Makes me want to put a custom rom on my note and start to use it again.

[Mr.Bollywood]

If only samsung , sony and htc could come together and make one phone

Make it the best phone ever!

Samsung providing the power (cpu + gpu etc)

Htc providing the system UI and software

And sony providing hardware (phone materials and amazing camera!)

What allyuh tink? Who would buy a phone like dat?

[M_2NR]

Htc providing the system UI and software

no.
I'm quite happy with stock google ui. thank you very much.

I completely forgot about Google ui....I never had a sole stock android powered ui my apologies ..... but otherwise

The more feedback we get we can improve on your design ideas, I Know there are some great developers in this thread so if you guys wanna pitch in also that would be GREATLY APPRECIATED

It does look good. I think its gonna appeal to the older/less tech savvy tablet users. That Mayday feature looks geared just for them.
The downside I'm seeing tho is that Amazon Playstore. These same users are not gonna sideload apps and that play store leaves a lot to be desired...

[dredman1]

X2 on the Mayday feature - that's a step ahead in customer service.

Hopefully it runs smoothly now, seeing they've moved to Jelly Bean 4.2.2. The slow and laggy UI was the major downfall of the Kindle line for me.

[M_2NR]

Man I loving it for myself lol. It has some awesome speakers to. Ideal for my use.

xperia Z da is bess phone they dan.

IS there any noticeable difference between 720p and 1080p on a 5 inch screen to the naked human eye?

I can't see any pixels or faults in my nexus 4 with 720p screen so wondering the purpose of 1080p on these small devices.

Actually the N4 is 768p.

s3 conk out on my last night

just simply cut off (with around 20% battery) and never came back on

charged it all night, nothing
won't boot into any modes
pc doesnt recognize it

tried 2 different batteries, same thing


i wonder how digicel return policy is

hadda go dig up for that receipt

had that problem with my s2. bmobile didnt want to fix it because the chrome trim was scratched

heard digicel has the same policy

So an update to my situation

I gave the dealer that I bought it from, my S3 two weeks ago,they logged it in and gave me a tracking number

I called digicel customer care last week to ask them what going on, they said it takes 14 days to get back a phone, ...no scene

I just call digicel customer care, they say they didn't even get the phone yet, I ask her "so where my phone?who will tell me where my phone is?"
this is how rest of convo went

CSR: " usually you call customer care and we would tell you the status of the phone"
me: "okay...so whats the status"
CSR : "well we didnt receive it yet so probably our courier didn't deliver it yet or the dealer didn't send it"
me: what you mean probably, you have me paying post paid bill for 2 weeks so far and I have no 4g or even any internet service because all they offered me to use was a blackberry 8520 and I didn't take it"
CSR: hold on, let me see if i can find out
*10 minutes later*
CSR: the phone is still at the dealer, they didn't send it out



So i call dealer, dealer say they don't have any phones and they don't know why the CSR would say that because they sent it out to repair two weeks ago.





So..right now...I don't know where my S3 is, waiting on the owner of the dealership to call me back.
I can't even get on like a BUGWAAANAAA because he's a good friend of mine.

Business is business. Fcuk him up. It's your phone.

Had a problem with the red network , i sent a email to the head branch on Maraval Rd. that i will put in the papers the kind of customer service the red network, bigger better network is doing to paying customers and i will have nothing ,no business with them in the future ,less than a day got a reply ,to come in for a replacement ,after that never did business with them.

[Chimera]

on the phone with customer care right now,they refusing to give me warranty center number but are now saying that the tracking says it was "sent to warranty center" but it doesnt show that it was received.
