    Other Storage (Yes, again I know, but...)

    To add to my rage, I tried deleting some offline maps too.. I tried deleting the Hungary maps (173MB in size), but when I confirm the deletion I get an error. According to the error message I don't have enough space to "download this map" I need 803MB's of free space to "download" the map. I...

    Other Storage (Yes, again I know, but...)

    I've failed my update twice now, losing up to at least 1.5GB. I can't go hard resetting my phone, this is ridiculous, I was also updating my Halo to the latest version. On the second attempt (after uninstalling many games) I thought I nailed it with 750MB of free space (as it requires 716MB)...

    Myth? Amoled screens do light up black pixels and not turn them off as believed. Try test...

    I noticed this to, it has not much to do with the screen itself. The data sent to the screen just has some 'color' information in it. It isn't 100%, more of a firmware problem or something. My old Galaxy SII would show 100% black in the night, no light to be seen when it's on in full black...

    ATIV S works with LTE on T-Mo, speed test pic included

    After extensive searching I'm 99.99% certain that there is NO different hardware for either versions. How do I know? Well I've found a secret menu in the phone that you can get to by ##3282#, after that you can get into another 'dialer' by pressing the back button once. Then when I enter *#8888#...

    Why is the web browsing experience so sub-par on Windows Phone 8?

    IE10 is crazy fast on WP8. As a web developer having to deal with a lot of 'responsive' design I get to test most of the mobile browsers. I seem to have most problems with iOS, the Safari render engine is sub-par compared to the Chrome browser on Android or IE10 on WP8. Since Chrome on iOS uses...

    ATIV S works with LTE on T-Mo, speed test pic included

    I'm no hardware tech junkie, but other than the SOC that needs to support it, does an antenna make a difference in supporting 4G? When you look at the new Bluetooth 4.0 announcement for Nokia Lumia phones, it would seem that much of it is actually the firmware activating the features. But I'm...

    ATIV S works with LTE on T-Mo, speed test pic included

    Do you know if this SGH-T899M differs from any other version, in case of hardware. Because if the hardware isn't really different from the other versions, it must be a software limitation. I've always been wondering why Samsung did not include 4G in every model. The Snapdragon chip they used...

    ATIV S works with LTE on T-Mo, speed test pic included

    What version number are your phones? I mean, it doesn't really support 4G LTE does it? Atleast I don't see a 4G option in the settings menu with my ATIV S...
