[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
Thanks!

I'm an ATGATT guy... All The Gear All The Time

I would have easily had a broken leg and ankle if it wasn't for my boots.

My leg is still swollen 3 weeks later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ooxteme:
Ill take swollen over broke or even dead any day again glad your allright!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayabusa1300cc:
damn that sucks big time. I used motorcycles as my daily driver for about 8 years straight. And definitely had my fair share of wrecks.

Some of them I am surprised it wasn't ALOT worse. glad you made it out alright. good thing is, you get to replace with new shiny aftermarket parts =]

every time i went down, I made sure I bounced back twice as hard. Had 2 custom paint jobs and other goodies
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
They totaled her out and hauled her off.

I still have a 91 CB750 Nighthawk to get me to work. I'm going to upgrade the suspension and use that for mountain runs for the rest of this season. This winter or spring I hope to pick up a 2012 Ninja 1000 with ABS. ABS would have saved me in this instance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidGnome:
Glad your ok.. but two things come to mind...

1) if the wreck was not your fault.. you might be able to get the other guys insurance (or even your own if you're claiming) to pay the deductible on the phone.. After all they'd pay for contents of a car to a reasonable amount, no reason why a cycle shouldn't get the same treatment.

2) Next time if you suspect the phone is only water damaged (no cracks , dents etc..) you can save yourself the deductible in many cases.

There's a great little trick you can do to dry out the phone in 1-2 days and usually make it good as new.

1) Place the phone in a plastic baggie, doesn't matter what kind.. you're going to leave the end open.

2) Place about 1 cup of dry instant white rice in a 2nd plastic baggie, this one must be able to seal shut.

3) Place your phone, in bag 1, inside the bag with the rice. (The bag 1 is so rice particles do not get into your phone). Make sure the end of bag 1 is not folded under or otherwise obstructed, you want air to get in bag 1.

4) Seal up back 2, so you now have a bag of rice, with another bag with phone inside it.

5) Place the bag in as much direct sunlight as possible.. such as on a window sill and wait :)

Over time, the moisture in the phone will be drawn into the rice. Typically this can take between 24 and 72 hours depending on level of moisture.

I have used this trick myself when my Evo 4G got drenched in water, as a coffee pot full of water exploded over top it :( I called Assurion paid the deductable and waited.. however they were OUT of my phone and it took them almost 7 days to get a new one shipped out overnight. I was so pissed (epecially knowing any store near me had them in stock) that i started looking online and found this trick... tried it and my original phone was working once again perfectly before the Assurion one arrived. Unfortunately once you make a claim you cannot cancel it, so I did end up sending mine back and keeping the 'new' one.

Anyway.. glad your OK.. maybe invest in one of those waterproof, crash proof cases/boxes for you to keep your phone in on the bike :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jaidlion:
I'm sorry to hear about your bike :( if there's anything I can assist with.. let me know I know some good mechanics and repair engineers
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] peanut1596:
Yeah it's great that you survived. You could really have become "soupskin."

:p

Too soon?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] elephant007:
You broke your phone? Bummer

Oh yeah, phone was the last thing I'm sure you were worried about was the phone although you did try to make a call for help

I have a total of four phones on my account, two months ago I made a claim and was able to bill the deductible to my Sprint account... a month later I made another claim on a different phone and I was unable to bill it to my Sprint account. I was told by Assurion and Sprint that they don't allow it to be bill to Sprint. I asked how long as the policy been in affect and they said for a year. I quickly called BS on it because I did it last month!

Anyway, glad you're doing good and that bodily injury was limited as much as it was...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
Asurion has stated that due to demand they are setting a time frame of 1-3 business day to send me a replacement phone. Not shipping today and me having it tomorrow as previously stated.

On the bright side, hope this means I'll be getting new instead of refurb.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
Got my replacement device today. It's new in a sealed box.

Overall, I give the process a thumbs up. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] QWIKSTRIKE:
Well how is it working for you....does it work like new? I cracked my screen and want a repair so I won't chance getting a refurbed phone.lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] il buono:
I got my replacement almost 2 weeks ago and can assure you it's new. Order it now while you can cause this will more than likely change soon as more devices get turned in.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Damnjones:
I have a warranty phone I need to send back and I am having issues unrooting and getting s-on.

I have tried the 1.) gfree method

2.) Restore PD15IMG.zip ver 2.3.4

3.) unroot.sh unattended method

4.) unlock root unroot option

I am running out of things to try I can get the phone to an unrooted state and version 2.3.4 but not s-off or locked.

Any ideas to try?

Thanks

Damn
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] critter200:
I recently had to send a phone back as well and found it easiest to use the PD15IMG froyo version. I installed visionary to gain temp root privileges and gained s-on by doing the following:

adb push gfree /data/local

adb shell

su

cd /data/local

chmod 777 gfree

./gfree --secu_flag on

Once that was all done I upgraded it to the stock gingerbread rom and sent it back in. I don't have the PD15IMG file anymore but I know it's out there if you search for it. Hope this helps!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Damnjones:
Critter you have made my life much easier with that one little flag.

Thanks for the help
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
So guys, I was running some sunspiders on my phone and tablet today and I noticed something strange. The firefox beta scores were some 800 ms lower than the stock browser; chrome was about 200 ms better than firefox. On my phone, they all get within a 200 ms range of each other. Does anyone know why this is happening or if this is somehow related to the IO problems everyone has been complaining about?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Einride:
The three browsers use different Javascript engines, so results will be quite different. Different hardware will of course make an impact here as well. While the test is mainly done in memory, poor I/O can make an impact in the case of the TF700. Anand's test of the NAND performance with the Nexus 7 showed this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nonstop14:
Has anyone purchased a smart cover for their Infinity? Like something comparable to an iPad smart cover? I'd prefer something like that over a keyboard dock or sleeve type protection. Curious what's out there. Looks like Asus made some for older models but they are reviewed unfavorably.
[Asus Transformer TF700] almo40192:
I just bought this, and if im not happy with it i will for sure be getting my money back because the description and pictures are all over the place lol. Theres too many things to point out, but its only ten dollars so why not take the risk. Seems pretty cool if it checks out right

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ASUS-Transf...ccessories&hash=item3a77bf690d#ht_7682wt_1270
[Asus Transformer TF700] DarsVaeda:
There is the official smart cover by Asus called TranSleeve.

But there is a report here somewhere it doesn't fit well and you have to tweak it a little too have it perfectly fit.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
I don't think there is a smartcover for infinity, and i am afraid there never will be!

You see, smart cover means that when you "open" it, the screen turns on (iPad, Nexus7), becuase there is a magnet in the chasis of the pad that makes that possible. Haven't tried applying a magnet on infinity, but i don't think there is one...

So, sorry about that. transsleeve maybe looks like smart cover, but it is pretty stupid if you ask me :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] nonstop14:
TranSleeve is what I'm looking for. Just light protection for the screen when I set it down and a stand when in use. Has anyone tried it with the TF700? The reviews are mixed from TF201 users, some love it some don't.

Also, anyone try waiving a magnet around this thing yet? If they eventually came out with one that could trigger the screen like an iPad that would be ideal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
Apple already patented magnets so we can't have them
[Asus Transformer TF700] thephreak99:
And touch displays..

I have the transleeve, and it's a perfect fit. I read somewhere that it made marks on the side of the tablet, but on mine there is small rubber patches on. So I guess they have fixed that problem.
[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
Nexus 7 has magnet. I had hoped Infinity had one as well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
where did you order it from? Are you still enjoying it? Does it have holes for all of the ports?

last question, how is it with and without the dock attached?
[Asus Transformer TF700] DarsVaeda:
Yes please tell a bit about it, maybe take some photos.

I think about buying it but it is nowhere in store so I could look at it.

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Actually, there is a software solution to this - an app called Power Switch, actually developed my your countrymen :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] suunnittelija:
I have TF201 TranSleeve on my TF700 and it fits perfectly. No need to do any tweaks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
TranSleeve is OK, but after little pressure applied it leaves traces on the screen (looks like rubber, although it's just synthetic).
[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
I noticed that the iPad smartcover does that too. There are three horizontal lines on the screen.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
So far my favourite cover / screen protection is the dock itself.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
Do you just keep it on the whole time?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Rarely. I don't need it when not carrying it outside the house.

But as I've said somewhere here already, I'm on holiday in the woods, so it doesn't count ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
I'm thinking the same. But I'd like to get a cover for while at home. I'm going to get real sleeve to carry all of it when I leave the house so I can put it in my backpack without worrying about it getting messed up. I'd love a sleeve with 3DO in it but no one makes those.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
I got the Transleeve Dual yesterday and to be honest I don't like it at all. It feels nice in the hand but that is just about the only compliment I can give it.

The case just ruins the elegance of the tablet which I find surprising since it is an Asus product.

[Asus Transformer TF700] mouse100:
High guys. I asked Asus support if transleeve was compatibile with tf700 but they answered me it isn't. Why according to you?

I can also post their answer but it's in italian..
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
A few users (myself included) have already confirmed here the TranSleeve originally meant for the Prime is working just fine with the Infinity (I don't like it enough to carry it all the time though, I prefer to be docked with a neoprene etui on it).
[Asus Transformer TF700] mouse100:
I know because I've read this topic entirely and I'll buy that cover. So I don't understand their answer.. Do they think cover can damage glass maybe? I don't know.. :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Nah, there are some mid-trained monkeys in the support. They have info saying the cover was developed for the Prime and they don't want to get into trouble (+ maybe they want to advertise the new product, which is TranSleeve Dual?). It fits fine. Just don't try any tricks with jumping while holding the cover only, as the device will likely fall out ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] mouse100:
Hahahaha thanks! I hope I'll find this product somewhere.

I don't like transleeve dual :rolleyes:
[Asus Transformer TF700] BeverageNinja:
ASUS also said on their website that the TF201 keyboard docking station wasn't compatible with the TF700. We know that's not true. So it stands to reason that some people will take everything ASUS or their support staff say with a grain of salt.
[Asus Transformer TF700] atamig:
Bumper available?

Hallo,

i search a rubber bumper for the TF700. Is this available?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I had a transleeve on my TF201 and it fits perfectly on my new TF700. Ignore what Asus say.

It really is the best case I have found for the prime or the infinity.
[Asus Transformer TF700] raffstyle:
Hmmm so i can buy those transleeve on ebay for tf201 which is cheaper compared to tf700 transleeve on other online store. THANKS!

I really want something for the back and corners of my tf700 just like those hard plastic for ipad.. so then i can use a transleeve for front.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Serpico.:
I have the TranSleeve originally meant for the Prime (for my Infinity), and it appears to fit (dimensions) and the tabs click into the slots. HOWEVER: it does not stay on very well. It easily "pops off". So often that I have stopped using it altogether. When holding the device with the TranSleeve on it is very possibly for it to come off causing the user to drop the tablet. It also kind of "flops" around while on the device.

Also - it seems to easily "pop off" of the Infinity when folding the origami stand. Overall I don't suggest using it. Maybe mine is defective?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sounds defective to me. Mine has never popped off.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Serpico.:
Yeah the springs on the tabs of the cover just don't seem to have enough tension to keep mine in place.
[Asus Transformer TF700] whholder:
mine was tight on Prime. Warranty replaced the prime with the Infiinty and although the tabs of the sleeve fit, they do not latch. Using the sleeve was almost a $500 mistake as the pad slipped out of sleeve.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gbonato:
Hey, thanks suunnittelija. This was exactly the information I was looking for. The problem now is to find a shop here in Brazil selling this Transleeve. Ordering international may be an option, but import taxes can be nasty, without mentioning that one never knows if it will be delivered.

Hi,

I have the galaxy nexus HSPA version with 4.1.1 and due to my Corp email security settings I no longer have the circle unlock option.

Major issue is that the phone sits in my pocket and even a small press of the volume or power button within the 10 minute timeout will cause a flurry of action while still in my pocket.

Anyone have this same issue and found a solution?

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Danno5150:
Im having trouble rooting the tab. I read somewhere that the root isnt always successful when on 4.0.4, which is my problem at the moment
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bibicp:
You don't need to downgrade to 4.0.3, I have rooted my device using a root method for the 4.0.4 version, it works fine, check this link if you need help rooting it: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25228-how-to-rooting-gt-p3113-step-by-step-updated-07182012/

(if you have 4.0.4, you either have the UEBLG2 or UEBLG5 firmware, check the about device menu in the settings to make sure)

But, if you still want to flash the 4.0.3 version, google the old firmware version, download it and flash it via Odin.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] kelleerc:
I had the same problem and could not get root to work on 4.0.4. I ended up doing an Odin to 4.0.3 and then root worked with no problems. Before that I think I tried like six times and finally boot looped the thing.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] slaxer:
How to downgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.0.3 stock rom to be exactly? Just download stock 4.0.3 and flash it with Odin just like you would upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4? I would like also downgrade my p3100 to 4.0.3 so I could root using adb shell. Please confirm the working method of downgrading firmware.

Hi,

Has anyone found a way to force our phones to roam without rooting? I have bad Verizon service at my apartment but good At&t. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] McDastardly:
Or even if rooted?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] McDastardly:
Anyone heard anything yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Beemer533:
You do realize that you can't' "roam" from ATT to VZW and vice versa?

ATT uses GSM technology while VZW uses CDMA. ATT has its own SIM card that will not work with VZW and VZW has its own as well.

There is a thread around here about using the VZW SGS3 with international GSM roaming, this requires you to have another cell provider's SIM, so you get a different number. I don't think this would work with ATT as they use different GSM frequencies from the rest of the world.

I don't even think the VZW SGS3 has the correct radio to work with ATT....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] McDastardly:
I guess I should mention that Altel got bought out by AT&T here and I used to be able roam on their towers using the app Roam Control. But sadly it doesn't work with the S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Beemer533:
I did find another thread after I responded to you initially: While I am correct about not being able to roam between the 2 networks, you can apparently "switch" to using one or the other... so you would have to swap SIM cards to do this.

Although at the moment, I don't think 3G data is working...

Trying to do IMEI injection, unsuccessfully:

I have followed every step in this instruction guide thoroughly, however my IMEI is still not being restored. I currently have a partially corrupted IMEI (the last two digits in the 15 digit string are wrong). After I hit Write NV, it seems as if nothing happens, and upon rebooting, my IMEI is still two digits off from what it is supposed to be. Could anyone PLEASE provide any insight on this issue? Thank you so much

EDIT: Upon closer examination, as soon as i close the RF NV Memory Manager and re-open it and re-read the values from my phone, the old, partially corrupted IMEI returns.. not sure what to do. It seems as if the values just aren't sticking, no matter how many times I try to Write the NVs.

Also, if this helps at all, I have service and my screen does show a 4G icon; I can send and receive text messages, send and receive Google Talk messages, but I cannot load any web pages at all or use Google Search or go on Play Store/etc. This may lead me to believe that since my IMEI is only very slightly corrupted (with the last two digits being off), I still have some functionality of my phone, although not all of it.

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

For the average person to do this would require that they purchase a z3x dongle box for samsung phones as well as purchase the activation for samsung phones from z3x.
