[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitalchauhan:
I have a backup of my phone files (I connected my S2 to my PC and saved everything on the phone's internal memory). Is there any way to recover my contacts from this backup?

I could not see any obvious "contacts" folders for files

Here are the files in my backup:

The phone no longer works and I did not have it synced with my Gmail so cannot recover my contacts through gmail :(

Thanks for any help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarontsl:
Use kies and see whether they detect the previously backed up data

Has anyone tried open garden or barnacle to tether on a rooted gs iii?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
The S3 allows for tethering out-of-the-box (at least on stock firmware).

Why do you need another app?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sachin sharma:
can sum1 suggest me a good book for kernel development??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
book? I think u will get ebooks on net but I am not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xepisode:
I want that book also.. Really looking forward developing android kernel
[Galaxy S III Accessories] blackguy101:
So I remember when i had my first ipod touch years ago i had this clear see through hard case and i loved it. It didnt really add that much bulk and it felt nicely in the hand. Im getting the white gs3 and i really dont want to take anything away from the look and feel and I want at least some protection. I was wondering if there was any kind of clear hard case out for this phone right now?

http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-S-Line-F...=1339952937&sr=1-5&keywords=galaxy+s+III+case

I was looking at this case but im not sure on how hard it is or if it was like one of those flimsy silicone cases.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
there are tons of them here - http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_nkw=...+tridea&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

look through and choose what you like
[Galaxy S III Accessories] americasteam:
I ordered this one last week. Should arrive Monday.

http://i-luv.com/product_detail.asp?idx=1749&category_cd=t66&cat_lev=1
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Neither of those are clear cases
[Galaxy S III Accessories] americasteam:
They are all frosted translucent. See overview below. It's in German.

Thats actually pretty nice
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jadaress1:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
I emailed iluv if the itembwas translucent of not and got a reoly this morning.

" Hi Nick,

Thank you for contacting iLuv Creative Technology. Yes, the ISS260 white is translucent.

Best regards"

Im gettin one
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jadaress1:
Thanks to both of you :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
The 1 thing holding me back from buying that Iluvcase right now is the shipping is $13 for ground! More than half the cost of the case!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] blackguy101:
So i came upon this case so far

http://www.mobilefun.com/35478-crystal-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s3.htm

realistically i know its no ottorbox but it should still hold its own against some drops though right?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
I just ordered the Iluv case. The shipping was a bit tough to swallow, but I couldn't stop looking at it all day which is my sign that it is something I really want.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] americasteam:
You know, I had the same exact feelings as you. I just had to have one. Mine is being delivered tomorrow. Now I just need a phone to put in it!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] blackguy101:
I finally caved in and got this clear case

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crystal-Cle...ccessories&hash=item2571a79a96#ht_2415wt_1378

I cant wait to rock it with my galaxy nexus when it gets shipped!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
The reason i went with the iluv translucent case over a regular clear hard case was because after the back of that clear case gets scratched up from setting it down on things, it is going to start looking like crap. all the case nice and clear with beat up scratch marks on the contact points. The translucent will no doubt get scratched also, but IMO will be less obvious.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] blackguy101:
hmm i see where you are coming from can you post a link to the case so i can see what you are talking about?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
here is the link to buy

http://i-luv.com/product_detail.asp?idx=1749&category_cd=t66&cat_lev=1

here is a better picture of what it looks like

http://www.mobiflip.de/samsung-galaxy-s3-iluv-overlay-bzw-hardcase-in-weiss/

The shipping was $13 which was difficult, but its the only case that has REALLY grabbed my attention, especially since I wasn't going to go with a case at all.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] americasteam:
I received this case today. Just thought I would let you guys know that it has a soft feel to it that provides good grip. I thought it would be just hard slick plastic, so I'm pleased with that aspect. Now I just need AT&T to ship my phone! lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] blackguy101:
Man shipping is kind of steep for this phone but i actually do want it now lol. im guessing that this case might not be available in stores at launch huh?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
Thay is good to know! Makes me even more happy that i bought it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themightycat:
iluv case looks nice. Anybody who has it can confirm the pics?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
mightycat-I emailed iluv and they confirmed.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themightycat:
Ah man, looks like the white ones are sold out. I'll have to call them to see when they will have it in stock again I guess.

Anyways, I hear shipping is a lot and it looks like shipping is free for purchases of $50 or more. If anybody is interested, you can front me 26-27 dollars through paypal and I'll purchase both of ours in one order for free shipping, North Americans only. I promise I won't rip you off, but this is for anyone who believes me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1Android:
glad i ordered mine early this morning then! :p
[Galaxy S III General] Soupskin:
Anyone else get an invite for their local Samsung Customer Event?

Here is what I got:

I think T-Mobile might be doing a few of these too from what I've seen around on the web.

So did anyone else get an invite or is attending? If you live in the Atlanta area and would like to attend this one, send me a PM and I will send you the registration link. The link is generic and isn't tied to me in any way.

Free (I hope) cocktails and geeking out over a bad ass phone, what could be better?

I just rooted my Galaxy tab 2 7". I also have a Kindle Fire and I had issues with the Fire where it got an OTA update and I lost root. Could the same thing happen to the gtab? If so, I'll put a custom ROM on it asap.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ectoplasmic:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinmemo:
I can't charge my s3 with this

It simply doesn't charge at all.

any possible solution to convert the device and stuff?

extra info. is that I live in Thailand

Thanks a batch !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Are you sure the device actually works? (Confirm it on another phone)

My APC charger works flawlessly.

If it does, please measure the resistance (Ohm) between the 2 middle pins on the connected cable and post the result here.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinmemo:
now that you mentioned the cable, i tried another cable and it worked...

my original cable was this paul-squid looking cable, i tried it with my N8 cable and it worked....

thank you so much for mentioning that word mate :D

Disclaimer: I am not a spokesperson for team.fluxion nor do I have any affiliation to them whatsoever. The app stated in this post is simply a public service announcement to those that enjoy/want the Windows PC experience on their Android powered device. All rights of this app goes to its respective owners.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have you ever wanted to get a PC quality experience on your Android powered device, then look no further! Windows XP is now on Android, well sort of. Thanks to the people in team.fluxion, who is no stranger to the development scene and has been pumping out applications since the good old windows mobile PPC days (Windows Mobile 5/6.x for the youngins reading this), as well as Windows desktop applications, we can now get a taste of Windows XP on our device, and for FREE :). To save time, I will just use the description from their official Google Play page:

A legendary application for Windows Mobile Pocket PCs is back for Android as a launcher that imitates the look and feel of Microsoft Windows XP right on your Android device. It lets you explore your file system and open different file formats using default programs as assigned in your device. It also provides the common file system operations like copy, cut, paste and delete.

Short sweet and simple, right :). This app is brand new (like first release new, hence the "beta" tag it's sporting) but it is amazing, and is very functional and fun for a beta release. I am running this on both my Evo 3D (qHD [540x960 resolution] screen, a bit small, but for those who are android tech savvy with some system partitions root permissions, just modify your build prop on the "ro.sf.lcd_density" line and add 40 to whatever your number is, or experiment with it different numbers. I think there's an app on the market for LCD density modification, too) and my Velocity Micro t408 cruz (its an 8 inch tablet, so no modification is really needed. I set my LCD density to 140 to make the status bar smaller though and it gives you a bit more screen real estate). Without further ado, here is the download link, completely free!

Download it here (Play Store Link) XP Mod Launcher

Oh and P.S. - They have a Windows XP boot animation that's cool too, check it out (surf their website, too) WinXP Boot Animation Android
[Android Apps and Games] buzzboy:
I'm actually quite impressed. It looks and feels like the real thing.

It's missing the authentic crash every 20 minutes though. ;)

Cheers for the share.

Regards.
[Android Apps and Games] mingolianbeef:
Same thing I said.!
[Android Apps and Games] safeelhd2:
Installed this. I think it wors really well, looks awesome.

Only thing i dont like is the windows startup sound everytime i turn the screen on when phone is on silent!
[Android Apps and Games] mingolianbeef:
Hmmmm that didn't happen to me.! What ROMr u running
[Android Apps and Games] fr4nk1yn:
This is really good. If there was a way to hide the status bar, without XPMods base distorting on my kindle fire, this could fool quite a few people.
[Android Apps and Games] jerryhou85:
This is epic. Hope it works with CM9. :D
[Android Apps and Games] dodgebizkit:
does this need a rooted phone?

Sorry for the ignorant question - but up til now with ICS being finaly an "up-to-par" (by my standards) and there actualy being hardware good enough to run it really nicely, ive always hated using android, hated the android experience completely, but now im thinking of getting my first android phone (galaxy s3) in a month or so and am wondering if i can use this kind of thing on it without rooting... im hoping not, thats the one thing i really waant out of android that i cant get on my iphone or windows phone, the really crazy apps like this without needing a jailbreak or a custom rom/interim unlock, those things make the phones very unstable in my experience and prefer to keep them stock
[Android Apps and Games] curodot:
Wow. It's fun using a whole new type of launcher every once in a while.

Though there have been apps that I can't open but I guess it's to be expected since the launcher is still in beta stage. :)
[Android Apps and Games] jcsy:
THANKS

trying now
[Android Apps and Games] Intellectua1:
I love it.. Only problem is when I launch the app it automatically goes to landscape mode and half the screen is cut off.. I can't figure out why... Galaxy Note running The Only One From..
[Android Apps and Games] mingolianbeef:
I'm rooted, but the app doesn't state that it needs root

no probs :) feel free to hit the thx button lol

The app is built to be like xp and just like pc screens it needs landscape.!
[Android Apps and Games] thoha:
nice launcher, so far so good.
[Android Apps and Games] nazfalas:
This is really great, but tough to use on my Nexus One's Screen. Would love to have a long-press function for right click, though.

Really feels amazingly like Windows XP. :D
[Android Apps and Games] chismay:
this is happening with me too, every time i turn the display on or o i get windows sound? lov the sound just not every time i display switch. great launcher though :D
[Android Apps and Games] Theonewithideas:
This is not available for HVGA?
[Android Apps and Games] wickedankit007:
Wow that is cool i was fooling my gf with this app
[Android Apps and Games] scayre32:
Nice work

Would be cool if 'My Pictures' opened the gallery.
[Android Apps and Games] mingolianbeef:
Ummm YMMV, I use an HVGA 3vo so I couldn't tell you

did it to my grandma and now she despises her iPhone ;) lmao

May be a future implementation. Email TF and see what they say.! :)
[Android Apps and Games] koreanschoolkid:
I'm not really sure by what you mean by "unstable" but the launcher does not require root. I have unrooted and launched with no problems and rooted and launched with no problems.

I bought a my touch 4g for my gf on ebay. they sold it as unlocked. How can i verify that as she already has tmobile and I have boost. is there a dialer code to check for this?

thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
You test it by placing a different carrier's SIM in the device and seeing if it works (you get signal, ability to make a call, etc.).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endeavour123:
You can get an unlock code online. You enter the IMEI of your device and websites (I can only find those that charge for it) will give you the code to unlock it.

You can also contact T-Mobile, but I don't know if they'll give it to you.

I think s=off also removes the lock.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
S-OFF does not carrier unlock a device. The OP's device is supposedly already unlocked, but they just want to test if it really is.
[HTC One V] ryanlow134:
Ok... so... its released... I've dowloaded it, and started using it...

BUT!

it seems that i can only sync files to and from my phone storage... I can't seem to change the setting to Memory Card... :confused:
[HTC One V] mysdavey:
Go into Sync Manager and click your device up to the right. Now to the left you should have a menu with two choices, "Synchronise" and "Edit" (or something similar, my version is translated). Under "Edit" you can change where to sync.

Hope it helps.
[HTC One V] ryanlow134:
te problem is there... i can't select anything else except the phone storage...
[myTouch 4G General] Metalingus903:
I guess I'm one of those people, I buy a phone and I will never buy a case. My reasoning...I bought a phone for xxx.xx, I want to look at my phone not a case! :P

Anyway, I never bought a case for this phone, it was sexy. I have dropped this phone in almost every angle possible, every surface I've walked. No, I'm not that wobbly, just happens over the period of time :P

I even dropped it screen first on a pavement. This phone remains intact, barely any scratches and with every new rom I install, god I fall in love again(or something like that xD).

Just curious, is it just me..or is every MT4G built so damn strong?
[myTouch 4G General] ronin178:
+ 1

Have owned mine since it first came out, have dropped it a million times, always holding my breath expecting the screen to crack or something crazy like it won't turn on anymore, but it just keeps taking it like a champ. No case also, battle wounds to prove it...have seen friends drop their phones (not mt4gs) relatively soon after purchasing them and cracking screens...thought I was just lucky with my drops so far but lets me relax a bit knowing I'm not the only one....
[myTouch 4G General] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Back when I was delivering auto and truck parts, I'd keep my phone on my leg (for GPS) and forget about it when I got out of my truck on occasion. Its fallen glass first on some rocky gravel, dropped out of cars, it even has fallen down the stairs... the back doesn't look very pretty lol but my screen is still nice and responsive and everything works so that's fine by me.

Sent from my aospX Glacier with a FrostedCherry on top ;)
[myTouch 4G General] astanley4:
Its a tough phone, I've put this phone threw a lot and it has lasted longer then any phone I've ever owned. I've cracked a Samsung and Nokia screen in my pocket. I've dropped this off ladders and phone still looks new and everything still works
[myTouch 4G General] PiX3L-_-ViRu5:
I agree. I have dropped mine so many times yet still intact with a lot of scratches on back of it lol

MyTouch is like a vagina, they can take a beating.

Thank you, I'm here all weekend :)
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
*pounding

Beating vaginas is considered bad form. ;)
[myTouch 4G General] PiX3L-_-ViRu5:
True. Thank you very much for auto correction +1 :P
[myTouch 4G General] DKMikey:
I don't understand how all of you end up dropping your MT4Gs that often. I have had this phone for about 1.5 years and dropped it once, and then I got a case for it (slipped out of my pocket while taking it out). Never dropped it again.

Then again, I'm glad to know that if I ever do drop it again, it will take the impact like a champ.
[myTouch 4G General] WaKaJo:
yea my phone has fallen so many times without a case and has never taken any damage to the screen. My friend on the other hand, got a glacier about a year ago and the screen was completely smashed when it fell off his lap while he was sitting on the floor.
[myTouch 4G General] chssoccerplayer:
You guys will get a kick out of this then. Like others here, I've dropped it, thrown it(accidentally), all without little more than a scratch on the back. While sitting at a table once, I knocked my phone against my forehead and heard a pop. Looked at my phone and had obliterated my front glass. Must've caught the perfect spot. Haha.
[myTouch 4G General] myrdhyn:
Yeah, I dropped mine a million times with nothing but misc. scratches and such. Slipped out of my hand today while checking the mail, fell face first onto the driveway, and the screen was obliterated. Fortunately, I've got a warranty exchange overnighted to me, so I'll be back up and running tomorrow :D
[myTouch 4G General] cal3thousand:
The Beast

My friend and I joke that this phone is "the Beast".

It takes a beating and keeps coming back for more. He even started intentionally throwing his phone on the ground it and still rocks it strong. :D
[myTouch 4G General] aesanchez9:
Anyone experience the battery cover peeling. I know my phone gets hot now that I am running custom rom but I started noticing that the back cover is peeling and don't know if it causing the phone to get hotter or is caused by it. and as far as dropping the phone i could only consider dropping it twice the other times have been dropped in a carpet which doesn't do much except get the battery door out. Like the previous comment this phone is a beast
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Yeah, it's a common issue. The coating comes off. It looks pretty nice if you peel it all off. I doubt ot's a heat issue
[myTouch 4G General] jjbadd385:
Slightly off subject..mine don't break..& while comparing it to several newer handsets earlier today...only a larger screen looked more inviting, otherwise the Glacier is still a great phone.
[myTouch 4G General] jjbadd385:
Really? Mine isn't peeling and looks to be a good sturdy paintjob..
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Double poster! Lol.

Yeah my wife and I both are experiencing this. There is also a thread about scraping if off after it starts peeling because they seemed to have put that top layer on as an after-thought. So it's common enough.
[myTouch 4G General] nuclearbroccoli:
Let's see...

Dropped face first on concrete. Replaced scratched screen protector.

Dropped face first on concrete (again).

Chrome surround came loose. Snapped it back no problem.

Dropped on hardwood floor and then accidentally kicked across the room, rebounding off my coffee table and into my end table.

No damage.

I love this phone...

Thinking of upgrading to an Amaze this fall. Going to miss this one. (Though I might keep it as a backup phone. Haven't decided yet..)
[myTouch 4G General] lepermessiahe2:
Had mine since it came out too. No screen protector, dropped few times and still works prefect.
[myTouch 4G General] xnoobiex:
I pretty much have a lot of friends with the same phone as mine (MT4G) I've seen many painful things, my friend who has one slammed his phone on a corner desk repeatedly and yet it didn't have a scratch or bump, I dropped my phone many times too. When I herd my cousin broke her mytouch I was shocked because I thought it was impossible to break it. Then I realized she broke a lot of her phones such as the sensation, iphone 3gs, iphone 4, G1 and broke a cheap phone and dropped her last phone in the toilet. She has a iPhone4S now and i hope she doesn't break that one ;-:
[myTouch 4G General] mbstang:
My wife left hers on the roof of the car, we heard it slide off when we pulled onto the highway, i picked up the 3 pieces of it (back and battery came off) in between cars going by, only a small scratch on the corner, Ive dropped mine a bunch also, only a few nicks in 1.5 years of owning it
[myTouch 4G General] Hinouchi:
Let see, hip height drop, face down, not a stretch cause of the TPU case.

Got out of the car and the phone fell out of my jacket pocket, landed in the puddle, dry up the phone for 24 hours, no problem.

and few more drop here and there still going strong. :victory:

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 PM ----------

LOL I think she just wanted a upgrade, and break it intentionally ... lol no phone can survive an intentionally "Drop" ... maybe the Nokia ..
[myTouch 4G General] brcakba:
I drop my phone daily the only thing that happen is batter comes out and I droped this phone from 2nd floor on to the concrete and nothing happened
[myTouch 4G General] kylephillips66:
My mt4g has been through some pretty intensive abuse in a shop setting. It has a few scratches on the screen housing but nothing on the glass itself. The back cover is peeling, but considering the abuse its pretty respectable
