Where are you going to traveling to? There are different carriers in different regions of the USA. At&t does have prepaid plans without commitments.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krichek:
I currently use H2O Wireless, which is an MVNO for AT&T. You can pickup a sim card from any best buy and activate online in less than 10 minutes. You get unlimited voice/text and 2GB of data for $60 a month. I'm in California, not sure where you will be visiting but it works for me. I had Red Pocket when I was using my Nexus and they worked great also. Just a bit less convienant in getting a sim card.

One note tho, you will need to cut down the H2O sim to work with the S3, I found a template online and with a sharp pair of scissors was done in about 2 minutes.

Thanks for the replies - I'm on a sand, sea and theme parks visit - so it's Florida - specifically Orlando area. :cool:

I bought a SIM cutter from eBay a couple of months back (when I got my S3, because my then-current SIM was the full sized variety and I didn't want the hassle/expense of requesting a new one from the carrier)

That doesn't provide an answer. There is no existing forum which matches up with the SC-06D's hardware perfectly (the closest would probably be the AT&T variant but there is a lot of difference in the bands covered), however what traffic I've seen so far has been in the I9300 forum. Same problem exists for the korean hardware.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
In which case try the XDA phone/ model finder in the header .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domesdkg:
This turns up nothing, as there is no section for it.

A careful review of the chart in this post shows that there is no section for the Korean or Japanese models of the phone.

It would be nice if we could get a section created for the Japanese model. I'm also planning on picking on up soon, and it would be nice to have a place to discuss. Or, if we could figure out one of the other models that have compatible roms... (sadly, we can't collab to figure this out very effectively without our own section)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evildave_666:
If you want to go by closest hardware type, korean model should go in I9300 forum (this is clear because its the only other model that is Exynos) and SC-06D should go in I747 AT&T forum, but you'd get comments on every thread from smartasses telling you wrong forum.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Their is a new model forum wish list page on XDA .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evildave_666:
There is a clear historic bias from XDA admins against creating forums for models not sold in north american or european markets. Not even worth trying.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domesdkg:
Any chance you could provide a link? I did some searching and couldn't track it down. Couldn't hurt to have us all request a SC-06D forum.

That may be the case, but I'd hope that as the android community grows and globalizes they would be willing to open the site up to phones from other countries. It would expand the user base of the site - good for them right?

I lost my IMEI randomly after a reboot using CM10 and I restored it using this method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801997

The biggest problem is that after restoring the IMEI, the phone is stuck in "roaming" mode; I can still connect to VZW 4G LTE towers but I was just wondering whether or not I would get charged roaming fees? I've read that they do not charge for domestic roaming but I just wanted a little more verification before I risk getting charged a ridiculous amount.

[HTC Rezound] rezin:
is there any way at all to come up with a method of restoring an actually bricked phone...shouldnt there be a way to get the phone running again by forcing a file to flash to a certain component...i mean they have to program these phone somehow to begin with...only wondering cuz the purpose of s-on is to protect the phone from faulty or slightly defective code which could seriously damage the devices ability to boot up, but with s-off im assuming theres a way to circumvent any possible issues with the phone, of course there would have to be someway of interfacing with the phone while its inoperable...and im only assuming there are only two possible bricking situations, extremely damaged code or hardware failure...thinking back to my days with the droid x i always wondered why we never just opened the phone up and tried replacing the encrypted efuse chip/bootloader with a hacked one...just thinking outside the box, removing the fear of bricking a device would help development since we could theoretically get away with anything especially creating completely custom kernels and whatnot
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
There is a "l download" mode that you do something similar to the s-off wire trick to get into and that allows you to push something to the phone through bootloader. I have not seen anyone successfully unbrick their phone through because to get into this download mode, the phone has to have some sort of life which the phone usually does not in the cases I have seen.
[HTC Rezound] carngeX:
Chad was looking into trying to see if the phone could be used with JTAG to see if it could be unbricked, but don't think he's really found much yet.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
what if we could sort of create a software buffer that wouldnt allow code in the hboot to be corrupted? im thinking something like a pc where you have the bios and then actually boot from a second application...the hboot would remain completely free and open to run and allow modifications but you are not modifying it directly, only the applications directly under it...im assuming boot manager could be adapted for this use...in theory it would work like knoppix does with linux where linux is actually installed under knoppix and knoppix is a really basic specialized operating system built for dual booting...i believe this is the way most roms for the droid x were created by utilizing the 2nd init to bypass the official rom (rom of course being the actual iteration of the term not the custom roms we flash)...by equating the hboot of the rezound to that of a bios in a pc, im proposing a method of circumventing the code needed to actually make the phone function, to either ensure there is no possibility of bricking...of course im not too sure how the innards of the phone actually operate, im just drawing inspiration from other tech...

...also what are the chances we could just replace what ever chip the hboot is installed on in the event its ever corrupted?!?!
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Or could we somehow build a virtual machine running android including the lower level hboot. And run it on a pc that way it won't fry the phone it will just freeze the emulator
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
only if we could get android and its subsequent builds (phone and android version) emulated in the most accurate way possible...since emulating a different cpu architecture and its software is always full of bugs...im not against the idea, ive considered it and its possible but we would still need something running on the phone to ensure the phone its self is not bricked if/when the virtually conceptualized rom is ever tested on the actual handset...it would be awesome if it could be adapted for use on different platforms...
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
Only in a perfect world....
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
It's already poosible...it just hasn't been done for android to my knowledge, much less the rezound
[HTC Rezound] Squirrel1620:
Yeah I remember I used to develop home brew software for the xbox (original) and someone created a complete emulator for windows where we could test anything before flashing it to the xbox. That's why I said that for our phones it could work but I suppose it would have to be different for every phone

Hello xda'ers. :P

sadly my htc one x developed an annoying problem: overheating!

dont know if its normal but after playing a game for 5-10 minutes (thd games) the led starts

giving the overheat warning: red-green-red-green

i've heard htc said 55 degrees celsius is normal while gaming o.O,

do i need to stop gaming if it gives me the warning? or do i have warranty if my phone fails?

it doesnt hurt but i feel it burning a bit to my fingers.. :/

i think it isnt normal, more people with this problem?

if yes, we should go do something about it at htc, an premium phone should not do this!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danox82:
Hi everyone,

My Nexus 7 at present isn't getting recognised when connected to a PC via USB. This was working the other week (the drivers were installed the first time I connected it via USB), but now when I connect it to a PC via USB the device isn't recognised by the PC.

I have tried this on multiple PC's and the same thing happens on all of them, so it must be something with the Nexus 7 that is causing the problem.

If I go into Device Manager on any of the PC's, with the Nexus 7 connected via USB it doesn't appear anywhere, so I can't go down the route of even updating the USB drivers as suggested for some similar issues on other threads.

I have even installed the Android SDK and installed the Windows USB driver package, but that hasn't done the trick either.

I have also tried installing the Microsoft MTP porting kit, but again this made no difference and the same can be said by switching between MTP and PTP mode and neither have made a difference. I don't have USB debugging enabled, enabling it doesn't make a difference either.

I can connect my Nexus S phone via USB without issue to any of the PC's I've tested the Nexus 7 on, which further backs my thinking of the issue being with the Nexus 7.

I'm running out of ideas, so thought I would throw it out there to see if anyone has any other suggestions before I do a factory reset on the Nexus 7.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danox82:
Further to this I have done a factory reset, which has made no difference.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marky9074:
Try connecting it as a PTP device rather than MTP.. (that sometimes works for me when I am trying to force it to pick up the ADB device and install driver etc). If it detects it as PTP change it back (to MTP), and hopefully it will be OK.

After a lot of looking and a lot of cursing,I found the answer! (It was the cursing that helped!) Install Windows Media Player v13. The needed driver is included. After a reboot, I was able to see the Nexus 7 on my PC and (more importantly) able to transfer files to it!

USB Connection To PC Not Detected

Having the same issue here. These two guys as well http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1851868&highlight=usb+connected Did you also use a car charger? Don't know when it happened for me, but sometime between it last working and testing car chargers it stopped working. Same thing for me as one of the posters says, USB-OTG works, so I would think it's not a physical issue, but how to reset it. Dunno, Any help would be appreciated.

ADB, Fastboot, or USB Connected device in Windows does not work. Computer doesn't even detect, no USB connect sound.

UPDATE:

Installed Glazed Jellybean v.1.1.2 thinking it might clearup the issues with detection of USB and presenting it to the PC. Still same results, USB data connectivity is missing somehow. Just might be some sort of physical damage. Kernel was updated as well to Linaro Motley Kernel v1.1.1.

I had this happen after using a car charger from amazon. I actually really believe that the charger is the problem, as I had originally got the charger for my recently departed tf101, and after using the charger on that, same problem as what's happening with my n7. Sure, there's workarounds, but it'd be nice to connect to pc for faster transfers.

I am having the exact same problems listed previously & I've tried almost all the same fix attempts with no luck. Like a couple others, mine worked out of the box, then I charged it in my car (using the Nexus 7 cable plugged in to a USB cigarette lighter adapter)... Now, nothing but the indication on the Nexus that it's charging. No indication at all that the computer is even aware a device is plugged in to it. Has anyone found anything? Please, Lord, say it's so!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] histrel:
I found a fix

Whether this will work for everyone I am not sure.

I took the USB from the hub I was using & plugged it into one of the front ports on the actual tower unit. The drivers were reinstalled and everything is working again.

It may be the Nexus didn't like the hub or it may be that particular USB port threw a wobbler.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clintjames77:
Thanks, but I've plugged my N7 in to 15+ usb ports on 3 different PCs & haven't gotten anywhere. No changes.

I did call ASUS support yesterday & was told by the tech support person that they were working on a "PC SYNC" software for the N7, but did not have a release date for it yet. I'm not very optimistic. The tech sounded like she could have been reading from a script. Didn't sound as if she knew what she was talking about. I may take my N7 back & get a replacement.

It was this one at first, then I complained it didn't work, and they sent one that could've come from their own car, the way it looked.

And yes, I know it says "for Asus tf101".
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevchaps:
Perhaps there's a "safety switch" of some sort, written into the os, that "shuts down" the ability to communicate through usb after using these car chargers? That may sound stupid, i know.

I don't think it's a pc problem, since the n7 still charges when connected, and also, because this has happened twice to me, with both my tf101 and my n7,directly after using these car chargers.

And, for some reason, I don't believe it has caused hardware damage to the n7. I kind of believe what I said in the first paragraph. Maybe this will happen to a dev, and they will look into the problem.

I suppose rma is an option, but patience is not my strong point. :D

I have 3 computers and 2 Nexus 7 in household, and one N7 has no problem being recognized by computers and the second N7 wont connect as a MTP device at all, on any computer, with many different cable and port combos. The second N7 was bought just a few days ago and I was not going to root and leave a virgin device, so it was essential to have access to sdcard with computer as storage device. Looks like I am taking it back for replacement...which is a shame because other than usb problem the second N7 was a perfect C70...my first N7 C70 has a minor screen lift, and after comparing the two tabs side by side, a slightly more washed out display.

This was my thoughts as well, thought some of the system files were altered in someway by either that process or my installing usb related apps. USB OTG and USB monitoring apps specifically. However, I decided to try an load Glazed Jelly Bean hoping it would resolve this issue by rewriting the system files, but it was still broken.
