[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] tailsthecat3:
Have they fixed -officially- the battery drain issue, where 34ma was entered instead of 3.4?

And what's with the screen waking up when receiving a text message? No option to disable this?

I'm also interested in whether or not the backlights bleed through like they did on the white galaxy s 2(e4gt).

Might get the verizon gs3 over my gnex but...anyone know anything but an official Sammy 4.1 JB?

Thanks.

Very simple question since i always see people asking this.

Can you use your GB 2.3.6 backup of titanium Backup when you are in ICS or do you have to reinstall all your apps manually and manually download them all again from the marketplace ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
You can restore your apps once on ICS using Titanium, but never system stuff. However, you might run into problems if you do that, depending on your ICS Rom. It's better to do a clean app install instead. Here's what you could do to make the process quick and painless:

1. download and install any explorer with root permissions if you don't have it already

2. create a folder called 'Apps' (or 'My Apps' or whatever) on your SD card

3. go back to /data/app folder (this is where all user apps are located)

4. multi select everything you plan to use on ICS, then 'copy'

5. browse to the /Apps folder on your SD card, then 'paste' - now you have backed up everything you need

6. flash ICS Rom of your choice

7. download and install Android Assistant from Playstore, run it

8. AA has 'Batch Install' option, tap it; AA will automagically find all your backup apps and install them in one go

9. you're done

After you do the above, you can then restore data only (not apps) from TB.

That way all your app content, saved games etc. should be as they were on GB.

I am so glad i made this thread because now when i get asked this question over and over again i can just reference them to this thread
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
You can do it with titanium too.

After flashing ICS, just install titanium and select batch option - Restore missing application.

Now check the list manually, if any application that was part of system application on GB, just un tick that.

Now this will restore only user appl safely.

PS : I have marked that If you restore Opera browser with app+data option, it getting crash. in that case just wipe data for opera, and will work fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChromJ:
Does this procedure works the other way.

Your back up was created while you are on ics, and the restoring while you are on gb

Titanium Backup is the most powerful backup tool on Android

I have read the app description and i know some valuable things : you may follow the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=en

"You can backup, restore, freeze (with Pro) your apps + data + Market links. This includes all protected apps & system apps, plus external data on your SD card. You can do 0-click batch & scheduled backups. Backups will operate without closing any apps (with Pro). You can move any app (or app data) to/from the SD card. You can browse any app's data and even query the Market to see detailed information about the app."

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Make sure you flash stock gb first with pc odin, don't flash anything else from ics, you'll brick for certain.

Then you need to root and cwm and perform full wipe under gb before flashing cm9.

There are various snote alternatives in the play store which I'm sure others will be able to advise you of, but no toucwizz Samsung apps will run under cm rom.

I wanted to see if anyone else is having this problem or if a solution has been mentioned somewhere.

Basically when I receive a call, the contact name and information doesn't show up. Instead, it just displays the number. In the call logs, the names also don't show and I can only see numbers. I installed exdialer and everything shows as should be with names in the program, but the problem is when calls come in the display defaults to samsung's dialer so I still can't see who is calling.

I'm on a deodexed LF6 stock rom. Any help and / or suggestions greatly appreciated!

I've chosen to display all contacts from all accounts. No contacts on sim but I've also checked to display that as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wasubi:
Double check you haven't doubled up on your contacts. I recently updated my uncles S2 to ICS, and he had this issue with only numbers being displayed. when i took a look further into it via the contacts menu, i found multiple entries for the one person. For some reason that was enough to confuse the phone and only display number only for calls and texts. Did you do a contact back up when switching to the custom rom, or anything contact related when switching? Even any kind of back up you made, when restoring, could have done this. But most times ive seen this issue, its due to have one too many of the same contact!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
Have you tried choosing just one at a time??

Hello all :)

I have a rather weird question...it seems Samsung is abit late in introducing bigger capacities of any new device they make (they introduce 16GB first then the rest later, or in some regions maybe never, like where i live).

I was thinking....upon releasing of the 32GB or 64GB versions of the s3 in other markets....i could buy one online and have it delivered to me here in dubai...then ill grab the middle east version of the latest ROM from sammobile and update it via odin....so as to enable further official updates via kies for my region.

Is this possible ? I mean will it work ?? :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jameslfc5:
Why not just get a large capacity class 10 memory card and it saves the hassle? :)

There are apps like Directory Bind that can move data to the sd card but have the data still show up as a folder in the internal memory. Works perfectly and it's a lot cheaper if you compare buying sd cards to buying a phone with more memory.

Hello.

I have a Motorola XT531, rooted. I wanted to make a full backup and I installed ClockworkMod ROM Manager. When I expected the phone to reboot into recovery mode, the screen went completely blank.

I took off the battery and put it back. When I press the power button, the phone vibrates but nothing more happens, the screen stays blank. The same happens if I press and hold any of the three h/w buttons (volume +, vol -, camera) when powering on (I don't know exactly which one should enter recovery).

If I connect the phone to the PC thru the USB cable, it's not recognized ("adb devices" shows nothing attached).

So, is it bricked?

Hey.

Anyone know how to add new themes/skins to HOX without the need of root? :confused:

I have searched but cant find it anywhere on how to do it, except through golauncherx or other such apps.

Cheers.

[HTC One X] toolhas4degrees:
wihtout having root, you are unable to modify skins and or framework of a rom. The Only way you can have skins or themes on stock is to have a aftermarket or other apk file that does not rely on the system's framework or resources. Try fancy widget, hd widgets and different launchers, because that is pretty much all that will work on a stock odexed rom.
[HTC One X] XpayneX:
But there shud be some some way to do it yeh? Because you can download new skins from htc market so i was hoping you could put some in urself as well.

Anyways thanx a lot for replyin :good:

[HTC One X] asefzaman:
Yesterday I came across a HTC One S skin in Market,its called Beats Audio by Mcluvin Mods(just search for Beats Audio Sense 4)...So that goes to show that developers are probably working on skins for the One X which can be installed without rooting your One X.I guess all we have to do now is wait patiently till they start launching them.
[HTC One X] Whistler23:
Isn't it just a case of downloading a launcher and applying a theme via that?
[HTC One X] asefzaman:
For themes...yes!but getting 3rd party skins to work on htc one x is different story altogether.You need to flash them and need root access.....
[HTC One X] Whistler23:
But that isn't what the OP is asking?

I also didn't realise that you could use nearly any theme with Apex Launcher. All the GoLocker ones work I've read. I haven't tried any, but there is loads on the market for Apex, and I haven't tried any of these as I've made my own.
[HTC One X] asefzaman:
I think what he is asking for is something similar to this..."http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1641505 "...and you need root to apply it.But on other android you can simply install it in the form of .apk without having to root.

But then again,u might be right,its hard to tell who is aware of other mods out there and who isn't.
