If you really want a Nexus phone i would suggest you to wait for 1-2 months because next Nexus phone is just around the corner but if you can't wait that long then either get HTC One X (better camera + music + better more vivid screen and alot more quality build) rather than Galaxy S3. ;)

I recently got an LG headset and love it! But if my headset is on and connected and I get in the car, my hands-free won't connect until I turn the LG off and toggle my phones Bluetooth off and on.

Is there such an app to automate or govern all this connectivity priority. Obviously, the car should override the LG headset...

Thanks !

Windows 8 includes new feature called Windows To Go which allows you to run an instance of Windows 8 from a USB drive on any Windows 7 capable hardware without affecting any installation on that machine.

Here is complete step by step guide on how to Create and Use Windows 8 To Go USB
[Windows 8 General] e.mote:
Have you verified this to work with Win8 Pro RTM, as opposed to Win8 Ent (which has a much simpler procedure to create WTG)?
[Windows 8 General] hiqasim:
yup, Windows to go feature is available for all versions of Windows 8.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] reidzeibel:
As far as I know, The only way to try other governor is to create a custom kernel, because the governor code is built inside the kernel code.

I think this is now the only major deficiency in our device, having different kernels, governors and schedulers. I have a friend with GS2(AT&T) and he uses Pegasus governor with deadline scheduler on Siya Kernel, absolutely unbelievable battery life!!

it said "But hold the, uh, phone. Verizon was cited by PhoneScoop as saying that a future software upgrade would allow the phone to be used globally, on the 2G and 3G networks of carriers outside the US. That means somewhere inside the Verizon phone is a GSM radio. In turn, potentially that means your phone could be used on AT&T." im confused now:crying:

What could happen if I didn't unlock my bootloader and I install a CM10 non-kexec?:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
You would be in a boot loop. This is because CM10 requires a custom kernel, and if you didn't have kexec you'd have no kernel to use to boot it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GserMx:
its that fixable? because I already unlock my bootloader with EZ-unlock app but I'm not sure 100% if I unlock it

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Even with the bootloader unlocked, you can still use kexec if you want. As far as checking if the bootloader is unlocked, when you reboot the phone there should no longer be a pad lock of any kind.

I was thinking to flash a cm10 no-kexec with twrp2.2 recovery it's a good idea?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demaier:
Well I dont know if it was an app i downloaded or what because it did not start happening dirrectly after a download or installation but my phone about every week adds what appear to be app shortcuts to my desktop (launcher thing). one is titled Search and has a picture of the android guy. The other is always some game. These appear to be just links. Also in my notification bar, if i pull it down, there is an add there too. "Meet hot singles" was this week. Is there any app or method to detect which app is doing this? I already downloaded Adfree and Airblocker hoping that it would deny this suspicious activity.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
You may need an app called AirPush detector. I would start there. Otherwise, retrace your steps and uninstall whatever you have only had on the phone for a little while

I tried searching for this but could not find it, my apologies if it's out there.

I just bought a larger battery for my Galaxy S2 (Bell) running 4.1.1 (Resurrection Remix) and popped in the new battery (without powering off) and the phone will no longer boot. All I get is a battery charging symbol. I have tried booting into Odin and flashing a ROM but it is unsuccessful (<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)).

Looking for advice.. read about a 'jig' to reduce the count on the Odin screen so I can get a warranty replacement, but don't want to resort to that if I haven't exhausted other options.

Thank you kindly in advance for reading.. very annoyed at this :(

I have the old battery in, booted odin, tried to flash with both Kies and Odin, but Kies does not show the phone and Odin does not succeed, and I get the error I mentioned earlier.

Leave phone unplugged. Start Odin. Then plug in phone. Profit. This has worked for me in the past.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dunnski007:
I truly wish it were easy as this 'profit' you say :(

Unfortunately because the phone is not recognizing a charge in the battery, Odin won't launch unless it's plugged in. I also tried plugging it in, turning on Odin, and unplugging+replugging. This also did not work.

Right now it seems I might be looking at getting a 'jig' so that I can get a warranty covered replacement :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dunnski007:
I guess patience and luck worked out in my favour.

I unplugged the phone overnight (I guess it removed any kind of residual charge remaining in the phone) and was about to go to a store to see if the motherboard had perhaps been shorted by a bad battery, put the phone and backing back on, the phone lit up and so did my face.

So.. with this stroke of luck I'll just say thanks to the two who responded and hopefully no one else has this same issue (or any other issue for that matter)

The title pretty much says it all...

I'm using a HTC Sensation XE.

When I download / update apps through Google Play and my screen times out and turns off - the downloads stop. Sometimes the downloads won't resume once I turn my screen back on.

This doesn't happen on any of my other Android devices and was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? It is annoying because I have to keep the phone awake if I am updating a few apps at a time.

This has always happened with this phone, before and after root. I realise I could extend my display sleep time, but would like it to work like my other devices.

Cheers

Did you set your "Keep WIFI on during sleep" as "Never" or "Only when plug in", if so, when screen timeout, wifi will be turned off.

Yes, can be the wifi automatically turned off... but in this case the 3G/Edge take the connexion... I am wrong ?
[HTC Sensation] lachy.au:
Thanks for the replies.

The 'keep WiFi on during sleep' is and always has been enabled. This is only a minor annoyance really as I only have to manually keep the screen on for a short time while the apps update. Just thought its strange and maybe other had the same problem.
[HTC Sensation] jimmy.caille:
Maybe the screen must be turned on to GooglePlay starts downloading the applications, and then continues when the screen turns off... (When you install apps directly from https://play.google.com/store)

But can't start directly if the screen is off ?

[HTC Sensation] bofis:
+1 to revive this thread...though I have a Droid4 running ICS, I experience the same exact issue. Hitting update all works if I keep the screen on the entire time, but the second the screen times out, all downloads cease and just sit there with endless progress bars until I stop and restart them. This is using mobile data, plugged in, without wifi even turned on. I feel this must be a bug with the Play Store itself as it's happening across devices and roms.

I have the weirdest problem with my s. I plugged in my phone to load some files from work and it only pulled the SD storage partition not the internal phone partition. I unplugged the phone and checked and the phone itself only shows the SD side. I have done everything with the exception of a factory reset but can't get it to show. Now everything runs as it should but can't see the internal.

Plugged the phone in 2 days ago everything was fine. The only hickup I have had with this phone so far is yesterday when I went to the google store it told me I had to add an account. It had been a while since I reset so I restarted the phone and everything seemed fine. But it probably had something to do with this.

Any ideas?

Apps and messages aren't that important. Sorry this is a new one for me. Any information will help.
