The Galaxy S3 bootloader is already unlocked, all you have to do is root. It's super easy.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captainblade:
That's great thanks for the quick reply one more question can you recommended any roms
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
Wish I already had my S3 so I could help......
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Best to try em out yourself and see which one you like. Read the features, changelogs, THREAD FEED to see how other users are liking it and their experience with the ROM!

Congrats on your S3 and welcome to the community! :)

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tErbo b00st:
I've had my Evo for 1.5 weeks now and last Thursday I started having an odd flickering issue with the screen. On any light colors, ie pictures, lighter app backgrounds...you can see the colors flickering as if the refresh rate isn't quick enough. It's not the whole screen, only the area of color that the screen doesn't like. It started with only on max brightness, but now I can notice it on 50% brightness. I'm assuming this isn't normal and I should exchange my phone? Thanks.

Completely stock rom unrooted.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] logie:
Sounds like bad backlight, replace.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
I have noticed this as well. Especially going to the Play Store. The odd part is that it doesn't show up within games, at least for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Evo_Shift:
If you turn off auto backlight does it happen? I think I see what appears to be flicker but it is the backlight adjusting. Happens when I first turn the screen on as the weather comes in. Also, it happens when I go back and forth from my messaging app to the homescreen. It is like the backlight is adjusting the brightness slightly. If I turn off auto brightness I get nothing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
Mine is not set on auto. It does it when I manually set it to around 60 percent or higher. It's not obnoxious but it is obvious on lighter colors. Light grays, some whites, light blues. Otherwise my phone is perfect and I hesitate to take it back in case a replacement brings a worse problem. I just wonder if it is something that would get worse. It has stayed the same so far.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
FYI to OP and anyone else who may see the flicker. After doing a little reading it looks like the One X was plagued with this as well. HTC released an OTA that seems to have fixed the issue. You can follow a lot of the progress regarding it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1597448

Looks like it was the exact same thing that I have noticed on my device. To save you some reading, you can skip to the last 10 pages or so and see that the update they sent out fixed most peoples issues. Hopefully they will have one pushed for us at some point.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tErbo b00st:
Thanks for the link. so now I don't know if I hold onto my phone and hope for an update, or go and exchange for a new one.

I want to root my phone, but not until this screen flicker is taken care of!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
I ONLY have this issue in the stock messaging app. Never any other time! It's so odd. But I'm not worried because of the fact that it's isolated to an app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
finally i know I'm not crazy!! This has been happening to me too. Hope an OTA will resolve.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
I'd say maybe message HTC support and let them know so that if they aren't aware already they will be.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
I went ahead and contacted support, I'll let you know what they say if they get back to me before I leave for vacation tomorrow. I suggest anyone else having an issue do the same.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TorxT3D:
i get a weird flicker too, but its like the app closes real fast and opens back up at lightning speed.

it doesnt look hardware related, just software.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
Is this happening to you in the messaging app only, or all the time? I wasn't sure who you were responding to.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
Sry.. more than just messaging
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rocklee99:
There's a setting in the developers options for flickering the screen, check there?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
That is a whole different kind of flickering, I think that option is to help induce seizures:) Thank you though!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firebirdude:
I'm having this issue too. I've only seen it maybe a half dozen times and it's always been while typing a text message if I remember correctly. Mine is just like a brief millisecond blur.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tErbo b00st:
so am I one of the VERY few having this issue? It looks like it's ALL OVER the One X forums, but no one is saying anything here. Most of the replies in this thread don't sound like my issue either, but the majority of the OneX complaints sound exactly like my issue. It's isolated to lighter colors, especially grays. It gets worse as my brightness is turned up. For example, if I look at a picture, only the blues may flicker, while the rest of the picture is solid.

Anyone?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
I am having what you are having. I did get a reply back from HTC. It was a generic reply and one of the things they suggested was to do a battery pull. This was an email I sent to the EVO 4G LTE specific thread. I just sort of laughed it off. Mine hasn't become any worse and everything else on my device is perfect, even the color balance settled in, so I just decided to hang on to it and maybe they will fix it in an update like they did with the One X.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ImaWinRAR:
great to see a new thread picking up more attention than the one i started. i noticed this on my first evo and replaced it twice! all three had/have the screen flicker. i strongly believe its software related like others have mentioned, so dont give up on it yet
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sachin hansaka:
Can anyone tell me how to add multiple songs in music player to a playlist..I didn't see any option for that.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] inderpalsingh:
just keep pressing on any one song continuously a menu will appear where you can add song to a playlist one by one there is no way or option to add multiple songs to a playlist on that player!:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sleevasteve:
Thanks! I like how the first link is interactive, and showing you how to code little by little. I'll have to check these out more in detail sometime. Should be very helpful for people wanting to get their feet wet in doing their own development.

The 2 other links you posted have an extra "http://" at the beginning which gives an invalid link. I took one of them out and got to the right page, but wanted to let you know so you can edit the OP.

I would say if anyone else has any other helpful links, post them up!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Solrac, it might be better if you would concentrate your efforts on updating our wiki since some information has already been repeated a few times, particularly the roms list. If you wind up putting them in the wiki then other users can edit it once you decide to not update this thread. I've seen it happen to at least two other threads already which is why team acid have moved some of our instructions to the wiki. ;)

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
Ohh sorry man I see if i can only updated the wiki I thinked that I was doing a good job by trying making a super post ( I spend like 2 hours making it):p
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
I agree with fb most people *we hope* would read the wiki and find all this awesome info :P

and if you do update the wiki update the way java6 is installed because unless i did it wrong i could get it working with this:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

Looks like the package isn't in the archive anymore. I had to do this to install java6 jdk.

sudo add-apt-repository [B]ppa:ferramroberto/java[/B]

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
Well erikmm I have a question are you going to had something to the wiki or I should update with my stuff first to the wiki?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
i don't have time to do it so if you can go ahead bro :P i was just adding my two cents to improve it by adding the correct java6 installation instructions.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:

I don't think JavaScript and Java is the same. Or am I mistaken that Android reads JavaScript and not Java?

---------- Post added at 10:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ----------

I'm confused and lost and scared. What is the difference between changing the bootanimation and bootloader graphic?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
bootloader graphic is the second animation but if you are scared dont change that animation and the bootanimation you dont have to worry you only have to check if the bootanimation is HDPI:)

EDIT: java and javascript is not the same ( java is for ui and javascript is for web pages and other stuff):)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] th3controller:
Ok thanks I was a bit paranoid. If the phone fails to load the bootanimation it falls back to a "Android" logo correct? Cause that's what happened to me :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
in theory yes if you still scared bootloader graphic then dont play with that I am warning you because im not going to be responsible of bricks:D
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] marshall39:
Hi , I own the Galaxy Tab 5110 , and since I'm not really sure about the cleanrom (is it really safe to flash it on this model?) , I'd like to know what are the "bloat" applications made by Samsung wich are safe to uninstall with Titanium backup?

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] miketoasty:
Do a backup and try for yourself. I have literally removed almost every single application without a bootloop so I would say you should be okay.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zedbra:
Metallice was kind enough to list the apps he removed from his Custom ROM.

check it out HERE.

This is for the 7", but bloatware should be the same;)

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Wi-Fi Power Management toggle:

echo Y > /sys/module/dhd/parameters/wifi_pm (pass Y to enable and N to disable; its N by default). This option only appears after the wifi is activated

Sound Control:

Volume boost from 0 to 62 (replace X with the number of your choice). It's 62 by default:

echo X > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/sound_control/volume_boost

Fsync toggle:

It's enabled by default. Enabled = stock IO speed while having data integrity; disabled = more IO throughput but less data integrity

echo N > /sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_enabled (N to disable and Y to enable)

Thermal Throttle toggle:

It's enabled by default. Careful playing with this, if this is working when the device heats up it won't be throttled down to safe values so if you don't know what you're doing just don't play with this, it's not my fault if you **** up.

echo N > /sys/module/tmu/parameters/throttle_enabled (N to disable and Y to enable)

How to activate the special sdwatcher binary:

This binary is special *buzzwords incoming* and will get rid of the fuse mounting and get rid of the /data/media symlink which causes excessive Media Scanning load - basically just mounts the internal sdcard as ext4. Battery life gets a nice boost using this binary. Instructions on how to use it at the second post. All credits go to Greg White, I did nothing but testing it for him.

To activate use ADB or Terminal Emulator:

mount -o rw,remount /system

cp /system/bin/sdcard /system/bin/sdcard.bak

rm /system/bin/sdcard

cp /sbin/sdcard /system/bin/sdcard

chmod 0777 /system/bin/sdcard

reboot

Don't mess with this if you don't know what you're doing.

INPUT_BOOST_FREQUENCY:

Change whatever frequency you want the device to boost to when the screen is touched:

echo N > /sys/class/misc/touchboost/input_boost_freq (N = frequency you want, e.g: 200000 (200Mhz), 1200000 (1,2Ghz)

TCP Congestion Algorithm interface

To check all the available options:

sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control

To change to other option:

sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=NAME_OF_THE_ALGORITHM

Detailed test of all the algorithms:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] groovy354:
On many phones or laptops the screen blinks really fast (probably to preserve energy). Many people seem to be ok with /don't notice that, but it really drives me nuts when a device does this. There's no way for me to preview how the screen works before buying, so please tell me - does Galaxy Nexus' screen blink? (And I mean really fast turn off - turn ons, like 60 times per seconds or so)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geoffcorey:
You mean refresh rate? ALL screens have a refresh rate. That's how the image changes. As for the Max refresh rate for the gnex panel, I'm assuming it's 60hz, which is standard for most android phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Prod1702:
Are you talking about the Auto brightness flashing when the screen changes brightness or the refresh rate. The flashing with Auto brightness can be fixed with a rom that lets you change the auto brightness. You can search the forums on how to do that with CM9. The refresh rate is stuck the way it is no way to change that. I do not think i have ever seen a refresh rate problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I've never seen nor experienced anything similar to this. Or even heard of it anywhere except on the One X.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
I am okay with it although I am not bothered even at 50Hz, some people can be extremely sensitive and there's no way out of that. I watched lots of Nexus reviews on youtube and I never seen the screen flicker effects. 50fps videos looks very smooth on Nexus.

For America, there is the Nexus for Sprint and Verizon so you might be able to try them out in the store.

This video shows the SIII flickered like crazy, but isn't a problem in other reviews, so I guess its either his camcorder fps or a problem with his SIII unit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DQ_UAtrnOg&feature=plcp
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] groovy354:
I'm not talking about the refresh rate :) I mean the backlight of the screen blinking independently, very fast. You can see it on many older Nokia phones, but recently I found out that my new Samsung Netbook does this and it drives me nuts! There's no way to change it, I think it's physically built into the device :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
Samsung phones use AMOLED screen which they manufacture. I don't know a lot about OLED technology, but the pixels light up themselves, therefore backlight is not used with OLED screens. AMOLED screen can achieve exceptional black level and high contrast ratio. As for how fast the subpixels in an AMOLED screen blink, I have no idea.

Before you get the Nexus, you should also read up on Pentile matrix versus RGB matrix. The Nexus and SIII use Pentile matrix making things appears grainier on close up. But for me, the Nexus screen is beautiful.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geoffcorey:
If you can find a store that sells a galaxy nexus, head in and see if you can see that "blinking". Personally, I haven't seen that blinking issue on my gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] groovy354:
That's what I would do if I didn't live in Poland :P It was very surprising to me how little known is this phone in here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
No it doesn't flicker. Its an amoled screen so there is no traditional backlight. Individual pixels light up rather than needing a backlight.

Nexus has no flicker. Its smooth as butter.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nbell13:
You need a damn microscope to even tell the screen is pentile. Or hold the phone directly in front of your face.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xi0nic:
Is it possible to return back to the original software of the phone after installing the leak. As in, can you use mattlgroffs Razr Utility to completely restore the phone?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
It depends of your current system. What's it?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xi0nic:
I am running JY Daddys customised AOKP (I don't mind losing all of my data)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BakaPhoenix:
Then you are not using the leak, you can easily restore it with rds lite flashing your correct file(corrisponding to you version of razr)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xi0nic:
I meant if I flashed the leak?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BakaPhoenix:
No you can't go back from the leak to gb (some cdma leak can, but since you are using daddy's rom i guess you are gsm)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xi0nic:
One last question, will I be able to update to the final ICS when it is released from the leak.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] lashton:
No one really knows, but at the moment its not likely, you will need to flash your phone to a standard GB ROM, but to do that you will need to wait for someone to find a way, then upgrade to ICS.

This is why I have not taken the ICS Leak Plunge yet

Hi,

I recently flashed CM 7.2 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1550469) on my girlfriend's phone and ever since she hasn't been able to send texts from time to time.

Her network also seems to be switching, she has a Virgin Prepaid card but now her network switches between Orange and T-Mobile (UK). She sometimes is able to send texts, but usually she can't.

I have no idea what's causing this? I'm thinking of going back to stock rom, but I can't find it anywhere.

I hope somebody can help us,
