[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MДЯCЦSДИT:
While my brother was up north with his friends, he ended up going tubing with his phone in his pocket. He fell off into the lake 4 times. He did not do anything (didn't open it up to dry, just left it in his pocket) until he got home 6 hours later. I took it and put it in rice for a couple of hours and it would turn on and either boot loop or go really really slow. He was going to pay TEP $100, but I odined it to see if the flash memory got corrupted and then it worked fine!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] liquid.emotion:
Good things you didn't put it in the Microwave like someone i know. =)

and you guess it... KAABOOMM!!! lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LIGHTSOUT225:
About how deep would you say the phone got in the water?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MДЯCЦSДИT:
It was still in his pocket... so not too deep... only like 1 foot or 2 since he was wearing a life jacket.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] G1_enthusiast:
lol does it matter? it was in water
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jas27:
Amazing phone lol. Let us know how long it lasts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] peanut1596:
Well the pressure of being deeper in the water could play as another factor.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] entropism:
LOL, no it doesn't. Pressure will only matter if the item is waterproof to begin with. Wet is wet in this case, simple as that. OP, prepare for a ton of corrosion in the next few weeks/months. Don't be surprised if it dies on him. OH, and call him an idiot for going in the water with his phone in the first place.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] magnum_touchpro:
thats pretty wild..

i dropped my s2 in the toilet 6 months , left it in rice over night and now it works perfectly

Who the hell goes tubing with a phone in his pocket, nonetheless a 600$ phone.. Leave it in the boat!

Seriously.... I don't even take my phone to the pool with me because I'm afraid it will get splashed or something.. I leave it at home or in the carcar

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cheetablaze:
If I'm going in the water, i'll just active my crappy Pantech P7040,and bring a dedicated camera with me. I'd rather destroy them both rather than destroy my precious pebble blue baby!.... seriously....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LIGHTSOUT225:
Some companies say your phone is relatively safe from submersion up to certain depths, given you don't just let it sit there and soak (you could drop it in accidentally and snatch it back up real quick). The depth most certainly matters.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
I agree with that. Another factor though the OP didn't bother removing the power asap can save parts from short circuiting. I had a previous phone survive a short submersion but I removed it asap and the the battery and dried it as much as possible. the screen was weird for few days but it dried out eventually and looked normal. The original poster was lucky. Removing power asap before worrying about removing moisture may be a good priority. Amazing feat for a phone in that boat ride.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bohiti:
I must confess I went wakeboarding with my old Sprint HTC Hero in my swimsuit pocket a few years ago. Yeah, just an absent minded dumb mistake. I tried the rice thing and it did kinda turn on but never worked right.

Obviously I didn't care about that phone like I do this one :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lviv73:
I wanted to return my Optimus V that i used as a donor phone to flash my GS2 to Virgin Mobile,so i put it in the microwave for about 4 seconds and it started to smoke a little.

So i thought that it was fried and tried to turn it on and to my surprise LG logo still came on but that was it.I took it back to the store that i got it from and said that its broken and got my money back.I broke it just to make sure ESN was fried.

My gs2 was in the toilet for unknown amount of time,i took it apart,dried it baked it in oven and it still worked but i could only use the "Power" button once to turn on the phone and after that power button didnt work.

Recently rooted my epic 4g touch to install the mijjz goodness rom but when i go to the file to load the zip it starts and then gives me the errormessage... Pls someone help me fix this i really want the mijjz rom!! Also what does he yellow triangle mean and how do i get rid of it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 2momo123:
Before we can help you, we need to know a few things :) What Rom are you currently on? What Recovery are you trying to use to flash the new Rom? What Kernel are you using (available in Settings, About). Also, is your phone currently able to boot up?

The Yellow triangle comes when you are using a Kernel that is not the factory default. You can either make/buy a boot jig to remove it, or use the Triangle Away App, but it can only be used on ICS based Roms, and may very well brick (temporarily or permanently break) your device. Use it at your own risk. It is very risky.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3d evo:
Im currently going from gb to mijjz goodness using odin i hav clockwork mod recovery but whenn i try to intsall the zip it starts then stops with a error messagen yyes it will boot up w a yellow triangle and now my wifi isnt wrkn
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
If you are on GB I would flash el26 direct boot kernel. it will boot you right into recovery. if you are getting an error message i would try to redownload the rom from your computer and then transfer it to your SD card. Also get Agat63's kernel here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1767421 After you flash the direct boot kernel, wipe everything, you can use calkulins format all. which is at the bottom of the Miji ICS page first post. then install the Rom usual fashion. before you boot up flash agat63's kernel. now you will have a safe recovery to flash from and some nice tweaks if you want to under volt or over clock. It will take a little while to boot up, your phone is building the delvik cache which takes a little while. after that you should be good to go. Have fun, safe flashing. (make sure you read and follow the op directions) :)

Edit: use triangle away after you flash to reset you counter. That's causing the yellow triangle. Sorry forgot to add that in the first time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
You can only use triangle away on ics roms right... ,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
that is correct.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] miguel11691:
This is absolutely the best case for this phone in my opinion if you not clumbsy with your phone... Great look and feel... I have the all black one and just makes the phone that much better if that is even possible

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mark9876:
did you happen to take the photos? i'm looking at getting a case, although i'm not sure its necessary (dont want to make the phone bukly, its already on the chunkier side)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Incipio Dual Pro

I ordered this case after reviewing several and reading several people's comments on cases, and I'm still waiting for it to come in. I'll let everyone know what I think of it when I get it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] kettlepot:
no pictures yet?? :):)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
He did post pictures, but he started a new thread for it. The link is here.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jonah1234:
It's better than the tpu case?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Better is up to the person holding the phone in the case. He posted pictures of the white TPU S-Line case. I can't answer as to whether any others are better. The OP hasn't posted anything on the forums in two weeks, so it might be best to send him a private message and ask how each case fits and feels. However, in his post, he says he thinks the Incipio Dual Pro is the best he's tried, but not everyone likes the same thing. Send him a private message and hopefully it'll pop up in his email and he'll see to come reply.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Incipio Dual Pro

So, I got the case in and here are my thoughts:

Size: It adds a bit of weight and bulk, which makes it heavier than my original Incredible with its case. It won't take much getting used to, though. I'd say it's about 50% heavier with the case. The extra size isn't nearly as noticeable as the weight difference.

Feel: It feels pretty nice. The power button makes it more sensitive than it is without the case, as it's directly on the top middle rather than slightly toward the front, and sometimes you can't feel that you've pressed it. The volume rocker, on the other hand, makes it much easier to determine if you're touching the up or down rocker without looking. When placing your phone on its face on a table, it's slightly raised so you don't have to worry about it scratching your screen if the surface is perfectly flat.

Look: It looks great, but I got the black one, and the rubber part of it is a lint collector. If you have a lot of lint in your pocket, you're definitely going to see a little bit of it on the sides.

Sound: Sound from the speakerphone is great. However, if the phone is laying on its back with the screen up, you can't feel the vibrate. On the face you can feel it decently. I keep the phone in my pocket with the face against my leg, so I can feel it vibrate most of the time.

Durability: The inner part of the case just feels like rubber, and the outer part of it is hard plastic. In my opinion, the inner part could be a little more sturdy, but with the outer part, it works well. The plastic outer back picks up fingerprints quite well, but it wipes away just as easily. I'm not so sure how well it will hold up to scratches. Only time will tell.

Overall, I think this is a pretty good case. The weight difference can be overcome, and with enough vibrate for me to feel it when it's in my pocket, no sound distortion, and pretty solid, I think I can live with it for two years. I give it a 4/5.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
once rooted and on a ROM, we may be able to crank up the vibrate settings for you.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Sounds like a plan. Now go fix my weather problem for me. You can do it! :)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
HTC issue, afaik, sorry
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
I just have to try to live with it. :(
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
In addendum to my original observations, I would like to state that the inner part of the case is definitely a dust magnet, but the vibrate has gotten better. I can definitely feel it and hear it better than I could two weeks ago. Maybe it just wasn't settled in yet.

Anyway, definitely a great buy if you don't mind a little lint on your case.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
almost like the otter box, i have the defender otter box, i like it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:

P.S Sry for my bad english
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] T3hBraveBoss:
Well with people losing their IMEI's here and there would before flashing a rom other than stock avoid this problem? would backing up protect myself and others from losing their IMEI's
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] liquid.emotion:
I'm one of those "people".

so the answer is no. =)

you have to back up the un-corrupted EFS folder that have your IMEI in it.

there are many software and apps that claim to back up those file

you can just search "how to back up efs folder" there should be plenty of solutions and guild.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] defnow:
"Claim" is right.....i tried backing it up with Ktool off the market....its experimental but it says no nv_data found.....so thats a no go.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] T3hBraveBoss:
I just moved the folder efs to my sd, that enough?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] defnow:
Don't think that matters...theres no nvdata.bin file in the efs folder...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] T3hBraveBoss:
oh, well I used this app called nitrality to back it up, but not sure where it backed in up too

and I tired using rom manager to help but I cant find the galaxy s3 as an option on phone models

See if Mskip will add efs backup/restore to the toolkit i know the Nexus version of the toolkit has it

Hi All,

Currently running IC Evolution V2.0 Android version 4.0.3 with Sense 4.0.

Is there a way to revert back to the stock ICS telstra ROM as I would like to sell my phone.

Any tutorial would be great.
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
If you search this thread, you will find the RUU file (executable file that contains ROM, radio and firmware all in one). You just need to plug in, run the RUU and follow the prompts :)

You didn't specify your model so I'll point out that this is for the Sensation Z710A.

I had done this earlier as it was instructed by earlier posts. I went through all the prompts on the RUU file and tells me I have the wrong ROM.

Very confused, hope this gives you a better idea
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
Did you change your CID before flashing your custom ROM? You might have to change this back before running this RUU.
[HTC Sensation] setted7:
Not to sure.

Is there a link on how to do this. I'm new to all this stuff.
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
Read this thread. You will need to set your CID back to TELST001 as per this thread.

Hi,

I have my Note since 2 months ago. It restarted, but only 4-5 times a WEEK. Yesterday, I was browsing Internet and Note restarted. 'Ok, normal I said'. The phone turned on and I entered Internet. Again, it restarted. I wait the phone to start, and when I was unlocking it, it restarted. And restarted, and restarted, and restarted. So I take the sd off and turn on the phone. No problems. Then I put the SD card. Turn on the phone. No problems! Until now. Same happened. Same I did. It restarted only 1 time, then no problems. But I pay too much for this phone (in the country I live) and with my old Ace it didn't happened! It's annoying, EVERY TIME I TURN OFF THE PHONE AND THEN TURN IT ON, RESTARTS! And I have to take off the battery 2 times, put it 2 times, wait for the phone two times, and put the sd card. It's really annoying!! Someone can help me?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PoisonWolf:
If you're completely stock, and still on Gingerbread....and you're ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU ARE ON GINGERBREAD......like REALLY SURE....

Then do a factory reset and use the phone "as is" without installing any new apps for a week.

If you're good for a week with no reboots, then it's surely an app that's causing it. =)

i had the same problem but the problem is caused by apex launcher in my note so i uninstalled it and it's back to normall now.. may be you can also give it a try
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] praetorius:
1. reset to factory since you are on GB

2. reformat the sd card, otherwise replace or remove it then observe.

if it still does that after factory reset and without the SD card, then consider a warranty claim.

I had totally wiped the rezound and updated to the Leaked ICS 3.14.605.5 RUU from a locked state to get the new firmware and everything first. That was successful. unlocked phone and re installed amon ra recovery and re rooted after that.

i used controlbear to get s-off on my rezound. bootloader shows s-off, however when i try to reboot the phone it just shows me the juopunutbear screen.

i believe if i flash the backed up boot.img i can get it working, however i don't know the path for using the fastboot flash boot "path" boot.img command.

can anyone help or point me in the right direction? i have been looking over the forum for hours and searching to no avail.

can't use USB toggle for sd card in recovery either, it doesn't allow me to see my ex sd on my computer.so i can't manually add a file, but maybe i can fastboot flash to the card? i need some help!

You don't have to flash a boot image when you are s off. Flash ruu twice.

the problem was that it messed up the sdcard so i couldn't put a rom on to flash it, or the ruu, so i had to flash the boot to get it to reboot the stock rom from the RUU i had on it. the phone is working now i just can't get the external sd card fixed and busybox won't install. says it can't find root or su.... trying to flash a rooted rom from a different sd so i can run busybox and fix my sd card. lol if only i had an adapter for sd card with me i could just format it in windows (its empty anyway) grrr
[HTC Rezound] Bubbled:
I used another sd card and was able to flash a custom rooted rom with supersu and busybox, which allowed me to fix sd card. everything is well and now im updated to ICS with a new awesome rom (ViperReZ1.0.3) and S-Off! woo hoo, this can be deleted
