Thank you for the answer...

Any recommendation stable and fast ROM for me?

Another question if I want to flash to OMEGA 7.0 ROM can I just simply flash from my phone setup now : IMM76D.I9300XXALF6? Because ROM OMEGA 7.0 they use Based on XXALF5...Should I downgrade to XXALF5 then flash rom to OMEGA 7.0 or I can straight away flash base on my current setup?

Still learning and learning and learning and learning....Please don't dont giveup teaching me...hehehe...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffnz:
Read and follow directions of the Rom you choose. Make sure you do backup first then,if you don't like it you can go back or flash another. Runs are pretty subjective and cater for a variety of tastes so hard to recommend one. Most want super fast with best battery life but there is a trade off
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
You should always factory-reset when changing Rom's.

It thus doesn't matter what ROM and version you come from and go to.

I'm still running ALE8 with Siyahkernel. Works great after a few customizations and tweaks applied as found here in the forum. Most ROM's have trade-off's (e.g. they want to slim it down and remove libraries or features I consider worth it)

You won't see a real performance difference between Samsung-based ROM's.

Actually you _WILL_ see a difference at the beginning since your phone is then again factory-new without lots and lots of apps and background services.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Hurm that mean you only flash kernal only not the ROM issit?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Thank you for the info...will try find the best rom suite with me...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Why I can't paste Omega 7.0 ROM in my Internal SD Card?

Is sit because the file is to big or the format files?

I9300_Omega_v7.0_XXALF5.zip = 663MB
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Can Paste already...After redownload the rom...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Ok now I have already in Omega 7.0 ROM. How to get my contact and sms back? I have already backup using nandroid...should I just restore it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apisfires:
Wrong very wrong, you sync contact with Gmail before flashing custom ROM? If not, you will loss everything,
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayut:
Contact no problem....I mean sms...Like this...If I want to flash to other rom I need to fully wipe issit... 1. Wipe Data 2. Wipe Cache 3. Wipe Davik... So All gone...like brand new phone...I have already do nandroid backup..but If I restore back it will go back my previous rom...

So how to backup sms only so I can restore to any flash rom?

Thank you for helping...

Thanks! :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] burhanistan:
I have that one. It's worked with both a LG G2X and a Samsung Galaxy Note. I think most devices need to be hooked up in sequence for it to work properly (charger first then HDMI, or vice versa).

Edit: Oops, I meant Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket, not LG G2X (that one had its own HDMI out). Too many devices last year...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:
The reviews from people owning the Galaxy Nexus state that it has awful performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shamrock13:
Do you experience any choppiness or anything of that sort?

I just noticed the extra reviews. I need one for vacation, and this was one of the top ones on Amazon. If this doesn't work, I can always return it. That's not a problem. I just really need one.

Do you have any recommendations for MHL adapters on Amazon?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shamrock13:
What about the other one in my OP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thorasaurus:
I have the Skiva one. Works well. I PM'd you about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hypersonicx:
If you need one "ASAP" why not just run down to the TMobile store and pick one up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] systemlayers:
I just bought one off of monoprice, 9 dollars. I'm sure by reviews it will work fine and monoprice has never failed me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shamrock13:
I don't have a TMobile store near me at all, and plus, I'd like to not pay out me butt cheeks. I need one by tomorrow and I figured I could use Amazon and get it for cheap with one day shipping with my Prime account.

That's too expensive when I toss in shipping. I would definitely have checked them out if I would have thought about this sooner. Sadly, I just thought about it last night, but I was busy with work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pamulli:
I understand that wifi calling does not work on the current crop of ICS ROMs and from what I have gathered there are some proprietary pieces that make wifi calling on the SGS4G different than any other phone, so my question is whether anyone plans on bringing this to any of the ICS Roms? It's a requirement for me because of lousy T-Mobile signal strength at home and work. I keep reading through all the ICS ROM posts to see if anyone is working on it and so far I haven't seen anything so I thought I'd ask. I'm sure that getting all the core functionality is at the top of the list for most devs, but hopefully this one won't fall by the wayside.

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
This is on the list. However getting the builds stable and pretty much bug free is top priority.

A temporary fix is try grooveip from the play store. There is a lite version that only works on wifi. It uses google voice to make calls using a wifi/data connection make calls. I know you can make texts show up as your mobile number and Im almost positive the same with your number. If not just tell people its a extension. The only downfall is if you get a call to your regular number it will not ring to the phone just go to your VM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pamulli:
Using grooveip isn't an option for me because I can't use a different number. My cell is a work phone and too many people have the number to try to get them to use something different.

I'm glad to know it is being worked on. I will continue to use GB until this gets resolved.

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jasoncallahan:
sigh.... i'm also eager to use ICS, but need wifi calling. I'll keep lurking until thats an option (or I get a new phone)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adl51:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adl51:
It worked for me at least after testing it at work (I loose signal as soon as I work into the building). I was able to send out text messages without any problems but was unable to test wifi calling since I am struggling with a weak wifi signal. Is there a way to flash modems? I have tried booting into recovery and flashed moddem and unmmoded modems with no success.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
OK wifi calling doesn't support wifi texting, I know because I have tried. So you were definetely mistaken. There is no wifi calling app built into any current ICS rom because of the lack of the kernel kineto drivers. It's not a bug hypothetically. It is just not there.That's like saying that NFC worked on this phone. So there is no possible way for a fluke.

I work in the second level basement of my building. We call it the dungeon, and if you ever visit you'll see why. (That's not a bad thing because users are generally afraid to come down here). Lacking the required dev skills I have been waiting for a post-MIUI2.0 or ICS rom that worked out the wifi calling problem. Looks like someone's moving the ball for the HTC Sensation, Galaxy Note and maybe other devices.

Against reason and explicit warning I tried these updates anyway. Wifi calling installs, but never completely initializes to run. One update temporarily broke my radio/modem which I fixed by flashing back to stock and moving forward to miui2.0. Luckily I did not brick my phone!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Two options.

1. Use grooveip or something similar as a work around. Forward calls while at work to your google voice number.

2. Start a bounty thread to get wifi calling working on the sgs4g. It sounds like there are a bunch of people that need it and if five of you throw in 20 bucks that is a 100 dollar incentive to get it working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] loldan:
wifi texting does work

I'm pretty sure it does. Other than anecdotal evidence like I send texts through WiFi Calling in my dead zones (basements, work, friend's homes), if you were on KJ6 modem and couldn't send extended texts (it'd fail to send), you could send them just fine through WiFi Calling without flashing another modem. So, I'm not sure what method you tried so it could have been something unique about your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Alfred E.:
Me too

Text over wifi works for me too on KJ6. Never send really long texts so I never dropped back to KG4; I'm satisfied with my ValBlack gingerbread rig in this way.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chogau1:
I have also the motorola defy and no one was able to make wifi calling work on Ics, most devs are from outside the Us and no one really cares, they are really good, one even ported JB already. But the SGS4G is tmobile only, so hopefully someone can make it work, tmobile signal is spotty and wifi calling is a must have. Iam staying on GB until its fixed

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankStealth:
SOLVED , by factory reset :(

The most important clue i got was from a google reply i found on their forums: Gtalk app wasnt working either, so i dindnt have a connection to their servers.

I did a factory reset and reflashed my used rom, then CF root. Google play worked.

For this thread not to be so boring, some trivia:

I didnt do a standard backup. I entered all the settings by scratch. I did backup my contacts, memo, calendar, sms, emails with Samsung Kies. Restore worked without problems. I had these games with some progress, so i copied everything from /sdcard to my computer before factory resetting. I installed the games from google play and without starting them, i copied all stuff i found about those games back to /sdcard and /sdcard/android. Everything was where i left them, didnt have to login or something...

I suspect that i uninstalled some vital service that google play needs to run like maybe gtalkservice, but i cant really tell what happened. And what i especially dont get is why didnt the missing services or whatever didnt reinstall just by flashing, before factory resetting, like the app market did, cause thats what i tried in the first place.

All those infos about regional settings, market enabler and that sort of stuff were misleading for me! I guess it wasnt a server error after all.

Heres a very nice link with important/unimportant programs that galaxy s2 comes with. Cant really understand the language its in, but that table is very useful: YES NO and CAUTION with their respective colors says it all:

???( cant paste link due to foreign characters, using xda app)???

So just google for "mygalaxys2.com sammy apps", its the first link, then scroll down to the table.

Hi there!

I have the Samsung SGS3 running on ICS and I am looking for a possibility to invoke the stock TW app switcher (the one that appears when you keep the home button pressed) via a homescreen widget/button/whatever.

One of the other launchers I've tried (was it Go launcher or Apex?) had such a button at the homescreen: When pressed, the action launched the app switcher.

Does anyone know any solution for that?

I am wanting to pick one up today but I would like to know if the audio on the video recording is good? I have an EVO 4g and if i try to take a video at a concert or loud setting it is worthless. I would like to be able to record live music and have it sound decent, is it possible with an unmodded S3?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] lblacklol:
+1 on this.

I have the Verizon Galaxy Nexus and the audio is absolutely worthless in a concert setting. I came from the Droid X and it actually performed quite well in that same setting so I was disappointed with the GNex. I have an SGIII preordered through Verizon and I'm hoping the audio won't crack up and break like the GNex does.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] stang3O2:
my brother has the droid razr and he just recorded a bunch of a recent Roger Waters The Wall concert and it was great for a phone, if the S3 is as good as that I would be happy.

I tested mine at a concert the other night and the video was decent but audio was horribly distorted and static filled. My old BB Torch will be kept around for concert videos until I decide to buy a separate video camera.

Hi everyone,

Today i found one folder using touchexlorer its called ZipView (ApplicationData/Volatile/). When we download a zip File in IE the contents of the zip file will be in this folder.

So to download MP3s

--> Download a .ZIP file containing MP3 file.

--> Upon completion open ZIP then the MP3. Do not close IE or the files from the ZipView folder will be deleted.

--> Press Windows key and open any file manager like Touchexplorer and Navigate to ApplicationData/Volatile/Zipview and open any new folder created it should be named 809022 or any other numeric name.

--> Copy the MP3 file from there to another folder(You must do this or the file will be deleted when u quit). This file can be played by TouchXperience but not by Zune.

--> If u want that file to be played by Zune. You need to copy that MP3 to PC then sync again with Zune. Now it can be played by Zune player

Tell me if this trick have helped you Or you are having problems.
