[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
Mine will be here tomorrow too and I even have a rep calling me to make sure I have no issues with my current unlimited data plan.

If I lose unlimited...all hell will indeed break loose. :mad:

Most important thing to realize is people have most likely received this notification if they ordered after 6/28/12.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Div033:
I got mine today... I still have unlimited.

I mean, I even logged into My Verizon and it shows unlimited. No idea what the deal is here. I pre-ordered mine in store and the reps confirmed with me that I would keep my unlimited data.

This "news" story seems hokey.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] faulkton:
Sure Verizon might take away your unlimited data but it's not like they didnt compensate you for it... they gave you a locked boot loader for FREE!!!@!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbeelzebub:
BGR = Bull**** Generated Regularly

I kept my unlimited data, so I'm sure others are too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] e36eury:
Response from VZW when I asked.

I just asked them via the chat on their site, I was told that I get to keep unlimited, but only because I purchased it unsubsidized. Seeing how I use 10gb or so a month, I guess I'll keep buying them unsubsidized since it saves a huge amount of money per month to do so.

Doesn't look good for guys signing a new contract, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Kipland007:
Has anyone who signed a new 2 year contract activated yet? Results?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
i preordered on 6/6, renewed a 2yr contract, recieved my phone today, and kept unlimited data ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goclimbarock14:
When I pre-ordered my GS3 the customer service rep told me I would still be able to keep my unlimited data plan however if any bills are paid late or if the credit card wont go through on the order or if they have any other problems with my account prior to shipment of the phone, then the phone order will be canceled and I may not be able to keep the unlimited data. My gut tells me the person in the article had a billing issue and Verizon used that as an opportunity to yank the unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nunyabiziz:
E36eury is correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] antispiral:
Just activated my s3 today and still have unlimited..i preordered on the 27th lol

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jrc27:
I got my phone on friday and i still have unlimited data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stumanroo:
Ironically I found a post on BBY that flat out stated that if we Pre-Ordered through them before the 28th they would be able to honor the Unlimited data as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bc760:
Got my S3 today and changed my calling plan, moved the device since I added a line to get it and I've retained my Unlimited data. It depends who you talk to because the first CSR I dealt with was telling me I was going tl lose it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Tbenson:
Activated mine a few hours ago and both mobile app and web site show unlimited data still. I ordered mine on June 15th. Can't wait for a bootloader unlock and some CM goodness, in due time :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] s3xda:
For those who bought the phone on contract, the unlimited data plan will expire when the two yrs are up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tlp5002:
I was told the same thing.

FWIW: I pre-ordered the GIII on June 6 and it arrived 7/6. Re-upped a new 2-year contract and still have unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tonu42:
Ditto, reps are calling me day after tomorrow to make sure I got unlimited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cell128:
I'm good :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stupidchicken03:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bmcgoo45:
Lost mine, got it back

I preordered on June 10th thru a local retailer, when i picked it up at the retialer (not verizon store) on the 6th i'd lost my unlimited data. Believe me i went thru the roof at the retailer. I was there almost 3 hours while they tried calling people at verizon to get it changed, with no luck. The best they could offer is that they would submit a request to add it back and it would take 7-10 days but getting it added back wasn't assured. On Monday i just decided to call verizon customer service myself and they got it back for me within 30 seconds, no problem at all.

From what i can tell, at this retailer anyway when the phone is received they basically killed the contract i signed on June 10th and were going to create another but their system wouldn't let them add back the unlimited data.

Anyway, if you run into the same situation at a retailer i don't think you should sweat it as the front line customer service seem to be able to add it back with relative ease.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techno_hippyGuy:
I disabled myvzw already, but after activation I did retain unlimited data. So unless they changed it since, should still have it. Preordered June 7th. Received on friday.

Can you explain me the way of doing it or can you make me a zip.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sujal:
If you can find the zip somewhere of the stock bootanimation, then just rename it to 'bootanimation.zip', go to the root of your sd card and in there put it inside the 'media' folder. It would work with any boot animation, you only have to rename it.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] DeathKoil:
Just wondering if I'm alone with this issue... when I have auto brightness turned on, it consistently wants the display to be too dark. I shut off auto-brightness and move the slider back and forth, and it appears that auto-brightness never wants the phone over 25% brightness, ever.

When I set manual brightness the phone is plenty bright enough to see, even in direct sunlight. But auto-brightness never seems to leave the screen bright enough. Is this common or does my unit have a faulty light sensor?

DK
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] id_twin:
Yes, this is a problem with all versions, including international. There is a MOD out on the international side that addresses this issue by setting the minimums to a much higher brightness. Unfortunately, we have yet to get any devs on our side to begin porting these over. Hopefully soon...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Dave the Knave:
I actually don't experience this at all on my phone. At home, I have it set manually to the dimmest it will go. But at work, I will change it to auto brightness, and when moving from indoors to outdoors I can see the screen just fine (even with sunglasses on).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] bigdbag:
I just installed Lux

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS52aXRvLmx1eC5mcmVlIl0.

Seems to have fixed all my auto-brightness issues. Shame we have to use a third-party app to get auto-brightness to work flawlessly, but it's better than nothing. Plus the Lux app has additional features that I'm glad to have.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] DeathKoil:
i also installed Lux, and set it to have the screen at 40% brightness at 0 Lux (default was 20% IIRC), and the screen has been at the correct brightness since.

My guess would be that the default settings in Lux are fine for most people. I do like my screen to be bright most of the time, hence the higher custom setting I put into Lux.

DK
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zeesubalpha:
i don't know about all of you, but my screen is the biggest drain on my battery. my guess is the low auto settings is an effort to preserve battery life.

like someone said earlier, i never have an issue seeing the screen inside. only in direct sunlight does it make a noticeable difference. fortunately i have an auto-brightness toggle widget thanks to hd widgets :cool:

Okay so I'm trying to root my phone so I can delete all the annoying bloatware. I can't use the Revolutionary root because I have the higher HBOOT that they don't support yet (1.45.0013). I then tried to root my phone using HTCDev. I had no problems until I get to Step 11 where it wants me to send the "Unlock_code.bin" file to my phone. And when I try and sending it using the "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" command it just gets stuck on sending. I now tried using the "All in one kit" to root my phone and I get stuck on the same step.

Here's what the log shows.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
You can find a bunch of them by downloading an app called Zedge from the play store. Once downloaded, just search iphone ring tones, find the one you want, and use the arrow button within the app to download it to the phone. Once downloaded, you'll find it in your system tones when you go into sounds and try to change your ring tones

I saw that the new CleanROM was using the Aroma installer for both versions of the ROM, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I don't have any experience with Aroma, but it all seemed to be working at first. However, I guess the file may have been corrupt because it just stuck at "Installing ROM" and never finished.. I hit the next button and it said it was finished even though I never got a status update. Stuck at HTC load screen, and will NOT boot into recovery even from the bootloader.

Since I can still load the bootloader, but not recovery, I still have some hope, right?

All I should have to do is run the AT&T RUU, right?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkungfupanda:
So let me summarize what i have done so far. I have a samsung captivate. THe power button has stopped functioning and am out of warranty and stuff. Last week I thought I would root my phone and flash a Rom. But unfortunately I needed the power button to navigate through the recovery menu. So I looked at a lot of forums for ways around it, but nothing worked. I tried cwm too but that dint work either. Eventually I reset my phones to factory setting and formatted everything. But sadly, not my phone keeps restarting every 5 seconds or so unless its plugged in a charger. I tried resetting multiple times and tried looking online for solutions, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be highly appreciated it. And on a side note, will it be possible to flash a custom Rom with my power button not working?

Thanks a lot in advance
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Buy or make yourself a jig - that will get you into download mode, and you can flash a kernel with CWM baked in. You can get to recovery mode via ADB if you need to (command is ADB REBOOT RECOVERY), and once you're there, quite a few of the versions of CWM will allow up/down with the menu/home keys and selection with the search key.

As for your power button, if you haven't tried cleaning it, look around the forum - there are some options for trying to get it cleaned and working that way first. If that doesn't do it, the member connexion2005 (Josh at mobiletechvideos.com) offers a power button replacement service (as far as I know) for a nominal fee.

Also when i tried going into adb shell it said system/bin/sh not found. So i went into my root explrorer and checked out system/bin. The sh and bootloader files were not there. I am not sure if they are supposed to be there or not. If they are missing. How do I get them back?

adb reboot bootloader - phone restarts

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to flash a custom recovery-the cmd promt jus says waiting for device and doesnt do anything

Sounds like you killed your system partition with the reformat. Try putting it into download mode and then using a one-click Odin package to flash your phone back to life. You're going to have an issue with flashing things through CWM without a power button.
