[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fcortes626:
has anyone tried it on the tmobile s3? what command did you use. i bought the allsharecast media hub and running jellybean leak so it connects to the hub but like 5 seconds later it disconnects. i searched and found a thread that said you have to reset the flash counter. same thing for samsung media hub. the rom i flashed came pre installed with triangle away but every time i reset it and reboot it stays at 1. i checked the box that says reset at boot but it still wont connect.

so i saw a guy here that said it worked for tmo version but i dont want to brick my s3 for the 3rd time so i want to make sure if the exactly same command was used.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bwarner479:
I don't believe the flash counter is tripped unless you flash using ODIN. Flashing in a custom recovery shouldn't effect the flash counter, at least that's always been my understanding. As long as your root method didn't involve ODIN you should be at 0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rampantandroid:
EDIT: Problem solved: Triangle Away and the command in post #1 DO NOT WORK on Liquidsmooth RC5. They DO work on ParanoidAndroid, which I happened to have on my SD card.

-------

Hi all,

Triangle away crashes on setting the value, and this command does not work. I disparately need this back to stock so I can get it replaced. What on earth do I do?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] affenzeit:
So if I use ODIN to flash back to stock, am I screwed? I've only used ODIN this one time to flash stock. My screen is bad and I need to send it to Plano for warranty repair, so I can't check the flash counter on the phone and since it was flashed to factory, adb isn't enabled.

Flashing to stock with Odin has worked fine for me. Just finished doing it. Follow this:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Defiant81:
Hey all I have two questions

1

So I recently bought a hd movie from the playstore which I'm able to watch in HD on my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7.. However when I tried to watch it on my computer (through the playstore website) I noticed it would only display at 480p..

Does anyone know if you can watch HD movies from the playstore on your computer? Or is it just HD on android devices..?

2

What resolution should I change movies off itunes and amazon mp4's to to work the best on the Nexus 7

I know the screen is 1280 X 800.. do I want to use that resolution for the actual movies?

Sorry I didn't know which forum to post this

Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiffer1991:
To question 1

do u have a hd screen on ur computer and the correct drivers installed?

To question 2

check out wether your device´s display supoorts hd ready or fullhd resolution

if its hd ready chose 1280*720p

thats what i´m using and its loking dreat on sgs+ super amoled hd ready display
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Defiant81:
1. yes its a brand new computer :). I can watch hd stuff on youtube or anything hd from netflix. Apparently it seems you cannot stream in HD from the Google Play store to your computer.. I just am looking for some confirmation

2. I'll try those settings

thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfrey:
Did anyone ever get confirmation of this? I am really curious. I am also thinking about buying a chromebook, but only if it can play movies from google play in HD.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tmfz:
Sorry for bumping a somewhat old thread but just wanted to add that I'm also only able to watch HD movies purchased from the play store in 480p on my PC. I can otherwise watch them just fine in HD on my android device. Pretty dumb imo.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Typing this on my keyboard dock, with mousepad disabled.

They keys work very well and I have no complaints about it o far.

But the mousepad - oh my.

At first it was too fast, managed to sort that out in settings. All well.

I don't completely understand difference between mouse pointer and gesture thing. Is it only a graphical representation that is different, or should it behave differently? Also, the navigation is very cumbersome. For example, I don't get how exactly am i supposed to flick through my launcher screens....

But the most annoying thing, and that is why i turned it off - it keeps pressing left button when i use mousepad. I am not even touching the part where the left/right mouse buttons are. Also, in settings, it says right an middle button.What's with that.

Yup, new to tablets, new to peripherals for Android.

Does anyone else have problems with the keyboard, musepad... Please share and please help me understand keyboard/mousepad so I could use it in full potential. Cause right now, only typing is a dealio for me - and charging of course, which is working fine.

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
I have never even heard of a TF user actually using that touchpad thingy. I have it disabled as well, as it constantly places my cursor mid-text, and therefore causes me to add the new and most recent part of my last sentence mid-sentence somewhere higher up in the text. Really frustrating.

So, in short: no, you're not alone, and I don't think *anyone* has found a wy to get it to work like it should, except for those that can bear keeping their fingers in quite an unnatural position hovering somewhere above the keys waiting to be used. Bah. With the touchpad disabled, hwever, I feel it's OK, save for too much typos to my liking causing me to drop typing speed (either preventatively or by necessitating correction). I'm really looking forward to SwiftKey support for this keyboard!
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Have you noticed more lags in UI while using touchpad? I've described it in another thread (same with USB mouse)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Crizthakidd:
question about the track pad, the only reason i was going to buy it was because it was said it fixes touch issues. are ur touhces accurate and swift ? also how fast can you type, do word documents keep up with you
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Keyboard (keys) are not problematic at all. Tried with KingsOffice, Google Docs...All well there.

Only mousepad/touchpad is the one that makes me wanna cry. I do have USB mouse, so i'll try it.

Regarding the lags ... with dock connected, no, i don't think there is any lag. I will test it with mouse, too, and let you know how that goes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Hey,

so, I have tried USB mouse and it works fine.

Furthermore, mosuepad works perfectly well, too.

It is Google Drive apps that are not compatible or something.

Whenever I write a document in gdrive, I get this weird things with mouse clicking all around...also the USB mouse.

If I than switch to KingSoft Office or Polaris, the weirdness continues there, too.

But, If I don't open or work in gdrive, everything works just fine!

On the matter of lag: no lag here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
and didn't you notice more lags while scrolling through apps and widgets or moving apps? try holding an icon on your homescreen and move it fast around the screen, see what happens.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Nope, seems same.

Maybe launcher thing...i'm on apex...

I don't see any performance degradation because of the dock.

I do have other problems sometimes. Like, can't enter a pin number on lockscreen.

Also, that was kind of a funny thing, when i first showed pad and dock to some friends i brought it turned off.

Pulled it out of and said "I have a new notebook. But it is not notebook, suckas..." and detached pad.

Then i turned it on. It's just...that it didn't want to turn on...sucka :)

Had to plug in the teh dock again, turn it on and than it was fine.

Strange...happened only once though.

BR
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Oh OK, I see. That's most likely a launcher thing. I think I'll wait for JB for a little while and if it doesn't solve this, I'll probably try Apex or Nova.

That's a bummer with showing it to your friends ;-) kind of like Microsoft showing their new products and getting some kind of BSoD or similar thing almost every time they introduce their new OS ;>

As to the lockscreen - try changing WiFi sleep settings so it won't be turned off when screen is off. Might be bad for battery life, but just check if this is the problem, as it was for many people who had huge lags with waking their Primes up from sleep.

You might also try playing with dock's power-saving settings in ASUS settings.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
I know what they mean, for sometimes swiping the homescreen is less fluid or snappy than at other times. Nothing drastic though.

I type slower than on a regular keyboard, but admittedly, my typing speed has fallen quite a bit since having laser eye surgery. I am currently doing pretty-much-blind-typing, LOL.

Apex has been the best so far, although for heer speed, you could take a look at FTL Launcher as well. Not quite as configurable, but its "instant" homescreen swiping is as fast as your system van do it. ;)

As far as I know, having WiFi enabled doesn't consume a relevant amount of battery when it is not actively transferring data. Indeed, several Prime owners have benefited from having it always on (the way it is stock on the TF700, I believe, so unless you have tweaked this setting yourself, it probably already keeps WiFi enable dwhile sleeping). It never hurts to try, I guess.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
OMFG. I am so stupid sometimes :D

I have a password on several sites that consists of characters and numbers.

Well, for the PIN on the pad i choose same numbers. And of course I wanted to type in my password, with characters, too.

And it didn't work :laugh: - how strange :D

There actually is a little lag, but that's nothing to what I was thinking is going on :)

Thanks anyway! (I usually have wifi always on, also on phone....and it doesn't drain much battery if not transferring....)
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
That's good to hear ;-)

I've actually discovered that it may be 3-5% battery/hour less drain with WiFi completely off and screen on (apart from the obvious advantage of turning off Internet while reading pdfs, so I won't get distracted easily...).
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loplo:
Hey there,

I'm planning to buy the European version of the 10.1 Tab 2 and I have some questions. I know that there's an IR blaster on the WiFi version, but I can't find any info regarding the 3G version. Actually, there's no word regarding the IR blaster in neither of the user guide, WiFi nor 3G.

1. Is there an IR blaster on the 3G version?

2. Are there any hardware differences between devices launched in different countries? I'm planning to buy one from Germany.

3. Are the hardware differences between the WiFi and the 3G version affecting the functionality of the devices? Are there any noticeable operation speed differences?

I'm interested in using the IR blaster, so if there`s no IR on the 3G, I can live with it. I can share my data plan from my SGS2 via WiFi.

I've searched the net and didn't found any reviews of the Tab 2 10.1 3G covering my questions.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Endoroid:
I think only the xx13(wifi only) models have the ir blaster. But it doesn't seem to be supported by custom roms. Neither cm9 nor AOKP do. Frankly it seemed like a novelty to me, but maybe that's just because i don't watch much tv.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loplo:
Thanks for your input.

I've noticed that the custom ROMs are not supporting the IR blaster. In this case maybe I'll choose the 3G version.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
As far as I know, the IR Blaster is only available on the US WiFi versions. Anything outside the US (and maybe Canada) won't have the IR blaster.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Endoroid:

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pushnoi:
Bought one here in the Netherlands... it's a GT-P5113 (which is supposed to be the US version of the Wifi Tab 2) and it does NOT have the IR Blaster....
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loplo:
It's strange. As far as I can remember, I've seen one at Mediamarkt - Germany with a dark plastic thing on the top/middle section. It looked like a IR blaster cover on the WiFi version.

Today or tomorrow I'll go there again and I'll take some pictures.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pushnoi:
I'll check to see if it's any different than mine =)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loplo:
Just got back from Mediamarkt. The Galay Tab 2 10.1 has no IR blaster. I think I saw to many reviews on the internet and I've remembered wrong. My mind is playing with me :)

The WiFi version costs 369,- EUR and no UMTS version available at Mediamarkt Germany. They have no supplier and they don't even know if it is going to be available in the future.

I'll wait 2-3 weeks while checking more shops, maybe I'll jump over to Holland to compare those prices too.

LE

I've checked om mediamarkt.nl and the 3G version costs 422 and the Wifi 336 EUR. I think Holland is waiting for me :))
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Motawa88:
Hey

I was wondering if it is possible to create a shortcut on my home menue that starts n64oid and then automatically lets say Ocarina of Time and lets me setup an custom icon for that shortcut? would be pretty cool to have one page with just n64 icons/games that start automatically the mulator+ rom =)

Is that possible? Would be very cool.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
I've never used n64oid, but this is the case for GBCoid by the same dev, so I would assume it's similar. When I long press on my home screen, and select to add a shortcut, one of the options is "GB/GBC game" (obviously for you this would be "N64 game"). I can then select a ROM and enter a name, and it'll create a shortcut to that game. As for a custom icon, you'll need a launcher that supports changing the icons on shortcuts, by default it'll have the emulator icon (I think a lot of launchers can do that - one that definitely can is Launcher Pro).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Motawa88:
seems not to work with n64oid.

edit: it works. Nice!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martirio3000:

The only app I found was "My Boy! - GBA Emulator" that allows ROMs to be used as shortcuts on home screen requiring the app to open to automatically to load it according to what the description says.

[Android Apps and Games] TheRoosevelt:
I use Google Voice as my primary SMS client. The android app is functional, maybe, but the interface is atrocious.

Seriously, it's just plain text.

The few themes for the app out there do little to help, and when I looked at the XML files, I can see why. There's very little room for customization outside of color tweaking, at least from what I could tell from tinkering for a couple of hours. There's no way to add bubbles like there is the the stock SMS app, and all of the SMS text is left aligned, whether it's an incoming or outgoing text.

So what I'm asking is, can a developer make a Google Voice app that improves on the crappy existing interface and adds bubbles, and aligns outgoing texts to the right and incoming texts to the left?

(like so)

I know Google Voice doesn't have any official API, but these guys have been working around that (I'm not really a programmer so I'm not sure if that link is actually relevant :o )

And if a 3rd party Google Voice client is truly unfeasible, can a developer look into theming the official GV app with bubbles and the text alignment I described? Like I said, I'm not a programmer so my (unsatisfying) efforts may not have scratched the surface of what can actually be done.

tl;dr Google voice sms interface is fugly, plz somebody add bubbles and make it look more like a messaging app :)
[Android Apps and Games] Jainyankee1993:

[Android Apps and Games] TheRoosevelt:

http://db.tt/RrnB57Ir

Btw, i use google voice integration for sms along with go sms and it works fine.
[Android Apps and Games] TheRoosevelt:
I didn't realize that the Google Voice app was different between GB and ICS.

I just started using GV integration today, and it's been mostly good. My only issue is that it doesn't sync directly with google voice, so if I send an sms from my computer, it won't show up on my phone like it does with the GV app.
[Android Apps and Games] lexluthor:
I had been using GV Integration for a while and had been communicating a lot with the developer. I've found that it's just too buggy/unreliable. It's an amazing idea off to a great start, but needs a lot more work.

Unfortunately, I haven't heard from the developer for weeks now and there hasn't been an update in a while. I'm fearing this may have become abandonware.

[Android Apps and Games] mohoXrevolution:
great app but...

Hey,

I absolutely love the theme in post #3, but I was wondering if the dev of that theme would do me a smallll favor. When it's really sunny and it's hard to see the screen, it's really hard to read incoming texts because the black text and the dark-ish gray bubble really just blend together. The blue bubbles are however very easy to read. Is it possible to possibly make the gray bubbles a lighter shade (ex. the same shade of gray as the call/compose icons in the top right or some shade in between but I assume it's better to use a shade that's already part of the theme), and if not that then it could even work to switch the colors so outgoing messages are in the gray bubbles, and incoming are blue, since it's more important to be able to read the other person's messages as not mine.

Hopefully it's a small task for you, thanks in advance!
