Install CM7. Its the rightmost toggle in the notification bar. Or get quick settings! Quote:

Quick settings and settings under CM7. The only setting which one cannot change is the bootup vibration for CM7. Quote:

Please suggest me a good android at under 20K.
My requirements in the order of priority:
1. Good camera (MP doesn't matter. auto focus is a must)
2. Sound quality (should be same or better than my X10 mini pro)
3. GPS
I would be happier if i can get anything with a slide out qwerty keypad.
Get your suggestions coming!  |
Desire Z - then OC it. Sound quality i dont know but it has a keypad. Android has a severe dearth of qwerty phones :( Quote:

The Exynos 4210 uses ARM's Mali-400 MP for its GPU[2] which is a change from continuing to use PowerVR's GPU which was featured in the previous Samsung Galaxy S.
The Exynos 4210, unlike Tegra 2, features support for ARM's SIMD engine (Media Processing Engine, a.k.a NEON instructions) and this may have a significant performance advantage in some cases over Tegra 2 in critical performance situations such as accelerated decoding for multiple multimedia codecs and formats (e.g., On2's VP6/7/8 or Real formats). |
Yes, but I was basing on reports like Samsung Galaxy SII (S2): Exynos 4210 VS Tegra 2 – Which Version Will Be Better | Inspired Geek - its not that cutrate a processor that warrants the tone of the original quote which i replied to. Do keep in mind that Tegra2's been around almost a year before Exynos - which is an eon in this market! Quote:

This was partly the reason why they were chosen as the reference SoC for Honeycomb.
Anyway the Exynos SoC by Samsung is more advanced than Tegra 2 and its performance is better as well, it is in fact Tegra 2 which is the low cost option. Exynos is in short supply and thats why they have resorted to Tegra 2 in the S II for some markets. |
That does not in any way lend itself to the assertion that tegra2 is considerably inferior (i.e worth reconsidering purchase of tegra2 phone in india) or that its cheaper. My assertion is that an inhouse product of samsung will definitely be cheaper than what they will buy from outside. Quote:

Will check today evening to find out if it is red or green lens.
Guys let me know of any good accessory shop in anna nagar, need to buy:
1) Screen guard (it might be unnecessary on a gorilla glass, but i have heard of scratches happening on defy)
2) Pouch(I am inclined towards a blackberry pouch, but will it fit in.)
3) i suppose OS is installed in default memory card, what happens when i slot in a 16g memory card- noob question, kindly excuse. |
Mine was 100% charged - less than 3 sec of charging required.
1. Do it - doesnt matter. Get the X10's screen cover cut. or the samsung galaxy ace. You wont get an OEM one so don't even try.
2. Even I have the same pouch (for the Curve 3G)
3. Nothing is there in the memory card. Don't bother at all. just replace bindaas! Infact - trade it in, if you will get even a single image of gandhi in it!
PS: Letsbuy now rocks. Ordered a thermometer midday on the 30th, got it midday today! |
