thinking of buying an idea blade - Blade General

Hi guys! I'm thinking of buying an idea blade and I really care about the battery life. So is anyone here getting around ~2 days. I don't use the phone much, except for wifi ~1hr/day and very less calls/messages.
thanks in advance
whyzee

you're probably pushing 2 days. I charge mine every night and it's usually at about 50-55% so 2 days could be done if it really is minimal use.
I also think this phone is getting very outdated now, I'd buy something else

For a little more money you could the Galaxy Ace or the Motorola Defy+. Way better phones

I reckon from my experience that u should go up for galaxy y. Here idea blade costs 5999 rs but a grand is all u need to change.
Plus blade's battery life is very poor especially if u connect to wifi

Yeah but overall the Y is kinda sad. 3" screen, no CyanogenMod, TouchWiz

no love for the A2107?

Lenovo has launched 2 new tablets, the 2107 & the 2109
the 2107 is a dual sim, 3G 7 inch tablet running ICS. its very good for the price tag and fairs well in full time daily use.
i've bought one last week but can't find any root / roms for it.
is there a chance to see the tablet on xda anytime soon?
I am also trying to root it but nothing available

That really sucks the a2107 needs jellybean. It would be much better but lenovo only cares about themselves. If it has jelly bean it would compete with the nexus 7. After all the a2107 lacks aquad cor tegra 3 processor and jellybean. Anyone want to add to the list? Don't get me wrong its a great tablet (I got it for Christmas)

I have a nexus 7 also and this lenovo is pretty impressive I think is well worth the Price, its a better tablet than what the Price tag would make you think this baby is a steal deal. Now if they can fix the crappy SRS sound in headphones I'll be happy.

Hum... I've bought this tablet in Spain, and it's working ok. It fits my pocket and is able to connect to my company's VPN, so, ok. But i'm missing a pair of functions:
1) phone app. The com.android.phone doesn't exists. Is there any way to install it so i can make and receive calls with the device. Of course using headset, it's ridiculous having a 7'' device next to ear.... It will be useful for avoiding the need of carrying a mobile to attend duty calls and the tablet for connections... it would be enough with 1 device (tablet)
2) Radio; sometimes i'm just making a trip and i'd like to listen the soccer's match, or something. if tablet has the FM chip, why should i use the data connection just to retrieve a radio stream? I mean, it's on the air, there's no need to spend bandwidth (and potentially money, if my quote is exceeded) yto hear it.
They both are optional things, but comfortable things. I woud like to do it without rooting tab (so NO CWM, nor custom ROM), so guarantee is still working. So... any APK or so?
Notes: I've tried some Play store's apps for the radio, but they aren't working
Thanks in advance
right!
Tomorrow will arrive my a2107-h and i will try some downloaded roms, i think almost one can enable radio and voice call, i's all we need, this power is lost inside!
Last update give no help to the radio module? all site speak about an internal antenna...
I'd try the tablet out for a week before you do anything, the sound suck's with headphones on. I returned mine after 2 weeks i couldn't take the crappy wifi issues and YouTube buffering constantly and the forcloses cause of low ram. I spent extra and got a nexus 7, glad i did.

Switching from Note I to Note II

I'm seriously planning to buy a Note II and I currently own a Note I.
However, currently I see there are almost all new features that are available in Note II are now available for Note I (based on N7000XXLS7 rom update), will buying this now will really be a worthy upgrade?
Considering only on features and not on ROM Capacity , Processor type and clock speed?
Any comments would greatly appreciated.

While original note is an amazing phone, just for battery life is well worth the upgrade. I used to average 4 hrs of screen on time on my note but on note 2 i average 7 hrs. Throw in hardware upgrade and JB and its an easy decision.

Agree completely. If you like your note1, you'll love note2. I thought note1 was reall, really good. Note2 is the best phone I've ever laid hands on.
I think the upgrade is debateable.
I made the leap. The power, speed, camera, features,.. amazing.
The 1... is still good.

Note 1 is was and still is a great phone but even with jb it still wont be as good as note2 only thing I could tell the difference was going to 16/9 screen I could telk it was just a bit narrower but after a few days soin forgot plus the screen on the gn2 soon made me forget

You won't regret the upgrade. Trust me. I've yet to hear a person who has regretted buying the note 2.
Having said that, the one disadvantage of the note 2 over the note 1 is the inability to move apps to sd card in the note 2.

The thing you'll like best with the GN 2 is peace of mind. Forget about battery life, just use it... and use it... and use it again...
Battery Life

Narrower design is more pocketable - when i ride my motorcycle, i can't tell it's there.
overall- i'm happy with the upgrade over my old GN1
To be honest, I regret buying the note 1 and sold it after a month. However, note 2 is way better and think I am going to stick with it for a very long time. Best phone right now imoh. So go for it man.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I'm finding the note 2 much easier to hold in 1 hand, and the speed is pretty awesome. Although I'm using cm10 so the rest if the Samsung features didn't really lure me in.

I'm thinking about it as well. Had my Note on EBay today and took it down as I have JB now and the prices will be dropping soon. Costco has the S3 for 129.00 . Black Friday deals could be worth waiting for. I don't see the advantage of the International version anymore except for the FM. Tough decesion. But the longer I wait the better idea I will have on which TW Rom will take the lead as well

I am 100% happy with my Note II and I think anyone who buys one is unlikely to be disappointed, however I didn't get that "blown away" feeling that I got when I first switched from SGSII to the original Note.
I Broke the screen on my Note I & have not got around to fixing it, so mine needed replacing anyway, before I broke the Note I, I absolutely loved it and feel it was probably the best smartphone I'd ever used ( and I have used plenty) I feel the Note II is for all intents and purposes the same phone as the Note I with a few tweaks, and since I prefer to run CM10 I have to say I barely notice the differences between the two - this is not a slur against the Note II , more praise for the Note I.
Maybe if you are a fan of Touchwiz & all the S-pen stuff then its a different story, but my experience is like an iPhone upgrade - simply more of the same with a few tweaks.
In daily use there is little difference for me, personally. My gf has the 1 now, and i am jealous of her extra 80 pixels.

Well for 70 euros less it's not actually a bad deal. Only bummer is you'll get 8 GB of internal storage...but the biggest issue will be the lack of development.
I think the biggest issue on this device is the broadcom gpu... its horrible,there arent any hd games optimised for it. I dont care about the lack of the gorilla glass,and a 8 gb micro sd card is 8 euro,the other things are kindly the same as on the original one.

S4 worth the price?

Hey guys!
I am planning to buy a HTC One or a S4. (Oh another of those comparisons)
Well, the One is sold at SGD 488 (USD 385) for the 32 GB version, while the S4 (GT-I9505) is sold at SGD 578 (USD 457) for the 16 GB version.
Is the S4 really worth the extra price and lesser storage space?
I only have 8gb SD cards around, I care for heavy gaming like MC4 and GTA VC and good ROMs. I also take pictures and videos quite often, and I DO care for a SUPERSMOOTH UI and GREAT BATTERY LIFE.
Which should I get? Thanks in advance.

I don't own the HTC One, but I just hate its ugly face with the 2 ugly speakers on the top and on the bottom. Even its build quality seems to be what some people call "metal Premium"(that always make me laugh), its performance and its uni body design just doesn't appeal me. However it seems that its screen and its camera are very good.
Battery wise you can always get a second battery and a dock. This way you'll always have a second fully charged battery with the Samsung.
With the HTC, you'll have to rely on the charge of a single battery and/or frequent chargings.

I have had the Nexus 4 too and in smoothness and speed when opening apps and widgets it is much faster than the S4. But then the N4 doesn`t have a 7GB rom + features But i missed some very usefull features offered by Samsung that i like to use and after a while i found the Nexus 4 a bit boaring.So overall i would say that the S4 is not fully worth the price of 650 euro`s that for 369 euro`s the Nexus 4 is a very good phone and offers the latest updates by Google.

I run all my games flawlessly, a little lag happens rarely sometime, but globaly, it runs everything perfectly. I have the i9500 octacore. I don't try the i9505 one. From all the review and test I saw, i9505 suffer from little lag using Air features and has less fps in games. I tried Zombiewood(gameloft) on i9505 and i9500, when there are a lot of zombies who appear, the i9505 become really laggy whereas the i9500 still run flawlessly.
Well I am quite satisfied with mine.. I must say that it is fast enough and even faster with custom roms and kernels...
Camera is pretty good... Not in the dark but then again does not matter much
Quality of video is great and the sound is okay..
I have had an HTC before and it was okay but so sadly built...
The screen here is great... I have no problems with mine

3D performance.. i have not had any games that lag or anything...which one did you go for ?
I went for the S4, decided that I needed the 13 MP camera. Can we change the speed of animation to be faster (when opening apps, switchong between apps, etc) to be like the One's? I hate the speed of the S4, makes the phone look slow when it is not.
