copy all your apks from data/system. extract all of them with apktool. download the htc icons pngs.

do this for each app.

lets start with messages. go into drawableMdpi and replace ic_launcher.png with the htc messages icon and rename it the same as it used to be.

do this for every other app and you have htc icons :)

I travel all over the world but my Samsung galaxy SII (Sprint) doesn't work outside the U.S.

Is there a software/MOD I can install it to make it work outside the U.S.

Thank you!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Have you called or talk to sprint?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slvrap1:
It may be possible if where you are traveling to has a cdma network and operates on the same radio frequency. Like people that flash their sprint phones to metro pcs. As far as using it with a foreign GSM network that's not going to happen
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
LOL our phone does not have GSM hardware. There are a few phones on Verizon like the GS3 which recently had its feature enabled that have GSM radios.

All the phones that have the feature which is eventually enabled officially or by software mods have the hardware and its usually well known that they have the hardware at or just after launch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kinghorsey:
You'd need the international version, not the variant editions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddyink:
Talked with Sprint and they said Samsung phones are not World Phone and recommended switching to iPhone 4S,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmonger11b:
That's wrong because Samsung made an international SGS2 and SGS3 it's just a GSM phone instead of CDMA. As far as I'm tracking there's very few Verizon phones that use sim cards for international use and Sprint doesn't carry any. If travel outside the US for extended periods of time you might be better seeing if sprint will put your account on a hold while your overseas and buying a decent GSM phone for whenever your there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
U should have bought a Motorola photon its world enabled and isn't crapple, that's the only android world phone on sprint that I'm aware of that's currently available, other options are iSuck and crackberry :eek:

The sim in vzw phones are for lte not international use, idk if you could unlock it to work internationally or not cuz as far as I'm aware its only connected to the lte radio and not the 1x/3g capable radio and I'm not sure many other countries support lte only hspa+ which transmits on a different frequency than lte does

I wasn't sure if they would or not, I don't keep up too much with big red wallet rapist, I know on the early lte devices the sim would only work for lte and nothing else, I figured thered be a hack or mod to unlock it tho

Thats why I had suggested getting a GSM phone. Dousche (sp) Telecom two of the biggest euro cell providers are GSM based networks. I know T-Mobile allowed me to freeze my account when I went over to Germany with the army I dunno if sprint would do the same

get a Motorola photon off of ebay, its a world phone alright just pop in any gsm sim of any operator outside US ( plz note it doesnt work with US gsm operators , can be done with some tweaking though ;) ) and it will work out of the box , data will work as well without issues.

and when u are back you can transfer your sprint line onto it.

its a great phone with a whopping backup over gsm.

Hi..

So yes I have an S3 and it reboots like 2-3 times a day...

Also it usually does when the device gets very HOT!!!

Device is rooted and has Custom Recovery...

Please help!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0semaj0:
While you are new here, please follow forum rules as they are in place to ensure regularity for all users alike.

what ROM and Kernel are you using? checked OC settings? any additional apps running in the background without your knowledge? any recent apps you have installed?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
Thanks for replying quick.

I'm using Stock ICS 4.0.4

I'm not sure what you mean by Kernel as I'm new to androids, was an iOS user ..

How to check if apps are running without my knowledge?

Yes there are many apps I recenly got!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Get better battery stats from the play store, and let it run for a charge cycle.

Also turn off all the silly Samsung stuff like face awake etc etc

Does a reboot help?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
It reboots by itself...

And about it getting so hot ... gow do I fix that? It gets very very hot that I worry about that.

It's probably best to root and change the kernel, as my phone used to get too hot as well

Hi.

I had the same problem with one SGS3 from two I bought.

The one worked fine, but the second restart twice and more a day. I changed it in the shop. But the problem was still there. The akku was hot and after 2 hours without any input the akku was 0%.

I changed the phone the second time in the shop.

But also this device had the problems, sometimes the phone doesn't see the akku.

Then I had the idea, I looked into the device pressed the akku with my thumbnail and the akku worked.

With a little paper I fix the akku and everything is fine until today.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
I'm still confused, where did you put the paper?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
Put a piece of paper somewhere in the battery slot to prevent phone from random rebooting?

Is this a good solution? I'd suggest to claim your warranty. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
Yeah I'm going to unroot my device then go see what is the problem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brator:
I hope you can see the paper. This solution is not the best solution, but after driving 3 times to the shop and change the device twice it seems a low cost solution for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
Yes I see it... I think I'll give it to the shop to see what's the problem
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:

No random reboot!

It reboots here too, but only when connected to a HML adapter, can't play a game or watch a video for more then 5 mins till it basically crashes and reboots. Pissing me off to no end, and resetting the phone and starting from a blank slate did nothing for it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irmq8i:
I formattedy External SD Card and flashed Stock ROM and wiped all data and cache and till now it hasn't rebooted...

Hopefully it will remain like that!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chiraagt:
So the problem is as basic as the thread title suggests.. Does anyone have a solution for this? I am using the default inbuilt native Music Player app..

I am not majorly fussed about this problem over the headset as I normally have a button on the headset.. But the problem does arise when I am using the Aux wire option in my Car..

But the problem arises when I connect to Bluetooth in my Car daily.. I am listening to music and in the middle of a track I get a call.. As soon as the call ends most phone resume the music from exactly where it left off.. but in my case the music refuses to start again and my car stereo has no capability to force the music to play from the phone where it was last playing.. So the only solution for me is to press my SRC (Source) button on my system in my car and then it will basically force a restart on the music player in my phone which will restart the song that I was listening to.. Normally that wouldn't be a problem but I listen to many huge 1-2 hr long sets of music and the whole flow gets disrupted if I have to listen to it from the start again.. Moreover its a pain to try and get it back to where it was to begin with.. I don't understand why Samsung have made this option so difficult.. They can easily have an option either way each user prefers.. A simple setting like Resume music after call Yes or No!

Anyway I just want a solution to this situation.. I use tasker too if that helps but I am an absolute basic user.. Any kind of solution will do really... Although I am a bit of a newbie to all this I am willing to learn and figure it out.. Also I want to remain on the Stock Rom that I am using.. Thanks in Advance..

[LG Optimus 4X HD] muellersmattes:
I dropped mine onto a concrete floor today from ~1m height. A little scratch on the corner, that's all. Has anyone of you already been throwing it around? Also, how's your screen? Mine already has a few scratches, as i've been wearing it in the pocket without a case - thougt the Gorilla Glass could take it, but apparently i'm wrong. But it's not that bad.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] kovu94:
I give all my phones a protective cover on the screen. Also my old iPhones (3G/4) and my Lumia 800 with Gorilla Glas gets scratches after time. So I replace the screen cover every half year and the phones display stays free of scratches.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ianford10:
Totally agree, always have a screen protector on, even if they say the screen is bomb proof I would still apply one!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] delishnoodles:
I dropped mine when I was getting out of the car the other day (fell onto pink concrete because our driveway is weird) =__=;; and again when I was eating at a food court (forgot my head phones were in, got up to get some utensils)... I think there was a review out that said when the cover is disconnected, it turns off the phone but maybe I heard it wrong because it was fine and on when I picked it up. No scratches, no external injuries found :3

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
Okay so I was on Synergy 1.7 and Beans and I had GPS issues. The GPS would never lock on. I turned on Navigation and it would stay stuck on "searching for GPS". I Odined back to stock and same issue. So now I'm thinking I need to exchange it. Two questions tho.

1) will I need to contact Verizon or Samsung for the exchange?

2) I got this from a trade here in XDA. Will this affect me getting an exchange?

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Khishawn:
Well you can take it in to Verizon but I don't think they would exchange it, especially if you bought/traded/etc it from a third party. In my experience they would just claim it was abused or messed with by you or previous owner and offer to "fix" it for a price.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lazarus2405:
1. Verizon

2. I can't say.

Before you call up Verizon, though, I recommend you search the Synergy thread for a GPS fix. I remember someone working it all out, though I don't recall the specifics. I figure you'd rather go through that than swap devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
Yea the lead developer said if GPS issues continue, to flash back to stock. Flashed back to stock, still the same GPS issues as before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
You think it would make a difference if I left out the "I got this from a trade" part if I talk to them?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Khishawn:
As long as you didn't get it from them, they will most likely give you a hard time about exchanging it because if not from Verizon, you had to get it from a third party used :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
Damn that sucks. Maybe someone else can chip in. I'd like other opinions. I don't wanna be stuck with this GPS issue :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] morrichad:
Jay would try an app from the market and see if the app will get a lock on the gps. The app is GPS Test and run it to see if you get a lock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
Tried it. The first thing I tried. No luck :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mikeyfitz14:
Hey Jay,

I have actually done manufacturers warranty claims on phones that I have purchased through a 3rd party (eBay) a few times with Verizon. I don't offer up where I got the phone, but they don't generally ask either (in my experience). The phone should still be covered under the 1 year warranty with Samsung, Verizon just honors that warranty for you and ships out a different refurbished phone in its place. As long as you put a stock image back on your original phone before sending it back in you shouldn't have any problems.

Also, I usually tell them right up front that I "went into a store and worked with their tech support people who gave me this number to call to get a replacement phone. Already did 2 factory resets and checked that I had the latest software update and it didn't help at all." That usually helps to bypass all of the generic tech support questions that they ask and just get down to getting your new phone.

Hope this helps,

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:
Thank you so much. I'll try this out after I try a few other things to try to get my GPS to work. I'm currently completely stock so I'm hoping I find a way. So they send you the refurb phone and they give you like a box to send it back like Asurion does with insurance claims?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mikeyfitz14:
Yes, they send you a refurb phone and you keep your original battery, battery cover, sim, and SD Card. Then place the old phone back in the box and affix the return tag that was included with the replacement phone. It's super easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xXJay_RXx:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] demarcmj:
Yea, that is how Verizon handles it.

Does anyone know how Samsung would handle it if you try to go through them like the other guy suggested? I'm in the same boat and would rather return to Samsung than Verizon (I hate that Verizon gives me a used phone in exchange for a phone that I paid full price for and bought new). I feel like Samsung would want me to send the phone back to them first, which I cant really do because I need my phone and don't want to activate an older phone and lose my unlimited data.
[HTC Sensation] Micah Luca:
So money isn't a huge problem. My birthday is coming up next week and I can get a new phone...I want the galaxy note but i know asking for that expensive phone will cut into bigger gifts :D

I've seen the HTC Amaze, Samsung galaxy Blaze and the sensation on sale off and on throughout August and right now the Sensation is free on two year contract...

Is this a good buy?

i don't care about the latest and greatest with the processors and all that...I just want to know from Sensation owners

1. Is it a good buy and are you happy with your Sensation now in August 2012?

2. What is a good free texting App that allows texting through data? I heard Google voice is good but it does not allow MMS?

3. Should I hold out and see if maybe the Amaze or the Galaxy S Blaze will be back up for sales? I own a Nexus S 4g right now and I am not too fond of Samsung due to this crappy phone.

I missed the web only special for the Gs2 that was on sale for like 3 hours at midnight so I am not sure which to buy....

Any help would be nice.

Thanks

Micah!
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
In short, no.

The screen may be sharp but the viewing angles are bad and its colours are quite washed out. Also mine, like many other sensations, has loads of dust under the screen which makes it hard to use in sunlight.

The stock ROM that comes with the phone is full of crap and lets the sensation perform to around half its full potential - there is very good dev support however so u can flash a better rom if u so wish.

I know u said that u dont care about processors but u really should.. we are on the verge of a new processor architecture for android phones (A15) so tbh this is not a great time to buy any phone since it will be outdated in a few months time. At least go with something like snapdragon S4 though (found in htc one s) which is probably the best out atm - about equal with tegra 3. The sensation has snapdragon s3 which is now pretty outdated.

Also the stock battery is terrible in the sensation and u will probs find urself buying a 3rd party battery after a few months.

In my opinion go with an HTC One S... similar form factor but loads better. If u wanna spend less look at the galaxy s2.

Good texting app over data is whatsapp (u must of heard of it) its free on all smartphones.
[HTC Sensation] Micah Luca:
Thank you for the feedback!

Yeah the ONE S is Free On contract as well(with a 50 buck rebate)....I am so mad I missed the sell for the Samsung Galaxy S2 on Contract!

So you recommend the ONE S? Would the Amaze be a better fit than the Sensation or are they on par with one another? I heard the Amaze has a beautiful camera
[HTC Sensation] armandkd:
Same question

I haven't any dust or battery problem...

But it true that the stock ROM isn't very good...
[HTC Sensation] Micah Luca:
IS this the same phone that when you press home button it will always go back to the white HTC screen?

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/08/htc-onex-is-codenamed-the-htc-endeavor-2-says-stuff-magazine/

I love the Sensation, only problem I have with it is the speaker quality and the antennas are built into the back case. Also if you want faster download/upload speeds, the Sensation is capped at 14.4 Mbps while most other phones now are 42 Mbps
