There was an app for my Captivate that would remove or hide SMS from the call log and eventually most chefs built that feature into their ROMs. I'd like to be able to do the same with my SGS3 but I can't find a simple app to do JUST that; I don't need to install some "secret" SMS app.

I understand if you go to the dialer and then Menu>View By you can add filters but it always reverts to "All Logs". I just don't want SMS showing up at all.

I'm stock and not rooted. Little help?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
Don't think there's a way to do this without rooting and applying a mod (if there is one) or using a custom ROM. I know there are a few stock-based ROMs that advertise exactly this as a feature.

Hi guys, i am looking for some stuff which i can change my lock screen wallpaper, i do not want to use any apps like widget locker or something like that. I want something maybe flash able.

Hi

I don't want to go back to stock hboot when I try other roms because there isn't enough space for apps so would anyone tell me how to make roms compatible with cm7r2 hboot

Thank you
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
this method won't necessarily work for all roms.

basically you can remove things from the /system to make it less than 145MB

use something like 7zip. double click rom.zip (don't extract)

- system/app, delete apps that you don't need.

- system/tts/lang_pico, delete languages you don't need

- system/media/audio, delete some alarms, notifications, ringtones

when you finish, check system size < 145MB then close 7zip to update the rom.zip

if you still can't get system < 145MB, then it is possible to symlink various parts to sd-ext so it will still fit onto cm7r2 hboot, but this is beyond my knowledge.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
You need this.

Sense 1.9 could be shrinked under 80 on /system, so I guess majority of roms fit in Oxygenr2 and probably all in cm7r2 respectively and probably with preserving all contents .

I rooted my friends lg doubleplay (no custom roms whatsoever). And she really wants to change the system theme to blue or something. Is it possible to change the system theme without installing a custom rom. Can i just extract a theme manager from a rom and install it on her phone
[General Questions and Answers] iKoolkid:
There's a theme manager on the market, yes you can replace the system theme, but you need to be rooted and have cwm to flash it. If you are on cm9 search up cm themes if cm7, cm7 themes.
[About XDA developers] Osyx:
Hello all xda:ers!

Surely have all of you have gotten a thanks, but have you given one?

The thanks button is more than a button its a help and a way to show your gratitude and support.

So what do you do with it?

If somebody has helped you and solved your problem, press the thanks button.

If somebody has posted some material you like or download press the thanks button.

If somebody has wrote a comment or thread you agreed on, press the thanks button.

And so on...

Let's give you a example of what happens if you don't press the thanks button:

A guy who is new in development have decided to do an app for himself to use because he feels like it's missing something on his phone. He makes the app, and feels that oh yeah this is a really good app, I should give it to the community so they also can use it!

He makes a thread here on XDA about the app and so on and adds the Apk to the thread in an attachment...

Really many here at xda thinks oh what a great app, I couldn't live without it any more!

So after a few days he sees that the thread has had 10k views so he checks out the thread to se what people have said and so on. He looks at his post and sees that he only have gotten 10 thanks!

So he thinks then, well people didn't like my app why should I continue to develop on it? He takes the thread and closes it and takes away the attachments, he makes a code that sends a message to all the downloaded apps that the app testing is now finished and closed so you can't use it anymore and there is no further development since nobody likes this app...

So all of those who downloaded the app can now not use the application that were so great and the guy who made it is gone out of the community!

SO IF YOU LIKE SOMETHING PRESS THAT THANKS SO THE DEVELOPERS CAN UNDERSTAND THAT THEIR WORK IS APPRECIATED AND CONTINUES ON THEIR WORK! AND SO THE USERS WHO HELP YOU HERE ON XDA FEELS THAT ITS GOOD TO HELP PEOPLE INSTEAD OF JUST THROWING SH*T IN THE THREADS!

Thanks that's all I wanted to say!

I agree with you on the buttons being alil stiff...but I got my case a few days ago but if you work with it some they do loosen up some
[Galaxy S III Accessories] woostar88:
Define "Best" there are MANY different "BEST" cases out there... check out my review of Otterbox Defender in Atomic color. I love it, but some might hate it.

I get a lot of compliments from people about the funky color...

Honestly, if you're looking for a case that can offer a great protection from almost everything but water... look no further. Otterbox has been manufacturing quality and very well designed cases for many years. Also, if you get it from amazon, you save about $20. just my two cents!

Thats a bold statement... I want to be safe than sorry

I was thinking about going naked all the way, but i think this phone is too nice for that. also, the cases are sexy too!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Speedin07si:
It's bold yes, but I don't think screen protectors are necessary. Cases yes. But a screen protector won't stop your screen from cracking or shattering if dropped, it'll help stop scratches. But gorilla glass is design to resist most scratches already.

My over 2 year old epic's screen still looks brand new. Even after drops and kicks...Just my personal opinion.

Kinda glad the trident kraken doesn't come with a built in one.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] bmoreboy02:
People who say the built in screen protector pops out i think have another protector on under it. Me and my gf both have the defender but had ivisor screen guards on the phone also. The screen popped up off the screen bc the case was designed for the phone with no accessories. We took the screen guards off and the case fits PERFECT
[Galaxy S III Accessories] baste07:
Great this solved my popping out issue
[Galaxy S III Accessories] djlenoir:
Why no mention of Seidio cases? I have been using their cases for my last few phones and they are great. My GS3 case has a magnetic metal kickstand and looks nice. It also feels well protected. I don't use a screen protector though as I also prefer naked. Personally, I think screen protectors offer a false sense of security on modern gorilla glass screens.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IceCatraz:
I need some help.

I was charging my Epic4G Touch last night - it was around 40 percent, and I was going to spend all day out, so I wanted it fully charged. The phone gets a little warm when it charges, but that's normal. Well, I feel asleep, and I guess I was tired enough to put the phone underneath both of my pillows, aaaaand a fuzzy blanket.

I woke up this morning to the phone practically on fire - it was insanely hot, and it wouldn't turn on. I disassembled the phone - took the case off, took off the battery cover, and took the flaming hot battery out. After letting it cool down, I tried putting it back together, and the phone won't turn on. I tried plugging the phone into it's charger again, and the blue light flashes, the screen flashes on and shows the empty battery icon, then almost instantly turns off. The light itself is really dull.

I don't know what to do. Has anyone else had this problem, or have any ideas? I'm going to try again in a few minutes, but I'm in New York right now (I live in CT, USA), so I can't visit the Sprint Store with the owner of the line.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sam Sung:
Hate to say it, but it sounds like the charger could have eaten your phone. I bought an E4GT about a year ago and the first thing I did was ditch the charger. Weird charge times and rendered the phone unusable while it was charging (would act erratically, charging resyults were inconsistent,

For me, this was corrected when I picked up another charger with the correct specs (5v, .7 amps). I stayed with OEM, but blew past the sprint store to avoid the ridiculous charges. Here are two that I picked up from Amazon:

OEM Travel charger (use at home):

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Trave...4786445&sr=1-1&keywords=epic+4g+touch+charger

OEM Car charger:

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Trave...4786445&sr=1-1&keywords=epic+4g+touch+charger

They are very reasonably priced and I've not had any other issues.

In your case, however, you may want to take phone and charger into Sprint, as it sounds as if your phone may have suffered damage. If you get a new phone (via warranty or insurance), I would recommend getting one or both of the above chargers. Together, these two items are still much cheaper than one bought from Sprint.

I had a similar incident where my power was out & charged with my phone in my car (bad move but wasn't thinking in all the frenzy) and the same thing happened to my phone.. I pulled the battery let my phone sit for a while (a few hours) to cool off and it was back to normal.. You might want to try that, well give it a little longer.. I may have been lucky though

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IceCatraz:
Well, after a day, things seem to be normal. I had to leave the battery out and alone for about 3 hours, but after, when I plugged it in, it started to charge again. So far, everything seems normal, including the battery life, so that's good.

Thanks to both of you. I don't think it was the charger, but picking up another charger is never a bad thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
Check and see if the sides of your battery are bulged out at all. You should not be able to spin it on a table top for example. If it is at all, you should replace the battery.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sockmonkey72:
Hi again,

I've recently flashed the Paranoid Android 1.98 ROM and am very happy with it (note to the interested: although the kernel for PA doesn't use datadata, my phone works great and lag-free. I had amazing lag problems with Slim Bean, and the datadata thing was cited as the reason. So that's not the case).

Anyway, every time I start the phone, the OS takes a fairly long time (45s-1m or so) scanning the internal SD card and "searching for errors". Nothing works until this scan is done. Is that normal? I didn't have this under CM7 or CM9.

Thanks

sm72
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dal8moc:
I can't tell if it us normal or not. But having some experience with Linux I guess the start up scripts do the usual filesystem scan. This is normal!

But a healthy filesystem shouldn't need that much time to scan. So either the fstab has a wrong filesystem type for the sd mount point or the fs is dirty and doesn't got fixed for whatever reason. If it's the latter then insert the card into the PC. Windows should prompt you for a scan and repair. That should fix any errors of the fs.

If windows doesn't find anything or doesn't even prompt you for a scan it might be the other reason. Usually the card seems formatted as fat32 which - I think - isn't handled by msdos but the vfat driver. But your best bet is to contact the Rom developer and ask for help I guess.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sockmonkey72:
Hi, thanks for the reply.

It's the internal SD card, so I can't stick it in a PC, unfortunately. I backed up the card, formatted and restored the data yesterday -- no change.

OK, I'll try to get in touch with the PA people, although I think they're no longer supporting SGS, so I might just be SOL.

Thanks
