Does the LiveView Calendar work with ICS or is it only Gingerbread & lower that can connect with the Calendar?

Roland
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rolandh:
I've been using my LiveView with my Arc S since I fully charged it, and with the LiveView Charm app installed and started on the Arc S I've only had connection dropouts when I've strayed to far away from my phone. The lack of compatability with ICS on the Plugin front is a pain, but since the LiveView has a decent digital Watch screensaver and as far as I can tell all the stock Plugins that come with the LiveView work, I know to the All events tile, Text messages tile, Facebook tile & Find phone tile works. Not too sure about the Missed calls tile as I've not had any missed walls since I've been using the LiveView, the only tile that doesn't seem to be working is the Calendar tile.

Missed calls and everything stock works. Its only plugins from play store that dont work
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khalidb86:
i have Xperia Arc S and live view watch and the connection keep drop when not using the watch on ICS 4.04 ,even when the watch in the range of the mobile Bluetooth .

its ugly thing that you need to re-establish connection every half hour , it make the watch kind of useless object .
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkanwar:
Ive purchased an app called liveview manager and it kinda prevents the drop issue. I mean its once every couple of hours even then its very rare

Wat jje says is clean the usb port ,by a small cloth or but with damp cleaning liquid so tht if any debris is there it will go,for proper conectivity.an do wat I said cause even I haf tht prblm once.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holyguyz:
I experienced this before. Power button intermittent not functioning; not able to power off the device; reboot after power off and also with/without charging situation. I did try to clean the connectivity, factory reset and even flashed to latest firmware but also the same. As a result, I found that it was a hardware problem on my SGS2. Now no more problem after replaced to another new unit.

Hope yours just a software problem. 1st you might want try to factory reset, just to make sure the power button working as usual. 2nd option, go for complicated part is flash/update it to the latest firmware.

Mostly, 1st option will solve most of the problem. Hope this help. Cheers!

Consider re-flashing your ROM, unless you solve it by clearing Dalvik Cache
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfmessier:
I recently got my tablet back to factory default, and rooted it. I then installed Rom Manager to easily install the latest CM9 ROM for the Galaxy Tab 10.1. The installation went fine, until it restarted. I got this android character on the skateboard with a blue warp field around it, for now an hour or so.

I tried to actually reboot the tablet, and it restarted this again.

Is there a more stable version of CM9 tht I should install, ot should I stick to the latest official version 3.2 of Android from Samsung ? I don't mind re-factory-setting my tablet again, but I want something that is perhaps better than the stock Android from Samsung.

Thanks :-)

Thanks

I actually did a full wipe as well. Since then, i found that the first line of that config file needs to be removed and it then installs fine, and starts OK. However, some apps just do not work, such as the App Store. I was back to another firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
I think the new processor will be amazing but I can't say that I'm liking the rounded edges. This thing is borderline pebble-shaped.

It will be interesting to see where they take the design to with the Note 2, to say the least :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tenderchkn:
Does this mean no 1080p/1200p for the Note 2? :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thephoneguyusa:
Looks like the gnexus

sent from my phone/tablet thingy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dhoang:
I dont like the rounded edges either. The only thing i like about the phone is the new processor. And they finally add the light notification, which is good. Besides those two things, Im not impressed. Everything else is just software update, which the note will receive sooner or later. I will stick with the note for a while.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sgt_Bilbo:
My curiosity is how long it'll take for the Dev's to pull the good parts out of the GSIII's ROM and port them to the Note...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
I like the bigger screen, but wouldn't trade my note for it.

Dislike the round edges

Like the bigger battery

Like the gorilla glass 2

Dislike that the ram didn't change

Dislike that the screen didn't change much other then the size

Like the new smart stay
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cholepuree1:
Yeah, Im definitely curious about how SMART it's going to be, but like many have said before - the SGS3 is mostly software, which will eventually come to the note at some point. And if S-pen functionality can be kept too, then the Note with SGS3 SW will be all we'll need tilll the note 2 comes out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryanbmw51:
I had been eagerly anticipating a device that would be worth switching to from the note because (lets be honest) who doesn't love a new phone? But I can honestly say that this one wont do it for me. I guess if there was a way to have quad core and lte living together then I might consider it but I just love the note so much. I know it sounds crazy but I just don't see them coming out with anything (other than maybe the note 2) that would be worth switching to from my current note. This is sad because I love getting new phones so I guess it bittersweet for me.

Love the note. If you're not on seraphim it might be time take a look in the mirror and make sure you get your priorities straightened out...lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] djxcee:
Would definitely love to try it. The bigger battery interests me.

But I will most likely wait for the note 2. Can't live without my 5"+ display haha.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] p51d007:
What about the rumor that the USA version won't get a quad core processor?

4.8" is close, but I don't think I could go back to a less than 5" screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] the2rrell:
i may just buy the international version of the s3 and wait for the Note 2 for my next LTE upgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ambrosios:
i think the US version of the S3 won't have a exynos processor......don't think its compatible with LTE modems........they may end up using the snapdragon 4core processor instead due the LTE compatibility
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
I agree, this phone isn't a game changer by any stretch of the imagination. It's basically the HTC one with a removable battery and MicroSD port. It is pretty, but so is my note. The quad core isn't that impressive anymore because of this:

http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/tsmc-ramps-28nm-arm-cortex-a9-chip-to-3-1ghz/

imagine a phone that can process that freaking fast! We'll see where the processor wars go. The note keeps me happy, I can wait.

Also if you want a little more in depth look, here's android centrals' post on the S3. Though I like AC in general, I think they were really humping samsung's leg when they wrote it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
The LTE version is coming to the USA in June. It doesn't say whether or not it'll be stripped of quad core.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kornklown69:
im ready to see how the American carriers change it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ambrosios:
it will probably be the same chip that is currently in the HTC One X
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Killemalll:
Hardware wise I wish only the Note had the quad core. Software wise i'm not impressed. I'm confident CM9 will own them all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] supac:
That is what i was thinking too. The note with quad core with 2gb of ram or atleast a true 1gb of ram to use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
how big is the battery?

but since its less than 5", i have a hard time even considering getting it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dhoang:
2100mah I believe. Not too bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Unlike most of you, I actually like the rounded shape a lot. The back of the Note is rounded in a similar way, and I like that, but having the front edges rounded? I hope the Note 2 has that. Other than that one feature though, the phone is unappealing to me, as I really don't like the corners being rounded so much. The edges are nice to have rounded, but the corners of the device should be fairly tight radius to minimize bezel space at the top and bottom of the phone. The other cool features are all software which could be ported potentially, so none of that makes me want to trade my Note for a smaller screen. Also, quad core is pointless to me right now.

Looks like I'm for sure waiting until the Note 2!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TheMrRoxtar:
Very disappointed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] flintdragon:
Same here. I admit I was getting a little envious as the announcement approached but now, I'm loving the little Note more!

I still have a little interest in maybe downgrading to the GN purely to get latest OS in a more timely manner.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] murphy_31047:
I love my note I really won't be able to down grade in size so no upgrade for me until a faster 5.3 or note 2. And I have really grown accustomed to whipping out the stylus when my phone comes out my pocket and I use it except when lying down (ie stylus lower right hand screen issues) I'm a big dude and 4.3ers are very small to me now, and phones that are 4ers are just frakkin pathetic. Once full ics comes out for my note I won't need an upgrade until a 1080p phone is out hopefully the note 2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jimmer411:
Was never interested to begin with, now seeing the specs I'm still not impressed. The design looks like a cheap low end feature phone with those rounded edges.

I can't help but feel like innovation is being pushed aside in favor of profit with these incremental upgrades. Once the Atrix and lg dual core phones came out everyone else released dual core phones as flagships, then refreshed their existing lineup with dual cores.

Now it's quad cores with batteries closer to 2000mah instead of the normal 1300-1500mah of before. My bet is that we won't see a phone with more than 1gb of ram and 2ghz clockspeed before Christmas.

If the rest of the galaxy refresh has specs similar to these it looks like I will be holding onto the note until late 2013 or beyond unless someone can come up with a phone that gets gets at least double the battery life I currently get out of my note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] samomamo:
Next for me is Optimus 4X looks much better
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hegemytouch:
The sgs3 looks sick but I wouldn't trade my note for it...

Galaxy Note
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
Though the style isn't for me, I would have bought it if the specs really sang to me like the note did. I just really can't get behind them, in fact I couldn't get behind any of the Galaxies until the note rolled around and I was like 0.o what is this pretty thing? *commence drooling* *reads it's a galaxy* and said, "I'll be damned, that's a good phone, why was I so hard headed about the galaxies?"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] andrawer:
I like it a lot.

The rounded shape is very nice (as opposed to the square nokia 900 windows phone), bigger battery sweet, super fast camera, excellent screen size.

What's not to like?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Dr. Evo:
I think the phone is a huge letdown ... not that I was interested in it, anyway. I am bonded with my Galaxy Note.

But, we've been hearing so many rumors and seeing so many 'leaked' photos of this thing ... all of which have been superior to the final product. Where's the full-1080p HD screen everyone was betting their lives on??? Where's the beautiful design we've been seeing in all of the fake photos??? The quad core doesn't mean much to me, because from what I've heard, there aren't many apps (or things I'd really be interested in) that can make good use of quad-core technology in a cell phone, at this point. In a PC World write-up, it was stated, "...the overall design is a bit disappointing ... I think Samsung needs to be a bit bolder with the design of its phones to challenge the iPhone in that area, as well," said Francisco Jeronimo, research manager at IDC.

What I do like about the GS III, is the different internal memory options. Why does the U.S. Note only get 16GB but the GS III gets 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB??? That doesn't include expandability to 64GB external. I mean, I suppose if I were that pressed, I could just purchase a 128GB microSD card and slap it in my GNote. I have a 64GB microSD card, now. It's plenty of room, but if I wanted the option for more internal memory, I'm screwed. I also like the smart face detection, that uses the phones front-facing camera to scan your eyes and if it detects movement, it won't shutoff your screen. I think I could really find that handy.

Anyway, PC World did a nice write-up of the phone. According to them, the U.S. LTE version will in fact receive a quad core processor. Apparently, Samsung has found the technology to make quad core compatible on an LTE network. I've included a link to the article.

Samsung Launched Galaxy S III Smartphone

In the end, I have to admit I was a bit jealous of all of the rumors I was hearing about the GS III, but after seeing it ... I'm no longer jealous. My Note looks better, has better screen res, and the 5.3" screen is unbeatable. I can wait for the other software upgrades via ICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gotshoaib:
Same like most ppl here, don't like round edges. And Samsung always launching great stuff dissapointed my expectations of 12 MP camera, 2 gb Ram.

And after using Note , won't be able to use small screen.

I think we all will have to wait till Note 2 where Samsung merges S3 features in our Note with 2 gig of Ram.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jsfLip:
When can we roughly expect a Note 2? I want to upgrade my GS1. Yes, I am a newb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] eviltango:
LOL I thought it that it was going to wow everyone. I they had a year to work on it and it looks the same as the galaxy s 1. The s2 looks better. Display is not super amoled +. I like the software features but I thought they were going to implement wireless charging. I was going to get this phone for my gf but now I'm disappointed. I like more and more the note and from having a galaxy s 1 previously to going to the note I will not get another S series untill the NOTE 2. Please Samsung don't disappoint us with the note 2 as for the s3 step it up!

Btw I'm not bashing on it. I think is a good phone but like everyone else I had huge expectations on this phone

And just like that LG announces the new optimus phone with 2gb of ram :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schrochem:
I personally think its quite ugly....

The color 'white' isn't a very pleasant shade.

I like the shape, thinness and size of the note and wouldn't trade it for that thing despite the specs. IMHO
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] songyop:
Here's a good video that introduces GS-3 quite well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=D683O1YeozY#!

Likes:

- Fast Exynos Quad Core (avg Quadrant score of 5600~)

- 4.8 inch HD SuperAMOLED screen (not as good as our Note screen but still good)

- Improved camera functions (Best photo, Burst mode and still photo during video recording)

- 64GB internal memory option

- Wireless charging

- AllShare dongle to connect to any HDMI display

- Smart Stay, Auto Answer

- Super fast Gallery response

- Pop Up Play (a smooth transition from full video to popup display, similar to Stick it! but better)

- 2100 mAh replaceable battery

- Micro-SD slot maintained unlike HTC's One series

Dislikes:

- Hyperglazed cover (nice but no ceramic cover as expected, more of disappointment than dislike)

- Pentile display (personally acceptable but disappointment again)

- Acceptable but bland design (like the side design though)

- Location of power button (still on the side)

Really not much to dislike other than personal preference-based design and falling a bit short of hyper-expectations. People calling this phone "ugly" is going too far based on their unrealistic expectation. Compared to many phones out there, this phone is much better looking by comparison and many will like it when they hold it in their hands. I think it's a solid choice for those who think Note is too big. As for me, I am just happy with my Note!!!

I'll be waiting for the next Note toward the end of this year. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Maroon Mushroom:
I like the SoC but everything else it brought to the table was bland.

-Fast exynos. I like that.

-PENTILE screen. How could they do that??

-64gb of memory. I like that. But you'll have to pay more to get that

-Wireless charging. Cool. But I charge from 5x different spots in my house

-HTC has the same thing for putting video onto any tv

-smart stay and auto answer are very very minor. Considering my hands are already ON the phone, I don't get the point

-is there a slow gallery out there? Everything I've used has been fast

-Pop up play is pretty cool, although I'm not sure how many times I would actually use it, considering I don't use the stock video player (poor codec support)

-I like the battery, but we're not sure about the battery LIFE yet

-Like the SD card.

-Pretty ugly compared to the One X though.

I feel that it's about on par with the One X in most ways. I'll probably be picking one up the One X here on the 6th, but will consider the S3 when it gets closer to launching (the devs make a huge difference!).

I'm also not sure what changes will be made when they hit the US. Most likely it'll be a different S3 for each carrier, which will be a nightmare as usual. It would be awesome if there was just 1 that support GSM / CDMA that way all devs could work together on it.

I can dream right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vpkb:
One site said the phone get get dual core variant for US due to old architecture which lack support for LTE. The new processor just went into production which means its impossible for it to make it to release on time. Just a messenger here :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
Actually comparing side by side, I'd take the sgs3 over the one x.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-0tsOBTWY4&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ArborRes:
Have you seen these phones side by side yet?

I prefer S-3 to One X in terms of design. Side profile looks better.

Back cover with hyperglazing looks much better. Overall it looks slimmer as well. By no means it's "ugly." You may dislike it based on your high expectation, but don't let your disappoint cloud your judgment. :D

How many times have you had to turn the power on again because of no action on the phone?

Smart Stay keeps the screen on as long as you stare at the phone. I like that convenience.

Stock Gallery App is much slower than Quickpic, but the video shows much faster response from the Gallery App. It may be due to just faster processor performance, though.

I use Stick it! quite often when driving. I use it to keep the Navigation on and play language learning video on at the same time. Other video player stops playing the moment you watch the navigation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] live4nyy:
Now that we have the SGS3 announcement out of the way...

Now that we have the SGS3 announcement out of the way we need to start pressing our respective carriers (eg. AT&T) to prioritize the ICS updates for our phones.

I feel we need to somehow make it clear to our cellular companies that "timing" updates to coalesce with their marketing strategies is detrimental to the end user and, ultimately, negatively impacts their PR. I think it has become obvious that the prerequisites for their testing to accommodate their unneeded totalitarian constraints on the software is taking too long. Smartphones do not need "Carrier-integrated" programming and there is definitely no need for proprietary restrictions over basic functions like voice-mail and contact lists. This is why the process has been slowed to a crawl, because they decide they need to have control over every aspect of our devices.

Sorry, just felt like ranting. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] circuit.007:
Personally to me it doesnt matter that the s3 has quadcore will the note doesnt. I mean it would be nice to have bragging rights. But developers and such havent had the time to fully utilize dualcore and now quadcore is already out. Not much use (sure its great from a tech view) but there are barely any apps that really require such intensive use. My note has handled everything thrown at it, and plus with overclocking to 1.83 lag has been removed from my dictionary. (okay i might be exaggerating a bit , i have had some hiccups but they were very rare). Also as others have stated s3 is mainly software which i really hope the note will get but when? Who knows.. still waiting on ics and premium suite....

And in my opinion the note has and currently is the most beautiful phone i have ever seen. It is what first drew me towards it. It holds an aura of greatness. The display..the screen..the shape. Its like a work of art.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Aerials:
Not that impressed overall. I'm looking at it as an incremental upgrade over the GS2 (but at least much better than iPhone 4S over IP4).

Quad-core is the only real feature that stands out to me as an upgrade. And even that...is it really necessary for phones? I could see the use for tablets.

As many people have said, devs are still trying to fully optimize dual-core phones.

Seems like I'll just hang onto my Note for the time being...and wait until they release a 1080p screen phone that can hopefully be an intl' version that works with at&t LTE in the future.
