[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brad387:
I updated to ICS around 3 weeks ago. So far, it's been very troublesome with deep sleep issues and just yesterday I also found out my kernel is likely infected with the infamous brick bug. Whilst I could downgrade to GB, I don't view this as an option as I always think it a good idea to have the latest version of Android available for my device due to support reasons.

So, what are some possible solutions to the brick bug? I understand this will likely require flashing, rooting or something along those lines, but what is the safest and most simple method for solving this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
The simplest way is to flash a SAFE kernel either in CWM or via ODIN

Check the dev section for kernels and see in the OP whether it is safe or not, For me, Abyss and Speedmod are safe. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
There is no fix for the brick bug except getting your emmc chip replaced and as its embedded in the mobo they usually replace the whole mobo.

There is a work around to repartition effectively bypassing the damaged portion, but you will obviously lose a portion of storage, usually between 3 to 4gb.

Samsung are working on a kernel that will likely bypass the bug by not issuing the unsupported erase command but could be a while.

As azzledazzle says, of you're rooted and have cwm installed you can flash a safe kernel (listed in the sticky), but if you're gonna go that far its well worth checking out safe custom true ics roms such as paranoid android/cm9 and various others. The note works wonders in tablet mode which Samsung have kindly not enabled on their touchwizz ruined and buggy roms. You get a lot more bang foe your buck with true ics and tablet mode.

Read the sticky on the issue, its all explained there.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brad387:
Thanks, but I think I'll stick to the stock ROM and kernel as if it brick bugs it should logically be covered under warranty. Plus, I don't plan on hard resetting or flashing my phone, so logically not enough data should ever be deleted for this bug to cause me an issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
So long as you don't hard reset you'll be fine. For future info, don't flash another ics rom from ics kernel, downgrade to a safe gb kernel before upgrading.

All the best.

[Galaxy S III General] aami.aami:
HI. I was cleaning my drawer today and was trying to clean up the mess in my drawer and found one of my old cameras, Canon Power Shot A560! :)

it is a mid budget and mid range camera and i got that about 2 years ago :)

well it is still working! btw its made in Malaysia, thanks to canon for that! :)

lets come to the point.

A560 has a 7.1 MP sensor, resolution of 3072 × 2304 and the size of the sensor is 1/2.5" CCD.

While the Galaxy S III has an 8 MP sensor, resolution of 3264x2448 and its sensor has aperture of F/2.6.

I have also added my all time love, my Samsung Wave to the test.

Wave has a two year old 5 MP camera with 30 fps HD video recording capability and still resolution of 2560x1920 and its also equipped with decent flash.

i was just considering a head to head challenge between A560 and Galaxy S III and also my Wave. i got some of the photos and found the following results.

u can clearly see that the images produced by A560 seem to be more Noise Free and more soothing than those of S3. S3 produces more sharper and more accurate color images. Wave on the other hand, proves to be the most successful out of all three considering its low Megapixel count and its quite old camera sensor. its images have the most real white balance and the colors are more natural and real to life. but the detail it captures is where it stands last.

U can also notice that the flash power of Canon A560 is somewhat more than that of S3's flash.

but in Macro mode, S 3 is the king!

I just got very few images and its night time so all of the images have been I taken in artificial lightening which is the most hard time for any camera to show its true power!

P.S: image order is that the first image is of S3, then A560 and then Wave. three sets each

pls comment with sincerity and dont troll cause that would not help no one! :)

PEACE
[Galaxy S III General] TotallydubbedHD:
Nice comparison :)
[Galaxy S III General] paintball23456:
to me the s3 looks more icandy i would say that it can EASILY out gun a compact camera like that :)

the flash on the s3 is LED on the compact camera im guessing a zenon?
[Galaxy S III General] aami.aami:
No the flash of the A560 is not xenon. its just ordinary flash. it is not even led flash. its a 4 year Canon PowerShot man! but i am really impressed with it now!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] moshe22:
Does any one if the US version of the Galaxy will support all this USB OTG features shown on video below.

The reason why I ask is because all this test were done with a Exynos processor but we will have a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor.

For those of you who don't know what USB OTG is, basically allows you to connect external hard drives, flash drives, controllers, etc.

Check the video below for more info:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] plaut:
I don't know about all of those features, but basic USB-OTG (mounting an external USB drive via dongle) works for the AT&T version (SGH-i747) and so almost certainly does for the T-Mobile version as well.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] TomONeill:
Hi guys,

I got my A700 today and after I totally used up the battery I plugged in the charger.

When turning the device on Android (and the LED) were both indicating that it's charging. I used it all the time and noticed the device isn't really charging. It's 1% to 5% and then 1% again. It's weird. I know I am using it, but is that costing so much power it's not charging at all?

I ajusted the brightness, but that doesn't really change. I have not been trying to turn it into standby modus and then charge it. But the main question is: Does anybody else experience this?

Edit:

Okay, so apparantly that is completely normal. I turned my tablet into stand by for a few minutes and it's now 11%.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skijackz:
I've had this happen to me three times now. I get a phone call and answer it. All I hear is a loud buzzing noise. I can't hear anything else and they can't hear me. They call back. Same loud buzz when I answer. Only when I reboot the phone does it fix the problem.

I'm on stock 1.85 so any ideas? I can't consistently reproduce it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Spankly:
That could be anything from hardware to software issues. Try and clean the cache or a factory reset. Otherwise if its still there then its hardware. My phone a couple days ago wiped the sd card and the next day did a factory reset on its own. Don't know how it happened or why. I've heard other stories about this phone having severe hardware issues.

Anyone has any idea on how to revert that?

I do believe the easiest way would just be add the information back in, most of the time once a setting like that is gone, it's gone for good.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shadowhumper:
but do you happen to know if there is some kind of list of "forgotten" ssids in the system where i could go there and delete the line?

because i dont want to have to change my router ssid just because of the nook (since everything else uses that wifi name)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
I don't know about a list of forgotten names, but I know there is a list of saved names, and it can be manually edited. I can't find the exact file name right now, but you might be able to dig around with your file explorer and find it (that's how I initially discovered it).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] titanshadow:
Can you be more specific about the problem you are trying to solve?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shadowhumper:
dschoss whence

Sure.

Under Settings -> Wireless one can see all the WiFi connections within range right? So by mistake I have clicked on my connection and selected "Forget" instead of "Connect".

I am trying to find a way that I can recover the forgotten WiFi SSID. Either using the UI or some text editor to do so.

I am using a rooted version of B&N 1.4.2 Android.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] spcagigas:
Have you tried turning WiFi off and then back on? Normal behavior for Android (and the Nook user manuals seems to confirm this) would be for your tablet to scan for nearby WiFi access points when you activate WiFi. If you aren't using a hidden SSID, you should be able to see your access point's SSID and start a connection to it.

Hey all,

New to the site and all.

Anyway i have a Samsung Galaxy S2X and ive been looking at my data usage and it says that a lot of data over a small period of time is being used for " Android OS services" though I'm not using my phone. If anyone has any suggestions let me know I wanna find out this problem so it stops eating up my data plan.

Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] GuestD0988:
Hi Welcome,

I am new to:D.. back to the problem.

Those OS services are pretty normal I think, because there are multiple system apps that frequently make contact with internet to refresh certain data.

If you don't like this, because of data limits from your provider. Go to your phone's settings --> wireless and networks --> mobile networks --> "use packet data" and "data roaming". Make sure both are not marked, if you don't like the OS to retrieve data in the background.

If these settings are unchecked you need to take in mind that there is no way to use the internet through 3G, HSDPA, etc. anymore and you can only access internet via WIFI for example.

I hope this fixes your problem:)
[General Questions and Answers] xHan1:
Thank you for the idea, but its more so finding what ones take up the largest amount of data. That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Ever since I got this phone I've had issues with the bluetooth headset. It's a Plantronics Voyager Pro and callers say I come through so loud that they have to hold the phone away from their ear. I had the same headset with my Bionic and it sounded great. Anyone else have issues? Could it be the ROM (Clean ROM Pro) or would this be an HTC/ Rezound issue?

Thanks for any insight

Also have problems on bluetooth

I have issues too, but not that issue. On stock GB and the second leaked ICS update I am told that my Jawbone Era makes me sound like I'm in a tunnel.

No issues with calls on any of the headsets. So weird.

I am simply interested in it due to the pier google android experience that I miss any feedback would be highly appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
the Nexus is still a great phone, and it will probably be getting Jellybean in 2 days. however it is not as good compared to the EVO 4G in terms of specs. its really upto you. try out the nexus and see what it is like for you and for the day to day activities you do with your phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jess813:
Just seems like the Nexus has more dev support too

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Oh... whoops, trade it for a Galaxy Nexus then!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jess813:
Lol people keep telling me not to due to specs but what's the huge difference?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
People can tell you all you want. But in the end it is ultimately your decision.

Conclude if you want it or not. No one is going to beg you to trade it or not to trade it.

Let's be honest.

You post this thread on Galaxy Nexus forums

- You get responses to trade it.. "get the galaxy nexus" (I myself included)

You post on this thread on EVO LTE forums.

- Tells you to keep it.... let me guess they told you not to... because of "specs"

Conclude for your own.... both phones are great.

Want the newest and latest in terms of software? Get the Galaxy Nexus. It'll always have the latest (unsure about its LTE variants because its controlled by carriers, but GSM version is free of that). Jelly Bean is around the corner, HTC will take awhile to update their phones.

Sure you can get custom ROMs but it's just not the same. Especially when it comes to open source drivers etc etc etc etc [read this on your own, not here to lecture about OTAs]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jess813:
so the LTE Nexus doesn't get the same updates as the GSM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
They do. They just have to be verified by the carrier. I'm not sure about Sprint but I know that the Verizon Nexus has to be approved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jess813:
I'm leaning more towards this beautiful device....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justen7723:
Agreed. Personally I don't like sense but yes the Evo has better specs. My last phone was the epic with touchwiz which was OK but after running cm9 on that I'm very happy coming to the gnex. Really what's more important to you. But if someone tried to trade me for the evo I would definitely say no.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 8thsiner:
I was looking around for a friend for a decent tablet as a gift, and was set on a samsung galaxy until she upped her budget to get one of these, but Not wiling to pay the £150 - £200 extra to buy from UK.

So I need somewhere in the US that ships to the UK.

Where are your favourite places?

And should I be set on the TF300 (+) models, or only the TF700?

Not sure asus fixed all the problems with the 300 and below models.

The limit is $467 dollars...maybe a touch more for shipping only...

Kinda urgent, needs to be shipped by tomorrow for arrival no later than next weekend.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] st33med:
Shipping international will probably jack up prices sky high and right now TF300 is what you probably could afford. I would wait for the Prime to drop in price soon to $399 for it's 16 GB tablet. The TF700 will be the same prices as the current pricing for the TF201, so it would exceed your limit.

As for places to order from, I wouldn't know. Amazon maybe a contender if they have someone shipping a tablet internationally.

The TF300 and TF700 has fixed the Wifi and GPS issues, though I wouldn't worry too much as most of the new TF201's have improved wifi over the course of it's life. TF700 has less battery life than both the TF300 and the TF201. TF300 lacks the Super IPS+ mode made for outdoors, making it 300 nits max compared to the 600 nits for the Prime's screen. TF700 has a Full HD screen and full clocked Tegra 3 to 1.6 Ghz (though ROMS can increase the other tablet speeds).

All in all, I'd wait for the TFP to drop in price.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 8thsiner:
