[Galaxy S III Accessories] downwiththebanksters:
I have a touchstone for my old Pre and it is really great. So sad as WebOS was/is great, and the touchstone was one of the greatest features (but perhaps because battery life was so bad) because it was just so easy and convenient to charge. I would love to try WebOS on S2 hardware!

I wonder if I can use my Pre (minus)Touchstone to charge an S3? It seems from the pic there isn't a magnetic holder, gravity holds it in a tray? Dieter Bohn modded his gnex to work on his touchstone, but he had to upgrade the magnets I read, so that may be a solution here. Also regardless of how it "sticks" to the charging mat/touchstone, is the power always going to flow or are there different frequency cycles, or magnetic field "wattage" differences that would make a touchstone inductive charging field incompatible with this Sammy (or Qi etc.) system? I'm assuming that a magnetic field is a magnetic field is a magnetic field so I should be able to put my Pre on a Sammy charger, or an S3 on a Touchstone? Can anyone speak cogently to the actual technical issues involved in doing this?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Isadora:
I have a touchstone for my Touchpad so would love to be able to use it too with the S3. What annoys me is that whilst HP shipped all their units with a back cover that could be used on the touchstone, Samsung doesn't. This obviously means that even if the TS works with the S3, I still need to buy the replacement cover (which is included in the wireless kit, don't know if they will be sold separately)

Yeh there will be. See the site below. They also say they will be in consumer devices before the end of the year.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] downwiththebanksters:
well as a start to test of compatibility.....do you have a Pre? Does your Touchstone charge anything other than what it was designed for?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] funb0b:
Its a good point, unfortunately I don't have a pre or know anyone with one, may be worth an ask in the pre forums?

I wonder if Samsungs back cover will work with my powermat and

The post above links to a good thread on this. The mat linked to is not as elegant a solution as the Touchstone. The mod looks easy to use old Pre back covers to swap into the S3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] frango9000:
sorry i come in late, i just got my S3 and im really interested in this, i come from an extensive use of powermat... with devices i dont own anymore and i really hope i could use my 3 device mat for my wifes s3 and mine and ocasonally a tablet. any info on this??

hiw abot a device that detects the direction where the target device is and focus an energy induction beam to the device to minimize the wasted energy?

I'm pretty sure a few users have confirmed that their S3's wireless charging is working with PowerMats. I'd dig it up for you but its buried within one of the 6 or 7 wireless charging threads.

Found this link on ebay Palm Pre working with SG III they are selling it for 69.90 which seems a bit high...

I priced out the parts needed

Touchstone cradle 5.50

ac plug 4.50

micro USB cable 3.99

Wireless Back 34.99

________________________

Total 48.98

Also was reading this review on youtube LINK and as long as the wireless charger is (Ie duracell powermat) is Qi compatible it should work ok...

I think those run just 35.00.

So

Power mat 35.00

GIII Back 34.99

_________________________

Total 69.99

So save a little money on the touchstone, but a little more flexibility on the powermat. I think I would pay the extra and go for the the powermat option.

Wireless alm

I bought 1 Palm Pixi back door and 1 Palm Touchstone charger base and cable (no need for wall charger as you have one from GS3) for a grand total of $12.00 on ebay from 3 different sellers - all brand spanking new. just search ebay...I like the Palm setup better because the touchstone charging base is small, has an angle and superb. Used the original GS3 backdoor and connected via copper foil/strip: the only way to avoid not fitting tight...also avoids soldering !!!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nickel911:
Great idea... I wonder if the voltage going thru the touchstone from the Galaxy charger is comparable to what the Palm put out..... Would you mind posting a pic of your handy work?

Thanks!

My Sensation fell on a concrete floor and busted the screen. The phone still works but the screen is only held in place by the screen protector and it needs to be fixed.

I've been researching repair services and there are none locally that I trust. I found one on the internet that seems okay, but I can't find any reviews for them http://www.werepaircellphones.com/htc-repair-service/htc-sensation-repair/

Has anyone used these guys before and does anyone have any recommendation for a USA based repair service?

I've flashed an incorrect rom onto my phone (standard GSM RAZR, on T-Mobile uk) and I'm really confused about which fastboot files I need to flash to return it to factory default.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banes:
Hey guys, I did a search for my issue, but found no relevant solutions.

I am using a much older ROM, Gingerblur 3.1 with v 1.83 and I just bought a new lapdock. The funny thing is, all the instructions came in Spanish, but I don't think that would necessarily be the issue. The weird thing is when I open it with phone plugged in, it does not go into lapdock mode, but on the phone I get prompted to go into Webtop or multimedia mode. I go into Webtop mode and it looks like how the lapdock mode should look, however, I can not use the touchpad or a USB mouse that I plugged in. However, on the phone screen itself, it shows a mouse pad essentially, and option to go to keyboard, so it thinks its only plugged in via HDMI to a screen only. The funny thing is though, if I do not turn the phone screen on by pressing the power button, it says No Signal Input: HDMI, which implies that it knows a phone is connected via USB since that screen does not come up when the phone is plugged in. I am also not using a case so I know it is firmly plugged in with no obstructions. Someone else had the same issue with a different ROM in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1598132&page=2

Please help! Is this a ROM issue? I was planning to switch over to the NottachTrix4G ROM, but it seems the same issue may be occurring there. I think I still have 30 days to return it, but I would love to resolve the issue. Any thanks would be much appreciated.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I had this problem. You buy from onesaleaday? Sent mine to Motorola for repair. Defective USB connector. Thread is in accessories forum. Moto couldn't find serial number in their system, but they took care of me.

Probably your documentation is in Brazilian Portuguese.......not Spanish. Look same but not same.

It is not a ROM issue.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banes:
It is in Spanish for sure, I can read Spanish. I bought it on Amazon from some reseller who had only one in stock from Bakersfield CA, which is a 2 hour drive from me. Thought it was a good idea. Should I return it? Or can Motorolla help me out with a product I did not buy from them?

I really feel like the USB is not defective, or that it at least is detecting my USB connection since it prompts the message about NO HDMI cable in place, which cannot be achieved unless the phone is plugged in. Obviously you can't test with just the USB connection alone and no HDMI, but my IT spidey senses are tingling. Could you link me to the thread you were referring to? I was looking for it but I could not find it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Mine was doing exact same thing. There is a known issue where connectors, especially USB in lapdock do not stick out far enough to make a good connection. I called Motorola, they arranged overnight shipping both ways, no problems. Had it back in a week fully functional.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:

As an added note for anyone else, the shipping is handled better if you have them set up the RMA over the phone, and do not set it up yourself online.

I sent mine to Motorola as well and got it back with a message that there was not a problem with the device. I was running stock Atrix when I first tested. Nottachtrix didn't work for me either.

I was under the assumption that the Lapdock was simply a HDMI monitor and USB Host. Have since installed CM10 (epinter) and still experiencing the same issue.

**Ninja Edit: Yes I'm a noob

I connect my lapdock and it works. After a few minutes the display still works but the keyboard/trackpad are unresponsive. Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teshgnex:
Just wanted to post up another suspected failure - i just received my atrix(Hebrew edition) lapdock from Ben's Outlet - no charging on the usb port with my bionic (dismantled the dock location to connect the wires before modifying the casing)

I'm guessing after all the reading in the forums I've done that the only option is to warranty claim with Motorola ?

I also noticed i have no serial sticker on the bottom(but do have the hologram and another model number sticker) - I'll have to check the box for the serial unless there's another way to get the serial number?

Thanks for posting up this discussion! Saved me hours of banging my head against a wall, i really wish the thing was working though...
[HTC One X] cdcooperuk:
SYMPTOM: can't see any mobile networks

BACKGROUND: I've been using htc one x for a month now. Initially on three, but their signal was unusable at home, so sim-unlocked and switched a couple of weeks ago to giffgaff ( a virtual network on top of the UK o2 network).

All has been fine, until today. I sent a few texts & calls in the morning, and mobile data was working. Since then, I can't see any mobile network.

wifi is fine.

Search Networks pops up "Error while searching for networks" and finds none.

No software changes of any sort since last successful call. No changes at all today, at least until I tried to diagnose the problem.

Running stock rom, with the WW update of a couple of weeks ago (1.28.771.9.CL56522 release-keys) -- neither S-OFF nor unlocked bootloader.

Nothing obvious to me in the normal or radio logcat logs.

The only thing I did after the last successful call was to run sensorly to try and map a trip. I've used this before without any problems. It got no connection but I thought nothing of that. I've since uninstalled it just in case it could somehow be interfering with the radio.

THINGS I'VE TRIED:

No, the airplane mode isn't on, and mobile is. I've toggled airplane from settings and power switch, many times

recreated the APN

checked other phones - yes there are a number of networks visible

tried the original o2 sim - same problem

safe mode

cold boot

reboot, reboot, reboot

obviously I haven't pulled the battery...

turned off wifi, in case it was somehow interfering

HTC diagnostic tool

factory reset

confirmed imei is not blocked

Any ideas? Bearing in mind that I'm looking for something which can happen spontaneously.

Interestingly, while writing this I've just noticed that Baseband version shows as Unknown. That worries me - is it possible that my radio partition has spontaneously corrupted itself?

I did speak to 02 support - they said to take it into a shop for warranty repair. I don't want to try a custom ROM just yet -- not when I might have to use the warranty. But is there any way to force it to reinstall the stock rom (preferably not involving windows)?
[HTC One X] junguit:
I have the same problem as well and flashing custom roms did not solve it for me. But for me even the IMEI number is shown as UNKNOWN...I haven't done anything special to get this issue, one day when I woke up the phone could not connect to any network.

I have tried a lot of different methods but with no success. I don't think we can do anything about the baseband without S-OFF.
[HTC One X] shadowboy23:
If a hard reset fails, then it's time to think about returning the unit. Either get a refund or get it replaced.
[HTC One X] droid_does:
This may be irrelevant; but I've had this happen to me on my GNexus. I solved it by going back to stock and it just fixed itself overnight.....
[HTC One X] lambert.pierre:
