[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liferider:
Hey guys,

Have had the SGS3 for about a bit over a month, and it has been fine all this time.

I'm now noticing that its constantly reconnecting to my wifi network. Even when i'm just using the phone, it drops out and reconnects.

Anyone else having this issue?

Is it possible to 'overclock' the vibrate. Its worse than my galaxy s and thats part of the reason why i upgraded...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techfanatic9:
Are you willing to take the chance? Overclocking the vibration could result in major hardware issue! I would high NOT recommend ( if it is possible). Just keep it closer to your leg ( assuming you put it in your pocket) and you should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Mist of the custom kernels allow a vibrator speed change.

However, most users noticed that the vibration seemed LESS intense at both lower/higher values...

The default values seem to be tuned to the weight of the vibrating head.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Dude there are almost no good reasons to enhance the vibrator on a phone.

But why would u want to enhance the vibrator beyond Max???:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xGary:
So I know im ought to get some bias asking this question on here but I am wondering whether I should get the Galaxy Nexus or HTC One X.

The HTC One X obviously has the better hardware (screen, processor, BT 4.0, battery, etc) but the thing the Galaxy Nexus has is the stock Android experience and priority OS updates. But im guessing that the HTC One X will have unofficial ports of stock Android.

So I guess the question is, should I go for the Galaxy Nexus that is Google and will get stock Android that is customized for it or should I get the HTC One X that has better hardward but will have to get unofficial ports of Android to it.

Edit: Accidentally posted this in general. Can mods please help me move this into QA. Sorry

That thread is about specs. If I was looking for specs then I would've gotten the HTC One X already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedyink:
I'd go for the Nexus if you can get past the pentile display. I'm a very picky person, and while I do notice it from time to time I can definitely live with it. I'm not too sure why anyone needs a quad core phone to e-mail or text someone. I do like to game, but most don't work well on touch screens, so the high end games that actually tax the thing I don't really enjoy playing. Give me Block Breaker HD over any of the high end titles anyday.

My main reason for going with the Nexus is timely updates and lots of customization. I mean, I'm using Jellybean and it's not even released yet. Coming from HTC and Sony this is definitely a nice change.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oxirane:
Well, if you go for a Nexus you might have to get it used if you don't order soon considering the current ban... which might make your decision a bit easier.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
For everlasting support, go Nexus, anything else, go One X.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
I have the One X now, have had the Gnex before and, am getting it again from the play store.

The One X is a very nice phone design-wise. I like the design better than the Gnex. It has HTC sense which is not that bad this time and runs very well with ICS, this is one of the reasons I got it. The One X doesn't have the software buttons like the Gnex so your getting all the use of the 4.8 inch screen, making it seem bigger. You can't remove the battery but from my experience, the battery will last all day once you charge and discharge it a few times. The One X has LTE and can fall back on HSPA+ (the faster version).

The Gnex is a pure Google phone and with Jellybean running on it that makes the choice easy for me. I'm a fan of pure Google. The Gnex is also nice design-wise with it's black screen with no logos on the front and, slim curved shape. From the videos I've watched, the Gnex running 4.1 (jellybean) runs just as good, if not better than the One X. The Gnex only has HSPA + and it seems like the slower version form my experience.

Overall I like the Gnex but, it just depends what you looking for. You can't go wrong with either. When I get mine I'll be able to really compare them side by

side. In my opinion, what ruins the carrier phones is how they put the skins on them without giving people a choice to run pure Google. A One X or S3 running pure Android 4.1 would be super phones.

HTC One X vs Galaxy Nexus

Jelly Bean
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
Took my Jellied out Nexus to the store the other day.

Honestly thought my Nexus was faster than the AT&T One X.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike21pr:
I had both (AT&T One X BTW). And although the HOX has better hardware no doubt, I like the GNEX better overall and heres why

*Its a Nexus... Updates galore!!!

*On screen buttons are more attractive to me (beats the lazy menu button the HOX uses on un-updated apps)

*Jellybean..... OMFG Jellybean!!!! I used to hate that the GNEX had a weak-ish processor but project butter made me shove my tounge down my throat. It is smoother than the HOX with ICS overall and its gonna take a while till an official update for HTC, when they smear Sense all over it. I am more than pleased with the performance

*No S-ON/S-OFF woes like HTC phones

* $10 unlimited data :-D

What i miss from the One X. The camera quality, the smooth curved feel of the screen when you glide your finger to the edge, the soft touch texture of the body, LTE speeds
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jesusice:
Get the Nexus. Fastboot oem unlock FTW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] el_barrows:
I bought a HTC ONE X and used if for 14 days before selling it for a Galaxy Nexus. While the HOX was a beautiful looking phone and had a better screen and faster processor I just couldn't adjust to sense ui after coming from stock android on my nexus s previously. Apart from this the set i had was suffering from overheating issues...don't know if its with all quad core processors but that phone really cant handle the hot weather here in Pakistan (46 Degrees Celcius today) and was more often than not running at 50 to 56 degrees with wifi on or when charging. This overheating was also causing weird screen issues which i researched and found was common in the HOX. Overall I dont regret getting rid of the one x and getting a galaxy nexus :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arthur Hucksake:
I liked the One X, I had three of them. All had different hardware faults. The battery drained too fast for my liking as well. Amazing idle time, soon as you use it... drains like crazy. Even worse than the Nexus does, if you can believe such a thing.

New Nexus is a seemingly perfect phone. The Note would have been if it didn't have Touchwizz on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ste1164:
I had a htc one x but also had loads of issues with quality control. This only seems to affect the quad core one x so I think you will be fine if you get the XL. I prefer sense to stock myself :o. But jellybean on the nexus looks amazing and I'm getting mine this week :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] romgorz:

To be perfectly honest, you're a fool if you get a non-Nexus Android phone.

Am I really the only one who thinks the One X is Fugly?! The One S is far better easier on my eyes. I have two friends who own both versions and it's just an ugly ass device and lags stupid. The Nexus is so gorgeous. Get it. Who the hell really needs a quad core anyways..?! Unless MAYBE if you're running it on a tablet..

It should be. I DO NOT include anything kernel related that could screw up your phone if you're not on T-Mobile. I had several users post in the Lean Stock thread that it was working fine on AT&T. If there is an issue, let me know please so I can make sure to clarify that in the OP.

You should not have an issue though, to my knowledge.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arcadia310:
I just received my Google Play Nexus and as soon as I booted it up to the first screen I could tell the display was trash. It was stupidly purple and grainy. I know this isn't normal because I've owned 2 GSM Nexi previously. Even without owning them, it's pretty easy to see something is wrong with the display. How does this get released to the public?

I really don't feel like going through multiple replacements until I get a good screen. What are my options as far as guaranteeing a good screen? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
send it back and get a new one or flash a kernel and change the colors.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nmp591:
Pretty much nothing, going to have to stick with it or do a bunch of the advanced replacements or return it. I'm about to be on my fourth galaxy nexus. Even when I requested the most recent one they were bullshitting me telling me I was out of warranty when it had only been 1 week from the last replacement. I have wasted about 3hrs the past 2 days on the phone and got nothing but big fat NOs for any more returns and they told me id have to send in a repair and this was from a level 3 advanced return employee. This asshole level 3 god of samsung decided to make notes on my file saying I was out of warranty and not to advance replace my phone. He apparently was for sure that warranty was only for 14 days from date of purchase and would not listen to me. Thankfully I called a couple times more until I got connected with someone who sounded like they had the slightest amount of intelligence without redirecting me (i had to call very many times because mostmof the regular employees were seeing the notes the douche left on my account about not allowing me to advanced replace and telling me no)and ended talking to a standard employee who normally takes care of repairs/returns and she was like wtf u are still under warranty I'll fix everything in the records and send you a new one.

IMO if I were you I'd do anything to get rid of that phone without going thru Samsung. They'll bull**** you and run u around in circles and youll waste plenty of life on the phone with their garbage customer service. END RANT

I was pretty much set on returning my phone to Google and take the 15% restocking fee until this rep figured out the issue andhelped. She was honestly the last call I was gonna make and if it wasn't resolved after then I was getting rid of the nexus and taking the 60$ loss instead of being stuck with this garbage screen nexus they sent me as a replacement phone

I've owned two GSM Gnex's and never had a issue with the screen. I hope the one I get Thursday is ok.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] secondclaw:
I went through a single replacement with Google then returned the replacement because it was worse than the original. If purple bothers you, a custom kernel - like Trinity - will definitely fix it. However nothing can be done about grain and banding. My suggestion is return the phone and don't bother exchanging it if the latter two bother you.

I have seen a good gnex side by side with mine and I want to cry - the other has no grain or banding at all - however i just don't have the energy to fight Samsung on this and play endless exchange game, and wish I'd just returned the phone to Google and gotten something else. For the record I have two dark bands - one vertical and one horizontal - crossing in the middle of the screen, in addition to a heavy dose of grain. Trinity wiped out all purple though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Screwhead24:
UMMM so how did she helped you with your issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
How does the screen look bad? Is it in the dark or one of those tests or in normal conditions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nmp591:
She actually saw that I wasn't out of warranty and deleted everything that was bs on the notes on my account. She set me up for another advanced replacement that nobody else would do

My screen only goes purple when set to the lowest brightness. Is that the normal "purple" behavior people are talking about? Otherwise there is a noticeable snap back into the greys around 5-10% brightness.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arcadia310:
Even if I could fix the colors (Which I doubt, they are so far off) there is an extreme amount of graininess to the screen. It's visible even on max brightness.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arcadia310:
Mine is purple even on max brightness. I've never seen a screen this bad in my entire life.

Hello,

So I am thinking about getting a G2. Thing is I love otterbox. They are so lovely. I have one on my 9900 right now (yea I know, its a blackberry.. flame me..)

I have found evidence (more evidence) of an ancient myth- that there was production of the otterbox for the G2/Desire Z. Problem is looks like they are a commodity right now. I found one on ebay (for $99- no thanks) and amazon has none in stock. I couldnt find any on craigslist. Any other ideas or successful vendors you G2's users have used (pun) ?

Or better yet, anyone want to sell me theirs?

Thx.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nospin:
Whoa, those prices are ridiculous. I am currently typing this on my Otterbox Commuter covered G2 and it is indeed awesome, unfortunately I won't be departing for a new device for quite some time...

Your best bet will definitely be getting one off of an owner who has or will be moving on soon. Best of luck good sir.
