[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hellosunnydays:
So I heard good things about Wrapsol Ultra and ordered it last Thursday. It got here Tuesday and I went to install it. However, when I opened the package, I realized that it was not cut to cover the entire screen. There is a large cutout for the speaker and right corner where the camera and sensors are. There was absolutely no information about that on the wrapsol.com product page so I was surprised. It is the same cut as the removable film (printed with Galaxy Nexus) that came on my Verizon phone.

I decided to not install it for now and think about either returning it or selling it. Has anyone else bought the Ultra for their SGN and liked it despite the too large (for me) cutout area?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hockey529:
I noticed the cutout after watching a video on YouTube. I was looking into this protector to replace the one I have now and I don't know if I could live with that much glass exposed. Also, I emailed wrapsol if they would revise the cut and they said they were not looking at any revisions.

This SGIII is likely a mid spring release.

I'll likely be snatching this up anyway....using concurrently til Note2 breaks sigh....cause, well, the Note IS my lifetime thing now!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] stefan.buddle:
Only real advantage I see so far is the quad core, anything anyone else able to find any other real advantages?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DPMAce:
Damn, I haven't even had the note for a month yet. And I consider myself an early adopter.

If I can wait a couple of months, or until next year, maybe I can buy the note 3.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
So true! Seems we can't keep up since they launch internationally! Can't wait to see what comes out at MWC...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
SGS III...Well looks like I won;t be getting a Note now....waiting is a good thing sometimes..although Notes should be going cheap by August,
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
I am sure the GNote will become and remain the Samsung flagship product with respect to specs. Surely the GNote II will out spec the SGSIII...;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Livewings:
Samsung has no right to announce Note 2 until I say so. Maybe in 2 years time after my contract ended :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DPMAce:
That's alright. I'm salty now. But my note will hold me over until the note 5 comes out. Then I'll be bragging about that one like crazy.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tbong777:
The best part about the release of a Note2 is Note Ones will be selling cheap in the Summer before release. Make a great addition/backup to the SGS III.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sky|ined:
Once you go 5.3 inches, you can't go back. I would only consider a super speedy mind blowing note 2
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
+1 ! Even thought I have a skyrocket, I dread switching back from my GNote.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rockky:
So true. It's amazing how the 'huge' 5.6" Nexus looks undoable to me!

I'm a big camera freak...so the impending resolution increase looks sweet to me. This'll be huge with the SGS2 crew and Samsung'll followup in style with the Note2! You know the stylus and entire handwriting tech will get jacked too.

Sweet stuff to look forward to for Note owners!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] naimmkassim:
Has anyone cross their mind sammy would produce SG mini Note? Lol..it suddenly cross my mind same function like our Note, only smaller screen ;P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PurpleMelbourne:
I've wondered that too. SGS3 with a stylus... and how about a qwerty keyboard too ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] darkinners:
Honestly couldn't careless about sgs 3 . I came from sgs 2 but man, can't go back with anything less than 5.3" now lol, size does matter haha.

Will wait until note 2 come out and hope will have better screen better battery :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zamboney:
Agree completely. Only a note 2 release would get me excited. No way I'm going back to puny penless phones.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smackdownn:
after i got my note..a 4.3" phone looks like a nokia 5800 lol :P afterall size does matter..iam definitely waiting for note 2..no way going back to small screen :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Lanarix:
Same here, only I came from a 3.5" screen, so it was an even bigger gap.

Still, going back to something smaller than 5.3" would definitely be a no-go.

It's the same with tv's and monitors.. Once you're used to a high resolution, or a larger screen, switching back to something even a bit smaller will irritate you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
I'm not saying I'm defo getting a note 2, I love my note and loved my dell streak before it, I love a big screen. However I'm still under the impression that I could still go bigger the note easily fits in my pocket, another inch maybe even 2 if there was no bezel at all on the front of the phone, ics on screen buttons have got to Be the reason behind this so they can have phones with just screen. Who knows what will happen in a years time!
[HTC EVO 3D] Deleted member 3020814:
Can't get it to read. I read that the newest Olympus ROM coupled with the newest goodman kernel would work but it does nothing. The flash drive doesn't even light up. Tried a powered USB hub and it only lights for a second but the phone won't read it. Both the ROM and kernel list it as a feature and it does nothing. Also tried an ICS build with and without the goodman ROM and no success. Every USB host thread is dead just wondering if anyone had gotten it to work.
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
i use mine all the time
[HTC EVO 3D] Deleted member 3020814:
Awesome what ROM and kernel do you use? Is there anything special you had to do for it work or is it plug and play?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Sicraven6:
Anyway to get it to work on the Htc amaze? Thanks in advance!
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Is it not compatible? Ask the developer.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
It should work fine, the amaze just isn't on the list of devices they will allow to download it from the market.. the only way to get it is by illegitimate means(or read the last paragraph).

Contacting the developer is totally pointless, this is the worst company to deal with in any way.. I spent $15 in game and never got what I paid for, months went by, multiple times they contacted me.. but never got the refund no matter what I did. I eventually gave up since I put in more work than it was worth for the $

I would recommend buying it with another compatible device(if you have one), copying the apk to the amaze(I hope I don't get in trouble, it isn't pirating if you paid), and it should work fine. I may have had to edit my build.prop, I can't remember. That is how I was playing it on my nook color(from my vibrant). But don't spend a dime in game unless you just don't want the money. Really, I would say avoid the game altogether, it is cool for a minute, but FAR from a product worth paying monthly for.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Chadworth66:
Downloaded but not working

I changed my build prop and it appeared on the market. Bought, installed completly, logged in created character, selected server, but then it tells me their's an update. Takes me to market and no update for the game. Weird cause theirs no compatibility issues, but ive been talking to Customer Service and they've been helping. Till they fix dont try the hack apk(does the same) or download it from market, hoping they officially release for our phone...ridiculous they dont.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dafluke24:
it's where you can attach a lanyard or phone charm. If you take off the battery cover, you can see the little post where you put the loop of the charm around

I wondered that same thing when I got mine, and I thought "no fuggin way would they add a lanyard hole, must be another mic... "

Funny thing, I might actually use this, I keep my handset in a pouch/pocket/thingy on the strap of my messenger bag, and it's a tight fit, might make it easier to pull it out..., and might make me feel better about using it when I ride, strap around my wrist so I don't drop it...

Thank you

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
So I know there are several threads on this, some by me, but this time the issue is very weird.

So i'm on my third phone now, previous 2 had the USB port going wacky. Phone thinking it was charging when it wasn't plugged in, computer not recognizing phone anymore etc.

So problem has now started again on phone number three. Weird thing is this time the phone seems to not have this problem all day. Problem starts at night, so i'm assuming maybe a battery percentage left triggers it. The other weird aspect of this is that right before the phone starts bugging out, (charging, uncharging, and back, over and over while not plugged in), the car mode symbol appears in the status bar, and starts flashing on and off. If I am fast enough to catch it,I can deactivate car mode. When all this starts happening, phone also starts to get stuck and freezes up. This issue is really getting annoying. Love this phone but this is starting to make me crazy. Yes I got the phones at different stores. What do I uninstall to just get rid of car mode, considering I never use it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
So, instead of using your existing thread, you decided to start yet another one for the same issue? And people wonder why the search doesn't work like it should. :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
good old miami son taking time out of his non existent life to not give any helpful info, but just to be a wanna be moderator. You were obnoxious and annoying in the captivate forums and I see you picked right up over here. Boy am I excited you got a new phone. Anyone else have any helpful advice?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
Seems to be whatever USB cable you are using or the way you carry this phone is the problem. No way you get 3 phones the same exact problem in a row. FYI, Samsung Focus and Captivate had the similar problem in the past. Car mode is just the result of your USB port problem instead of the cause of it. What happens is something shorted out or bridged the pins of the USB port to make the phone think it is conneted to a car dock (IIRC, car dock uses a 300k resistor to bridge two pins). Some ppl with Focus or Captivate reported success by blowing out the dirt in the USB port.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
As well as cleaning the USB port with an alcohol swab
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
I'm enjoying my retirement.:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
The only USB cable I've used with all of them is the one they come with. I've used the alcohol cleaning method as well as blowing in the port, hopefully getting out any thing causing issue. This seems to help temporarily. The strangest part of all this to me is with this latest phone, I have zero problems all day. When I lay down in bed for the night and start using the phone is when it starts to happen. My battery life can range from 60%-30% at that time, so I don't know if that is a connection to this issue. Maybe the phone is possessed. It always seems to take about 2-3 weeks for this problem to arise. I always have the phone in my pocket, so I guess something must be happening with that. Luckily with this latest one, I bought the best buy insurance, it's just after awhile they're gonna start wondering why this keeps happening to me, and if it's my fault. The USB port problems can sometimes make it difficult/impossible to flash back to stock.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
Useless responses are no better than useless threads imo.

To the OP. The likelihood of that many bad phones in a row with the exact same problem is pretty rare. Take a look at anything that's remained consistent through all the phones, and try replacing that item(s).

It's not useless if it keeps him or someone else from doing the same thing.:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
+1 for replacing the cord and power brick. Alot less quality is put into them compared to the phone. Just make sure not to buy cheap. And never plug your phone into anything cheap (i.e. car radio usb port, off brand charger, ect) That's not saying everything else is bad. But why risk it. Especially when you can buy brand name chargers off ebay for $5 or less.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
I've only used the supplied USB cord, every time. Now even when my phone isn't confused if it's charging or not, the battery life is now awful. 5-6% per hour drain. Used to be 1-2%. No changes made by me. Also the phone has become super laggy at times. Feel like i'm using my cappy again. My apologies for starting this post. I knew I would most likely get crap for it, but my issue is very strange, IMO, compared to mine and others previous experiences. I also figured if I added to an old post, it would go unnoticed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] canecbr600:
5% an hours not bad. Your saying ur phone used to last 2 to 4 days (100-200hours) on a single charge normal use? No exaggeration?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
If he is getting 5% per hour drain at idle, yes that is horrible battery life. SGS2 is fairly easily capable of 1% per hour idle drain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kingnba6:
i had this same problem. it wasnt with the port but it was with the usb cables i was using. but those cables would charge the phone fine but not allow it to get a connection with the computer. swapped cables and works fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
You've used the same cord with all 3? or a new cord with each one?

It sounds like you've got a boatload of issues going on. Personally i'd do a wipe and try a fresh install without installing any additional stuff to be sure the hardware is fine.. Once you've verified that start adding apps to see if it was a specific one causing the issue. (there's other ways to troubleshoot this, but a fresh wipe is the most straight forward and simple IMO)

%5/hr idle is not good, at all. Last night my phone dropped %5 over 9 hours idle. how is 2-4 days equal to 100-200 hrs? where i'm from 2-4 days = 48-96 hrs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] canecbr600:
I understand that, hence why I said under normal use, also he doesn't say at idle, and talks about it being laggy n the same statement...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
i suppose.

However he said before it was 1-2 percent an hour. That's pretty much impossible while being used, only get numbers like that while not in use (idle). Even %5 an hour while being used isn't likely to happen. Guess i just figured it had to be in ref to idle drain.

lol guess we just wait to see :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] canecbr600:
I gotcha, all good. I guess I assume a phone just doesn't sit there at idle......., I know mine doesn't! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rolex81:
It is useless because no matter how many times people are told to use search function they never do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
My battery drain stats were based off of idle, sitting in my pocket time. Stranger issues keep coming up. Newest one is, (try to make this as quick as possible) I've always charged my phone, every night when I go to bed, no matter what the percentage is (although it's almost always <30-40% at that time). When I take the phone off the charger in the morning, it drains the 5+% per hour/idle. Ive resorted to now taking my charger to work with me, which I've never had to do before. After being at work for a few hours, I plug my phone in and get it back into the 90ish% range. After this second charge, the phone's battery drain goes back to the "sipping" of 1-2% idle. The phone still seems to be laggy after this however. Example of this is when I'm scrolling through screens, (using launcher pro) the screen will constantly get stuck in the transition between app pages. This never happened before these USB issues. Also, tonight when I hooked up my phone to my pc to get pics, and vids off of it (planning on replacing it tomorrow at best buy) it would only charge it. It would not connect to the computer. However, when I put the phone in download mode to flash back to stock, the phone was recognized by odin, and I was luckily able to flash back to stock. (coming from the 2.3.4 unnamed). After flashing stock, phone still was not recognized by computer, just charging. Yes debugging was checked.

Yes, I use the new cord that comes with each of the new replacement phones. Not the same cord over the three phones.

Didn't do a search, cuz as I stated in my OP, I knew there were threads out there about this, one by me, already. This is why miami son gave me **** to begin with. Although I completely understand why he would, I later explained that 1. I'm not a big fan of his (everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I'm sure outside this forum he's a great guy), and 2. that I felt these newest issues were different from before, not only, but including the fact that this has happened to me THREE times now, and that I didn't want my issues to go unnoticed.

the first time I took one of these phones back to best buy, the geek squad guy told me it was probably because I wasn't using the stock launcher. At first, I thought it was BS, but now I'm wondering. If this is this case, wouldn't the problem arise immediately, instead of 2-4 weeks after getting the phone. I always use launcher pro.

Hope this answers some of the recent questions about my battery use, lack of searching the forum, and cord use. Probably going to best buy tomorrow to get a new phone, or see what they say. I'm thinking I might just put tape over the usb port at this point. This is all so frustrating because other than this issue, I love this phone. Unfortunately, it's now gotten to the point whenever I hear that da doonk sound our phone makes when plugged in (best way I could describe it), my heart skips a beat, and I think OH SH*T! Man I've grown to hate that sound! Thanks for all the helpful advice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Miami_Son:
Don't be so sure.:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cdub5:
I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
All that being said, I'd guess you'll have the same problem with the next phone. Odds of 3 phones being faulty with the same thing is pretty low, especially if it's not a widely known issue.If it's not a piece of hardware that is faulty, I'd then lean towards an app causing it. Have you tried doing a wipe and just running stock for a while to see if it acts up? (well not "stock" i guess, as the stock ROM isn't too great,, but just bare bones ROM only, no apps)
