[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] maladju:
I just loaded it up and it says basically hasn't been verified/ allowed in my country (US) or carrier (AT&T)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] meleii:
Ok i was curious about that because i was led to believe that att blocked the use of it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] xTristinx:
It is possible to get it working by side loading a hack verson of google wallet as i did it and it worked but you have to have cm9 ! Which the atnt verson doesnt have yet.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Diviance:
Root should be sufficient to have the hacked version of Google Wallet working, a custom rom like CM9 should be completely unnecessary.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] neverends:
the only carrier to support Google Wallet is Sprint. you have NFC capability which you can use to use a hacked Google wallet but no AT&T supported Google Wallet.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] xTristinx:
Thats what i thought but you get stuck on the initializing device stage. Well It is the international version i have so try it on your and lets get the free 10 dollars to as many people as possible :D. On another note... be EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS when using wallet as if you do not delete the data from within the application (not in app manager) you will render your secure element unusable as thats what i did to mine and am currently in the process of RMAing my phone.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] vagelis:
But can you run the wallet, initialize it, load the prepaid google card, and have a transaction?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] pvc_:
You get that error as soon as you load it. In other words, it shuts down as soon as you run it.

How secure or trustworthy is the hacked version?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkhandsome18:
Hello Guys,

I currently have the GS2 and I'm thinking of getting the GS3 but I want a "developmental" review. I say this because there are several reviews on the GS3 but what I really want to know is if it can be hacked, you know customs roms, recovery, etc. I was a bit unfortunate that the GS2 was my first android device and there were so many custom roms, mods, etc that I thought that all android devices were like that. Then I bought the lenovo thinkpad tablet without investigating properly and it was immensely frustrating for me as the bootloader is locked and it took MONTHS to get even get root on that device. You can imagine someone who has a GS2 and flashes any rom he likes and any mod he likes and then having a underperforming stock tablet. So please does the S3 have any bootloader issues, bricking issues, can recoveries be flashed without any problems,etc. Thanks

The S3, like the S2 and S1, is great for modifying, all extremely similar processes.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
I got a little case-crazy after I pre-ordered my white SGS3, and bought a total of 6 cases (for $35 total): 3 different brands of TPU cases, and 1 hard polycarb "Rock Quicksand" case.

I just wanted to post a quick comparison of the TPU cases here, in case it might help someone.

The cases:

Cruzerlite ($10 on Amazon) -- PROS: The most "well made" case of the bunch; sold by a nice guy in the USA; button holes are cut out rather than covered; Andy is on the back! :) CONS: it's the least grippy out of the three :(

S-Line ($2 on Ebay) -- PROS: The diamond/sawtooth pattern on the sides is nice and grippy; CONS: there's a hole on the bottom-right back for something (a lanyard?) that I'll never use and will just let dirt in and cause it to not lay flat; the case is also way "too common".

X-Line ($3 on Ebay) -- PROS: It's slightly (~33%) thinner than the other two, and the grippiest of the bunch overall. CONS: It's solid black (I wasn't able to find translucent gray versions of the X-Line on ebay, so I got black for some variation, but don't like it much. Clear is also available); also too common (if you care)

In the photos below the order is Cruzerlite (smoke), S-line (grey), X-line (black), from left to right and from top to bottom:

In the end, I think I'll be using the translucent android green Cruzerlite case (not pictured) day to day, and the Rock Quicksand for "special occasions".
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mherder:
How long did it take for the cases to get to you from china?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
9 days (to NY)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CZ Eddie:
I ordered three of the Chinese eBay cases for my SIII.

One shipped from California. The other two from China and took two weeks to arrive.

The California one was such a piece of crap that I haven't even tried it yet.

The other two didn't even fit the freaking phone.

Three cases and all three went in the trash can.

Only about $25 down the drain but it adds up.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrvirginia:
i have a cruzerlite sitting on my desk right now. it's awesome! was shipped on mon and i got it yesterday.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
Wow, thanks! A slight design change for added grip would be most welcome.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mrvirginia:
wish i'd known about that coupon code before :p

also, i actually like that it's not extremely grippy. it feels great in hand except i have no phone to put in it yet lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mherder:
My S line just got here, but mine has the covering over the buttons.... unlike yours. It fits pretty well but the buttons are kinda hard to press now. Not really happy with it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] divinewisdom:
Cruzerlite TPU is a good case. I had it for the Galaxy Nexus. The only problem I have is that the clear TPU will turn yellow tint after two months. I just noticed it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rbj13:
Mr Brown, when did you expect the persona cases in?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rbj13:
Thanks. Those cases are awesome and can't wait to get one.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] divinewisdom:
Scotty Brown,

have you heard of the any customer getting yellow tint on the clear TPU? I got the clear one for the galaxy nexus like 2-3 months ago, but now it has a yellow/tea tint to it. Not sure if the clear TPU just oxidize or what, but it doesn't stay clear.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] laxattackdog:
My x-line seems to be a little too loose fitting around the phone. Anyone else with that problem?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Mherder:
My S-line is a little bit loose, not to much... the buttons are IMPOSSIBLE to press though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] divinewisdom:
Thanks Scotty. I sent over some pics.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rbj13:
Scotty, I just got my Cruzerlite Androidified cases and when I put the translucent teal one on my white phone i get these dark blobs where the case is sticking to the back. Do you know of anything to do to keep these blobs from occurring?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ScottyBrown:
The material that the SGSIII is made of is very finicky stuff. Ideally, the whole phone would stick to the back, as the case fits extremely tight on these devices. Also, they take a bit of work to get them positioned just right... I'd suggest trying to work the case a bit until it's perfect and the phone is making full contact with the TPU.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RotaryXperiment7:
im gonna order one today, dropped my brand new white one already :(

few questions

should i get the white or clear for my white phone?

also do u know of any screen protectors that will work with ur cover? thanx!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RotaryXperiment7:
i went ahead and ordered a white one anyway lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rbj13:
I ordered a white one and a translucent teal one. I really like the look of the translucent teal on the white board phone. Also B2G1 is a good code to use to get a free case. As for screen protector I got one coming in the mail so I'm not sure yet.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jiannichan:
Ordered a Cruzerlite case from Amazon last Thursday...still waiting on the package...Even the tracking number shows nothing, been saying the same thing since Friday. I am guessing the package is lost or something...

"A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated."
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bizdady:
I have the S one, got from Amazon. It has a nice grip and its thin but I noticed the charger hole doesnt play well with the usb charger plug.

I like it though, I have in see through colors. I took the white and grey, Wife took purple and blue.
[Nexus One General] Never Follow:
I have a nexus one running ICS. The phone is in good condition the only thing is it has broken power button but the pulling the battery trick works. I want to give the phone away to one of the developers so they can using for testing or whatever. Saying that you are developer without any work posted here on forums will not work. First one to post can have it. It comes with charger and I just put the new OEM battery cover. Please vote.

I'll throw in the 8GB card as well.

Thanks

I don't know how to edit the poll to include INESTAIN but so far he's got 2 votes. Just post post here if you are voting for INESTAIN and I'll keep track. Voting is going to end at 5pm EST today.

Voting is over now, there were 60 votes and zyr3x had the most votes. zyr3x please PM me your address.

Thanks to everyone that voted.

hi,

i would really apreciate if you give it to me for further development here on sense roms. thanks

p.s: my house is in miami

I think the community should vote on who should get it :good:
[Nexus One General] Madflapjack:
i already have one, i think if he gives it to shaky it would make his work easier
[Nexus One General] jumpman707:
or samuaz or zyrex so we can have more ics updates from them. just saying :cool:
[Nexus One General] athost:
Good idea :good:

I vote for zyr3x because he recently broke N1 and can't test the new ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1650686
[Nexus One General] Psychokilz:
My vote goes to a sense rom developer because we currently have two good ICS ROMS, which are good enough to be called daily drivers (Texasice and Dk zero cool). On the other hand, most of our sense rom developers either have no nexus one, or it's defective, therefore it's halting the process of bringing sense 4 to our nexus one.
[Nexus One General] Never Follow:
Can you guys throw couple names and I'll set the poll and by end of day tomorrow whoever gets the most votes will get it. It seems that zyr3x could really use it but lets what see you guys think.

I can fix the power button and ship it to winning developer.

I'm gonna try out AOKP soon. :D
[Nexus One General] tommert38:
Devs with a Desire (shaky156, dk_zero_cool) don't need a Nexus One, as they are almost the same.
[Nexus One General] Kannibalism:
In my opinion this is correct take a look for example at the BCM ICS dk king is doing a version very very good job at creating a nexus one rom by testing on his desire ;)
[Nexus One General] AC DC:
my vote for zyr3x coz he broke his nexus for who ? .for us, people around here in this forum, so he truly deserves it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dtom2444:
Anyone else notice that while listening to music, watching a video, or playing a game and you answer a phone call, after the call the app is closed and you have to reopen it?

The most common situation for me is I have my phone on a holder in my car. I have my Spotify playing off my phone then a phone call comes in. After I hang up, Spotify isn't paused or anything, it's completely closed.

On my old Nexus S 4G, anything I was doing prior to answering a call would immediately resume after I hung up.

Is this a Sense 4 "feature" or is this ICS? Sorry, I had an iPhone 4S for about 6 months so I've been away from Android for awhile.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] waterbound:
Not yet, regularly stream BT, Loaded MP3s, Pandora, Xm etc, calls come and go, in car, out of car, goes right back to where I was previously. Works perfectly actually.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jgalan14:
It happens if you take forever in a call cause of the ways HTC d program multitask background kill but yeah i guess it could be annoying for some people
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nivek64:
No problems so far....

In fact I was on a call for 20 minutes with... you guessed it my mother. Once she hung up, I was able to continue with music. Tried again later when I spoke with a friend on my way home from work. No issue so far.

Also while in the car (not driving this time, my girlfriend was) I was talking and was browsing on the Internet. Still no issues. Thought it was going to clip on the 3G network. Still no LTE yet here, but any day now is the word here.
[Android General] philster16:
Hey guys i was just catching up on some news when i come across this article

'If you think Apple competes with Android, you’re wrong' from ZDnet. Here is a little snippet of it

Apple has never done things like other tech companies. Never. They’ve never fallen prey to analyst opinion or competitor bling. Why should they? They’re the innovators, not the imitators. Apple produces the products like they want them to be–not like Android-designers think they should be. Apple builds them and we buy them by the millions. People camp outside of Apple stores and Apple product retailers to ensure that they get a new Apple device. You don’t really see that with Android products.

The reason is that Apple products have what we want and what we don’t even know that we want until we see it. That’s why Apple is the most successful tech company ever.

after reading the entire article i was not too sure about the guys claims.

but if you could read the article and voice me your opinion on it that would be great

here is the link http://www.zdnet.com/blog/consumerization/if-you-think-apple-competes-with-android-youre-wrong/507
[Android General] 063_XOBX:
I've always hated that this is seen as "common knowledge". Most profitable? Maybe, but I refuse to see Apple as the most successful company when they are only able to maintain a stable of a few specialized devices without a dominant market share in any field (maybe they dominate the tablet space but there is barely any legitimate competition in that area). I mean look at Motorola or Samsung or any other company that literally has it's hands in EVERYTHING tech. They might not dominate any single area, but they ensure no matter what happens they turn a profit in any way possible.
[Android General] mistermentality:
Having read the entire article it sounds as if the writer is a major ios fan and very biased. The articles only actual fact seems to be that people cue for apple products and that's proof they're great.

If apple don't compete with android why take android os features and put them in ios, why sue the most popular android device manufacturers but only those whose profucts challenge apples?

Apple don't innovate much at all anymore and definitely take note of their rivals.

[Android General] MissionImprobable:
ZDnet and Cnet are pretty Apple fanboi heavy, so this isn't surprising at all. The main difference I find between situations with Apple and Android fanbois is that Android enthusiasts tell the fanbois to shut their yappers; very few people who enjoy Apple for what it is tend to shout down the idiots.

There was another article on there not long ago by either that guy or another of their "experts" touting all the reasons that Android just didn't satisfy him, with the main points of contention resulting from him going to Best Buy and saying that Android was somehow at fault for the results of consulting with an unknowledgeable sales member. In short, it is not a site that I trust for anything in the way of editorials.

From the article: "I doubt anyone at Apple says to a coworker, “Hey, dude, did you see my <insert Android-based phone name here>, it has this. We should totally put one of those on the next iPhone.”"

Guess he is unaware of all that iOS 5 and now 6 have blatantly stolen directly from Android and WP. The guy is so clueless it's ridiculous.

Edit: his opening statement shows his lack of grasp on reality. Dinosaurs will die, and to say that a company like Apple doesn't need to worry about competition when Android has the larger market share and it is only increasing is pure idiocy. If guys like that ever sit on the board of any company it is only a matter of time before it inevitably falls apart. It's that kind of thinking that almost destroyed Apple to begin with.

Maybe he's right though and Apple does operate in a vacuum; vacuums are indeed defined by sucking the life out of everything around them.
[Android General] fo.manush:
There is a big difference between true product innovation and marketing hype.

Apple has not innovated as much as that article suggests over the years, they have only utilized smart marketing and community hype to sell their products with very little innovation in their product lines over this time.
[Android General] WJThomas:
Apple innovation = imitation + litigation + hype.

Just look at the iPad. The only thing about the iPad that is up to par it better than the competitors is the display. And that is the only thing that their advertising blitz talks about. They do not come close anywhere else.

If you put lipstick on a pig tho iFanBoys will line up to buy it.
[Android General] AceRoom:
This line makes me laugh. A smartphone user should know exactly what he wants in his product and if he gets more, then it's even better. But according to this line, it makes the writer seem like he wants what Apple wants him to want.

According to the article, Apple has never ever ever taken any ideas from outside. Why should they because they're innovators?

Really??! The writer seems to be unaware of any other technology in the world! Apple didn't invent the mp3 player. Granted, they made a lot of improvements and produced the best selling mp3 player but a majority of the ideas came from other products.

"To worry about the competition is a faux pas"? Then why are they trying to get the Galaxy SIII banned from entering the US. In reality, to not worry about the competition would be the stupidest move any company can take and of course Apple is worried about the competition.

My personal opinion regarding the huge success of Apple is the large user base who keep repeatedly buying Apple products without considering other (Better and cheaper) options, to blindly follow Apple into whatever they do. The writer's clearly reflects this. Another reason is that Apple products are simpler to use and by being so, not easy to customize. This is a big disadvantage for a lot of people, especially gadget freaks. Citing a personal example, I have an iPod 5G and I hated the fact that you could not even change the color theme whereas even cheap mp3 players had that function. I finally ended up putting a custom firmware (Rockbox) on it and was much happier. It even freed me from using iTunes and allowed me to use drag and drop.

My conclusion. The writer is severely misinformed.
[Android General] Danielrogers:
Now it's only my thoughts on the issue.

There is always a competition between companies of the same market. I believe there are kinda regulations of that rivacy, I mean there are rules for companies to implement innovations, etc. Fruct corporation had to survive among all those giants of tech world and even go further. But how can they do it? So, they've started breaking those secret rules (here comes their everyday trials and actions from other companies) and moved forward far as they could. As you can see, Samsung, and other giants were ready to lanch their super smartphones and tablets, they did it soon, very soon after after Apple released their ones. So there are many variants on how it works. Some of them:

- Apple breaks rivacy rules

- Other companies just allow Apple do it (as they know, they see what can Apple do and do it the rest. They enter the market, that Apple was not able to win)

- Companies allow apple release their best products and analyse why people don't love fruct features and they give it to those who disappointed with Apple devices.

And many other variats are possible.

But the do! They compete with each other! As they have one marketplace

We never know what they do behind the curtain!!! we just try to be logic and use analytics
[Android General] aexol:
I know we all hate on apple, mostly for them being a **** company, but seriously, their stuff is ****.

Okay, it's snappy, and okay, it's nice looking.

But I had to work on a mac for a while, and I can say that without a doubt my PC (that was half that price) is vastly superior. Everything on mac works awful, including their retard son, Safari. Same goes for ipads, iphones, ipods. I just can't understand why someone would overpay for something that is worse.

As for why I had to work on a mac computer - they don't allow ios developers to make apps on anything else. **** company.
[Android General] innosia:
apple wins the battle apparently because they are the first to enter the market. Usually the first person enter a certain field wins.

However after a long period of time, many competitors come out with their so called immitation devices, however if apple does not innovate more thing in a field thats others never enter, they will eventually lose to those immitators. Because those immitators shaped by the market.
[Android General] DD-Ripper:
That guy probably is an iOS fanboy. Apple never imitates..????? LMAO.

It copied the drag down notification bar from Android...and many more..! :eek:

Android devices makes a better option because their price is little less than iPhones, iPads etc and performance is far more higher and we can customise the interface, install custom roms etc...!

Most People (not everyone) buy apple devices so that they can show off to others that they can afford such devices.

[Android General] prboy1969:
Just another Crapple Fanboy voicing out loud for the world to hear how ill informed he is. If Crapple spent as much time " innovating " as they do suing other companies, they might produce half way decent affordable products.
