[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jb0nd38372:
I have this.

I bought one of these:

http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-Thu..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1339288556&sr=1-1

It will recharge the note about 7 times before going completely dead.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ElAguila:
Thjat one is a powerhouse. What I liked about the one I linked is that the note slips into it like a case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
I wouldnt buy it personally, my Galaxy S2 I made the mistake of buying the 'extended battery' from AT&T which is not a replacement for the stock battery, its a second battery attached to the outside of the phone, works exactly like the one you linked.

The problem is however, you cant plug it in to a PC to copy files to it without first taking the battery off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ajsam4u:
Sir,

Solution for Copying file from Phone without taking out the external battery is by using the APP called AirDroid. It will use WIFI to share and copy anything and everything from your phone. I have been using this for a while and never ever hook up my phone though USB cable anymore.

For your convenience... Below is the link to the APP .. Enjoy :)

Air Droid
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ElAguila:
ES File Explorer can also copy to and from a networked PC if you have a shared folder. I wonder if a Note with power pack installed would fit the Seidio active holster
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jb0nd38372:
Size.

Looking at the specs for the power holster, it is 18mm thick, which is .7 inches. That coupled with the thickness of the phone by it's self is just a little over 1.1 inches, If I measured and did my math right. Cant answer your question about the Seidio holster, but just by looking at the way the phone mounts to the power pack (via usb) I would say it's a no go with any case (without user modification)

ok ive just set up EGIT with eclipse and i cant seem to get the hang of it. can someone tell me how i would import a package from a git respitory or import an entire git respitory into eclipse, e.g. all of the cyanogen package into eclipse or asop into eclipse?
[Android Software Development] lukemovement1:
no one knows of any tutorials or anything to help me out?
[Android Software Development] sknoslo:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Loading_source_in_eclipse

Since you have to use repo to sync AOSP and/or CM you won't have any need for EGit. If you want to use Git for your own personal use (for apps you are developing, etc...) I would strongly recommend not using EGit at all because it's a pain in the ass (my own personal VERY biased opinion). Just use git from a terminal/command prompt. Github has nice tutorials on how to do this in linux/OS X/Windows.
[Android Software Development] Unlawful:
I would agree that EGit CAN be a pain in the ass but personally, for my uses which is mainly app development, it's fine. I'll get back to this thread when I get back onto my Ubuntu machine (haven't got eclipse nor Java installed on this computer) and I'll get instructions. If you're not doing ROM or kernel development, EGit is fine and it's quite convenient (having all the buttons for merging, commiting, pushing and pulling in the context menu).
[Android Software Development] Unlawful:
Sorry, I'd forgotten about this but here's how to clone a Git repository just in case you wanted to know.

File->Import->Git->Projects from Git->URI->then put in your remote's URI e.g. git@github.com:myusername/projectname.git->then select the branch you want to clone->change the directory to your workspace directory (my personal preference)->then import the project into eclipse as per usual
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LaurieH95:
Hey XDAers,

A couple of months ago I had issues with WiFi and wireless tethering on my MT15i (TmobileUK). I used CWM recovery to restore the phone but the issue persisted.

Whenever I start wireless tethering from the settings I get an error appear in text underneath the toggle button and it then cuts out.

Has anyone experienced this problem before? Just to say im using a locked bootloader so reflashing the ROM is out of the question.

Will updating to 4.0.4 when my SI number becomes available fix this issue?

Apologizes for the brief error description, I can post screenshots upon request.

Thanks again in advance.

Take care.

Hello. My One X is afflicted with the very annoying hissing sound when in stereo recording as shown here (Not my video)

watch?v=Y8GTloRDO08 (Not allowed to post videos yet!)

I have been experimenting and at least on my phone the hiss doesn't occur if my headphones are plugged in it sounds perfectly normal then.

I am not technical at all so would this mean anything to anyone?

Seriously tempted to try and get a replacement I just know I will get someone that is hard of hearing that cant hear it to test it. It is especially blatant if you put headphones on it is horrible :mad:

[HTC One X] OliverHaslam:
Same issue here, though it is the same with and without stereo recording turned on.

Interestingly, using something like Camera ICS+ results in no hissing sound, so it's either the software that HTC ships, or the app itself uses a processing chip that the third-party apps do not.

Okay I've fully rooted the phone thanks to this awesome video however when I try make a backup from recovery mode the backup/restore option is not there instead I only get :reboot system now, apply update from external storage, wipe data/factory reset wipe cache partition and apply update from cache. (Another note I do not see the ClockWorkMod Recovery 5.5.0.4 - v1.4 when in recovery mode at the top of the screen as I should instead I see android system recovery <3e>)

Thank you for the guide.

I think the text is wrong for Step 1 of http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s3-on-linuxubuntu/, where you say "Step 1. Put your phone into download mode by holding down Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power button together for about 10 seconds.". This just kept restarting the phone. The video shows you doing VolDown, Home, and Power, which did allow me to go onto the next stage.
[Galaxy S III General] nemmie_cz:
Hey, just a stupid question, ive never rooted my phone before, so here it comes, will this method add yellow triangle ? or increase the binary counter ? thanks :)
[Galaxy S III General] sohebq:
rooting brings yellow triangle and flashing a custom rom increases flash counter. Both can be countered with "triangle away" app
[Galaxy S III General] MrKunle89:
Ahh

Ahh See I did mine on a windows 7 32-bit pc i think everything went okay I just got a reply from zedomax on his website saying I should just try again. Gna ask for clarification of if he is saying do the whole process again? or a certain stage.

Tbh I dont see it as a problem until cm9 comes out of the SIII but it would be good to get this fixed because I'm sure this can be resolved :) I'm just wondering is it is possible to -since we have root access now- flash the custom recovery?

Ah, that's right. That explains why you have the latest build straight from Samsung.

The last few comments on the official threeblog are from users like myself waiting for three to roll out the new build.

Thats good =] But i have still got this no cwm recovery problem =[

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

[Galaxy S III General] Grizzly3124:
Yeh that's the problem I have. I went on for about half an hour continuously trying :(

Just because I'm a bit cautious, how does one restore the phone to factory status in case one has to send it for repair?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] SpudULike:
My phone was bought sim free.

I've not made any further attempts to continue, except to check the buttons that need to be pressed - they are wrong in the Linux text. As I said, I did get the "Android System recovery (3e)", but now when I hit "Vol Down, Home, and Power" I get the original Yellow Triangle warning screen. I'll wait to see if anyone can confirm what's going on before try again.
[Galaxy S III General] MrKunle89:
Alright chainfire has fixed it!!!!

Guys Mr.Chainfire has fixed it for anyone who is experiencing the stock recovery issue just do the same thing but with the new v6.3 of CF-Root http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695238

So just download v6.3 and do the same steps zedomax does but with v6.3

Hope it works for you too!:)

Always boots to stock recovery

Following the steps for flashing with a mac (using heimdall), I have successfully flashed recovery.img at least 10 times now and each time when I home-up arrow-power I only see stock recovery. Following MrKunle89's advice, I replaced recovery.img from v.6.3 of CF-Root and tried flashing that. Same problem: still only seeing stock recovery.

My phone is "branded" Vodafone ES.
[Galaxy S III General] MrKunle89:
If you have done that then try posting on chainfire's CF-Root thread I'm sure he'll and other will be willing to help you out. Make sure you mention its mac osx.
[Galaxy S III General] roblem:
Tried the Linux heimdall command now included in the CF-Root 6.3 OP on macosx, but got an error and soft brick. To fix it I put my device into download mode and ran this in terminal:

OTA and Firmware updates since posting

Wow! Worked first go on a Telstra SGS3. I had to kill the 3 Kies tasks in task mangler first then it went seamlessly. Perfect! Thanks.

Update: After the above rooting, the phone wanted to do an OTA. Seemed to go ok. Then Kies wanted to do an update to the firmware on the phone: from PDA:LE6 / PHONE:LE6 / CSC:LE6 to

PDA:LF2 / PHONE:LF2 / CSC:LF2

I did the update (it took forever) and after that I found I'd lost root. So I just repeated the rooting process again and that worked again. Thanks again.
