[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
That's not a custom rom. All you do is replace the kernel.

The ROM itself (everything you see and care about, including the Touchwiz) is not being touched. (also including all your data, they remain intact)

It would be possible to compile ntfs-3g drivers for S3 but frankly what is the point if there are kernels which already include these features?

You'd need root anyway so you won't be on stock either way round.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Flash the kernel (never mentioned ROM) with Odin and you're auto rooted, CWM recovery, and NTFS mounting. ;)

Then, download Chainfire Triangle Away app to remove the binary flash counter. :)

Important, whenever rooting, make sure you backup your EFS folder! SiyahKernel will do this automatically (saved to internal sdcard) when flashing. Do not delete this, but keep in a safe place copied to your PC.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danben7:
Is SiyahKernel still considered the best for this job? I have a relatively standard S3 rooted with CF root already, I'd like to keep it more or less the same. Would SiyahKernel be the simplest, least intrusive way to do this? What changes will I notice?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
There are other custom kernels that probably will do the job. I just recommend siyah, as no issues with it.

Just take note of your current stock kernel version before flash, so you know what stock to flash if siyah is not for you.

This is the only path. Flash via Odin or cwm recovery (if your rooted and have it).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafaelpernil:
If you want to keep the stock kernel, use Paragon NTFS&HFS+ from Play Store. It's free.

I've tested with a NTFS USB Stick and the Stock XXBLG8 kernel and worked fine :)

Try paragon. Works for me on my 32gb rooted sgs3 with too much pimped out accessories and features to list.

FYI: it will mount it deep in the Android file system

in a folder. What i do is unmount, then mount, choose

destination folder of my choosing.

Hi,

After I upgrade to ICS (ICS 4.0.3 FLEXREAPER) everything is OK, except the x y axis are swapped when tilting in some games. Hevay gunner 3d no working, Modern Combat 3 no working.

However the screen rotation is OK, the NFS is OK, the asphalt 6 is ok. It seems there's no problem on hardware.

So is there anybody having same issue? Is this the game bug or the system issue?

:confused:

So I have to ask, what's the hype about the galaxy? I mean why doesn't everyone here have it? XD not trying to start something, but just wondering if its worth getting, best buy told me I have 14 days to decide if I want to keep this phone...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sephirothvfc:
You actually have 30 days. 14 to return and reverse contract. Anyways I work at a best buy mobile and the Samsung rep came in last week with a gs3 and I have to say its a nice phone. I came from the s2 and really it feels almost about the same. The screen does look more colorful and brighter but sometimes its just to much. Picture quality though did look better on the s3. Took out my evo and we took a couple pictures and u could notice the difference. HTC EVO has faster camera and better video quality imo. One thing I really loved about the s3 was the water lockscreen. Just seeing the ripples through the screen as u unlock it and it loads the homescreen is just beautiful. Other than that though its just like my s2. Build quality is not there but that's just Samsung. Just wondering if Verizon's s3 is going to be different. When we select preorder for the phones, sprints att says marble white/pebble blue. On Verizon it says ceramic white/blue. Wonder if they are using a different type of casing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shellguy:
Also the sprint version is said to have 2gb ram or that is what their site said. Idk I love ky HTC ish =)))

Where is the best place to buy the phone without a contract?

I'm probably going to buy from negri do they have any coupons or anything before I pull the trigger for $634...

I cant wait to get this phone!!!!! :)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rayoubi:
after looking online myself. I have target has the phone through amazon for only $150. any other good places, I might have to pay tax there.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Totòòò:
I never got it why people buy from negri. Their prices are ridiculous.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rayoubi:
How so?

Without a contract negri is one the cheapest places you get a phone without a contract even cheaper then amazon most times. They also give you a one year warranty......
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Zackaroli:
I pre ordered mine from them and they have the cheapest price online, I couldn't order it from anywhere else since I am in Canada and most sites only ship to USA, also if you want 15$ discount use DADNGRAD15 coupon
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] FIVE86:
Negri seems to have the best price, I couldn't find an Unlocked AT&T anywhere else. Not even on Amazon.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] barondebxl:
No its not. Have you seen how much they are selling the Galaxy s3 international version? Right noe it is at 739$ for the 16 gig models when most online retailers charge 699$ Max.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rayoubi:
any other places?

Looking for good place to buy this phone.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] divinewisdom:
might want to check the apple store. haha

anyway, your best bet is expansys or Negri. I had goo experiences with Negri, plus they take care of you if you need warranty support.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] samven582:
you can buy the s3 direct form att for $549
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rayoubi:
so much tax tho
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nay12x:
if it was 150 without a contract...they definitively would be back ordered within minutes!

---------- Post added at 05:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 AM ----------

Either buy from BestBuy AT&T or a craigslist ad dont go any higher than $550...AT&T sells from 550
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bigb252:
No sales tax in the Virgin Islands. Woot
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] KentuckyHouse:
Our sales tax here is 6%, so for me the $550 becomes a total of $582. That's still less than anywhere else I've found on line by a long shot. Oh, and I confirmed with my local Best Buy that they WILL price match AT&T at $550. So that might be another option.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jasnmb:
$649 for no contract or $149 for individual upgrade at Amazon, but they don't charge tax do they? Or I guess it depends on the state your in.

Samsung Galaxy S III 4G Android Phone, Blue 16GB (AT&T)

EDIT: it's now $549 for no contract.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bravomail:
best price is free as in beer

AT&T has best no-commit price. And after awhile there will be eBay offering around the same price and without tax. So... Weigh your options, and see. It is time vs money. :cool:
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rayoubi:
Lucky you. :p

Yeah thats not too bad. I would buy it at that price. Why buy from bestbuy, then buy directly from the carrier, ur still going to pay tax for ATT or bestbuy right?

I dont pay tax for amazon. But buying from ATT and paying tax is still cheaper then amazon.

What? how can you not pay for tax from bestbuy?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] moneyover:
Lol by me its 9.75% tax
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Cyberguycpt:
Where do you live LA
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] moneyover:
No in Tinley park illinois
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Daps:
I stay in TN and it'll be 9.75% for me too. I was hoping Amazon was going to be the same price as AT&T but I can pay tax in store and be cheaper.

Oh well it'll be a few weeks before I buy one.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Cyberguycpt:
Wow I thought it was bad here in Ca but its only 8.75%
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Randomacts:
Until they change it, amazon still has zero sales tax
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] noahattic:
I'm looking forward to buy this phone. I want it so bad. But in Canada, nowhere sells it outright..... Damn!!!!

I'm thinking of going to the states and get one. What's the best option for me?? I just checked AT&T, they are still requiring a basic voice plan at least if buying this phone without contract. I don't mind paying the tax as the tax there is still way cheaper than Canada...... I live in Vancouver and there's 12% tax on top of it... so...

$549 to me is godsend price........ Can I just drive to one of the AT&T stores and ask for it without any commitment?? will it be locked to at&t even with the full price?????
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mscoder610:
I just bought one from Amazon at the replacement / no-commitment price. Finally they dropped it down from $649 to $549 (and no tax in TX for another week).

So if anyone was waiting for Amazon's off-contract price to match AT&T's, now would be the time to buy.

My estimate delivery date is only 7/2, but that works for me.

Probably not as nobody at the ATT stores know anymore about it than we do. And I don't think they have any yet.

i got a htc inspire 4g running absolution 3.7 (based on cm7). someone called me on my phone yesterday and had the number on my call log.. i didnt save it. by accident, i deleted the number from my call log. is there any way to get it back? is it still stored in my phone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apourv:
Ask your mobile operator

Ask your mobile operator to tell you the number of caller who called you, they might have that info in their servers. Tell them it is very very very very important to you, otherwise they don't bother to tell you anything. You have to make them believe that it was actually very important to you.

This is a long way out, but it might work.

I don't know any way to retrieve that no.. So wait for some other person on xda who can tell you a solution.

But my solution, use it when nothing works. Because my solution might work.

Tell them it is very very very very important to you, otherwise they don't bother to tell you anything. You have to make them believe that it was actually very important to you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilus:
hi apourvi.. thank you for your reply.. the problem with asking tmobile this is that i'm on pre-paid with them.. i'm no longer a regular customer.. i called them saying that its an emergency and the whole nine.. but they said it was impossible to get me the number since i'm on pre-paid. let me know what you think.. thanks brother.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apourv:
Search online website of your provider

Go online to your provider, check if they have some 'login' or 'register'.

Go online to your provider and look at your history there. They might provide some info on your mobile records.

And I think there should not be any problem in retrieving a call log for your provider, even if your on Pre-paid.

For e.g. if police have suspect a phone no. (in case of crime cases), they ask the provider for call log info, and they get it, whether its pre paid or post paid.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xeeshu:
Yeah do what "Apourv" said above that should do it.
[Galaxy 3 General] MeGaDeW:
Hey guys, here's my problem:

I was flashing from Eclair 2.1 to Froyo 2.2 via Odin. All went good, i got the PASS, but the phone didnt restart.

Then I, stupidly, disconnected the USB cable and then took off the battery.

Now when i connect it to USB it gives me a white-gray screen and doesn't turn on.

I don't even get the SAMSUNG I5800L screen. Can't get to download mode via 3 button combo and via USB+ take off battery+3 button combo+ put on battery.

Should I use JIG, or is it a Total Brick?

Thanks :s
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
Probably hardbrick. Do you have warranty?
[Galaxy 3 General] MeGaDeW:
Uh, no. The phone has like 3 years of lifetime, it was my father's, and now it is mine. I tried to flash it to froyo and boom T_T.

Should I try the JIG or it wouldn't do anything? :s

Finally, if I have just a paperweight, maybe I'll try with the hairdryer, but I don't think it'll work.
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
Ah thats a pity. You could take it to a samsung service and tell them that after kies update the phone didn't turned on. I dont know the cost.
[Galaxy 3 General] ak700:
Hmmmm, i5800L, that would be the cause of the brick. What rom did you use??

Also samsung service center folks are pretty idiots. When my friends G3 got bricked, they asked him change the motherboard(if i am not wrong).That costed about rs. 3500 (which is high). Later when i joined xda, i found out that was a lam e bootloop which could have been fixed easily.

Moral of the story - Samsung service center people aren't that helpful.
[Galaxy 3 General] MeGaDeW:
Uuhh... I used the I5800 ROM, there was no I5800L, so I thought it would work...

And, I WISH I HAD A BOOTLOOP! >.< I think I screwed up the bootloader, cuz the only thing I get is that white screen, sometimes with lines on it when i plug it on USB...

WELL... then no JIG, no hairdryer, LET'S WASTE MONEY!
[Galaxy 3 General] vaibhavyagnik:
Atleast you are getting something!! i dont think its a hard brick.Does it get recognised by ODIN?may be the usb jig method will work

I've just updated to Trinity v 5.0, but my phone keeps rebooting itself after scrolling the homescreens. I flashed the 1 GHz script and changed the Kernel to Unity v10, now it's back to normal again without reboots.

Does anyone know why this is happening? No one else on Trinity's thread seems to have this problem...
[HTC Incredible S] wpra3:
Your CPU cannot handle anything more than 1GHz. That's probably the thing that caused the reboot.

Not all CPU can handle >1GHz due to the nature of the manufacturing process of the CPU, so you are a bit unlucky to get the CPU that can only run 1 GHz max, still its still satisfy what it says on the spec..
[HTC Incredible S] nazeric:
Thanks, that's what I thought. But it's only after I flashed the Unity v10 kernel then it would stop rebooting. Is it because the Ruslik kernel that comes with it is custom made for OC? Should I go to Tweaks now and remove OC Daemon then?
[HTC Incredible S] wpra3:
I think the Ruslik kernel comes with OC, therefore it reboots every time, just try to make it to 1GHz it should work, if not its probably kernel bug. And you don't have to remove the OC daemon after, just set it to 1GHz and you are good to go.

Does anyone running an ICS ROM have this weird issue where the touch screen becomes less responsive after the screen has been on for a while?

I've also noticed it doesn't register where I touch too when the sensitivity problem comes up. Turning the screen off and on fixes it, though. It'll think I touched somewhere else when I tap a part of the screen (usually the bottom right, thinks I tapped the bottom left).

Doesn't happen on gingerbread stock, it seems. It has been like this for a few FXP builds, so it isn't a bad flash. Any ideas?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Yes it should be safe but just do yourself a favor and only flash, back, restore, wipe, etc from el26 cwm kernel/recovery. Most stable ICS rom would probably be just a stock leak or maybe calks 1.6 rom. I personally use CM9 and its good.

Blu Kuban Rom is great if you want a variety of optional tweaks built into the ROM. There is a new Team on here called Team Rejectz they just released a new ROM that looks great, I'll be flashing that this morning, and Give you guys an update on how that turns out. I always flash back to either EL29 or EL26 before flashing a new ICS Rom.
