Hijacking ANOTHER thread, Mike? gee guy, you are gonna get yourself banned or something!

Edit: I don't speak German, but it sounded to me like he said he can't see a d*** thing...

I'm I have no qualms about the display quality of the LTEvo. I was amazed by the screen and still am.

In daylight auto brightness does its thing and you can see what your doing.

The brighter the screen is the faster your going to drain battery though


I took 3 years of German but couldn't understand him. I couldn't see anything on that to screen though

I'm not averse to thread hijacking, but back on topic. This thing is beautiful!!!!

 

[ocnbrze]

but how does it handle in sunlight? and just curious is it rooted yet?

 

[youdoofus]

Sunlight is just fine, and if it gets outta hand, you can invert the colors. I ran the exploit last night, but it's still s-on for some reason...

I still haven't upgraded and I'm going through the stage of wanting this phone again.

What's the hold ?!? I continue to be impressed with my nexus. But to keep this thread on topic, how is battery life on your s3?

love my tvo can't imagine the horror of life with out it. *chills* S3 is great from what I have heard and as far as screen in sunlight It could be viewable to others but to me I can't see anyways.

No S-off hmmm that's interesting. So tell me what is life like with S-On? It has been so long since I've experienced such blasphemy that I almost forgot that there is life with S-On *more chills*

No idea why doofs phone would still show s-on but at least there are no locked bootloaders on the Samsung devices. With that said the hardware on all these phones is incredible and we are lucky to have such great choices.

 

[youdoofus]

battery life is over 24 hrs with same usage as the evo on which id get about 30, but it was rooted and kerneled to hell and back. The s-on thing is buggin me... I re downloaded the .tar file and installed again via odin which gave me the success message (again). I tried running it on a different usb cable, and diff usb port. No dice. I left my blackberry usb cable at work, so ill grab that tomorrow and try it to see if the bberry cable makes any difference. In the meantime, i guess i could try to run odin on one of my roomies computers (hes got 3) and see if its my compy thats causing the issue. Who knows at this point cuz as brent stated, the bootloader isnt locked, so theres no conceivable reason for the exploit to not take... ugh LoL oh, the device status shows modified now instead of normal, so i guess thats progress LoL!!!
