I don't follow...its available for pre-order overseas, T-Mobile is getting it, pictures and press materials have been all over the internet...what is so strange about my definition of "official"?

o_O? .... screw you even more Samsung......

http://phandroid.com/2012/08/28/galaxy-s3-coming-in-four-new-colors-soon/

I'm sure everyone's already seen the ATT Garnet Red. If not,

Here's another shot of the Sapphire Black

Titanium Grey

& Amber Brown
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] typedink:
WHAT!! That Titanium Grey look s sweeet. Man if it has any chance of getting there before my 30 days are up I will take the blue back for it... but I doubt it will happen. *sigh*
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] reflectingod96:
why can't they release all the desired colors at the launch of the phone?? like they do with cars and normal other stuff???

pissing of the first buyers who had choice between withe and blue? 6 month after release they release other colors just to sell more phones?? .... i hate marketting
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Rath1on:
I agree. I would have loved Sapphire Black. :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Black would be nice. Especially since I'm gonna get the black mophie juice pack for the S3 when it's released soon. I'm using a white iPhone 4S at the moment tho lol, getting another S3 ASAP my first one was defective and I went back to the iPhone for a bit, but samsung is releasing an amber colored S3 as well as titanium grey one, and I think they both look great as well especially the titanium one. Android central has the pics
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KentuckyHouse:
I'm with a lot of others here...I wish they'd, at the very least, offered black at launch. While I like the Pebble Blue (blue IS my favorite color), I've noticed that I'm starting to grow tired of it. I love how on my Galaxy Nexus, you almost can't tell the screen from the bezel. Plus, it does kinda limit the colors of the cases you can use (if you care about that sort of thing like I do).

I may have to look around the MP once the black is released and see if I can work a trade plus some $$$ on my end for one of the black ones.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
You should be able to work out an even trade, it's the same exact phone and if there's no scratches there's no reason to pay that person extra money for a color. But I understand in desperate times, cause desperate measures lol. Someone will end up not liking the black one and you'll be set
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bigbadworm:
Release Date

Anyone heard a release date for the new colors? Think the 64GB version will ever show up?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] typedink:
I read somewhere possibly October for the grey, unfortunately still speculation and if true past my 30 days... *sigh*.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalitza:
Hi everyone.

I'm thinking on buying one of this 2 phones:

- Htc one x

- Samsung glx s3

but i just wanna know from the people who own them or used some times, wich one is better? Like i saw lots of reviews and stuff but always telling about the speed of the processor and scores that they get. What i really need is to know how it is day-to-day use, like wich is good on playing games and also get some good baterry (like a day at least), get good video/fotos, etc

other question: i have an nexus s and i always get the lattest versions of software like now i have 4.1.1 for 3 weeks, so does this phones get also the lattest releases quick? (s2 for exemple was top level device but the galaxy nexus was better on getting the last releases)

Sorry on my english but i've tryed my best.

Thank you all.

cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagdude:
These are two of the most competing phone on the market. There are plenty of S3 vs One X videos.

Gaming goes to S3, and battery life is supposed to be very very good on it too.

One X's camera I heard is quite amazing.

As for updates, Nexus got them faster than S2 because its a nexus device, S2 is not. But S2 had plenty of ROMs. S3 should have a lot of development as well.

Anybody flash this to Darkside? I'd love to give it a try since we are ARMv7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
Give it a shot, its made for ICS, so it should work. If not, near the bottom of the post, is a zip to revert it back to the original google search. Running V6 on AOKP ICS, works great. Though, i do notice a small battery drain with it, but for me, its worth it.
[Desire HD General] hasan1st:
I have a problem with a Desire HD. I can use the volume rocker in boot manager and fastboot but it does not work in recovery or while the ROM is loaded. I've tried a lot of ROMs; GB, ICS and even JB with the same issue. Does anyone have any idea what this could be? :confused:
[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
Flash 4ext touch recovery, you wouldn't need the volume rocker and buy the app from market very useful
[Desire HD General] GuyInTheCorner:
Still need it to boot into hboot incase you brick the phone...

Sent from my Desire HD with BlackIce.

Thanks don't hurt ya know?! :)
[Desire HD General] marsdta:
If your phone is truly bricked then it wouldn't matter if the rocker worked or not. Just a pet peeve when people throw out the bricked word.

Plus adb has it uses if one gets stuck.

@op, you can try CAREFULLY remove the rocker and clean the contacts
[Desire HD General] hasan1st:
The phone works perfectly fine. I successfully installed many ROMs. I can use every aspect of the phone (install apps, make calls, etc..) I can also increase and reduce volume levels from android but clicking the volume rocker does nothing (except in bootloader.)

I've installed CWM and 4EXT touch recoveries. I don't have a problem with installing ROMs.

The phone was AAHC S-Off. I've tried making it S-On and installed stock ROM but volume rocker is still not working :S
[Desire HD General] GuyInTheCorner:
I agree with @marsdta clean the contacts. My volume rocker fell out yesterday :what: but pushed it back in

Thanks don't hurt ya know?! :)
[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
Dude it doesnt matter what u flash to the phone if I ts hardware problem,suggesting touch recovery is a way that you don't need volume rocker ,if your really desperate use tooth pick gently ,mine has no volume rocker anymore and I get on fine with whatever I want to do
[Desire HD General] hasan1st:
The volume rocker works in the bootloader. This is whats confusing.
[Desire HD General] Astralix:
Glad to see, that you already mentioned the "works in bootloader" again.

I can only guess, but if you already installed several different systems, I guess you use sort of backup / restore for your apps?

I think I'vre read about apps that can reassign different functions to the volume buttons. May be some app you always restore breaks the volume function?

Did you check after "real full wipe" and "install system only" without restoring your apps?

Second option is, that your parameters are screwed up. AFAIK parameters is part of the recovery system, so it is not overwritten or reset if you up- or downgrade. Sorry, but I am only kernel-guy so the Android devs may help by leading you to the right ssettings in your parameters for DHD and how to access this file. But you should be able to ask the right question now, I hope.

Astralix
[Desire HD General] hasan1st:
Perhaps I should just give up...
[Desire HD General] Astralix:
1) Why should you?

Let's stop panic, analyze with system:

2) Did you install several different ROMs?

YES/NO

3) Do you remember at what ROM the volume rocker didn't work anymore?

4) Can you install a ROM where it again works, even you don't like it?

So question 1) is just rhetorical as I think you don't want to have a bricked phone.

2) is for us to understand what might have happened.

3) could make it easy to identify the ROM that possibly reprogramed your parameters.

Ahould not be too difficult as you might still have the ROMs on your harddrives.

4) May help you to get a working phone and gives you and us time to analyze the root cause.

Just ignoring your problem might lead to other bricked volume rockers and the originator of the ROM image that could kill the rockers may never get the important feedback...

Astralix
[Desire HD General] junooni:
this should work!

Hasan, you described exactly the same problem I am facing. While I also have not been able to find a reason for this, here's what works for me every time and I hope also works for you.

Once you go into bootloader and the volume rockers freeze, pull out the SD card and it should start working immediately. Once you select to go in recovery, you can push the SD card back in to access your downloaded roms as usual.

Do report back of it works for you.
[Desire HD General] synergydevelopment:
Try erasing all partitions from fastboot, fastboot flashing a recovery, then flash a ROM through recovery.

I want to be able to stream varies video files (avi, mkv, etc) to my N7 from my PC while away from home. Tried looking to see if this was already talked about but couldn't see anything.

Tried Plex however unsuccessful in setting it up? Any links or suggestions or best app's or tutorial on setting this up? UPnP/DLNA or FTP (old school way)? Plex or BubbleUPnP or something else?

FYI....running Windows 7 x64 at home. Have N7 connected to my i9100 most of the time. Have newer Netgear WNDR3700-100NAS Wireless Gigabit Open Source Router at home. Also my N7 is not rooted.

Thank you in advance.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] goalkeepr:
Have you tried orb or playon?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sgill74:
Have you tried VLC, or XBMC?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] PurpleRob:
Or Skifta
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] runandhide05:
Just use a rdp app, splash top or any other ones
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] neotekz:
If you enable file sharing you can use es file explorer and dice player to stream from your PC but it has to be on the same network. I've been watching movies this way since I got my nexus and it works great. There's no lag or having to wait for buffer.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Synx0:
You should just go download qloud video server and then thank me after... I guarantee its exactly what you're looking for... easy to setup and works perfect ... seriously don't know why more people don't recommend this!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] heyodee:
Best solution to the OPs question is Plex

Or dice ➕ VPN
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] pepperbreath:
Dice player will play videos over a shared folder.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] TahrirSquare:
Did you try Zumocast?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tikiral:
I'd say Plex too, don't really like Orb's interface, but if the OP was having issues setting up Plex (a very easy process in my experience) I would think that they will have similar issues with any other service.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] JaSauders:
Does Subsonic handle video? If so, Subsonic = instant win... I use it for music. Couldn't ask for much more than what Subsonic offers.

Note: It's free for basic use, but for mobile use you need to donate a few bucks to unlock a key to use it with mobile devices as well. I donated like 15 bucks. EASILY worth it. I hook up my N7 to some 2.0 speakers on my deck and stream from my server downstairs.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tragik74:
I use BSplayer stream video from NAS
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] R3dbeaver:
guys, he said...

i dunno about App, but the old school way is indeed the easiest way. set up FTP server in ur PC, open and forward FTP port from your router, use ES File Explorer to add the WAN IP address as FTP server.

of course, 2 issues:

- if u got Dynamic IP (standard home cable/satellite broadband) then u need to update it every now and then

- i cant guarantee it can "stream" if using a FTP setup.

the alternative is of course using ur router, setup a Virtual server, and share the windows machine. if u set it up securely and use the correct ports, then it could be the better solution. but im not sure how to configure it with Netgear.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] juami:
Dice player have built in

Smb , ftp , http support with external sub files.

No rooting is required.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] nakedninja42:
Plex is fairly simple to setup. Need to make sure you UPnP on your router, if not then set the default port in the firewall on the router for the app. After you install, launch your browser or right click the icon in the task tray. Web address is http://computerIP:32400/manage. You will then tell it where your TV, Movies, Pictures, and Music folder is and let it sit for awhile depending so it can gather all the metadata.

I have been using Plex for over a year now and it just keeps getting better. I use it on all my devices when I am out and use Plex Media on my desktop connected to the TV or stream to xbox on my office TV.

Also create an account with plex forums and you can use it to log in in the web GUI and it will make it easier to connect to your N7 while out of the house.

If you have other question on setting it up, PM me and I'll try my best to help out.

Get the Patched-Rotation file

Setup is as easy as making an account and logging in to it on your PC and device. You also have to download the PC software from the zumocast site. I've tested this away from home and it works great. Streams videos, music, and basically opens any file up (like documents, pictures..etc)

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] edd247:
Another option is an app called Emit, set up is super simple
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] denimjunkie82:
+1 for emit. Lightweight, easy to use, no bloat, active dev,works perfectly.

Sole reason why I bought an N7. Everything else is just bonus.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] det66:
MediaHouse works quite well
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] zjed:
I run a WMC sever and extenders around the house. With this can use "remote potato" on your server and "remote media center" on your N7. The UI in remote media center is average but it streams well. You have to open a port in your firewall to use externally. And its all free.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] R3dbeaver:
this is interesting. can you provide more details? a bit more how-to perhaps?

thanks!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] munir3124:
I use Skifta, Plex Media Server and BS Player. Works like a charm !!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Nizda1:
If you want a very simple way to stream hd video from pc to n7 get splashtop 2. Its free and its optimized for tegra as long as you dont need to stream while away from home. I have to say I never really liked splashtop but the new one is so fluid and the graphics are perfect keep in mind your not only streaming video but your entire computer. So load up vlc or wmc or whatever and watch a movie use hulu desktop. Anyways the point is you follow the 2-3 directions install on pc and android and your good.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] eNdblu:

I have it installed on every single device in my house and love it
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] jabbaMDAc:
What about AIR Video? I've got it for years because of the iPad (video server on PC which re-encode the video on the fly so it streams not HD but already sized down stream) and iOS app - and there is compatible player already for Android called Mirage (still Beta).

And for "streaming" while not at home I would recommend flash disk on USB cable :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] bratfink:
Im in a similar situation but have a different problem

What i would like to do is stream videos while im at home, however i want to use MX Player for watching the video which means i need an app that i can use to access and stream the files on the fly. Does anyone know how i can set this up?

Ive tried emit and the video quality is low, plex was a bit better but still nowhere near as good as MX player. Any recommendations?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] nakedninja42:
Use Es File Explorer from the market to connect to you network folders and launch the video file. You'll be able to select MX as your player.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] bratfink:
Thanks for your help, iv managed to set up ES using the LAN function to log into my PC, but for some reason the only folder i can access is my 'users' folder and its subfolders, but all my dad is stored on a different internal harddrive, the D:/. How do i set up the D drive for sharing?

List beats that will work with htc Samsung

Urbeats (not ibeats)

Htc beats solo

Beats wireless ( Bluetooth)
[HTC One S] Hamoonfarsa:
its not a problem. if you read the manual, you'll see that some controls are just for iphone. and the controls are different for android, iphone and blackberry.
[HTC One S] thanito:
It is not a problem with our One S.

If you noticed the handsfree shipped with the phone only has one button and the control is on the single cable, just like the iPhone. the older htc handsfree, just like the urBeats have the controller where the two cables become one.

The best solution for you is to download the Jays app from play store and you can have play/pause, vol up/down, next/previous track with a single button. ;)
[HTC One S] thelastred:
It doesn't matter how the cable looks.
