Is wifi direct a hardware function or is it possible to implement it in software?

It's a hardware function, but our hardware does support it, it only lacks the software part.

ok i want to go back to stock for now. i used the spoof cid method to unlock. last time i tried to lock, and then unlock again.......i couldnt get it to unlock. so i was just going to run it stock. well when i got it booted, the phone would force close out of everything i did! even after a factory reset 3 times!! i ended up taking it in for a replacement. so anyways my question is.....what is the correct way to lock, and then unlock again? keeping in mind that i used the windows spoof cid method. thanks for any help.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Lock:

fastboot oem lock

Unlock:

When you relock your bootloader, you need to run an RUU in order to boot up again so be sure to have one handy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
if you used the "without HTCdev" method to unlock you have to do it all again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zounduser:
yes i ran the ruu after locking lastime. im just wondering y the force closes last time u know!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zounduser:
well im attempting this right now! again! i hope it goes ok! no force closes!!!! im selling my one x at 5:30 to a kid in town. do i need another phone to put on this current line? i know verizon can put it on a fake esn # ? anyone know? im switching to sprint evo 4g lte with unlimited data!!! only 79.00$ a month!!!!!!! anyways if someone can chime in on the having another phone to put on this current line i would appreciate it. thanks

I'm new, so excuse me if I haven't found the post to this question if it's already asked?

I've just downloaded: I9300XXBLFB_I9300OXABLFB_BTU.zip.torrent and have unzipped it to I9300XXBLFB_I9300OXABLFB_I9300XXLFB_HOME.tar.md5

I think I have to flash this via Odin? Right?

What version of Odin do I have to use therefor?

Does anyone know if this firmware will work with an unbranded device of the Galaxy S III used in Germany?

Thank you for reading and replying. May the force be with you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Odin 3.0.4, you find it on www.sammobile.com. This rom is for Germany for unbranded devices http://www.hotfile.com/dl/161535135/b148800/I9300XXALF6_I9300DBTALF4_DBT.zip.html.

Thanks a lot, I've just forgotten to have look at the SamMobile page. Yeah, and I got the Odin3 v3.04.

Do I need to do a wipe before or after I flash my device?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Go in recovery and do a data/factory reset and wipe cache. Then pull the battery and wait 15 seconds. Reinsert battery and go in downloadmode and flash the rom (.tar or md5) in the PDA section. Do not tick any option, only f.reset.time and autoreboot should be ticked.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Virage:
Right now, I'm using SD Android on my HTC HD2..

But it consumes more than 30% of battery power in standby mode for 5-6 hours...

and drains a lot when the screen is on..

1. I'm wondering that how much battery saving will do if I change it into NAND Android?

2. Should it consumes less power and stable like original Windows Mobile 6.5?

thank you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
You won't get battery drain which will match WinMo if you use Android, but you certainly shouldn't get such high drain either. Turn off all connections, use JuiceDefender and SetCPU to minimise drain and install current widget to get a better reading. It should be around 7-8ma for an SD build. For me, that amounts to 1% an hour. Also, NAND has better battery life and performance, but bear in mind you won't have WinMo (although in all honesty I doubt this would make a difference ;) )

Sent from my NexusHD2
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Virage:
thanks a lot for your response..

7-8mA for all connections are off?

how about when data connection is on?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Sorry I got that wrong, 7-8 is with connections ON. Connections off should really be at the very most 4Ma. My bad.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Virage:
I tried to turn on the data connection and wifi, it consumes 10-20mA..

how bout that?

is it normal?

thank you
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
No that's far too high. Which ROM are you using? Have you used SetCPU and JuiceDefender as I suggested? Also try killing all apps before turning your screen off.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Virage:
I'm using nightly ROM, is it not compatible with my HD2?

yes, I installed JuiceDefender.. that's why when wi-fi is on, it consumes less power..

I'll try to install NAND Android, but I'm afraid...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rawdaddymagraden:
That from is defifitely compatible... I say don't be afraid to install band android it is very easy to just flash a wmo from and go back to stock. I had to do it three days ago to return my phone for insurance ( I cracked the glass screen) and it took me all of 5 minutes to go from nand android to completely stock. I suggest using the hd2 toolkit it does all the work for you :)

[Galaxy S III Accessories] erikk:
I asked this in the general accessories forum and got no response so I'm wondering if maybe an S3 owner specifically knows anything about this.

Is there any really high quality conference speakerphone for cell phones (ideally bluetooth but at a minimum allow corded connections) that has a battery option? The Polycom VoiceStation 500 is basically exactly what I'm looking for but it has no battery option.

http://www.polycom.com/products/voi...nce_phones/voice_station/voicestation500.html

http://www.amazon.com/Polycom-Voice...5096&sr=8-1&keywords=polycom+voicestation+500

I've been finding myself more and more frequently in business meetings where we have to conference in someone else and then the speakerphone on my cellphone really isn't capable enough to hand 5-10 people sitting around a table without everyone leaning in over the table to speak or passing around the phone. These are often onsite meetings so standard conference room facilities aren't available.

I've tried to google it but the plethora of bluetooth car speakerphones clog the results to the point that I've had very poor luck finding any quality information. The car bluetooth speakerphones don't appear to work well in conference environments as they're designed for much closer range (or at least that's what it seems from the again limited information I've found). So I'd appreciate anyone with any firsthand experience in the subject or if you know of any reviews/sites/etc that are specific to this issue. TIA
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LowSky:
Why not use a laptop and something like google voice? Laptops usually have better speakers and mics.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] erikk:
because most of the time we're places without wifi. When I say onsite a lot of times I'm talking about like construction sites (not looking for something that can be used over construction noises, not expecting that).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
There is a way to make everything smaller. There is a build.prop file. If you open it You should be able to find line like lcddensity (just look for lcd or density). Default is 240 but if You make it smaller everything will be smaller. Also You can have more icons on Your laincher when You're using better launcher. I'm using adw launcher ex and it has this option. Also the sms bubble thing. Take a look for "go sms pro" on android market. It has plenty of options
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
Thanks for the pointers. So i need a different launcher, and the sms/email apps to solve my other problems. Great.

As for the "build.prop" file. Is that something that I will have to use the sdk and like rebuild the OS (basically, "root" the phone)?

Thanks

J"SD"a'RR
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
Yeah root is required. If You have that You can just open it as normal *.txt file. Root Explorer is best for doing it :-P
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moxlon69:
root would be required, but in most cases, you don't have to start from scratch to gain root, only if you flash a new or custom rom, so, no rebuilding the OS in most cases. the build.prop tweaks and custom launchers are a great start, but you might want to research the custom recovery for your device, so that you can make a nandroid backup, and restore in the event that you change something that causes issues that you can't fix..it's a good precaiution at any rate if you plan on doing a lot of poking around.,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
yea, great. this is effing priceless. So I root the phone. I get a build.prop editor, I change the lcd density so I can get more info on screen and what happens. TouchWiz has stopped working.

Home doesn't work, nothing works. the phone is as useless as a paperclip as a paperweight. even better, the kies install still works only a 3rd the time (at best) so plugging it in via usb i can't even access the device. There appears to be no key combo command to tell the thing to use its internal flash recovery to restore factory defaults, and I can't access the build.prop file from my computer in order to change the file back to its original settings.

very helpful, i must say, winmo6.5 may have sucked, but it worked. this android crap really is NOT user friendly.

As a programmer I believe in "ultimate user customization". and yet I either have to suffer under google bird brained ideas of how things will work, or have a different phone. the very fact that I cannot just RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULT. albiet that woudl suck too, but so far it's all about this ODIN crap. why isn't the factory ROM on the phone itself? all i did was root it and edit one file. if that breaks android so easily, it really needs to be taken back to the drawing board.

[EDIT]

And now I've found the way to get to the factory restore...but it doesn't effing restore. cause I'm still getting the same error after the restore. at least my POS HTC tP2 when i RESTORED it, it flashed EVERYTHING back to factory defaults, including the system files I changed. I now have a brand new SIII that is worthless.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Have a bit of patience with yourself mate. I too came from WM (Touch Diamond, Touch HD and then a HD2) and I'm a Windows developer by profession, so Android was completely alien to me. The Linux crowd are sorted but we've got a steep learning curve ahead of us :)

All you've told us about your current problem is that "nothing works". Can you tell us what actually happens when you turn the phone on? Is it booting okay and getting to where you'd expect to see a home screen?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
How much did You change the value? Some of the apps(very few) don't support even a small change, and if You changed it like about 30+ then launchers may have problems.(in this case it has). You can copy files from & to phone using adb commands, even when You can't do anything. You can install e.g. ADW Launcher (program in my description does that) that should work and would bring Your phone back to life. There is also other way to repair it, but I hope You made a backup (this is "must to do" thing if You change sth. in ROM, especially when somebody is a noob and doesn't know a way how to repair it) , or just a backup of build.prop (50% chances that it will work).

Making factory reset won't help. Samsung Kies was always a crappy thing and never worked. Try odin to reflash ROM (if You didn't make a backup). And one important thing. Is it a custom ROM, do You have flashable package somewhere on the pc or phone? If so don't use ODIN yet. And send me this ROM. (is this *.zip file, not *.img?) There is a chance to restore build.prop.

PS. I understand You have usb debugging enabled?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
After i changed the lcd_density, it rebooted and came to my lock screen. everything was smaller as I hoped, so i began punching in my PIN. then a small dialog popped up saying TouchWiz UI had stopped. I hit okay, and figured the lcd density I had chosen must be incompatible. So I pressed OK, figuring I would jump back in and change it back. I typed in the PIN and hit OK. My home screen background game up, but the bottom App row (5 icons) wasn't there. another dialog about the TouchWiz UI popped up. I pressed OK. Then a dialog saying System UI had failed. after 4 or 5 dialogs I could no longer press the OK button, like it either wouldn't recognize my touch or was "disabled" or something. so I tried to reboot the phone (holding the power button in to get to the reboot menu). It rebooted with the exact same behavior. Knowing that the phone was rooted I let it reboot, and tried plugging it back into my PC.

Now, even before I did all the advanced changes, when plugged into the computer, the SPH-L710 node in explorer only comes up a quarter of the time, so now, i plugged in and unplugged until the node appeared to allow me to explore the phone, figuring it is "rooted" now so I should be able to get to the build.prop file some how and change it. No such luck.

I played with the button presses hoping to find some soft-key combination that would "restore factory defaults". Took some intuitive leaps, and remembered power+VolDn+home lead me to download mode. and that when rebooting the guide had told me to use power+volup+home to get to "recovery". so I tried that, which lead me to the "Stock Recovery Mode" screen. (rather different than the ClockworkMod Recovery I used to root the device).

At this point I selected the third option, "wipe data/restore factory settings". (yes, I had backed up the device before i performed all this so I'm not "worried" just annoyed). the phone when through the process and claimed the restore was complete so in the menu I selected to reboot and it popped back up asking all the same initial questions it had when it was first turned on. thinking "yea" i'd solved the issue, it booted in asking for my name and yadda, yadda, yadda, when suddenly the SAME TouchWiz UI error pops up. again. skipping over the initial configuration stuff, it got to the psuedo lock screen, saying slide to unlock, and i see 4 icons at the bottom (not 5) and again the TouchWiz UI and System UI errors pop up repeatedly. I can't select any of the icons at the bottom, and I am now without a phone untill I can simply alter 3 characters in a text file, which I can't get to.

I get the learning curve and all, but if this build.prop file is so critical, factory reset should reset it too. it apparently does not, and so until i can somehow alter that file to set the lcd density back to 320 i'm screwed.

J"SD"a'RR
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
well first step is finding ADB. I downloaded the SDK but couldn't find adb anywhere in the sdk tree. once I do find it, using it will be amusing to say the least.

Of course i backed up the phone with my data. But unless I get it to boot in the standard home screen with the applications I can't restore the data.

what purpose would this serve. the build.prop editor I used made a backup, but again untill i can get into the phone I can't restore this backup.

which in mymind (as a developer) this is a bad design. any 'breaking' change should be repairable by a factory reset.

needed it for the usb drivers, that's all.

not custom rom or anything. I've had the phone for a week and was finally getting tired of not having certain things the way I wanted them. so I'd figured I'd dig around. I found many tutorials on the rooting of this phone and since they were all very similar I went with this one:

How to Root SPHL710

that part wen off just fine. seemed there was nothing for me to worry about. there was no ROM or crazy changes, just wanted to give myself root access. I then wanted to change LCD density, so I tried it and here I am.

it wasn't essential for what I was doing at the time. ODIN worked for the root process. *shrug* can't change it now, so I hope it isn't necessary.

J"SD"a''
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
So I see that You made a backup with some app (Titanium Backup?), not CWM or (whatever You have) recovery. That's crappy. (My bad, I could have told You about that)

Enabling usb debugging now is impossible so I think, all that's left to reflash with Odin. All the hope was in adb controlling, which REQUIRES usb debugging.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaedenRuiner:
yea, I pretty much made that call yesterday, as all the ADB struff I tried didn't work. (but it was worth while for the learning process). I flashed with stock rom, and now i'm up and running. (guess I won't be messing with that setting again. :P) as it is, i'm trying different launchers which has some of the features I want, and then I'll keep looking for different email/sms apps that shrink the info. (seriously on this size/res of screen, only seeing 8 emails is pathetic).

basically now trying the Apex Launcher, and then I'll do the ADW launcher. which ever is more to my liking i'll go pro. then handcent or gosms, k9 or others, or perhaps i'll even start writing my own clients that include font setting micro, :D.

thanks though, at least my first attempt to alter the phone is no different than my first attempt to write a program.

Cheers,

Jaeden "Sifo Dyas" al'Reac Ruiner
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
I'm glad to hear that :) Before messing with the system ALWAYS make a CWM backup, not some app backup (like titanuim backup).

PS. I use ADW Launcher EX. It's the best for me. Tried other but this one is the best.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Had my SGS3 for a while now and it's a true beast of a device, the connectivity alone makes it worth the money let alone the quad core cpu, the rom's that have come along have been great too.

However the issue i've got is the scrolling wallpaper, the way it snaps back when you roll over the last screen and it adjusts the wallpaper back to the other side.

It looks ugly to put it plainly, is there any way to disable the endless loop ? So that when you get to your first or last screen, then they are the edge's and it won't loop over to the opposite side?

Or is there a way to make the wallpaper slide back to the opposite side instead of just flicking from one to the other, it's the only thing that bugs me about the entire system.

I know there isn't any native way to do this besides disabling wallpaper scrolling, that's not what i want to do, i like wallpaper scrolling, i just don't like the way it adjusts with opposite screens.

Hope this makes sense. :)

Cheers.
