[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AssassinsLament:
I was having this issue also, and my issue was fixed by doing two things.

1) In facebook (website), under "Account Settings -> Apps" I deleted HTC Sense (basically revoking HTC Sense access)

2) In Android "Settings -> Accounts & sync" I deleted Facebook, then readded it and made sure Sync Contacts was checkmarked.

HTC Sense should ask again to be allowed access to Facebook. Once accepting, the contact's profile pictures started trickling in.

The thing is if you're running a custom rom, the rom dev may not have included "Facebook_Client.apk" and "FacebookEngine.apk" which are essential to syncing facebook with htc sense.

thanks a lot...deleting the app from facebook and the phone fixed it...appreciate your help!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kevinsturf:
Thanks for the tips, I was wondering why the syncing didn't work because I had to go into each contact and link them individually, which of course was a pain

every time i try to use it it says "the contacts database seems to be busy. please try again later " !! does anybody knows what is the problem ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fasty:
This seems to be a regular stupid problem in Android phones.

I had to change my SIM card to get a micro-sim for the GS3.

Now, my existing number is working again with the micro SIM, but the number apparently isn't actually STORED in the SIM card itself.

So, as far as the phone status is concerned, the number remains UNKNOWN.

It's not such a big deal, but a few apps do want it to be there.

Is there any way to change the number in the SIM, apart from taking it out and stuffing it in a Blackberry just to change it, etc ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizky77:
did u back up your contacts on Google if so import your contacts from there
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fasty:
Thanks for the reply rizky, but I have no problem with contacts - I've sync'ed all those no problem. It's my own phone number that's the issue.

In the ideal world, my own phone number should be saved in a special part of the SIM card (different to contacts). I believe that sometimes the network operator sends a special type of text message to update it if you get a new card. Unfortunately, my new card didn't get updated, so although the phone works OK, my GS3 doesn't actually know it's own number.

I can READ the number as "unknown" in the phone status screen, but it is not possible to edit it in Android.

This is not a setting in stock android devices. You usually find the setting in cyanogen roms under call settings.

There are apps on the market that can write your number to your sim card. They have varying success
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fasty:
I presume that they need root access though, don't they?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeChannon:
Android, setting Own number / My Phone Number Galaxy SIII

First, to see if your phone knows your number go to:

Settings -> About Device -> Status -> My phone number

Often it's wrong if you transferred your number from another SIM or is simply unrecognized perhaps because it's a new SIM and it has never been entered.

To correct it:

There is an app. on the market "My Phone Number" but this frequently won't work on the SIII so,

If you use cyanogen six and above

You will have an option to enter or change your own number. Settings -> Call Settings -> Additional Settings -> My phone number
​

If you are not using Cyanogen

A simple way to correct the number grab an old "dumb" phone. The number is stored on the SIM card, so you need to remove you Galaxy SIII SIM and put it in the old phone.

(you can use a Micro SIM adapter or in some cases you can just tape the card in the correct position if it is an open slot)

Older basic phones often have an option to change/enter "special numbers" including "My Number"

Most often the option is under Contacts, Options, Special Numbers although depending on the model you may need to hunt around for the setting.

​

It is worth correcting this if it is missing or incorrect because some apps and contact features rely on the number being correctly entered.

So I just picked up a skyrocket and I went to update OTA and it downloaded the update and when it went to restart to install the update the phone booted into clockwork. I wasnt able to find a thread for this specific device about it so I am asking here now. MOD if there is one please point me in the right direction. I did notice that there is no att bloatware on the device. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] promiseofcake:
Terminal editor, type su, press enter, see what happens.

Other clues: presence of Superuser app.

You have a custom recovery also which will need to be ODINed away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] didozer:
Yes, it does have superuser. As far as Terminal editor/ODINed i'll be honest I have no idea what you are talking about. First sammy device that I have had long enough to keep and want to keep. Use to HTC branded devices. But thank you I think it is rooted because of the superuser app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prbassplayer:
Questions should be posted in Q&A. Moved.

Side note: I recommend you read a lot before you mess with it. Although this device seems to be very difficult to hardbrick misusing ODIN can lead to one.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] occupational_hazard:
Go to market download root checker. Run it. If a super user prompt appears, that's a good sign.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] didozer:
Yes it does, superuser prompt comes up. I really would just rather have this back to completly stock running 2.3.6 until the 4.0 update rolls out. Not sure which is better. Rooted or unrooted????? Also am not sure if it has ODIN....I tried to boot into recovery to run ODIN3 and upgrade to 4.0.4 but when trying to power on into bootloader it just vibrates and will not boot until I release the volume up rocker. Other than curiosity the phone works and performs flawlessly. With superuser being installed and after installing titanium I am sure it is rooted. Still not sure what ODIN is (like I said used to the HTC branded phones and never cared about root) Thanks for all the information. Also I am not sure if I will be able to update to 4.0 when the OTA update rolls out, im not concerned about it being rooted or not (have not found a reason to have rooted yet). Anyone know if it can be updated OTA even though it has root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] StolenVW:
Ota will not work with cwm...you need the stock recovery to do an ota......rooted I don't believe matters
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] didozer:
Can I download and install via sd card when the update is available. Only time I have used cwm is on my wifes old eris.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You need stock recovery. You need to read the stickies for a few days before you do anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
Or just keep your phone as is, and wait when ics officially drops, just wait a day and someone will have a flashable zip of it for cwm. Might as well learn the perks of being rooted now and learn your way around the phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] didozer:
Its all set now. Had to figure out the whole Odin thing. Ended up just redoing to software using my computer with a one click method. Can't remember who made it but it was from android central but mad by member on here. So thank you to that mamber Kenny something?? Any was have it flashed to 4.0.4 with no bugs. Everything works perfect and so far battery life is great. I must say that so far I am loving this phone. At first I wasn't sure about going away from my vivid but I can't find any reason to have any regrets. Thanks guys I appriciate your help and input.

Are your drivers installed from the SGS3?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] plaut:
There's no mass storage mode, because apps and data are no longer stored in separate partitions so there's no way to unmount a partition (in order to remount as mass storage on the computer) without borking running processes. Don't know why Samsung/carriers couldn't have included mass storage mode for the external card only (and there's a hack for the international SGSIII (rooted) that does this) but they didn't - only MTP/PTP.

There's a bunch of ways to get at the SD card... you can use any number of free apps to do it, try what vinnyjr suggested, or even just pop the SD card out and plug it into your computer.

I think the bigger problem is the internal storage...

I'm completely aware of the partitioning issue Google created in ICS (see plaut's description above) as it was covered heavily when the GNex was released, but I must admit I forgot about it for a while. Now I'm starting to regret shelling out the extra $50 for the 32GB version when the data is so difficult to access.

Does anyone know of a way to get at the internal storage without having to put stuff on the SD card and manually move it using a file manager?

Why is the data so difficult to access..? I have no problems transferring files to and from and I'm using Windows 8..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Product F(RED):
Yeah I agree. I miss the old USB storage method. Anytime I try to copy a file off of the memory card (in stock [MTP] mode), I get an error. However half the time if I copy and paste it works.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] demarcmj:
Because I'm not talking about the SD card... I'm talking about the internal storage. I don't have my SGSIII yet, so anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but it can't mount the internal storage. And I've also been unable to find 3rd party apps to do it. That is why I said it's difficult to access.

Accessing internal and external memory on T-Mobiel S III

I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S III with 32 GB internal and 64GB external.

The internal memory shows up as the sdcard and the external memory can be found in /mnt/extsdcard.

This is causing problems with many applications that are not aware of this potential.

I use File Expert Pro and though cumbersome to go through the mnt directory it isn't too difficult.

I was thinking of creating a hard link on the pseudo sd card for the external sd card but I'm not sure how Android handles soft and hard links.

I hope someone figures out how to correct the problem at the android level or many application programmers are going to need to fix this in their code.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] cellgeek:
It'd be nice to have UMS (USB Mass Storage), but doesn't look like that's coming anytime soon.

For those that are new to the SGS3, if you're on W7 or W8 you can xfr files if you open the Samsung-SGH-I747 Portable Media device on your Windoz computer while the phone is hooked up to your computer.

Double click and it will expose Card and Phone. Click on either and you should be able to see all the files and do drag and drops to either card. I've been moving files back and forth using this method. You MUST have the SGS3 drivers installed for this to work!

The down side is, if you have applications that sync from your desktop, like Ewallet, that expect a UMS connection - they don't work anymore. Or at least I haven't figured out how to make them work.

That definitely sucks. :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] djintrigue808:
For those of you looking to transfer files from your Mac, download Android File Transfer and install that. Plug your phone in and enable camera mode (don't know why its camera mode) and you should be able to transfer files through Android File Transfer, external and internal SD Card. :laugh:

One thing that has always drove me nuts about this phone is google voice. On my captivate it was cake to setup. Install the app log in, and go through setup and your good. On my vivid however you get an error when trying to switch voicemail provider to google voice. There is a workaround and I did that, it forwards voicemails to google voice instead of the default AT&T number. However the app doesn't sync right, it never notifies me anymore. I think att purposely hosed it so we had to use there crappy paid visual voicemail service.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] xJU1C3x:
What was the work around? Is like to use GV as voicemail.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
See my previous post. Pretty much if yours isn't notifying than uninstall it and reinstall. Then go through set up as usual. After it fails to change your settings, go in and change your forwarding numbers from atts voice mail number to your Google voice number and should work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] xJU1C3x:
So does the call then forward to GV as a call, or does it forward to GV as just the voicemail? I'm still hazy on the subject. I've already changed my forwarding numbers.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TerryUK98:
Okay, first of all I know, I'm a total noob. I have followed these forums a long time and have successfully rooted a few phones. One of which was my nexus s 4g. I was trying to unroot the phone so I could get ics. This is when I ran into problems and right now I just want to be able to get my phone working again. Right now I am stuck on the Miui boot up screen and no matter how long I wait it stays on that screen. If I do a battery pull and hold down power and vol up I can get into the bootloader screen with the information as follows: fastboot mode, product name-Herring, HW Version Rev 34, Bootloader version-D720SPAKE1, Baseband version-D720SPAKE1, Carrier info, SPR, serial number-37308B81276A00EC, Lock State-locked. Then the different options I can choose are reboot bootloader, reboot, recovery, power off. If I choose reboot, it takes me back to the mius screen and stays there. If I choose recovery, I get the triangle with the exclamation point. I then hold power and up volume again and I get a screen that says Android system recovery <3e> with reboot system now, apply update from sd card wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. I have tried all of these as well with no luck. When I go to apply update from sd card I get matrix-cfs_v15.5 zip, root.zip, update.zip and then what looks like apps such as Alarms/, Android/,MIUI?, etc. If I try to select any of the first ones such as matrix-cfs_v15.5 zip, I get Install /sdcard... , finding update package..., opening update package..., verifying update package..., E.signature verification failed, Installation aborted. Then it gives me the system recovery options again. Any help would be appreciated.
