[OFF TOPIC LOUNGE] A place to keep every thing Dirty - Galaxy S III General

So after seeing all the wars b/w competing manufacturers and other useless rants on our beloved S3 Forum i just thought why not give you a place just for it..
Enjoy the space and keep on the rant on.
And make sure you keep the Lounge floor clean but do make it dirty

i actually had a few questions, this seems like a good place to throw them
we get these USB adapters, and a wall outlet converter now instead of proper chargers, will they still charge as fast? i feel like theres a weaker connection thru a usb plug
and this ones for any audiophiles out there, which app do you find the best for downloading music? ive tried a few, and none of them seem to be that great for me

who cares get the wireless charging kit but i heard the charging time for the travel adapter is 5.5 hours and it runs under 6volts the usb runs at 4volts so i would guess 6hours to charge through usb also the wireless charging is said to be quicker than the travel adapter

Since this place is for ranting, to me audiophiles are people who purchase their music and support the artists, not download them illegally. Unless you mean legal purchase. Various websites has various artists so you inevitably have to have multiple accounts. And if you were an audiophile as you said, you would only buy lossless audio, which few online place offers.

I guess I can say that the more I check the one X section the more I want to get a GS3 alrdy.
Seeing (pre-release) HTC fans like hamdiir rage about QC/Build.Q is priceless

some people will pouncing over here after seeing the thread title.
do people still have the energy to talk about the same????
anyway let the brigades fire!!

Ok, here we go:
I think all those HOaXers that come to defend their poor purchase in our forum, honor our new baby even more.
On the other hand, there is a saying: "Why should an oak tree care, when a pig rubs it's back on it."

Neat fact about Zune HD + Evo

Was kind of worried about going away on vacation coming up because I won't be taking my laptop with me and I only have a USB charger for my Zune HD. Well I thought that maybe the wall charger for the Evo could work with the Zune HD and well it does. Just letting you all know just in case you find your selves in a similar situation. (Reason I'm taking my Zune HD is because I want a dedicated MP3 player when I'm out snowboarding and use my Evo just for phone calls and the such.)
yes all usb wall adapter will charge usb devices. If it is USB output it has to five volts the rate at which it charges it determined by the charger about how many millamps its going to charge at

Yeah I didn't quite expect it to work, honestly. I have pretty crappy luck when it comes to things like this. I was just expecting my Zune to not charge.
<Troll_Mode>
Sorry... there is nothing neat about this factoid. The USB spec defines the size/shape of the USB plug as well as the power limits (5v).

No, it won't. The EVO is just like a Nissan GT-R... each transmission is made for each engine so your charger only works with your EVO.

One would think so. I was unable to charge my razr v9m with the evo charger. Kept saying unable to charge. I think most newer devices are not as picky however.

Really guys? This a community. Look at post 2. It's really not that hard. Simple really, constructive conversation goes a long way. If thats not the conversation you all wanna have then don't troll/post?
Forums are archived and keywords can be found by a search engine =P
I'm sure you guys are familiar.Should anyone google say "zune hd charger evo" because they have the same question, its now answered. So just back off and try to be a little nicer. No I'm not trying to be the thread police here or whatever you might call me, XDA just isn't what it used to be. And its unfortunate to watch it go down a path like that.

A Nuukey bluetooth keyboard for the iPhone; I had seen one of these before online and thought if it could be some way retrofitted onto another phone. It was a
pretty lucky find in that I was able to inspect it hands on. I thought since I had blown all my money anyways, so why not try it. Here is what I have so far:

It's the one thing that I'm missing from my old HTC 8125 and 8525.
Ugh playing roms on those things was infinitely more fun when I had buttons to press.
Edit: Also, if anyone stumbles upon a keyboard that connects via usb rather than over Bluetooth, please share.
this is fantastic. now what you should do is pick up an extra battery cover and outfit the sliding joint to it. i wonder how hard that would be. i have been trying to figure out this exact mod for months

Youtube vid shows it on, slight modification necessary however. Definitely think I might do this once I have some money.
I think a USB keyboard in this form factor would be fantastic, less battery consumer, and it shouldn't be so hard with the USB-host support, I'm right?
Why we don't suggest it to Nuu?

I kind of like this idea, plus then you could use it in places where bluetooth might be prohibited. Also makes your phone less open having bluetooth off.

Well it's been two days and there is some bad news after sliding it back and forth the springs gave out and there is too much pressure being put on the slide plate causing it to bend. I'm going to have to modify how its mounted before releasing instructions; I dont want anyone wasting their time or money.

Here’s the Kicker I’ve done this 7 times throughout my 1 year 7months into contract and still no questions asked I even got offered a nexus S hahah no thanks but if your ever in a rut or your phone looking ugly scratched up dinged up. Short circuit the hell out of it and tell them your phone was charging then it died and won’t turn back on (mega Lame!) 3 days later you'll have a new reconditioned phone and if you’re lucky and your model is discontinued you’ll get the next avail suitable upgrade...

Sure there's plenty more games that do the same. I'm not a gamer myself, and my oldest has my old SGS for her games, but the kiddy-game market is growing. Apologies for my 11-post jibe, it was unnecessary.

Well, let's see... on three occasions that I fornicated with my wife, three offspring came out nine months later. I was there during all three of said occasions, and delivered the middle offspring (the gamer) myself.
So pretty sure, yes.
Bumping my own thread, I'm a bad man.
Your replies were very witty, and I laughed incessantly.
However, I'm right and you're all wrong. All these lavasoft games - Restaurant/Farm/Zoo Story really do drain battery quickly. A combo of wifi, bright colours and eager progeny is hardly conducive to prolonged battery life. They certainly drain it quicker than my boy's other games (e.g., Cut The Rope, Angry Birds).
And as a riposte to the slackjawed troglodyte quoted below:

If I would have kids, I wouldn't want them to surf the Internet alone. There's too much stuff out there inappropriate for children.
My kids would get an old phone, which you can only use for talking and sending text messages and for gaming a Nintendo DS.
Think about this instead of battery live! The cheapest solution isn't always the best

I don't let them surf the net alone, under any circumstances. My middle kid is 7, and he's not getting a mobile before he's 10 (there's 6 year olds where I live tooled up with mobiles, which is ridiculous).
Any online games he plays are on my phone, always with me present, and no invites/social interaction without me vetting first. He has a DS and a Wii, and I don't allow online play with them.

Enough with the negativity on this phone

I am sick and tired of reading negative comments/pages on this phone. I do not own this phone as of yet but I know for a fact this isn't a piece of junk. It is the best smartphone HTC has put out as of yet and its hands down argubally one of the best smartphone out now. Can we please share what the positives are about this phone ?? What we LIKE and LOVE. I want to read about what makes this phone the ONE rather then scaring people off with the negativity, especially the ones who are hesitant on buy this phone.

He still has a point, the negativity in this forum is ******* annoying. especially since its from those who don't own the phone

The only reason why these forums are so negative is because not everyone is going to write about the positives because they have nothing to gain. When people write about negatives, they are searching for answers or advice if that makes sense. There is only a small herd that is bashing the phone but the only reason why it seems everyone is doing it is because they are the most vocal

I am sick and tired of reading negative comments/pages on this phone. I do not own this phone as of yet but I know for a fact this isn't a piece of junk. It is the best smartphone HTC has put out as of yet and its hands down argubally one of the best smartphone out now. Can we please share what the positives are about this phone ?? What we LIKE and LOVE. I want to read about what makes this phone the ONE rather then scaring people off with the negativity, especially the ones who are hesitant on buy this phone.

Ok well it has a great screen, its unbelievably sharp. I personally could see the pixels on a Retina, or SAMOLED screen at about 300DPI, but i really cannot seem them on this screen. You do not see aliasing on any angles at all, ever.
The TV remote function is great, it works, from a distance, which i didnt think it would. The TV app is pretty good to.
The sound output is very nice. Typical Beats (a bit of muddy bass), but if you like that, its really nice. The bundled headphones seem to be Beats headphones in a cheaper housing. Its LOUD, both from the stereo speakers and the headphones, something very few phones are.
It seems to playback almost any type of file at any bit-rate, as long as you use a third party app. My S3 wouldnt play a lot of the stuff ive tried on the One.
Build quality issues aside, it is solidly made. It feels like a sold piece of metal. No flex, no creaks, nothing.
The camera is very good at focusing and great in low light. Dont worry to much about it being 4MP unless you tend to zoom in or crop images a lot.
Its a bit early to comment on speed. It feels slow compared to the S3 at doing most things, but its on early firmware, its not fair to compare to a well developed year old unit. I remember being underwhelmed by the S3 at first.
Expect it lol! SGS4 is coming samsung is probably spending a fortune for thousands of users to bash the HTC One all over the internet.
Even youtube got owned by samsung.. Imagine I searched the word HTC One in the search bar then I get a Galaxy 4 promo video on the top of the search results lol! So much for accurate results eh?

Every new phone has issues. The s4 will have plenty. This is where you write about the issues

The ads come based on your search history. Maybe you've been reading about S4 a bit lately. I do not get that ad on my screen
I'm also sick of Samsung ans apple trolls ranting on about how bad the one is. The phone is great and I won't let them spoil it for me

Same here, I got this phone because it's the one I wanted, for me it's head and shoulders above anything that's out, and I'd most definitely choose it over the s4, why because it's what I wanted in a phone and no amount of people bashing it will change my opinion of it. They just get ignored.

Nah, I haven't search Samsung's product in all my youtube usage history, and yet Samsung note 2 or S4 pops out when I looking for "New One" or "Padfone 2(which I own now)". Soooooo annoying.
But hey , I don't think all the blames are bad or what, some of them make sense. Well, some of them are just, hmm, random complaints from nowhere.

Nice try but nope
Why would I search s4? lol I'd rather get IPhone 4 than galaxy s4 since I am a design freak lol!
People bashing the Htc one are here for a reason. They are scared. They know its the best phone out there and a phone that will hurt Samsung .
There's two parts to it. The first part are people with issues that want the phone. These are the people that are within their right to be complaining. Then you have the people that are just here to bash the phone to try and justify their intended purchasing of the S4. Those people need to be banned.
Sorry guys, this thread has no place in a device forum.
