[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] EnderXXI:
I use a brightness widget and keep it at 25% most of the time. Lasts almost all day if I am not playing games.

Outside and when showing it off 100%.

At night (when the wife is sleeping) 0% is too bright. That's my only complaint.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NuclearEMP:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bisquick24:
Played with the SGS3 in the Verizon store...I used the settings app to turn the brightness up to Max and compared to my nexus..I noticed the nexus was brighter? Can anyone else confirm this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlexDeGruven:
I don't know how you can stand looking at the screen on full brightness. For me, even back to my Fascinate, the SAMOLED(+)(HD) screens have been painfully bright (I get haloing on the white areas in particular) at 100%.

Also: SAMOLED(+)(HD) screens are artificially limited to 200nits to preserve the tiny little LEDs that make up the screen. They're actually capable of MUCH brighter, but that drastically reduces their lifetime/consistency.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] enohand:
i made a tasker task, that chages brightness to my needs.

typically if im plugged in (AC or USB) its full bright & never turns off....great stuff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rushless:
You must have a setting or something else going on, since it is plenty bright even at 50% and silly bright at 100%.

The first demo at a local VZW had a brightness issue as well, but they corrected it, or replaced it. Can't remember. Even at 100%, it was too dim.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hesh.monster:
I don't ever remember reading anything about "tiny little LEDs" in my research of AMOLED technology. It is exactly what the name states, an "Active Matrix" of "Organic" compounds that respond to electrical impulses by emitting light. Sorry if I'm coming off like a **ck, not trying to, just sayin...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlexDeGruven:
I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. At what point is one element of an AMOLED screen NOT a "tiny little LED"? If you want to argue that we're not looking at discrete LEDs like you would find blinking away on the front of your computer, or even the indicator LED on the S3 and GNex, then yes, but you're pushing semantics much farther than the original point of my post, which was to note that the screen is kept at a maximum brightness that is much lower than the capabilities of the elements that make up the screen.

Ok here's the problem

My brother's GS2 is on stock gingerbread, just rooted. For a long time over 4 months it worked fine. Just randomly since 2 days if u turn it on it keeps buzzing. It might turn on go through the splash screen but halfway through it will buzz again. If i hold any buttons it might go into odin mode or cwm but just restart by itself after. Anyone have any suggestions how to fix this? I can't afford another phone.

Also if I put the battery in the phone buzzes and starts to boot itself without me pushing the power button. I tried taking the board out. Took some alcohol and cleaned up the power button and charging port. Let it dry for a few hours then plugged everything back together and its still doing the same thing. Power button seems like a tight solder so i dont want to mess with it unless I absolutely need to

Anyone know of a version, or a solution for getting the swype keyboard to shrink down to a manageable size? once in a while, mine will come up in a nice small size, but most of the time it is full width (in portrait), making it laborious to swipe across the keyboard quickly.

I love Swype but I won't be getting my N7 until next week, a month after I preordered.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
Swype automatically scales to the screen it is being used on. If you know your way around an apk it might be possible to hack it to stick to a smaller screen size. But that could get complicated...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmka:
A post on Swype forums titled "Does this beta work on Nexus 7?" suggests that changing dpi to 160 should give the tablet version. Those screenshots are with the new 1.x Swype though, not sure about 3.x. I'd give the link, but I'm a new poster.

I'm running 1.x on N7 and it's taking up about 1/4 screen height in portrait (which seems perfect for me) and 1/2 in landscape (which I don't use).

I thought the custom skins were good on gingerbread, bringing improved design and extra features, but vanilla ICS is gorgeous and I wish people wouldn't mess with it, or they could give a theme option.

[General Questions and Answers] jags_the1:
Suggest a way to distinguish them?

Why will you buy the same product if it's already available in market? You won't. So it's very necessary to add personalized touch for each manufacturer.

Think of coca-cola and Pepsi. Same basic ingredient but still different?

Before ICS "vanilla" Android wasn't very good. ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
The reason is differentiation. If two phones have exact same hardware, what would make you prefer one over the other is the skin. At least the ordinary customer.
[General Questions and Answers] Aden.JD:
ordinary people would just look at the design of the phone rather than the specs.

TeeJay might be right that before ics android was not so good.

my first experience with an android phone is with gingerbread and htc sense on top of that.

dont know what it was like before that.

but after playing with a nexus s i already made up my mind.

my next device will be a nexus.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axelTP2:
Hi everybody, I’m a newcomer to the world of Android and Samsung Note SG-N7000 and I strongly need you expert help.

Yesterday I have rooted my phone running GB 2.3.6 LA6 (non-root, non-wipe) after doing a fair share of reading (I thought), but I used a wrong way. I.o. following Dr.Ketan’s advice and downgrading to an early rootable version of GB, I have followed the method described in How to Root your Galaxy Note GT-N7000 - PC tools&Others - UC FORUM - Powered by Discuz! At http://forum.ucweb.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=27123 thinking that it is a new faster and simpler method. But I was wrong.

Although everything went OK and I had root and a functional CWM v5.8 plus AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo, I also got the yellow triangle and the counter set to 1. Later on I have discovered that CWM was not working correctly and also the screen was displaying “null” for each key typed on the keyboard.

To repair the things I have applied the semiautomatic rooting method described in OneClickRoot – ONLINE by Glevitan (many thanks to him) at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1783733 downgrading to GB2.3.5 LA4 with Odin to the 2.6.35.7....KJ1 kernel plus manual flashing of the CF kernel with CWM Manager v5.0.

Everything seems to work fine except that I still have the yellow triangle + the “null” result typing problem. I have wiped the phone and I have tryied out another 2 GB kernel, i.e the latest Abyss and Speed Mode, with the same results. Now I am back on the CF kernel with GB 2.3.5 KJ1.

This is the point where I need your expert help on how to cure the 2 above mentioned problems.

Also I have tried to flash with CWM the complete stock GB ROM 2.3.6 LA6 COA from the ext. SD card, but the installation was aborted from the beginning ("Can’t open" file on SD card). The ROM file is <GT-N7000_COA_N7000XXLA6_N7000OXXLA1_N7000XXLA4.zip> which has inside the archive 2 zipped files <N7000XXLA6_N7000OXXLA1_N7000XXLA4_HOME.tar.md5> and <SS_DL.dll>.

I suspect that there is something related to the format of the ROM archived files and I have no idea what the extension .md5 is for. I know that this is about checksum, but I have no idea on how to work with it, i.e was the download correct or not and how to get further to the .tar or zimage file. Kindly asking for your answers.

What kind of file do I need to place on the ext sd card, I thought it is a zip file for CWM and a .tar file on the PC for Odin. Am I wrong?

What do I need to do please in this stage in order to get to a fully functional rooted GB ROM with functional keyboard, no triangle plus the counter set to zero?

Any support will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

that sunds like the austalian rom, I myself have been trying to do that, yet u dont open the zip in cwm you open to extract the .tar file on your pc then flash through odin, be sure to put it in the pda section,

when you do this can you reply back and let me know if you can get past the 'factory fs' part in odin, thats where i am stuck

also when you flash the abyss ro your flash counter will go up, if you want to get rid of this let me know

For Traingle Problem use Traingle Away by Chain fire.

Now you have to flash a rooted gb rom (tar file)

Open odin.

Start your phone in Download mode.

Connect your phone to pc and wait for a minute for odin to detect it

Select file under pda tab which you have downloaded

Start flashing. Don't change any option. :D

Thank you everybody for taking the time to answer me.

I have solved my problem by using PC Odin for flashing a 3 file GB stock rom XXLC1 OXA Open Europe, which finally has brought me back to normal. Then I have flashed further the single file GT-N7000_COA_N7000XXLA6_N7000OXXLA1_N7000XXLA4.zip getting me back to the original LA6 stoc rom.

I have no idea on why this zip file did not work from the beginning, but for sure I was doing somethng wrong.

The Keyboard null was cured while flashing he new CSC file I guess.

The yellow triangle disappeared due to the stock rom flashing, while for the binary counter I have used the usb jig and the 10 steps procedure.

Now I need to root by going the correct way of Dr.Ketan, i.e. by downgrading first, no shortcuts.....:)

- Ticker widget for news and stock on lockscreen (options in Settings-Display)

- Configurable Shortcuts (Download Rom Customiser to access settings)

- Live wallpaper support on New S3 Circle lockscreen

- Missed Events

- Ripple water sound on touch

Issues still to look into:

Reports of sound only working once after first boot

If you set a custom wallpaper and use ripple the wallpaper gets stretched a bit.

For Ripple to work disable live wallpaper must also be checked!!!

The mod is for deodexed LPM and should be flashed either in CWM or with Rom Customiser. Please backup first before trying. Im not responsible for any mess you may cause! :p
