I have found that if you have dropbox installed and logged on, you can't upload to Picasa from the gallery. Try using Picasa Tool, works good enough for me. Or just log out of dropbox...
[HTC One S] Skyman1:
I will try it... THX...

maybe is dropbox.

PICASA TOOL work GOOD!!!!

but... the picasa tool licence it's very expensive! 3,99 euro!

and it's very strange because ALSO with the PICASA TOOL you can share the photo FORM THE GALLERY directly to the PICASA WEB ALBUM.... You have to OPEN picasa tool and upload it!

It's not so much different but I hate it!

Is it necessary to charge my brand new galaxy s3 before I even use it? I've heard two different stories. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
No.

People who say this don't take into consideration that the battery has been charged and tested in the factory, so what makes THEIR first charge special?

It is a li-ion battery. It does not need to be conditioned.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tsukurimashou:
I personally used it directly without charging then at 5% I charged it. I have no problem and I get a really good battery life, better than most I have seen in battery thread.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberpunkDad:
Hello All - was wondering if one of the tasker ninjas out there might give me a bit 'O assistance.

One of the things I find really annoying when using a clock widget is having the status bar time displayed. So invariably turn it off.

Well wodnt you know it, I then constantly find myself wanting to know the time when in an app.

So the question:

How do I setup tasker to turn off the status bar time when it senses I am at the launcher screen and not in an app and turn it back on when I go into an app?

For reference : i777 + CM9 + Apex Pro

Thanks much! Your help is appreciated. My tasker kung-fu is weak.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neon Mirage:

I would think you could accomplish this goal by using a combination of tasker and autoinput, if you still want to know more let me know

[Galaxy S III General] b_bhavu:
I am using I9300T varient (Telstra) with a build version DUALE6. I am surprised that this problem has got very little mention in all reviews. While using photo gallery, the photos will not auto rotate even though you have auto rotation mode on. We have to manually tap the rotation button to rotate photo. and then if the next photo is of different orientation, you again have to tap that button. Is this normal? Is it with all builds or just the telstra? can some one please confirm?

I find this is way to unnatural. I mean having auto rotation on, why you need another rotation button. It is samartphone user tendancy to rotate device to bring photo in its original orientation. This is against the Nature UX and made for human claim?

Is there any work around for this? Does the custom roms have same issue?

I know it can be taken care by using alternate app like quickpic, but I think this should not be taken for granted for the stock application. It is all about user experience.
[Galaxy S III General] cheetah2k:
We're all the same mate. I actually like this in a way, because some pics taken by say a DSLR that you put on the phone, sometimes rotate the wrong way.

IMO, at the very least you should be able to have the ability to have auto picture rotation, and have the option to press the manual rotate button. I think that would be a good middle ground in this instance.

On the other hand, maybe Samsung may have ommitted auto rotation to minimise Patent issues with Apple and their picture viewer patent, which was responsible for the delayed release of the SGSII and Galaxy Tabs in countries like USA.... Samsung did say the the SGSIII would be built clear of any of Apple's licenced patents to avoid any further disputes. :good:
[Galaxy S III General] b_bhavu:
Well, I didn't know that it is the case with only Australian devices. I asked samsung and they replied me in one liner... " This is how the device should work by default.".. Thanks sammy.

Last night, I flashed LF6 to overcome redraw lags and I realised that it is lot faster than our carrier branded rom and surprisignly unlike our ROM, photo gallery in LF6 works fine. No additional rotation button. It rotates normally and that is how it should work.

I don't know if that is a patent issue. If that is the case than why only on Aussie ROMs. I feel sorry for my mates who are far away from xda and rooting thing and they will have to bare this annoying thing until they got an update.

PS - this bug is so obvious that it has been noticed by 2 and half year old daughter who has been very comfortable with my old iphone, htc desire hd and galaxy s II. She told me that something is wrong with your phone. Now that explains that it is against nature UX.
[Galaxy S III General] cyrax83:
I have this same issue with Optus Australia. Why do I have to click the rotation button? This is so dumb.
[Galaxy S III General] darwin123:
I have the same issue with an Optus branded phone as well

Rather than going through the trouble of installing a new rom. Just install quick pix. It does auto rotate the images
[Galaxy S III General] daisun:
This is on all Australian S3's. My unbranded stock S3 has the same 'feature'. It is definitely to do with patent issues. It's the same thing on the ICS update for the S2.
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
I flashed Wanam then Checkrom. On both the auto rotate works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ygaeia:
I've been using the CM9 6/18 nightly, and it was working perfectly, no problems or glitches, until this afternoon when I left the phone on my desk for an hour, not connected to any computer or charger.

The screen wouldn't turn on, even after repeated tries and long waits, so I held the power button until it restarted. When it did, it booted to a screen that said that the encryption of the phone's storage had been interrupted, plus an option to do a factory reset. I couldn't get to the launcher or any other part of the phone. I'm baffled by this, because I don't remember ever touching any setting having to do with encryption! I honestly don't know why it would be encrypting anything.

Knowing that doing a factory reset on one of the leaked ICS kernels could cause a brick, I just restarted the phone again to see what would happen. This time, the phone froze part way through the CM9 boot animation, so I said "screw it, I'll just Odin EL29 recovery," which worked. I then flashed the CM9 Alpha 5 build on top. I did not wipe because I was hoping I could just flash over like I'd been doing with all the other CM9 Alpha 5/Nightly builds to hopefully retain my data. In retrospect, this was probably really stupid. The rom seemed to flash successfully, but when I restarted the phone, it never got past the Samsung logo.

Then I remembered the Alpha 5 had no built-in recovery, so... I decided to Odin EL29 again. This time, however, Odin never got past:

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> StockCWM-EL29.tar.md5 is valid.

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/004> zImage

<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!

I tried EL29 OneClick, but that also never gets past flashing the first thing, recovery.bin. When I try to boot the phone normally now, it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."

So, any suggestions? Am I totally out of luck?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ygaeia:
Any help or opinions

I hate to do this, but this post has been up a while and I'm getting desperate, I know I've done everything I can think of but the fact remains that everything I Odin stalls as soon it actually tries to write to the memory of the phone. ADB does not connect. My fear is that the phone's storage was in fact partially or wholly encrypted, and therefore inaccessible.

However, I know there are many people here who are much more knowledgeable than I am, all I would love is an educated opinion or suggestion about whether there is anything that I could possibly try. Otherwise I guess I'm going to have to order a USB jig and reset the counter, then try to get Credo Mobile to replace my phone under the limited warranty...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Search for the Odin el26 one click for recovery. It will get you back to complete stock. The file is like 300mb or something. It "should" fix your issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ygaeia:
I appreciate your help; unfortunately, I've tried the el26 one click, as well as a few other GB one clicks. It's always the same thing: Odin hangs at flashing recovery.bin.

On another note: out of my vast, desperate stupidity, I tried to flash a .pit file through Odin. It hung, just like everything else. I let it sit for 30 mins, but nothing happened, so, despite the warning NOT TO TURN OFF the phone, I pulled the battery and disconnected. Now, all I get is a constant blue light.

I guess my only hope is that the USB jig I just ordered will let me get back into download mode.

4ext is my favourite however having a gs2 I cannot have it :/ so second best for me is cwm!!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
+1 for 4EXT as well. Not only is the touch interface real easy to navigate but it even has extra options like converting your partitions to the 4ext filesytem from 3ext (stock filesystem)

***Note: as far as I know, you can only convert to 4ext filesystem if the ROM you are running can support it or you will have problems.

I prefer TWRP over CWM (in recovery mode) . However, I like the ROM Manager app for CWM and am tempted to replace TWRP with CWM so I can use all the features of this app.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] imnothimm:
You have one too?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] theraffman:
Just talked with my buddy (nakedninja) who explained what this is, apparently each individual phone ships with a specific device id, whenever modified software, ROM, kernel etc... is flashed it re issues an id. As long as its different from the original, Samsung and ATT will know that the phone had been modified. The question is, can that id be reverted or saved in some way, to Bead restored in case the phone needs to be exchanged.

Thanks nakedninja for the info, let's hope something its figured out, flash counters can be reset easy enough... But modifying, inserting editing the device id may be trickier... But with our bad ass Dev team I'm sure it will be of no concern
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dLo GSR:
that's not necessarily true.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1723980
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] theraffman:
I believe that all the other flash counter protocols have been defeated, given enough time for the devs to work on it, I may be wrong though, but it seems they have figured this out and that's why they worked in this secondary script to reveal modified devices... This is my speculation and based on what I have gather here on XDA. Though I can must definitely be wrong, won't be the first time and won't be the last.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] stan.s:
I hope so Though I'm thinking that a stock Samsung (rather than a stock Samsung ATT) would be nice with the motion stuff, which I like and the drivers for all the devices would be there.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] pinoymutt:
I think you're right in that it's a matter of "when" vs "if" the counter can be reset. It really just depends on the priority of some of the talented devs with the knowhow that will determine the speed in which it's found.

I know from some of the other devices I've been following, it took a handful of folks that either wanted the challenge or the counter meant something to them (presumably for warranty purposes) to really get going.

Most likely the method will probably be the same (or very close) for all the North American variants - so with the amount of American and Canadian devs, hopefully at least one is up to the task! I'm personally really interested in the solution myself before rooting because I've had several warranty exchanges in the past on some of my phones, and I'd like to err on the side of caution.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] stan.s:
I am coming from Sony phones my last 3 I flashed standard Sony firmware for North America, rather than the att branded ones. Two were not android. To me this is an annoying complication, since Sony would update standard firmware and there were tons of sites that had flash services and firmware.

I expect that there will be fixes released in the next two months, I don't want to be shut out just because I don't like the att software.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
Exactly as I expected. Where did you get it from? I used it too. My HDD was formatted. Its fake I think. You used it successfully before?

To test that it is fake, do this.

Create a folder called ABC at C:/. And put some files in the folder. Anyfile. Say a blank text file.

Open cmd at the folder where the aiUP.exe is placed.

And make it look like this...

"[location]/aiUP.exe system.sin 2048 C:/ABC" without quotes and hit enter.

It will give error, but ignore it.

Supposedly, the system.sin should get extracted to C:/ABC. But you open up C:/ABC and see what you find.

And report back.
