[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadman3000:
I don't know what is going on but all of a sudden my browser is sucking all the CPU and knackering the battery from a fresh startup. I tried removing the battery and SD card and rebooted without the SD card and it still does it. I use a CPU monitor to see what is munching on the CPU and it's that. I tried clearing its cache etc and force stopped it and the CPU usage dropped to normal. If I open the browser manually it does not suck the CPU. But as soon as I reboot the handset it sucks on it again.

Any ideas? I can switch to using Dolphin for browsing if I can disable the default browser from starting that is. How do I do that? Also any ideas on why it's doing this?

I am using rooted ICS but this is the first time I have had this issue after updating a bunch of apps last night.

EDIT: Fixed! It was a rogue app that hijacked my browser with an Airpush addon. Grr!

Apps it was probably from were Human Anatomy and/or Rainbow Cloud Attack.

I see this Airpush is the new Android malware.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadman3000:
Oh well. It came back so it's not the push addons. Something else is going on. I ended up disabling the default browser and using Dolphin instead.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpith.fbi:
yup..default browser is buggy...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pveyes:
does xperia s browser make any difference? I can't get it working
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtacy!:
Dolphin Browser HD is probably the best full browser out there. The default browser just doesn't hold candle against it.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okries:
uninstall your deafault browser with titanium backup, and try another browser.

recomended : Dolphin HD and Opera

[Galaxy S III Accessories] robbiekhan:
This official Samsung car mount works on multiple phones, not just the S3 unlike the S2 car mount I had which only worked on the S2 and only when not using a case which was a double whammy of a negative for that mount.

Have Samsung learnt the error of their ways and improved this new mount? Let's find out...

This kit comes in 3 parts, the S2 mount comes in 2:

The ball joint clips into this socket while the screw tightens the fit:

Unfortunately Samsung didn't leave room for arm adjustment so the number of ways to point the mount is very limited again, just like the S2 mount, you need to have it quite high up on the windscreen to get decent movement of the head:

Ultimately it still suffers one of the main flaws I found on the S2 dock, lack of adjustment and being aimed at windscreen mounting only as opposed to dashboard discs (see pic below). It's less advanced than the S2 mount because it doesn't have a socket the phone sits into to activate car mode, but if it did it wouldn't work on other phones whereas this one will work on almost any phone that's of compatible width as both side arms retract in and out.

So it's just a car mount that's tough and sturdy in motion, it doesn't vibrate and the suction is very strong but for what it costs I'd much rather recommend the Nokia CR-115 with a bit of DIY to the stock arm padding (remove them and replace with thinner pads) to work on phones as wide as an S3 because you get better movement and a slimmer profile for easier storage. It also costs less than £10 depending on where you shop. I also think it's by far the nicest looking mounts out there and because it's a genuine brand made one, it's good quality too.

Nokia CR-115:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] robbiekhan:
Update:

The modding has started early :p I was looking at the ball joint and then at the ball joint on the Exomount car holder and realised they looked the same size....

So yeah, now I have a car mount that is sturdy and of excellent build and sticks to almost anything :p

WiFi tether free from the play store. Power off phone, take out battery for three seconds, put back in power up do this each tethering session. Make sure routing fix is checked, disable wake lock, use channel 11, check set up wext ad hoc, device profile generic ICS, DNS 8.8.8.8. ,Lan 192.168.20 24, transit power disabled. SSID Android tether. Then you should be good to go. If you get a error message, power off , remove battery, wait 3 seconds, put battery back power on you should be good to go! I've found this app working perfectly in 3 out of four different Roms I've tried. Hope this helps and happy tethering!

For those trying to tether earlier Android versions, Gingerbread etc, I found the standard wifi-tether app wouldn't work.

It works perfectly and no need to reset or battery pull either.

Hey there, I've been using my Galaxy S2 for several months and never got to buying a memory card for it.

What you guys think is the best of the best?

How much GB?

Which manufacturer?

Model No?

What to look for when purchasing one on ebay?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] republicano:
just got a adata 32gb class 10, had a sandisk 32gb class 4 but its worth having a class 10 in it.

the R&W speeds when transfering data to pc is alot better and when taking pictures.

read 19.6mbs / write 13.2mbs with sdtools,had the same brand sd card before and was happy about the performance.

always use H2testw v1.4 just to be sure,it was the cheapest brand for its class locally.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] andymihail:
32 Gb Microsdhc Class 10

I have a Kingmax microSDHC 32GB Class10 and I am very satisfied.

I tested it with SD Tools and got 9.1 MB/s writing speed, but in practice, it can go over 10 sometimes, but also can go lower to 3 MB/s and such.

I recommend this card, as is not very expensive either.

It's Big difference. 4MB/s vs 10MB/s write speed is big diff.

Hello guys,

I'm enjoying my SGS3, noticed today that the audio is very noticeably more open and dynamic than SGS2... very obvious. GREAT!

The auto brightness is too dark, ok for when the wife is sleeping and I want to geek out a bit, but for most use, it is dim.

Is anyone else experiencing that, I wonder if anyone cooking ROMs will be able to up the auto brightness setting, it should be possible, right?

Cheers, Mark.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c5satellite2:
Funny, on HTC it is always too bright! Maybe we can meet halfway! Just remember that brighter screen equals less battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidpixar:
Yup I feel the same way. Have auto brightness turned off because of it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredphoesh:
thanks guys, yeah, if I was a bit younger a slightly dim display would be ok...

lets hope some clever chef cooks up a fix for that.

Try to use applications that allow you to adjust the comfort brightness for different conditions. First you teach the application and then it set the brightness automatically. I use lux brightness. You can try to find an alternative.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo450:
Auto brightness on my Evo (stock ROM) was always way too bright in a dim room. I haven't seen the GS3 yet but I'm guessing that there is no slider adjustment when auto brightness is enabled? This is one thing that works really well on my iPod touch. With auto brightness enabled you can still adjust the overall level.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c5satellite2:
Crapple probably patented adjustable auto brightness! LOL;)
[General Questions and Answers] roscoejackson:
Having a couple small issues with my HTC One X (att).

WiFi is a little buggy, so I figured I'd call ATT and have them send me.a.refurb for a warranty swap out.

Here's the problem: I dropped my.phone with no case on it, and there is a small, but deep ding on the top.corner.of.the phone. Nowhere near the screen. The damage is purely cosmetic. The rest of the phone is undamaged.

Will they void my warranty for physical damage from this?
[General Questions and Answers] c5satellite2:
Shouldn't be an issue, can you post a pic? HTC knows about the WiFi and has owned up to it, so I think they are trying to make people happy with the issue.
[General Questions and Answers] roscoejackson:
It's a somewhat deep surface gouge on the top left corner. Now that I have a case on, you can't even see it. It's maybe a quarter of the size of the front camera. It's probably pretty obvious that happened from a drop.
[General Questions and Answers] c5satellite2:
I think you will be fine if it is just cosmetic. Only one way to find out.
[General Questions and Answers] nighthawkmckenzie:
As long as the physical damage didn't create the hardware problem (or can be reasonably argued it did) you should be OK. I dropped an Acer Liquid once, and the small scratch didn't seem like much, but the impact blew the Wifi and Bluetooth radio.

Just Be polite. Warranty coverage is like insurance. Give them reason to refute your case... They will.

I'd be happy to tell you about how I bricked mine while trying to install a ROM...

I was able to root and install CWM... but after running through ROM install it won't power on.

Ugh this sucks.

Looks like I'm going to have to go the Sprint store and try and get a replacement... at least it doesn't power on at all. Hopefully they won't be able to tell I hacked it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Jimieo:
Yeah that does suck.. Hard lesson learned though. Only try ROMs for the Sprint version of your device.

I hope you get that cleared up!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] alexanderd:
Thanks

Have you guys ever gone to the Sprint store to get a bricked phone repaired?

I'm hoping they just swap it with another phone and won't be able to tell I hacked it.

It doesn't power on at all. No boot loader, no download mode, no recovery mode... nothing.

You think they'll have a way to detect that I messed with it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] teh roxxorz:
If you can't turn it on, they shouldn't be able to.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] alexanderd:
Awesome. I'm hoping it goes well.

and lesson is learned. I'll wait a while before trying any ROMs again.

I went from the Nexus S 4G and loading roms on that beast was so easy I thought it was going to be easy on this phone too.

Anyways... lesson learned.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Skunk Ape1:
Yeah. I heard about that. You should only flash roms made for your phone.

Getting it replacd shouldn't be an issue. The issue is, you may have to wait for them to get them in though.

Just Flash It !!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] alexanderd:
New phone on the way!

I was able to get a replacement sent from Sprint. Had to go to a corporate store and have a tech look at it first though. All they were able to do though was a battery test and then they gave up.

So new phone should be in by the end of the week.

Lesson learned... I will wait for a supported ROM.
