[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingwasted:
Am I missing something here? App is not compatible with some of your devices.

Htc Evo- check

Transformer Tablet- no check

I need to understand the developer side of this coin. I have been trying to persuade Jawbone to update their android app "Jawbone Companion" to support my tablet. I don't know, but I assume their would be a publisher option in Google Play to add or delete supported devices so that they cannot be installed on those from the Play store. For example, I had to go to the website to find the app because search shows no results on the tablet.

It's a bluetooth headset. It supports 2.1+edr. App supported on Android OS 4.0, OS 2.3 and select OS 2.2 phones. Transformer tf300 has bluetooth. It supports 3.0+edr. It has ICS and is certainly more capable than a 2.2 phone.

Sooo the only difference I see from this side is a bigger screen. I have emailed at least 3 app makers that I use frequently and they just keep saying it's not tablet supported. So do they just have to add devices to some file that cross checks with Google Play or is the code for my tablet so drastically different that they would have to write a whole new app for tablets?

A technical explanation link of the whole developer process regarding this would be nice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingwasted:
Update to OP

I have found a method of downloading apk files in the Chrome browser with the APK Downloader extension. It only works with Chrome and I logged into my wife's account, did a quick search for my apps in question, then proceeded to download them to pc by making play think it was sending the apk to my wife's "supported" phone. Then I manually transferred the apks to my "unsupported" tablet where they are now running fine, no errors and no resolution problems.

I have emailed the developers of these apps and they have blown me off by saying that tablets in general are not supported, I emailed them all back telling them their apps were working fine and I didn't understand why they couldn't have allowed me to just download it the easy way.

So are they just being lazy? This just reinforces my reasoning that the phone and tablet are about the same and don't require any more coding than any other app that has problems on certain phones. Seems to me as long as the resolution is high enough and it allows auto rotation that any phone app should run on a tablet, and I don't see why they all keep telling me apps are not supported.

Until then I guess I'll just get my apps the way I described.

yap the apkdownloader would be the way i recomended to you =)

dunno why they dont support tablets

in some cases u dont have to understand them

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f8ct:
I had this problem once before but it seemed to go away somehow, but it's come back and I think it drains my battery like a *****. My phone says it is charging even when I have it unplugged, but instead I think it just drains a lot as my phone mysteriously went dead one day after that issue.

I'm running MIUI v4 by the way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
This is generally due to a dirty/faulty/broken USB port on the phone. Try cleaning it out with a dry clean brush. If that doesn't work, take out the battery, then clean the port with a q-tip and a (little!) bit of isopropyl alcohol, let it dry, and put the battery back in. If THAT doesn't work, you'll probably need to replace the part.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f8ct:
Thanks for the reply. It hasn't done it since. I was thinking it was because I hadn't updated MIUI since the first official v4 release, which I only found out last night heh.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f8ct:
I tried the brush and that didn't work. Haven't tried the second option yet but if that doesn't work, how much am I looking at to replace the part?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I've heard it's around $15 for just the part, but I don't actually know because I haven't had to do it so I never looked for the part myself.

Could be more if you have a service center do it.

Edit to add: see this thread and this thread.

They're expensive, but Vaja has one small leather case out already, and I'm sure they'll design more with the relative similarity between carrier devices, and the number of buyers across the world.

The first one they've come up with is $70, which sounds really high, but I can tell you from experience that these things are inSANEly well-made. They're probably hand-stitched by one 85 year-old lady in Venezuela, but their cases are awesome.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Isadora:
I've had an Easecase (a different model from the one the OP ordered - I think mine is a B1) for my HD2, S2 and now S3. They're really well made, fit perfectly and you get a choice of leather, lining colour, closure system etc, I do look at other ones available but in the end I always end up getting their stuff :p
[Galaxy S III Accessories] OpenThirdEye:
Seconded! I don't have one for my S3 (yet), but I've been considering the Grip or the Pouch they have on their site.

I've bought their cases for past phones and not only do they look great, but they're very durable. The price-point is a little painful, but well-worth it in my book.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Might as well ask this here. But do any of you guys (yea guys on this one) carry around a wallet case? I was gonna get a SGP Valentinus black for my SGS3 but I got to thinking, maybe it seems a little feminine. I wanted one cuz it would mean for me to not carry a wallet around. I wanted either the Valentinus or the Argos. What you guys think

You can use Capdase leather case. Maybe some of them got wallet design. But recently, they use a frame to hold the phone and neglect those wallet layer. Sigh........:eek::eek::eek:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] veyka:
Everyone working with GPLed code, in our case the linux kernel which is under the GPLv2, needs to understand how the licence affects them, and the work they put out on XDA developers, to aid understanding a good write up of this issues has gone up on the portal, you can read it here;

XDA-Developers and the GPL

GPL compliance is taken very seriously on XDA, but at the same time I remind people to report anything via the proper channels rather than confronting anyone in public, which always does more harm than good.

A note to rom developers:

Using a non GPL compliant kernel makes your rom non compliant and subject to removal.

If you are using another developers kernel, linking to that kernels thread will make you GPL compliant (assuming that the kernel in question is compliant)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
No, Beats is not supported. However, the audio quality is already very good and Supercurio is also working on his Voodoo kernel which improves the audio quality a lot (much better than Beats).

Thanks for the heads up

This x1,000,000.

The wolfson audio codec in the gs3 is top quality stuff, its already amazing and with supercurio showing it some voodoo magic it will be the ****!

Beats is a gimmick.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZtechfreak:
The "I want Beats Audio" threads are the only ones where I ever have to restrain myself from coming in and flaming people.

I agree with your point but the thanks were for the band in your signature! ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael_P:
I wouldn't call S3 sound quality bad but by no means would I call it good, because I've owned a lot of Nokias and the sound quality is just in a different league to Samsung, and I've tried Voodoo on my SGS1&2 but still not even close, and if I want to listen to some music I prefer to dig out my old N95.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
Audio quality really depends on a lot of factors: music player, earphones, environment, music file, etc...

Comparing combinations of the above factors is impossible and counterproductive. It's better to compare each part of the "chain" individually.

So far the SGS3 comes very close to what I consider very good. It's not perfect, but then again, I'm waiting for Supercurio's work to be finished. Compared to my HTC Desire and my old iPod nano 2nd gen, it is really good and I hardly dare to ask for more.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael_P:
I tried same tracks, same headphones and same equalizer settings and also manually changing them, but my N95 beats it with maximum volume and all through the range, and I just find the S3 sound dull and muted in comparison.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafianrafian:
I can't agree with Michael_P enough. Nokias, iPods (even 2005 model that I have), and Sansas are way ahead of S3 in sound density, quality, clarity, etc.,

Samsung got it all wrong in the audio dept. in S3. This is not rocket science. Most folks praise the Wolfson chipset that Samsung chose for S3, but as an end-user I am disappointed with the sound quality. Perhaps the Yamaha chipset is better in reality.

Samsung should've done a user-experience study before finalizing on the audio circuitry. Even a school kid would've told them that the cheap Nokias sound way better than the S3.

Could someone from this community compare the sound of Galaxy Note with S3 and post a report?

Thanks.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilgorcalrizian:
Yes but in the meantime the you can flash the latest Siyah kernel for a much needed volume boost (it won't do anything to improve the the actual sound quality though).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickkyboy36:
Am I going deaf? I have an old N95 sitting here and a galaxy s3. I love the sound quality on the S3, it's absolutely fantastic.

The N95? not so much. First of all, you get a massive hiss whenever headphones are plugged in which remains throughout all songs played. Secondly, it's much more tinny!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AtLemacks:
I was just pre-ordering my Galaxy S3 on VZW and decided to skim the contract. I noticed in one paragraph that they have in writing what code the S3 is defaulted to for SIM unlock and use on another carrier. Now, I am wondering if AT&T was just as kind and put it in our One X contracts? If anyone has theirs handy, or a digital version, check it out. The paragraph in VZW contract said it was defaulted to either "000000" or "123456". I tried generic codes on my One X to no avail, and obviously don't have my SGS3 to test if they were telling the truth! Let me know if you guys find anything!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] foxbat121:
First of all, you will likely have to call Verizon to get the network unlock code in order for roaming. Unlock code usually is tied to the IMEI number of your phone for GSM phones. Secondly, even if you unlocked your Verizon global phone, you will still not be able to use on AT&T or T-Mobile. You can only use it abroad.

Now, it is possible for newer global phones from Verizon be unlocked use a default code but you will still not be able to use them on other US GSM carriers.

On AT&T, not only you have to ask for the unlock code specfic to your phone, but also AT&T won't give it to you until the new phone is on the martket for 10-month, the so called 'exclusive' period.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] AtLemacks:
First of all, you are absolutely WRONG because I have a Rezound that works perfectly fine on AT&T without any unlock code, secondly I asked if anyone had seen this on their contract, so you can take your irrelevant post and shove it up your a$$.

So, I've been trying to fix this for what seems to be months now. OK I flashed to a ROM and bricked my phone. (Don't remember what ROM it was.) Then after a while, I flashed to another ROM while my phone was bricked, and it worked, however with no mobile data, only WIFI. Then I got the mobile data to work, and my WIFI just stopped working. Everytime I toggle WIFI, it says Error in the bottom of WIFI. I need help please! :(

[HTC-PG762]
[HTC Wildfire S] dudeman1996:
I think your definition of bricked might be wrong. The most widely used definition of bricked is when you do something to the phone that stops it from turning on completely, hence the "brick".

What ROM did you flash? The Wi-Fi error you're experiencing is almost certainly caused by a fault in the ROM, not your phone.

Also, there's a Q&A section, post other questions there please :)
[HTC Wildfire S] w3r3w0lv33:
Like I said before I don't remember what ROM it was but I "think" it was a Buzz ROM not a Marvel ROM.
