As the previous poster had stated you could try a bluetooth connection, but a lot of devices limit the amount of bluetooth services can be used.

An alternative would be to get google voice and activate that with your google account. You can call via your google voice number from your phone or from your pc. If you use google voice on the pc it may pipe it through a relay server though, which will change the number on the receiving end.

Hi guys,

Sorry to bother you but I need help.

Last night I went to bed and my note had a full charged battery. This morning I fpund it drained. I put my note in charge and tried a soft reset but when I switched it on it said: remove some app in the task manager because the continuous running apps while charging battery may drain it (or something like that, it's the first time I see it). Of course, tbe task manager is empty and there isn't any app running. What can I do?

I have stock rom, all updated and no root.

Thanks

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thiefraccoon:
I've tried three KF ICS custom roms so far.

reloaded, gede (love the option of hiding nav/status bar), and AOKP.

On Reloaded and gedeROM, whenever I play certain games (not all. But issue persists on games with this), the sound will drop for a random amount of time. Sometimes for few seconds, others a minute or three. The game continues to play fine, and sound comes back eventually only to go away again.

Is this a known issue? Does this only happen to select few kindles? I've been searching around for half an hour, and I've only found couple replies on ROM threads with no answers.

could anyone viewing this thread replying whether they have experienced this issue or not?

If this issue is specific to only me, then I'd like to ask amazon for a replacement.

AH BUTT. MODs please move this to Questions! Sorry... won't happen again!

I did look through the new 3.0 kernel and its issues and saw that.

I agree the guys and girls at GSM arena are non bias and usually accurate. Let's not discredited them just because they did not like some parts.

[Galaxy S III General] BarryH_GEG:
Editorial aside, the news isn't all good. The good news is that the display's much brighter than the GN where it was a common complaint. The bad news is that it's not as bright as either the SGS2 or G-Note, especially at 50% brightness which is the most typical setting.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
Something I'm more interested to hear about is battery life. If the gorilla glass is thinner it might make the phone more visible also. If the battery life is great even with %75 brightness and better than the HOX at %50 brightness lets say, then I don't really see a problem and could see different kinds of trade offs.

I myself don't run my phones at %100 brightness that often.
[Galaxy S III General] Daemos:
Even if the glass is thinner it doesn't make the screen "more or less" bright.

One place where the brightness on my SGS2 is on full ALL the time is outdoors (auto sensor) and in bright sun it's hard to see, which means the SGS3 will have worse viewing outdoors than the SGS2.
[Galaxy S III General] ilostmypistons:
Do the numbers always translate into how beautiful a display is? Serious question Ive never really paid attention.
[Galaxy S III General] BarryH_GEG:
"Beautiful" is subjective. "Cd/m2" is not. I should have posted the link, sorry. There's also a sublink in the article that explains the testing methodology.

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_iii-review-757p2.php

Battery life is one of the things that concerns me. If any of you used Vlingo on the SGS2 in "listen mode" it was a battery pig. S-Voice always listening has to have an impact. Same thing with all the sensors being alive 24/7 waiting for you to blink or move the phone. You can turn it all off but it kind of kills the sizzle of the phone. I'm guessing Samsung made the battery 2200mAh for a reason.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
Having a thinner glass means a lot. If your visibility is improved then you don't need to tune up the brightness as much to see. The type of glass you use also can help our hurt visibility. Think of the glass as a diffuser, when light hits it, it will actually be reflected and diffused throughout the glass, this goes both ways from the monitor and outdoor lighting hitting the screen. By thinning the glass and changing he type of material the glass is made of you can drastically improve visibility. I mean look at the iPhone 4S (541 c^2/m) vs the Galaxy S1 (354 c^2/m) and if I'm not mistaken the Lumia 900 has a pentile (390 c^2/m)

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Noki...martphone-crown-in-outdoor-visibility_id29918

Everyone assumes the Galaxy Nexus and SGS3 are the exact screens, but the way they look is not going to be the same at all. The screen itself is reported to be a bit different as you can see they have different brightness ratings. In addition, the SGS3 is sporting Gorilla Glass 2. Being brighter and having Gorilla Glass 2 will surely bump it up from the Galaxy Nexus screen. But we'll have to wait and see.

I'm sure there are a lot more factors as to what improves what and that's why the engineers went with what they did. In the end the screen probably won't beat the HOS in sharpness and will probably not be as good outdoor but it will be good enough in those areas and better in other areas like contrast. We'll have to wait and see more test done with the device.

Putting all the above aside, Samsung went with the SAMOLED because it helps them make thinner phones in addition to gorilla glass 2 being thinner it probably helped with the foot print in the unit itself to give us the SD card and removable battery and maintain the thinness of the device.
[Galaxy S III General] BarryH_GEG:
But wouldn't the scope he used to perform the test have netted all the variables out? Unless the test he's using perceives brightness differently than the human eye I'd think the comparisons would be relevant? No?

As for thickness of the glass, it's based on application and ranges from .5MM to 2MM. 2 is 20% thinner than 1 which doesn't seem that meaninful in terms of improved device packaging.

As an engineer, you'll find these interesting. They're way over my head.

[Galaxy S III General] teiglin:
Just a minor correction, the Lumia 900 uses an RGB stripe, not PenTile (I assume it's the exact same SAMOLED+ panel that was introduced with the I9100). The Lumia 800 has a smaller, PenTile screen.

About the Lumia's outdoor visibility, it's a result of their "ClearBlack" tech, which is a couple of polarizing filters behind the glass to reduce reflections of outside objects. Of course, thinner glass in the form of Gorilla Glass 2 should help as well.

My main hope is that what reviewers have said about the screen being better than the Nexus is true, especially that the usual PenTile graininess is less visible. I'm sure that the LCD2 on the HOX will remain the superior screen quantitatively, in terms of luminance and color reproduction, but that is not the whole story.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
I'm not sure how the apertures work and measure things, visibility of the screen, light coming from the monitor and how the aperture works itself can all be different variables to be measured separately. If it bypasses through the glass and measures off the the panel itself or does it take into account the glass.

Like the test with the Lumia, Galaxy and iPhone. The brightness was measured seprrately and the visibility factor was done by controlling the environment itself by exposing the phones to different exterior brightness levels. They are actually determining outdoor visibility with photography rather than using an aperture, scope or device. So that I believe shows that brightness and outdoor viability should be independent of each other as they were controlled differently.

I had modified my original post to add this about how I have seen glass affect the military displays. "Think of the glass as a diffuser, when light hits it, it will actually be reflected and diffused throughout the glass, this goes both ways from the monitor and outdoor lighting hitting the screen. By thinning the glass and changing he type of material the glass is made of you can drastically improve visibility." There's also other factors such as how the glass is chemically cleaned on the surface and what kind of finish they add to the surface itself.

I wish I could answer more questions but I only have about 1.5 years of experience in this field as I was working on consumer products with no displays beforehand. I will take a look at those links after I eat dinner. Thank you, I've been looking for the test procedures of the gorilla glass.

[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
I would have to agree with you for the most part. I currently own the ipad 3 and the GS1. When it comes to text and sharpness, there is no challenge, ipad 3 owns my gs1. But in terms of pictures and videos, even my humble GS1 screens owns the lcd on my ipad (both made by samsung)

In the case of the GS3, it has a HD 720P over 300PPI. Texts will be crystal clear and sharp all the while giving me superior amoled video and picture qualities. Thats why I will never own another lcd screen given a choice. (didn't really have a choice with a tablet since ipad 3 was the best tablet to get)

Have you seen the 500px app on an amoled? It's freakin amazing. Much more than on my ipad 3. I doubt One X has a better screen than ipad 3 which has some serious color spectrum coverage.
[Galaxy S III General] 1234568:

I think samsung galaxy note uses the same screen technology as the s3.

If you like the display of the note .. s3 should be no problem, as it pixel density is higher.
[Galaxy S III General] Why So Serious?:
Burn in occurs on all Samoled screens, so yes it will be an issue on the GSIII. However, it won't be as big an issue as it is on the Nexus due to the Touchwiz overlay.

Burn in is caused by static high contrast images. ICS features a lot of high contrast images... black backgrounds with that cyan-blue text, and similarly with the softkeys... the black navigation bar is always present, so that area is going to be affected.

I owned a Samsung Wave with a Samoled screen and after 2 years of usage there was a thick dull vertical strip that covered about 1/4 of the screen. Once I'd read up on burn in I realised that it was where the text input box sits when texting in landscape mode. One of the first things I'm going to do when I get the GSIII is modify any apps I use regularly to remove these areas of high contrast.

[Galaxy S III General] Chicken Nugget(s):
I believe blue is also the most power consuming as well... but not sure about that.
[Galaxy S III General] Gambler_3:
And yet blacks save battery and looks best on amoled.

I'll honestly rather have a slightly thicker phone with an LCD, I was a huge AMOLED fan back in the day but I thought these problems will eventually be ironed out but they seem to be getting worse with every new gen of SAMOLED.
[Galaxy S III General] Daemos:
I haven't used the note, but IMO the SGS 1's screen has less problems than the SGS 2's

every SGS 2's I have used have a slight yellowish tinge on a portion of the left hand side of the phone. The problem is, it's only noticable under lower brightness, and if you don't notice it you never will, but if you notice it, you know it's there.

As long as the SGS 3's screen doesn't have any problems like this, I'll be fine with the pentile screen.
[Galaxy S III General] Gambler_3:
Yup the SGS2 has more problems but you know what? The galaxy nexus and note have even more problems so I wouldnt hold my breath with the S3 being any better.

SAMOLED was all about eventually bringing perfection to the table but it's clearly not happening anytime soon if ever. I would still say SAMOLED has better image quality because pure black really matters but with these problems I would rather have a more consistently good and long lasting LCD which btw have improved alot as well.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
Still waiting to see it in real life before I form an opinion. But due to my previous experiences with pentile displays, I won't pre order a phone with a pentile display. I have to see it first.
[Galaxy S III General] miahegypt:
Burn in was a term for lcd screens. For this situation think of it as "reverse led fatigue". The leds that are not used as much as the rest of the screen will appear brighter giving you the impression that it is burn in. On the first gen amoled's some would leave and entire white screen on full brightness overnight to normalize or calibrate the leds. Doesn't bug me one bit though.
[Galaxy S III General] nöt:
Samsungs has stopped making lcds afaik? They couldnt compete with the plasma tvs, so they changed to oled (or as they call theres samoled). But thats a new technology and not very good.

This is based on tvs, not familiar with phones.

Someone wanna explain the difference between slcd and amoled screens?

Is it the same as with tvs that lcd cant show a "real" image cause no deep black. And to compensate they add unatural colours. Blue white, humans skin are pink like pigs etc...
