They fetch a pretty decent price on ebay with good ESNs in good shape. I've been looking for one sort of to set up a friend for development. You can probably expect about $90+

Other than that like the others said it makes a good media player, gps, portable gaming device, etc. Use it as a tool kit on wifi.

Get air-push detector from the market to identify which app that is doing it, then un-install it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatii:
thanks but i tried it before text here. air push couldn't find any think
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
It is definitely a push ad, addon detector will show all apps that can push notifications and it will be one of those apps.

So all you need is check that list to see what apps you installed a week ago are on there and delete the one you suspect.

My GEN is 2

I want a good tpt GEN 2 for COLDFUSIONX

I want alot of memmory and yeah. cause last time i did pick a random it sucked i had like memory for 2 apps xD.

thanks!
[Blade General] Jinxxed:
First of all, CFX hasn't been updated in ages because Lalit's Blade broke and he's only developing for Skate now so use KonstaKANG's CM9 instead (that is what Lalit, the developer of CFX recommends too).

If you head over to Modaco you'll find that there is a TPT for KonstaKANG made by the dev himself so it's the best one there is for the rom.

Here's the link to the thread: http://www.modaco.com/topic/355059-romgen2388-cyanogenmod-9-konstakang-android-404/

I find that i always run out of space for data so i just use S2E with a 1GB ext partition.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
How do i get an xbox 360 gamepad to work with shadowgun or dead trigger. My character just spins around and stuff like that. i can't even play the game. The controller works fine as it works with onlive. It's hard to even assign the controls as it automatically becomes joystick 3+ or something like that. Thanks for the help.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
Not quite sure how it works with the xbox controller, but if its recognized by the game as a gamepad then you can assign the buttons on the settings of each game.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
i tried it but the character still spins around. I can't even assign buttons on shadowgun with ease because it automatically becomes a certain button.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
What you are saying is that when you try to assign a button it automatically sets it? so when trying to set several buttons you get the same mapping?

If that's what is happening maybe your controller is malfunctioning or the global mappings are wrong. Go into your tablets setting under input fins your controller make sure it has a check mark on the left side, then tap on the right side button to toggle the controllers specific settings. In there check the global mappings make sure that the buttons don't repeat themselves.

Hope that helps, I. don't have an xbox controller so I can't be much help.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Sorry, i didn't explain it that well really. It's like the analogue stick is malfunctioning so when i'm trying to assign a button, because the analogue stick is "malfunctioning", it automatically assigns the action to the analogue stick because it detects constant movement i think. The only thing i can do to get it to assign is to mash the button and what i want it to be assigned to constantly at the same time. The controller works fine. I don't know why it does that. Thanks for the help
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jusatin:
Try cold booting and then reconnecting your controller. Is it wired or wireless btw? I hear some people are having problems with the wireless one. (You can also try pressing the stick to the bottom, that sometimes works with the xbox at least)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
It's wireless. Thanks for the help

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wpbear:
I am enjoying the S3 so far with no huge complaints. Today I pulled out my original Droid Incredible to wipe and hand it down. The S3 replaced this only 2 weeks ago and I immediately noticed how beautiful the Incredible screen was compared to the S3. Yes the size is no comparison but the clarity and brightness of the original Incredible is so much better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
If I had not noticed you have been a member since 2006 I would say your trolling.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mutelight:
Or something is wrong with his screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] imeio:
i think good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jkat797:
I think maybe you mean the other way around...?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayochs:
good lord, you're kidding, right? aside from the fact that the inc lcd is so far away from the actual digitizer compared to the s3, the pentile display on the inc makes it so easy to see pixels without even looking. i had mine powered up yesterday too, and compared to my rezound and my s3, it's got NOTHING on them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wpbear:
The original DInc has a AMOLED and is beautiful. From the signatures of the replies I see a lot of Samsung owners so I know this is going nowhere but AMOLED beats all others.

If I can be called trolling then I can reply with what fanboys....a little kidding
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayochs:
you do know that the S3 is SUPER Amoled, right? with a higher PPI, higher resolution, etc?

and you can look at my sig and notice i own the Eris, Inc, View Tablet, and Rezound.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wpbear:
I guess it is like going to Best Buy and looking at the wall of TV and one person says I like that picture and the person next to you says no I like that one.....

I think the brightness seems less on the GS3, especially outside. Still like the GS3 over the new Inc 4G which could have been my other choice. HTC made a really small screen on the Inc 4G compared to the current market.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hoola20055:
Wow I've owned both currently gs3 and I have to disagree COMPLETELY . sorry BT that's my opinion. Gs3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>dinc IMO way way to the next evolution of it don't matter. Again just my opinion

I agree with the OP.

Had an Inc, most beautiful screen ever, hands down. There's just something about it that radiates brilliance.

VERIZON GALAXY S 3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] triton302:
With all of the Android devices I've owned, the best I've seen for clarity is the Rezound, no question. I've purposely looked for imperfections in the pixel layout and it's damn hard to see, only thing is the screen just isn't as vivid. I agree, the Charge also had a beautiful screen, but the one I had was plagued by the infamous "yellowing" on the right side of the screen that many GS2 owners experienced, that and the low RAM forced me to return it. The brightest screen I've used was on the Bionic, that thing was blinding on an all-white screen turned up all the way.

The GS3 screen is a little of everything. It's bright enough for me, very clear for a Pentile screen, vivid and clear colors, no imperfections... love it. So far this phone has been great, especially the data/GPS signal. That was surprising.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jayochs:
the S3 screen looks 100x better than the nexus, but i remember hearing it's the same tech..is that true? cuz my nexus looks awful lol it had the yellow tint (before i color modd'ed it) and there's terrible banding throughout...there's none on my S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Coming from a thunderbolt, the SG3 screen looks so much better :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] werdna87:
im coming from an inc to a rez to a GS3 and the gs3 screen is the best IMO

EDIT: I also have 2 galaxy nexi (yes 2 is nexi i think) and think the GS3 screen is much better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aj8600:
Boy have i had one heck of a day. So there i was driving along in my buddies car, minding my own business flashing dhacker's latest CM10 build. But then out of no where, BAM, there went my IMEI, and with it went my day. I had a backup of the efs.sbn so i thought "no biggie" and went to restore it. I couldnt find it and went to the next step and did is with the QPST software. I quickly restored my IMEI and i thought i was home free; boy was i wrong.... I noticed something was wrong: no data still.

So i had a fully intact IMEI and still no data. I headed over to IRC where i pleaded for help. I was given the number to reset your sim card, and without being told it would wipe my whole phone (silly invisiblek) i blindly killed everything on my sweet little handset and went back to square one. well maybe square 0....

My newly wiped phone turned on stock rooted. My data had been turned into Roaming, which was as good as not there :p. I ran back to IRC and asked about what happened. I was told to try the mms fix for CM10. this meant that i had to flash CM10. I flashed CM10 booted up and my IMEI was still intact (however my MEID soon reverted to 0's) and i still had raoming. i did all the steps and i was left in the same boat, but with mms for when i had data lol

And then i went back to IRC and chadamir said he would help me by walking me through it. He told me i needed to odin back to stock. AND HERES WHERE THE BEST PART HAPPENS: I open up odin, put my phone in download mode and flash invisbleks rooted stripped rom (which i used to root my phone weeks ago) and just like that BOOTLOOPS FOR DAYS. so... you know, as usual, no biggie, right? I flashed root66 BOOTLOOPS FOR DAYS. Maybe a little worried at this point, but i decide to sleep on it. I do, and this morning i flash a completely stock unrooted .tar and lo and behold....... BOOTLOOPS FOR DAYS.

UPDATE: I have no booted into my phone, no data still.

WHERE I'M AT RIGHT NOW:

take back to verizon and tell them it wont boot

flash more

get help from one of you fellows!

cry myself to sleep
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
can you get to recovery and wipe data factory reset?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aj8600:
OP updated: i have booted into recovery wiped data and am now in Stock unrooted, still no data. No roaming also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dpwhitty11:
Happened to me, no known fix.

Yea I was about to go AOSP. Not anymore. This IMEI/MEID/DATA/ROAMING issue is scary and not worth it in my opinion. I hope this won't be an issue in the future but right now it's just way too risky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aj8600:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aj8600:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zool4nd3r:
I wish I could just blame this problem solely on Verizon, but apparently this has been happening across the board. I flashed a CM10 ROM last week but got sick of everything not functioning properly so I switched back to TW based...now I'm scared to go back :/ especially after reading this. I backed mine up, but it sounds like that may not be enough. To make matters worse, I don't have a PC to tinker around with, so no Odin for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brockkk:
Same happened to me. My imei went to 0 I was able to recover that using qpst. They my maid went to all 0s. I was able to fix that by pushing the original backup method onto my phone but I was stuck in roaming. So I activated my old iPhone in place of my s3 and tried to reactivate my s3 instead of my iPhone. It would just take me to a black screen so I took it into Verizon expecting to get a replacement phone, nope! The guy at Verizon took out my SIM card did some **** on the comp put the SIM card back in and it worked fine. Now I'm browsing 4g 3g and WiFi :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidGraphix:
In a situation like this, would have made any difference if we had the bootloader unlocked?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
No because lost imei is happening across all u.s. gs3 variants.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] B_rock:
This happened to me also, I was playing around with CM10 and then flashed back to CM9 and I wiped everything that you're supposed to. I did the IMEI thing and that didn't help and it disappeared also. I took it into the Verizon store and they tried 3 SIM card which took about 4 hours of them troubleshooting. They gave me an in-store replacement so I was happy, I am not going to flash anything CM10 and I'd recommend other people don't also but YMMV.

I also got a new one in store because I just had got it 4 days prior.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goldsmitht:
really not sure what replacing the SIM card would do to fixing this. Semi-noob here, but would think that the SIM card's function would be to "allow" the phone to get on the network, maybe hold the encryption key. How would we do anything to the SIM card when we change parts of the OS?

just curious if anyone has an answer...

[Nexus S General] Cuyi02:
You're like me always flashing roms trying to find perfection. On ICS, Apex did it for me. On JB JellyBelly and now CNA. The Nexus S is a very good phone and I think it's a mistake to get a newer phone that'll do the same things only a little bit faster. I actually got it in March when I renewed my phone contract. I could've gotten a newer phone but I wanted a Nexus device and the Galaxy Nexus is too big for my taste.
[Nexus S General] torchie:
It would be a waste to go from a Nexus s to a Galaxy Nexus with marginally better battery life, camera, and speed.

With 4.1.1 my stock nexus s is near perfect, but now I'm absolutely infuriated with the screen on battery time. It's seriously pathetic. It makes me not enjoy anymore too.

I recommend waiting for a phone that comes with 4.x and exceeds 9 hours screen on time in anandtech 3g browsing tests. The only device that does so so far is the att one x.

I'm waiting for a smaller high end 4.1+ phone with good WiFi reception that significantly succeeds that battery life with the stock battery. That would be the only thing worth upgrading to from a nexus s. Should be here by end of contract next year...
