Update: yup. It worked. Full bars on WiFi in my house again. Even in areas where I had zero reception. Possibly a small drop caused the spring contact to be compressed.

Currently running. Flapjaxxx AOSPxXx ROM from Oct 23.

You didn't by chance get any pictures did you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
Unfortunately no. But its fairly easy to see where the WiFi contacts are when you open the case. When you pull the battery cover off, there is a pad/ sticker on the upper left. That's the antenna, right next to the power button and SIM tray.

NOTE: DO NOT PEEL ANY STICKERS/PADS OFF

If you take the phone apart, the contact pads are right under it.

When the housing/is separated from the screen (snaps off) you can see two gold springy contacts that look like the ones in the SIM tray. Like this > . If its flat like this _ just pry it back open GENTLY. Only like 1mm.

Then reassemble phone and test in a recently known bad WiFi area.

Mine is finally awesome again.

AWS cellular reception is still mediocre since day one tho.

OP, it's kinda customary when editing the title to [Solved] to edit the first post to add a summary of the solution or at the very least link the post, so people won't have to scroll thru all the posts just to see what was resolved.

Not an order, just a suggestion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
Edited as suggested thanks! This could have happens just from me sitting on the phone or a hard knock on the back. I've dropped it once prior. However it just suddenly happened and not immediately following the impact.

is there an app for protecting root while keeping up with latest OTA

since voodoo root keeper does not work with the galaxy S3, If someone can recommend a procedure/process to follow to maintain root and keep up with sprints updates please?

I'm just trying to figure out what the best & least time consuming way to maintain root and keep up with sprints updates please?

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gameling:
I have had my A700 for a few days now and tested the display for backlight bleed (only a tiny bit on the bottom in landscape mode) and dead pixels. Unfortunately I have cluster of two dead pixels on the top/middle and one dead pixel on the left/middle. I have run a couple pixel fix apps but to no avail. Anyone else notice any pixel issues with the A700?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] californiarailroader:
I don't on mine, sadly, it's a fact of life on all brands and across all types of tech that have LCD's, they are allowed a certain number of dead and/or stuck pixels per whatever number of LCD's produced, how many varies from company to company. Where did you get it from? If you're within your return period, I would just exchange it.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gameling:
I got it from Amazon and am considering exchanging but wanted to know if others had similar pixel issues. Mine seems to run well otherwise so kind of reluctant to exchange if I may get one that runs hotter.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] californiarailroader:
That's where I got mine too, they have a 30 day return window so you have a few days to think about it. Another think I like about Amazon, their return window doesn't seem to start until the day it gets to you, not when you order or pre order it.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Beknatok:
No pixel issues on mine. Display Tester was one of the first apps I ran, just to make sure.

Well guys as the title implies, I will talk about any and everything that comes to my mind in this thread. Look at it like Viper Lounge, but with more entertainment ranging from my personal thoughts of the phone community, mugen community, politics, military exploits, & my life experiences. Please, mods don't overreact & shut the thread down...

With that being said guys let's chat...

I live in Midtown right now bro off Jefferson & Bellevue. How's your sprint service out there lol?

The LTEVO says hello!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
I have a Sprint tower about 500 yards from my house and I get incredible 3g speeds from it. Usually in the range of 2mb down and 1.5mb up. I must be the only one on Sprint. The bad part is as soon as I leave the area it drops to crap speeds again. Were you able to connect to wimax in your area. I know Sprint turned on a couple of wimax towers in midtown and was able to connect a couple of times when I was in the area with my Evo 3D. Can't wait to get LTE. My brother in law was visiting with his new Verizon Raxer LTE and we did a speed test at my house and he got 28mb down and 19mb up on average after several tests. I hope sprint deploys in Memphis ahead of schedule.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KaoMinerva:
Yes, I do get Wimax on my evo3d and it's the same speeds as you posted. Once I get my EVO 3d fixed, I'm going back to it so I can use WiMAX. That's how I used to play my ps3 online

So in the end, did you enlist.

The LTEVO says hello!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chessmyantidrug:
Yes. I took that ASVAB at MEPS. Six forgettable years in the Marines. In high school, I scored a 90. My score expired, so I had to retest.

Nash is great but he can't defend Westbrook. I'm still undecided between Drew and Dwight. I think Dwight has acted like a bigger baby than Drew the last few months. Still need some bench scoring. Why didn't you thank my last post? WTF?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KaoMinerva:
Idk lol. Andrew is fine, just needs to mature. I like Gasol, but he's soft and needs to realize that won't cut it in the NBA, let alone on my team. If Gasol stopped settling for jump shots & played strong, we wouldn't need Dwight. I agree, the bench is weak & we need pressure off Kobe.

Ok weird question probably gona get flamed alot.

Is it possible to get the webtop to operate on the phones screen? its just so nice, had it for a min in a glitch after disconnecting the hdmi cable, ya everything was small but It gave a roomy look and kinda made me want it as a part time option.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobletsausecakebbq:
I live in Canada and I picked up a 32GB TF300T with keyboard dock for $520+tax(came out to $586... I bought this from Future Shop which is basically like Best Buy in America, but anyway. I like the tablet, but I feel I paid too much for it.

What can you guys tells me about it? What are the good and bad about it? I heard it doesn't have gorilla glass, will it scratch up without a protector?

When did this thing even come out? Is it already outdated and should I get the TF700 instead?

How is the development on this thing in general? Is the bootloader locker or unlocked?

Do you think(or have a reason to believe) that it will get updated with new Android version? I'd like to own a product that's supported by the manufacturer.

I come from an LG G2X ,and while the hardware is great, the lack of manufacturer support basically froze the phone in gingerbread stage. I wouldn't want that happening to this tablet. Do you think it will at least get the version after JB?

Just spill some knowledge on this tablet and how "future proof" it is please. Thank you have a good day.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nooktablet:
- the official price in US dollar is $399 for the tablet only and $149 for the dock, so the total is $548 WITHOUT tax. i'm sorry i don't know what currency do you use in Canada, so i can't compare.

- it's basically a very good android tablet with a reasonable price, at least for me

- it came out April 22 in the US

- asus already gave us an app to unlock bootloader, keep in mind you will void your warranty if you do.

- asus WILL DEFINITELY update this tablet to Jelly Bean,
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Dee:
LOL, we use the Canadian dollar, now it runs at par or a little above the US dollar in terms of exchange.

I paid $519, before sales tax (we pay 13% here in Ontario!) in Canada at Best Buy for the tablet and dock bundled. I don't regret this buy for a second, this tablet is awesome and has exceeded my expectations on many levels. Enjoy!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobletsausecakebbq:
Could you expend on what exactly is so extraordinary about it that it has exceeded your expectations? I've been using it for 2 days and even though its nice, I'm not *THAT* impressed. Build quality is average - it already creaks. ASUS seem to have saved materials on this one. Screen is not even gorilla glass and somewhat feels like a plastic resistive display. It freezes up on apps like Chrome Browser and even Settings quite often, I didn't expect that from a QUAD CORE device. The tablet is much heavier than the dock so it feels kinda awkward using it like that cuz it feels like I have to hold the keyboard to prevent it all from falling. There's like 3 dead pixels on the screen. Not hating just stating my observations.

However, these are all minor issues that don't prevent me from enjoying the tabet. Does anyone know if JB will take advantage of Quad Core processor in its "normal tasks" like managing multitasking, switching homescreens, etc..? Or is ICS already taking advantage of the quad core?

Also why did ASUS underclock the processor? Its at 1.2 right? and stock speed of tegra 3 is 1.3ghz?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch3mn3y:
So i dont have problems with freezing or dead pixels - in can be only on some models and asus shouuld exchange them cos of this.

Im not sure but i think that when u dont do things which need more cores, transformer is using only 1 core - other are "sleeping".

When i installed setcpu it shows (without any changes) that clock is 1.5 ghz

Sent using tf300t - stock rom/kernel (rooted)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobletsausecakebbq:
Also 1 more thing i wanted to mention. My auto brightness for some reason doesnt work as intended. If i put auto brighness on, the screen becomes very dim and i literally cant make it brighter without turning it off and back on again. As well, if i cover the light sensor, the screen doesnt change at all. I remember on my lg g2x auto brighness worked great, instantly changing the brightness if i put my finger on it. Is this a bug or is this how the transformer rolls?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathskater:
Oh bummer for you seems you got quite the lemon there lol I've had this tablet for a month now and I have not had a single issue I'm stock rooted with only build.prop mod. After each update or change in build.prop it might lag for 10-15 min on various tasks but that is just while it builds cache and cache is not a bad thing it is just how linux works.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] kmartburrito:
I have something strange happening in my car, and need some help determining what's causing it.

I have a fairly new top-tier alpine CD deck in my car, with the iphone native interface/usb/ainet inputs.

I have an iphone for work which I use strictly for audio since it's a digital interface, but I also have a window mount with a 3.5mm input that runs to a RCA AINet hook up in the back. Have used said setup for quite some time, with great results with all of my old android phones (HTC Evo 4G, HTC Hero, iphone 4 also)

When I plug the 3.5mm into my GS3, I lose basically the entire left channel, ONLY when it is also plugged into the 12v car charger (several chargers tested, same result) When not charging, the audio output is perfect like I would expect. The GS3 and my wife's GS2 do the same thing when a charger is connected, while the HTC phones and iphone do not. I also can plug the usb end into the Iphone's native USB plug connection into the back of the headunit, same results, half of the audio is cut out and there is some rough scratchy sounds.

Now, I want to see if any others can recreate this or might know if this is a ground loop issue. I don't hear engine noise which I would think is a ground loop, but this is the only conclusion I can reach. Strange is that it doesn't do it with my HTC phones or iphone. Any ideas?:confused:
[myTouch 4G General] Don_Perrignon:
So, I've had a cracked (working) screen for almost a year. Today, while helping a friend move, I guess I hit it while it was in my pocket and now I can't see crap.

So, I have an upgrade available and if T-Mo allows me to put the remaining balance on my bill, I shall walk out of the store with an SIII. Ironically enough, Sense 4.0 on the SIII doesn't have.... Working Camera:rolleyes:. And, God knows I hate Touch Wiz. I don't even understand the business concept of Touch Wiz - don't let me get started.

So, my thanks and appreciation to all of the devs, past and present, who have worked / working to make the Glacier an A+ experience.
[myTouch 4G General] invasion2:
Why not get the One S?
[myTouch 4G General] Don_Perrignon:
Can't remove the battery, no expandable memory, and no NFC. The One S in my opinion is a good-WTF phone... and the SIII has 2Gigs of RAM.

I was planning on waiting until HTC gave T-Mo a proper flagship phone, but that plan has changed.

Additionally, I plan to give whatever phone I get now to my girlfriend when she comes to visit for the holidays in Dec. When she goes back to her country, having that removable battery is very important (she can have 1 or 2 more backups) since the country doesn't get consistent electricity. When I spent a year there, you wouldn't believe how many times I charged my phone in the car.
[myTouch 4G General] Shirokishi:
lol wow, it almost sounds like time to find an alternative charge source.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] colhavoc:
Hi,

I bought a second hand Galaxy S a week or so ago that was modded with ICS installed. Since then, i've installed CM 7.2 and would like to unlock the phone for my mom so she can use it on Telus. When I bought it, I was told it was a Bell Galaxy S and since Bell and Telus work on the same network, it should be possible (I don't think it's a Rogers Galaxy S). It is already rooted and I tried the app Galaxy S Unlock buit it won't unlock the headset. The bars stay greyed out with a little X and no service. Can't get this to work, anyone have any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PatcheZ:
Try a different unlock app.

Otherwise, try flashing a rooted stock rom and try the unlock app again

Those apps are the easiest way to unlock the s.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mregmi121:
Did you install busy box before using the app?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] colhavoc:
I have it installed via app market, yes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] colhavoc:
I tried another one called SGS Unlock Tool and it said my unlock and unfreeze code were the same: :null

Does that means it is unlocked, or is something else wrong? How can I go back to stock rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mregmi121:
I've unlock 7/8 galaxy s and galaxy s II using helroz's app. Not sure whats gone wrong with you. Make sure you followed the procedures properly, and installing the busy box means open the app that you downloaded from market and choose busy box and install. Good lock:cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] colhavoc:
Well, I tried it and no go. Still getting the same problems. Not sure where or what to do from here.

[LG Nitro HD] davefootball123:
Thanks Hono. Will try right now and report back. Should we see any performance enhancements compared to the CM9 RC1?

EDIT: WOW is all that I can say. It is very smooth. For me its smoother than the ICS leak which was the smoothest rom I have used. GREAT JOB!

[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I haven't really noticed much of a performance improvement over CM9-RC1 with v5 kernel personally, but I'm glad this exists. I've been using HO!NO!'s roms and kernels since he started dev-ing for the Nitro, because they always have incredible battery performance.
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
That's weird.. it's like night and day for me.
[LG Nitro HD] dillonr:
How is the battery life on this compared to CM9, and stock?

If it is comparable (or better) i might go with this ROM instead of cyanogen, because it seems as if this is much quicker than both :)

i am just wondering because of the speed increase and the overclock.
[LG Nitro HD] aaki_rocker:
tbh i myself didnt experience any performance improvements over cm9 !

i experienced some mini freezes while playing music and unlocking the lockscreen !

maybe ho!no! could fix this !

went back to cm9 07/02 nightly with default kernel for better battery life !
