I'm actually glad this whole International delay happened for the Blue as I cancelled my Negri order and will get the AT&T version coming in a few weeks time. I'll gladly take the branding/bloatware in the event that I need an exchange it will be so much easier, good piece of mind.

Hopefully they stick with the Home button, we'll see.
[Galaxy S III General] hawkeye2188:
ATT needs to hurry up and announce when they are taking preorders!
[Galaxy S III General] ky0nkyon:
The msrp for Verizon at least is quoted at $599.99 and $649.00

[Galaxy S III General] EnderXXI:
Not even close to the end of my latest contract, but I'll shell out the bucks for this. I've been saving my pennies. :D
[Galaxy S III General] Ozark_8125:
Which US version?

We're on a $150 family plan on ATT right now with the limited 200mb data - however I've never been on contract and just bought my phones used and did whatever.... but my wife is on a iphone 4S, contracted, and I'm waiting to go contracted on the S3. Really, there's no need to be locked into ATT for me, but wasn't happy with Tmobile customer-no-speka-english-screw-you-support in the past. Sorry... lots of Dell/Tmo resentment in that statement.. anyways.. I have done fine with att cust svc the rare time I've had to call, but was wondering what kind of alternatives for the S3 in the us market would be out there. I've stuck with att / tmobile because of the gsm, but that might not be a big deal anymore. It does seem that Tmobile has cheaper plans with more data than ATT (we don't have LTE here nor do I care about 50mbs downloads vs 8mbs I get on my old captivate). Are there other issues to consider? 5 different carriers gives me lots of choices...

.... but looks like it's $90 / month to go rouge so probably have to stick on att to keep the total cost down... 'cos Honey Badger does care....
[Galaxy S III General] kulzboy:
is it weird that I read it as penis?

back to the topic my upgrade is in August so just in time for whatever new rivals of s3 will be( ie Iphone or note)

our plan on tmo is also $150 for 3 lines but we get unlimited text, 2gb data, and 750 minutes
[Galaxy S III General] Gadgetz:
My prediction is that AT&T will have the phone first and will drop it on the 17th of this month. Will be ordering a Pebble Blue 16gb as soon as preorders open!

via Atrix 2/VictoryROM/XDA app
[Galaxy S III General] MoJoePin:
Let's hope, why the 17th, does it follow their normal release date schedule? I'm psyched because the iP5 specs will be out by then so I will know exactly what the S3 is up against. I feel as though the larger screen size is still going to sway me towards keeping the S3 though.
[Galaxy S III General] doeboy711:
Well I am officially a member of VZW. I went to Costco this morning and bought a Rezound to hold me over until these new phones come out and I have a chance to play with them first hand to make my decision. I have to wait for my phone to be shipped to me. Gotta love the 90 day return policy for Costco and the free activation of the line!
[Galaxy S III General] kyan~:
i sure hope so cuz they are the only us carrier now that didn't release ANYTHING about pricing/release date..only a sign me up for ads page -_-)
[Galaxy S III General] Ozark_8125:
Wow - that's a deal - if you return the phone do you pay a restocking fee or something like that? Anyone know if I just went and bought a ATT phone on contract today if I could return it for a S3 when it comes out?
[Galaxy S III General] Swiftks:
Should have 30 day return + $30 m/l restocking fee.

Sent from my Atrix
[Galaxy S III General] Gadgetz:
Yep....so im holding out hope this falls right into place.

via Atrix 2/VictoryROM/XDA app
[Galaxy S III General] doeboy711:
At Costco, there is no restocking fee. Just return/exchange it within the 90 day window and you are good to go.
[Galaxy S III General] Vertig0:
How do you know it ends tomorrow?

Edit* Nvm I found it....

that sucks because I cant switch to Verizon till August. =/
[Galaxy S III General] CZ Eddie:
Scammer.
[Galaxy S III General] Celidonius:
How does that make him a scammer?

And I think he got his information wrong. It should be 30 day return, 90 day exchange.
[Galaxy S III General] doeboy711:
It does not make me a scammer one bit lol. It clearly states it on their website, and on my receipt. So if I am unhappy, unsatisfied, or just want to try another phone within my 90 window, I am allowed to. It's not like im finding a loophole to exploit or I have to weasel my way into. It's clearly stated on the website, my receipt and the representative clearly told e about it without me asking about it.

It says on my receipt that I have a 90 return or exchange for the phone. I have 14 days to return it without any early term fee's, and if I return it outside of the 14 days, I will have to pay an ETF if I want to cancel the whole account when I return the phone(s).
[Galaxy S III General] dualbf:
I can't wait to get rid of my Vibrant and pick of the SIII on the 21st. Just in time for my upgrade.
[Galaxy S III General] Ascertion:
Does Costco allow you to switch the phone to another line if you ugpraded using another phone line? For example, my phone line isn't eligible, but my brother's is and I was going to use his upgrade for it and transfer it to my line. I like the 90 day exchange policy and I was curious if they'd give me a hard time if I tried switching it to another line. I know Amazon and Wirefly charge you ETF if you transfer the phone from the upgraded line. BestBuy is the only one I'm aware of that doesn't charge an ETF. Not sure about Radioshack.

EDIT: If it matters, I'm on Sprint.
[Galaxy S III General] doeboy711:
Well you should be the primary account holder so you should be fine to upgrade your brother's account to a new phone. Then all you need to do is play musical phones on your account. After buying it you go to sprint.com and then swap his line to his old phone, then from their his new phone will now have a clean ESN and you should be able to switch it to your account. You will need his ESN number of his old phone so once you upgrade his line, you can switch it back to his old phone.
[Galaxy S III General] Ascertion:
Okay so Costco works like BestBuy? That's AWESOME!

Thanks!

Iphone has a tool called zeplin (or something like that) to add icons to the status bar....My son has a pokemon guy that he did and looks kinda cool.

I want the android guy sitting in my status bar on left all the time, is there a program that allows me to do it? If not how can I put the android guy on my status bar.

Hm, I'm not sure about just adding him to the status bar, but I know how to change any of the icons in the bar itself(WiFi,3g,etc.). If that is something you want, I could change one of those, but you need to be rooted.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
there's an app called "phono" that puts your operator symbol in the status bar. You could grab that app, change the carrier pngs in the app itself, resign it and reinstall it. lmk if you want to learn how, or go to the theme help link in my sig

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface2283:
Hi to all,

I have a Galaxy S2 rooted and I have a question.

Like you read on the title my phone crashes and I don't understand if the problem is due to some app that I have or if is because I made a total wipe before installing a ne ROM, when I say total I mean format all Data, System, Sdcard, and all you find in the advance menu.

I ask this because I'm not a genius, so if someone can answer me in a easy way so that I can understand.

Thanks to all.

Bye
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chef_Tony:
to just say your phone crashes is not enough information for anyone to help you.

you need to describe exactly what is happening and what rom and apps you use, when the problem occurs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
You can grab the last kmsg (kmsg = Kernel Message / the kernel log buffer)?

If you haven't rebooted since the crash, grab a terminal editor and enter the following:

su
cat /proc/last_kmsg > /mnt/sdcard/last_kmsg

Kmsg is continuously overwritten, so you need to extract last kmsg as soon as the issue/crash occurs.

Crash => reboot with long press Power button => grab last kmsg.

Just have a look at the last_kmsg.txt file and you may recognize what was going on shortly before the crash.

Or post the kmsg file here again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface2283:
So I'm using Kernel 3.0.28-AOIK-1.3-g521d527 sgs2ics@njord #1 Rom HyDrOG3N-ICS, for the apps I'm using the basic ones Handcent, Whatsapp, Viber, Skype, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, K-9 Mail, Ebuddy, Ebuddy xms, Noled, Juice defender, juice ploter.

Regarding how do I find the last message?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
I have just done it.

If the phone crashes next time:

1. Reboot the phone with long press power button.

2. As soon as the phone is up, start Terminal Editor app (e.g. Terminal Emulator from Play store).

3. Type the code I already provided to you. That will grab the last kernel message and saves it into "/mnt/sdcard/last_kmsg".

4. Open/read/copy last_kmsg examine yourself and/or post here again and ask for help.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naveen94:
although there are other threads about this I just wanted others opinions as well. I was offered a international HTC one x for my galaxy note. I need peerless opinions on this. I've had the nite for over two months and I do like it. I like the idea of flashing roms and I love customizing. However I feel the screen is a little to big. What's screenings opinion. Are there a lot of roms on flash on the HTC one x?

Thanks guys
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiffi2011:
I am having similar thoughts. I'm trying to talk myself out of the idea!

This is actually my 2nd Note. I bought one, decided the screen was too big, then got a Galaxy Skyrocket. That was too small. So I bought another Galaxy Note.

I love it but I'm super parnoid about bricking it with the ICS firmware. Also, it is JUST a little too big. It's fine for my trousers and jacket pockets, but it gets stuck in my jeans. The size of the One X seems like it would be perfect in that case.

Of course, I may be just bored, which is why I'm waiting a little longer. I'm looking at the Xperia S too. It's screen may be a good size too.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattinen8:
Okay, my phone is Samsung Galaxy GT-I9000 (firmware 2.3.3). For a sometime now there has been various problems with the GPS. At first the phone couldn’t get any GPS fix at all. (I’ve done the testing using GPS Test Plus software). Then I found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=878970 . After this hardware fix the phone finally began to find satellites. (Thank you kindly!). As a matter of fact the phone finds quite quickly 6-10 satellites in downtown Helsinki (Finland). The probles is, however, that it can’t get a proper fix. Every once in a while you get a fix for a few seconds, but basically there is no fix at all.

I’m a bit dumbfounded by this. I can’t figure out what still could be wrong with the unit. All I can think of are the GPS settings. Mine are as follows:

GENERAL SETTINGS

Test Mode:	S/W Test

Operation Mode:	STANDALONE

Start Mode:	Hot start

GPS Plus:	ON

GPS Logging:	OFF

Time out:	100

Accuracy:	30

SUPL Settings

Server FQDN Type:	Custom Config

Server:	supl.google.com

Server Port:	7276

Server Type:	UMTS SLP

SUPL Secure Socket:	OFF

AGPS Mode:	SUPL

SSL Type:	VerSign

Do you think there still is something I should try before I purchase a new phone?

PS. Very informative noob video! In addition to solving this GPS problem I was also looking for the movie "Snow white and the seven perverts". Luckily I learned from the noob video that there is no porn available on this site. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dachau:
Also experienced poor GPS quality. Specially on ICS it is almost impossible to get a proper fix and a constant signal. But it does not only seem to be a HW issue, also the driver has a major effect. Froyo 2.2 had good implementations for example. With Darky 9.5 I get very fast fixes in 5-10 seconds and a constant signal.

If you want a recent OS then I would get a new phone, one from Sony Ericsson, they have cheap models from 2011 that get ICS update, like the Xperia Arc series.

But before selling your SGS try stock Gingerbread with JW4 or JVU, they seem also soffisticated.

Hi all,

my volume down button (I9001) seems to be broken. I usually don't need it and only noticed because navigation in the recovery mode was impossible.

Is this a hardware problem or is it possible that it is a consequence of rooting my phone?

Also, can somebody help me with a procedure for unrooting it without having to use the volume down button?

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amerkiller1995:
Rooting is like changing to an administrator account on a PC. You just get access to some things which were previously inaccessible.

In my opinion its a hardware issue. Open the back case and see if the button looks jammed.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
Could be my card but only after I performed my 1st reset, this Houdini act started.

The content is still on the card but the Music & Gallery application will randomly decide you don't have any. Of course I panicked at 1st, even with a backup on the PC but looking in Astro file manager, it was all still there.

A little annoying.

Edit:

WTF, only Astro sees the content. Google Music didn't either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ajohnson16:
I have a somewhat similar problem in that the phone reads the card but not the music.

Mine was after a restart as well (though it wasn't by choice, I was out Saturday night and pulled my phone out to see that it had reset and recovered from an error and wanted to send a report to HTC).

I assume you haven't made any headway on yours without a post, I tried removing and reseating the SD card but it didn't help. It reads the space correctly and everything, but nothing will read the MP3s on there.

Kind of annoying, really liked rocking out with the Beats on this phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
U guys using the HTC app and what not? My phone has yet to have pics or music disappear.... Have you taken everything off your sd card did a scan for bad sectors on it and then did a full format on windows then on the phone...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
It does come back eventually but it could be either bad sectors, the way the OS scans the new SD location or the card speed is slow. Like right now, everything is working fine. I might clean the card & keep the mp3s & pics on the root of the card.

I was going to get an 64GB sxdc card before the month is out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
Yeah I know on the 3d and what not the card had issues often with things disappearing unroll I formated it and scanned it... Then eventually I had to swap it out lol I used it as a USB stick basically always transferring files...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aliwho:
Try this app out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.addz.mediascanner&hl=en

Are you guys using quality sd cards or knock-off! I ran into similar problems with cheap eBay knock-offs.

I buy genuine SanDisk now and never have sd trouble anymore!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
It'll give that a shot

I'll try this if the other fails.

The card in my case is a 32GB SanDisk (no class listed) from Verizon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
Tried both & still getting a headache over it. Pissed that Astro has no problem seeing it but Gallery & Music play peek-a-boo with my content.

I seem to be the only one having this issue so I guess it's the speed of the card maybe? I hope anyway.

For now I moved my Photos & Music to the phone's 9GB.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] spokenwordd:
I am having a similar issue. I've had my EVO LTE for 7 days and bought a new 32GB microsd card for it as well. After almost every restart or power off my sd card will unmount and I have to go into settings to remount it.

This also sometimes happens after the phone has been sitting for several hours, such as when I woke this morning (this is rare).

In my case it is either mounted and all date intact or NOT mounted and therefore inaccessible. The same card works fine in my EVO 3D so i'm thinking this is a bug in the ROM or perhaps the port for the card.

I'm LOVING this phone... getting great battery life, can't keep it out of my hands but there are a few annoying minor bugs so far but I do not regret purchase at all.

I have hardware version 003 and also suffer from the WiFi sleep bug even though I have it set to never sleep and have dedicated it to a single frequency (it sleeps whether on 2.4 or 5GHZ dedicated).

Beginning to wonder if this ROM has some issues managing services after prolonged idle times.
