I am on my second flex hd and I am taking it off. It's been a week and the "rainbow-like" specks or clouds are appearing. It could be the adhesive that's turning into like colorful sandy appearance. Kinda annoying.

I ordered the Spectre but I am not gonna see it any sooner.

I've used dry application protectors on my other phones but its not going to work with the curved glass of GS3. Good luck.

Is it possible to get a picture of the box of the invisible shield hd you guys are using? I went by my local best buy and couldn't find it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] thacounty:
They're probably put up in their cabinets. They were told not to sell the phones so they didn't have the protectors out at my local Best Buy. I used to work there so I got it out. I don't have a picture, but they are the same box as usual with a little platinum color to them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] f3liC:
My cheap matte screen protector arrived and I have to say I am not happy with the cutout. I guess this will be a temporary one until I can find better. Once again is there anyone that can recommend an edge to edge cut out that doesn't have a rubbery feel to it? Very important that it isn't rubbery because I use swype. Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eyekyu:
awesome thank you everyone, ill make sure roaming is unchecked.

but also will the phone roam in airplane mode??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bucketachicken:
Nope, airplane mode literally turns off the GSM or CDMA radio (dunno which one you have), so roaming is not physically possible so long as airplane mode stays on. I've used the airplane mode + wifi in crappy signal areas before (*cough* at my in-laws) to save battery, and the CDMA radio was definitely off.
[General Questions and Answers] JK503:
I am looking into getting a tablet. Most of them have the Tegra 3 processor. After the Nexus 7 was announced, nVidia released the manuals for the T3. Will this mean that pure android roms will be possible on other Tegra 3 devices, like the Asus Transformer Prime Infinity or Acer a700?

I would like a 1080p tablet, but if it is going to be left behind and updates take too long, I will get the N7.

Hi,

I am using Open Germany Stock ICS Rom.

I want to use GS3 touchwiz, so I flashed RRv4_SIII_V2.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] ainen:
I've been watching various videos about Jelly Bean and I've noticed whenever the notification bar is pulled down, there are no toggles. I haven't heard or seen anything about this so it made me wonder, are they doing away with toggles in the notification bar?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1ackass:
Maybe the toggles were turned off lol:D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1SiK1500:
Is there a toggle for that?

Mind = Blown...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] ainen:
Toggle the toggles!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dmchssc:
There are no notification toggles in stock Android. ICS didn't have them either. It's just an extremely common feature in AOSP custom ROMs, so anyone who doesn't have a Nexus is used to them being a feature. CM10 will certainly have toggles, just like CM9.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] ainen:
Wow I wasn't aware of that. On my Motorola Photon I didn't have toggles either. It just seems kind of weird to me that it is not a stock ICS feature.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jgalan14:
That's one of the reason some people actually like samsung os they introduce the toggles a few years ago, some features the ICS has have been available for root users or some manufactures, but not all of them, but they think is good the google is open that's why you have flavors of cakes not just one
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Nelsocracy:
I did notice that in some of the nexus 7 videos there is an auto rotate toggle in the notification bar, but it doesn't seem to be there in every video, I was confused about that.

I ordered this MHL cable that specifically says it's made just for S3 12 days ago but hasn't turned up, so I emailed the seller asking why it hasn't turned up yet and got this reply:

we have just realised these cables are not compatible with the s3,

would you like to wait till the correct cable comes in or shall we refund

your money\?

kind regards

sunny savers.

And they didn't even try to explain why I didnt receive it even though I got email delivery confirmation 12 days ago.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tomaxda:
Thanks for warning users.

Personally, I don't think it is that vendors fault. Samsung said that the SGS3 had MHL. There have been more then 100 devices with MHL so far and they have all been compatible with each other.

There was no way for the vendor of that MHL cable (or anyone else) to know that the SGS3's MHL port is not really an MHL port.

See here for more:

http://www.galaxymhl.com/
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Michael_P:
Yeah but it looks like the seller knew that before I even put the order in yet still took payment and confirmed delivery, because after 11 days I asked them to confirm it had been sent and they just said they found out it isn't compatible and it wasn't until I emailed them that they informed me of this, and you know maybe it just got lost in the post but I really think it's more than that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droid_rager:
I was wondering if it is possible for me to create my own customized factory image with apps I hate removed and new ones added that I like so when I do a factory reset it restores the phone to the image I created, not the one that comes from the factory ? :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matlk:
Are you rooted? You can use the clockwork recovery mod to do a backup. Then you can restore it any time you want. This isnt a "factory reset" because clearly anything changed from the factory reset is no longer "factory". This will achieve your goal though.

clockwork mod site:

http://www.clockworkmod.com/

the XDA wiki:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/ClockworkMod_Recovery

You need to have root and then install the clockwork recovery mod before you can do this. You should be able to find all the info you need on google/other threads here. If not, let me know and I can help.

NOTE:

You will need ROOT not only to do the back up, but to restore it as well. This is done in the reovery menu of your phone, you will need the specific key combo for your phone to go into recovery after restarting the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LairdPleng:
Hi there

I am in a situation where I would really like to make a custom factory reset image; I have some devices to give out to people which have been highly customized. If they decide to do a factory reset then I want the image I've provided to be flashed to the device (Chinese dual-sim ICS phone) to be initialized, not the Chinese firm's image.

Is there any way to achieve this??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LairdPleng:
Custom factory reset image

anybody?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markuzy:
Root,

Move required apps to system.

Delete system apps you don't want if any.

Unroot.

Factory reset.

Or use nandroid via Cwm recovery as mentioned above.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LairdPleng:
Ah so apps in system will not get removed on a factory reset? That's interesting, thank you. Is there any way for me to preserve app settings in a factory reset? So that, for example, as well as Go Launcher being installed, the selected theme and home screen layouts would be restored? If not, I suppose it's no big issue, but it would be really helpful if I could get that fixed up.

That wouldn't be suitable. I'm actually hoping to remove the CWM recovery before handing these devices out! :)

hi i have flashed omega V7 rom on my galaxy s3 and now it charges alot slower than it did when it was stock, is there a kernel i can flash to make it charge the same speed as it did, or faster even?

it charged at approximately 1% a minute when it was standard, but now its about half that speed, maybe a bit worse.

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You know Omega has stock kernel .

Kernel descriptions are posted in the dev section one kernel has charging tweaks ..

Omega for me gives standard charging time although i have never measured charge rate per minute .

Might be worth clearing your battery stats via recovery .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottM1873:
thanks for the reply, i didnt realise it had stock kernel

ive just cleared the battery status so hopefully that helps

could you tell me what kernel has charging tweaks please?

thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JSale:
Try siyah kernel and get the app called exTweaks from the PlayStore; if you go to the misc. tab it will show charging current through USB and AC you will be able to alter the current according to whatever you feel comfortable with i would recommend no more than 1200 mA due to excessive heat and the possibility of damaging something.

I personally have the charger set to 900 mA to keep heat down whilst charging

Just wondering how do y'all phone hold up against scratches I got mine not to long ago and I allready have a couple of little scratches the screen is definitely not as tough as the nexus s was against scratches and who's rocking screen protectors...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kxs783kms:
Installed a screen protector the first second after I bought the phone. Many have this notion that a screen protector isn't needed on "gorilla glass" phones, but posts like yours proves this notion wrong.

It will be more prone to scratches.

That being said:

I've kept mine case free it's entire life.

I'm fairly OCD about where I even put the phone down.

And it always gets its own pocket.

No scratches.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
We've seen lots of complaining in the last couple of days about what is and isn't working in these ports.

It seems GPS may or may not be working correctly, that it may or may not be due to the Leap Second.

WiFi, Bluetooth, volume... if you have these issues, they can mostly be remedied. If not, gratz.

The fact is, these Roms are ports of development previews on a phone slightly but importantly different than yours running an OS that hasn't been released yet.

I was deeply amazed and impressed that some developers had working ports to CDMA the very night it was announced for GSM.

I'd you are running one of these JB ports and you find that it works well enough as a daily driver, consider yourself fortunate and hit the thanks button on the OP, maybe even donate.

If you are trying it out, but find that it lacks the stability or functionality that you require, click the thanks button on the OP anyway because they spent the time to give you something now for free that which you would otherwise have to wait weeks for, or, considering VZW's track record, maybe never.

This is how I'm looking at it- I'm getting to preview the latest update for free before it officially comes available. Just like those lucky bastards at Google I/O, except how much did they pay per ticket?

Thanks, devs, for doing what you do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
They paid $900 per ticket. But they get $1200 or so free of stuff. So they actually received 300 for going to it if you look at it that way.

Nevertheless I'm very pleased with JB. Everything is working beautiful for me. I using daily driver now without any issues. Just the stock JB at that. I'm not much for all the features of Roms. More into kernel tweaks which I do miss from glados kernel. But Franco is doing fine for now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oldblue910:
I most definitely appreciate the efforts. I ran the Vicious JB stock port on my VZW Gnex but in the end, I couldn't stick with it because the Verizon framework apps don't work on Jelly Bean yet. This means I couldn't use the My Verizon or NFL Mobile apps, and that's a deal breaker. I understand that you can blame Verizon for requiring the back end framework in order for their branded apps to work, and that's all fine and well, but at the end of the day, I couldn't run them.

Be that as it is, I still appreciate the efforts of those developers to have a working CDMA port the same night. Thanks to all who do what you do. I'm a software developer myself so I know how tedious this crap can be.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JaiaV:
That sort of depends. There are some changes that have to be made to a ROM for the GSM model to be 'ported' to the CDMA models. So, it's a 'port' for those phones, because only the GSM developer preview was 'released'.

a. Unless that's an AOKP reference I don't see how that point is relevant at all. Its just discrimination. *Haters Gonna Hate*

b. This is like my sixth or seventh Android device. Most Smartphone noobs either get a Galaxy S series phone or one of them low end dollar store Walmart clearance special Android phones.

Everyone else on Verizon has a GN because Verizon doesn't have a good phones except the Droids - And who on earth would want a Motorola?

No, wasn't a reference to AOKP.

How many of the complainers even bother to know what they're flashing?

So in that case you could easily just swap out "A" with anything else you want. You're obviously just promoting your anger towards bronies on a community that is completely irrelevant to the subject stated above.

People are just mad because AOSP isn't released yet and they're forgetting that the real release isn't out yet.

No problems here on a GSM nexus. Everything HAS to work as it's 15 days from rolling out and google wouldn't have given broken ROMS to I/O attendees. Most likely this is a RC or even more likely an RTM build. My guess is it's not out right now just because they have to test it/pack it for every variant and get ready to handle thousands of OTA updates.
