[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rajveerrockz17:
Developers can you please port the premium suite applications available in the Galaxy Note such as S Memo and S Note. It would be an awesome feature in our Galaxy S3. Please.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] jesus_c:
I have pre-installed s memo in my sgs 3
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rajveerrockz17:
But the Premium suite S memo from the Galaxy Note have a lot of other special features available other than our galaxy S3 S memo.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] danarama:
"Premium" suggests that you pay a premium to get the note with advanced features. Therefore there may be legal issues surrounding porting that.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JJEgan:
Reads as a Samsung update for large screen products .

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rajveerrockz17:
It's not a paid app but it was included in the update of Galaxy Note to ICS. The features of the apps were increased in the update. So I think it won't be illegal in porting the apps.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] rajveerrockz17:
friends found this while surfing around in the Galaxy Note forum

https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0BxadWqrhgc33c2lQYzRBb1Npc0E&export=download

This is the premium suite app from the Galaxy Note and it works in our S3 on a normal install without root. But some work has to be done in adjusting the resolution so that it looks perfect on our S3.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] hashbrown:
Can anyone confirm that the premium suite does indeed work well on the S III? I have the AT&T Note and use the upgraded S Note app and S Memo app everyday. Especially "formula match" which is part of the productivity tools in the updated S Note app. It connects to Wolfram Alpha to show the different solutions to whatever equation or science problem you hand write. I'm thinking of moving to the S III but cant if it doesn't support these apps which Ive become dependent on. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insanchen:
All, today here in indonesia, there was notification to update my phone software, so i clicked update then it started to download "update package" with about 22MB.

when the download finished, i click update then the phone rebooted.

the next screen is look like android robot which it's stomach opened and there something in it's stomach. below that robot, there's a update loading process.

when the process is about 20%, the robot was fall down and above the stomach there's a red warning sign then the phone rebooted again..

I was scared that my phone would be bricked i thought, but it didn't..

but when my phone startup, it's said software update failed..

maybe anyone can explain what's wrong?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No firmware details so a look in my crystal ball says its a rooted phone .

OTA updates will not install on rooted phones . Flash stock via ODIN .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insanchen:
sorry forget to tell, it's yes that my phone rooted.. i'm using CF root 6.3 with CWM..

5 minutes ago, i did full unroot using superSU and i try to update again.. but no hope, failed again..

the update detail said it's only improve stability..

if you tell me to flash using odin, then how to download the update package manually?

sorry, i'm noob here with worst english, haha..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zool80me:
I also face a same problem, malaysia cwm 5.8.4.5, also tried with kies, halfway keis said `time out`, where can we download the update n flash with odin?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zanith:
I had a similar problem, I had to move the update.zip out of /cache/fota/ and then use cwm to update it.

Had to re-root too so you're prolly better off just installing it all via odin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Firmware

Download via CHECKFUS.

Or from the stock rom thread on XDA

Or sammobile.com

Or via Google search engine .

How is the community doing?

With so many apps available in the android market (google play) I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread with peoples top 5 cant live without favorite apps.

You can include any app with the exception of games there is a separate thread for that already, just make sure to note free or paid after the app name. Maybe we can bring apps to light that not many people dont know exist but are great!

Ill start my top 5 cant live without apps are:

1. Teamviever - free - productivity app that allows me to remotely connect to computers and help others diagnose issues

2. Work shifts free - free - app that keeps track of worked hours, pay days, etc

3. eBay - free - app that allows me to buy, sell on ebay

4. Dropbox - free - great for backing up files or just having extra storage

5. XDA premium - paid ($1.49) - keeps me connected to xda while mobile

[General Questions and Answers] AceSoLo:
Ok. So I'm currently running Team D.I.R.T'as CM9 Port and I realized that I could not see many of the symbols that come on the final symbols page of the keyboard. (Such as the heart, spades,clubs etc.) After changing the font a few times I was able to see a few more of the symbols. So my question is does anyone know a font that will let you see all of the symbols ? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Tortel1210:
Hi everyone.

As you all know, Samsung distributes source code as tarballs which isn't the best way to redistribute kernel source code

git is the best modern way to work with Linux Kernel sources, designed by Linus himself in this purpose.

So, cdesai made an organization on Github for that. It contains the kernel source for all the variants that have posted source so far.

https://github.com/sgs3

And yea, that means source code has been released, head on to http://opensource.samsung.com/

Kernel Sources :

https://github.com/sgs3/SGH-T999V_Kernel

Branches :

master :- branch you should use(for developers), will contain fixes and more in the future

If anyone wants to commit any fixes / anything else, let me know, and we can add you to the organization

How to Build :

Get the source:

git clone git://github.com/sgs3/SGH-T999V_Kernel.git
cd SGH-T999V_Kernel
git checkout master

Tell it to use our config:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain m2_att_defconfig

Build:

make CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain

or

make -j `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "^processor" | wc -l` CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain

The compiled kernel is arch/arm/boot/zImage

(Also note: Im posting the source in a much easier to get way, but I dont have T-Mobile, so I wont be doing builds for you guys)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zaventh:
Very handy, thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pig Vomit:
The T999V is not the correct model for T-Mobile.

The correct source is for the T999 (no V). I believe the V is for WIND Mobile in Canada.

You can find the opensource for the T999 here:

http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=search&searchValue=SGH-T999

Not complaining about the original post, just want to make sure everyone is using the correct files and on the same page development-wise.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SL:
The V is for Windmobile.

The baseband/(kernel ?) is not compatible. (found out after flashing a t mobile custom rom and the phone now has a unrecognised baseband.

Just bought gta for the one dollar let it download its crap then it just closed. Now every time I try to open it my screen goes into landscape and the screen goes black it hangs there for about 6 seconds then just closes back to home no force close message or anything. Tried clearing data and switching kernels same result.... someone help please
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Have you tried disabling "Force GPU Rendering" under Development in settings? Not sure if this is your issue or not, but that caused a lot of issues with other apps so it's worth a shot.

Personally GTAIII works fine on my Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shockem:
Have you rebooted and tried. And try this as well. Delete the game data in SD card/android/data/com.rock star...

Then let it redownload. It should work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Product F(RED):
It runs fine (or rather ran, because I just got the S3) on my Galaxy Nexus CDMA. It's the same hardware as the GSM one. Sometimes, yes, it will start up and hang on a black screen in landscape. You can just kill it and relaunch it (easiest way is if you turn on the option to kill by holding the back softkey). A bad download will also screw with the game; even if it launches and runs, you will run into glitches that break the game and might make it impossible to progress. Delete the game data (/sdcard/Android/data/com.rockstar.gta3/) and redownload.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilerseberle14:
Yes I have rebooted and I never had the force gpu option enabled so I guess my last option is to redownload the data for it, thanks everyone will get back in a while if it worked or not
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WoodroweBones:
I had this happen as well. When I got the game I started it up and it asked to download the extra files. I started that process and then went on with responding to texts/emails, etc. and when I tried to go back to GTAIII I had the exact same issues. Even force closing the app and rerunning it would give me the same problem. I had to delete the cache data for the app (which means redownload all those extra files again) and this time I started the download and just set my phone down and watched until it was completed. Then it worked
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilerseberle14:
Yup a redownload fixed it, thank-you everyone
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewarhol:
Here are the step by step things I have done. (I apologize in advance for mispelled words or wrong versions)

- My computer is operating windows vista. I used Kindle Fire Utility to root Kindle Fire on 6.2.2

- When 6.3.1 came out I upgraded KFU to 0.9.6

- I re-rooted and installed TWRP and FFF as wells as Go Launcher

- I then decided I wanted a stock Kindle Fire

- I did master reset under the options menu on the kindle. That took out Go Launcher. I was trying to unroot with out researching , so I thought if I went under TWRP and did a factory reset that would take care of it. (No need to yell for not researching, wife has done that)

- Now I’m locked at the white/orange kindle fire screen

- I still get the blue/white kindle fire screen to show up with v 1.4a in top right corner.

- I’ve tried normal/recovery boot, no luck there.

- I’ve tried holding power button 10-30 seconds several times, no go there

- Under device manager the kindle is listed as android phone and adb composite device (?) Not sure that’s the exact wordage but it’s the one with composite in it.

- KFU shows offline, unknown root status.

- While stuck at the white/orange screen I am not able to acces the Kindle Fire sd card

- If I go into TWRP I am able to mount the SD card and access on the computer

- I downloaded 6.3.1 from Amazon. Changed it to a zip file and put it on the sd card.

- I wiped cache and delvack (spelling?)

- When I try installing 6.3.1 zip in TWRP I get an error message.

- Do I need to wait for another amazon update?

- What else can I try?

- If I need to do line commands, please make it as basic is possible. I have read the beginners postings form kinfauns. Postings 1 & 2 made complete sense. Posting 3 went over my head.

- Command lines I have tried “adb devices” no devices are listed (it’s blank). “fastboot devices” nothing happens, “fastboot device” gives a lot of command options. Not sure where to go from there.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Sounds like your system software is broken if a factory reset in TWRP won't get it to boot normally.

What's the name of the zip file before you copy it over to the /sdcard? When you look at it with the Windows explorer, the file icon should look like a folder with a zipper down the middle of it. If it doesn't have that, you haven't changed the name of the file properly and the file suffix is wrong. Do a google search on changing the file suffix on Windows for info.

What's the error when you install the zip file?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewarhol:
I downloaded the 6.3.1 file from Amazon's site. It had a long file name so I changed it to update. It has .bin followed behind it. I then right clicked on it, send to, compressed zipped folder. It does have the zipper folder.

I had the mount mode enabled through TWRP and copied it to the sd card and put it under the TWRP FOLDER.

Went back to the main menu in TWRP, install. Found the update file, started install. Started to install then stops. Can't remember wordage exactly, kindle is at home right now, but there's red letters that say error.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregory99mar:
If I were you, I would install android sdk from google. then, use the sdk to install android tools and android platform tools. Make sure you installed to android sdk to the root file. Use twrp to reboot into bootloader. Plug in the kindle to usb. Then type this in (command prompt):

cd..

cd..

cd root

cd android-sdk

cd platform-tools

fastboot shell

reboot

Give that a try and tell me if it works.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewarhol:
I assume the first 2 "cd.." are to get me to the correct folders where android sdk is installed?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hashbang173:
I think you had the .bin and then compressed it to. Zip that made it compressed it twice

You should

Download the kindle update

Open it up in notepad or something

Do save as

Save as update.zip

Then move it to sdcard/

Then flash in TWRP

if you find something I posted helpful please thank me
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ewarhol:
I did initially try just the .bin file without the .zip, but I couldn't find it. Once as a .zip file I could find it.

I downloaded 6.3.1 from Amazon's site again. I tried opening in notepad, but it locks up. Tried wordpad, my save as options: rich text format (rtf), text document, text document-ms-dos format, Unicode text document. Don't see anything for .zip

I got stuck in a nasty bootloop which Gregory was kind enough to help me out of by giving me the link to the Amazon Update. I was able to flash that and go back to stock. I then, possibly foolishly, thinking that I had lost root (did I?) ran the KFU utility which got stuck halfway through and now I am stuck on the white/orange kindle fire screen. Is there anyway to get out of this? I know, I suck. Your help and expertise is greatly appreciated.

[NFC Hacking] boomerbubba:
I'm wondering if an NFC tag can be used to unlock the Android device -- instead of using the screen pattern lock.

Or does the device need to be unlocked for NFC to function in the first place?

My device would probably be a Galaxy S III running under ICS, but I am guessing this is a general property.

Sure would be handy, in the car for example.
[NFC Hacking] 3RR0R404:
I've heard about a mod on GS3 to use NFC tags without unlocking your devices but I can't tell you if a NFC tag can unlock it...

Anyway it could be really problematic if you can unlock all phones with NFC Tag...
[NFC Hacking] boomerbubba:
Aren't NFC tags programmed to be phone-specific, linked to the NFC chip onboard?

BTW, I just found this related thread, which started off asking about screen-off state, but the discussion also covered locked state.

I am thinking this probably can't be done.
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
No, NFC tags are just passive tags that react to the NFC antenna in devices.

They can enable/disable the lock screen (that's in the next update of NFCTL) but it's "hacky" in a sense. It works but it's not really "disabling" it as much as it's telling keyguard don't show it I'm a trusted app and need to display data.

The screen has to be unlocked for NFC to function. With that said you could modify the source of the NFC service to alter this, rebuild and push this to a device (Assuming no signature issues). It's pretty clear in the source where the restriction is (it checks if it's unlocked before turning on).
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:

its likely

As i know, the NFC Tags delivered with Sony's NXT Series can only be used when the Screen i lit up (Xperia P), maybe there is a developer out there who can implement such a function so you can use NFC without lighting up your Phone...
