[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paul-g:
Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to upgrade my phone from Yakjudv to Takju/JB. Unfortunately I've run into some issues, and as they are quite different from the questions in my original thread, I thought it best to start a new one. I do apologise if this was the wrong thing to do! I just thought that an answer to this may be helpful for others, as my searching for an answer is coming up blank.

Before I found XDA forums, I had downloaded and installed Wug's toolkit, and used it to manually install drivers for my phone. This led me to being able to find my phone's serial number when I load toolkits or run adb devices tools.

I then tried to backup my ROM using the method here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21266325&postcount=239

Unfortunately, I got an error saying 'can't mount SD Card' (presumably because the GNex doesn't have an SD Card). Being worried about this, I thought it might be a driver based issue, so I tried to uninstall my drivers by:

1. uninstalling them from device manager (including deleting the driver software);

2. disabling downloads of drivers in windows; and

3. uninstalling all entries related to Galaxy Nexus, Google and Samsung in UDBview

I restarted, plugged my phone in, and the phone suddenly reinstalled, finding drivers on its own. It showed Galaxy Nexus and Samsung ADB device as being installed. When I tried to manually install universal drivers from here:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29044502&postcount=735 , I was told by my PC that up to date drivers were already installed.

I don't seem to be able to uninstall the drivers, no matter what I do. I have even tried to uninstall the drivers using Galaxy Nexus Toolkit (I'm trying to avoid using this, but thought it might do the job).

Is this a problem?

If so, is there anything I can do to uninstall the drivers properly?

Thank you so much in advance, everyone!

Drivers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
Google USBDeview, and download the application. When you run the program, make sure to right click and "run as administrator". This will show you all of the drivers installed on your computer. Delete anything that says "Samsung" "Galaxy" or "Nexus". This will give you a clean slate to start with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paul-g:
Thanks for the advice. I have tried to do this, and uninstalled all of the Google/Samsung/Galaxy/Nexus options, but the minute I plug my phone in, it all just reinstalls!

Thanks for this. I have used it to install the drivers for when in fastboot mode, and I forced installation for the Samsung ADB Device that showed up in my Device Manager.

Do I need to do anything for the driver for the "Galaxy Nexus" device?

Thanks so much!

I've been using Swype for the last two years, works like a charm!

I'm trying out the SwiftKey Flow Beta right now, seems even more intuitive, although there's a few tidbits I prefer in Swype.

I guess it all comes down to whether you prefer actual typing or swyping though. ;)

Swype

Swype is my favorite. I've tried several gesture keyboards and I find that swype cares the least about how I swype. I also love the "ctrl+c" and "ctrl+v" ability.

At this moment i think that Swiftkey Keyboard is the best choice.

If you're bilingual like me, check out Swype, fast switching with one touch, but don't install versions 1.4, they tend to be sluggish, 3.26.92.39062 is the way to go

As for swift key, doesn't really work well with two languages.

I am using swift with 3langs, German, Turkish and English and it is working well, I am using the same layout for all and have not to switch between the languages.

[Desire Themes and Apps] freebird24h:
Really no trouble with 3 languages? guess I'm just not as careful when typing.

Btw is it possible to quickly copy/cut/paste in swiftkey? I wasn't able to find that option there.
[Desire Themes and Apps] MetinKale38:
I am typing very accurate also if I am writing ver fast and without looking. Small mistakes are correct by SwiftKey and it is always selecting the right word

Copy paste should be os related, the same for me with all keyboards (android 4.2.2)

Swype offers the possibility to highlight text just by tapping it, and then you can use windows like shortcuts like ctrl+c or ctrl+v (swype from swype key to c or v)

[Nook Touch General] Invisman:
An app I installed on Nook Touch doesn't even start. I checked the logcat file and realised there is a NullPointer Expection regarding GetDeviceID. I believe Nook Touch just provides a string without the needed 16 characters, which I believe is used by this app to register the device with it's server.

So the question is, is it possible to modify the device id of Nook Simple Touch. I tried this app called Android ID Changer. It does change the id but goes back to the original once the device restarts. I tried manually modifying settings.db in /data/data/com.android.provider.settings but again it reverted to original id on startup.

So is it possible to modify this device id?
[Nook Touch General] bobstro:
Renate has done a write up on modifying the init.rc. You could try re-inserting the value for /data/data/com.android.provider.settings in settings.db during the init process. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the NST boot process to tell you how to guarantee that your entry occurs after whatever clears it each time, but it might be worth a shot.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Everybody's init.rc are all the same.

All the device specific stuff is in the:

Partition Type Start End Size (bytes) Mount
--------- ---- ----- --- ------------- --------
mmcblk0p2 vfat 39 46 16,777,216 /rom

Um, there's IDs and there are IDs.

Which getDeviceId() was blowing up?

I'd guess that you were using the TelephonyManager getDeviceId()

Since the Nook is not a telephone, it probably returned null.
[Nook Touch General] Invisman:
Thanks guys

Not sure which DeviceID was causing the error but since the log says NullPointer Exception, I guess it is the Telephony one. Anyway to make it return some 16 character string when the TelephonyManager DeviceID request comes in?
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
Telephony ID will be IMEI.

The only problem with nook, it does return random IMEI on every call - random, but not null.

Lot's other stuff won't work if IMEI returns null, I guess... :o

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fortunado:
As far as I can tell, if you have and use this feature regularly, you will not be able to use this feature on this phone unless rooting/romming fixes it. Something samsung has done has broken GVoice on ALL galaxy S3 devices. Some googling reveals that several users have reported issues w/ GS3 (sprint customer or not) and google voice.

Where to from here? Do I pack er up and send it all back to amazon? I'm tempted to. I originally wanted the Evo 4GLTE. I'm sure that works perfectly fine with the sprint feature I use the most. Sigh.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Colombiano80:
Mind elaborating on what's broken? I have gvoice and have had my s3 for about 3 weeks and while I see some issues, I've still been able to fully use it. Its the number I strictly use for work and so far so good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lordmorphous:
+1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fortunado:
The sprint integration allows you to use your main number AS a google voice number. That feature no longer works. :\ What it allowed me to do was to send a text from my device, and view/reply to it from the browser google voice interface.

I've deactivated for now and when I attempt to reactivate I get an error. I'm hoping someone chimes in who's had this problem, but it looks like I must be one of the few who converted over. Ugh
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dmchssc:
I got the same error, but I kept trying it over and over, and it eventually worked. I had an issue with calls not connecting correctly somewhere in between Google and Sprint, so I would get calls that were completely silent. However, I called Sprint and they completely reprogrammed everything on the back end, and I haven't had the problem since.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fortunado:
I spent many hours and shed tears (almost but not really) last night to no avail. Very very weird. You're right though. It finally worked. What I had to do was completely deactivate, reactivate while signed out on my phone. It's back now. Feels good.

Sorry to bug you guys, carry on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] K.0.0.L.:
Mine work flawlessly like it work on my E4GT.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidGnome:
The Sprint integration also works the other way... allowing you to use an original Google Voice (or even GrandCentral) number AS your Sprint Number.

That's how mine is set up, and I can call, text, receive calls, receive texts just as I did on my original Evo 4G without any issues.

Maybe it's just the one way that is screwed up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bielinsk:
If using GVoice, when you get a new phone, you should deactivate GVoice from the web page before switching your phone.

Switch phone, then reactivate.

Kind of a PITA, and neither Sprint nor Google cover swapping devices.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidGnome:
I used to do the same thing back with my Evo 4G.. but this time when I went to activiate my S3, since the website activation was down, I did so over the phone.

When the rep mentioned she was going to test my phone to see if it receives a call and leave a voicemail, I told her I would have to go to Google first and do the remove/reintegrate dance before she tried , and she said "That's no longer needed on the newer phones". She then called my Gvoice number, gvoicemail picked up and was sent to the Google voice app on the phone just like it should have.

Didn't need to touch a thing, I was quite impressed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Stbrightman:
I understand what the op is referring to, I think. With Google voice integrated to your Sprint phone, and selecting gvoice to use your Sprint number as the primary number, you are then unable to:1. use the stock messaging app to receive messages, despite selecting 'use stock messenger' for text messages. All messages are now received thru Google voice widget. 2. You are unable to select 'do not disturb' in this configuration either, which I find unacceptable given the dog**** airline I work for and the harassment we receive on the phone (sorry that's another story). I had to skip the integration portion and use gvoice separate from Sprint so I could retain those features. For those of you who are switching back and forth, integrated and not, I found that it can take up to an hour for the network to catch up. So if you switch one way and want to switch immediately back, you may have to wait.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jadigy:
Sprint is currently experiencing a technical difficulty which prevents new users from integrating their Sprint accounts with Google Voice. Also, users who have disabled the integration cannot re-enable Google Voice/Sprint integration at this time.

Please know that they are hard at work on a solution.

Taken from http://support.google.com/voice/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] taiguy:
same issues other people are describing. I use my google voice number (not my Sprint number) as the outgoing displayed number. Right now initiating calls from my phone display my sprint number and not my google number. Tried disabling from the web interface and it told me that Sprint was undergoing maintenance. bah.:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ScrapMaker:
I just had my SEP changed to the Everything 450 yesterday, and my GV integration stopped working. I went online and tried to reassociate, and I keep getting a back-end failure, and that I need to call Sprint. Is this the same problem that you guys have been experiencing for months? If so, I feel like I am screwed...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xPSYB0RGx:
yep, had the same prob when I first got my phone about a month ago. When I tried to make a call, my real sprint number would show. I searched through the google voice app to see if I had somehow skipped the settings of "ask everytime I make a call" blah blah, couldnt find it. Then I thought it was something messed up in the new google voice app since I couldnt find my backup (older) google voice app.

I eventually called sprint, and they reprovisioned my phone, and everything was working fine.

I just flashed my phone a few days ago to get root and the freegs3 rom, and now everything is borked again. Which is confusing the hell out of me, because my phone is already reprovisioned, and flashing roms usually do not interfere with such settings. Looks like Im going to have to call sprint again.

I did write down the instructions they gave me the 1st time, but I cant find that either, so much for being organized.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinsplitter:
Unable to recieve calls due to Google Voice

So I have a slightly different issue than most have reported. My wifes number would not come through to my phone. Even after multiple reboots and changing all kinds of other settings. I finally deactivated VOICE and she could suddenly call me. The strange thing was it was completely functional for some other numbers to call me, but the wife could not.

Any ideas? Or is Google Voice just pretty much borked across the board for S3 phones right now?
