Yes, it's true.

It's also true for your ram too, so don't start a new thread asking that question

Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII

Have tried a few different ROMs and experience random reboots. In order to power back up and remain on (not reboot again) the phone needs to be plugged in. Any ideas? Unroot and return to stock to test the problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
What ROM are you currently on? Do you have USB Debugging enabled? I had that issue when my phone was in Air plane mode or not signal. Maybe a deep sleep script issue with the ROM or Kernel. But since you have tried different ROMs, have you tried a different kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdefran:
I was first on AOKP, switched to stock EL 26. Haven't tried different kernels.

USB debugging is enabled. My service is piss poor often
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Maybe try Stock el29 with hitman 1.4.1 kernel. Then flash FF18 modem in CWM. make sure you update profile and PRL after you flash the new modem.
[Asus Transformer TF700] indiscriminant:
Has anyone else had Touchscreen issues? I have the pattern unlock on my tablet but when I go to use it the screen is acting like I am touching it in other places. This has been resolved by rebooting a couple times, but I shouldn't have to do that to unlock my tablet. If it does let me in then it starts clicking randomly (typically towards the top right).

Trying to see if this is a common issue that I should address with a swap out or if there is another reason that could be causing this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] hkusp40cal:
I had the "phantom" touch issue on my Tf300, it was the digitizer going bad, had to send it back to Asus for repair.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] preusstang:
For what its worth:

I called *611 today finally to complain to verizon about dropped calls. I get wayyy worse voice signal with the GS3 than I did with my old DX. In fact I've had more dropped calls in the past 36 days than I have in the past 6 years with verizon (~30 so far with this phone). Btw, VRALG modem made no difference.

I was told that this is an ongoing issue and that Samsung is officially prepping another OTA to improve the radio signal but (of course) has no ETA.

I was also told to dial "###" and press send immediately after I have a dropped call (before calling the other party back.) This flags the last call as dropped and alerts verizon of my location, what tower dropped the call, etc.

I was told this would automatically open a trouble ticket. If you can flag multiple calls relatively shortly (a couple days) and then call customer service again, they will be able to offer the most help (hopefully by sending you some new hardware!!!)

Heres to hoping for better better radio update or a new GS3!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Must be location related as i have only had 2 dropped calls since recieving my device on 7/12.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
BTW this is not "another" OTA. We never got a first one lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] preusstang:
what about the VRALG update? with the new modem and kernel. I assumed it was OTA cause everyone was saying not to accept it. I never received it but I took the modem when invisiblek uploaded it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sccrluk9:
This will be the second one. Unless you got your phone from the perorder it came with an 'updated' sticker on it which was already updated to the new radios.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chamberc:
I got mine from the pre-order and have never gotten an OTA... Just checked and it said no update available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Like stated, it was never a actual ota since verizon didnt release it over the air...certain devices after x date were shipped with the vralg1 software...other than the dumbed down search, there is no significant difference between vralf2 & vralg1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tekhna:
It's not about location. This phone drops calls. I was talking to my dad (we both have GS3s), he was in NYC and I was in Portland. We both had to call back because our phones both dropped calls. I've dropped calls in Minnesota, Portland, San Francisco and Michigan. I know he's dropped calls in Minnesota, Miami, and New York.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chris98891:
I'm glad other people are having this too...I hadn't heard much about it but my phone is dropping calls like that's its job.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jasonxlee01:
Shoot. Delete this please. Posted in wrong thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigfdaddy2:
My phone hasn't dropped calls but I'm lucky to be able to place one or use data much. It constantly fluctuates from 4 bars to 1x and vice versa.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Huh....well my device must be one of a kind lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rushless:
I have not had a dropped call on any device with Verizon, but did on a normal basis with TMobile.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] F'n Amazing:
+1 on the **** reception and dropped calls list. i have very noticeably worse reception, and rarely if ever dropped calls @ my place with my incredible, now they drop 2 or 3 times a conversation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
No dropped calls yet, but in a big market
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Never dropped a call here.

I love how whenever a new phone comes out, these threads follow...

*sigh*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] onthewall:
Yep, it sucks... I had a dropped call today while in my office, using a network extender. Ironically, it's a Samsung made unit as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
No dropped calls here either. Been up and down NJ (NYC to Philadelphia and down the shore). Holding a steady 4G connection is a different story sometimes though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jnisme:
I too have had more dropped calls since getting my S3 than I have over the past 3 years with my Droid 1 combined. Verizon even exchanged my first S3 for a new one, but the problem remains. This phone does everything except reliably act as a phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
all I know is in Pittsburgh it's a miracle to get over 5 mb down and I'm pissed off. I switched from T-Mobile cause Verizon speeds are suppose to be so out of this world. I got double the speeds on T-Mobile so called fake 4g network.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bitz69:
My first phone dropped calls like crazy and had data issues, Verizon replaced it and this one is a ton better.it was upgraded to the new modem if that matters.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] danstar:
The radios on this phone are bad, but not as bad as they were on the nexus I had. I've replaced sim card and I've tried the G1 modem. The new sim card has helped some, but the G1 modem did nothing. Download/upload speeds are really bad. When I can connect to wifi, I do because the data speeds are so low and most of the time it drops completely out. I certainly hope when and if this ota that is supposed to deal with this issue comes out it does. I haven't had dropped calls, but have had more than one occasion where I couldn't hear the person on the other end and they couldn't hear me. Samsung needs to do something to improve these radios or there is going to be an uproar. Why make a phone as great as this one could be, but have such poor radios.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] preusstang:
Maybe if your GSIII dropped your calls 3-4 times a day and cut out in places your last phone had good signal in..

You do not believe in manufacturing errors? what about the people who have devices with power buttons popping off.

I think there is legitimately something wrong with my voice radio
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
I'm glad to hear VZW and Samsung are finally taking it seriously. I've been through two S3's. Original and updated devices. Voice has been improved, slightly, with the update but data speed blew dog until I put Synergy on it.

When I made it to an area that actually has 4g, the ****ing thing couldn't hold onto it to save it's life. 3-4 bars with 4g and the **** sucker would fall back to 3g and stay there.

Seriously, they need to fix this ****.

Thanks all who complained to VZW about this and brought it to their attention. Mucho appreciado.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lazymoonc:
I write a android program to control wifi with java code.The app catch the necessary informations like 'ssid' or 'password',and send them to the 'wpa' to start the wifi network.There are some native methods to achieve functional,and the app call them with JNI.

At first,when calling the wifi_start_supplicant(in wifi.c) method there are some logs show " Cannot set RW to "/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf': Permission denied '.First I just give the wpa_supplicant.conf 777 permission,but the error was still happened.Then I all the folder on the Path 777 permission,the error disappeared after that.

But there's another error came: Failed to start supplicant daemon. No such file or directory.Then I search the source code of android 4.0.1.r1,and find that there's a code segment（in wifi.c）：pi = __system_property_find(SUPP_PROP_NAME);and the SUPP_PROP_NAME is " init.svc.wpa_supplicant ".I found the init.svc.wpa_supplicant is a service,so I use the adb shell to set it "running" with command "setprop init.svc.wpa_supplicant 'running'"before I run the program.After this step the error was disappear.

But there's a new error came,logs show: Unable to open connection to supplicant on "/data/system/wpa_supplicant/wlan0": Connection refused.And I find some ways to solve this problem on the link:

blog.linuxconsulting.ro/2010/04/porting-wifi-drivers-to-android. html

I follow all the steps on this link,except so change about the wifi.c,because compiled the wifi.c will get a libhardware_legacy.so,and this so file will crash my phone while it push into /system/lib.

I try both android private socket and unix standard socket to connect to supplicant,but all I try just had a same result: Unable to open connection to supplicant on "/data/system/wpa_supplicant/wlan0": Connection refused

In this step I make sure the wap_supplicant and dhcpcd were starting from init.rc with the interface of wlan0,and setprop the wifi.interface as "wlan0".I had seen the file in /proc/net/dev,and I sure the wlan0 is mark on the file(dev).

Above is all my work and procedure with my transplantation of wifi,the problem of"Unable to open connection to supplicant .... Connection refused " is still confused me,is there some ways can solve that?

Thanks a lot anyway!

Hi, were you able to find the cause of this problem. I am facing the similar issue now.

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] mfflannery:
Once I heard about the official Rezound OTA update to ICS, I relocked and RUU'ed my phone to bone stock setup, and ran the OTA. Now I'm on 4.0.3, and everything works fine. The only problem:

When I search for Instagram on the Play Store, I get this message at the top of the Instagram page: "! Your device isn't compatible with this version." and I can't install it. It worked fine on GB. Has anyone else had a similar problem?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
I just installed the latest base with the weekend patch and it installed fine for me.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
My problem with Instagram is that I can't upload pictures...it freezes up my phone until reboot. I've seen people with other phones with this problem too. I think it's an ICS issue.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petch777:
Well when jelly bean comes along (likely to be end of august, I think 29th is rumoured for ota update) there will be no flash support. This is a known fact and I think its to do with tying to boost html5 use on the interent. This is what i've read and been told but it won't be too bad without flash
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dav_prime:

but there will be no official support for it.

I will make a backup in titanium and install it after the update. My hope is this will allow things to be seamless whilst waiting for websites to pull their fingers out rather then having to swear at my phone when I cant get access to the content I want.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rs70:
Hi,

my brother has recently got an Xperia P with Orange SK branding and the phone has issues with Google Play. More precisely the phone can't install or update applications downloaded via Play store - it's initializing download until it throws an error window.

I've tried clearing GPlay cache, delete data in Google Services Framework. Also tried it with uninstalled updates and cleared Dalvik cache.

The rom was originally from Orange Slovakia, but then I unlocked bootloader, rooted it and now it's running probably US version (idk exactly, but it came with Music Unlimited pre-installed and I think that's US only). The possibly US rom was .564, but then I relocked bootloader to update it to the latest version and repaired it via SEUS. But still no luck...

Applications downloaded out of Play Store install nicely and work without problems. I've got over tens of threads and forums, but couldn't find any help. I relocked the bootloader, so that the phone could be taken back to Orange, but it would feel really awkward to come with a problem like that...

Or should I wait for ICS which should be available in next couple of days?

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Have you working wifi internet or right apn?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rs70:
There's no problem with wifi. I've tried two different wifis, both secured with just WEP, and everything works just fine. Browser works flawlessly and applications have no trouble downloading data as well.

Google Play application is up-to-date (version 3.7.13). Should I try older version?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Elwino2.3:
Try to clear proxy!

Go to setting > Wireless and network > Mobile Network > Acess point name > "select your APN" > Tap proxy and delete all the number
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rs70:
Thanks a lot!

I don't know how or why it works, but it worked even though the phone doesn't have a data plan.

I cleared the proxy as you said, but the problem remained. Fortunately, I turned the phone to Airplane mode and FC'd and wiped cache on Play Store and FC'd and deleted data from Google Services Framework and rebooted. And it worked!

Thank you very much! The absence of Play store was really frustrating and limiting...

Custom Rom

Hello,

Is anyone willing to work on a Android 4.2 Custom Rom?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennisfisch:
Hey there, i have tried gathering information about this subject and it seems all threads always lead to this announcement:

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/06/29/galaxy-s-iii-new-mhl-connector-also-enables-usb-on-go/

Short: Samsung have changed to an 11 Pin-out to enable USB OTG and MHL Hdmi out at the same time. I purchased an original HDTV Adapter (EPL-3FHUBEGSTD) which as far as i can reliably count indeed has about 11 connectors inside the USB connector that goes into the phone.

Now, i can get HDMI out just fine, but ONLY when i also connect the MHL adapter to a power source (a PC USB Port will do fine), however i have also read, that the phone is able to power the MHL adapter itself but obviously would not be charged then (no surprises there). This does not work however.

Further, connecting a USB OTG cable to the micro usb port on the MHL adapter does nothing. No notification and no devices connecting. No power either, since the LED on my USB Hub does not light up as it should. Connecting any devices to the hub does nothing to change that situation. If i leave out the MHL adapter and connect the USB OTG cable directly to the phone, everything works perfectly. I have tried this with 2 different OTG cables so they are not the problem.

This is an original genuine HDTV Adapter for our phones, which according to that post should be working fine with USB OTG.

AFAIK, this topic --does-- come up more frequently now as i can find a few more discussions about it, albeit none really helpful:

http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...-of-11-pin-mhl-connector-in-samsung-galaxy-s3

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743128

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-Definition_Link#11-pin_MHL-USB_Connector

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1811435

That wiki entry is the most interesting link as it definitely states that using MHL and USB OTG simultaneously is possible and is also the reason why the 5 pin layout was changed to an 11 Pin layout.

Looking forward to reading your replies!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mertzi:
the ability to use MHL and OTG simultaneously would give the S3 so much more purpose. It is powerful enough to replace a desktop computer used only for light stuff like browsing and watching videos, and even simple gaming. If samsung made a dock like the one for the motorola atrix I'm convinced they will broaden their target group. The atrix got everything right with this but is inferior hardware wise. I love the idea of a one device for everything concept. Unfortunately it doesn't rhyme very well with the growth society.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunglebp:
Love the MHL and the OTG is even better only after I got the correct cables as the cables changed on S3 to the S2 version, unlimited space for watching films on my phone is now awesome and even better connecting it to to the TV just need a good dock,
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennisfisch:
is there perhaps any expert advise on this? According to multiple sources it should work but really doesnt. Did i buy the wrong mhl adapter?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryville:
I think they will only both work together when being used with an MHL enabled tv. That way the power comes from the tv and the usb on the adapter can be used for the usb-otg cable.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joysleep:
But if i connected the MHL with the s3. Would sound come out of my phone AND my TV or just my TV. If it justs comes out of my TV, then can i hook up my bluetooth headphones and listen to my video or it would not allow me?

Thanks

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joysleep:
It wasnt clear.

No1 knows the actual answer to this questions. Really frustraing
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mertzi:
Ah ok sorry! Afaik you should be able to choose your headphones as primary audio source in the bluetooth settings. I know I can choose what I want to be output to my bluetooth headset, but I don't own an MHL adapter so I don't know about that. Someone with one should be able to try it, and if they don't own a bluetooth headset/pair of headphones they could try with wired ones and see what happens.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmcgee:
I have recently received an MHL connector (5 pin type) and the samsung 11 to 5 pin adapter for it. I can confirm that if I plug my OTG cable into it, and then into my powered USB hub, I can get the MHL to work just fine, both video and audio. The OTG cable powers it just fine, but does NOT allow me to use other devices attached to the USB hub. :(

I am still researching. I suspect you need to bring all 11 pins off the phone with a splitter of some sort, or possibly wire data lines through the MHL. Probably not with the 5 pin MHL connector and 11 to 5 pin adapter, but with the full 11 pin MHL adapter. I am not up to that level of hardware hacking. I suspect whoever does it first can sell a BUNCH of them!

Oh, and I have a Moto Lapdock for my Raspberry Pi, and would love to hook my S3 to it too!

DO NOT

complicate this with the screen separation issue, my device does not have this issue.

When on a black screen when pressing the devices screen, it does not have to be hard just medium, the screen will flex causing the display below to ripple. It reminds me of the HTC One X screen flex issue at the top ends of the device where it was curved.

I have made a video showing my findings, I know at times it looks like I'm pressing extremely hard on the screen, I'm not its just because I was on a soft surface and so the device pushed into the bed. :angel:

I saw what you meant once in that video, but it did look like you pressed pretty hard. I tried to replicate it to no avail. Sorry. :(
[Nexus 7 General] jaaystott:
I know I know, honestly though I promise you I was not pressing hard. Honest truth I noticed this issue because I held the device with one hand, and I was NOT pushing hard.
