I'm not a tin foil or anything but I've been using Wallet for a while now and enjoying it. I've topped up my Prepaid card several times without a hitch but today it's asking for my SSN. Anybody encounter this? I don't feel comfortable putting my SSN in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
Weird, why would thet need that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
I have no clue. :/ I've been searching around and most answers are that there is some new U.S. federal law that prepaid cards need social security card or something. Another one I saw was that once you cross the $100 mark in adding funds, they ask for SSN. I still don't feel okay with it. If it was the last 4 digits then I would do it. But the WHOLE NINE digits?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adiktivedrumz:
Is it asking through the app? I had to send in a copy of my id and a copy of a bill showing my address to the wallet Site. It was for security so they say.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
Yes, through the app? Wow. They really asked you to do that? Damn.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xHausx:
Thread moved to Q&A

In the US there's some law now that says they must verify your identity to prevent money from being laundered and what not, but IIRC it's also illegal for someone (other than a government agency) to say you must give them your SSN. I wouldn't do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luminiz:
The phone gets super hot around the rear camera area. Im using battery monitor widget and it drains about 30%/per hour which is crazy. This only happens when I play games like angry birds or osmos. Am I running too many apps in the background? I just wiped battery stats and let it drain to 0 and charged it full back to 100.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stud beefpile:
I was having the same issue which prompted me to look into ways to keep it from happening. I've tried a few different kernels and various undervolting / over clocking settings.

The majorly discernable change for me came with trying Jame Bond kernel v3.4 ( I think ), which is by default a battery saver on my device and by association keeps my device from getting so hot.

Look into conserving as much battery as you can. Toggle LTE and GPS off before you play a game, stop syncing in the background too. All that little stuff seems to add up quickly for me.

Turn 3G off when you game. It makes the phone heat like crazy for me and makes my battery life suck.

I've noticed jellybean has reduced the heat from under the camera while gaming. On ICS it used to be really hot now its warm but not hot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] discipletech:
Do you have hotmail?

I faced the same problem and especially when i played games. Also it was a new development which i noticed almost 2 weeks back. After much research I checked my phone status and battery status and found the culprit to be the "hotmail app" which i had installed after the launch of outlook.com. Battery status showed it to be eating 40% of batter power. I realized the CPU hot issue and the choppy games issue surfaced after i had installed hotmail.

Now I have removed hotmail app and everything is back to normal. Do let me know if you have hotmail app. If not then there is something running in the background that's eating a lot of power and memory in the background.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cholerabob:
OK i had a Sony Xperia ARC and was really fed up with the 1 successful on15 tries connection to PC, so i said to myself " Self, it's time to switch phones " and went and got me a brand spanking new GS3 . Get home, all happy, plug in the phone and guess what ? F&*(*& no connections, fraking USB/ADB/MTP drivers not installing, failing and all that s*&@.

Tried re-installing drivers, Allshare, Kies, even tried Samsung G3 Toolkit , nothing works. Phone will not connect through USB cable.

I am about to return this Android bulls*&$ and goback to an iPhone , i really don't wnat to but , at LEAST they are able to connect to computer.....

Can anyone help ?

I am with Rogers, ver 4.0.4, SGH-I747M

:eek:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Primary advice: Sell the S3 and purchase iPhone (recommended).

Optional advice:

-Uninstall any unnecessary Android phones drivers. Including Sony drivers.

-Reboot computer.

-Download and install Samsung USB driver: http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...le_T999_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe

-Connect phone using Samsung USB cable that came with it.

-Transfer file.

*Tips: If connected to a low powered USB jack, use a powered USB hub. Avoid using cheap USB cables.

Other: ADB and MTP are two different things.

Bonus points: Drag and drop a single photo or music file to iPhone using Windows Explorer without requiring iTunes, then view/playback file on iPhone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Malandro2011:
Maybe the problem is your computer and not the phones...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZDroidDev:
First off,

What type of computer are you using? I'm guessing PC, so what version of windows? Win Vista and above should automatically pull the drivers from the internet for MTP.

Have you checked the usb port to make sure it is not faulty? do other devices work fine through that port?

If so, uninstall any android related software and reboot, then install samsung kies. If the drivers still fail to load there is something wrong on the pc.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skadebo:
One thing that's kind of bugging me is the amount of vertical resolution lost while browsing in both Chrome and Dolphin due to four things:

1. The notification area.

2. The tabs display row.

3. The URL bar.

4. The navbar.

This ends up being a couple hundred pixels out of 800. One way to mitigate this would be to have the navbar appear on the right hand side of the screen like it is on the Galaxy Nexus. I personally find this convenient for actually tapping the soft keys themselves as that is how I am used to doing it on the Nexus 7 and my thumbs don't need to make the stretch to the center of the screen.

Yay or nay to show your interest in a vertical navbar on the left.

Thanks!

After following that step by step and you have the clockworkmod recovery installed, turn your phone off hold volume up and home and press and hold power button to get to recovery screen, I would factory reset data, wipe cache/dalvik flash the Rom that you want flash the kernel for that Rom and reboot.

What's a rom that has good battery life and speed? Also need stability but understand there will be bugs on most roms. I hate the laggy ness on stock.

[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
My understanding is (and Im stupid) 4G is lost when you unlock but if you dont have it anyway, why care? 3G is a joke and i rarely use it!

[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Assuming you are still on 2.3.4 and not 2.3.5 you can use mofs rom. Its generally a stock rom but you'll get 1080p camera, some bug fixes, notification bar toggles and much less lag. You'll just need to root, install bootstrap recovery, and flash it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] .cruiser:
Ever since updating to 2.3.5 I've noticed battery life that's better than ever. And the lag can be rid off of simply by choosing a different launcher from Blur. Like Go or ADW. IMO.

I am actually on 2.3.5 and I put go launcher on last night. So far it's cool, better than stock blur. I was hoping there'd be a decent rom out but I understand having locked boot loaders really sucks. Thanks for all the helpful replies!! I really appreciate it!!

Hi. My name is Ari and I'm a alcoholic.

Just kidding, but seriously.

Ok here is the deal, like my tittle states I am looking for a reasonable tablet for my son. I will not state his age whereas he is extremely too young for such device, but his mother (my ex), yes I am single PM for details, have agreed it may be a good idea to buy one.

Reasons why we are considering;

To enhance his learning abilities, play learning games, and she questioned if there was something out there we could possibly use as a movie viewer while on longer then normal car rides.

Now I know there are probably 107 threads just like this but i felt the need to make a new one. I would really like all opinions so I can better gauge my research before making a purchase.

Clearly an iPad would be a good choice but lets face it folks, I'm not wiping my ass with money.

Any help, kind words and inquires about dating would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.
