[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
They gave away Galaxy Nexuses to developers at Google I/O. These specific models got a "preview" release of 4.1 Jellybean OTA'd to them to use before it comes out officially. This is

not

an official or final build until the images and source are posted. They indicated "mid July" as the timeframe for 4.1 OTA's to the GSM Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and Motorola Xoom.

We'll see when it official releases. Considering that it's not out yet, we don't know what has changed lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dlxowhd:
thanks for replying..

let me ask one more...

right now i have rooted official/clean ics 4.0.4..

so if i update to 4.1 ota jb, will i lose root access and my installed apps?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If all you've done is rooted, then you'll get to take the OTA just fine. If you've changed fonts, system apps, applied a custom recovery, etc... you can't take the OTA. Use an app like "OTA root keeper" to save your root from being removed when the update applies.

You won't lose data, apps, or anything like that. It just updates the OS...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dlxowhd:
i have custom fonts and i also have custom recovery (i think)..

so if i do ota update, i have to unlock my bootloader and root it all over again?

because it took me hours and hours to do it for ics..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
/me is speechless.

Data wipes are an essential part of rooting and flashing, suck it up.

Buy titanium back up.

good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] super_dk:
Once rooted, why wait for OTA, go and get custom ROMS and if you are looking to get Jellybean, it is available in the respective forums (GSM/CDMA). It is not "official" but nevertheless, it works. You will have to wipe your data and cache but you can save all your apps by using titanium back up or other such apps and restore them once you get the rom. I have been using it for two days and have found it to be snappier than ICS and Google Now and the new notifications are awesome. The only problem I have encountered is the GPS which takes long time to get a fix and is quite inaccurate lot of times. So if you can deal with that, take the plunge otherwise wait for the "official" build.

The GPS issue has been reported to be caused by the new maps update. I tried using the maps in the browser and it worked, dont know what to think of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You cannot apply the OTA then

. It won't work. You'll have to either install a custom ROM (if that's your thing), or flash back to stock 4.0.4 and wait for the official OTA or update images.

If it took you hours to do the first time, you did something wrong, sorry. Its extremely easy to unlock, root, and flash the Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsxtypes72:
Seriously? Unlocking and rooting a GN is about the easiest phone I've ever done. It does not take hours and hours. I suggest you read up. Once you unlocked and rooted you don't have to do it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kudoboi:
it took me 4 mins.. idk how u took hours
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MLonon:
Can I get that in stock?

Not trying to hijack the thread but, which JB Rom version is "stock"? The ones that I see in the GSM Dev section all seem to have some MODs applied to them.

Your music, pictures, and apps saved on Titanium/Rom Toolbox will be saved.

So really U've got nothing to lose as long as u back ur apps in titanium or Rom Toolbox.

Them after u back up, hit wipe user data and flash the Rom and done.

Then turn it back on and then open titanium or Rom toolbox and hit restore.

Then just customize and it'll seem like nothing has happened to ur user data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
I have a file that doesn't require a wipe.

Soooooo yeah. It's not needed if u got the correct file. And don't nag at me "oh but u get issues!!! And blah blah blah."

Guess what it works perfectly fine every time.

Do you think The Samsung Galaxy S3 can avoid a similar fate?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
No worry. By the time Apple pins down GS3, I will long selling off my GS3 for GS4 :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceo.mtcl:
Haha my thoughts exactly. I'll wait till the end of this year to see the next nexus launch :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
I definitely think the SGS3 is in trouble, but before they can file anything Samsung is probably quickly working on a fix just in case the inevitable happens.

It's going to take them a few months to get all the paper work processed etc.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hefonthefjords:
Anything apple brings out will still run ios and still be tied to itunes therefore wont ever beat a fast android device for me.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:
Apple are just a bunch of over rated ass bandits and their products are over priced ****e tbh
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohebq:
didn,t you guys read the article related to the design of sgs3? it clearly suggested that the current design was made by lawyers to save from any trouble from.apple
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echim192:
GS3 injunction

First, the injunction obtained was a preliminary injunction based on a utility patent related to the universal search on the gnex. Somehow, apple was able to prove that they would be "irreparably harmed" absent an injunction based on this one patent. I still don't know how this is possible because it involves showing that people will buy the Gnex over the iphone because of this one feature.

Second, since it is a preliminary injunction based on a software element, all samsung has to do is change the disputed software element slightly. This is what allowed them to resume selling the SGSII in europe, and I believe the galaxy tab but I could be wrong. Once the change is implemented, voila, injunction pending final court decision.

Samsung, if they were smart, could very easily fix this situation by rolling out a software update. Also, I believe the judge said that this would clog an already over crowded docket, and this should be addressed at their trial date at the end of july. i guess if anything were to happen, it'd have to be after july 30th anyways

I think its interesting to note that apple has very little design patents succeeding on the merits, and really just minuscule utility patents for things like the lock screen and universal search. And I don't believe that's the reason any of US actually buy these phones.

I'm interested to hear other's thoughts on this, too

Sources: patentlyo.com, the verge and engadget's recent articles on Koh's denial of injunction on SGSIII. I can't post links yet because i'm too new. Also studying patent law in law school.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
It's not just the design or design at all. That was for the Galaxy Tab and SGS1. It's the software and how we open up links with different apps, etc.

HTC already lost that one.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
^^^^^

This.

Apple's not going after Samsung or HTC per se, their after Google and Android in general. Since Google doesn’t produce their own h/w, Apple’s going after their partners that do. The injunction they just won is based on a feature integral to Android and with a victory (preliminary, it could still be overturned at trial and appeal after that) there's nothing stopping them from quickly applying the same argument to just about every Android device produced. I fully expect they will and of all the targets out there I can’t think of a better one than the SGS3. Second would be killing the Nexus 7 before it gets a chance to launch. HTC seems to be the weakest Gazelle so they may start there to get a few more notches in their belt before going after Samsung again. Sad really. All of Apple’s victories still won’t make me buy their products. I’d get a Windows phone if that was the only other option.

Samsung's different than the other manufacturer’s Apple's going after because of the "slavish copying" thing. Clearly the SGS1 and early G-Tab's were influenced by Apple's design. There’s a good chance that’ll get thrown out at one or more trials (or appeals) though based on "prior art;" meaning Apple got the patent but on designs that are document to have preceded theirs. The SGS3 is safe because of the "designed by lawyers" thing.
[HTC One X] freddyson:
I have a Rogers HTC One X that is fully unlocked and rooted. I have multiple apps on the phone that the phone needs to be rooted for and they work great. When i rooted the phone i used the one click root tools. I am trying to flash a new ROM on to my phone, but i cant get CWM to boot. I follow all the steps to flash it on the phone, but then when i do the power and volume - and then click recover, all i get is the HTC screen and then it reboots over and over and over.... until i push power again and start it up again.

Another note, i was able to get the other mod to work, the tradewin or something like that, but for some reason when i use that one it wont actually install the ROM i am trying to install. Its the Android Revolution HD. All the forums i read it says to use CWM but i cant load into it. Does anyone know how to help me with this?

Thank you! :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X] teky:
Try and flash CWM recovery over and then do "fastboot erase cache" - do that twice, then try and boot into the recovery without restarting the phone..... you need to choose hboot from the phones screen and then recovery.
[HTC One X] freddyson:
what is the command prompt code to erase the cache? i know i saw that before i just cant seem to find it again. I am still a little new with this stuff.

Thank you!
[HTC One X] teky:
its:

fastboot erase cache

;)
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Before you do anything further, can you confirm that you have the international HOX and not Rogers HOX as they talked here : http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538

Flashing something that is not meant for your device will brick it.
[HTC One X] freddyson:
That didn't work. I will explain exactly what i do.

Push power and volume -

Then i click fastboot, plug in my phone and do the CWM

I did that twice

Then after done i clicked bootloader

Then recovery

Phone just keeps restarting. Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks
[HTC One X] freddyson:
Sorry i am a huge noob with that. What is the HOX, i used the one click root tool to do everything. How can i check if i have already screwed up the phone?
[HTC One X] teky:
sorry, the rogers part didn't register in my head before posting..... try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671873
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
HOX is shortform of Htc One X.

You really need to make sure you flash the right CWM. The one for International HOX will not work for Rogers HOX.
[HTC One X] freddyson:
Ok i will try this and see if it works!
[HTC One X] freddyson:
Thank you! This worked!!

However i have one other question now,

When i go to install the new ROM (Android revolution HD 6.1) it goes through the setup but when i click install it just says finished, something unmounted (i forget exactly what was unmounted) and doesnt install

I know this is totally different question now, just thought id ask

Thank you!
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
None of the International Htc One X ROMs will work for you.

For Rogers Htc One X, only ROMs from here will work for you

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1541

And you should be in forum for Rogers One X, not here.
[HTC One X] freddyson:
Ahhh, ok thank you very much for all your help!

HOX international version same issue

i am having the same issue. My HOX is on CM9 and wont boot in recovery. and i installed CMW recovery. any advice pls let me know
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
Returned evo lte due to data dropouts and crap reception for the photon with hopes of getting the gs3. Will the gs3 have similar data issues due to the new 4g radios in these new sprint phones? So far the photon reception is insane.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
I think most people would agree that the Photon is well known among Sprint phones to be the champion when it comes to reception. If you're hoping for reception like it had in the GS3, I wouldn't hold your breath. I had the EVO LTE before the GS3 & the reception was about the same between the two. Samsung did do us a service in improving the radio slightly in the GS3 over the GS2 though. I get approximately 2-3 dBm better reception with my GS3 over my GS2 in the same spots. YMMV. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jbadboy2007:
As far as cdma Motorola has a patent that allows them superior radio quality. Does anyone know one that patent will expire? Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
Should I stick it out with the photon and skip on the gs3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
Dude, the SGS3 is the pinnacle of smartphone hardware you can own in the WORLD, regardless of network, right now. It is an amazing piece of technology. Like I said, if you expect to see reception like you do with the Photon, that's probably going to be a pipe dream. But I think you'd be crazy not to at least try it out. Am I biased? Yeah, mostly! ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ScottyBeGood:
Great time for a return. Verizon SGSIII should be out shortly, return that Photon, pick up that SGSIII should receive equal to +/- reception and you'll be in excellent condition. I couldn't do the EVO LTE, looking forward to Verizon, again :good:.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
As long as you can swing the limited data. :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
Just got off the phone with best buy and according to them, I should get the gs3 right away since I preordered which should be in my 30 day return policy with best buy. Ill give it a shot and if I see the same poor reception as the evo lte, Ill go back to the photon. As far as going back to verizon, not happening, I just did an assumption of liability with some one on xda an gave up my unlimited. Couldn't justify spending 150 a month for three lines with only one smartphone, 700 minutes, and only 200 text per line. Now I'm spending about 165 for all three lines two of which are iphones for my wife an mother in law. On the 1500 data unlimited. Sprint in my area is fine for service and will only improve as they make network upgrades plus I should be grandfathered in my current plan if they ever decide to change policy. Again this is all speculation, not fact. Here's to hoping the gs3 doesn't drop data the way the beautifully designed evo lte did.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
I agree, Sprint ftw! Also, the EVO LTE is beautiful, but once you have the GS3 in hand I doubt you'll be disappointed from a design perspective. It's gorgeous & also more comfortable to hold IMHO. Hopefully the signal strength will be better for you, too! Good luck in your endeavor. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
I don't know maybe it was a fluke thing with being defective, like I said if the gs3 fails in that dept ill be back to the photon. This sucks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TweetyBear:
I have the evo lte currently and was thinking of getting the sgs3 also. I went into t-mobile store today to play with one and I wasn't exactly blown away by it. device looks odd because of the really rounded corners. I compared screen sizes and could barely see the difference. I still can't decide :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shook187:
I think both phones are excellent phones and the which one is better, is a silly argument. Ultimately both phones will tackle just about any task you throw at it and any performance differences will be minimal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jgalan14:
Reason why I switch wasn't much cause I didn't like my Evo but more because sprint service really not good most of the time, I had to let it go :( but the GS3 is a really great device tho
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] limeaid:
I had the evo lte and returned it due to poor reception and other issues. I've had much better results with the gs3. I also owned the photon before and while the gs3 is not quite as good as the photon, I'd say in 90% of areas I am in, there is no noticeable difference in reception.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TweetyBear:
my service is perfectly fine with the evo. wish I had better data speeds though :banghead: everything about evo is perfect for me lol. but I halfway wasn't to try a Samsung galaxy device. I'll just get both lol :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Vertig0:
Dav, you get what you pay for... I'm with Sprint and I put a pre-orders for 2 S3 with Verizon. I cant even load Google maps while on the train here in LI NY. IMO after Sprint went with the iPhone my speed went from awesome to pure garbage, yes, you get unlimited but what good does it make if you can't even stream a song without skip.

If you want to check how Sprint is doing where you live try check here network.sprint.com
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
on LI too! Ditched sprint all together, cant justify spending $225 for service thats barely there. Giving t mobile a shot and if that doesnt work, im going back to a pager and some pocket change for a payphone! Im still in my 14 day return period with sprint and was able to port my numbers over, got three lines with 1000 minutes unlimited text, 2gb high speed data with the unlimited slow 3g thing. went with the one s for myself and two nokia lumia 710's for my wife and mother in law at $145 a month. Anything above $150 is pushing it with theses greedy cell companies. Att wanted $200 for something similar to sprint and verizon is about $190. I know a few people with t mobile on LI that say service is fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jgalan14:
So you got yourself a GS3 how you liking tmobile?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davwman:
Never got the gs3 and ended going one s
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jgalan14:
Really? The one s is nice but after using galaxy nexus and evo my eyes would actually get tired after reading for while, that's why I changed and also some apps don't look as updated as the evo ones, like the mail and contacts, when you swype the bottom part in the contacts apps you don't get the cool animation, and the email app wouldn't display some stuff correctly, nice phone tho, really thin device
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iTbagdUrMac:
I just got a white gs3 from bb. The plastic, glitter filled light blue ring around the edge of the blue s3 is unbearable in my opinion. The white around the screen is distracting but, I'm sure I can find a skin to cover this part. I had the evo lte for a week. The evo will be returned tomorrow.

There is only ONE reason I am returning the elte, a NON-replaceable battery! All cell phones I have had always had the ability to change the battery. I have never tethered my phone to the wall waiting for it to charge. Just pop a charged battery in from the wall charger and voila a full charge in less than one minute. Why HTC made the elte without this feature is beyond me.

The elte is a vastly superior design compared with this s3. I already miss the camera button, the beautifully recessed screen, and the general high quality feel of the metal evo. Without a replaceable battery, none of the superior design features matter.

As far as the speed comparing the 2, the s3 seems much faster and smother in the 2 hours I have used it. I was having soft reboots with the elte and a generally bloated, almost lagggy feeling. I'm sure this could be remedied with root.

Coming from the OG epic running RandomRom, and occasionally CM9, this seems like a nice upgrade. I used the physical kb on the epic the majority of the time so losing nearly half of my screen space when typing is going to take some acclamation.

I am by no means saying that the Galaxy S3 is not a high quality device but, design wise, it is no where near the quality of the Evo LTE. Operationally the S3 wins hands down so far.

I still have the evo sitting here, wishing it had a replaceable battery. If anyone wants to know more of my opinion between the evo and s3, just ask.

As far as reception goes, the s3 seems to have a more stable signal than the evo. I am showing a constant 3 bars where the evo would occasionally drop off completely in Treasure Island FL. Sorry but, I haven't checked the actual db of both.

Maybe I should have started a new thread for this post...
