[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iormangund:
Might sound like a silly thing, but just check your power saving isn't enabled, found that while it is enabled stuff like 1080 vids played really badly. That and what type of hdmi cable you are using could be factors.

I went on hols for two weeks and just took my S3 and a portable hard drive with hdmi and usb adapters and cables and used the hotels 1080p tvs as a full desktop, ubuntu and all :)

I am pretty positive that everytime I have used the hdmi it has been at 1080p. My guess is maybe a tv error unless it has run 1080p before?

EDIT: Oooh, just had another thought, what exact hdmi adapter did you use? Link included if that's not against forum rules? Know when I got mine I had to wade thru a lot of close immitations that don't display properly as they are cheap fakes sold as the real thing, one would only display 720p :o
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haffid:
can you tellme the model of bluetooth keyboard and mouse? i wanna do the same
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iormangund:
I bought a generic mini bluetooth keyboard from amazon marketplace, it's not the bees knees but its about the size of the phone, bluetooth, rechargeable and only £10.

Works great for using the terminal or typing complex passwords etc when traveling or using as a desktop.

Also used the microsoft notebook bluetooth mouse 5000, got that cheap through amazon marketplace too.

Neither come with bluetooth adapters though so would need to by one seperately if ever using with a pc that doesn't have built in bluetooth.

1080i

Hi

I recently purchased MHL adapter from this website

http://www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s3-mhlhdmi-adaptor

And I have same problem as you. My TV only gets 1080i not 1080p.

However I don't get flickering, I just see that there is not enough vertical pixels (visible difference)

Tried bunch of different hdmi cables (cables that work with various 1080p devices with no issues whatsoever) and I always get 1080i.

Even when I try to playback video which is 1080p.

I'll try later if there is any difference if I plug it in through AMP (onkyo) and not the tv and let you know if there is any difference.

Cheers

I usually check the market when I wake up to see if there is a new app. Sure enough, the My Story app had an official update. The version I was running before was the one that froze if you tried to get the update from within the app. I haven't played with the update yet, so I don't know the specifics. Enjoy.

Recently I rooted my phone and want to get rid of some system apps. So I deleted some apk-s from \system\app

Unfortunately I have deleted some contacts related apk-s (may be)!

Now when I open the dialer and open the thumbnail of the contact to ‘View Contact’, ‘Send SMS’, etc., I’m getting the following error message.

The application Contacts Storage (process com.motorola.contacts) has stopped unexpectedly Please try again.

Now, literally I’m not able to view any contact only. The only thing I’m able to do is to make a call to direct dial number.

Note: I haven’t taken any backup before deleting these apks.

I’ll be great if some of you guys using Atrix 2 (rooted) publish the contact related apk files in \system\app

Thank you!

Without knowing EXACTLY which apps you removed, this will be a futile task, because we could give you a ton of apps and none of them fix your issue...

Your best bet is to return to stock using the FXZ.

Look here, and look for how to flash the fxz, about half way down the first post, and make sure you patch the update with the zip file:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk_ln:
Hi,

I've noticed that there seem to be 4 different versions of the SGS3: i9300, i747, i535, and T999. I assume that since they have different hardware, they would require different firmware, and thus, different ROMS. Would I be correct in that assumption? If so, where would be the best source of i747 custom ROMs and Kernels? I am only able to find customizations to the international version.

Please let me know if I have missed something.

Thanks in advance :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tgdontap:
Hey all. Been trying to flash the Infamous ROM the last couple days and can't get past a boot loop every time. I'm coming from gb 2.3.6.

I followed the steps in Jamison's dev thread and tried to flash v2.5 last night. Got the boot loop so went back into recovery and tried to flash it again as I've read flashing multiple times will do the trick. No go so I restored and tried the whole process again with the same result.

Saw that v2.6 is up today so I tried again with it and still seeing the boot loop. Gives me the Samsung logo, the Infamous loading image, then the blue android animation starts to move and then freezes.

Read the whole Infamous thread and didn't see any boot loop issues. Is it a problem that I'm trying to flash an ICS ROM from gingerbread?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Spitfire:
If you are on GB you probably have to flash an ICS radio first, that might be the problem. The Darkside Evolution thread has steps that include a radio flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tgdontap:
thanks for the info. before i read your reply i found generic instructions on flashing ICS ROMs that said to use the darkside superwipe script prior to flashing a rom. i tried that and it looped once during reboot then went all the way.

got a working rom now but i need to flash a new radio anyway because wifi isn't working. thanks again for the help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tgdontap:
one more question. when i set up my wifi connection i don't see an option to connect to networks even if they're not broadcasting. i imagine support for hidden SSIDs is in here somewhere but i can't figure it out.
[Galaxy S III General] jothi2lingam:
The Samsung Galaxy S3 will receive the Android 4.1, JellyBean update in the fourth quarter of 2012.

The software was unveiled by Google during the company's Google I/O keynote earlier this week, according to YouMobile.org.

The first devices to receive the software will be the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and the Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi tablet with an OTA update coming in the middle of July.

JellyBean brings a number of enhancements to the already impressive Android 4.0 that improve touch responsiveness and the overall smoothness of animations and the UI. The frame rate has also been accelerated to 60 frames per second.

Google displayed demos of the redesigned widgets in the software that scale intelligently around other UI elements along with a new Predictive Keyboard that takes voice commands.

Android 4.1, also features redesigned notifications that Google has now made fully customizable, expandable, and collapsible.

Follow us

Google execs also presented a demo during the event that displayed the new notifications expanding to provide more information as they reached the top of the list and how they also can be expanded and collapsed at any time with gestures.

Jelly Bean will also have an improved voice search that is very similar to Apple's Siri voice navigation system featured on the iPhone 4S.

A new feature called "Google Now" also debuted at the event.

"Google Now" functions as a search product that utilizes customizable cards such as "Sports" or "Flights" that will keep users up to date on data that is important to them. It also provides users with personal assistant-like features.

For example, the cards feature gives up to date information based on a user's personal preference and location. It also updates travel information for people running late and give sports scores for teams that the user likes.

Q4? I thought the sources were due in July. Expect 2-3 weeks before the first real AOSP-roms pop up, so in August everyone who cares will be running 4.1

Who cares about Samsung-official stuff anymore?
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Where's Q4 coming from?

I know they're in with god and all, but somehow I don't think "The Christian Post" knows better than Samsung's own Twitter.
[Galaxy S III General] joshnichols189:
Sammobile is not Samsung's twitter.
[Galaxy S III General] dasistsparta:
If they say Q4 then expect it by may 2013
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Hadn't noticed that. Well in that case, it remains to be seen as far as I'm concerned.

Only something coming directly from a Samsung source is reliable. Samsung don't announce these things privately in press conferences, they just tweet it.

Have they confirmed a timeframe themselves? (In China + On Twitter = I can't check easily)
[Galaxy S III General] leftheodo:
I thought that the PDK support that comes with JB would make it easier for the OEM's to release faster updates. Q4 is too late
[Galaxy S III General] joshnichols189:
No it isn't.
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
Lol!

For Samsung, Q4 is super fast!!!

Let's just wait and see and keep the speculation to a minimum for now because it only leads to "wtf, I don't has jellybeenz yet, why iz Samsung mean to me!!!11" Threads.

It'll come when it comes.
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Why does everyone say this? I don't get it. I don't see any manufacturer that get updates out faster.

Samsung should be faster. They all should. But everyone always seems to say that Samsung are very bad for getting updates out fast. Relatively speaking, they seem quite fast.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
That's everyone's response due to what happen to the sgs1,which still got gingerbread at a reasonable time just not the us carrier versions.

SGS2 was faster, but still the us SGS2 suffered due to carrier request and delays.

Really it's the US carriers fault. US won't see jelly bean for 6 to 9 months.
[Galaxy S III General] joshnichols189:
Ironically the US Galaxy Nexus gets jellybean first.
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
My sentiments exactly. I remember waiting for Gingerbread on my S1. But I don't remember envying every other manufacturers update speed. I (possibly) remember HTC shipping one slightly faster but nothing long enough to warrant the "Samsung updates are **** slow" mentality that everyone seems to have.

The post I quoted was from someone in Ireland though. You can't blame the US networks for that.
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
Well seeing that Ireland is GSM we get our updates first along with all GSM ppls.

I'm just used to nexuses for updates and in comparison Samsung are slower. (obviously, nexuses are the reference device)

[Galaxy S III General] norpan111:
Yup not talking to you right now either.. Very upset
[Galaxy S III General] rlorange:
Coming from an Eclair 2.1 galaxy s1 and running all the way to 4.04 ICS cm9 with Sammy roms sprinkled in along the way I have seen a slow but steady improvement in coding from their end. Stock samny ICS on my new SGS3 Is light years away from their shocking file system lag and botched updates.

Samsung have adapted best overall IMO to the new "paradigm" created by Android. To this day they are the only phone maker to keep their flagship devices virtually unbrickable and Dev friendly while being novice user friendly for the masses.

The final surrender to the new paradigm is not far off. When Samsung releases driver source code for hardware they make and own rights too.

So Q4 jelly bean update? Yeah sounds reasonable to me.

And don't forget the crucial issue at hand: Without official Samsung kernel source code any AOSP port will be missing features... Or is jelly bean similar enough to ICS that this won't be the case?
[Galaxy S III General] Interstar:
I think we should bear in mind that this still is a minor update, google now is esentialy and app and the new functonalities aren´t that major .

therefore i belive the update might actualy roll out around september alongside with the note 2 which i think is safe to assume will have 4.1 , the interessting question ist will they keep S voice or kill it , i am pretty sure they will kill it due to the obvious superiority of google now !
[Galaxy S III General] matttye:

Umm. Got this phone today after much agonizing as I'd heard some bag things about TouchWiz. I'm pleasantly surprised. It's quite decent really, all things considered, and I'm quite happy to use it over CM9 which is one of the reasons I decided to bite the bullet in the end ... at least if TouchWiz was crap I could have run aosp on this beastly phone.

So yeah I'm finding it hard to believe but I actually think I care about Samsung official stuff.

[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
I would love to see the official update soon, but one damn thing about samsung is we never know what is implemented and what is not from jb. Ics brought as gpu accelerated rendering for smoothness but till now we didn't had an official word about it from samsung on how well it is adapted to samsung devices (at least for their flagship) and how good those changes are. I fear the same for project butter, its going to be there but can they document the improvement? I don't think they will, not only samsung but none of the oem are doing it. Let's hope samsung make an initiative first, as their customers we have the right to know about the improvements in depth not just the update.

[Galaxy S III General] droidx1978z4:
I agree with dr.m0x that project butter is over hyped. Yes it is faster and smoother, but I would call it a marginal improvement, and not a night and day difference. I can't compare it to the s3 since I'm still waiting for verizon to start shipping pre orders though.
[Galaxy S III General] norpan111:
Why do think that? You got just little performance improvements? It's really odd because every review I've seen has been like "omagod revolutionary shiatz!" and it looks like a real difference.. Didn't tried it myself so I'm just curious
[Galaxy S III General] IFireflyl:
Project Butter provides improved performance for multi-core processors. The S3 (International) has a quad-core processor. I'm assuming that it's going to be pretty facking sweet. ;)

Also, I know everyone's going on about Q4, but every S3 owner wants Jelly Bean. There's no reason not to want it. With that being said we're probably going to have it before Q4 with the developers we've got on XDA. Just my opinion. Maybe wishful thinking. ;)
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
Yes this is why jb is so important because it is optimized for quad core
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
where did they mentioned its optimized for multi cores?

Worried

The only thing im worried is if the SIII international version gonna have the JB because the "ram" because you imagine that you buy a new new phone and then they tell you that is not compatible to upgrade.:crying:
[Galaxy S III General] NaimC:
When people claim Jelly Bean makes GNex faster than the S3 I have to sort of raise an eye brow. Using my GS3 at 0.5x animation and window settings and honestly, how are you supposed to actually get smoother?

Do you mean less hitches and pauses overall? Because imo getting smoother would be pretty impossible since its as smooth and quick as it pretty much can be. Both the S3 and the iPhone 4S are tbh.
[Galaxy S III General] jaaystott:
I think the point is, in the time it takes Samsung to get these new updates out not enough changes. It doesn't really matter with Jelly Bean, but in respect to the ICS update that the SGS2 reviewed, nothing barely changed.

I appreciate that I operating system was drastically sped up and some essential changes were made, however from October 2011 to March/April 2012 unbranded users received no updates despite there being battery drain issues and that dreadful keyboard that caused the Messaging app to bounce. To put it into perspective, Orange had their SGS2 branded models running Android 2.3.7; Samsung had theirs running 2.3.4, sorry but that's appalling.

When the ICS update finally came to the UK (where the carriers for it first) there were no UI changes in regards to TouchWiz. If you stood a GB SGS2 next to an ICA SGS2 you couldn't tel them apart.

[Galaxy S III General] rlorange:
Fingers crossed JB will be similar enough kernel-wise for cm9 to make an early build. If this proves wishfull thinking we may have to wait for a working beta kernel to be leaked by Samsung then longer for source code
