[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Product F(RED):
International one has an Exynos processor with a Mali-400MP GPU. Unless you game heavily like I do, you won't notice a different. Quad vs dual doesn't matter. On the flipside you get 2GB RAM vs 1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Yeah, I did a bunch of research today on the SGS3 after my time in this thread.

The way I weighed it out is, my partial upgrade will get me the SGS3 at about half price. With the free month service promo, that'll bring the price of the phone down to like $178 (meaning $78 out of pocket). If I go the GN route, it'd be $320 out of pocket. Unfortunately, that is clearly the route I cannot take.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
I don't think you'll be unhappy with the GS3, but just want to point out that you could always sell the phone for ~$400 after buying it and buy the GN, and you're still only ~$78 out of pocket.

I suppose the question would be whether you want to keep the GS3 new in box, and sell it for a premium; or open and play with it, see if you like it, and then get slightly less out of it if you do decide to sell it (since it's been used).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrsbelpit:
I think you could sell the s3 for $500 or more, actually.

Don't forget to add a rider to your homeowner/renters insurance for your next phone. For the GNex (insured for $450 (inc tax/shipping) it was $12.84 per year for me with no deductible. If it's stolen, lost, damaged, or bricked they send you a check.

edit: Wanted to say, that's pretty awesome of T-Mo, and of course, those who donated to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KennyG123:
That sounds like a good deal. I am looking at the GS3 for my upgrade on Sprint in July. Although the girl in the T-mobile commercial makes the HTC one look hot...but she don't come with it....lol. It does my heart good to see this working out for you with even T-mobile helping.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
That's in the event of theft from your house though, right? Thanks for that tip, I did not know that!

A few minutes ago, a cop pulled into our plant and came inside. I was outside working. My heart started racing, thinking maybe they recovered the phone. I came inside....he was getting a quote for a tank set! :( lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Ha:p

I think don't get your hopes too high, it's probably lost forever..:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Yeah. I've already spoken to my friend who works for the police department and he said if its not pawned, its gone for good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrsbelpit:
Not just from your house, from anywhere. If anything anywhere ever happens to it, you're covered.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Really?!?

Who is your provider? I think I have renters through AllState..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
He did say he had a rider but a phone call to your agent wouldn't hurt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Oh, I have no clue what a rider is. I'm new to the insurance game, as stupid as that sounds..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrsbelpit:
I have safeco, but allstate will do it, trust me. I called it an electronics rider but some companies will call it a personal property rider. Just give them a call.

a rider is additional coverage attached to your policy for specific items - I also have one in case I lose my engagement ring.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
You are awesome, thank you so much! I'll give them a call tomorrow and speak with my agent about it. I had NO clue you could do that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Well, it seems they're not too interested in following up with T-Mobile to check the IMEI for usage. Pretty sure the phone could be easily recovered if they did so, but it doesn't look like it'll happen.

I'm still waiting for a response by Employee Relations as well, but the fact that it's been like a week and nothing still makes me think they're blowing me off.

On the plus side, I had another donation yesterday! I just realized it was there.

Up to $125 now :D

Bring me down to about $50 out of pocket to get my upgrade, assuming that'll be the price of the SGSIII.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Good to hear that you are soon back on track with a bigger screen:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
Haha, tell me about it! I'm so frustrated reverted back to the N1.

Also, happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there (or moms who were also dads!).

These donations are like an awesome Fathers Day gift from the XDA community :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Heh, i understand, feels exactly like going back to HDDs after using SSDs:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KennyG123:
Happy Father's Day right back atcha!

I know Sprint GS3 upgrade price is $199 so hopefully T-mobile will be the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bizdady:
If you upgrade through best buy you get a $50 gift card after phone is activated (well I did). I have two S3's on preorder so will probably use those gift cards for SD cards and an external charger
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Toad858:
I know this is the gnex forum but once you get the t-mo s3 im pretty sure youll never look back!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
Until Jelly Bean is released :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uoY_redruM:
OK, I have some really great news!

I called T-Mobile to tell them I wanted to take the deal and have them apply the one-month free service so I could do the partial upgrade on Thursday. I then got to talking to the rep and told her it made no sense for me to do a partial upgrade, have to sign a new 2-year agreement and still pay half price for a phone upgrade when I'm only 3 months away from a full upgrade.

She told me instead of doing a partial upgrade, she'd have me sign a new 2-year agreement (which actually INCREASED my minutes from 750 to 1000, data cap remained at 5GB, text remained unlimited.....EVERYTHING stayed the same except my minutes were increased to 1000 and the

price remained the same!

) and she'd put both phone lines in for a FULL UPGRADE!!!!!

So, in summary, my plan actually got better, the price remained the same AND I get full upgrades on both lines!!!!!!!

WOW! Man, things are looking up for me on this Fathers Day! Plus my wife got me Dunkin Donuts for breakfast :D lol

Now, if the SIII is $199 with a full upgrade, I'll pay about $86 out of pocket. Still more then I want to pay but at least things are looking brighter.

Thank you so much guys for your continued support!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KennyG123:
That is awesome news! Congrats!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MJMcMahon:
Hi all -

discovered an odd issue when attempting to connect my GNEX to my WiFi access points the other day: WPA/WPA2 with TKIP encryption works fine. When I select WPA2 with AES encryption the Android is unable to connect. Is this a known issue? Google searches and searches of XDA have been fruitless so-far...seems people are confusing WPA2 Enterprise with WPA2 AES and they are two different configurations (Enterprise usually involves a RADIUS server for authentication, AES is simply a different (stronger) encryption).

Thanks in advance, apologies if I missed a thread. :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roxdragon:
Hi guys I purchased this mhl cable

http://www.ebay.it/itm/160781902835...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2648#ht_3437wt_1165

Dosen't work

the tv did not see anything

I plugged the charger on adapter HDMI, but the phone ONLY charging...

Why?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hefonthefjords:
Designed for GS2, thus will not work with GS3.

Pretty obvious given the listing title.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan1909:
For some reason or another, the S3 has a different cable requirement to the S2 and pretty much all previous phones. This means that cables designed for other phones (like the one you bought, which was designed for the S2) won't work.

There will be third party MHL cables for the S3 out soon enough I'm sure.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hot_spare:
I read in some review that it uses MHL ver 2.0

I think that's why it doesn't work with older SGS2 cables.

[Kindle Fire General] IndianaBond:
Rom: Stock

Rooted with KFU 0.9.5

TWRP 2.1

fff 1.4a

The problem I'm having is that when I boot my KF up it goes to fff. I get 3 options to boot from (this is whenever I power down the KF). When I choose to boot to recovery, the power light turns orange for two secs and then it boots; but back to the fff screen. I did this about four times in a row and it still boots back to the ffa screen.

If I choose ~normal boot~, It boots up fine. When I try to use KFU to boot to recovery or fast boot, it says that it is waiting for device. I tried this several times but no luck.

I want to get into recovery. That's my goal. I'm guessing that the KF is not booting in fastboot for it to go into recovery. I tried to reinstall TWRP 2.1 with KFU and it gets to the point where it's waiting for the device and nothing happens.

I'm not very advanced in this stuff. Please be patient with me. Thank you for all your help.
[Kindle Fire General] lovejoy777:
what command are you using to install recovery?

ok

download twrp 2.1.1.img onto pc

turn off kindle (20 second hold) with the usb cable unplugged from the kindle

open terminal where you have fastboot located.

type the following:

fastboot flash recovery </enter/path/to/recovery.img/here>

press enter

you should see waiting for device

then plug in your usb to kindle

this should power up the kindle and fastboot flash a new recovery.

then type

fastboot reboot

note:

(there is a space between recovery & /

i also find it easier to put a space after "recovery" then drag & drop recovery.img into terminal)
[Kindle Fire General] IndianaBond:
ok...

I did everything you said and the cmd console was still <waiting for device> after I plugged in the KF.

I checked in device manager and that's ok for the adb (it says: android composite adb interface).

Still looking to get into twrp recovery.
[Kindle Fire General] Dasanko:
There's probably something wrong in KFU's process. Could you at least show us its log or a screenshot?
[Kindle Fire General] smirkis:
reflash twrp using smirkit. than try to get into recovery again
[Kindle Fire General] lovejoy777:
if its waiting for device your pc is issuing fastboot command. so as you say its your kindle.

one of the above methods should work.

imho smikis's smirkit is nice to use

edit: can you copy and paste your commands after you try to flash new recovery

Anyone know if there is a ROM out there for our lovely tablet where HDMI audio for 5.1 or even multichannel works at all?

I've been using stock since ICS came about. It sucks as they have not resolved this matter. It worked fine with Honeycomb.

Anyway, I don't feel like flashing a bunch of ROM's at this point unless it appears promising. Input very much welcome and appreciated.

Radio

The radio you need depends on your service provider and ROM, some dev's suggest the radio you should use to attain the best speeds, also you can check the stock radio release with your phone when it was stock, and look for ROM's with the same radio as well as trying to find if the radio will be flashable on your ROM

"Since God created man, and man created the Galaxy Note, the Galaxy Note are like a gift from God, Randal!"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
To use Heimdall just download and install it then watch some videos on youtube of people showing how to root other Samsung devices with Heimdall. The process is the same just use files made for rooting the Note.

EDIT: Apparently the Galaxy Note is not compatible with Heimdall. I have searched for the past couple hours and can confirm Heimdall isn't compatible with the Note. It may be in the future but for now I guess ODIN and Windows is your only option for rooting. If I were you I would install windows in VirtualBox and use odin to flash a rooted kernel.

I also noticed that my camera firmware is gone.

So if anyone knows how to install it back using ODIN or CWM,il be realy thanfull.

The build number difference is normal, for example devices here in Qatar come with Baseband JXKP6 and Build JXKPH.
