[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] eng3:
I guess I'll find out if I REALLY keep my unlimited when I get my phone but I don't really care THAT much. I only use about 500-1000MB a month. Technically, I should just use letstalk.com and save my self $150 but oh well.

My friend, got the SG3, used it for three days and had pains in her pinky finger and wanted to change it. Called three times and was told that there is no way she can keep her unlimited.

I guess it just depends on who you get, but its obviously possible to do it in the computer system.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] zackiv31:
I just bought the GS3 as Verizon seems to have an upgrade loophole for some of us right now...

Do I have to open my GS3 and activate it before I can sell it? I'm seeing varying information online about this. I don't want to sell the GS3 on ebay and have a buyer unable to activate it. If it matters, I ordered the GS3 with a new SIM card.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] nitsuj17:
im not exactly sure the proper way to do it....i "think" you can take it into verizon and exchange it w/o using it...but not sure
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] zackiv31:
Well I don't want to bring it to Verizon, I just want to sell it on eBay/craigslist to make up for the full retail price I already paid for my Inc4g.

In gallery I have many albums from picasa, how can I sort it by the date just like I see it on computer?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] LordGeek:
I'm still trying to figure out how to get rid of it out if my gallery !!

When I first signed in to my phone, assigning my Google account.. I disabled everything from sync except Contacts, Calendar and Gmail.. but for some f*ck'd up reason.. my Google galleries are all in my gallery app ??????

Ya i deleted my google account and they went away. Then I re-added my google account without syncing Picasa and google photos.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] djnoicatse:
Settings/accounts and sync/select Google and uncheck Google photos and picasa web, After go to application manager (settings) select the "ALL" tab, scroll down till you see gallery and clear data and force stop. Reboot phone and all that should be left in your gallery are your camera pictures and anything that you may have dragged and dropped from your computer or downloaded from your phone!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] smashcz:
I guess it's not possible on this phone to see it by date (not by each pic time/date)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dasistsparta:
this poll regards DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT ONLY.

I would like to know whether you feel happy or not with the development support your device got. (compare it to the international gs2 deving, or the att gs2 if that helps to make things easier) Do not read this poll as something that intends to start a flaming war. I am little bit confused which version of the gs3 to keep for myself and since I have not followed what was going on with the tmobile gs2 and the intl gs2 dev forums, I decided to make this thread asking your sincere (hopefully) opinions:) again vote on the basis of dev support only!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jim93:
great trolling poll. voted :good:

love the loaded phrasing in the options.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dasistsparta:
Why is that? What didnt u like?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
Why do you want to know? Is this a scientific experiment?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dasistsparta:
I edited the op. that should answer your question. and no lol I am not a scientist :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
It's up for debate. GS3 hardware is supposed to be standard across all carriers. You shouldn't have a problem. Imo if you want the best value and best data speeds go with tmobile.

I'm unsure what the specs for the international is but I believe they're all the same.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dasistsparta:
sorry for the confusion. maybe I did not explain myself right. I want an opinion about the dev support only. the specs are something the users know before buying the device. the dev support is something they find out later on once they have bought the device lol and sometimes they are happy but other times they are not. from what I can see you guys had some great devs!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
Very happy. We have several great devs, TDJ, and Whitehawkx to name a few. Plus some great themers, foreverloco, and pheonix!! No gripes here!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
I was completely let down by the misleading topic.

I'd go with pretty dang happy I guess...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LostInTheMuzik:
Happy just wish there was a more stable aosp aokp rom getting tired of touchwiz
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jim93:
The problem is you cant predict that for the GS3 since they are standard across carriers but international is still international. The s2 support isnt comparable because its a totally different fragmentation situation
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dasistsparta:
Unfortunately they are not standard. And yeah intl will always get the best development but nevertheless at the end all you need is 5 good roms. Intl got 20 roms or more but users know that half of them are just a minor modified version of the stock rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jim93:
They are closer than the s2. Its a personal choice, it seems you already know intl-> more devs. Carrier -> more compatible with your network. Nobody can decide for you what to value more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Tnallen:
+1 word for word. Anyways I think they're close enough to share development with minor porting. Plus I keep track of t989 development not intl because that's what I have ;) to answer your question I am happy, even if there were a couple devs it'd make me smile. Appreciate all their work :)

[HTC One X] Imeian:
Hi all,

I saw some great stuff to wake phone swyping directly on the screen, like PGM on play store (for Evo 3D and Galaxy Nexus), and was wondering if would be possible to have it for my One X.

I was using Faux kernel including S2W, and really liked it, but I think it would be better/easier/more useful if we can wake touching the screen, not the 3 buttons.

Also, for exemple in Nova Launcher, there is the option to launch an app making other gestures than swype, like pinch or rotate. Do you think it would be possible to wake the phone just pinchin screen when off ? What about battery drain ? Lot of users had complaints about S2W draining the battery, but I didn't noticed a big difference with or without this feature.

Do you think a feature like this would be useful ? Technically, is it realistic ?

Sorry for poor english :silly:
[HTC One X] Imeian:
nobody has any idea or interest in such feature? I think it would be great to have the possibility to pinch the screen to wake it, so easier than swiping over the buttons, and with less fails. And I don't think that kind of gesture could be easily done while phone is in the pocket.
[HTC One X] DanRZ:
Hello, great idea but not so "feasible" easilly ... imo

How do you swype on a screen which is not activated ?

You will let the screen always activated ? I don't think the battery will appreciate.

Maybe you can activate the touch screen without the display screen

but that should surely need a kernel modification if it's not "hardware" locked.

The only app i see that make something very similar is Tap Tap Tap

and it uses the proximity sensor ...

[YOUTUBE]6s1OoC9PGaM[/YOUTUBE]

PS : I never achieved to make Tap Tap Tap work correctly each time i Tap Tap
[HTC One X] Imeian:
Yes, kernel modification should be needed, the Evo 3D app PGM is a kernel module. I emailed the developer, who explained that he logically can't develop apps for devices that he hasn't got. But if it works in Evo 3D and Galaxy Nexus, it surely can be developed for One X.

His app does not seems to drain too much battery. Anyway, if it is possible to make it using 2-fingers gestures like pinch or rotate, maybe it should be possible too to only activate the screen when there is this double contact. I don't really understand about development, but had read something like S2W was not draining battery because of activation only when the 2nd button was touched.

Tap Tap is not compatible with ICS 4.0.4, can't try it... :(

But many comments say that it drains battery a lot, and can easily wake screen when in pocket, so it's more like an option you punctually use I think.
[HTC One X] Imeian:
Well, only 10 votes, but 60% love the idea.

Would be a great feature included in future ViperX 2.0 rom :rolleyes:

[Nexus 7 Accessories] jtc276:
Basically, this thread is going to be a list of necessary and optional accessories someone might want for their Nexus 7. It can act as a guide for new Nexus 7 owners in the future and, of course, all of us right now.

http://www.amazon.com/Aftermarket-P...11&sr=8-17&keywords=micro+usb+otg+card+reader

I am tempted to get this and just strip it down and attach it to the back of the tablet. Storage problems solved!!! (To some extent.)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Logan_M:
Will that really work? If it does I'm buying it for sure, I could store a ton of my ripped DVD's in good quality that way.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] hullbay:
Bro, for screen protectors I wouldn't go with anything other than an XOSkin. I've had one on my Nexus since it was unboxed the first day and wouldn't recommend anything else.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] hullbay:

[Nexus 7 Accessories] lin013190:
What warrants.. XO protector for 20 bucks... I can get like 3 of them on ebay for 5 bucks :|
[Nexus 7 Accessories] bpye:
An accessory by definition is not necessary.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] slack04:
Wet application vs dry application. Lifetime warranty (and they're good for it). If you've never used a wet application screen protector it would be hard to understand. Of all the advantages, the most important is that you can position it perfectly because it slides until it dries. Also, they don't scratch (drag a key across the 3 for $5 screen protector; you'll get a scratch on the plastic; not so on a wet-apply protector). And if you get dust or a hair under the protector during the application you can get it out; if you don't you won't be able to see it anyways (no bubbles). Oh, last thing: they don't peel at the corners or turn yellow. It's pretty much night and day. Take my word, I though the same way you did until I got one on a sale. Never going back...

BTW- I've never used XO protectors, but I'm tempted to jump since it appears they're the only ones with the nexus7 already. Had nothing but good experiences with clearprotector (and you can always get 50% off with coupon "iwantultra") but they don't have the nexus yet and I want it waiting for me when my tablet arrives....
[Nexus 7 Accessories] jtc276:
Yes, by definition. But people who don't use accessories like cases and screen protectors usually end up damaging their devices, so, in my opinion, that makes them necessary. Things like USB-OTG and styli are just there for the people who want to use them. Either way, I feel that this can be a helpful thread for everyone, especially if it gets stickied.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] bpye:
Fair enough ( Though my phone has survived without either and only has a minor dent in the back :) )
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Salty Wagyu:
What about tablet stands, bluetooth keyboards and UK links? :)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] jtc276:
Whatever you post links to will be added to the OP :)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] MWBehr:
I've used good wet and dry protectors. Wet is basically like you say, but they never feel right to me. I just don't care for the "rubbery" feel. A good dry acrylic protector feels identical to the screen itself, and only has one drawback aside from a bit more work; they do scratch a little. Even that really isn't a big deal (to me) as the scratches are very light and "disappear" when the backlight is on.

Good dry acrylics (like Clarivue for example) don't yellow or peel. Also, while you do need to take a good amount of time and care to make sure no dust or hairs end up under the protector while you're applying it (you can always lift it back up to remove dust or hairs if they do get trapped), once it's done you'll never have to mess with it again.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] kharnage:
Did anyone here who already has a Nexus 7 try the PU Leather Folio Stand Case? I'm planning on purchasing it. Does the screen automatically shut off when the flap is completely covering it?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] MWBehr:
I can pretty much guarantee it will not. The Nexus 7 doesn't have magnetic sensors, so the only method of screen on/off would be a proximity sensor, which I also don't believe it has.

I also question whether it's truly made for the Nexus 7 or not. There's a bunch of Kindle Fire or similar 7" tablet cases floating around that have been re-branded as "Nexus 7" cases. My recommendation is to wait until you can find a Nexus 7 case on an official manufacturer's website and purchase it there.

Awesome! I was holding out on purchasing it myself because of the wait, but now I'll certainly be buying it. I'll replace my link with your link.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] kharnage:
I just bought the case from the above link. I'm still looking for cheap screen protectors (hopefully that come in packs). I don't know if I should purchase it from Hong Kong because that is going to take a while. What do you guys think? I'm hoping to purchase it tonight.

*Does the Nexus 7 come with an already applied "screen protector" film?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] alexjzim:
the xo skins screen protector has a cut out for a proximity sensor, slightly to the right of the camera
[Nexus 7 Accessories] MWBehr:
Well I suppose it's probably being used for backlight adjustment for light conditions. Either way, It's quite unlikely that the tablet will be set up to have the device wake up when the proximity sensor is uncovered as this feature has never existed on any android device to my knowledge.

Hope it helps someone.
