[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikas51013:
Due to a bad experience with a Amazon Seller, Who sold me a UK carrier (Deutche Telekom) Phone as a brand new Factory unlocked international verison, I wanted to verify if there is any way to see, if phone is indeed Quad Core as mentioned...

1) All Specification, such as RAM... etc.. What is the country of origion and if it is indeed factory unlocked or not...

Is there any way to verify all this?

2) Do you have any suggestion of a reputed seller in US, who can provide a factory unlocked phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexx910:
hey man. If its the int. version, it has to have the quad-core, cause only asian and american version of galaxy s3 has a dual-core crait with 2gb ram.

Only in south korea there is a quad-core 2gb edition of the galaxy s3, with LTE. :)

and deutsche telekom is for sure not a UK branded phone.

This has to be a german branding, cause only in germany its called deutsche telecom, deutsch=german :P

I hope I could help ya ;)

Otherwise, look trough code entry: *#1234# or something like that :D That gives you out your version.

But I'M 100% sure that you have the int. version with quad-core and 1gb ram.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ascariz:
Install system tuner pro. See how many core u have in spu setting.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Either you've omitted something or that sounds right.

UK got the international i9300, so that is right

Brand new... well nothing contradicts that in your statement

Carrier-Version... nothing to do with network locking unless it actually was carrier-locked which you didn't say. Carrier-branded (carrier-related stuff installed) does not equal carrier-locked.

Even if it's destined for China, Autralia,... as long as the model number reads i9300 it's the same phone.

If you've got a version for China you might wanna flash the European firmware (fully compatible) though, unless you actually want chinese stuff :D

Dear developer friends

i just saw Firefox OS running on Nokia N9 phone

just asking if it is possible since it has some new features and based on HTML5 web standards as core system, to port it to HTC HD2.

thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english :good:
[HD2 General] jianC:
It will be done if there is interest and potential..

This may partly answer your query: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/mobile/features/
[HD2 General] wisinx:
MMmm... Sorry to interrupt but I think he/she was not talking about that.

To be exact the question was if it was possible to get Firefox OS << yep is clickable. To the HD2. And for a quick answer yes it could be possible, just go and inspire a dev or learn how to dig up from the source. Here

In resume... Can be possible and please don't confuse it with the browser. :)

Cya
[HD2 General] domenukk:
I would love to play around with it aswell. :laugh:
[HD2 General] bzdemes:
Yes this would be pretty cool. Imagine its pretty doable for the devs that have done all the Android work. I have managed to download the source and build the emulator but that is about as far as my knowledge can take me lol
[HD2 General] midoBB:
Maybe we can do a pool (are you interested in FireFox os on HTC HD2 : yes or no) like in the meego port to show the devs we are intersted.

Like if we can get many yes's i am sure one of our devs would start tinkering
[HD2 General] Rikorose:

[Motorola Droid X2] Caboose27:
I have an issue with I try to use any tethering other than PDANet with my Droid x2. I actually had this issue when it was stock, and thought maybe they had some safety built into the stock ROM. When I switch on wifi or wired tether, as soon as I start using a bunch of data, (ie 60 k/s sustained for a half minute or so) my 3G magically goes away, and stays that way until my connection is idle again. If I go through this cycle a bunch of times, eventually it'll become stable for the better part of an hour before going through the same issue. Now, as far as I can tell, this has something to do with the way Verizon monitors tether usage, but I'm on CM7.2, so wouldn't that sort of 'safety' be gone by now?

When I use PDANet, I can use it as much as I like without even a hiccup, so I know it isn't my connection. Any suggestions as to the cause, and how I can go about correcting it? Thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Strange problem and sorry I'm drawing a blank... although i do have an image of an old country doctor smacking you up side the head with a rubber chicken saying "well use PDAnet"!! (For you youngsters that a Hee Haw reference)...:D

It's hard to use PDANet with Linux. I like being able to use this with my laptop.
[Motorola Droid X2] kenjesse:
Never used tethering with Linux, almost sounds like the problem might be on the computer side as I've never had problems using it with Windows.

You might do better asking for advice concerning the best way to tether with the particular version of Linux your using.
[Motorola Droid X2] Caboose27:
It's not the computer, because it works fine with every other phone. Also, when I use the built in tether with my desktop, it does the same thing. When I use PDANet, it's fine.

Ordered my sandisk class10 off ebay a month an a half ago when I pre-ordered my S3. Got it for only $64 with free shipping. Glad I bought it then, too, because the price jumped up $10 - $15 everywhere else a week later as demand picked up, and it hasn't gone back down yet.

I bought a couple of these last month for 59.99, and I've seen them on Best Buy daily deals twice this month for several dollars less than that shipped. Just keep your eyes peeled. Working great, with tons of space considering the apps aren't taking up space on the card.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
What is the best format for these csize cards ? Fat32 goes up to only 4 gigs.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] :
What are you referring to? The file size is what is limited to 4GB not the card itself. exFAT works fine for me, but it caused the card to not be recognized by my custom recovery. Since I have no interest in have files bigger than 4GB on my sdcard, it chose to go with FAT32 instead for better compatibility.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] :
See, that's what I don't get that's not an App I can use on my CM9 Note. Is there any Android Apps that format FAT 32?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] :
You can try to format the card on the phone using the Storage menu in settings.
[Nexus 7 General] IconBoy:
Our kids are using the N7 and I wondered how I could go about making it a good tool for them to learn on (games, letters, numbers etc.) but at the same time hide/restrict the more grown-up stuff, like email, maps and all the other stuff they won't have need of at this time.

I figured I can make a folder for all their games and learning apps, but has anyone got any ideas of how I can tweak the unit so when they use it, it will be "barebones" for them but still allow me access to the full features if the need arises. The unit is predominately for the kids so I won't need access that much. It would be great that once they switch it on, all they see is "their" stuff. Ideas...?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] kind3rgarten:
As far as the "child proofing" goes, definitely get a good case and screen protector, maybe even something that they can put around their wrist when they hold it so they don't drop it as much.

To hide apps, download something like Apex Launcher and go to the drawer settings, it has a way to hide any installed app.

You could also install Avast! Anti virus. I think that has a way to block certain websites from being accessed and and also includes features to find the device when lost and lock certain apps.

There is also a new launcher coming out called Chameleon that looks a lot more straight forward for a kid to use. The launcher also includes pages of apps that change the feel of the device.
[Nexus 7 General] garryknight:
If you press the All Apps icon then touch and hold an icon for a built-in app, you can drag it up onto an Info icon. As well as showing you info about the app, it allows you to disable it. So you can install only 'safe' apps and disable 'non-safe' apps', including the Play Store.

Then all you have to do is make sure they don't have access to the Tapatalk app in case they read this post... :)

I have the same problem my grandson is coming over for the weekend so I'm going to test this out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sp.protector.free
[Nexus 7 General] nickmv:
The Play Store definitely has some child-proofing available.

If you're on the more nerdy side, you could actually root the device, set it up how you like it, then either make the Market and other offending apps invisible, or lock access to them.

Just depends on how far you want to go. Something tells me that the Play Store child-proofing may be enough.
[Nexus 7 General] evonc:
There is an app called Switch Me. Basically it lets you configure multiple profiles by setting up a new /data partition for each one allowing you to restrict access to certain apps and so on and even have multiple Google accounts setup for each user. You should check out out.

[Nexus 7 General] player911:
I bought my 5 year old an original Samsung Galaxy tab 7" and he is autistic so went through a throwing phase when he first started getting into electronics, like when he'd lose in a game. Anyway we have just a silicon case for it and it has with held the torture of all time and it is still in great shape. He even threw it off a second story balcony and it landed on a hardwood floor... bouncing afterward... but still chugging. No dents or scratches or defects. Thing is a champ.

While the Nexus 7 is a little thinner, I figured I'd reply anyway. GET A CASE.... and a screen protector. The Galaxy tab is a stout device but let's hope the Nexus 7 is AS good if not better. It feels solid.

I just got mine after lots of torturing myself that my Transformer was sufficient, but I must say the more I use it the more I like it.

You could look into the Fuhu Nabi 2 that I read about recently. It is basically a nexus 7 without JB (runs ICS), built in protection, and defaults to kids mode (the dad mode is a normal android). 8GB for $199

[Nexus 7 General] ReggieTee:
Child proof it by buying them something else.
[Nexus 7 General] sparkym3:
No, not child proofing the nexus 7, but instead a "Childproof Nexus 7", as the title says, which is basically what that device seems to be. Though this would not help anybody who already has a Nexus 7, it may help somebody looking for a Nexus 7 type device for their child.
[Nexus 7 General] aludal:
Thanks for the link to my blog. As for OP's problem of rendering the "original" Nexus 7 child proof, it's technically doable by "borrowing" ROM from rooted Fuhu Nabi 2. Naturally, presenting the kid an original Fuhu Nabi 2 and taking back an original "adult" Nexus 7 would be more practical.

Pfft! Just don't let your kids use it. Make them go outside and build tree houses, play with an abacus or read encyclopaedias. 80s *****!

I also agree on getting the nabi2 its a really nice device. My 2 year old never killed her nabi1 and the 2 seems even more solid. She has thrown both of them and took a crayon (washable) to it and wild off with no marks or scratches on th screen.

The only issue I have is no root on it, but its nice and quick. Screen is not as nice as my Nexus7, but it has microsd slot and HDMI port. I hear someone rooted one but Fuhu asked them not to release how, so if anyone hears about root please post it here on the forums. I thought about trying the root tool for nexus but she loves it too much for me to risk it.

Them Fuhuans can ask anybody anything, XDA-Devs is a free-rooting country. I think the race is on already, to turn Nabi 2 into a chewable/droppable N7 with SD slot/HDMI. My guess the N7 and Nabi 2 are twin brothers (ASUS 370T being their dad), so a "standard" N7 rooting tool will work. If not at the first attempt, then with some minor tweak.

I'm following Nabi 2 (and Furbi 2) progress in my blog closely, so you're welcome there. Can't guarantee being exclusive bearer of the news though....
[Nexus 7 General] Dropline:
I think you saw my other post about that guy and Fuhu. I tried a genetic tool. I was going to try with the nexus one, but Nabi is ICS not jellybean so did not want to risk it. Same boat, my kid loves it.

Also we got the glow in the dark bumper from fuhu with our VIP Gold upgrade, the new bumpers are bigger and thicker so should take a fall better. Just letting you know, not sure how rough you're kid is with it.
[Nexus 7 General] thebobp:
Perfect App protector is one possibility. (It is kinda annoying, but you said you wouldn't be using the device much.)

totally agree with this :highfive: kids need to go outside more often... my girlfriend knows this family with a 2 baby's... the first baby her first word was Ipad, and she was even using an Ipad at like 18months... what a sad sad childhood:(
[Nexus 7 General] Dropline:
I do agree, but when I tried to have my 2 year old build a tree house she kept falling out of the tree... kidding of course.

I do agree that kids need to go out more, and mine does just not much for a 2 year old to do on her own. Her favorite game outside right now is "pick up sticks for dad's wood pile" my trees do not drop top many do that's a short game. Also when she is in the yard she knocks on the camper and says "I want to go to Glennie" that's where we camp. Also she helps with the garden and likes to act like she is helping when I do yard work.

So a kid can have tech and not end up being some pale faced basement dweller. No offence to pale faced basement dwellers, and none where harmed in this posting (other posts some may have been harmed).

I grew up in the 70s we had old school Atari, computer (if you can call that slow monster a computer), and several full sized arcade games. I still spent most of my early years in the woods, on the bmx tracks we built and many other outside things, so you can have both. Big issue is when patents I use tech as a baby sitter, not the case with us. Nabi is just another indoor toy.
[Nexus 7 General] aludal:
For this forum specialization, her first word should better be "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1", lol. On a more sober note, a speedygonzo's advice on using launchers that can hide "adult" apps can produce a more consistent didactic experience for a child as he/she grows. As for falling from tree houses and other exciting outdoor activities, these, yes, don't really mix well with using kid (or "adult") tablets that are hard to watch under direct sun. For a kid's indoor learning and entertaining, a good tab like Nabi 2 or N7 with "appropriate" launcher and Nabi-like bumper) should IMHO take the precedence before TV, game consoles, etc.

Anybody who has received their Nabi 2's already has any videos to share?

Anyone who also owns N7 and can make side by side comparison video could IMHO do a great service to all who reads this thread to answer which tab is better for them.
