[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klone96:
I have a question regarding ENSQUARED, I have insurance with them for my GNexus and lately the phones showing its being charged and its not even connected to the charger. i tried cleaning the mico usb port and lifting the ping but nothing.. im really annoyed with this but my friend said it wasnt a big deal and would buy the phone off me for $300. my deductible on EN.. is $75 i believe but my question is can i say i lost the phone have them send me another phone and sell it to my friend without it being tracked to him? or is it better to save it for spare parts bcuz (when connected) it does charge/ hold a charge (Also phone does not go to sleep, i turn it off it wakes it self up, so i drain battery fast 0-100% in 2.3/3hrs)

TIA

I have the Galaxy Nexus (White/Yakju/unlocked/gsm)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alex1123:
That would be fraud telling them you lost it or report it stolen um i think this well get locked soon just saying
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klone96:
Yea that's what I was thinking.. but seeing how people use dirty esn phones on boost mobile/Metro Pcs I didn't think there was much harm in asking bcuz those companies don't check if the phones are lost/stolen. either way I need a replacement sent so if this post gets locked or I get reported or something like I said I didn't see harm in asking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alex1123:
well i guess then you could do it and you would just have to pay or depends on how there insurance works the deductible idk i dont use ensquared im just trying help haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgrim800:
Or you can smash it on the ground and get a new one, and be "honest" I guess.

Oh the irony.

I'm just wondering if either the Home button or Power button can be used as a camera button.:confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lordmorphous:
If you use Apex or Nova launcher (and probably others), you can configure the home button to open the camera app, but not to actuate the shutter.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Kenneth.Torres:
On my skyrocket a dev implemented volume down to take a picture. Personally I love that feature. I know there's an app called ics camera that you can set up the volume buttons to take pictures, but I actually really like the stock interface of the touchwiz camera.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Beta Max:
Did a search and came up short. I downloaded an "icon pack" in zip form. I transferred the files to File Manager HD, how do I get my N7 to recognize these files as some sort of icon pack?

Thanks for the help.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] mslatter:
"Transferred the files" meaning transferring the image files / icons that were in the zipped file? I'd suggest copying / transferring the image files to a dedicated folder on your device - I called my folder "icons" for example. Then in your launcher (I use Nova), you can edit the app icon shortcuts on your home screens, by long pressing on them, and choosing "edit". Then touch on the icon image that's being used, navigate to where your icons are, and select the one you want in there. Hopefully that helps!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] djd338:
I download the icons to Dropbox, then export to gallery/sd storage. Then use Nova to edit. Works for me to support several devices.
[HTC Rezound] JESUSwazBLACK20:
How can I remove the message "This sim card is from an unknown source" while using CONROMV5final ICS 4.0.3 SENSE 3.6 GSM from sense 3.6 lockscreen without replacing the lockscreen with a different one or some third party lockscreen, because I love the sense 3.6 lockscreen, I just want to get rid of that ugly message. Also looked around the forums and the custom roms with sense 4 seems to remove the ugly lockscreen, but I like sense 3.6 a lot more.

Is there any way to deactivate that or remove it somehow so I can just have the regular sense 3.6 lockscreen?

BTW first post in forums, any help is greatly appreciated :)
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
I've never heard of this happening on Sense 3.6 before. Maybe there is something wrong with your sim card?

Did this happen ever since you installed the Rom or did it happen recently?

Fido Canada Sim Card

I am using GSM sim card which is the reason why I am running a GSM rom, sim card works fine no problems at all, I just wish I could get rid of that message in my lockscreen. The ugly message is been up on my lockscreen since day one.
[HTC Rezound] kancherlapraneeth:
how did you get GSM enabled? You flashed the GSM Patch attached in ConRom thread itself?

if yes. try flashing stockgsmfix.zip from below link and then gsm fix posted in ConRom thread!

https://www.dropbox.com/s/s4pqdahzuqv5tx5/STOCKGSMFIX.zip
[HTC Rezound] Abu-7abash:
If it's full GSM capabilities you're looking for, you should really be on the RPG rom by Siulmagic. It's sense 3.6 built for GSM, otherwise you'll always have hiccups and bugs.
[HTC Rezound] Dev222:
Go to the dialer, type *#*#4636*#*# and select "Gsm only".

I hope this will help you :)
[HTC Rezound] JESUSwazBLACK20:
I will try that rom you mentioned :) and I will also try viperRez 1.1 OTA update once Joelz is finished with it, he claimed to have fixed the GSM problems overall.

The dialer method did not work since I'm running a custom rom thats already suppose to support GSM but thank you anyways :)
[HTC Rezound] kancherlapraneeth:
try flashing the zip I posted above!. I believe it should resolve your issue.
[HTC Rezound] JESUSwazBLACK20:
Just did that on my conromv5final and now it gets stuck on boot screen :/

I made a backup right before I tried it, if its meant for this rom why does it seem to be incompatible?
[HTC Rezound] bangah:
Hi

I have same problem with htc rezound but how do solve this problem .. ?
[HTC Rezound] kancherlapraneeth:
flashing a GSM patch should not result in boot screen stuck. may I know if you flashed boot.img also?

edit!!. flash ROM, flash boot.img if s-on, flash stockgsmfix and gsmfix posted in conrom. This way worked for me

[Nexus 7 Accessories] ForbiddenX:
Hey guys my coworker showed me this case today and wanted to share it with you all!

It's the DODOcase HARDcover for the Nexus 7. It's almost like the treegloo cases but I like this one a little bit better. It looks nice and I like the fact that there isn't an entire wooden frame surrounding the device but instead it's held up by an adhesive. Very nice and slim as well.

It also has smart cover functionality.

Check it out at:

http://www.dodocase.com/products/hardcover-for-nexus-7
[Nexus 7 Accessories] lin013190:
Very nice, but it might be too late for me to cancel treegloo :(
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Hexdecimal:
Hmmm...$35 for the shell of a book and an adhesive? That seems really steep for something that wouldn't have much protection.

I got a treegloo for the same price and it comes with the wood frame, not to mention there were a crazy number of colors. I wonder if it's worth emailing them to see if they could make something like this...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Deekayy:
Lol!! My thoughts exactly. It doesn't have enough coverage around the tablet and if that's the highest it can go as a landscape stand, try again..
[Nexus 7 Accessories] ppp38:
Ehhh, there is no protection for the N7 with this case. The idea of using a reusable adhesive doesn't appeal to me at all, I really don't want to have to wipe my case down with water so that it can keep getting sticky. Nor do I like the lack of customzation. I do however, really like the matching elastic band and liner.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
This and a tpu case together would work but sadly I see them becoming extinct fairly soon.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] iamkifo:
Anyone tried ordering the Potenzo version of this case for the Nexus 7 yet? It has the full features as on the iPad versions.

http://shop.portenzo.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=bookcase-for-nexus
[Nexus 7 Accessories] napes22:
Can't justify this kinda of money for a case that offers little to no protection. Just because you can customize it doesn't make it worth $40-$50.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] vboyz103:
I'm willing to bet Apple will start suing Asus, Google for the smart cover tech. Stupid Apple!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] clockcycle:
They have the patent on rectangle, they could always use it.

Now they just need to get the patents on, gyroscope, accelerometer, barometer, magnetic field, orientation, linear acceleration, ambient light, gravity and any of the other sensors in the Nexus 7...

As I see it, I understand why 55% of the manufacturers have agreed to pay Microsoft some sort of "licensing" fee..

It's like a block of merchants in the mall, that are being threatened by one of the larger anchor stores (apple) because they sell similar products and take potential customers away from them. Then comes in the local gang (microsoft) offering "protection" in exchange for extortion monies..

Allowing them in a sense to be protected by a larger portfolio of patents and deeper unified pockets.

Slide to unlock, voice actions, really?!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] dwd3885:
This case looks dope.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] player911:
Asus has been doing this for a while. My Asus Transformer has a magnet under the screen that turns it off and on. The Samsung Galaxy 10.1" had the same thing. Samsung even had a straight Smart Cover rip off and everything... and they DID get sued (the 3rd party company).

Laptops have been doing this for a long time now... and even Blackberry phones. Apple has nothing on this "tech" except maybe for the design (held on by magnets).
[Nexus 7 Accessories] hydroidonic:
Probably one of the better looking cases that I've seen so far. Really tempted on purchased it. Just a little weary about the adhesive that is being used.

Hmm..just thought about this. Since there isn't a wood housing like the treeglo case. It can be repurposed for future 7" tablets.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] vagelis:
They were not the first ones to offer this functionality

BlackBerry had this with their holsters for years before iPhones or iPads every walked the face of the planet ;)

Let's hope that reason and sensibility prevails

Does anyone have this case? I really like the design, I am just a bit concerned with the adhesive grip. Although I guess the elastic strap would help keep it in place while closed

[Acer Iconia A500] superman2k2:
Hello im have a problem where all my apps,shortcuts and UI randomly disappear or my screen and the only thing left is my wallpaper. The only way i resolve it is to go to settings/apps/launcher and force close it. It restarts but its just a temp fix cause randomly it happens again. I have tried Multiple Flexreaper,Thor, and Cm9 roms Multiple bootloaders and Kernals but it always comes back. I ALWAYS do a full wipe (by wiping everything even data) but after a while it comes back. Anyone know how to fix it or Any info would be great thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
I can't help with a fix, but I can confirm that you are not the only one with this issue. I have three Acer tabs, One that's stock ICS A500 no root, one A500 with V3 bootloader and Flexreaper, and one stock rooted ICS with the V8 bootloader. All three do this same thing. The only way that I can get rid of the issue is to downgrade to the Honeycomb bootloader. If it was any more annoying I would go back to the Honeycomb bootloader and pretend to be a chicken while enjoying my nice solid user experience. I'm not sure how Acer bugged it up on this one. But as far as I can tell, it is an Acer ICS bootloader problem that carries over even if the bootloader is patched.

I've been trying to find a solution. So far, other than changing back to HCBL, nothing has worked. It's too bad that one of the Dev's can't see a tablet with this issue. Those guys can fix about anything...
[Acer Iconia A500] superman2k2:
Thak you for the info. Its good to know Im not the only one who has this problem. Do you think CM10 will fix it since its Jellybean?
[Acer Iconia A500] Rippster:
I never experienced that issue...until I moved to Jelly Bean. It happened all the time on the first alpha port, but the latest cm10 is OK. I hasn't happen since. What launcher are you using?
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
I've tried a ton of launchers and it happens on them all. Also, it happens less frequently if I don't have a email widget on a home screen.
[Acer Iconia A500] superman2k2:
I'v also tried alot of launchers and they all do the same. Thanks for the email widget tip
[Acer Iconia A500] superman2k2:
Has there been any new developments on this issue and how to fix it?
[Acer Iconia A500] tgtoys:
I'm on hc bootloader and never have that problem. I am fully capable of flashing ICS bootloader, but have no interest in doing so. I see no clear advantage and hear nothing but problems. I'm running the newest TO Jelly Bean and it is practically flawless. Call me a chicken if you like, but I'm a happy chicken with a sweet tablet :D
[Acer Iconia A500] george800:
It happens to me all the time with all the launchers I 've tried. I am in unlocked ics bootloader and stock rom. The same happened with the locked bootloader. I tried the CM10 Rom same results. I removed all widgets from the homescreen with no luck.

If it's in the ICS Bootloader then all must have the same problem or not?

Any solution except going back to 3.2?
[Acer Iconia A500] superman2k2:
To fix it I had to go full stock to Honey Comb then reinstall CWM then install Thor cm v15 and no problems since. I think the problem is the ICS bootloader

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caslca:
Hello,

I see google maps show up in the battery info stats when I haven't touched it. For example, I power off my phone in the evening, charge it and then power it back on before bed. When I wake up 7hrs later, I see google maps has used 7-8% of battery and the phone has lost 15% battery.

I have all location services turned on. I don't have any location-based weather, and I've logged into and turned off lattitude.

I do have yahoo news ticker on the home screen but as far as I know, it isn't location-aware...

Does anyone have any advice on what to try next?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aimara:
google map is always running in the background , you can disable it when not in use
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omeryounos:
See if you are logged on to latitude. If yes sign out. It will save you a lot of battery life.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caslca:
Yeah, I already tried that. Twice. It seems to take maps off the battery stats for 7-8hrs but it pops right back. The only apps I'd use in that time frame are:

exchange mail+ calendar

gmail + google calendar

yahoo news ticker

google music (on-device music only)

fancy widget (clock + weather). location disabled

None of those are location-aware and yet maps pops right back on the battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caslca:
Are you seeing the same on your phone? Why would you think that it is constantly running? There must be some reason why it insists on doing some work in the background and I'm trying to figure what that is.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrgq1111:
anyone know where I can get a the STOCK Maps app? THe one i'm using with the ROM its on keeps saying the same road name even when I drive it never changes and its very annoying.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yotorogo:
I basically wanted to see what are people opinion on this because both phones have qualcoms snapdragon s4, dual core, lte, really the only difference is that the s3 has 2gigs of ram. And as I'm a big gamer I'm going to choose the s3 because the extra gig will help performance, any thoughts?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lviv73:
I say it like this,if you want Amoled go with Samsung.If you dont care about Amoled then there are plenty of other choices out there with equal power.

I play games too but my ram never went beyond 1GB,regardless i would still go with GS3.I had 3 gs phones and never found anything that could rival them.

But i do think extra ram does increase performance because sometimes android it self uses over 700mb of ram.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Product F(RED):
RAM doesn't affect performance unless you have too little. Even the Nexus 7 has 1GB of RAM. The 2GB is there just because they were making up for swapping out the processors. As an i9300 owner, I'll say this: The One X looks and feels better, but it's nothing a case can't take care of. Now, between the One XL and the S3, I'd choose the S3 for a few important reasons:

1. One XL only has like 9GB of usable storage. No memory card slot.

2. No removable battery - if you swap batteries or just wanna replace it after two years, you can't.

3. ROMs - You need to give your IMEI to HTC to get a partial bootloader unlock, and it voids your warranty.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] swindillon:
Agreed, One XL is nice. But the SGS3 is a better choice!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] woodydog:
I have the one x and the gs3 and its not even close the gs3 smokes the one x its not even close
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vdub804:
I have and use both on a daily basis and the OneX wins in my book it's has a waaay better screen (can barely see the screen on my s3 when its sunny out), build quality, camera, sound, and did I mention build quality I was very disappointed when I unboxed my s3 my first words was Damn this feels cheap I threw on the otterbox and wouldn't dream of leaving the house without it. The s3 does have good multitasking, on the onex it gets very annoying when you go back to what you were doing only to have to start over again
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yotorogo:
thanks for all your reply's, im going to be getting the gs3, and personally i don't understand why people say the build quality on the gs3 feels cheap. My friends has one and he lets me use every now and then, and i like how it feels. Don't get me wrong the HTC ONE X has a better build quality but i don't think the gs3 is as bad as people are describing it. Because im going to be signing a 2 year contract with att, i think the gs3 would be a good choice because in a year from now when newer better phones are out the extra ram will help the gs3 be on par with the new phones in terms of performance
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] composi:
I second that motion
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Product F(RED):
The S2, in comparison felt cheap even though it was as high end as you could get. HTC always builds sturdier phones. But the S3 is different; even though it feels plasticky, its clearly a huge improvement in build quality.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MultiLockOn:
I love how misinformed people are. The extra gigabyte isn't going to improve performance noticeably, if at all. As someone above me said even the nexus 7 uses 1gig of ram. Now you could argue that it was for pricing purposes, but android runs similarly to Linux. The more ram being used the better. You're never going to have a problem multitasking, even with only one gig of ram. If you really want to see improvement use an aosp rom. While there's no hardware acceleration on third party launchers as there is touchwiz, touchwiz itself uses more ram than anything

Swyped from a Galaxy S2
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Spartoi:
Dunno why people keep saying that the 2GBs of Ram won't make a difference. As someone who has used several Android devices with only 1GB of Ram, the S3 has kept many more apps in memory than my previous phones. And keeping the apps in memory means not having to reload them = faster multitasking and better user experience (being able to zip through apps is such a wonderful feeling).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yotorogo:
My other friend got an HTC one XL and I have been using it for a while and I'm thinking of getting, because both of them are preety good phones and honestly is the extra gig of ram really going to make a difference while playing a game or making a call, or browsing the web, I don't think so , the and there both are going to be using 4g lte so I have a week to decide and I ask on xda because I actually value your opinion
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
Get the SG3, read though the One X forum, so many defects!

Definitely the Galaxy S3 is way better.

Yeah Im going for the s3, and so far I'm seeing the s3 has better android delevopement so that's another win
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] option94:
I love when people ask these questions in a device specific forum. Lol. Obviously we all chose the s3,so our opinion is gonna lean that way.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sarni84:
Haha very true. The guy just needs to compare specs and what he likes about both phones. Remember its not going to matter what we told u because ultimately u could go for a totally different phone after seeing these two in person u might hate them. Anyways i think the besr way to go about this is to go to store and play with both phones for 20 minutes and go through all the settings. I think this is the best way to see which one u like the best
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] option94:
+1 then only thing that matted, especially when comparing two very high end devices, is your own opinion.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yotorogo:
I have gone tried out both phones and I like the s3 better, and the s3 has better specs, heck its better than my current computer. I think my only probable will be using it in the sunlight but otherwise I like it. I even like touchwize and the s3 has more developers so that's a win. So far the s3 comustom kernels can get you to 1.9 Ghz while hox custom kernel can get you 1.8, not that bog of a difference but I want the faster phone and the s3 wins, plus I need lots of storage and no expandable storage is another reason why the s3 is better
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] option94:
Then we'll be glad tobhabr you around here long term. Congrats.
