[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xephrey:
That'd be nice. Another few items that are still on the checklist include:

- Button re-mapper. I've used the search function here, but I've only seen this brought up in the context of other phone models and their custom ROMs. Is there a ROOT app that grants me Activator (iPhone) type functionality? I'd love to be able to hold-press skip tracks forward and backward.

- Something to instill confidence in the play/pause button on the stock mic headset. Sometimes it works as it should - other times, you have to press it twice, three times, hold it down, do a rain dance... I know the little guy's got it in him. I've seen him accomplish the feat, it just seems he might need a little encouragement from some ROOT app.

- I've searched quite a bit for this last one. Is there honestly no way to calibrate the S-pen? I do the little rubric that comes up when you dial the #14214# or whatever it is, as well as switching back and forth from right handed to left handed. There aren't any other more fruitful methods?

My ROM is the recent German LPY release.

Thanks guys!

If/when I don't want to hear the camera sound, I just turn the volume all the way to silent. Kind of silly, but I think there is some sort of stupid rule that says phones have to have that sound, so you don't take "bad pictures" of people or some BS.

Search Play Store for "Camera ICS"

It's based on the AOSP camera from 4.0.x but has the menu option of "silent mode"

You can also set the volume keys to be auto-focus and "shoot" for volume +/- so you could hold the phone in "reverse landscape" and have volume keys under right hand fingers then hold volume down then roll finger across to press volume up as well to take the shot? (that's how I have mine configured)

I just did a search for this and found this post here (as such I can also confirm what OP has said, and so I'm seconding this notion.)

To add to what OP stated I also would like to create Play/Pause by holding both sides of the respective Volume Buttons at the same time as well. Though I think for that to be done properly I would have to link this functionality to a music based app to prevent unwanted shenanigans.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clive48:
Hi

My SGN 7000 task Manager shows 799MB of Ram of which abt 650MB is always in use.

I use One touch optimizer but wout any significant reduction in used RAM.

If I kill process in Task Manager, it shows 13 -15 process killed & Used Ram improves to 600MB.

Note runs very slowly due to this.

Sometimes Task Mgr shows only abt 450MB of RAM in use & then SGN is quite fast.

1. How can I increase RAM allocation? Is that a good idea?

2. If not then how do I stop process running in SGN. It is rooted & am using FrankoKernel 2.6.35.7 #8 , BB LB1, Build GB.DDLB2.

Asfaik, the note although states 1GB ram, 200 or so Mb is utilised purely for system.

800 is the correct use for apps, and Android will use as much of it at all times based on what apps you regularly use to keep them cached for quicker access.

There are ram tweakers on the app store. Personally I use the one provided with Norton utilities, part of Norton AV, which works very well.

Hope it helps.

It's most likely you made Reformat instead of Reset. Now the best way is to download official firmware from Archos web site (now it has the latest 4.0.6 version) and install it according to the instructions on the website.

so because im already rooted, will it be a long process or do i just need to download whats needed for the computer to see my archos?

if so, after i've done that, can i then go ahead and simply apply the 4.0.6 onto the internal memory and install it?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surdu_petru:
First...can you enter in SDE or recovery menu ? ....

...no need any driver for connect your device !!!!

Follows that :

1 - download your favorite firmware ;

2 - connect usb cable ;

3 - press power 10 s until the green light goes out;

4 - now press volume down and at the same time press power ( for 2~3s) and keep volume down until you see SDE menu ( recovery) on your screen

5 - go to Update Firmware -> and copy here original .aos file ( you have just downloaded it above)

Good luck !

(Here at the university we use a NFC card to check in. Is it possible to copy the tag to my phone so I don't have to carry my student card around?)

Hi Samuel

I believe this is not possible right now, as there are security measures in place to prevent fraudulent use, but give it a couple of months there will be apps you can download , to copy re-writeable NFC tags to your phone, making your phone work as an emulator of some sort.
[NFC Hacking] LoveNFC:
To emulate cards with your NFC phone, you have to have full control of the secure element. In the Nexus phones, access to the secure element is restricted to Google - only they have the codes to access it. In non-Nexus phones like the SGS2, they don't even have built-in secure elements and therefore have to rely on SIMs, which are in turn controlled by operators. Without access to the secure element, you won't be able to emulate another card. So, no, even in a few months you won't be able to copy a tag and emulate it from your phone. Unless Google opens up the secure element to, which is unlikely.

To OP: Even if you could actually copy the contents of the card and then emulate it, this might not be enough. Many schools use just the UID of the card to associate it with your account on their system. This means that there's a good chance that your card actually has no data on it. Furthermore, phones aren't currently able to emulate UIDs. You're out of luck.
[NFC Hacking] cellularticulate:
Clearly, a direction NFC will follow. There's no way users will allow something like that to remain as neutered as it currently is. It just (seemingly) has not worked that way in the past.

Usual culprit for this is reinstall Samsung drivers. They are notoriously inconsistent. Another thing to try is use a back USB port, ie one nearer mobo. If you're trying to connect via kies, there's a separate thread on that somewhere.

[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
Cuz my current phone is absolutely uselessly unreliable but if i cancel my contract i will lose my unlimited data which is basically impossible to get now for the price i am paying.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
You can try getting your current contract phone unlocked, sell it, then buy the sg3 (or a newer phone in general) to replace it.

In general contracts are more expensive than their prepaid alternatives (that's the point of having them). They also ensure that you're locked-in. This is why getting something that does not have you extend your contract is preferable. At the end of the day, however, the only way to tell if it's worth it is to do the math and determine whether that's a price you're willing to pay for a $400 discount.
[Galaxy S III General] the2rrell:
Youhit it right on the head.....a good flow of money allows me to buy 2 to 3 phones a year. so i bought the Note Lte, then im getting the international SGSIII, i will then switch back to LTE when the Note 2 comes out later this year I hope.

[Galaxy S III General] St4hli:
In Austria there are some really cheap bargain-contracts where you pay ~10€ per month for EVERYTHING (1gb, 1000 texts, 1000 minutes). These contracts also don't come with the obligation to stay at the network-provider for 24 months or so. The only thing: With these contracts you don't get an expensive phone cheaper, you need to buy it for the full price on the market.

But all in all you're on the cheaper side with these bargain contracts than with the normal contracts, because with normal contracts you pay about 20 to 50€ for the same service! If you calculate for 24 months, it's actually a bit cheaper when you buy the phone on the market for full price. With the advantage that you don't have any obligation to stay at this provider.
[Galaxy S III General] MoJoePin:
I'm in the US under AT&T, my contract is up in June. The reasons I'm getting the Int. S3 are:

- Won't be released in the US until later in the Summer

- Won't have to extend my AT&T contract

- Retain my AT&T phone upgrade discount (in case any come out I want)

- US version will be inferior to the Int. in many ways IMO (other than LTE)

- higher re-sale value

Those are the main reasons.

[Galaxy S III General] MaesterB:
I'm on Sasktel. Sasktel chooses to shaft it's user base again and again.

What's different now? Oh yeah. COMPETITION! I can pop over to Rogers, Bell, Telus, Fido, Koodo...but that damn contract...that's the pain.

So, I figure when it comes out, I can buy either the bell OR sasktel version outright, slap it on Sasktel, and wait until next year to move.

I'm seriously debating the Expansys one though. If I pre-order a 16GB right now, it will be mine in no time at all.

That way...come September 2013, I can move, get a new phone for my wife for cheap (her needs aren't nearly the same as mine), get whatever latest greatest then, and turn around and sell my still amazing SGS3 for $400-$500 bucks, and my new contract didn't cost me a cent.
[Galaxy S III General] nikzDHD:
Because people don't want to be tied into contracts. In the UK 24 months seems the norm where as as few years ago 12 month contracts where widely available.

2 years is a long time, especially if the network you are on has poor signal and such. Most plans have poor amounts of data, but the likes of Three offer unlimited data for £34pm and free phone, however signal can be an issue on Three. And I myself have terrible speeds previously on Three.

So buying outright and then a sim only route does not tie you down, you can sell 12 months down the line and get half your money back if the phone value holds, it'll be worth more than say 2 years down the line. This method does work out more expensive but it's worth it if you keep updating all the time.
[Galaxy S III General] dhoshman:
Im getting the international version because I think ATT is the devil reincarnated and I hear good things about T-Mobile but Im not sure I want to sign a 2year contract with them since Im already signed with Sprint. The only thing that makes me weary of pulling the trigger on the pre-order is I just ordered the Evo 4g LTE and my money is tied up with that and Im not sure if the US version is getting the 2gb of RAM like the Japanese version. Im just not sure wich I would rather have Quad Core Exynos or Duals core S4 with 2gb or Ram. Plus I plan on stepping up my international travel game this year and it would be nice to have a phone that I would be able to just pop a sim card in and no hassle.
[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
Despite its poor software and being unlocked anyway im still keeping this current phone just for media playback.

I use it to play tunes from samba shares on a wifi harddrive between bands (i do sound) cuz its way more portable than a laptop but it means i cant really use the phone at all while im working. Bit of an oversight selling my previous one when i got this really.
[Galaxy S III General] eviltango:
I don't get how is your threat even close to. Mine, your rational of getting the s3 doesn't make any sense to me. Here is why:

If you have a HOX when you signed a 2year contract, the HOX is a really new phone, and and you still have to pay 180$ assuming that you can sell it for 600$, I ask you why not wait for the s3 in the first place before signing a contract, because technically you could of, or the HOX release in the USA has not been that long ago.

Well I'm getting the idea that the majority are out of contract and don't want to get stuck for another 2 years, except a few BIG SHOOTERS that got THE money.

Like a wise man said once, "first you get the Money, and once you got the money you get the power, and once you get the power you get a new phone every couple of months"
