3 and as someone called it the SGS3s That is exactly Samsung's strategy. They are copying Apple even more in this regard. They will keep the SGS3 going for another year as the more "Affordable" SGS like they were doing with the SGS2 recently. Notice all the Deep discounts for the SGS3 lately? I can't wait to get my self all on the Nexus Line (as well as my Wife). Tired of all these bad Custom UIs and Carrier Hostage crises.
saw the live event. Its nothing revolutionary as Galaxy S3 was. Most of event focused on gimmick features. It has some cool features but nothing wowed me .

I think a lot of people were expecting something big like galaxy s3 but it felt like all over iPhone 4S when everyone was expecting iPhone 5.

Samsung hit the nail by putting ipad 4 powervr 533mhz oc gpu and octo core on international s4 . the us version has adreno gpu same as nexus 4.This will smoked any mobile devices until tegra 4 and qualcomm 800 released.
you all know which one i am getting.
Looks like not all N3 have the same display temps. I compared 2 different ones and one has a whiter white than the other. Is this the case or just me?

Not sure how to check that. Is there a setting or just a visual comparison?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes, it's possible. Also, if one is more yellow, it could also be the glue between the display and glass hasn't cured yet.

I guess just a visual but I prefer a whiter white than a off white display. I was hoping there's a setting but didn't see one.
Hi,
I made a X-Ray image from my Google Nexus 5 @ 75kV. 8mA, three different contrast settings.
NFC, Qi charge coil, accu, cameras, speaker... readily identifiable.
Furthermore the high absorbtion of the ceramic power button and volume rocker.
Have fun!

Nice. The brighter one cut on the screen area would be a cool wallpaper.

Hmm, I'm thinking something different... I was looking for something suitable to use as a drive icon, for when the phone is plugged in to the computer. I think this might be it!
This is really cool - and yeah, some high-res images for wallpapers would be grand.
Even better, use it as a background for the N5 cropped to the right resolutions.
OK, CT scan next
I will check tomorrow if I it is possible to take a picture in higher resolution.

Hi Guys,
here an other one, combinated two pictures with a bit more sharpness.
A higher resolution is not possible with the hardware I get here, sorry for that! I think i could record a new image playing around with the camera frequency (=focus level) but i dont want to x-ray my phone 20 times to get an image which is a little bit less blurred.
regards
Thx. Makes for a great background.

No. The S5 still has Samsung's Touchwiz monstrosity and it still looks a bit cheap. The camera does look amazing, I'll give it that. But after having the Moto X running (mostly) stock Android, I can't imagine going back to a skin like Touchwiz.
Whenever I had an s4 I just hit it with cm, we'll have to see if developers can use the fingerprint hardware
Sent from my XT1056 using xda app-developers app
No. It has TouchJizz, ugly dimpled back, 5.1" screen, and physical navigation buttons.
The battery size is attractive, I must admit.
F*** the s5.... I agree with the new z tho that things nice but I'd rather keep my X
Sent from my XT1058 using Tapatalk
My initial impression of it is not good, but I'll wait for reviews and a chance to play with one before making final judgement.
The Z2 blows the S5 out of the water.
Nothing Samsung has tempts me (awful company).
No

What he said.
Are you kidding? It's bigger and uglier than the s4, the stock ROM is supposedly 8gb, there's no innovation, the fingerprint scanner is basically unusable with one handed usage, still uses a pentile screen, new touchwiz looks as bad if not worse than the old one etc.

Good luck with Knox.
Not even in the least. If anything, a terrible phone like that makes me love my X even more.
It reminds me of a Note.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
I don't see anything coming out or announced that would make me leave my x this year.
I would be more tempted to check out a new iPhone than anything Samsung is putting out these days. I just can't stand the look of their phones anymore. I had an S3 and the S5 looks pretty much the same in terms of design. same dumb home button, same obnoxious backlit buttons, same clusterfudge of features that do nothing for me and never will.
Its gonna take a really really great phone to get me to throw away my custom made, beautiful piece of technology.
