All forums will have some essence of stupidity and arrogance, that's why you have to ridicule them so they learn that their assumptions are not valid, otherwise they will never learn.

Now you're just speaking plain jibberish.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] mastarifla:
If that were the case then you would have used that word at the beginning, but no, you're trying to back pedal out of the mistake and you are fumbling even worse haha, your opinion has no legitimacy or basis besides for a crass downplaying of a group of people whom you have deemed fit.

So I'll do you a favor and end the discussion here before you trip over yourself harder, learn to use derogatory terms correctly if you are going to spout your hate/envy message.

I got pebble blue/grey....though it looks kinda purple in certain light. I like white too, but I think pocket lint will show up less on the darker color.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zaisaroni:
This isn't 7th grade.

To the topic: There are other white phones, but there aren't really a lot of blue phones, especially top tier hardware. My old 3GS was white so I was over it a little as well.

Blue shows fingerprints more, but white will show any amount of grime on it.

Neither really matches cases well except white cases on white, but only if a high gloss color match... I went with a light grey ROCK Quicksand case and its a nice contrast look. Hopefully the pebble blue Diztronic looks good. Kinda wish the Incipio Silicryllic or OB Commuter would come in a complimentary color soon.

This is certainly not true. Only now have you become a schnackerickell and really changed the whole direction of this thread. I've already updated urban dictionary and so far 125 likes and 3 dislikes. 3 dislikes is mildly ofdensive, but I guess at least you aren't the only schnackerickell out there.

Blue. It has many different shades, depending on the amount of light. Its a good different color, that stands out from the rest.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ChewieTobbacca:
Was unsure of blue at first... but now that I have it and have checked it out in a bunch of different lights, I really like it

When it's bright, it's got a bluish-purplish hue - in the dark, its a gunmetal grey to dark grey

Matches my car color actually haha (carbon black metallic)

I keep playing with both. I find myself playing with the white one more and i find myself hating the weird colors of the blue more and more but i cant comit to white,cause blue is my favorite color...maybe i shouldnt get the phone anymore.

Hello,

Today I've managed to compile CWM-based recovery for ICS kernel.

This recovery boots fine on my tpt ROW.

Use it at your own risk as I haven't tested it properly.

[Thinkpad Tablet General] jaba_cz:
Which way to flash?

dd to partition?

Nv flash?

You are one move ahead. Just today I've unpacked the dd-ed partition image :-)

[Thinkpad Tablet General] Driver'z:

[Thinkpad Tablet General] jaba_cz:
I've tried original dd (dupli disk) method. It did not work.

I will try to repack the recovery for 16Gb devices. For testing purposes only :-)

You can follow this guide

But remember, once you boot your system, your new recovery will be overwritten by stock. So there are two solutions:

1. patch your /system image to skip ovetwritting process during boot

2. boot your recovery straight after flashing it with nvflash and reflash it every time you need cwr
[Thinkpad Tablet General] jaba_cz:

i tried to fix the black crush/color issue on my S3 with Filter Your Screen

(13 Alpha; 255 Red; 225 Green; 255 Blue)

is this filter going to damage the amoled screen and how much it effects the battery?
[Galaxy S III General] Tinderbox (UK):
I did not realize the S3 had a problem with black crush, I though it was just us unlucky G-Note owners :(

We have just been using the free "Screen Adjuster" app , but it kills the battery and makes blacks gray.

[Galaxy S III General] NaimC:
I definitely have a black crush issue with mine. I've tested 4 and they all have it but one dev has already found a fix for it. Just be patient till its released. Shouldn't be long now.
[Galaxy S III General] deezid:
There's indeed a heavy black crush problem on this device (beside the yellow tint...). Hope some developer will fix this. Dark photos or videos don't show any details on this screen.... :(
[Galaxy S III General] CONTACTMC:
Supercurio by any chance? Good luck with that, after saying it was pretty much possible to fix the problem in the Galaxy Note after the ICS source was released, we did not hear much in the thread he started, then after a few idiots tried low tactics to get a responce from him, he got the hump and closed the thread.

This is such a stupid problem, and one that samsung customer services still refuse to acknowledge.

I was told to return my device and get a new one from a different batch, which I did, only to find the new one had the same issue. Now they want me go without my brand new device for 2 weeks while they fix it...wtf!!!

I was considering the s3, but after seeing this I am holding fire.
[Galaxy S III General] NaimC:
Yea, it is one of my few real niggles with this handset, but I have faith Supercurio will fix it. He mentioned that unlike the Note, the S3's fix was much easier and purely software based.

Also, I don't think changing S3's will solve the problem. It is my belief that ALL S3's suffer from this issue, it's just not all people realise or notice because it's not generally that obvious.
[Galaxy S III General] 353523:
Now im using Filter Your Screen with (13 Alpha; 255 Red; 225 Green; 255 Blue)

Sent from my Galaxy SIII
[Galaxy S III General] the2rrell:
look at the pictures in the thread.........

there is not gradual scaling from black to the rest of the color spectrum....if its not bright its Super Dark, no inbetween.

as in watching movies, a dark movie like the crow, or spawn. a lot of the scenes its just to dark to reallly even tell whats going on. but on my TV or even another phone, while its still dark you can SEE the difference in Blacks which defines the shapes of that scene.

or thats what i take from it anyway. i have not read anything just from my phone to other thread and pictures this is what i think it is.
[Galaxy S III General] sebarkh:
ok, thanks. Now I can name this annoying "thing" when watching avi movies. I always blamed avi files for this. But as I can remember it's a common "feature"/bug in phones. I remember the same on Nokias too.

Sent from my Galaxy SIII
[Galaxy S III General] d4fseeker:
Make sure you're on maximum brightness in a somewhat dark room and play around with the mDNIe scenarios and modes.

'Dynamic' mode doesn't allow me to see the difference, but others do - but I don't like their coloring.

Very often it's the source file. Compression works by searching for blocks (or other geometrical shapes, e.g. triangles) of approximately the same color and storing them as having the same identic color. The "stronger" the video/image/audio compression, the more such artifacts you get. (Of course it's more complicated than that, since it has to consider 3 dimensions, them being X, Y and time T)

Sometimes players try to correct these issues with post-processing algorithms (which have their downside too), so it's more noticeable on some devices than others.
[Galaxy S III General] Maelik:
The way you fixed it looks much better. I don't think it will damage the screen, because 255/255/255 is the RGB code for pure black. So essentially, if you're using a device with an OLED display, as long as the R, G, and B values all match, you should be safe.

I want try.

[Galaxy S III General] JamesR624:
True Black Question

AGAIN. Nobody has answered the question; if you use a color filter on OLED screens, will that break the "true black" (black pixels requiring power) on the screen?

If so, how can one fix it? Can you flash another kernal or at least do a nandroid back to stock to get back the "true blacks"?

I tried out this app and didn't see the warning until it was too late (please try not putting this at the bottom of a scrollable view next time developer). Now I notice that the blacks on my screen actually do light up a little, barely bur just enough to see. I'm pretty sure my blacks used to be true, as in the screen did not light up at all.

Is this normal? Are you supposed to see the blacks light up just barely when in the dark? If not, how can I fix my screen?

I believe I read it was only security updates. So I wouldn't think that it would prevent you from rooting. Mostly just flaws in how it installs things. At least this is my thought behind it. If they wanted to prevent rooting they would push that update to all carriers.

The reason why I want it is because of flashing back to stock. If you unlock using the htc dev site you are pretty much locked into 2.18. And is the reason why I am looking for a stock ruu with hboot of 2.18.

On a side note I might have another way around my problem. Anyone have the stock recovery image that can be flashed?

Hi there

For my taste when playing some music on my SGS3 (via headphones -> in-ear) I think that the volume is way too high even on the lowest volume steps.

I used SiyahKernel since it has this "voodoo implementation" that enabled to lower the volume. Now I'm using another kernel without this "voodoo stuff" and I'm looking for some MODs or Apps that might help me to lower the volume....

Are there any MODs or Apps available for this? I'm playing music via PowerAmp.

--> All currently Mods seem to enable even higher volume on the device... but none to lower the volume :-(

Then wait a few weeks when the images are posted.

Any ROM you get could have a backdoor in it. If you download from reputable source and developer, you probably don't have much to worry about.

I am on DXLE6 and rooted with CF-Root. I can't seems to upgrade to DXLF6. OTA didn't find any updates (While normal unrooted can). I tried then using KIES but after downloading firmware (phone shows download screen), it ended with error of phone not recognized.

There is no issue with the driver or connectivity as it can detect the S3, prompt software update in KIES, download the new firmware and switch phone to download mode but it stops there.

Does it mean rooted S3 can't upgrade after rooted?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_Random:
I have no solution for your problem, but all i can say is that yes, you can upgrade using kies when rooted (did that a couple days ago, too lazy to set stuff up again).

Question: do you use the original cable that came with the phone? Can imagine that this may cause the issue!

I can also confirm that when rooted software update couldnt find OTA update

I would suggest you to simply download and flash the ROM you would get from kies using ODIN. Guides and download links etc can be found using search function on XDA.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You can flash a newer version of stock firmware with CWM manager or with Mobile Odin Pro and still keep root. You don`t need Kies to upgrade.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_Random:
Yes, but as i said... Was too lazy to set everything up again (homescreens etc) plus the links sammobile.com provides i can only access using VPN, which means lousy slow downloads
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You don`t have to do a full wipe when upgrading, just wipe cache/dalvik cache.

With the download i can`t help you, download it from another pc from a friend/family and copy it to a sd card !

Unzip the downloaded .rar file once to a .tar file.

Perhaps this is known issue, something is corrupted about the USB. It just suddenly stops working 'USB Not recognised'. Tried rebooting both didn't work.

Anyone knows why the issue with USB corrupted somehow (must be software setting not hardware as reset did it).

Thanks for the response. Sounds impractical if Whatsapp confuses over which device to send incoming messages to though.

I also considered having two separate Whatsapp/Kakao accounts (one for phone and one for tablet), but it is a logistically poor idea for when one of my friends wants to start a conversation with me. They may accidentally choose to message my tablet when I only have my phone with me.

I really do not understand why Whatsapp hasn't released a non-phone based app. If someone could explain this to me, it would be appreciated. Because all I see right now is a company not developing for a booming market (think iPad and other Wifi only devices too).
