[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ilogik:
I have been on the same ROM for the past month or so and whenever I tether I ping googles DNS servers 8.8.8.8 to see the latency, I've always gotten pings around 40ms 0% packet loss at my location but ever since tethering became "legal" the pings jump up as high as 500ms and are usually around 170ms with 5% packet loss.

I wonder if its because of so many more people started tethering and are taxing the network or if its verizon degregating the connection to "punish" us?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Do you think they can "see" the usage? How do they differentiate tethering usage vs. regular android usage? What sort of resources would they need, making these massive sweeps of their network, looking for.. I don't even know.

Your data speed connection is indicative of others here who report similar issues. Speeds were good for x amount of time, then, plummeted. Guy in Hawaii was doing 20 mb down and is now at 3 last I saw and myself started at 1700 kbps down and within a few days couldn't see anything higher than 400 kbps down.

I don't think we've begun to wrap our heads around what's going on...
[HTC ChaCha] DrZIZO:
Hi,

I have rooted my phone and installed titanium backup.

I do "integrate system apps updates" and i forgot that this is for s-off devices only.

So all system apps show "Force Close" message.

I made "Reset factory" several times, Install Recovery image , Fix permissions , then i deleted all system apps and downloaded apk files , installed again but nothing changed......... it show the FC error !!

Any help ? :(

thanks in advance
[Motorola Droid 3] Rotkaeqpchen:
After YEARS of asking and searching I did not give up the hope that some day there will be found a real (no, NOT NO LOCK!) solution how to turn off the Lockscreen.

Well, I found it and it's also pretty easy:

1. Download SQLite Editor (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&hl=de)

3. Select the app "Settings Storage" "com.motorola.android.providers.settings (not the other one!)

4. Select "settings.db"

5. Select "settings"

6. Longpress on value 64 named "screen_lock" select "Edit Field" and set it to value "0"

7. Reboot

Voila the Lockscreen is gone for ever! (It won't go away if you have security pattern activated!)

Hope this helped!
[Motorola Droid 3] ChaoticWeaponry:
Tried it, worked flawlessly, but I need my clock from the lock screen.. haha

To those who wonder what it does, it locks the screen, and acts like normal, but you no longer have to slide to unlock.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Ye I also need the clock :(
[Motorola Droid 3] Rotkaeqpchen:
Well, then you also need the Lockscreen. I have a clock widget. I really hated the lockscreen, ever since, on ALL devices I had. But now there's finally a solution.
[Motorola Droid 3] KayxGee1:
Worked perfectly!
[Motorola Droid 3] LaTropa64:
Just replying to this thread to remind myself that I took the steps outlined in the first post to disable the lock screen. Here's hoping it works out well... and leaving a trail to undo it if I need to.

So far, so good.

edit: make sure you long press on the 0/1 column of field 64. Don't edit the field name. That should be obvious.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] truciet:
So I came from the HTC One X to the S3 and it's been a great phone so far. However, the email font size is too big for me and the app isn't so great. So I have been using the stock ICS Email app for a few days now and it's been 100% stable.

If you want an awesome app with Microsoft Exchange, this is for you! I personally have 5 Microsoft Exchange accounts setup with zero issues.

I recommend not using the Gmail email app and just setup your Gmail via Microsoft Exchange and add it to the stock ICS Email app. But if your contacts are with Gmail, then maybe you shouldn't unless you know how to config it separately.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] outz:
are you having any issues with exchange meeting invites not displaying the meeting times? I get a accept/decline option but it doesn't display the date/time which is annoying. you can accept the invite and then check the date/time on the calendar. I'm currently running aokp for the att s3 which appears to use the default ics email client. thought I would ask before trying the one you posted.

I searched and it looks like a lot of nexus ics users also had this issue. a co-workers nexus running jb displays everything correctly.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] tgmorris:
Got this done so thanks! I did have some errors but after clearing the application data and setting up the account again it seems to have fixed things other than I show I have one message on the shortcut but nothing is there. Any ideas?

I'm going to let it cycle once by itself to see if it clears up on its own but I'm doubtful.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] truciet:
You mean badges? Stock ICS apps don't have badges :(

Thanks for reminding me. I edited the post.

Before you move forward, you must clear/remove all of your emails!

Messages you do not, but it wouldn't hurt. I don't though.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] crunk954:
Thanks....will try this later today
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] circuit.007:
So does the s3 tw motion control work with stock ics email and messaging apps? Like double tap to top and direct call?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] tgmorris:
I'm not sure what's putting it there but the icon is definitely getting updated with a message count - even when no messages are there. I used Desktop Visualizer to create a shortcut using a different icon (internet) and it still got the post count added to it. See the attached image for what I'm talking about.

Maybe I'll move the versions from my Nexus over the the S3 and see what happens.

ETA: It must be TW that's adding it because if I fire up Nova and add it the message count isn't there.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] truciet:
Make sure you have Exchange.apk, Exchange.odex, SecEmail.apk, and SecEmail.odex removed. Maybe it's an Exchange badge?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps  (US Carriers)] tgmorris:
I renamed them by adding a ".sav" to the filename so they shouldn't be impacting things. I'm thinking of updating my Nova launcher to the paid version to see if it behaves the same as TW since it supports badges too.

The only other issue, and I think I had this on my Nexus as well, is that sometimes when I open the app it shows "Loading" and stays there. A reload makes it work properly. Curious.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] lesonal:
That's a nice one dude
[Nexus 7 Accessories] c4v3man:
I'm hoping someone rips off Microsoft's Surface Touch Cover/keyboard. Would be a nice compromise. While it's not a great keyboard since it has no key travel, it will avoid taking up screen real estate which is a nice upgrade over an onscreen keyboard. Would make it far more useful in a pinch as a terminal server client/remote support tool.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] thekillingtree:
yes x100.

just tested my HP Touchpad bluetooth keyboard and it works great. no lag at all. just silly that the keyboard is bigger than the tablet. i could see it working great if you had to type stuff up on a plane or train or something. just need a case or something to prop the tablet up in landscape mode.

You could dd it from adb/terminal, or when Newsroom isn't on I could throw it into a flashable zip.

But really, if you're S-OFF, get an ENG HBOOT ;)

There is no reason not to trust it, it's all code that's been approved. Think of it like you would a CM nightly build.

You'll have to modify your SystemUI.apk. Not exactly sure how to do it, but you can easily find it with a quick google search.

However, there is a Jellybean rom that is completely stable in the Dev section that would upgrade you to Jellybean, and have a working Google Voice Search.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kman79:
Realistically,If you're a member of this forums, we account for a small percentage of Verizon's Customer User Base. We are not the casual phone users, we purchased an Android phone for it's open platform, and the ability to make it truly OUR Phone. I'm sure I am one of many on here who is upset about the locked Bootloader.

Here is what I'm proposing or asking GSIII users to do. I'm asking that you please write a sincere review of the phone on VZW website. I bought a 16GB Model, and it has 94+ Review with a 4.5 stars.

Now, mind you, it's a good phone out of the box, but you cannot deny that Verizon has neutered it by locking down the bootloader. I don't need to explain to many of you how much that limit's the phone capability and life span. Locking down the bootloader puts all the control in Verizon's hands. We are forced to wait months for new OS updates, bug fixes, and limits our ability to do what we really want to do with our phones. With a locked bootloader, a phone's lifespan is truly limited by not allowing it to take advantage of new Android OS as it becomes available. Locked bootloaders forces us to buy a a whole new phone that has the newest Android OS, when you're current phone is most likely able to handle it. Consider this, with an unlocked bootloader and with the great developers this community has, Android 4.1.1 ROMs would already be available for our phones. With locked Bootloaders, we will most likely have to wait 6 months or more to get 4.1.1 on these phones, if ever, and by then, the new Android OS would most likely only be a few months after that.

I'm not asking you to lie or make up stories, just be honest and share with the people who are not in the "know" how much Verizon is limiting it's customers by locking the bootloader.

Apologies for the poorly written post, thought about this post while I was working last night, and I just woke up, so I'm sure there are some grammar mistakes :D

[Galaxy S III Accessories] keekah:
Awesome. Let us know how they turn out. Any idea when you'll be getting them?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
It's not unique. SGP did it first with their Curved Crystal, which is the one I'm getting when it's eventually available at Amazon.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] keekah:
Well sgp's hasn't even came out yet so for now yes, it is unique AND it is first to sell it. Who is to say sgp didn't get the idea from Tridea?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Novarider:
I asked and they said 7-15 days. It shipped out today so I'm hoping next week.

That could be a month from now.

Why bash this company and say SGP was first? This company could have been first they are actually shipping now not just taking pre-orders. I first saw this protector on ebay around the same time the SGP was posted on here so who knows who was first?

I have no affiliation with them I'm just saying there is no point in saying it's not unique when they are the first company SHIPPING one so it actually is unique
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jubmasterflex:
Actually it was released within the last day or two....

http://www.spigen.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-screen-protector-steinheil-curved-crystal.html
[Galaxy S III Accessories] keekah:
It still says pre order available now, and that it ships in 1 to 2 weeks.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jubmasterflex:
Strange, before it said pre-order rather than add to cart

Might have been overwhelmed because of preorders, hence the long expected ship time. Either way I'd love to see a review on the Tridea, but SGP makes some high quality products, especially screen protectors.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ur2cool:
Also, it is available on Amazon. It's $11.99

Fwiw. The sgp dealer i ordered from told be they had issues with the first batch that came in and that they are going to have to cut a new match which might cause further dealay.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Novarider:
I got mine today and they were a little difficult to align properly but not bad. You have to press on the edges several times to get them to stick but if your persistent they will stay down. The clarity is pretty good. When the screen is off there are some weird looking sport that almost look like orange peel but they are smooth and you cannot feel them. When the screen is on you cannot see these spots at all. These are just my first thoughts. I will report back in a few days to see if the edges stay down.

Overall I am pretty happy with the protector. They are much better than the straight ones that don't stick to the edges.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] circuit.007:
Amazon no longer has this screen protector. I was just about to order it too.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
You might've seen a momentary Amazon stock hiccup, because I see that it's still in stock for $12. I have it "saved for later" as a 2nd choice while I await SGP's Curved Crystal.

with the sgp one's you get two pieces.
