Ok, I have the dock now, and wanted to update everyone on this. Audio quality is good, better than bluetooth, but an ever so slight downgrade from just plugging straight into the headphone with an audio cable, but it's certainly good enough.

The one thing that is annoying enough to prevent me from using it is that there is an audible click between each song. I haven't a clue how to get rid of this!! ARGHH!!! I haven't tested the dock with video or pandora output to see if the clicks persist, but as of right now, it's a bit annoying on a long trip. Otherwise, this would work really nicely, and is a pretty cheap fix for $18, not to mention getting a fully functional windshield/dash mount to use your phone as a GPS with.

Hoping my new ROM I installed might solve the audio issue. It has a custom kernel, and possibly improved car dock compatibility. We shall see...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] misterpat1975:
Hello everyone!

I just upgraded to the SIII from my Droid 4 and am having this same issue. Does anyone have a fix? It seems silly to have to buy additional items to get it to work when it worked fine on other phones.

I like the stock ROM, but will flash if necessary to get this to work, as its very distracting while driving.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ytsejamer1:
SoundAbout Pro is an app that will override Samsung's stupidity when it comes to BT/AuxJack audio routing. Well worth the price of admission.

Hi,

I am looking for recommendations for a simple profile app that will trigger Airplane Mode when both of the following conditions are met:

If my battery runs down to 35% AND it is between 12:00pm and 06:00am then it will switch on Airplane mode.

On occasion I have woken up to a flat battery and late for work because during the night the signal is lost so the phone chews up battery looking for a signal. I know from experience that switching on airplane mode saves a tonne of battery, I figure if I can set the above conditions then at least I can have some battery left in the morning for my alarm to go off.

Cheers

If you want tons of features and a super powerful app... Get 'tasker'

If you want one easy to use... With a few less features... Get 'llama'

If you want the one i haven't tried.... Get 'automateit'
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DreamPCs:
Also juice defender could be an option for you. When using the default profile it automatically disables your data connection when the phone is on standby (among other features). It sounds to me that this will solve your problem because it won't be looking for a connection while on standby.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lonehunter65:
All suggestion have been good so far. Tasker really is your best bet if you don't mind losing 6 bucks. Extremely useful app!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] XRCIST:
Thanks for the replies, I'll give tasker a shot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] supguise:
Did a search for this and only saw it posted in the nexus 7 area but this also works on our rooted galaxy nexus'. You can enable it without the need for a separate app by navigating to the build prop file in system and adding this line at the bottom and then reboot:

launcher.force_enable_rotation=true
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GuestK00426:
Thanks bro!Now I just need to find a way to make the lock screen auto-rotate .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zealotic:
Worked like a charm.

Thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cilraaz:
Great find. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Il_Tene:
Great tip, but does it work only with stock launcher?

I'm running nova launcher and I'd love this feature. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] supguise:
Not sure, give it a try n let us know!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Il_Tene:
Sorry, I have not explained. I've already tried with nova and it doesn't work so i was asking if there is some method to make it work. :)

EDIT: I'm a real noob. I can do it from nova settings LoL

Nova Settings> Appearance> Screen Orientation> Auto Rotate
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gorjess:
Worked like a charm.. Only issue i noticed is when its on landscape its no longer butter :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schumici:
thanks for this :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Agosh13:
Or you can type in ADB (after root) or in a shell (like terminal emulator):

echo "launcher.force_enable_rotation=true" >> /system/build.prop

If you want to go back:

sed -i 's/launcher.force_enable_rotation=true//g' build.prop

I know that is a old thread but if find it on google!

Auto Rotate Screen Verizon Galaxy Nexus

ADB? OK, I'll admit I am a noob to the max. Just got into this. I am using a Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I installed MMuzzy's Jellybean and now the home screens don't rotate to landscape. Which is what my phone is in 90% of the time since I use it for Navigation. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alkemist80:
Just rooted my N7 today and works great. Beautiful widgets loves to bug out when apps go into landscape mode and this helps fix it when I can rotate the home screen. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danfalcas:
YEAH!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbolot1:
Thank you. Is there a similar command for dialer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alkemist80:
4.1.2 update fixes this now. Glad google is listening to opinions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] garpunkal:
I don't think homescreen rotation works on the Galaxy Nexus after 4.1.2 :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is only for the Nexus 7.

It still does not auto-rotate for the Galaxy Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mahakala05:
Works fine

Works perfectly in 4.1.2.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DougTheModder:
I don't know why, but I'm not able to save the changes made on the build.prop file.

I'm rooted, using RootExplorer, mounted as R/W, open the file in text editor, then save and exit. When I re-open the file, none of the changes seem to be there, is like they are not saved or the file is immediately re-generated.

Anyone has a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 063_XOBX:
Did you make sure it had su permissions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DougTheModder:
Yes, sure, just doublechecked! ;)

I'm not new to the Android world, previously I had a Sony Ericsson X8 where I made all the possible mods, but in this case I really don't get what isn't working...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrone:
thanks for the tips, but quick question, will doing this break OTA update installation?

Edit:

Nevermind, it got sorted out on efrant's thread that this will break OTA update. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lsv-1:
This trick doesn't work on 4.2, in case someone needs it in 4.2, there's an app called Rotation Lock (Adaptive) it's free and you can get it from the play store (just select the force auto option).

I'm on Yakju, JellyBean 4.1.2, and have not hacked the phone or anything. But all of a sudden one day, the home screen started to auto-rotate to landscape, even when I did not have auto rotate screen on. (screenshot attached)

Has this ever happened to anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andybones:
can do this in framework-res.apk

res/values/bools.xml
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Poofster:
Does this work on the Galaxy S4 for anyone? Not working for me..just wondering
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
I think Samsung simply decided not to include landscape mode at all in their non-QWERTY TouchWiz phones. If you badly want to see how it is, use Ultimate Rotation Control to force it in landscape. You'll most probably notice that visual elements are out of place.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Young War:
Not sure if this has been answered already (maybe I'm bad at searching) or if it has to do with the Flash Counter, but anyone know how to get rid of the Custom Lock icon that appears on the boot up screen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nosympathy:
Yep been answered before.

You get it when you flash a non 100% original Odin package. So like route 66.

To make it go away you have to flash the completely stock Samsung image and do the non Odin root in the dev section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Young War:
Thank you. Is there currently any known reasons if this should cause concern? I should be good with leaving it as is atm, right?

Hoping eventually there's a flashable zip to clear that...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wpbear:
It also happens if you do the non ODIN root and then you freeze or remove systems apps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrostic:
Will the USB Jig from the SGS2 do anything for this Device?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
Not sure but from what I have read it doesn't appear to be compatible. Pins are in different places.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] &roid:
Yes. The jig from the s2 works and will reset the counter and eliminate the lock image.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lowg:
It does not ... if you disable the SysScope.apk immediately after rooting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AdamHLG:
I like the unlock custom display. Shows that I am enjoying my custom phone!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] &roid:
+1 I love your comment. Unless bringing in for warranty, who cares.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Josolanes:
^ this!

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wpbear:
Can you go into more detail? Wouldn't you have to boot after root, so can disable SysScope be done anytime? What other uses did SysScope have?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lowg:
If you use the "debugfs" exploit, once you obtain root, the first thing you should do is rename /system/app/SysScope.apk and you should be good.

My method was based off analysis done by Ralekdev, which according to him there is a process scanner as part of SysScope.apk that will look for apps running as root outside a list of 'whitelisted' apps.

To your question, yes it is a bit of what came first the chicken or the egg -- but I'm assuming this process scanner is not constantly running so if you just do it right away before running other apps as super user regularly there is little chance it will be tripped.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
I used the odin way to root my device and the GPS does not work so I received my CLN device and need to get rid of the custom boot. Is there any other way to get rid of it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ilkevinli:
Custom recoveries are what triggers the unlock icon. If you flash the stock recovery, the unlock icon should disappear.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] &roid:
There are actually other ways to get the padlock notification than custom recoveries. I've got it from modifying my framework-res.apk file, and you can get it from deleting and modifying system apps, changing ROMS through Odin and so on. It's really not a big deal unless you need to clear it for warranty related purposes. If you do, follow the guide on development, or get a jig for 3 bucks on ebay.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] graymonkey44:
I just followed the guide in the development sections. Everything is A-OK and I'm ready to send back in the old one. The CLN device seems to be in pretty good shape.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lowg:
For what it's worth I flashed TWRP using dd and did not trip the counter after disabling the apk (and shared lib it uses to be sure).

As most of you may know the SGS3 had issues with phones that had lost their IMEI. About two weeks ago I released a method to backup and restore the NV Data as well as to inject the missing IMEI back into a phone that had no backup created. Unfortunately these phones that injected their IMEI were unable to get more than 2g network access. I have since added a custom app to my solution that has been confirmed to restore 4G connectivity to phones that lost their IMEI and injected their IMEI back onto their phones!

If you have not backed up your NV Data and your phone is working fine please do so to ensure your IMEI is safe by following this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801997

Thank you to the community for their support in helping resolve this issue!!

-Added new custom app for fixing data issue after imei injection!!!!

-Added support for TMobile, Telus, Rogers, and Bell users!

-T-Mobile binaries have been updated in custom app and full data restore after IMEI injection has been confirmed :)

How do we back up the IMEI?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] <:GeeK:>:
I was able to restore a Verizon sgs3's meid, IMSI, calls, text and full data today from a full loss, without any backup. It was not simple and I don't like to post solutions unless they are clean, simple and to the point so I'm not going to put anything out yet. But, there is hope people. :)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Deleted member 2371530:
Huge thanks for this... I have a question I made a backup using both this tool and the simple one, let say God forbid I was to loose my imei, I would then restore it and get my imei back but will I get 4G? If not is the new app supposed to help me get 4G back or is the app for people who didn't have a backup and injected there imei back, sorry if this is a stupid question
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Peoplearmy:
Restoring a backup will restore your phone to functional form including 4G. The custom app is used for people who lost IMEI but did not have a backup created. Since you have both backup methods then you should be ok. Hope that answers your question =)

DX
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Deleted member 2371530:
Yes exactly the answer I needed
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Peoplearmy:
T-Mobile phones fully supported now! Confirmed data restore after injecting missing IMEI!!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Peoplearmy:
I will be releasing a new version of my custom app soon that will allow us to backup/restore/inject IMEI/restore 4G/Roaming all in one app without having to open QPST.

It will make life easier and will have the intelligence to identify if your phone is having IMEI issues when you connect your phone and recommend a fix option for you (IMEI injection or 4G/Roaming restore)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IRIE4IPIER:
I hope this is any day now, I lost my IMEI and didn't have a backup. I saw the other thread geek made and pushed my IMEI back to the phones, but my data connection is still inconstant and very slow while connected, it will say 3G but EDGE:2 in the settings. So this update you are talking about will restore my 4G huh? Can't wait because I am so ready to calling T-Mobile for a replacement.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Peoplearmy:
I am guessing a lot of T-Mobile users did not see my original post about resolving the IMEI issue.

The data issue is also covered in my original thread as well as how to backup/restore the NV Data and how to do an IMEI injection.

The data issue for your T-Mobile phone is already supported. Please pass the word around as I believe there are many who are stuck in your situation without even knowing that a solution had already been developed and released. =/

You can find a link to my original solution in my signature.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IRIE4IPIER:
Unfortunately this didn't work. I will flash back to stock. If that don't work I will retry the steps again. Either way I'm gonna order a warranty replacement. I haven't found a thread to reset the flash counter. Are you aware of one for tmo?

i9300 is not compatible

sorry the i9300 is not compatible the only way to fix the imei, or nvdata is to send it in for a jtag service, most if not all jtag service providers will not change or "Correct" your imei they will restore your nv data and would restore your imei if it is in some way changed and does not match that of the one on the sticker of your device, but they will not change it to an imei you have chosen, as it is against the law to change the imei of a device in most countries. in the U.S. it is not against the law as long as you own the "loaner" device and keep it locked away until you get rid of both devices. the i9300 uses a different chipset than the other variants i.e. the T999L uses the Qualcomm S4 chipset while the i9300 is not a Qualcomm device, you can purchase a software called Z3X which is a software interface for a Jtag or riffbox but you would still need to purchase those as well,the total cost of a jtag, riffbox and the Z3X software would cost you more than a new device, you may check and see if you can find a jtag service locally, and ask your related questions to them as they will know alot better than i what their policies are, or you can try to flash back to stock and see if that corrects your imei although it most likely won't. all in all, you may as well buy a new or i9300 or a gently used one from swappa, you can get a great deal and it will be verified through swappa that the device has not been blacklisted. i.e. reported lost or stolen.

also depending on the method you used to look at your imei if you pulled the nvdata and looked at it in a notepad or word editor it will not display it correctly as there is a coded offset for your imei and almost all imei's will show with two 00 at the begining because of the offset if you looked at in in your settings then you may want to notify the rom developer that your imei was changed, they may have accidentally overlooked removing that info from their build and are now distributing thier imei publicly. although its not likely.

sorry for the bad news,but now you know exactly what your options are.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Sorry I didn't reply sooner, typed this up but never hit send! Anyway, in case you haven't found an answer yet....

I have tried numerous times to make this work on the International I9300/9305 models, but never got it to work.

I am sure there's a way to do it, just not with this method or the tools I have. (There may be a way to get one or two to work right, but I'm unaware of it).

The best I can say right now is to go to the thread below and see if it'll help. I have no idea if it will, but maybe there are others there that will know. Or the OP may know something more than I do.

If you do find a fix, please let me know. I'd like to be able to at least tell others where to go if I can't help directly. Sorry I'm not able to do more for you. Here's the thread:
